Initially I just thought this was a series about 2 friends who grow apart but come back together again. Much like ITSAY but with less budget. These stories make me sad already, but I was prepared for that. And then BAM! They throw in (well I should say Mean throws in) a curve ball. That makes it so much sadder! Let's get into it.

First of all Mean directing a series is awesome. I could tell he was kinda getting sick of acting in BL's. So now he's using his experience being in them to make them. We love that and overall I think he did a good job! Once the scene happens between Nut and his brothers boo about the black dot analogy, I oddly knew this series would be good. Off the bat I thought Phob was just being stubborn and dumb, which results in losing his best friend. Then he loses him AGAIN because he's moving and didn't tell anybody. So when he comes back I made a joke referring to him talking to that former classmate 4 years later. We as the viewers don't know what he disclosed so my dumb*** said "okay so he's either disclosing that he has feelings for Nut DUH or he's sick or something lMaO!" .....O_O ((I also lowkey predicted that Nut's brother wasn't just "friends" with that guy XD)

Once you find out Phob is sick with cancer, the series takes a turn and for the better. It makes everything he does make sense! Like why was he so funny about Nut becoming a doctor? Because he's sick and around doctors a lot already! So when he's looking around Nut's room at all the doctor student stuff. Ugh my heart! Why did he not want to tell people hes moving? Because its for his treatment and he doesn't think he's going to make it! I felt awful thinking he was just being dumb. Poor Phob man seriously.

The best scene hands down in this was Nut and Phob talking about his illness in the bed looking at each other. Nut asking Phob if he gets sick from his cancer, what kind it is, when did he know. Not wanting him to disappear again and then they hold each other crying and kiss. Oof it made me cry dude! That was so well done. After that we eventually find out that Phob needs to have his arm amputated if there's any chance of stopping the spread of the cancer. This is devastating and he's reluctant at first, which is totally understandable! I cannot even imagine that. As well as, it'll affect his dream of becoming of musician. This was all really interesting and I gotta give props because when its done, he really does look like an amputee. The fact that Mean plays his doctor too lol he popped up out of nowhere and jump scared me! If he was my doctor....*sigh. Prem came out of nowhere too!

Let's get into some of what I had issues with in this series. One of them being the ending. Its so abrupt and I guess it was time constraint from COVID? Which sucks, because I really hoped for a solid ending. But we get an abrupt cut after we find out Phob is doing okay 1 year later and Nut's brother and his boo are probably broken up now? We'll see I guess. Other things includes timeline stuff not adding up to the year this is supposed to be set in. Like saying "cringe" or the breaking bad shirt lol. The intro song is way too long, I skipped it every time sorry. The music overall in this (background I mean) is too much. Like let the actors act, we don't need a loud song every time there's an emotional scene. Also a doctor would never ever divulge any information about a patient over the phone unless they are okayed to do so via a proxy. So Nut wouldn't have gotten that info about the amputation like that.

Overall, a touching series but I really wish that ending wasn't what it was! Let's hope for a second season that rectifies it.
