It is both a love story and a psychological drama, a harem drama and a tragedy. It's not a simple H fan, nor is it a light-hearted R, but a work with deep connotations and thoughts. It is not a work for everyone, nor is it a work that can be easily judged, but a work that needs to be understood and felt with the heart.
