I didn't want to write a review at the beginning . 5 episodes in and I still wasn't sure where the writers were going with this story. But episode 6 onwards the drama started to unpack and the mysterious beef among some of the members started to unravel. From there, I got hooked on the episodes and kept watching till the end. New's Apo really captivated me with his facial expressions. Through his acting , you can feel how raw his emotions are on screen and he oozes the kind of aura that makes you want to see more of him. I struggled to understand the complications behind Min and Wan's story, Wan's character had so much potential but the added complications really ruined it for me. I wasn't entirely offended that a lesbian was turned straight at the end, in fact, I see it as Pan falling in love with Fah's personality and character, not his gender. Which is a good thing to promote- love knows no gender. It's the same thing as a straight man falling for men in other BL storylines. I was furious during the first 6 episodes as it made it look like Waii's attempted rape, Pan and Kluay's bullying incident were not serious enough and I felt the messaging could be clearer that this is not okay and the characters need to suffer more or show remorse. In summary, it's a show about people accepting differences, overcoming their biases, suffering their wrong decisions and coming back from failures. And i need to add, Earth's Waii has 0% body fat!!! That bod is wow.
