See Your Love isn't your typical BL series. It's refreshingly different, especially with its deaf representation, which you rarely see in the genre. The story follows Shao Peng, a deaf and mute guy who's eager to land a caregiver job, and Zi Xhiang, a rich and laid-back guy who ends up hiring him.
It's a fluffy series with just the right mix of comedy and a bit of action thrown in. What hooked me was how engaging the first episode was, I was instantly invested. Honestly, I'm shocked this show is so underrated. A lot of BL fans are definitely sleeping on this gem.
The chemistry between the leads is next level. Their connection is undeniable, even through subtle stares and small gestures. The acting? Spot on. Even the side couple is adorable and adds charm to the story.
Shao Peng's portrayal as a deaf character is really convincing. And while Zi Xhiang starts off as a so-called "useless rich kid," I genuinely admire how he puts in the effort to learn sign language just to communicate better with Shao Peng. That's not easy, and it says a lot about his character. He even starts trying harder at work, all for Shao Peng. Total green flag couple!
The kisses and intimate scenes? Super natural, with zero awkwardness.
There is one scene that really hurt to watch, when Zi Xhiang says some harsh stuff to Shao Peng. It was heartbreaking, and honestly, I wish he hadn't gone there. Being deaf isn't anyone's fault, and the worst part? No real apology.
Also... am I the only one confused about the cousin drama? Like, he wants to take over the family business but is also trying to block Zi Xhiang's relationship with Shao Peng? Dude should be thrilled Zi Xhiang has no interest in the business. The logic just isn't logic-ing.
Zi Xhiang's dad against with their relationship but it wasn't really explored in depth, and in the end it's unclear whether he gave in or still does things for them to break up.. On the flip side, I absolutely adored Shao Peng's family, they were so kind, warm, and supportive.
If I had to point out one downside, it'd be the excessive flashbacks. With only 27 minutes per episode, the constant flashbacks felt a bit much. They could've used that time to move the plot forward instead. I would have give this a 9/10 but the excessive flashbacks made it choppy, so I gave it 8/10.
Still, See Your Love is meaningful, easy to watch, and never feels dragged out. Definitely a hidden gem worth checking out.
