The Time of Fever

This is a spin-off prequel of Unintentional Love Story about Ho Tae & Dong Hee's past. It's telling the audience what happened between them before the events in Unintentional Love Story happened, about the struggle that the two went through. It's a bitter sweet story compared to Unintentional Love Story. I didn't think that it can be better than its predecessor, but as it turns out, I was wrong. Well, not exactly better, just a different kind of good. If Unintentional Love Story is romantic and sweet, then The Time of Fever is passionate. There's just one thing that I don't like. They kinda diminished Ho Tae's struggle with his sexuality when he realized that he likes Dong Hee. In the comic, Ho Tae's reaction was pretty bad. But in this mini series, he didn't had any significant conflict with Dong Hee because of this. And they also didn't actually show what Dong Hee's father did to him. I was kinda hoping to see the abuse that he received from his father. Because even if it's painful to watch, it's crucial to the plot. Maybe they don't wanna make this mini series too long. Too bad.
