Meaningful and complicated

The first couple of episode felt low budget, with some powerful comebacks/one liners from Vlad but other than that nothing really special but as the show progressed I almost forgot that they barely leave the apparmen and we get to see the characters grow, fight, respect each other's boundaries and struggle with their fears and feelings.

This drama feels a bit like an educational drama for allies and for those struggling with internalised homophobia without the educational vibe and without the violence. this drama brakes several stereotypes while respecting and making way for stereotypes too. Handling the process of coming out as well as the importance to come out in ones own pace while still showing the complexity to the process with some pretty good entertainment value as well.

The chemistry between the leads is fenomenal, and every little detail seems to have some kind of meaning.

The main couple is really sweet, the OST and filming fitts pretty well but even though I do not know the budget for this drama it is rated according to content and meaning rather then high quality filming.
