Fans called for all three side couples to have their own series

This series is purely for entertainment purposes only and it is delivered!! There were four completely different stories played by different couples, but the couples were all friends or rivals so the stories overlapped beautifully. You get to view couples at different stages of their relationship. There is nothing wildly unique about any of their stories individually, but together they keep you engaged as they explore many different scenarios and points of view. There is the long-term secret couple, the fanboy with a crush who gets a chance to work with his idol, the enemies to lovers, and the struggle of a friend who is in love with his best friend. They give you these tried and true plot lines with slight variations and it's enough.
The characters are all lovely and likable and all the actors coupled have great chemistry. The female characters were all healthy. ALL of the actors do a great job portraying their characters and as the series progress, you become attached to their friend group. It's even more impressive when you realize that many of these actors have only debuted in dramas 3 years or less ago and have 3 or fewer dramas on their resume. I don't know if the hard times of covid made their talent grow faster to survive. I really don't know, but I am personally excited to see how they all grow as artists.
The production was great and at a level, I did not expect from a smaller newer production company.
The music Jeff Satur with his smooth wide-ranged siren vocals sings the opening theme song. I was addicted.
Trigger Warning (Just in case) -The most enjoyable thing is:
This is a light-hearted enjoyable series. That avoids all of the common BL tropes that I personally find uncomfortable and/or problematic no domestic violence, sexual abuse in ANY forms, no significant age gaps with the 17 or younger crowd, and no partner shaming.
