A Very Cute and Unique Show!
There was so much I enjoyed about this show! Everything from the storyline, the characters, and the format was all so well done and so enjoyable to watch.
To start, the concept is such a good idea! The idea of two boys meeting online during COVID lockdown and creating a relationship fully through Facebook, Instagram, and video chats. The format where we pretty much only see through the characters' screens was really cool and original, and made for some interesting moments.
The characters, and the actors portraying them, were such a delight to watch, too! Gav was such an adorable character, and his juxtaposition with Cai's grumpiness was very sweet to see. Pearl was a nice intermediary between the two of them, and she helped the story feel a little less confined. Even the love rivals who appeared throughout the series were well-written and not just one-note villains, which was really nice to see! Everyone's acting was really great, too! Even in the scenes when characters were wearing masks— their eyes were so expressive!
I think the story also had a good balance of romantic-cuteness and the seriousness of the pandemic at large. It was sweet and fluffy and escapist at times, but the characters also were struggling from being cooped up at home for so long and had some personal hardships due to COVID.
All in all, this was such a good series and I'm so glad I got the chance to watch it!
