A simplistic but sweet BL story
This is a short series about the journey of 2 school friends Shin Ki Tae and Lee Wan who meet after a period of 7 years and work together on creating a Dating simulation game while also discovering the feelings that they have for each other.
If you feel that the story, I summarized is rather simple that is because it is. The series doesn’t waste much time and shows Lee Wan being interviewed for a job in the same company where his school crush Shin Ki Tae works. This brings back the feelings that Lee Wan tried to hide for so many years since he disappears from Shin Ki Tae’s life after confessing his love to him. While working together to develop the game, they spend a lot of time together and the unrequited love from the past blossoms in to a relationship.
The series is full of sweet and tender moments between the two characters, although at certain times it tries to portray the genuine fear Shin Ki Tae has about losing Lee Wan like he did some years ago. Looks like Lee Wan’s action of running away from Sin Ki Tae and losing all contact does cause serious trauma to him. The series flourishes thanks to the chemistry between the 2 actors and you feel that it is too short and you are left asking for more.
In conclusion, there is no ground-breaking storyline with strong messages. Instead, what you have is a sugar-coated love story between 2 long lost friends. Give this one a watch and you will find yourself smiling from start to end.
