Flawed, but also has the most lovely, soft touches, kisses and convincing looks between lovers
I wonder if me taking a break from watching this series for a couple months half way through it really helped my viewing enjoyment. Since I understand a lot of the criticism people have pointed out about it getting draggy and boring at times. But having binge watched the last 4 eps in one go after taking a break- I finished this series loving it.
I think if you found the first several episodes boring, give it another chance and just watch those scenes on double speed (I did lol). Episode 4 and 8 were my favourite, even despite the idiocy of their 3 year hiatus bullshit in the last ep. I feel like it picks up from ep 4, where you get to see the main leads get together and work through some genuine issues (not stupid bl high school issues, actual issues). I liked seeing all the ghosts stories come to an end and how they looped back to a real reason for Kevin to be so invested in Ghost Hunting.
By far the best thing to come out of this series is the chemistry between the male leads. Boy has to be one of the most convincing BL actors I've seen in a while. They genuinely seem attracted too and turned on by each other. Lord the scene where Pleum was getting hot and bothered looking at Kevin's legs just had me. But it's more than that, it's how Pleum looks at Kevin, kisses his hands, etc. It's the longing love I'm looking for in BL. For that I can look past a lot of the boring and/or stupid parts.
Usually I'd have a lot more of an issue with the whole idiotic 3 year time skip- but this time I was able to overlook it for the above since the last ep delivered again on the longing and flirtation. Idk if the time skip crap happening in a thousand BLs has just desensitized me too it at this point lmao. Yes, logically in no sane world would Kevin be able to piss off for 3 years with no communication or explanation and have Pleum waiting and desperate for him at the end. No sorry, no explanation. I'm still waiting for the day BL writers could be mature enough to instead have just had Kevin admit he was scared. Where they would have talked about it and got together like normal humans. But alas I am expecting too much of the world of BL again. I'll take what I can get, lol.
Oh and the other main bonus of this series is just watching Boy act. He has a lot of potential and I hope he gets a lot of projects in future. He's like the insanely hot, more bulked out, flirtatious, sexy older brother of Nanon IMO.
