Dont rely on REVIEWS.
I wouldn't say anything detailed here, all I can say is watch it for yourself to know and to see it for yourself.The connection of EACH character is so good, like EVERY character has their sense. You'll get mixed emotions. See for u to know.
The cast? Their acting is phenomenal. Jihoon and Sangwoo NAILED IT. I love Lomon and Yeeun so much, but Jihoon and Sangwoo? Danggg, these two.
Tbh, I somehow get why some peeps said the ending was unsatisfying and a bit disappointing. But for me, personally, I love it. Just a right ending for this kind of drama.
Watch it to see, dont rely on reviews.

This is just too cute to be true.. ?
I will not write anything crazy or long about this series but all I want say is that.. this is just the right amount of everything in one series. I guess just a little too much in terms of love and sweetness but you we love that ?This series made me fell for BL series again. Its been so long since I last watched BL series and this as my coming back BL serie? Just perfect. Zero toxicity, Zero red flags, Zero stressed in this drama tbh. Just pure love and friendship. I love this drama so much. A must watch, indeed.
Ps. if I could give 1000 for music, I would. Really.

Chemistry is phenomenal but story... ehhh
I personally think that one of the biggest factors why people liked this is because of the loveteams' chemistry. Tbh, story-wise, this series isn't the best but also not the worst, I would say. Through how realistic the casts in terms of acting & expressing 'love', this series worked. But let me break down this series...STORY:
Ngl, I have to agree with what others are saying; it is somewhat questionable(?) And another thing I have to agree with is that why all Mame's stories have to go like this, having questionable things in it. Idk why, tbh haha.
Bestfriends being inlove with another set of bestfriends, what a thing haha.
I dont hate how the story goes but at the same time, I got confused and sometimes questioned myself about the things happening. Like at first you'll feel giggly coz' of the characters' interaction but as it goes by, things get a bit off for me. I also dont understand why ppl think that PayuRain is the main and PrapaiSky is just a side couple where story-wise, the 2nd one is more interesting and somehow has more meaning to it. (Just being honest here..)
What I like about the overall story? Tbh, idk either, I just feel like watching it til' the end haha.
ACTING/CASTING:
I think this is where the whole series gets interesting and captivating; the casts.
The chemistry of BN and FP as PayuRain and PaiSky is just so good. How Payu looks at Rain in the series have no difference on how Boss looks at Noeul. Same as how Pai is so affectionate towards Sky is like how Fort is being clingy to his P'Peat. What I mean is I think character-wise, the casts are meant for their characters, indeed. The acting? Not perfect but still effective.
MUSIC:
Nothing too special but just right for the series. (Note: the scene where Payu sang makes the ost somehow cute hehe)
REWATCH VALUE:
Rewatching this is okay, just skip the NC scenes haha. But as someone who barely rewatch shows, yeah.. I'll maybe rewatch some scenes but not the whole series.
OVERALL:
For me, this series is 'okay' overall hehehe.
Ps. Pai is a green flag BUT only to Sky ?

This is good but not perfect.
After watching it, I do understand why ppl loved and hated it all at the same time. Tbh, the first few episodes was so good, you will literally get hooked and will definitely stay to know more. But I have to agree with what other reviews have said, in the latter part of the story, idk but it get so confusing & a bit annoying at the same time.STORY: (I haven't read the novel so this is base on my understanding in the series itself)
Tbh, the story is fantastic but not perfectly executed. Idk if its really the goal of the series, to make us all confused and annoyed but that's how I felt especially on the last 4(?) episodes. Also the ending felt too rushed or is it just me?.
I guess what I like abt the most in this storyline is how it is connected together and being polished in the end. I would say; trust issues will really hit you rock hard here in this series.
ACTING/CASTING: One word; spectacular.
The actors and their acting really did blend together so well esp Bible and Build. Dont get me wrong, I love how Mile and Apo portrayed Kinn and Porsche but I have to agree with others that BibleBuild nailed this one so much.
I do know that this wasn't the original cast for KP, some have been changed.. but tbh, the casts who have portrayed it now, NAILED IT so much.
MUSIC: Iconic.
Free Fall & Why Don't You Stay? Unforgettable?
FOR THE REWATCH VALUE: its still up to u tbh.
But for me, this kind of series is good for one time only. Maybe, will rewatch some scenes but not the whole series.
OVERALL REVIEW — is it worth the watch? Yes.
As a BL fan for a long time, I can say that 'so far' this has the BEST mix of genres in a series esp in the aspect of Action. But still I have to stand for my say that; Yes, this series is good but its not perfect. Why? Watch it to know :))
Ps. I entered as Apo biased, got out with Bas ?

