10 Stars - these caught my heart

10 for the raw feeling of the drama and its realistic tone without being somber. A refreshing take on school romance. 

10 for the characters who both had a lot of flaws and failure to communicate yet managed to fit together perfectly. 

10 for everything. The aesthetics, the acting, the characters and story. This is absolutely my top pick must watch movie. 

The feeling it captures of vulnerable youth is sublime. The characters fierce yet gentle relationship is truly beautiful. The deep conversations and the messages in the movie resonates deeply. I can rewatch this over and over again and never get bored. It shows the tenacity of being a teen caught in a clash with the world. 

10: for the  very complex relationship between the main leads. Who is weak and who is strong? Who has the power? What is power? Such a disturbing and vicious bond between them yet enduring and sometimes tender. 

10: for the mood which is perfectly on point and elevates the story which could easily just be obscene. 

10: for capturing my heart despite not being an objectively 10 rated show. 

10: for the path of the FL, her tenacity and growth is great to watch. She is fearlessly committed and shows her emotions always without thought of modulating them to suit the occasion. She is true to herself always: when she is strong, when she is weak, when she struggles and when so doesn't know how to feel. Sometimes it is hard to watch her feelings overflow inappropriately, yet it is beautiful to watch a person who is bravely presenting her emotions to the world to see without a care for the world's reactions. 

10: for the chemistry and interactions between the main leads. Their unspoken deep understanding of each other is one on of the most beautiful relationships I've experienced in dramas. Their interactions are very subdued yet you can feel their irresistible pull towards each other.
