This drama has a happy ending, but not for who I wanted it for.

The story is baseless and just has plot devices everywhere. I wanted to give it a chance, but come to realize that they forced the couple from the beginning.

I want to say that I was very biased towards Pinjun, because he is the perfect guy. He's caring and deserves to be happy. The two main characters are very unlikable from the start, and honestly deserved each other. I thought it was weird that they had SP episodes. I wish they were about Pinjun.

I don't want to be the one to argue with a lot of the other reviews, but I don't see how this depicts reality. I would say that lack of communication is the reality, but cheating, literally in your partner's face, is just plain awful. I do agree that there are many walks of life and that each are valid, but I deplore straight up infidelity, especially when its done in such a dirty way. By episode 3, I honestly was done with watching because I knew that the good guy was going to come in last. However, I continued to chug along and see what happens. My reality is that if someone was rude to me after giving them so much of myself in the 2-3 weeks of knowing them, I would've been long gone. Its so weird, I never knew a BL series would make me this angry, but I guess this was the writer's vision.

As a gay man I empathized with Pinjun so much that I didn't care about the true endgame couple at all. If you came for the drama and heartache, definitely watch this. Don't say I didn't warn you.

At the time of this review, I have seen the entirety of the drama twice. Both times were as equally as impactful, lots of crying, but believe me it's worth it.

The story is one that I have not seen many do, it's got a touch of the supernatural, but it's done in such a beautiful way that it just intertwines with the story seamlessly. The acting is top notch by everyone. Manow is such a crazy, fun girl, she got me doing an ab workout during some scenes. All the couples were great, however, I do wish we saw more of the WinTeam couple. We'll see more of them when Hemp Rope comes out. DeanPharm had me from the first episode. They built such a beautiful relationship even though they knew they were meant to be even before they met. They didn't rush, they gave each other boundaries. It was such a realistic depiction that it felt so close to home for me. Its just how I was with my partner when our relationship was growing (still together for 6 years btw). I loved the fact that they were two men didn't affect their friends so much, if at all. It just seemed so natural. We all know that the KornIn couple had their love in such an unfortunate time, but you see every step of their relationship with resolve in the end. The drama delves into so many issues, but you mainly feel the love from each character.

I could talk about this drama all day if I could. I do plan on watching it again. While it made me cry throughout the journey, I also felt lots of joy as well. You really empathize with everyone. They are all relatable in some way or another. I would recommend this drama to anyone. This drama is definitely on the top of my list, and I don't see it dropping from that position anytime soon.
