    If you want comedic relief, this is the series for you!

    When I started watching the series I thought I was in for a BL rom-com, it isn't exactly that so don't start watching it thinking that.

    Its just a good comedy K-drama which I thoroughly enjoyed.

    Definitely would have liked to see the protagonists enthrall us with more than what they did due to all the tension and attention that was created onto them which could also have been a good reason why we need a season 2.

    Overall definitely watch it if you are looking for some laughs and thorough enjoyment!

    LAUGH A LOT

    I LOVE THIS DRAMA A LOT! It's so funny and worth it

    It's ok and was funny at first but then got boring

    When it comes to two main characters living together in a very confined place, I'm probably one of those people who prefers the romantic side of things. While it was nice to see two characters being friends and have everyone keep misunderstanding that they are a couple, I just felt it needed more spice to actually see the two boys "romance blossoming" in a very unique way that you hardly see in the boys love genre. Unfortunately it just didn't make it into this story which is a pity.. That's pretty much I can say about it to be honest with you, the actors were good in their roles btw especially their singing but the whole misunderstanding on the drama is overused...
