1. Awwww….Is it wrong for me to be disappointed with this ‘artsy wishy washy’ sort of an ending???!!!!! We can be realistic, we cannot spect for the gloomy and the grey and the troubled life to be wisked away just because…but I was really looking forward to shared smiles and a clear display of affection and acceptance of each other? I don´t necessarily mean a heavy kiss, initmacy or sex…just a bit of clearly shown warth towards each other?

3. As expected from this production. They never leave an obvious clear ending..but one that makes u want more answers… and leaves u feeling many things.

   I hate guessing what may have happened cause i get wild with my theories 🤣

4. Beautiful, bittersweet series. Director was confident that audience is capable of understanding and putting pieces together without over explaining everything. Quite rare and bold choice nowadays, but I appreciated that. As far as production itself, both boys did a great job, and cinematographer gave us some quite beautifully composed scenes. I liked this a lot.

5. So he wants him to be independent and not rely on him as his home and if he does that then they can be in a relationship? It’s hard to figure out the ending.

6. In a way even though the ending is had to piece together. I think in the end they stayed together and are working through their problems.
   I really enjoyed this and the realistic-ness of it all.
   Would not mind a s2 either.

10. Ok, this was a vague ending. Seems like they came to a mutual agreement to try and live a normal life TOGETHER, so it is a happy ending for them. There were still some things left unresolved such as touching upon the reason why the older brother always felt guilty. What did he do in the past that everyone resents him for running away from? But then again, since this was a 5 ep series, maybe the writers intentionally did not delve too much into the subplots as that might’ve been difficult to manage in the short amount of time, while making sure the leads’ story is fully developed.

    Having said that, I enjoyed the series for what was prented on our screens. I liked how it tried to portray life as it is. It’s not always pretty and you have to work around that. The acting was was good and I could see these actors working well mainstream.

11. Well that was a completely confusing ending. They are kissing but breaking apart. My assumption with plans for the future to not be apart?. Ugh no idea but that ending left me feeling betrayed. I was invested and that was a sorta modge podge of what shoulda been included. I said this on another drama post on this site. Like it’s okay to just focus on just two characters in a crama this short we actually don’t care if the dad went to prison or the workplace has a two for one coupon. Most of the scenes need to be shot linar with a straight forward simple moving forward plotline and no distractions. Every interaction needs to move the plot, not add something new to think of and explore. We are not shooting long form. We don’t have time to explore why, anything outside the main plotline happened. In this it’s already so streamlined and yet I think some stuff could still have been cut. We are being given such short short scenes world building is not necessary we actually don’t need to go to six different drinking scenes. Maybe all six could have been condensed to two. The father and mother could have been one scene condensed together. One episode for family drama. These studios have to stop trying to follow the big studios sixteen step kdrama rehabilitation plan to finding your one true love. They don’t have that kinda time. And so the development in the end falls flat. This had so much potential and it was even capable of working with 5 episodes 6-8 would have been slightly better. But 5 was workable for sure. If they left the right stuff on the cutting floor.

12. It’s good, but it’s not the usual fluffy kind of bl series. Though they decided to give themselves a shot of normalizing life together (in other words “happy ending”) they still have issues with their own biological fathers.

    The good thing I like about Gray Shelter is that it is very realistic. Life can be complicated for some. Another good thing is the acting. I can relate with their characters and feel their inner struggle. Though I don’t like that Yoon Dae is drifting his life with an uncertain plan I know that he craves love and a home which he lacked growing up. As for his older brother, he does not want to face criticism from his own family like when he was younger.

    Overall, I’ll give this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ full mark and recommend it.
