It has potential, the story is interesting and so on and so forth. I really did like that the BL is a smaller part of a much bigger plot, while still very much present. And they are adults, not teenagers with their teenage drama but proper adults with jobs and such—that is always a plus for me.

But I just couldn't get over the constant back and forth of "Are they a good guy? Are they a bad guy?" for a bunch of the characters. A traditionally good role/character acts suspiciously, they might be bad, it gets explained, they might be good after all. Then they do something new suspicious and the cycle repeats. I much prefer the characters that gave me a clear "I'm good/bad" and then switches _once_ as a twist instead of the constant back and forth that I felt I got (both with clear doubt and more subtle hints).

It made it so that I didn't care about the characters, and therefore didn't care about the suspicions and mistrust as much as I felt like I should have. It also affected how much I could enjoy the relationship between Bun and Tan; Tan is constantly shown as suspicious while I'm supposed to root for their relationship to last or whatever? No, that just makes me want to scream "leave him" at the screen.
