Possible spoilers

This movie is beautiful. Don't get me wrong, it is. But why in the world does it have only a 15+ content rating? Im 22 and when i watched it, it hit me from all different directions and i thought about it for a while after i finished it. Its upsetting but beautiful at the same time and it makes you cry basically. I really hated the ending, it left me in shock and i don't know if they really HAD to give us that ending, but maybe they thought it matches the theme of the movie. It does, but still.... I would give this a 18+ content rating tbh. It has some VERY mature scenes and themes. But overall it's worth to watch if you're sure you can handle something of this genre.

HOLY F*CK AND SPOILERS

I watched this some time ago and now i thought its the time to say something about it. The sentence that best describes what i felt when i watched it is WHAT THE ACTUAL F**CK DID I JUST WATCH?? Yes. Exactly. Trust me when i say this, i never watched something like this in my life nor did i ever hear about something like this. I watched it out of boredom and curiosity at 3am. Not the best idea i ever had. I dont usually have trouble following along a movie or a show, but this? Im surprised i was able to finish it and oh boy what an ending it had... I gave the acting 7 stars because good job to them for being able to act in this. The story? I refuse to make myself remember every little detail because i tried so hard to forget it. Long story short, if you re into some kind of weird, messed up love triangle between 1 man who left to pursue his dream, 1 who was bullied and was drowning in a deep depression after his lover left and 1 who is HIS BROTHER, this is the BL is for you. Also, if you re into a brother obssessing over his own brother and kill*ing him at the end because of jealousy (and cuddling his dead body) then sure, watch and enjoy. But if not, DONT DO IT. Take it from someone who did and then asked herself "what was i thinking?"

DONT MAKE THE MISTAKE I DID

I ll start off by saying i did read the description of this drama beforehand so i had an idea of what i was in for. The story got 5 stars only because i understand what they were trying to show. This drama can actually traumatize someone. It doesnt matter if you have PTSD or not, this WILL affect you. Honestly, when i watch dramas, movies or whatever, i watch them to enjoy them. I didnt enjoy this. I dont even know how you could enjoy it. The acting was chefs kiss, they re good actors because if they werent, i wouldnt have been in a state of shock while watching it. Im not the type of person to be mean or to hate on a show, but i am very honest. Why would you make a bl drama with r*pe and show every little detail of it ? I ve seen other dramas with this genre, but they never showed such EXPLICIT scenes. After i watched it, i couldnt even move for some time. Im not being dramatic, this is how horrible it was. You can portray this type of assault in many other ways to not make people have nightmares afterwards. In conclusion, my honest advice is to not watch it. I know you probably will because of curiosity, but from the bottom of my heart, dont do it. I cant understand how a human being can enjoy seeing r*pe and su**ide play out right in front of them.

I ve been reading these reviews and seeing people bash this drama so hard. It doesnt have a storyline? Or a plot? Of course it does. Compared to other BL dramas, this is actually amazing. Some people have a problem with the Pete-Vegas relationship. Of course its toxic, that was the whole point. Vegas its messed up because of his dad and lets be honest, maybe Pete likes a little bit of toxicity which is not unheard of. Also, its not the only BL drama with this kind of toxic-aggressive relationships. Actually, almost every drama has its own toxic character that somehow ends up loving someone. The only difference is that KinnPorsche actually showed in depth details of the toxicity. Some people really like to overreact, you re not a movie critic, you dont have to look at every detail and go crazy over it. It does have some weird and unnecessary parts but THEY ALL DO. Also, Kinn and Porsche ? I personally loved the way they met and how they ended up together. Its a mafia boss-bodyguard relationship, what do you expect ? And the other characters were AMAZING. They all did what they were meant to do. Kim and Porchay didnt end up together probably mainly because Porchay was underage in real life so they couldnt make them a couple. To end this whole review, if you like this type of series, ignore the awful reviews and just watch it.

Watch it!

If you like cute, fluffy but also sad and dramatic BL dramas, definitely watch this!! Its got everything you could ever want from a series (yes, including 18+ scenes but dont get your hopes up about that)
There s something about japanese dramas that makes you either cry yourself to sleep, punch something or blush from all the cuteness. In my opinion, its worth watching!!
The acting, the story, everything its so well thought of im proud of myself for waiting every week for the episodes even tho i dont like having to wait and not being able to watch it all in one go. But i really didnt mind waiting for this one.

I dont know if anyone is gonna read this review but i wanted to do my part as a BL watcher and give a little bit of details to someone like me who checks the rating and review comments of a drama before i watch it.

This is one of the few BL series that make me confuse regarding the question “should i recommend it or not?”
I dont know what to say. Honestly, they balanced sadness, anger, happiness all into one series somehow. Besides the ending, this drama will make you feel every emotion in the book while watching it (and at the end make you feel like you died inside btw)
Its a beautiful couple portrayed by 2 extremely talented actors. The story? I ll try not to say too much about it because its very complex and id keep writing about it forever.

I wanna adress the ending a little bit, i ll try not to spoil it too much but judging by how famous this BL series is, you probably already heard of it. Its one of the saddest endings i have ever seen and i found myself trying to get myself to believe that they re lying and that didnt actually happen. I cried so much you dont even know.

