significantly better than season one

I remember watching the first season to this and not understanding the hype. A lot of the show overall I didn’t understand, so with this addition I wasn’t expecting anything amazing. This season adds upon what was their and makes it better, developing characters further and relationships as well

Hira and Kiyoi never had a perfect relationship and I understand that because of how it started. Hira worships Kiyoi and sees him as untouchable.. in the first season it was just that with them really getting together at the end. This season they are already together and instead of just them being in a relationship, it’s them growing together in their relationship.

Hira is finding himself with his work and how he sees Kiyoi, because it isn’t a one sided love anymore. I was frustrated about him but by the end of the drama that’s what kept me watching. Kiyoi honestly developed feelings for Hira and I don’t understand them completely but I get that I never will and maybe am not supposed to. They both have this love and appreciation for eachother that belongs to only them, it’s their bond and they barely can grasp their feelings themselves.

Kiyoi is much more likeable here when you see that admist him succeeding in life and ‘remaining the same’ he is very different. You see him really stay interested in Hira and blush with explicitly telling Hira that he liked him. The obstacle here is that Hira is stuck with the one sided love that he accepted, and the resolution to that was one of the best scenes to me. Kiyoi is just cute- and isn’t as hot headed, he’s humbled. He’s more open about his feelings and isn’t ashamed of how he feels either.

They both put effort into each others lives and opposed to season one, I now understand the first season a lot more. This drama had great acting, visuals, it’s just really good. I’m sad it was so short but am looking forward to the movie.
