This show is on many top BL drama lists that I have seen. I have been putting it off because Off (no pun intended) just doesn't do it for me, but you know the saying "oldie but a goodie"? Well this is that "trope-y but a goodie".

There is nothing new under the sun here, but as Third said "it's not cliche it's classic". Tropes and cliches exist for a reason and in this case it's well done. Some tropes are more frustrating than other's, but for me personally near the top of the list is the unrequited love trope (more so the secret crush/love), especially when the love interest is a trash person. You can't help but feel for Third in this show while simultaneously feeling like "wtf are you crying over a situation you have control over". You really can't help your feelings, but you can't be upset that someone disregards feelings that they didn't know were there (even though honestly Khai is a pretty crappy friend). That's pretty much par for the course for that particular trope. Two/Un's storyline was not well developed, but I wasn't upset about it. For a storyline revolving around film students the production and cinematography are great. I also really enjoy the music. I very much enjoy the style of this drama with the voice overs.

I think Off is a good actor despite his lack of physical appeal for me. Gun is just the cutest little thing and I enjoy their on and off screen chemistry. White's roles are usually hit or miss for me, but I like him in this role. I appreciated the slightly unexpected twist in Bone's storyline. I was happy to see Neen in another role outside of SOTUS, but I think in some aspects her performance fell short (especially during the Two/Phon showdown).

What can I say? It's a well done classic that I would recommend.
