Could have been a classic - Made me a fan though
I must say, at one point I was confused as to why they were so popular. Love Mechanics (2022) gave me a glimpse into it.. their chemistry is so good... but I must applaud the beauty of the Best Story. The last 10 minutes was tragic but so beautifully portrayed by them.. from the insane chemistry to the impressive acting.. they have just officially creeped into my top 5. btw The Best Story is underrated.. if it had more time to flesh out itself it could have been a classicMy Top 5 : Updated - Maxtul/TayNew/MewGulf/OhmFluke/YinWar !!

Truly the best story ❤️
We all have a one sided love story in our life, right? We tried so hard to win over them. Sometimes we just pray to god for them to look at us. This is that story, for all of us. This series will recall our memories. That 1st love, we buried deep inside. I felt the actor's happiness, pain, anger everything. War was living in his role.. great acting. Its a best series to remember the one's we loved long ago. And they have the best ost. It will make you fall in love again. Overall great performance, this is truly a best story❤️Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

NOSTALGIC EMOTIONS says "hi"
I admit this series has noticeable BL tropes and cliches but I think they worked. I always thought way better series are disappointingly shorter than average and worst ones. The character of War which is Best puts me in his shoe easily. I was really relating all the things I did for my crush. The nostalgic feeling of having butterflies in your stomach everytime you come across your crush. I relived it in the best way possible.I thought the cinematography for this one has nostalgia and old-school effect attached to it just like The Yearbook and I Told Sunset About You. I love that the setting seemed to happened back in the days were walkmans were everyone's gadgets. I just love the overall feeling of the series. I also want to point out a kinda similar scene of 2gether in some scene in this series: Best playing songs in front of the crowd where Dew watches it just like Sarawat on stage and Tine watches him. I thought the Best's friends who support him to get close to Dew is cute being not homophobic which is a less of a burden. I thought that the actors really played their respective roles very well. The "yearning of attention from your crush" is what really makes me relate to this miniseries.
There are few things I want to talk about that is unsatisfactory: bad bitch trope and homophobic parent. I know these things exist but please for the love of God, I'm begging you to remove bad bitch who always plan to ruin relationship just because they can. One thing about the homophobic mother of Dew who annoys me as the girl. God, I don't even like them.
Apart from those, I commend the OST of this drama, being a chef's kiss. I also thought the plot is rather simple and easy to follow as it is relatable that it made me feel things. In fact, when Dew moved and Best just cried seeing that apparently Dew has feelings for him too which is for me, the reason why this series needs to be longer or have a second season. That cliffhanger made me hope for a season 2. If it plans to have a second one they better deliver.
This one is just one of the best BL that caught my heart strings.

Astonishingly Good BL Series
This is an astonishingly series that went in a completely different direction than I expected it to. I was convinced that I would perhaps get through one episode and then go, “Eh”. But I was so very wrong. The dynamics of this series is quite profound. This series ends so remarkably that I was deeply and profoundly moved by it. While it is only three episodes, they managed to capture the angst, trauma, and reality of two high school boys floundering trying to figure out what they felt and how to act on that. . It is one of the best coming of age stories I have seen in a long time and frankly brilliantly acted.You can read my full review at BLBliss.com.

A heart-warming and emotional series about young love
For a 3-episode series, I went in with little expectation as I knew they would just rush into things and the freedom that a full-length series possess on developing characters will be lost here. But this was surprisingly good. The series gently touched on a lot of topics and I have nothing but appreciation for that successful attempt.The story dives in to the school life of Best, who is secretly in love with a basketball player named Dew but has no courage to talk to him let alone confess his love. Egged on by his friends, he decides to write a love song for him which he gets a chance to perform during the school festival. Dew is enamoured by the performance and rest is history. Or is it?
What starts as a soft and sweet story about secret love, supportive friends and finding the inner strength to not keep it a secret anymore suddenly takes a different turn. Only when you feel that things are looking bright for the 2 main leads reality hits like a truck. Not everything falls in to place because you made a genuine attempt. We see the characters confronting jealousy, self-acceptance, homophobia and family pressure. Will their young love survive all these?
War and Yin did an exemplary job at playing the characters and their chemistry together was undeniably good. The supporting characters aptly shouldered the responsibility of pushing the narrative forward.
In conclusion, this series plays with your heart-strings and you feel a plethora of emotions. If a series about puppy love and strong emotions is right up your alley give this one a watch

Not the best ending
I'm not forgiving ya'll for that ending. That was wrong. This was one of the first descriptions I have read in a hot minute. and this was 3 hours, so I was like, whatever, I will knock this out in like 3 hours. Yeah, it didn't take 3 hours. It actually did; never mind, it felt so much longer. I love me some yin and war, and the start was a really good one, and then the end. They were so wrong for that. Unreasonably wrong for that.The stupid girl whose name I can't be bothered to remember is a little snitch, and I hate her. She's so wrong for that. She's actually just starting shit because Dew doesn't like her. Like what? I know in the end we found out that he did like Best, but at that moment she had no idea; she was literally just going based on Dew staring at Best while he was singing on stage. Now I know why he doesn't like you, girl.
This was short, but it also felt like the longest three episodes I have ever seen, and I don't really know why. It felt slow-burning, but how can something be slow-burning when it's this short? It can't; that's the thing. Meh, it wasn't bad; just the ending was bad. I like the plot of a secret crush and a big confession because I find those so cute and adorable.
They could have had Dew run after Best and be like, I love you, bro, move to Chiang Mai with me. and he could have been like, But your mom and Dew could have said, Fuck my mom, I love you. and then they share an awkward kiss as the camera pans out to a sunset and all their friends in the back. Sorry, I got a little to excited with this goofy ass ending.
I love yin and war. They are a good pair, and I love them. Ive been obsessing over their partners in crime tralier for their coneert for the past 9 months (since the video has been out), so it's nice to see these two in another show with their sweetness and good vibes. You can disagree with me if you want, but my god, war is gorgeous. His beauty is ethereal; it's unreal. Oh my god, and the way he speaks, it's like he's floating, and he's so cute and handsome, with his skin shining and his eyes shining. Oh my god. Okay uh anyway, thats really it.
I mean, you can watch this. It's short; there's not a whole lot going on and not a lot of brain power. so a light watch I wouldn't recommend it, but I would at the same time. Do what you want; don't let some person on the internet dictate your favorite dramas. Yeah. Okay bye!
