What I DISLIKE about this show is that the storyline is very weak and common, nothing unique or new. There were instances where the characters made Stupid and very cringe worthy decisions just to put more drama into the storyline but it just made much worse. Half of the actors we’re not that good at acting and some even lack chemistry. I feel like they put this together just for the sake of making a BL series as it is very popular this year. Also they dubbed the Chinese actor’s lines to Thai which made some of his scenes weird. Would have been nice if they introduced him as a foreign exchange student instead of the weird voice over.

If you’re gonna sell an UNCUT VERSION, make sure the CUT VERSION is quality first
Being a remake version, one would think they could do better as they already have a template to base on but unfortunately they did it so poorly.There only 2 things I LIKED about this BL. The main leads are pleasant to watch & August can actually act. Ning was also a good actress. That’s it.
The main problem of this project is that they did 2 versions, & with the cut version, it felt like the story was rushed, lots of confusing and premature scenes, & because of the lack of build up, it made the story confusing & characters unlikeable because of the lack of scenes & explanation.
I don’t recommend this BL.
Watch the 2016 or 2023 version instead.

Complicated Main Lead but Interesting Storyline
GOOD:- Although it is in a high school setting, the story tackles serious issues like suicide, bullying, internal homophobia, family issues.
- All characters had a contribution to the main story.
- Plot twist at the end was unexpected
BAD:
-My only issue is Tae-Yi was so toxic and mean. His outbursts got unbearable to watch that a simple sorry wouldn’t have sufficed. I felt like he didn’t deserve to be with Seo-heon.
OVERALL:
- Overall it’s a great BL, I would highly recommend.

Not as magical as it’s Japanese predecessor
GOOD:- Chemistry between the main leads.
- Included the Cherry Magic The Movie story in the series, richer storyline.
- Scenes are more built up.
- Laslty there are a couple of kissing scenes which were lacking in the Japanese version.
BAD:
- Karan, is more serious compared to the Japanese version, so I found his thoughts kinda creepy.
- Jinta who’s supposed to be older looks younger than Min, felt forced.
- It lacked the Charm which Japan version had
OVERALL:
- A decent BL Series.

Short but Direct
What I LIKE most about this show is that all the moments are important moments. I would rather have a short BL series with important, impactful scenes and storyline than a long BL series with a lot of unnecessary side story. The storyline is quite unique for a BL series, The actors were pretty good in acting and I like that there were no cliché moments used, it was so real and relatable.What I DONT LIKE about this series is that I wanted more romantic moments from them but I understand as I feel it’s one of the first BL series in Korea.
Overall this is a very good BL Series, would highly recommend it!
