For a first impression I just have to say- this show is pretty impressive. BL I’m becoming more and more produced in a way that I’m able to take the story more seriously. Yes this show has its campy moments, but it’s not over the top with them.

The camerawork is gorgeous and clear, and so are the actors skins… to get onto what really gets me here. The new actors that have their first projects Aldo so well- and Boss is startlingly handsome. I like the appeal of the actors and they are just all naturals. I like the intrigue that Rain has for Phayu and their first meeting was jaw dropping to me. I really love my rain scenes.. and man it was POURING. What a way to start a series, very very good and this one I’ll be watching weekly.

Got to point out how it follows a lot of standard things, like going to college .. but they actually show their work and the plot developes around Rain’s school work etc. so I’m impressed by that and the school isn’t just added fluff

Rain is kind of an airhead, and I could see that to be off putting, but I like him a lot. He is really cute honestly and as dumb as he can be he has his rational
Moments. I also enjoy him for hitting Payu with a pillow, that was good for him to assert himself on that situation that Payu misread. I think they will end up together, but Payu said he is bi so there’s a slim chance that he might not. Who am I kidding they will end up together and I really like the dynamic of this popular rich hot guy being so arrogant he misreads things and being out in his place by this cute and airheaded guy that was infatuated with him.

Yes, things are problematic at times. But it feels aware as of now. And Yes, Payu is an asshole- but sometimes I root for those characters. He has thing unbreakable charm to me.

This show is far from being perfect, but its got a lot of charm and is super clean with editing and visuals, especially if you watch on IQIYI. It’s keeping the bar pretty highly raised when new BLs come in after this, this drama is so pretty and I know that some characters do stupid things but I still can’t help but like them all.

You know what I also don’t understand. The fact that this is distributed through IQIYI, the headquarters are in Beijing China which is mainland China. I thought they were going to ban BL over there, so why are they showing it on their apps. I know it’s from another country, but if it being a web thing is the case.. then why the hell can’t we get mainland China ‘BL’. Yeah I’m talking about Immortality. It’s aggravating at this point. Maybe people don’t get this show over there? But the message is still the same if the headquarters allow it everywhere.
