It's not just Jun and Jun

*happy ending*

First of all, why is it so damn short? There are a lot of plotlines that could've extended the series to a whopping 15-episode one. This is one of the best korean BLs I have watched. 8 episodes is really just not enough. Because of that, it felt like the plot was rushed by episode 7. It was redeemed though by the love scenes, chef's kiss especially in the line of Korea's BLs.

The actors are sooo handsome, they act great too. I am just a bit sad that the main couple didnt had that much screen time together. For an short series, it was really not enough. Add to that the second couple who has a very intriguing storyline that they didnt even use! Hello? Ex manager and idol? Who doesnt love that?

The cameo? My tutoryim heart jumped with joy when I saw them.

How I wish this was longer. Or something that opens up a second season instead of them squeezing the whole story in a short series.

A highly recommended comfort BL

For those who are wondering, this series has a *happy ending* for all four couples.

I watched this series because of Earth, but ended up loving every single cast. Here are some reasons why I love and recommend this series to watch:

- Comfort BL. If you are looking for something sweet, simple, and at the same time, well executed plot, then this series is for you. It covers different romantic tropes (enemies to lovers, long time lovers, friends to lovers, and admirer/fan to lovers) without too much angst and too much sweet moments. A perfect balance.
- Equal screen time. Another reason is that this series perfectly executed and mashed the four couples in one series. The main couple is not overshadowed and the secondary to fourth couples are not treated as side stories. There is equal screen time and the flow of the story to one couple to another is very smooth.
- Perfect balance of comedy, romance, and a bit of drama. Earth really improved on his acting that when he bawls in the series, I bawl with him. The comedy is well executed and the progress from enemies to lovers is so damn smooth. Not too fast and not too short.
- No toxic characters. Well, there are two. Tim, who is kind of a bit toxic, and the head counselor, but the rest are not. The main characters' sisters aren't toxic. They are not intrusive and are very supportive. There are no intrusive and over the top BL shippers in this series. The characters can even hold hands freely in the campus. The parents are also supportive and open.
- A good kind of cliché. A lot of reviewers didn't like the cliché tropes in this series. However, I got to say that the clichés in the series is well executed that I did not skip any part because of second hand embarrassment. Also, the story is engaging until the end.


Things I didn't like much in the series:

- The head counselor, but thank God that they didn't make the shipper thing progress the relationship till the end. She is funny though.





All in all, this series is soooo damn underrated. I watched Ai Long Nhai (ep 1-3) before watching this on a whim and I can say that this series is better than that. Also, I love that 'Support' is a prevalent theme in this series. This is a highly recommend series to me!! Watch it on Boyyent youtube!

Well, that was a weird last episode

*happy ending*

Just like other reviews, the premise was chef's kiss. The overall plot that they are going through is unique and engaging. Quite cute as well. Plus the love scenes are superb. One of the best i might say.
However, it started going downhill a bit by episode 7. I didn't like that they added unnecessary scenes of Nara. I was soo weirded out of her sudden solo scenes. She is beautiful but I dont think those scenes about her are necessary. She even had about almost 20 mins of screentime in episode 8 and most is just her crying. I dont see the point.
The last episode is the weirdest for me. They added a flashback of the extra couple which I dont think is necessary. It took time that was supposed to be for the main couple's time to shine.

Speaking of flashbacks, what i also didnt like about this series is the amount of unnecessary flashbacks. I dont know why they keep reusing the scene that just happened as a flashback. Hello? The viewers does not have that short of a memory.

Anyway, Patt is sooo handsome. He looks a lot like Mamoru from Sailor moon. I also liked that I didn't feel any awkwardness towards both couples. Though the sudden GL couple was totally weird addition. It was like a spurn out of a moment thing.
I also dojt understand whats wrong with Tai. Maybe its the actor. Because there are times when he looks at Lom as if he is in love with him and even though he and Patt had a falling out, he doesnt look that sad. I think the actor needs a bit of improvement.

I love the cinematography of this show. Too bad that they added the best parts as a weird addition. For example, the sudden addition of sceneries in the last episode. Was it to garner tourists kind of tactic. Should have it part of the whole season instead. The music on the other hand is chefs kiss.


All in all, I am recommending you to watch it as it is one of maybe the middle high best of BL series out there. It might be something to rewatch, but it is a must watch.
