Just perfection. I have so many feelings about this show it's not even funny.
I'm in my early thirties and the thought of watching a show about high schoolers was not really appealing to me, but I kept hearing about how good this drama was. Within one episode I understood, and somehow it kept getting better as time went on. I usually go for shows with more mature themes, and this was a breath of fresh air for me. I didn't need violence, sexual content, language, etc to keep me engaged. These characters and the magic between them is so much more than enough.
Gemini and Fourth have amazing chemisty. I would watch them do anything together. Their roles in MSP are so comforting and they truly make each other shine. There were times when I was literally kicking blankets and screaming because of how cute and wholesome it was. The side characters are so endearing as well. There is a lot of depth and heart to it. If you took out all the BL elements it would STILL stand as a good show about family and platonic love.
My one complaint would be that Gunn's shyness with kissing was never addressed. I don't mind a fake-out kiss a couple of times, it just went on for so long and was never addressed (was he just nervous, or was he scared? Did he have a complex about kissing? etc). Outside of that, absolute perfection and the music was great too, which is a cherry on top since in a lot of Thai dramas the music element feels forced or shoed in.
This isn't just a good BL or a good drama, it's one of the best shows PERIOD that I've seen in a really long time and I would recommend it to anyone of any age!
