Satisfying BL with Loads of Cute
Even though they have been quite short, I have really been enjoying all of the BL dramas coming out of SK lately. The production on most of these has been pretty great and I have appreciated the production companies that have decided to dip their toes into this genre. I was super excited when Light on Me was announced as a full length drama. From the first episode I was drawn in by the adorable characters and their sometimes silly antics. I read an article, perhaps Teen Vogue, that said something about this BL being a traditional kdrama, but in the form of a BL and I couldn't agree more. From the aesthetics to the OST (thanks to A.C.E. for providing such a great theme song for this drama!), I felt like I was watching a typical Korean high school romance drama just with boys. It was sweet, a bit angsty and a little bit silly, while quietly addressing the stigma around homosexuality that still exists in SK. I loved the characters: Namgung being just the best, most supportive friend, Mr Seo - the teacher we all wish we had, Shin Woo with his ability to love quietly and sacrificially, Da On's complexity and Tae Gyeong's cute dorkiness and straight forwardness. This drama had such a satifying ending and I am only disappointed in that it is already over.
