Refreshing BL storyline
A major departure from the usual high school/university romance which is extraordinarily refreshing. I like that the production adopts a more mainstream approach for a gay romance with a touch of fantasy and history. Major improvement in acting for Daou and Offroad in comparison to Love in Translation. I like that there aren't other love stories conflated into the series which would have taken the spotlight off of the main couple and diluted their storylines. Instead, their method of introducing and integrating the side (but significant) secondary characters is superb. Great comedic values from the series especially given that it is meant to be a soapy drama (love the goofy villains). Cinematography is also good. Love the colours. There weren't many iconic songs made popular by the series, but the music/background instrumentals chosen were top notch. They added so much sentimental values to each scene and episode. Overall, a superb drama series. I have already watched it twice. Will definitely watch it again when I need a dose of laughter and Daou+Offroad!
