Lackluster

The music was *almost* good enough to make me overlook the poor writing, acting, and story of this drama. Almost.

It started so strong but was so disappointing. I watched the "movie" version of it, and by about 60 minutes in, they'd only had one conversation, and Sang-i was gaping at In-su like a fish the entire time.

There were so many montages, and not really much *talking* between them, so all you would see is two guys smiling at each other and patting each other's heads and apparently that, paired with some music was enough to make us believe they cared about each other, especially in a non-platonic way.

And it was incredibly cliche, there was instalove and a really sad, unfulfilling episode that made no sense and was "resolved" in about 8 minutes. Trust me, I counted. I kept hovering over the "time remaining" bar because I was curious how they were going to save this train wreck.

Not to mention, it's TW: implied that In-Su is going to kill himself at the very end, because his father won't let him pursue music in the industry. His friends desperately search for him and then- ... fall asleep? What- you didn't think to call the police after that note? And then he comes back after getting his ankles wet for 10 seconds to magically love the other lead, and find all the good people at the studio have quit their jobs and plunged themselves into financial chaos with no plan? Knowing his father is still out there actively harming his career? And what happened to the "no dating" rule? It was rushed and sloppy.

There was no chemistry between the leads, and Sang-i was all but robotic the entire time. It's a sad moment when the side characters are all so much better than the main leads - to the point it was laughable when they were on the screen together.

Maybe I just expect too much from Korean BL seeing as I've mostly come from Taiwanese BL, but I just felt it was so lackluster and disappointing.

I will say - the one redeeming feature (besides the music) was the "kiss" scene. One of the leads is drunk and passed out, and it looks like he's about to kiss him whilst unconscious - but he stops. I respected that. Consent is sexy, and not enough Dramas remember that.
