KUMASHOCK
Just lacking.
I want to call out all of them bitches here because you're all damn LIARS!!!
Let me tell you something: If you're not going to give a thoughtful and constructive review of the drama (story, acting, writing, etc.), please, STAY AWAY FROM THE REVIEW SECTION! I was fooled by all of you who tried so hard to give a good review to a show that doesn't deserve it! Honey, if something is bad then something is bad, period. That being said, just because you're a fan of an actor/actress, doesn't mean that every single project they work on is automatically good. Some things are bad and they should be called out for it. Lastly, with all due respect, NOBODY CARES ABOUT THE DUDE'S NIPPLES, BARBARA, GET YOUR FETISHES OUT OF THE REVIEW SECTION!

Rant's over, let me talk about this show:
Long story short, it was poorly made. There's so much that could be improved from EVERY aspect of it and, honestly, there are so many faults that it's insane someone could come up with the audacity to tell me this is actually good.
- Story: What is even the story in here? This is just a conglomeration of people's petty "struggles" that do not seem to get better even though they are improving. I was constantly asking to myself, "but do they *really* regret their actions? "Are they *really* learning from their mistakes?" "Why are these college students acting like they are still in high school or elementary school?" And I'm still wondering these things.
I happened to watch this drama before the movie and oh my goodness this made the movie look like a work of art. It was actually quite good, so you should definitely go and watch that instead.
Something that I did like about this work is the inclusion of heterosexual relationships. As a gay man, I always enjoy when they add these relationships because it shows the audience a sense of normality and harmony between diverse sexual orientations. Surprisingly, I personally feel like the heterosexual couples were far more entertaining to watch. Why? Because they were fleshed out nicely and we got to have a full picture of their story with a beginning, a middle, and a solid conclusion.
- Acting: Lord have mercy. I mean, were they even trying? Everyone was pretty painful to watch, but the worst was definitely the female swimmer. It was staged-looking and predictable, incredible lack of chemistry, terrible dialogues, and more. If I have to be nice, I guess the two actors that did better were Apo's and Wan's.
-Production: This is from 2017 and I did not expect a lot from it, BUT Love Sick was older and looked better than this. Let's assume that the recording equipment was not of the best quality which caused things turning out looking quite cheap instead of believing the production team just straight up sucked.
The editing was decent at the beginning, but gradually became a mess the more we got into the story. Did they even try on the last two episodes? I doubt it. By the way, I am surprised at the lack of swimming from a story about swimming. I was expecting something similar to Free! Iwatobi Swim Club, but got not even a shadow of that.
Sis, this show has everything: questionable cast, questionable acting, questionable writing, questionable fashion (that actually works), questionable sexual orientation, questionable fandom, just questions all over the place. I do not recommend watching this, but watch the movie, though! It was pretty decent.
