Picture this – eight men living together for a month, falling in love, The Boyfriendpartners amongst themselves, all while running a coffee business. Welcome to “The Boyfriend”, a revolutionary Japanese reality show now available on Netflix. Beyond traditional reality TV tropes, Netflix brings us a show filled with sensitivity and kindness.

Set in a house known as the “Green Room” – a term drawn from surfing where it refers to the tube formed inside a wave – the show captures the shared journey of these men as they navigate love, relationships and business. Over the course of a month, they coexist in a setup that brilliantly blends romance and entrepreneurship.

“The Boyfriend” is a tranquil reality show that, unlike its counterparts, avoids conflict and drama. Instead, it features calm, reflective, and sensitive individuals, steering clear of the classic formula of reality shows that thrive on fights and conflicts.

Three episodes have aired so far, but the series is far from over. We eagerly anticipate more episodes coming in the near future. “The Boyfriend” has been available on Netflix since July 9. Dive into the serenity of this show, and enjoy a refreshing reality TV experience.
