Not good but not that bad
First of all, I found out this show by March through Wattpad. My journey here started out when I read the first book. There are 5 Novels in the series; Oxygen (SoloGui) , Nitrogen (PhuKao), Anakin (ParmJedi), Aftermoon (Nong Moon), The Air (Special Chapters).
STORY
The story in the novel is great. It features each and every character greatly and it showcases how Solo and Gui's relationship is healthy. Aside from DeanParm in UWMA, i'll label SoloGui's relationship as the 2nd healthies I've ever encountered.
I was so excited when I found out that the Novel was getting a series adaptation but unfortunately it was a little bit of a disappointment for me. Phu and Kao's story comes after Solo and Gui's story and when the team decided to combine it into one, the timeline messed up the storyline. Personally, I do not like the addition of Linda because I had enough with demonizing women and always making them the villain in the story. The couple's conflict in the book is related more on family and maturity where they are challenged, not by certain third parties, but their own family.
PhuKao story is what I am living for especially in the books. Their story here is a bit the same but it is only half-way. Their story continues when Kao went to England with Phu and met Parm (Phu's brother) and that part is what I liked the most about the novel. It made it much deeper and much enjoyable and I'm kinda disappointed not seeing that part in the series.
Solo's dad and Jay's story could have been portrayed so well but it is disappointing to be seen in the series.
Probably the biggest confusion that happened in the series was the timeline as the story kinda went all over the place.
The doctor's story can be taken out from the series. I skipped all of their parts
ACTORS
The acting could do some work and this is the first time I've seen them on screen so I understand when there are certain parts when their acting isn't that great. I would like to see more from Phubeth(Phu) because idk, something in him feels a bit wrong.
Boss(Kao) did a great job portraying his character and I am actually in love with him right now.
As for the others, they are still a lot of improvements.
Should you watch it? It depends on you. It is not good but not bad.
But I would recommend reading the Novel because there's a lot missing in the series. And the third novel which is Parm and Jedi's story was my favorite. The second part of the PhuKao's story is actually better than the first part. It has something to do with depression and mental health of Phu's brother, you would know a lot about their family as well as Kao's father finding out their relationship. Some parts with his father is hilarous and I really recommend reading it. I would not rewatch it though.
Overall, this series is okay for me. But not as good as other series. Actually, there are a lot of series that came up this year due to popularity but most of them kinda disappoints. The only good BL I've watched so far was ITSAY.
