Heartfelt and real
How is this 8.5? This is literally a delicious buffet of a series that kept it airtight and beautiful with amazing music, acting and each and every moment was jam packed with meaning from hair ruffling to "ally". And I loved the backstories for the side characters! Even if it was just a moment, their actors made me feel for them that absolutely no one is a stereotypical psycho villain.The endiiiiiinnnnnngggg!!!! I am filled with so much sadness that is eased into hope. I am satisfied with just one series but I wouldn't mind a second one just to see Karl's journey further.

Could've been shortened
Honestly, it's a really cute series and I love the chemistry between the couples! I love Bun's go-getter personality, which actually helps me stay interested in the actual plot, and Tan is a sweetie which makes me stay for the romance. That and Sorn are ADORBS period. I just want more of them.But the whole thing could've been cut down to a 2 hour movie or a five or eight episode series with the bonus feature of deleted scenes filled with fluffiness instead of hour long episodes of nonsense decisions being made just to prolong the series.

Episode 9
The story was really good for the first 8 episodes but then shit hit the fan really hard at episode 9 when it began taking short cuts while holding onto a string of what made the series great.Thon kissing Amp was a terrible decision since it was cheating. And I honestly liked how Thon was trying everything to apologize, and it was going amazing with Chon pointing out his hypermasculine bullshit. But then it went downhill when Thon was talking about having always like Chon and then being taken back over the anchor tattoo.
Like no!!!!!
I personally wouldn't have Chon never forgive Thon. If the kiss meant something, HELL YEAH! But it didn't. The real problem was how Thon was raised by his homophobic sexist father.
If the writers had mixed in the plot of the parents figuring out and Thon still apologizing, it could've set up a great story of Thon truly realizing his errors, fighting for his love by improving himself through like listing all the things he's done in the past, add what he now knows is correct, and display his understanding before Chon. And his friends could've helped him along the way by setting up camps at Chon's backyard, watch hypermasculine movies out there, have Thon making food for Chon to eat upstairs.
Also Nam could've addressed about how being cheated on was like for her, how it was different compared to Chon's because those men never bothered to show true change, but Thon was trying his absolute best. Its difficult to trust again, and Chon didnt need to all the way at first. Just give a little opportunity for Thon to prove himself.
Something like this.

Motion sickness and laughter
Just to get it off my chest...IN THE FIRST FEW EPISODES, IT HAS ONE OF THE MOST ATROCIOUS CAMERA WORK!!!! THEY KEPT CHANGING ANGLES EVERY 2 SECONDS, THAT I 99% LOOKED ONLY AT THE CAPTIONS JUST TO BEAR WITH IT!I would've dropped the series if it did not have one of my favorite actors, Mike!! And staying was almost worth it because I love a story that comes full circle. I also don't mind the endless product placement because it doesnt get in the way of the story or it adds something to it. But one of them was too much and it was Scrubbs. I was leaning more towards resentment by the end.
