Aah!! My obsession with these vertical dramas.. no end to it. I love the fact that I love to hare these micro dramas but secretly I continue to watch them, because guess what! They keep coming in. They all pretty much follow the same pattern which I have repeatedly mentioned with one mafia, a straight man repeating that he is not gay, an evil female vamp, some shooting, some drama and all is well that ends well. This is no different.
A mafia boss Sable is being chased and gets shot. He is saved by a doctor Daymond, who, when he sees the ring on his fingers thinks that he is the same guy who likely killed his father in a cartel bust. The guy runs a gambling casino and it turns out that the doctor's younger brother has sufficient debt, which he is willing to forego if Daymond will become his personal doctor. Clearly Sable is completely smitten by him, and our doctor keeps making it clear that he is not into men. Daymond sees this as an opportunity to find out the truth about what happened with his father. Then there is this other family who wants to get into the casino business and they propose marriage between their daughter with mafia boy who doesn't like the idea. More shootings, more killings where this evil female does everything in power for money and business, while the boss continues to woo the doctor. Thanks to his brother's gambling addiction, Daymond is forced to stay with Sable, but slowly things start to unravel on how this evil family might have been the ones responsible and not the boss. As expected, the doctor suddenly starts to fall for him too. As the summary says "When a ruthless mafia boss crosses paths with a compassionate and doctor, their lives collide in an unexpected journey of obsession and affection. What begins as a tense power struggle, evolves into mutual love neither of them saw coming."
Please continue to watch these shows devoid of any logic. You watch these micro dramas for guilty pleasure, for eye candy, for some hot torsos. Usually I have noticed a pattern that these kinda shows often take one lead as a twink and other more macho. For a change, here they both look alpha males and their enemies to lovers story becomes interesting, although there is no ample reason to believe that the doctor would suddenly start to fall for a guy. Sexuality just doesn't change randomly. There is absolutely nothing new being offered here. Honestly, I think it's the overflow of such dramas. If there was like one a month or something, the novelty would continue but otherwise I dont think this is going to last. Also, can we please move away from the whole mafia trope for these dramas? I mean, like what is the obsession with mafias and gangs and showing gay love there. There are hundreds of other careers where you could show a similar love story. I guess I will have to wait. Till then just be happy with some good eye candy. (3/10)
