I haven't gotten around to reading the Manhwa but I've heard many good comments about it and how the story is very well written. So I thought the drama might be a good, quick watch to do with my busy schedule.

The drama had a tough time keeping my attention. There just wasn't anything really grabbing or very interesting that would grant me to keep my attention on the show. The audio editing to me seems a bit too loud, kinda distracting, and jumpy. This is mostly just me since I'm in an Animation & Digital production program but there's a slight editing mistake. In episode 3 about 3 minutes in one of the bullies go to erase something off of the board and it a section gets erased without him actually getting to that part and almost seems too clean.

The story feels like there's missing information and just some plot in general. That there are things that should be known about the characters but the information isn't entirely there or even can be there with the episodes available for the story. The story would have been better if there was just more time for a better plot.

Also, the story gives me the vibe of what kinda seems to be like speedrunning happening with it all. As if you would do if you were playing a dating sim on a second run for different dialogue options to see if there is a different ending you can get.

As I've seen in other comments, it seems like this drama has the trouble like many other BL dramas suffers with. That being low budget. It also kind of feels like they have made the drama just for the sake of making it and getting the fans who absolutely adored the manhwa hyped over it. Made the drama quickly and then They could have made the show way better than it is, even with the low budget. There are plenty of other shows that I've seen that are low budget that are still really good.

There also seems to be a lack of chemistry between the leads, and stiff with awkward exchanges between them. It feels like their relationship is kinda rushed, which just adds to my speedrun vibes mentioned earlier. The dialogue sometimes doesn't seem genuine to me as well. It can be seen though that they are trying with what they were given, but it also kinda seems like they are lacking in a way? It could mostly be because of how the drama and they were directed. They also seem like they are inexperienced with having BL roles based on what's available on MDL. Making this series probably their first time in such roles. which could be tough or possibly uncomfortable since it's out of what they are used to being cast as.

So, All wrapped up,
It was a nice little try at the drama. It seems like something someone in school would make or would make for one of those "make in an X amount of time" events. Please no speedrunning, it needs more story/plot and not to be so rushed. The soundtrack probably needs to be less distracting and choppy. Also absolutely nothing against the actors, Maybe pick actors who are more comfortable with being cast or more experienced with BL? It could make things seem a little less awkward. Im only saying that because they seemed awkward and stiff during the drama at times.
