It's cute but...
I started watching this show because I heard it was pretty cute. Good news? It is. Bad news? It leaves a little more to be desired.
The first half of the show was fairly light and cute. The boys have good chemistry and the acting is decent. If this show was a little shorter, I'd say it could have been enjoyable with no real storyline and just fluff, but at 8 eps it feels like a little more than fluff needed to happen, which it does, but the plot points that were brought up just weren't executed well in the time given. With 8 eps I think they could have covered everything properly if the writing had been better. The fight between Ray/Ah Jian felt rushed especially because it didn't feel like the reason Ray was mad in the first place was fleshed out and the stuff with Ye Guang's parents felt like it was glossed over. A better writer could have made it work with 8 eps, this writer would have needed at leat 12.
I wasn't as interested in the second half as I was in the first half, but overall the series is cute. The guys are cute. They have good chemistry. I liked that the dynamic between the leads was different than your usual BL (the taller one is the soft cute one), loved the supportive mom, and the OST is really nice. Definitely worth a watch if you're just looking for something cute.
