Started with a light breeze that turned into still air

I honestly don't know how i feel about this series. The premise of the story was interesting, and Japanese BL dramas, heck Japanese dramas in general, tend to have interesting character design set in contexts that are seemingly mundane but actually have a somewhat refreshing perspective. However this series failed to draw me in, from the main characters that i just simply could not connect with, to the overuse of manga cliches i.e. having the two main leads faces hover less than 5cm away from each other as they stare at each other and the camera zooms in. Also, too much chin grabbing... I did not find the characters compelling and I couldn't tell if it was because of the actors or simply how the characters were originally designed or the dialogue (internal dialogue's included) that never quite seemed to connect the characters (or maybe that was the entire point of it, in any case it didn't work for me).
