Eye Contact

I love all kinds of BL dramas and I'm cureently on the 6th episode (got bored so decided to review now) and still dont know why highschool students are part of the show. The woman actors were brutal for the most part. The ones that had the exactor blade were the worst ive seen and I had to laugh at their acting. The mother she looked evil without opening her mouth and the FL were ok, but to much time was spent on them. The MLs were ok but when having their temper tantrums I just rolled my eyes because who actually acts that way. There were a few good scenes hence my review score, but it's not a show I will ever watch again.

This series is kinda... cringey.

The slow-mo entrances with girls screaming "He's so handsome!", I couldn't take it seriously. It feels like your typical cliché university BL, complete with bar hangouts and canteen scenes we've all seen a hundred times.

Then there are the high schoolers. What even is their connection to the main plot? It honestly felt like pure filler. I skipped all their parts without a second thought.

And Chain... suddenly liking Nu out of nowhere? No buildup, no signs, no explanation. He literally started off being into a girl-stole Sun's girlfriend, and then out of the blue he's into Nu? Make it make sense.

What I liked:

• The enemies-to-lovers trope
• The cast is easy on the eyes
• The chemistry is surprisingly good-GL included!

What I didn't like:

• Kidnapping, violence, and r*pe content-hard no
• Sun's cheating then Nu forgave him easily
• Those two kids awkwardly pressing lips
• That vomit scene?? Rin's about to puke and her friend offers her hands instead of pointing to the nearby restroom? Girl, what. That's not friendship, that's bad writing 😂
• One of the leads just cannot act angry convincingly, super cringey
• Some of the acting is a bit stiff

Did the writer really think throwing in dark themes like kidnapping and r*pe would improve the story? Because it really didn't.

I'm glad this is just 6 episodes. People warned me this was bad, and now I see why. But hey curiosity got the best of me. No one to blame but myself.
