Deep feelings from this one

I really liked Hu Bo Wen, and his emotions felt very real. This had a problematic scene but i still felt it was a good show.

For such a short one I enjoyed watching how he felt and how it progressed. The ending was unexpected, and I'm a bit on the dark side so I could let that incident go and have them continue their relationship. But where they both ended up at the very end, it made me sad.

It made me feel even more for Hu Bo Wens character, here he just went through something traumatic and life changing and the person who caused it, well, you know...

I would love to see a season 2 where someone comes and mends the broken pieces that were surely left behind in his heart.

I'm not sure

So this is considered a Classic BL, that being said it was very slowburn, mild and a bit stiff. I'm glad I watched it so I can say I watched a classic, and it wasn't a struggle to get through but it was very light on BL

I enjoyed Kongpops character.

I enjoyed learning about SOTUS because we get SO many BL with engineer students but haven't seen this side of things!

I enjoyed the side characters that we see a lot in the newer shows. watching their progress and the way they act buddy buddy in the newer shows was interesting.

is this going to be as good as the newer shows? Not if you want a BL main theme. But this is the first one that focused this much on school spirit.

I really can't ship the couple though, I don't know why Kongpop likes this dude and it was hard for me to want them to be together.

overall, like i said, glad I can say i watched a classic and I'd love to see Singto and the old crew in more!

A Gem

This was unexpected and fantastic. Now I have only ran into one truly bad BL so far, knock on wood, so I am always happy when another one is completed and leaves me with happy feelings. This one has excellent comedy, a solid story, a wonderful timeline for the main relationship. It felt realistic, it felt emotional, it made you care for the characters.

The main couple and side couple were equally fantastic, the last episode with the bedroom scene summed up how wonderful the four of these characters were.

Honestly with great leads and side characters you can go so far! The friend group was amazing, and I find that important in college BL romances. Those friends REALLY add to the show.

What I look for in a BL drama:
Cute moments: 5/5
Spicy moments: 1/5
Hilarious Friends: 5/5
Side Couples: 5/5
Tropes I love 5/5

First one to make me cry!

BL's make me happy, embarrassed, excited, but they have never made me cry, until this one!

This had all the good stuff, a main couple with great chemistry and realistic issues, a cute side couple. Great group of friends. A good sprinkle of villain/drama and all the feels!

One event in here truly destroyed me. I could feel that heartache through the screen. Watching them go through the motions of heartbreak had me in tears! It felt to real. It felt like it would never get better, that this was going to be it and we'd have to feel this pain for the rest of our lives. This was more upsetting then my own break up in real life! I never want this to happen in another BL again! I'm not crying, YOU ARE, okay we're both crying now WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

I felt so bad for Koa though, his little sad puppy face, trying to tell everyone he didn't do anything wrong while not being listened to at all.

The only thing that this was lacking was spice. The kisses were locked lipped, there was only one bed scene and nobody really talked about the deed besides a few teasing bits. I like my BL to be a little less PG.

Where's the hot BDSM I was promised?

I was so disappointed. I wanted a hot BDSM with a violent kink. We saw ONE scene and the rest was super vanilla. I wasn't looking for straight prn but a lot of spice added to a decent plot. I thought for sure with such a pretty male lead and a tough mafia guy who needs violence to finish this would be great. But it was all false advertising.

This mafia guy is as soft as a flipping kitten. Letting people boss him around.

How did he keep mentioning that they both like violent sexy time, while it NEVER EVEN HAPPEND in the show.

And even if I get over the let down of spicey, the show dragged, the acting was bad, the plot was boring. That cheesy music though haha.

The one and only good thing about this was Ton, I fell head over heels for him and want to see him in SOOO many more BL's. He is perfection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVED everything about this

The way it started, the drama, the eb and flow of trying to go forward, the ending. It was perfection! One that you don't want to end but you can't stop yourself from binging through.

I loved the characters, I loved the dark way Vee and Mark ended up in that situation. The misunderstandings were understandable for once. Although of course a good talk it out would have done wonders, we understood why the trust issues would be a huge red flag. Both characters had SO much personality and both were run on emotions which made for a wild ride. I hope they continue this series and expand another story from the mini series, but this couple was amazing.

Mark/War did an amazing job on his facial expressions, and I was obsessed with them.
Vee's hopeless romantic ridiculousness was EVERYTHING.

Loved: Love to hate, messed up first encounter, drama, the ending. The cast of characters! This was based in a college and I LOVED all of their friends and how homey their friendship felt. They felt like real people.

