A blossoming gay coming-of-age love story sweeter than cherry for the soul
Everything about this drama is so utterly cue, down-to-earth adorable, and wholesome, I CAN'T!! Each episode is a fluffgasm to the soul. I was nervous about how they planned to adapt an R-18 BL manhwa and due to censorship, they adapted the wholesome S2 plot and I'm glad everything tied up nicely at the end tho with them even getting married, SQUEEEL!! The actors were good but not as great as Semantic Error acting since the only downside was Tae-song's actor seemed stiff at times compared to the expressive class shown by Hae-bom's actor and CAN WE STOP WITH THE AWKWARD RUNNING SCENES DIRECTOR ON GOD, THEY MAKE ME THINK OF DASHI RUN RUN smh. If I had any other complaints, it would be the awkward directing in the first few episodes, you do not make an entire crowded set quiet for a scene, that's not how realistic BG noises and direction work. They had really cute chemistry together and their dynamic was a feast for the pure soul, with their height difference and kisses. Also, that shower and bedroom scene was just ooof 10/10 in spice, god damn Tae-Song❤️! Haebom being brave and talking directly to Taesung's mom was everything ?????? The cozy vibes and ending scene gave me goosebumps it was so freaking romantic I am literally deceased after the couple/engagement ring exchange?? pls South Korea make more shows like this, semantic error and to my star, I need more of these shows in my lifeWas this review helpful to you?
The most beautiful anti-bullying coming-of-age love story set in a dog eat dog world
Whoa... "Better Days" is super intense yet beyond amazing. The whole cast did a fantastic job and the production value is incredible, no wonder this movie got an Oscar nomination. Well deserved, as it shined a light and brought more awareness to bullying.Wtf is wrong with the police/detectives in this? Do they really think Chen Nian would come back a second time for help after she already filed a complaint the first time and they did nothing about the bullying? Sad to say but this is a dog-eat-dog world nowadays and you practically have to learn to defend yourself because not many people are going to take your side or protect you from harm. Chen Nian had no one else to turn to except for Xiao Bei and let me just say their love was so damn pure. They could feel each other's pain and understand one another on a totally different level while knowing what it is like to be an outcast or left behind. Now don't even get me started on that glow-up (which had me screaming)... Chen Nian only wants to succeed while protecting the world and Xiao Bei's new purpose is wanting to protect the person he loves while living a thug-free life. Glad the police/detectives talked her into doing the right thing by not letting Xiao Bei take all the blame. Perfect ending.
This was beautiful. definitely one of the best movies I've ever watched, everything about it was breathtaking, the acting was perfect, especially the two main characters, they really made me feel connected to them and to their emotions, just beautiful.
The fact that that man lead was ready to sacrifice everything for the woman lead really showed how pure yet mature the love that he has for her and his will to protect her. just beautiful.
The way this movie showed how ruthless some people can be and in this case, "teens" is really scary and painful to watch knowing that it's true.
Yet again I say a beautiful movie with beautiful acting that really made it more special in my eyes. One of the greatest cinematic masterpieces in China......

Only a genius could love a woman like Lynn~~
GODAMN THIS BLEW MY MIND AWAY IN THE BEST POSSIBLE, THE EDITING, ACTING, PRODUCTION, DIRECTING, SCREENPLAY, TIGHT-KNIGHT STORY, AND THE GENIUS ELABORATE CHEATING SCHEME ALL TOOK ME BY SURPRISE AND HOOKED ME TO AN ANXIETY TRAIN SPANNING 2HRS OF ME BEING STRESSED AF!! AND HOW TF DID THEY MANAGE TO MAKE ONE OF THE MOST ANXIETY-RIDE TO HELL ABOUT SHARING MCQ ANSWERS. LOVE THE GENIUS ELABORATE MINDS OF THE DIRECTOR NAT AND SCREENWRITER VASU AND TANIDHA, THIS WAS WAY TOO SMART SMH!OMG this was so stressing I wanted to pull out my hair. But it was so fucking good...ALSO QUICK DETOUR TO THE ACTORS, I WAS SO SURPRISED TO HEAR THAT EVERYONE EXCEPT THE DAD WAS INEXPERIENCED IN THIS FIELD, AND DAMN, DID NO ONE EVEN GIVE A SIGN OF EVEN A SLIP, THAT'S HOW GREAT OF AN ACTOR EVERYONE WAS HERE ESPECIALLY MY THAI QUEEN CHUTIMON. FOR A MODEL-MADE ACTOR, THE WAY SHE MADE ME ROOT AND UNDERSTAND HER MORALLY AMBIGUOUS DECISIONS WAS SPECTACULAR. I LOVE LYNN'S MORALLY AMBIGUOUS CHARACTER AND HOW SHE MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE, IN THE END, TO COME CLEAN. SHE'S DEFINITELY A COMPLEX CHARACTER AND ONE HELL OF 200 IQ GENIUS~~~
I feel sorry for Bank though... I mean, it ruined him. If only they didn't drag him into that shit he would've gotten the scholarship and became successful while still being good and all... For Lynn, I love the character development. She's a smart girl and I'm proud of her, ALSO FUCK MYOU GRACE AND PAT YOU FALE ASS BITCHES. NONE OF YOU EVER CONSIDERED HER A FRIEND. LYNN DESERVED BETTER. GOOD THING NONE OF YOU WILL EVER MAKE IT TO COLLEGE ANYWAY. I love how Lyn realized that she should face her wrongdoings and admit to her mistakes. The touching part was her father supported her all the way but I felt sorry for Bank, money changed him. He was an honest person but he became corrupted. Lynn is my fav 100 IQ GENIUS CHARACTER EVER WRITTEN IN A MOVIE!! This movie is truly the best THAI movie I've ever watched.

BE GAY, DO CRIME AT IT'S HISTORICAL FINEST~~
Much sexy, much love, much wow.Nothing beats having two lesbians happily in love and a happy ending.
do...
The sound of bells and the peaceful moon at the end do justice to the storyline, a beautiful way to drop the curtains. Although yes the movie should be tagged mature for the content.
When you start the movie you feel like a simple con movie? That's it? But at the end who gets coned for real is the real deal. In the end, you feel like no I can not continue this but pleasant it has been.
The complicated nature of humans comes to the surface in this stellar movie. Respect for the actors.
If you think about it, LOVE was what saved them, if both of them continued their initial scheme, they wouldn't have ended up together, if both of them viewed money as their ultimate goal, either one of them would've died. But they chose LOVE in the end, despite the odds, they believed in each other and I think... that's really beautiful. :') ♡
Plot twists at its best. :')
I would definitely recommend this to my fellow LGBTQ+ but only if they're above 21. ;)
To the people who made this film possible and my new women empowerment queen Jung Seo Kyung, kamsahamnida!
Sincerely,
Your gay mind blown viewer
Final Rating: 10/10
