You shouldn't miss this hidden gem!

[This is not a very well-promoted series but IT'S A GEM! ]

In my opinion, its plot, production, chemistry, and acting are absolutely amazing. This is such a non-cliche BL story with well-crafted characters. You finally don't see college students in the engineering department (not saying it's a bad thing but it's just very overused). Every character grew a lot during the series even though it's just 8 episodes. The emotions built up very well.

Overall, this show has a sense of poignance. The story exists between the past and the reality. I love how it organically ties in Thai culture with issues people are experiencing in modern society. It very well represented the struggles of people in the LGBTQ+ community nowadays. The relationships in this series are healthy and soft.

The production is also very good. I have always been a fan of P'Aof's direction because of his cinematography. This series doesn't feel like a GMMTV series to me because it's not as bright, but the whole atmosphere fits the theme very well. The melody and lyrics of the theme song are so beautifully written! I almost cried the first time I watched it. Also, pay attention to the outro songs of all the episodes. They are all different and they even filmed different outros. This shows how much dedication went into the production.

Now talking about acting, we all know Singto is a great actor. Even though I now and then see comments on how his energy level is low during the shooting of this series because he was also shooting Friend Zone at the same time, I still think he did a great job. However, Ohm really surprised me! He was only like 18-ish when he played Than but HE KILLED IT! The rooftop scene specifically, is one of my favorite scenes across all series I have ever watched.

In conclusion, you absolutely shouldn't miss it!
