The ship has sunk...

Be Mine Superstar or where the two leads are actually the two bickering managers who are having a senseless feud.
In between childish scheming, we got a side actor moonlighting as a stalker who tries hard to get a doctor dude in bed and keeps roughly fucking him whenever he gets the chance. It is important to note that said doctor doesn't want him and drew a line in the sand, but oh well what are boundaries for in dramas?
Now when it comes to the leads, we got some very awkward and cringe-worthy puppy love that is more creepy than cute... when I thought that no one could top Toh from Secret Crush on You. Well, think again because Punn has outdone himself!
I should not forget the gigolo henchman whose abs I have seen way too often. Ken, I chose to remember you as Tum from Lovely Writer because this Bank character... they did you dirty.
I will continue to watch this as I can't seem to look away from this car crash. I thought no one could do worse than La Cuisine or Unforgotten Night, but I guess someone decided to outdo themselves.
If you haven't started this, save yourself the trouble. I know that 2023 hasn't been generous in good BLs but they're still better than this.

Mediocre plot + Meh acting + Low Budget = Another overrated flop

From nothing happening to crumbs of moments between the two main leads... this drama is flat...as flat as the characters depicted who are walking clichés...

Although, I could understand the slow pace of Takara-kun to Amagi-kun... here the pacing isn't just slow, it's completely off. It should be noted that throwing in rivals to advance the plot only serves one thing... it makes this drama even more boring than it already is... and no the lack of budget doesn't excuse any of this.

I don't see any character development happening in the two episodes we have left and I have no hope that this will get any better.

Now how is this drama rated as high as Hidden Agenda, My Personal Weatherman or Love Class S2 is beyond me ? I guess this will be another of those mediocre BLs that somehow ends up being "liked"
