Great Show, Enterntaining, Timely, Relevant, Roller Coster of Emotions

I believe this is the most relevant and timely show I have ever watched during this pandemic, and I can't believe I am saying that to a BL series. The quality of the show: direction, screenplay, story and of course, the acting, is really high quality.

The show started with a very simple plot with two individuals meeting through online gaming. Episode 1, introduced us to very interesting characters with Gavreel and Cairo, the former has a very strong character and knows what he wants, while the other one is very guarded and all he wants is a rematch. The narrative is very interesting and the chemistry between the two is very strong.

Episode 2 gave us a little backstory of the two characters and saw how their relationship develops. it really gave us the feels of young love.

Episode 3 was very sweet, it gave us an idea on how serious Gavreel is in pursuing Cairo. We were also introduced to a very interesting character of Pearl. I like that their relationship is heading to more than just flirting and that Gavreel really becomes someone Cairo can lean on.

Episode 4 gave us the dynamic of the trio, and showed how Pearl easily matches the chemistry of the two leads. Fluffy and enterntaining, it really conditioned us to another unexpected cliffhanger.

Episode 5 is really heartbreaking. The way the story progress is very realistic and relatable, wherein trust issues are really a concern on virtual relationships. The acting of Kokoy (Gavreel) is really awesome at the last scene, and Elijah (Cairo) has proven to be a good partner in Kokoy's moment.

Episode 6 is very entertaining and I love how they showed that Gavreel and Cairo really value each other, and how great a friend Pearl is. The scene with the four characters was really amazing and the chemistry again even including Terrence is very strong.

Episode 7 started with the continuation of the intense cliffhanger from Ep. 6 but it quickly followed by sweet moments that will warm your heart. But the sudden build up of the last few scenes gave us a very heartbreaking moment. Elijah was a phenomenal in the last scene and I like that this time Kokoy was really a great support.

Episode 8 is also very sad but relieving at the same time. I appreciate that the relationship of Cairo and Gavreel were a little bit out into the side to give Cairo space to resolve his personal issues and grief. But it also showed how a relationship which started off as just flirting online transformed into very serious one by being with each other during the darkest moment of one's life. Tackling with acceptance by the family is also a very powerful message.

Episode 9 was a good filler episode in preparation to the supposed finale episode. They gave us a cute dynamic on the new relationship of Cairo and Gavreel, with Cairo not still getting use to it and Gavreel being a little more aggressive about it but in the cutest way. The new plot twist is also very interesting since there was supposed to be only one episode left.

Episode 10 is really good. I appreciate that the story stivk to the quarantine and showed that they can still give us all the romantic feels even though there is social distancing. It is really relevant in a way that IRL we really are forced to be creative to be connected to each other. the acting skills of the two actors even when they are wearing a mask are so great. You could feel the emotions and the strength of their chemistry.
