Don't bother

Was disappointed with this series mainly because after so many drama series together I expected OffGun to have more chemistry, but unfortunately not. Gave this show a chance just because they were acting in it. The script was kindda lame too. The many times they asked each other how to calm their nerves, which was just used as an excuse to kiss each other, was super duper cringe. The kisses were also cringe and unbelievable (newsflash: people don't kiss irl without moving their lips). Unfortunately for me, OffGun were the weakest actors in the cast. I was surprised by Aungpao though, a new actor, who provided comedic relief without being slapstick. His pairing with Neo who is always good in his roles, was fun to watch. Dome was excellent as well but Tum was kindda over the top. This show doesn't really have much in terms of plot. Storyline is shallow, unrealistic and slapstick. A waste of time.

Cute but would not watch again

Acting:
Acting in general was ok. I think the standouts for me were Ciize, View and Love. They all protrayed their roles well and with emotional depth. Ongsa's character was a disappointment. I'm not sure if it was Milk or that the script confined her to this bratty, whiny, crying, annoying girl but I could not stand her character.

Plot:
I think the plot was weak in the sense that it was unrealistic.
Firstly, everyone accepts everyone and loves everyone. We all know that's not the case irl.
Secondly, the plot point about Earth lying to Sun would have been such a huge point to expand on to show character growth and depth and lessons but nothing happened. Earth cried a bit, avoided Sun and Sun herself had to reconcile with herself and go and seek Earth out. WHAT??? That makes zero sense to me and would not happen irl.
Thirdly, no one, not even both sets of parents nor friends are shocked that girls are dating girls. They are all preachy lovey you can love anyone you want to like from the get go. I know the show wants to make these homosexuality unsurprising and untaboo, but disregarding that, even dating in high school, surely some parents would be worried. Partners sleeping over in each other's houses in high school? Parents wouldn't normally allow that, regardless of gender. It feels like everyone is just too chill and unbothered in this show.
The break up reason was lame. Until now I still don't understand why Love broke up with Ongsa - I think Ongsa is still clueless too.
I feel like the breakup scene was so forced like they tried to force a problem on them and then they quickly make up and get back together. What???
Also the chemistry between Milk and Love - you can tell they are just good friends. There's no sexual tension, no romantic feelings. They say they love each other (wayyyyy too quickly for high school students btw) but what does it actually mean?
Also, not everyone needs to be coupled up in a show you know!? It's OK for the majority of people to remain single. Why did they have to couple up the boys and the teachers too? What value does that add to the show?
Aylin and her partner (can't even remember her name) was a strange coupling up too. They fell in love - how? Why? Why are they attracted to each other? It was utterly unconvincing.
The plot frustrated the hell out of me and it felt like it let the actors down and was just lazy writing.
I'm glad that gmmtv gave GLs a chance but I feel like it let the actors and audience down when it could have done more. Just because we are starved for GLs doesn't mean we will take anything.

Mindboggling

Mindboggling plot - some parts of the story are too high level for me to understand. Left me and a lot of others guessing. The show ended on a cliffhanger too which I was kindda annoyed about. The actors were excellent though, no complaints there. Each and every one of them. This show touches on many serious and dark topics. It's good that they brought them to light but it makes it difficult to rewatch, although the acting, especially from Singto and Fluke, was perfection.

Crazy in love!

Am almost finished with the series and am LOVING the chemistry between TayNew! Can I applaud their amazing acting skills (especially Tay who has levelled up a lot since 3 Will be Free). Yes some of the scenes are kindda over the top and exaggerated because its written by Japanese. It's not my thing but I can understand why they had to act this way. TayNew make me blush so hard at some scenes, it's a miracle they can act them with a straight face. The 2 side couples are cute too. I also love all the colleagues in the office. It's just a feel good show with a lot of love without being too overboard. Will watch again!
