It's a cute plot concept that was executed fairly well. I feel like there could've been a few changes done to up the quality, but the problems are very minimal and have little effect on the actual show.

- The first two episodes of the series felt incredibly slow and tense for me (I don't like bully subplots), I personally feel like it was skippable. But it *did* set up the way the two leads reconnect with one another really well, so from an objective perspective it's written very nicely.

- One thing I'm really glad about this series is that they made sure to keep the more dramatic moments very short/not that big of problems.

- The time skip felt kind of sudden to me, but it honestly didn't change too much, and helped to skip over possible filler so it's not that big of a deal.

- Rivals and one side couple: both of the rivals felt kind of...boring(?) considering they both approached when you already knew the two guys were in love with each other. The side couple was great and I'm glad it got teased near the end- but I wish we could've seen them actually get together, y'know?

- Another nice bit of this BL are the "scenic" shots. They're really beautiful and the lighting was always *chefs kiss* and don't get me STARTED on the shower scene.

- Anyways, high 8/10 will definitely be rewatching once I clear my watchlist.

I just finished binge watching this show, and let me tell you right now. THIS WAS THE BEST BINGE WATCH IVE EVER BINGE WATCHED. THE ACTION. THE STORY. THE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT. SO GOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!

- In a lot of other shows about fighting and whatnot, if the lead starts off too strong people usually complain that the MC should have to work for it. This series is NOT that kind of case. It's BECAUSE the MC is the strongest that makes this so much better of a watch. It's so satisfying watching him beat up the bad guys and help the people who need help.

- Whoever wrote this story deserves so much praise. The way each character has a unique and intriguing backstory and doesn't feel randomly placed at all is something a lot of series' these days fail at pulling off. The one character I wish we got a bit more backstory on was Min Hwan. He was my favorite aside from Se-Hyun but we didn't really learn much about him. Oh and also Geonyeob. His role is, what I'd consider to be very big in the story- and he's present in a lot of early episodes but loses a lot of screen time midway through the series.

- No, but seriously it's a 10/10 must watch. Last thing I want to say: I really appreciate the comedic moments in this series. In a tense plot like this, those scenes really shine and I think were executed perfectly + placed at great times.

Throughout my time spent watching this series, I teared up multiple times. I mean, how can you not sympathize with how the main characters are feeling? The main plot was very interesting and I couldn't stop watching, desperate to see how the story ends. The character development in this show was also quite nice to see. No amount of change will make me like Min Ju though, I hated her istg she got on my nerves every time she was on screen. My favorite character has got to be the grandma though. She said some things that actually really resonated with me and changed my perspective on aspects of my own life. Anyway, it's a pretty good series- I feel like majority of people who rate this bad are either upset that it's not BL or are upset that it has aspects of BL but if you're only judging it based off of that, is your mindset not also kind of weird/wrong?
