It was a hot mess...but I was entertained
Lord have mercy! What was this that I watched?! I mean...I am flabbergasted and confused and just...wow. However, I will say there were some good aspects as well as bad. And Gen Y did carry me through so much emotions than any other BL series have done.
Story-7/10 (Overall)
Secondary characters- 8/10
I'm doing this in parts, cause some were awesome and some I wanted to strangle as their storyline annoyed the hell out of me or, worse yet- their story wasn't even told in this series. Starting right off the bat- they were too many characters to focus on and, due to this, they weren't develop properly. Heck, we are literally left hanging cause we still don't know what went down with Thanu and Padbok. But some of the minor characters did entertain me- heck even more than Wayu's storyline. Sab, Jack and Koh were the highlights for me as secondary characters.
Mark and Kit-10/10
I came for them and I stayed for them! They were awesome! I loved their chemistry and their scenes together. If the show was just on them with less episodes, I would love this series. The last two episodes I was a bit annoyed due to the lack of scenes with these two boys. But I do understand- thier story was basically done, so they began to put focus on Wayu and friends as well as Tong and Pok.
Tong and Pok-7/10
These guys confused the crap out of me. In the beginning, you can see Pok likes Tong. But then Tong tells him he can't kiss him as he is saving his kiss for the person he loves, which apparently is Pok, I think? A lot of things happened for them to apparently not like each other. But their relationship progressed and they wound up sleeping together. However, I won't count on a happy ending for these guys as Pok still doesn't know what Tong did (change the exams paper to make sure Pok would pass the exams and get in a university).
Wayu/Thanu/Phai/Pha-4/10
I have NEVER hated a storyline soooo much! This damn thing making me think of back in the day shows on the WB/CW where their focus was on an annoying love triangle. Who really asked for this?! It was cool in the beginning showing Wayu was moving on. And then they introduced Phai, whose the soulmate of Thanu. And THEN they said that Thanu was the soulmate of Wayu. AND THEN they bring back Pha, making me fricking annoyed, cause if Wayu chooses Pha then all of this would be for nought! (he better not choose that di#$head, cause he made Wayu cried to damn much in this series and also thier relationship was basically based on a lie as it was Thanu who saved him when he fell down and not Pha ). Pha has truly made me hate an ex of a main character. All of this crap and I still don't care who ends up who!
Acting/Cast-7/10
Hey, I may not like the series, but these guys can act! They made me giddy, happy, angry, sad and annoyed. They kept my attention on this series, although they were times I was screaming angrily on the inside as I watch the story progress.
Music- 7/10
I liked the music!
Rewatch Valu-5/10
I can honestly say they are some parts that I would watch. And some that I would gladly skip (chough, chough 'Wayu/Thanu/Phai/Pha's storyline' chough, chough).
Overall-7/10
My overall score is 6.5. HOWEVER, I am gonna give it a 7 due to the fact that I want a season two. Why? Not for any of the characters here. I read somewhere as well as saw that Tae and Tee MAY star in it. And I miss these boys. I was robbed of seeing them together in the continuation of 2 Moons. They played friends in Hotel Stars and not lovers. They better really be in the second season as a couple cause I have been denied of them for too long!
