Erro Semântico

I gave the first two episodes lower scores because I couldn't really feel the plot or the characters that well. Upon doing a rewatching of those two episodes and then finally continuing on, I've come to understand it better and grew to enjoy the character development of Sangwoo specifically. I really enjoy this series and would rewatching this in a heartbeat.

Honestly i've been expecting higher since the story was adapted from a bl manhwa. And wow , cant say more, im impressed with the storyline. They have done a bit improvisation but im not disappointed at all i'd say. They really do immerse in their own roles despite the fact both actors are actually an Idol but that gives them no exceptions to do well in the series. Please give semantic error a watch.

From good cinematography to good acting, this series has significantly raised the standard of a BL Drama. So much so, that you'd be disappointed if you used this amazing drama as a basis for comparison.

It just ended and I have already rewatched it a dozen of times. It is obvious the production team has put in a lot of effort behind the scene, where BL normally has less budget in comparison to its cousin kdrama. Within eight episodes, they portrayed a lively and complete story with interesting characters. Mix time, effort and talented actors, this is really a top tier drama. Both main actors are idol turned actor, but their acting is certainly worth looking forward to. They have one of the strongest chemistry and on screen, their couple vibe is unparalleled. All in all, this is a must watch on lazy Sunday afternoon. Might not be as captivating as penthouse, but it's a relaxing, funny and romantic drama.

The good: 1. No gross sexualization of queer relationships 2. It doesn't give Comphet 3. Enemies to lovers done right!

4. hot & cold interactions between the MLs, nothing stale 5. The MLs breath life into the characters 6. Jang Jae Young will give you butterflies 7. Chu Sang Woo is the perfect smart, introverted MC 8. Struggling with sexuality but no homophobia 9. Episodes are short and fast paced, no time to get bored 10. Subtle comedy, romance, drama: nothing over the top

The bad: 1. The first kiss not consensual

Overall: Some of these points may seem like the bare minimum but how often do you see LGBTQ+ stories done right? This was a refreshing watch and I didn't expect it to be this good.

Whoever told me that BL is just fetishization of gay men was criminal for keeping me away from this genre. This is my first BL and it was so addicting that I read the entire manhwa released so far after only watching 3 episodes of the show. HIGHLY recommend.
