Korean BL's Continue To Tease Me
Why Korea!? Why are you making these series so damn short!? This is another one where if it had even more time to develop it could've been great, much like "Wish You"! I wanted more showing of dance and competition because that's heavily implied for the title. But trying to crame both a love story and competition into 8 episodes that are only like 15 mins each is virtually impossible. I don't blame the creators at all, just wished they'd start to realize that these series are worth more time into. There was also the storyline of Shi-On's mother. So a lot of material! What a crappy mom btw, you can get remarried and not literally ignore your children afterwards! She even took his loan money and didn't even care to pay back. Trash and he deserves better. Poor baby.
Maybe this one will get the "movie treatment" too where they cluster the episodes together and add in extra content?
I do think these 2 leads had way more chemistry than "Wish You" meaning I believed it more overall romantically. Maybe it's how progressive things were shown and it felt more natural? The kisses in this were wayyyy better too. Whereas in "Wish You" it was cute, but didn't really have any sexual tension. Shi On showing Hong Seok the audition dance was actually really well done and had me feeling butterflies the way it was laid out into the bed/love scene. Well done show well done! Also not something showed in many Korean BL's so yay! Progress!
The ending episode with the breakup cop-out was annoying, but it ended happily ultimately so whatever. I'm conflicted by this one, I think it will go in the pretty good pile. There were some things I really loved about it and others needed some work. Not my favorite of the Korean BL dramas (that still goes to "Color Rush", "To My Star" and "Long Time No See") but it's definitely worth a watch! I would even say watch this over "Wish You" tbh. Also the soundtrack for this one is really really good. So download that if you can!
