Toxicity at its finest
A controversial show you either love or hate.Toxic and emotionally draining, but that's the quality that makes it special. It doesn't feel like a fairytale, where everything is sprinkled with stardust. It's mature and focuses on the ugly and less attractive side of people, when they are at their worst and succumb to their lowest instincts. I enjoyed watching these six characters being humans. Petty and flawed. They will definitely frustrate you, you will love them, you'll hate them, you'll sympathise with them, but they are all multi dimensional they feel real.
Aside from the story itself the acting must be praised. Every actor gave it their best and the result was amazing. I will commend Khaotung a bit more for delivering --in a terrifyingly realistic way-- one of the best scenes I've ever ever watched on a bl so far.
As for the music, every song selected fitted each scene perfectly and amplified the emotions the characters conveyed.
Overall, it's a show I definitely recommend to anyone who is interested in a less perfect story.

Not a typical story
The first part kept me interested, but it actually mislead me into labelling it a certain way and have expectations of what the movie should be, when in actuality it's a story with a lot of symbolisms. I appreciate it for what it is and usually this kind of stories are within my tastes, but with this one I didn't manage to connect all the way. Maybe, the way it was presented didn't do the trick for me. If you watch it once you'll certainly need to give it another try to interpret the scenes.The scenery, was beautiful and the acting worth watching.
I do not recommend the story to someone who expects a regular movie formula. If you are into more unconventional movies, then check it out, otherwise you'll get tired.

Not good enough
The story theme wasn't bad at all. It really was a very solid idea and much more interesting than what you usually see in a bl, but it suffered from rushed writing. The main characters were likable with cute/fun interactions and a fine backstory, but not developed properly. Some things were just resolved very quickly or characters were thrown into the mix out of nowhere to stir some trouble, without really having any impact other than being plot devices. That could be blamed to the number of the episodes, but I feel they still could do much better with the writing.The main protagonists had chemistry. Both actors were pretty capable, but there's so much you can do when the scenario doesn't help.
For me, this series had the potential to be great, but didn't receive the care it deserved. It was treated more like a series to fill the gap in the program till the next big project was ready, which is a shame. Still you can watch it pleasantly if you just want to pass your time..
