At first I thought they would extend this series with additional stories from so many side characters, but it seems that the supporting characters in this series are not used properly. This series only focuses on the 2 main characters and the story of their stupidity. That's it.
In Indonesian:
Agak kaget pas tau bahwa serial ini tamat. Saya tidak mengecek terlebih dahulu berapa episode serial ini akan berjalan, karena saya pikir dengan konflik yang ada serial ini seharusnya habis dengan begitu cepat. Eh ternyata beneran 😭
Awalnya saya pikir mereka akan memperpanjang serial ini dengan cerita tambahan dari side character yang begitu banyak, namun sepertinya tokoh-tokoh penunjang dalam serial ini tidak dimanfaatkan dengan baik. Serial ini hanya berfokus kepada 2 tokoh utama dan cerita tentang kebodohan mereka. That’s it.

Personally speaking, this series is actually interesting. With a different theme from any other series that I've been following, plus a complicated (and of course prolonged) conflicts, it makes me even more curious about the storyline of this series. Moreover, this series is played by supporting actors whose performance cannot be underestimated.
But to be honest, there are some parts where I have to speed up the pace while watching it. Not because it's too boring, but because of the limited time and long duration that made me have to manage my time effectively to be able to finish this series every week.

We’ve been reading this kind of synopsis in another (maybe 10-ish) of BL series, but still they’re trying to made this series. And stupidly I did watch this show lol
One reason that I didn’t drop this series is because I like Hae Bom’s character. I even love his development. Like a lot! If we compared with Tae Sung, he attracted me more with his charm and performance.
I knew they would put some silly girl in the middle, but I didn’t expect that kind of annoying person. I skipped a lot on that episode. 🤢

Flashback moments with a different point of view from the other characters, made me fascinated to follow this series to the end. Moreover, with a different disposition, which makes this series even more deserving of being included in my favorite series list of this year!!
In Indonesian:
Sebenarnya cerita soal cinta pertama yang dirasa ‘out of league’ ini bukan pertama kalinya dibahas dalam sebuah serial, tapi entah kenapa series ini mengemasnya dengan cukup menarik.
Kilas balik dengan sudut pandang yang berbeda dari karakter lainnya, membuatku terpesona mengikuti series ini hingga berakhir. Apalagi dengan pembawaan yang berbeda, yang membuat series ini semakin pantas masuk jajaran series favoritku tahun ini.

This is actually my second series of Up that I watched, and I think this is the best his performance compared to the previous one (which I watched). But.... my impression of Kao is quite different, which is the opposite of his co-star.
Fortunately, the songs in this series have become one of my favorite ost bl series of this year.
In Indonesian:
Jujur, saya suka sekali sama cerita series ini. Dari awal mereka bertemu hingga akhirnya jatuh hati, berpisah lalu menyatu kembali. Namun permasalahan justru ada pada beberapa karakter yang mengganggu, baik dari segi akting maupun chemistry dengan pemain lainnya.
Ini series kedua Up yang saya tonton, dan saya rasa ini adalah penampilan terbaiknya dibandingkan dengan series sebelumnya (yang saya tonton). Lain halnya kesanku terhadap Kao, yang justru berlawanan dengan lawan mainnya dalam serial tersebut.
Untung saja lagu-lagu dalam series ini masuk menjadi salah satu lagi series bl favorite saya tahun ini.

Why?
Here’s my opinion:
From the second episode I tried to guess every detail about what could happen in every episode, and all (like every one of them) of the guessing are correct. :(
Oh man, that’s not funny. I was thinking “should I continue watch this series?” and yet, here I am writing this review.
Another biggest problem that occurred to this series was the acting of some characters that really annoyed me every time they talked.

Another weakness of the entire show is the visual effects, which very disappointed me. They seem to have no intention of making this series. Or are they really lack of funds for production? damn!
In Indonesian:
Series ini sepertinya hanya menjual jajaran pemain yang spektakular, namun tidak didukung oleh penyutradaraan. Akibatnya adalah performa para pemainpun terasa sangat lemah dibanding series-series mereka sebelumnya. Yang paling terasa dari semua pemain adalah buruknya akting Fiat dan Mild pada episode 7. Gemas banget saya melihatnya! 😭
Sisi lain yang sangat mengecewakan adalah visual efek yang amat mengganggu. Mereka seperti tidak niat membuat serial ini. Atau memang kurangnya dana dalam proses produksi?

