I’ll be frank, the first time I watched this I was really into the first couple episodes, and then got kind of turned off of it when I felt like the relationship development had been rushed (unfortunately, due to COVID-19). After which point, I really wasn’t impressed.

Now, I do still feel like Saifah and Zon’s sudden keenness on one another was a little jarring, but the second watch felt a little more organic. Really, the second watch had me appreciating Fighter and Tutor way more than I had in the first watch. They had electric chemistry, some of the best in I’ve seen in a BL, and I can’t believe I didn’t acknowledge this with my first viewing.

There’s essentially two stories, which they somehow made work despite the fact that it could have easily gotten extremely messy. Especially considering the fact that each has a completely different tone. Saifah and Zon’s story is definitely geared toward comedy. They bounce off of each other well and Zon’s friends are kind of hilarious in all honesty. Fighter and Tutor’s story is more of a horny drama with a lot of repressed feelings. Love the enemies to lovers storyline, especially with how absolutely Whipped Fighter is for Tutor.

Acting was pretty good. Saint has definitely improved since Love by Chance which was cool to see. Especially since Tutor was so different from Pete.

The OST was a ton of fun. I’ve downloaded like half the songs.

If you asked we a week ago whether or not I recommend Why R U, I would have said no. However, this rewatch has definitely changed my tune. I would recommend this drama for anyone looking for a BL with a good mix of comedy to drama. Alongside the great cast and sizzling chemistry, it’s absolutely worth the watch.
