This show should be called Daon and the Others cause.
I watched this show when Kbls weren't too big and crazy like they are now, and at the time I honestly thought this bl was a solid wholesome high school drama with a cute couple and villians like Daon and that girl who's name I dont recall, but boy was I wrong. A couple of months after my first watch, I decided to watch lom again, surprisingly it felt like i was watching a new show. After paying more attention to the other characters like Namgung and Daon, I came to the conclusion that the writers messed up so much cause, how can a so called villain get more character development than the main ones? Daon is described as this guy who is nothing but a people pleaser, a guy who has a perfect life, since he has money, popularity, and is also the school president so, what could go wrong in his life? So at this point we all know he’s queer and he falls for our main character (who’s the most boring person aliveee), but reality hits when they get outed. Taekyung get’s mad at Daon cause he wanted his time to sort his mind after the whole school that was ruled by him, suddenly saw him as a weird insect walking though those hallways. As a queer person myself, I can’t help but to put myself in daon’s shoes, I am an extroverted, leader, pationate girl who could be called popular, but deep in my heart I know that if my sexuality ever gets out there, everything that I’ve constructed will come to an end. That’s called reality, some people can’t afford to live in those false mentalities that tell us to live our life and don’t care about others, but in the outside world we could get killed. Also, something that people tend to overlook is the fact that Shinwoo preferred to help a guy he just met, giving him advice and offering him a shoulder to lean on, so he wouldn’t feel alone because of his queerness, than to help his fellow student council member AND friend just because he liked a guy he knew nothing about??? WOWWW tysm shinwoo?? i guess? anyways the only good characters are daon and namgung cause they are cunty hot girls. ty for reading xx
