This is the second vertical AI BL drama I've sat through, and honestly I went in knowing better. I had it on while I was doing cardio at the gym, and what struck me was just how much the plot echoed the last one I watched. Same step brother romance angle, same mystery girlfriend showing up near the end, same extra guy pining after one of the leads. Genuinely the only thing going for it was the runtime, the whole thing wrapped up in forty five minutes flat. The setup kicks off with Finn moving schools because his mom just married into money. He finds out his new step brother Aiden goes to the same place, and he's warned to keep his distance from him. Their first run in at school is rocky, just like you'd expect, but there's this odd pull between them neither can shake off. Finn keeps telling himself not to read into it because Aiden's straight and openly homophobic. Things shift when some kids start bullying Finn and the student council president, Ryan, steps in to ...
It is the story of two worlds. Navee is a young man who works at a radio station. At the halloween party, another man dressed in traditional royal clothes catches his attention but disappears. The same guy starts showing up as a ghost at his apartment at regular intervals scaring Navee. Navee tries making offerings and prayers but nothing helps, so he eventually gives in. The man tells him that he is a prince from 2000 years ago and he has not crossed over and it would happen only when Navee remembers everything. Slowly love Strats Tod develop between the two in this world and in small fragments, Navee starts to remember what happened. About 2000 years ago, that guy was a king and Navee was a soldier who took care of him , but they became lovers. The king did not like the idea and got the soldier killed and the prince took his own life. Interestingly, now that Navee has remembered everything, the ghost can cross over and he disappears, leaving Navee completely heart broken and dejected. At the next halloween and fun moon though, the ghost reappears but this time in human form so that they can be together.
The story had potential, but these days the attention span of audience is so little. Just continuing to watch Navee and the ghost falling in love as human-ghost is endearing but also gets tedious at time. Several episodes were tedious, repetitive, and lackluster. While the concept was great, it simply droned on too long with the same mundane storylines going nowhere which caused you to lose interest. What was entertaining was the fact that, at times, the main protagonists were quite good and surprisingly effective, given the fantasy nature of the story. But story wise there is not much movement. The actor playing the ghost was quite hot and loved googling at his bare chested torso and nipples. I laughed when Navee asks him top put in clothes because his nipples distracted him I knew I was feeling the same. Navee here was the central character but his acting needs improvement. There was a lot to be desired there. They had decent chemistry and clearly this show was made on a super low budget. There were a lot of making out and simulated sex scenes. At point, it felt that love for them meant just having sex. Some kisses were good though. Overall, a simple story line and alright premise that had no reason to go for a long time. If yuck and somehow fast forward and watch some cutesy moments between the couple, Then it's fine. Thankfully there were no other random parallel stories for a change. (5/10)