Didn't Like: That dang girlfriend hahahahaha, and how long it took for a certain relationship to end

Beautiful and shows character growth

Some say it was disappointing, and if you want in your face drama, you will be disappointed. If you want a heartfelt real romantic feel, this is it. It's a slow growth. It feels like a real relationship developing, similar to a character study.
I loved the characters, Boun especially, so I enjoyed watching how they molded together. I loved the beginning of their story and how it grew.

I'd watch it again.
What I liked: The slow burn, the slow build, the realistic growth and Boun!!!!!!!!!!!!
What I didn't like/care for: I didn't care for the main couple from UWMA popping in, only because they had their own story so I didn't need to see any more of them.

Wish it was a show

I would have liked this to be more stretched out with a show, everything happened so fast! I did find it dark, gritty and I could feel for our lead. I just wish we could have seen more of everyone, it would make us feel even more for them.

I can't get over one thing, did he really have to go and do THAT?! Like, the man has lost enough thank you very much!

Although I enjoyed the show I really think it went to fast, so much information jammed into a short movie. I know there is a second movie that I will watch, but it could have easily filled a 12 episode show in my opinion.

This isn't for the faint of heart. I wish we would have gotten more of the dark and gritty side of selling oneself.

I love my GMMTV boys. Messy perfection.

My advice to new BL watchers, OR new to GMMTV BL's, don't start with this one. I think what made this show so amazing, was being in love with all these characters/couples already and watching them in a whole new light.

This was everything. The couples were amazing, the situations were messy, realistic. My heart hurt, my heart healed, my anxiety went through the roof!

My favorite couples are Mew & Top, I really felt and loved both of them. My second runner up was Ray & Sand, their story was very interesting, touching, and deep. Also Nick, I felt so much for Nick. I want to see Mark(Nick) get a happy series as a lead role.

I also want to see Mond (Boeing) as a lead in a BL. He was so naughty in this one! And honestly I loved it. I am glad they didn't drag out those issues for to long.

Overall, I can't say one bad thing about this show. It was messy perfection.

Hilarious yet surprisingly dark

At first I wasn't sure about this, but hey I needed an English dubbed show to diamond art to, so I stuck with it. The ONLY reason I had pause was the FL, I just wasn't super sold on her. And dear god PLEASE the voices they choose for English subs sometimes are just, ridiculous.

But once I got into it, it was amazing. I couldn't stop watching it. Jang Yeol was hilarious with his pervert profiling of Ye Bun. I loved sweet SunWoo. Every side character was interesting as well. It REALLY did a great job at making you wonder who did it, and misleading you all over the place. I 100% didn't guess who had actually done it until maybe one episode before, if that.

The idea of butt touching was hilarious and never got old. I'm glad she kept her hair! Haha.

The romance was VERY minimal and after what happened to our poor SunWoo, I was happy that it was. She went from crushing so hard on him to being with Jang Yeol, if there was any romantic hint that she liked Jang Yeol at all, I could have let it slide. I did see Jang Yeol liking Ye Bun though. But like I said it is so minimal that it didn't bother me to much.

THE OS was AMAZING, I have it on my spotify playlist even.

AND finally we need to talk about how Ye Bun basically killed SunWoo. She could have grabbed the weapon and stabbed the killer! She could have at least taken the weapon AWAY from the killer! She just left him to die!

Overall an AMAZING show!

Short but Packs a Punch

Wow, this was amazing. I never expected to get so much out of such a short video but it was very moving. It didn't feel like the relationship was rushed, it was outlined and felt comforting and real. I wondered if they both knew what the other did, it seemed like they were both hiding that aspect from each other until they were standing face to face on opposite sides.

I could feel the heartache he felt as he was looking at his partner standing against him. As someone who has protested before, I can feel his passion for his cause and I know what it feels like for people to misunderstand protestors.

The only downside was the ending, it wasn't really resolved. In a way that left us even more impacted but I really want to see what happened after this event.

Slower but no less amazing!

I have such mixed feelings about this one. I loved so many people in this one, Park Hyung Sik was amazing in it! It did have a secret that dragged for way to long and made me very frustrated but there were so many other things happening to keep your attention. So many parts I had to rewind and watch over and over because it was hilarious or so cute!

The romance didn't feel very deep, but it was still enjoyable. The cast really made this show great! I watched it on Viki and reading other viewers comments were fantastic. I felt so connected with other watchers and we all hated the same people and loved the same people!
