One of the best KBLs for sure!
I decided to give this a watch after seeing some super good reviews, and I was not disappointed. The story and setting is very interesting and unique, and so the BL feels like it's own thing. It's not another cafe BL, or another office or university BL. While those themes are fun, this small town vibe with a famous person hiding and being an artist and teacher really stands out. The acting is top notch and all of the main actors are very handsome. I enjoyed watching every single episode. I highly recommend this BL, so if you are wondering what to watch, prioritize this one! The length was also good to me, not too long and also not too short. I would gladly rewatch this. Like other Korean BLs, the story does feel very fantasy-like and so it is difficult to relate to the characters, but nevertheless is very entertaining.
If I had to pick a weak point, I would say that the kissing scenes were one of the weaker ones in BLs. recent BLs have basically all had good kiss scenes and this one is more like a basic kdrama stiff kiss. Also, the side couple left a little more to be desired in my opinion. Overall, I think this is a BL that should be talked about more just like some of the other best ones like Blueming.
