An underrated LGBTQIA+ series
From the director of Gaya Si Pelicula (Like in the movies), THIS SERIES SCREAMS PERFECTION indeed. There wasn't a single moment I wanted to skip a scene. No cringey scene, no cheesey romance shit, just people being themselves and the story just went smoothly. The story shows the dedication and fight of King for opening a LGBTQIA+ club in their college which is in the jurisdiction of local church. There he met a lot of allies, homophobes and a reason to stay in Marahuyo Island.
If you're looking for NC scenes like Thai, sorry you won't get any. If you're looking for hot kisses like Taiwan and you won't get that either. But what you'll get is true satisfaction of watching a LGBTQIA themed content being honest with its promises. Filipino dramas feel a journey to your neighborhood of friendly and outspoken neighbours sharing their daily lives with a big smile on their face.
Actors were amazing! From the beginning the character King seemed like long lost brother of Bretman Rock, which is I was hooked from the very beginning! His acting is spontaneous and full of life. Another actor who needs to be applauded that is the character Venice! Oh my my, his character arc mind-blowing. Venice was such a sassy little queen of the show >.<
This is the type of ending I love. An ending showcasing realistic approach to life and real events with full of hope. It was a short series with 8 eps yet it said and expressed a lot more than you think.
Before fighting the whole world you need to fight with your family first. And if you win, you can win any situation in your life with their love and support.
Not to forget the OST, it's a lullaby to ears. The soothing & calming music just blends in with the storyline and gives you the compact feeling.
