Fantastic!
I loved this so much! Mainly because out of all of the BL series I've seen, this was just... different? No generic college storyline, no cringey characters, no fake emotion or unnecessary dramatic acting.
Firstly, the storyline was perfect, I wish it was longer but I can't complain because every scene was relevant and executed fantastically. I liked the authenticity of the story - it wasn't exaggerated or unrealistic (unlike a lot of BLs...). Seeing both Teh and Oh Aew finding themselves was such a pleasure to watch.
I was pleasantly surprised by the acting! Usually when watching these kind of shows I'm never blown away by the acting. However, there were some really strong performances in this. Krit (Oh Aew) is a STAR! Possibly the best played character I've seen across all of the dramas I've seen. The 'bra' scene broke my heart and I thought it was the stand out scene of the entire series. It felt so real. Teh's mother is also a hoot! I loved her over the top reaction to everything, she was so charming! Tarn was also a great addition and she had some great scenes.
Will certainly be rewatching in the near future. Was delighted to find out there was a season 2 coming soon, so will be enjoying that in the mean time!