Better Than Expected.
Dashing Youth is a prequel of The Blood of Youth, which I personally became interested before. Some might say that it's better if you watch this first before TBOY, I agree, it's literally the start of everything. But also, I understand those whose glad that they watched TBOY first before this one, it's like a throwback in everything that happened in TBOY and an answer in why things that happened in TBOY, happened. But in my case, luckily, I haven't finished watching TBOY when I discovered Dashing Youth, because for me, it's better to start from where all things have happened.Sadly, I already knew that Ye Dingzhi died because it was already told in TBOY, that's entering this series was a bit of a road for me knowing that I will truly root for his character.With the casting being one of the most beautiful line of actors is a plus points for me. I love how the Eight Young Masters of Beili have their own distinct classifications and power that make them unique from each other. I love Xiao Ruofeng so much, his vibe at first was a bit off for me, but once this man smiled, I knew he is a good man, like what the people around him always tell him, he's too kind and nice. Neo Hou is very good at playing as Baili Dongjun, from the first time I watched him, he definitely improved in his acting. But I want to give my full applause to He Yu, he gave Ye Dingzhi justice. I root for his character, even though I question his decisions sometimes. I just hope that Xia Zhiguang's Sikong Changfeng was given more screen time, but overall, he's character was engaging and his chemistry with Baili Dongjun is amazing. The overall set up of this serie are good, CGI is always on-point. But I kinda hate some aspects about the obvious green/blue screen. Like I know they can make it better when it comes to the editing. Also, its a bit disappointing because I feel like all the fight scenes of this show mostly relies on CGI, like we don't get to see more of the moves of our characters. But overall, it worked so good one on that part.
But here's one thing that was a huge let down of this series; the love line, the romance. To be honest, I am really not a huge fan of romance inclined series, especially when it comes to hanfu/wuxia dramas like this that focuses on roaming around martial arts world. Some series made it work, like there is a hint of romance, yet it doesn't overpower the real purpose of the show. But this one is not the case. The romance made it all worst, especially in Ye Dingzhi's case. Come to think of it, you're one of the strongest the martial arts world can have, but your life will be a wasted because of a lady who doesn't even know how to fight for herself. Imagine, everything was because of you? It honestly pisses the hell out of me. I moved or skipped a lot of times because of how some ladies in this show doesn't make any sense, at all. Only Lei Mengsha's wife and Baili Dongjun's lover have, somehow, a purpose here as a lady of a man. The rest, just ruined it, for me.
The ending. The ending is perfect for me, esp when you haven't watched TBOY, it's a good opening for everything. Some may say that it's an open ending but for me, it's perfect. Even though I am sad about Ye Dingzhi's death, his death represents a lot of aspects.
Overall, this series is good. Not the best but definitely not the worst. Still lacks in a lot of aspects, and as someone who watched a lot of hanfu/wuxia drama, this is a mediocre one. A good watch, still.

SUCH A GOOD WATCH.
This show was really hyped up that's why I decided to watch this. Tbh, there is nothing too special about this. Also according to people who actually read the novel this is based into, this originally a BL one. As a BL fan, that is already a minus to me. Just imagine how will it turned out if they really made it same as what in the original story is, maybe, just maybe it might be better. We dont know.This is a good watch but not something special that you'll prioritize to watch. Something is just not filling up in this show.

JaeChan did a great job!
As a ForX and BL fan at the same time, I became very excited when that JaeChan will star in a KBL serie. Ngl, I already lowered my expectation since for sure sweet moments will be lessen because of the fact that they are in the same group. (Already expected as well that there will be no kissing scene, will get shocked if there will be honestly haha)But tbh, JaeChan delivered! They made me feel such things and their chemistry did work, surprisingly! As one of the oldest and the maknae of Omega X, their chemi really did worked and I rooted for their on-screen couple thing.
Going to the story and the entirety of the serie, its not the best. I feel like if it wasn't rushed to 7 episodes and put I guess 1-2 eps before the ending, people might like this more. I feel like the build up was good but suddenly got low when the story felt so rushed. Nice tackling of some serious issues, but I hope they further let the characs interact more or let their story grow.
The last episode? Ngl, I didn't feel that much sweetness, ITS NOT ENOUGH ?. I feel like the crew and makers of these show can give us more even if without kissing scene, but yeah. Also it kinda got confusing in the end.
But still, its a good KBL. Sweetness is there, JaeChan worked so well. I liked how Jaehan played Dayeol's naiveness and cuteness and how Yechan played such a complicated charac of Taehyun, for the cast? They did well. (The one who playes WonKyung did a great job, his smile pissed me off big time).
Overall, this is still a good watch. Just dont expect too much. Thats it, peace!

Pure fluff, cuteness and love.
As someone who stopped watching 'Girl x Boy loveteam' type of series (became a BL and GL fan for a long time), Hidden Love is a great comeback. Just pure fluff. A lot of very relatable scenes and also scenes that can make the viewers believe (somehow) in love again.Both Duan Jiaxu and Sang Zhi was written perfectly, "green flag couple" indeed. Now I understand why people are really hooked up by Zheyuan and Lusi's chemistry, they worked. Their chemistry is just top-tier. Love these two so much, really. But in this drama? I fell in love truly to Victor Ma, SANG YAN!! He is just an overall relatable character, I love him so much.
Story wise, tbh, nothing new. I guess what really made this drama stand out was everything inside this drama worked out so well. From casts to story, up to the execution, its really good. But yeah, when it comes to the story, I am not too stunned or what.
Overall, this is such a good watch. It will bring back lots of butterflies on your stomach. Watch this, its worth it, really! ?

