Jumping straight to it, spoilers ahead. Don't read if you don't want spoilers.
Major moments of the drama;
- KP's first relationship was a sham bc the girl only wanted to get close to SE
- SE kissing SW for the first time, I thought it was funny that she actually indeed did kiss KP before (but as kids, so does it really count? LOL)
- KP realizing his feelings for SW was real. Either romantic or platonic, he does have deep feelings for SW
- SW finally realizing that her feelings towards KP was not romantic. but platonic (TY bestie for opening up her eyes)
- KP putting aside his own feelings and realizing that SE needed a shoulder to lean on more than him.. like FINALLY. He acted like a child the whole drama when they're all the same age. Nothing is more annoying than being a parent to someone the SAME age.
Thoughts:
- High school being high school, there's always going to be talk. But it was getting boring and annoying that everyone kept assuming SE was gay. Not everyone is thinking about romance and dating every second of the day. He could have been busy studying for CSAT since they are in fact, seniors preparing for college. Also.. he's ranked #1, lots of pressure. AND EVEN IF HE WAS GAY, WHO CARES??
- Which brings me to.. The whole SE's older brother being gay made no sense to me. I only say this bc nothing really comes from this plot line. You can say that it caused his mom depression since she tried to kill herself (ep 10), but then the writers could have just given her depression. It added nothing to the storyline besides the point where he was being confronted by his brother's lover. But good to know SE is an ally ?
- KP might be autistic. The way he acts and everything, he could be on the spectrum. The whole picking his nose and not understanding social cues... just points to it. Abandonment issues def isn't the only thing he has.
- I like the SFL. She was painted as an annoying girl who wouldn't take no for an answer but I think she was in it for the chase. She wasn't as annoying as SE might see her to be. She never overstepped (tooooo much) and when SE told her to leave him alone, she left. But I like her bc when she realized that SE was also in a one sided love, she basically stepped back. She realized that she's been rejected for good.
- SFL and the other friend's storyline could have been expanded. I like how they found comfort in each other bc they were clearly being ignored by the 3. KP wasn't a good friend at all.. lol
Now.. the ending. The whole open ended-ness... I liked it.
Like the title says, FAILing in love.. I don't think anyone ended up with anyone.
- KP learns to be alone. Though he does call to see if SE is free, he isn't stuck to someone. He's walking down the street alone when he couldn't do that throughout the whole drama.
- SE and SW aren't officially together yet, but I think they were both able to purse their relationship without having any outside worries.
And if we don't want to see it through romantic lenses.. SW and SE both befriended KP with hidden motives. The both of them were never alone with each other and never got to know one another. When KP "grew up", they were able to go to college and worry about themselves and finally become friends with each other.
