Dont think I want to rewatch it

The trailer was on Netflix and then I thought why not watch this BL drama which was made more than a year ago. I had no expectations, and since it had only 12 episodes, I thought: okay, I may be able to finish it in a day or two. I enjoyed the first few episodes: a homophobic guy living on-campus with a gay roommate. Then I could just guess that they will eventually become a couple, but will have to go through a stormy relationship (just like Sotus, My Bromance and 2gether; all three were my favorites).

But as we get to the later episodes, I find the drama lacking substance, a bit dragging and boring. Oh, they could have just made this into 8 episodes, I think. Other reviews here have already mentioned why the storyline is problematic: the sex scenes which were not completely consensual and Type's childhood trauma which suddenly magically disappeared after episode 3.

I don't mind about the ups and downs of their somewhat toxic relationship (toxic from both sides) and the jealousy and possessiveness of both Tharn and Type, which puts more "drama" into this drama. But how come the development of each character were not given enough justice. It would be great we could see Tharn as a musician, instead of a "nice patient boyfriend" who actually can only think of sex. But we only saw him play the drum twice during rehearsals and one show in the bar.

What I found annoying was Tar and Tum at beginning episodes. Who the hell are these guys? There was no hint at all of who they were . Why do we have to watch this older guy picking up a high school student at school? Also the lunch scenes at home. I had no idea what their relationship was. Were they brothers? Lovers? Whose house was this? No parents at home? One scene showed Tum receiving a phone call from Mom, and that was it. Then Tharn bumps into Tar in episode 9 or 10, Then it was like: "Oh okay, now I see who the boy is".

The drama had so many un-mended holes in the story. Some scenes could just be taken out. Dinner with Tharn's family was not only awkward but also artificial. When Type met his childhood friend back home, the friend came out to him being gay. Then what? Oh I see, this was just a pasted scene. Nothing significant. The fighting scene on the last episode was the worst. Assuming this was on-campus (all five boys were still wearing uniforms), weren't there any security officers around?

Anyway, I think the actors were great. They played their roles well. I would love to see each of them in other dramas. About this one? I don't regret watching it, but I don't think I would like to spend time re-watching it either. I'd rather watch My Bromance The Series, SOTUS, and 2-Gether over and over again :-)
