A Great BL Drama Focusing on the Behind-the-Scenes of a Production Company
I was looking forward to OffGun's new series! And this series turned out to be a very well-done "workplace drama."
The story unfolds from Gun's character Ryan's perspective.
It was really enjoyable to watch Ryan, who initially had no specific dreams or goals, slowly discover the meaning of his presence in the workplace, work hard, and grow through his daily job. And Off's character Jane was incredibly charming.
Off has played many roles so far, but I think this cold, seemingly aloof but actually kind and sincere character suits him the best, and it's my favorite portrayal of his.
However, in the latter half, Jane made Ryan anxious by not expressing his thoughts at all, so I wished that part had been explained more.
Also, I wasn’t a fan of the plotline where the trainee Jane was mentoring fell in love with him during the training period.
Speaking of which, the relationship between the trainee Ba-Mhee and her mentor Judy also developed into romance.
Honestly, from an ethical standpoint, this part of the story was uncomfortable to watch.
That said, it was still a great drama, showing young people who initially didn’t know what they wanted or what their real dreams were, eventually finding goals and dreams as they worked with professionals, and growing into accomplished individuals over three months.
My favorite characters are Pah and Pie.
These two were really well-written, relatable young people who faced their jobs and their friends' problems earnestly, without being forced into romantic relationships.
I really liked that.
Thanks to this drama, I learned a lot about how production companies work.
I hope more dramas focusing on professions like this, not just love and relationships, will be made in the future.