Honestly the story was quite simple with conflicts that are also not too heavy, but with good quality acting, this series cannot be denied to be completed in one day (or max 2 days) 😁
The accompaniment of beautiful songs in the ears adds to the feeling of interest in this series becoming even more brutal.
Now I'm just waiting for how their story continues. Please upload the english sub as soon as possible 😭😭😭
Translate to Indonesian:
Bulan baru masuk maret tetapi sudah disuguhi kisah sebagus ini, teruntuk series tahun 2021 yang sudah tamat maupun yang sedang berjalan harap menepi terlebih dahulu karena series ini saat ini sudah memimpin sementara dijajaran series 2021 favorit saya lol
Pengisahan yang sebenarnya hanya sementara dengan konflik yang juga tidak terlalu berat, namun dengan kualitas akting yang bagus membuat series ini tidak bisa ditolak untun ditamatkan dalam satu hari saja.
Iringan lagu yang indah ditelinga menambah rasa ketertarikan akan series ini menjadi semakin brutal.
Sekarang saya hanya menunggu bagaimana kelanjutan kisah mereka. Please percepat upload english subnya😭

This series got my attention since the pilot episode, I feel like it spoke to me how the show would gonna be. They seem promised me something great with all of those actors and story behind them, then one by one the feeling just faded. I don't know about you guys, but the ending was pretty messed up. For this kind of show, they should ended this series with an alternative version (of the final episode). It juts felt empty, boring and I don't even know how to describe it.
The good news is, this is the best series of OffGun that I've ever seen. :")

Even though they didn’t want to label this series as a BL, but the chemistry amongst the leads said the opposite. Yet, I bravely say this is still a BL series but with a lot of censorship (like every single way of BL).
After all , I am not disappointed with this series, the performance of all actors were extraordinary. Even their supporters.
In Indonesian:
Sebenarnya saya sudah siap untuk menangis pada episode terakhir, tapi saya tidak menyangka kalau saya akan menangis sambil kesal. Jahat banget mereka membuat saya tersenyum tipis kemudian dibanting menjadi tangisan.
Meskipun mereka tidak mau mencap series ini sebagai BL, their chemistry said the opposite. Bagaimanapun ini tetap BL series but with a lot censorship (like every single way of BL).
Namun saya tetap tidak kecewa dengan series ini, bagaimanapun performa kedua pemain utama sangat luar biasa. Ditambah dukungan para supported actors yang juga tak kalah hebat.

Both of the actors were great, They really are. I even loved how their eyes talked to each other without saying anything. Their performances are the only aspects that I respect of this series.
I hope someday their series would getting better, I missed the feeling of korean BL since Night Flight.

The hype that I felt in the first episode slowly faded as time goes by. After episode 2, I did realize that this series wouldn’t get any better. Even worse!
Honestly I really want to dropped this show (like any other shows that made me down), but turn out the cuteness amongst PitchBank kept me going till the last second.
Thank god they only have 8 episodes, I couldn’t imagine if they had more than 10 episodes 🤢

I started this series with hate, because my logic didn't agree what I saw on this series. How could you forgive someone who failed you? or even delaying you for your graduation? I did something terrible when my best friend took my book a month before final exam (when I was in college), I can't imagine what I would do If someone failed me on my test like sang-woo did.
But... at a leisurely pace I fell in love with this series. Especially when their feeling toward each other gradually improved in every episodes.

Why? Well, the story was quite simple and the plot seems like not going anywhere.
I love the music, even I was playing all of the soundtracks while I was taking bath.
I know that Korea is kinda new in BL, but philippines have more qualities BL series. However, I hope I could see another BL from Korea!!!

I tried to put this one next to 2gether, Gameboys or even Gayasepalikula but I think they’re not even apple to apple. This series is kinda like Your Name Engraved Herein but the deeper version.
Furthermore, every times I heard the soundtracks I feel so gloomy out of the blue.
Please no more crying in part 2, my eyes were dry 😭
