What best i loved about the main characters was how shinwoo looked strong n cold yet he was so weak near tae...while tae looked naive n vulnerable but was stronger n dominant one comparatively in the relationship ...

It's so rare to see a couple where they are both awkward and introverts especially in BL. Shinwoo has the second lead vibes but actually ends up with the main lead.They are so realistic as hs boys, daon was too and I love how I wanted the best for everyone cuz their thought process made sense (except the girl). I supported them all and hated seeing any of them hurt (except the girl once in a while)

Daon is the definition of an ideal boyfriend - kind, smart and good looking. Shinwoo is the definition of a perfect boyfriend - tough, loyal and loving. Everyone thought that Daon was the endgame but after the episode where he can't handle the comments from the students, Shinwoo became my endgame. Daon is only good when everything is good while Shinwoo is good even when it's bad. Shinwoo stayed throughout Taegyung's brokenheart.

I just love how Shin Woo's ears always betray and show how he really feels.

What I love most about this is that all the characters and how they're portrayed are believable. You can connect with their feelings

[mccnbinnie]

Honestly Shinwoo whole persona in this show is so beautiful and well protracted. He come off as harsh but he's really just a softy around his friends and especial courageous when it comes for TaeKyung ❤

It's the longest bl out of SK yet... I'm getting hopeful that we'll get a full series sometime soon

It was so hard to see Shinwoo suffering for Tae. I cried in every episode because the way this character was portrayed by Yooseok was amazing. I could emphasize with him easily and I really felt that I was his friend and I suffered for him. He was like my bestie. 😅 also when he finally was accepted by Tae I was over the moon. This series will be one of my favorite and Shinwoo is definitely my favorite character of BL’s series. And yes Team Shinwoo in this life and other. 💕

Shinwoo is the character which literally saved everyone from a second lead syndrome. A realistic and interesting character unlike the usual leads

[whoknows]

No matter how much time it passes, this will always be one of the softest and most beautiful bl´s I´ve ever watched, it is so hearwarming to see, I love them.

[vanjios]

i cried sm bcs even tho shinwoo already had feelings for taekyung way longrr he still did his best to support him to confess to daon and even would support their relationship bcs taekyungs happiness was the most important to him.. im so glad they ended up together at the end

Taekyung started to change the way he viewed Shinwoo when he gave him the bandages.
He started to have feelings without really realizing it during the evening at Shinwoo's because during the scene where they thank each other 8:39, after looking at each other, Taekyung turns away, uncomfortable.
He realized his feelings during karaoke, when he saw Shinwoo give everything to make him laugh but he hid them, not being sure Shinwoo felt the same.
He started letting his feelings get the better of him as soon as he saw all the messages and Shinwoo sort of declared himself.

It's my point of view.

Shinwoo is that character that we love more than the main character. Is Anyone agreed with me?

[obhinassah]

Shinwoo wasn't that shy in( behind the scenes) he always teased taekyung to practice there kiss🤣🤣

[이십삼번]

I really liked that the characters are so interesting and not stereotypical and also that their lovestory is so innocent and doesnt have any actual obstacles (although its not necessarily realistic for homosexuals in korea yet i think its great that they showed a gay couple just like they would portrait a straight couple, too)

[azphine]

I love this drama because when I first watched it, I couldn't tell if Shin-woo hated his guts or actually liked him. But now as I watch scenes again, I realize that everything he did seemed so loving and actually made sense. His behavior reminds me of a second male lead, but I'm glad that he ended up with the main. He silently takes care of Tae-Kyung while supporting his every move. That's why I fell in love with his character.

I feel like this is the Korean bl series that really opened the door for more Korean BLs. And I’m so grateful and proud to see korea getting better and better everyday. Even if they’re baby steps they are still steps 🫶🫶🫶💗💗💗💗

[hel]

this is really a hidden gem, especially for korean bls. I really liked that all the characters were believable, and I found it interesting that while they're both introverts, you'd think they'd be timid, or one of them would be more confident, but they both had their "holy, he really said that to his face/did that" moments, haha. it was a nice watch overall.

[Fullstop-]

It's illegal to have this much chemistry

[lateramae]

I love how even before Taekyung liked Shinwoo back, he would always tease him!
