A feel-good show and a great display of friendship.
If you're looking for a slice of life show with great depiction of friendship, this is the show for you.The fact that this show has little to no plot is a thing you need to know before clicking play on the 1st episode. It uniquely revolves around love and friendship and i actually enjoyed it for what it was.
Were the 16 episodes necessary? I don't think so. Don't get me wrong i love a good slowburn with my pairings but if it starts becoming total nonsense just to keep the slowburn going then i don't want it. This is why i had a hard time getting into Phum and Peem at first.
Anyways, they did a great job at introducing the different characters and their individualities which isn't easy when you have a million of them.
4 couples in a bl show is definitely a challenge but i personnally think that they succeded at that (?), i just wish we didn't waste that much screentime on Phum and Peem's relationship when we had a whole ChainPun right beside them.
I'm gonna sound biased but the highlight for me was definitely Tan et Fang, their backstory was actually refreshing and surprising at the same time. Aou and Boom's chemistry is impeccable and i just needed more of them in every episode.
I'm not big on gmmtv osts but i have to say that the main one was actually really nice and it brought a great touch to the romantic scenes.
Would i rewatch this show? Probably not because while it was a nice watch, 16 episodes were a lot for this kind of storyline and some parts didn't keep my attention for long.

Confusing at first but incredible acting.
I wasn't planning to watch it at first but then i followed the mass.I'm gonna be honest the first few episodes were kind of confusing to me but once i got the hang of the plot then i started to get invested in the characters.
The story is something i've never seen before in bl and the way they executed it was quite good, it could have been better for some parts but overall this was enjoyable.
Joe is an absolute sweetheart, i couldn't help but feel bad for him literally every second of this damn show. I have no idea if Poom is a new actor or not but his performance was pretty impressive.
I still don't like Ming and i had a really hard time believing in his redemption arc or whatever they tried with his character.
Tong was despicable and i hate HATE that he got an happy ending.
Everybody was so good but i have to give it up to the main leads for their incredible and believable performances.
The music wasn't noticeable to me and i dont think this is a show i would rewatch. I feel that once you know the twists and turns they gave us every week it's not interesting to watch this again.
Overall this show was a nice surprise, i wasn't expecting anything from it but everyone did a great job. I don't agree with some people calling it the best show from 2024, there's a few that i'm enjoying way more but this was a great project nonetheless.
