I actually enjoyed the slow-burn between Ethon and Martin more than the first season. Their rivalry felt real, and when they finally gave in to their feelings, it was so satisfying. The GL side couple also stole my heart—wish they had more screen time!

The plot is an absolute mess. Characters make baffling decisions—like the manager letting a known spy run rampant? And the ending ‘it was all a dream’ twist is just lazy writing. Some pretty shots can't save a story that collapses under its own weight.

Visually, this is one of the better Filipino BLs I've seen. The lighting in the rural scenes, the contrast between Manila's neon and Martin's hometown—gorgeous. Even if the script falters, the cinematography kept me glued to the screen.

I appreciate the attempt at GL representation, but the toxic behaviors in the main couple's dynamic—manipulation, lack of clear consent early on—are concerning. The series doesn't really address these issues, which feels like a missed opportunity for deeper storytelling.
