It was cute, but could've been better

Could've been gayer. No reason not to watch it, but a heads up to those who are interested; there is homophobia and transphobia in it. Not uncommon for a gay show, but it's offsetting to me how trans ppl and other queer ppl were portrayed in it.








SPOILERS !!!!!!!!

No pls because it was so confusing. Everything progressed over a matter of 4 days (at least in the first like 6 episodes), which idk if you're into that, but I'm not. There was a whole episode just dedicated to them being like.. stupid and not communicating with eachother, ugh stereotypical gay troupe, over it. I don't care about Kom and Jeeb or any of the other girls or guys. Except for that one girl, Nongnan she was funny.

So much of the show was just filler. No one was there to see that one Mone guy be a shitty boyfriend, that couple didn't deserve to get as much screentime as they did. So many unnecessary scenes that literally lead to nowhere.

If you want to spend 9 hours watching a show where it's just two guys romantically staring at eachother, not breaking up with their girlfriends (cheating), not developing as a character, 87% filler, this show is for you. Like overall its a decent watch, but every review of it I'd seen was hyping it up to be this big thing.... It really wasn't. It wasn't a revolutionary romance or something interesting. It was a bunch of gay fetishization and caricatures being made out of trans people and other LGBTQ people. That and just annoying drama.

Nitpick, but, something that annoys me in lots of Bl/MLM shows I see is just whoops suddenly two very heterosexual boys have kissed and cuddled and gazed passionately at eachother. And then there's no conversation about their sexuality between them... ever... :[

My expectations are sadly not high for gay content, but this was just another example of it being frustrating.

About the acting; there were moments where the tone was so confusing to me, I thought they were giggling and having a funny moment, but it turns out they were crying and being sad... So yeah some scenes were confusing to say the least

ALSO WHY THE FUCK DID NOH'S DAD SHOW UP THAT ONE EPISODE RANDOMLY AND THEN DISAPPEAR???? I WAS SO ALARMED
I suppose its realistic in a way but also damn I didn't even know he had a dad they never mentioned anything abt him,, another nitpick of mine. I like to have a basic family understanding in the dramas I watch. I feel more connected to them that way.

And to close my review, I am a real live gay so yes I do know a little bit abt what I'm talking about :]