Not the best, but also not that bad.
I have been watching this for almost a month now, and that explains how the series went for me. Its a good one. It started so strong, like the way Li Bing's character was being introduced and the introduction of Li Bing and Qingzhi's past friendship was good. But gradually getting a bit boring at the middle part to the near end, it feels like a lot is happening but nothing is happening all at the same time. Yes, its cases after cases, but tbh, some cases they solved wasn't even solved clearly and got me so confused. Tbh, the last 2 episodes caught me back liking this.One thing that is commendable in this series was the cast. Casts is so good, the way their chemistry worked and seeing myself rooting for their journey is just amazing, esp Yuxi and Miles, love them.
Will definitely miss the gang. Overall, this is somehow still a good watch. Not the best but also, not a bad one.

ONE OF THE BEST K-BLs, MUST WATCH!
Its really true, K-BLs are getting better, dang!I mean, from the storyline to the chemistry of the pairing up to the kissing scenes, ohh.
I am happy that even though its still a short 8 episode series, the amount of mins. per ep isn't that short as what's happening before. You can truly tell that SoKor is starting to invest and give more time in producing quality K-BLs.
The castinggg??!! TOP TIER! Taevin and Joowan's chemistry? Dang, they worked. Taevin's charisma as the funny ganster-ish Myungah and Joowan's duality as the cold turning soft boy Yeowoon, damn, these two played it like a fire. Woongki and Minsu added a great kick to the story, even with a small screentime, they made a cute impact.
THE ACTING?? TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL. I swear, they made me cry with 'that' break up scene.
Honestly talking, as a BL fan in such a long time, since K-BL arise, I find it hard to find a K-BL that would give me 'that kind of feels', you know. BUT THIS? THIS IS IT. MUST WATCH, INDEED.

Season 3 is not needed.
Its been 4 years since Season 1 was released and 2 years since Season 2 was. Tbh, I hesitated watching the S2 after seeing new casts and Namtarn being out since I know her potential would be helpful for their mission. So yeah, because of that hesitation, I watched the second season just this 2022. And as an avid fan of the first season, I must say.. this ended not perfect but just like how it should be.Before watching the second season, I have decided to read some reviews first and ngl, I already expected lots of mixed reviews. One of the things that I mostly read was about the neverending plot twists that makes the story more confusing and more broad. But I guess one thing is needed to be done to know if how S2 will turn out and that is to watch it.
STORY:
Story wise, the goal of Pang and his friends just continue from season 1, its just that a lot of factors do affect the execution of their plans and thats how the enormous amount of plot twists takes place. At first, I feel those twists is just something unnecessary to the point that once it started, it wont stop, just episode after episode, there will be something which would make you frustrated, confused and disappointed all at the same time. But once I reached the ending, I somehow understood why those happened.
One thing I was just so disappointed abt was the characters' potential. Some of them have improved theirs but some remained the same and seems like not been focused on. For example, Jack and Joe. Their potential might be helpful for the mission but they're just their seating, standing and just listening in their meetings. I just hope that at some point in the series, they gave a part where each of them showcase their potential in a single move for their plan. Just my opinion.
For the ending, personally.. I'm okay with it. But I think I'll agree with some saying that it could be better. The execution can be better but as someone who really did wait for season 2, the ending is quite okay. Again not perfect but I guess it just right.
ACTING/CAST:
Tbh, even if the set up, story line and the scenes are already completely messing up our minds, we cant deny that the casts did a great job portraying their characters well. For example, Nanon made me feel pity Pang for being used and being betrayed so many times. And as I said earlier, I kinda hesitated watching this series because of the new added casts but after watching, I can say that they added new flavor to the story and I liked it. Thanat, Tay and Namtan also made me feel the chills at their guest roles. I cant explain in words how these casts really brought both S1 and S2 to another level. Hands down.
REWATCH VALUE:
Honestly, for how stressed I am after watching both seasons, I think the rewatch value of this would be lower. For me who dont usually rewatch shows, this show would definitely be in my "not to rewatch" list. Not because its bad, but I think once is enough. I might be rewatching some particular parts in particular episodes but will not watch the whole series once again.
I know we all have different perspectives in terms of rewatching shows and I do respect you for your own opinion but for me this show is just for once only.
OVERALL:
I still prefer the first season over this one even though I know that S2 is a continuation. The execution of scenes and the "wow" factor was lessen plus I think too much plot twists is not for everyone. But still, it gives you the "The Gifted" vibes you're being up to from season 1 and the flow of it was I think still suitable from how s1 ended. The ending, was just right.
Is Season 3 needed? Based on how it ends, I think Nanon was right after saying that how it ends it already enough. The ending might scream for more but I think, Season 3 is unnecessary.
Ps. Lets give some rest to Pang and Friends ?
