I honestly feel the urge to write a review because this is one of my favourite Dramas I've seen so far this year. To be honest, if you ask me, what made me watch it was because of New, the actor of Kao. I've watched some of his Dramas before and knowing the fact that for this particular drama, his love interest was a male hence so I decided to stay and give it a go.
What I like about this series was that it showcases multiple couples each with their own unique storyline. If it weren't like this and the each of the couples have their own separate Dramas, showcasing the same storyline as it was in the series, I imagine it would certainly be just as good. (Besides, I quite like a Drama that only centres around Pete and Kao's relationship lol, why not).
Since the series focuses mainly on 4 different couples, it is quite difficult to fit them all in a short amount of only 14 episodes. Because of that, sometimes I felt like the story doesn't flow as I would have liked because each episode goes to one couple and then the next second, goes to a different one, but this time with a completely different scenario and storyline. Since the series only has 14 episodes, I do feel like it was rushed especially on the last few episodes as if they are rushing it so that that couples would resolve their conflicts and have a happy ending before the series ends. As oppose to the sequel Kiss the Series, it had a lot more of a development since it only had 2 couples and more episodes as well. I would have liked if they explored the couples a bit more but because of the limited time and screentime, wasn't able to portray that enough. However despite that, in terms of the story, I do think it is nothing special. I do like that each of the couples are connected in a way though - I found that very clever especially when the female characters in the couples are sisters and live in the same house. And then one is connected to Pete and Kao. I found these little connections to be interesting and I quite like that.
In terms of the cast, I have found many familiar faces hence so I was quite ecstatic to see them act in a series together again. I adore them and my lord, the couples are just full on adorable especially Pete/Kao and Sanwan/R. The acting for me was impeccable in some scenes but however some weren't as well. It was quite inconsistent, but overall I was quite impressed on the acting especially those kiss scenes Pete and Kao ~ Furthermore, I'm not really fussy over the Music, to be honest, I quite like it actually. True, some are repetitive as shit to the point it gets annoying when played again not to mention the opening and ending takes so much of the time in each episode as well, however despite that, I do like the Ost and I think they are very appealing to listen to.
Overall, I quite enjoyed the series. Seeing as I watched it when it was airing and had to wait episodes for each week, I'm surprised that I never lost interest and was kept motivated to wait the whole way through. Goes to say, it's worth the watch for me and I definitely didn't regret it. Absolutely one of my faves. I will definitely miss the series especially Pete and Kao <33 Someday I hope #TayNew will get their own series as the main couple lol.
