Titled so to sound grand, actually, suits are better

Introduced in Chap of Green, this CP has forwarded to a short Bl series. I guess, the baristas found their Eden this time. Plot remains very simple. An illegitimate young master from a textile business household, suffering ochlophobia, never steps out of his premises ever since his mother's death. He wants to be acknowledged by his father who does not favor him much, having a legal family heir to take on the business. "Clothes make a man, people who don't cloth well have little to no influence in society"- Mark Twain. Storyline is similar to the K movie- The Royal tailor, but with a contrasting consequence. I was mesmerized by the multiple reflection shot framed for Chap when he decides to walk out of his sphere to explore his limits. Two good looking males casted opposite each other, being able to pull bold scenes flawlessly, having a seamless rapport is already difficult to come along. Moreover the backdrop location, art direction, properties used in each frame are picturesque. 'Warm heart' by Jeff adds to the enchantment. I don't want to complain about lack of quality in script writing but frankly i would have preferred a little more delve into Green's character as a couturier. Technically the actors have played their roles well yet there is still a void.
