The lead pairing struggles to find its place but the side couples carry this great series

NO-SPOILER REVIEW

This is a really hard review to write because I would have given very different ratings for just the main couple versus all the other side couples. The lead couple starts out strong and unfortunately struggles to find its way, but thankfully this series gives plenty of time to the development of the side couples, and they make for an amazing series.

Pros
- Three of the main side couples have amazing character and story development as well as great acting and chemistry. Any of them could have carried this entire series and could have their own dedicated spin offs.
- A good blend of funny, dramatic, and feel-good moments.
- The OSTs are great and really add to the mood.

Cons
- Some tropes feel a bit stale and some relationship elements aren't very healthy.
- As this series doesn't appear to have the same budgets as some other Thai BL series, there are some aspects that feel a bit rougher in terms of overall production and distribution. In addition, this series seemed to have some difficulty with multiple rounds of casting and issues with a Chinese investor company and cast member.

Overall
- This series seems to have had some issues getting the attention and acknowledgement it deserves as it's not coming from GMMTV or other big studios, but it's definitely worth watching. While the plot for the main leads isn't very strong, this series survives on the amazing side couples, which are more than worth it.
