taecyeon playing a crazy CEO serial killer pretending to be a naïve lawyer is by far the best part of the show but I literally hated everything else. Vincenzo is a self impressed self righteous sum bag with thinks he's hot shit when he's just as bad as the villain's and not even half as fun. does terrible shit and facing no consequences for his actions and is honestly rewarded for all the bad things he does. the female leads and the tenants of the apartment building are all in a different show. the tine is all over the place. not fun the only thing I cared about was taecyeon and anything he was doing he's the only reason this was not dropped Was this review helpful to you?

At the very start I was really on board with this show. The story sounds interesting on paper and the actors where doing their best with the materiel that was given. However, as the show when on it took a turn. This show has an interesting plot on paper whoever, I feel the writers didn't really know what to do with the plot and character after the two leads got together the first time. After this the show devolves into someones does not like the two main leads relationship two leads fight break up for the episode, make up get back together and then break up again the next episode. Repeat this for about 10 episodes. Toward the end of the series the writers also decide to throw in a bunch of cliche drama story plots instead of doing anything to advance the couples relationship. The only character that felt actually had good character development and changed into a better more well rounded person is the second male lead. Overall this show isn't bad just a little boring and had wasted potential. If you're in the mood for a swimming drama just watch My Mr. Mermaid instead Was this review helpful to you?
This show has a very good premise and seeing YG artists in these outlandish situations can be really funny.
Overall I enjoyed the acting but you can tell that some of the cast is far more experienced than others especially with the idols. It is very clear that some of these idols are not actors. Seungri is the stand out of this show and I found that his performance was the most compelling.
However my biggest issue with the show was the comedy. This show is entirely focused on comedy and for me some of the jokes just didn't land.

Is it some kind of masterpiece no but that is not what it set out to be. What it's trying to be is a short little web drama about high school detectives who solve little mysteries and sometimes you just want a show you can finish in a day between watching some more intestine things. If you go in expecting that then you'll have a wonderful time.

However, It must be said that this show tackles some very serious topics and while I think it was well done I can see how some could be triggered by it and have different opinions and that is completely understandable.
Overall this is now one of if not my favorite BL of all time. Would I rewatch it Absolutely!!! I'm already planning to multiple times. I cannot recommend this show enough.

I really enjoyed this show from start to finish and can see why so many people have raved about it. While the show has a lot of drama tropes and story lines that have been done before but it does them in the best way possible and it never feels forced or out of place. The two main leads and an incredible chemistry and there relationship develops in a way that makes me what to see them be together the whole way through. A big plus for me was the main male lead Shangyan, many times in shows like this kind of character is cold and really has no other character traits until the main female lead changes him. This show took this in a different direction, yes shanyan is cold in the beginning but even from the first episode you see these moment of warmth and I always prefers characters like this. Other benefits are that there was no forced love triangle. This last point is an angle I'm glad the show went with, their really is no villain in this show. All the characters are just people living there lives no one is being malicious. It just people growing and learning more about themselves and each other without some cartoon character coming in and trying to destroy them . Overall, this has been the best romance of the year in my opinion and just an all around joy to watch Was this review helpful to you?

This is the first of the History series that I have watched and now I want to watch more. Usually the teacher student relationship isn't my thing but this show is the exception and I think the way they handled the relationship was really well done. I adore just how domestic this couple is and they family dynamic that they have with Yoyo. They tackle real life issues and the realities of this type of relationship. Also I'm always into bi representation and I like that this isn't about a man being traumatized and heartbroken from his ex wife and then turning gay but it's man who got divorced from his wife and just so happened to now fall in love with another man. Also how they handled the ex-wife was perfection. The acting was good they only criticism i have is that some of the crying scenes weren't great and kind of looked like the actors were more laughing as apposed to crying.
