Most well acted Korean BL I've watched so far

I came in thinking I wouldn't be interested in the storyline to be honest. While there isn't anything super dramatic or fantastical in this series, I actually realized I preferred it that way. It portrays an honest romance without cringey slow motion or cheesy lines that you get in korean dramas and bl dramas. The acting feels super natural and both actors do really well to portray different ranges of emotions and the development of their relationship. I love how their personalities seem to clash together in the beginning, but they end up finding comfort with one another in the end. It makes my heart so warm! I also like how it's not a typical coming out/or gay existential crisis series as sexual orientation is never mentioned here. The same story could be said if it was between a man and a woman. Other cliches in BL or nonexistent here, like the annoying girl who is in love with one of the guys or the parents disapproving of their sons' relationship. The only sad thing is hows it's so short, but I'm also excited because there's going to be a season 2 soon! I hope it lives up to the first season.
