I didn’t like the main heroine much but bonus points to the drama that it didn’t try to sell her behavior as normal, that it - and Teddy - acknowledged that she was a nut and immature to boot. So yeah, good.
But besides that, this drama was an interesting take on fan service. Teddy and Pascal were best friends and they were extremely popular at the university, so much so that their fan club started shipping them and they played into that with various fan-service-y things, up to and including kissing. Their popularity really helped them with their projects etc. But then their fan club started taking it too far...
Interesting is that several years later, New Thitipoom who played Pascal fell victim to the same thing, to fans taking fan service way too far, and they made his life a living hell. They insisted that, when he announced he had a girlfriend, he was cheating on Tay and destroying the TayNew ship and they cyber bullied him so badly that he actually deleted all his social media for a while and though he still remains friends with Tay - luckily, those jerks didn’t manage to destroy that - he now keeps a noticeable distance at any official outing. It was really a case of life imitating art. Unfortunately.
Overall, this drama was worth watching for Teddy and Pascal. Their friendship gave me warm fuzzies. They had so much obvious love for each other. Though I wish we were told why Pascal was actually living with Teddy in his villa...
