This drama is a ten out of ten, and here's why:

There are so many great reviews already on this page, so I'll tell you my perspective of things and what this story means to me.

I started this series, not knowing what the plot would be or who the characters were. Around episode six, I started my regular crying routine as soon as it reminded me of my own story. This drama is like a soft blanket that I can use when I'm feeling down, confused and frustrated.

So what's my story then?

Well, I'm Vlad and they were Karl. I fell for them head over heels over the course of a year, until one day I just couldn't continue being their friend. We had moments, where I could swear that they liked me back, and in which I desperately wanted to kiss them, if only for just a second or two. I dreamed about them, took pictures (even if they hated having them taken), gave corny compliments and cuddled while waiting for our classes. We bonded over k-pop and could chat about the different groups for hours.

But when I finally confessed, I got nothing. Nada.

It was over a game where I had gotten a question if I liked someone. Remember: I had liked them for over a year now, physically bubbling with love. So I wanted to stop living in a fairytale that very second. I looked over at them, sitting next to me and blushed while saying, "Yeah, I like you."

Our friends started giggling like a bunch of children, waiting for their response. They smiled, us having cuddled just moments before as if we had been lovers for real. But it was as if they'd lost their mouth and their words with it. So I got even more embarrassed and took cover behind them like a child, hearing a friend laughing and saying, "You know that you could've just answered yes or no for that question, right?*

And no, that hadn't even crossed my mind.

So I went to use the bathroom, freaking out while texting my best friend about it, before returning with them now eating ice cream like crazy. I tried to check how they were - if they had something to say back to me now. But I got nothing, again.

And then months followed of me waiting for them to at least give me an answer, until I had to see that that was the answer. They stopped cuddling, chatting, sitting beside me, texting me- yet they pretended like nothing was wrong, that I hadn't just laid my heart in front of seven people in a room, including themselves.

So when reaching episode seven, all of this returned, making me cry like a baby once again.

In other words: This drama is a 10/10 for the acting, music, visuals, script and having a story highlighting one of the many struggles of being gay, and how we're only human, deserving love just like everyone.

Thank you for making it. Thank you for giving me a blanket to help with my story, to spread awareness, and for showing us that it's okay to be ourselves, and it's okay for the other person to take their time while you need to be proud.

Love,
Samuel
