Overall 5.0

Acting/Cast 8.0
Music 1.0
Rewatch Value 1.0
I started watching this series because of Newyear (one of the very few actors that I know are gay and play in a BL series) and because I wanted to watch something light after so many sad bl series I've watched.

POSITIVE
- The show is entertaining, but the story is simple and stereotipical.
- The acting is really good in my opinion (even tho the characters aren't the most complexed).
- Because of the short episodes, it is really easy to watch and you actually feel kind of intrigued on whats gonna happen.

NEGATIVE
-The music is horribly boring. I want you to know that a good song in the right moment can change a scene almost completely, but this show barely has ANY songs and that turns me off a bit. There were scenes were I was thinking "Oh, this would have been much more emotional with a different song". And thinking constantly about that often drives my attention off the series.
-The edition and production / camara work (?) is STATIC. Like literally static. There are no close ups or any interesting movements with the camera, not even the basic ones. I've never been someone that pays too much attention to these details, so I was surprised when I found myself being disappointed about these things.

OVERALL
It's more or less entertaing and there are only 5 eps, so if you want give it a go. However, don't expect much and keep in mind it's a simple story. If you are looking for something with deep characters or plot, this is not for you.