With this being said, enjoy watching this series be sure to have tissues next to you at all times!!

ENDING SPOILERS!!!

So i wanna start off by saying this is one of my favourite Chinese Bl dramas. The storyline its beautiful, the actors did an amazing job. BUT WHO THOUGHT THAT ENDING WAS A GOOD IDEA ? Im not even talking about the main protagonists ending because that was an okay ending, but the Xiang and Weining one. They we re literally my favorite characters after Zhou and Wen. I never cried so much while watching a drama. I wanted to leave this here in case someone reads my review. If you are sensitive, cant stand sad endings and you wanna see only happy endings, prepare yourself before watching this. Im not saying dont watch it because it s worth watching, but just prepare yourself mentally, grab lots of tissues. Hope this helps!!

Also, dont let the reviews fool you. I ve noticed some people talking about the plot, about the "lack of emotions". This kind of upset me a little bit if im being honest since this is in my top 3 Chinese dramas. If you really think the characters in this lacked emotion, i honestly think you didnt watch enough dramas with 0 emotions in which the actors had no chemistry whatsoever and it hurt to watch. But Word of Honor ? Seriously ? The reason why Zhou seemed distant and "average" is because thats how he had to be for the storyline to make sense. In a drama (dramas in general, not just BL), the protagonists dont have to be all over each other to make a good drama series. If one is colder and the other one isnt, that s fine too. But that doesnt make it a bad or average drama. No way. I loved and love everything about this, and when i say everything, i mean EVERYTHING.

WATCH IT!! Also, SPOILERS

Incredible. When i first saw this title and read the description, i was kind of hesitant but nevertheless i watched it. I dont regret it at all. Its way too underrated, but so worth it. If you like action dramas (especially BLs), watch it. Seriously. It deserves more recognition. The way they didnt know who each other was at the beginning was funny af. They met randomly and one was actually the other ones biggest fan. Adorable. But also the fact that the fan was secretly an assassin just like him. The ending was sad but oh well it is a drama. Just do yourself a favor and watch it!!

Worth every minute

Yes, i did give this movie a 10 out of 10 rating. Im still trying to understand the low rating it has.
I understand it might not be for everyone since its barely a movie and more of a memoir of a couple who didnt get their happy ending. I cant even comprehend how that was acting since it felt like i was watching 2 real life lovers making memories together. I saw someone said they laughed and cried together with them and its true. Its so raw that when they re happy, u are too and when they cry, u cry. It conveyed real life problems, feelings and basically everything that people might experience.
If someone who wants to watch the movie but doesnt know if its worth it is reading this, watch it but be prepared.
Its just a beautiful movie.

This movie its sad. I wanted to say that. Actually, sad its an understatement.
This will be the whole review. If you wanna watch something sad by definition, do it. But be aware of mentions and scenes of homo**obia. The acting is amazing, they re able to make you feel the sadness, trauma and anger the protagonist felt.
Besides the beating scene that made me happy because that horrible human deserved it, its sad all the way through. Even the 18+ scenes have some kind of sad feel to them. The ending its, again, sad (no surprise there). I wish this would ve had a sequel or something because the characters deserved one and i wanted to see if they ever meet again and maybe have a happy ending. I guess we cant always get one.

Possible spoilers

I ll start off by saying i rarely write reviews so for me to sit here and write about this movie means a lot.

I wont say its bad. What i will say tho its that its one of the most confusing movies i ve ever watched. They changed the scene every 20 mins with barely any backstory. You dont often see a movie with possibly every sensitive topic but this ? They ve put everything in it, from r*pe to attempting su*cide, mostly everything. And then, they tried to incorporate the romantic aspect. After everything i saw in this movie, i was supposed to be all "aw how cute, they re hugging" ? I wont lie, i started nervously laughing when i saw they were trying to show an actual love relationship. I dont judge or discriminate peoples kinks, everyone is entitled to like what they want, but if you re not into sado-maso stuff, i suggest you dont watch it because you wont really understand it since you cant relate to them.

One of the most underrated BL dramas and SPOILERS

I wanna start of by saying i watched a lot of BL dramas. This one is, by far, one of the most underrated ones. When i first looked up the title and i saw the rating i thought wow whats wrong with this. Then, i saw people saying they didnt understand it and that the editing was weird etc. I can see what they mean by that, but tbh it wasnt that hard to follow along and understand it. Also, the storyline? the plot? the acting? AMAZING. It has what it needs to draw you in and make you keep wanting to watch the next episode. I watched all of it in one night just because i wanted to see what happens next. The nsfw scenes were well thought of, they werent too explicit and not too boring because some can be. The way i was actually more interested in the storyline and everytime a 18+ scene came on i was saying "come on i wanna see what happens next". In conclusion, this is one of the best BL dramas of this kind ( gangs, violence, and pure DRAMA) so it deserves a way higher rating than it has. Also the plot twists? Im not even gonna get into that. GIVE THIS DRAMA THE ATTENTION IT DESERVES!!
