Lets be fair and break this down

So its 2024 in May and I, just moments ago, finished this show.

- The Actors-
Let me start off by saying it was new for me to see Khao with someone other than First and I had previously seen Pod in Kiss me again and Dark Blue Kiss staring TayNew. I also of course have seen Neo in just about everything, also Mike and Top in 2gether. Jan who played mirim in great shows like cupids last wish and more recently cherry magic!

This cast was phenomenal, you cant say any of them are bad at acting and anyone who says that is just being a hater for no reason. I especially loved Pods performance when delivering sincere lines and Jan when she was being a comedic genius!

-The Plot- I realize this was adapted for the screen from a novel so please forgive me, i didnt read that novel yet.


The plot wasn’t the best i will admit but it got a solid C grade from me because there was humor, romance, butterfly inducing moments, and real experiences that LGBTQIA+ go through. I don’t know about any of you but I had a hell of a time coming out to my family. I was disowned even. I experienced homophobia at school. I wanted my first partner to not tell anyone. These aren’t just tropes used in movies or shows. These are real lived experiences.

To all of the people angry about the homophobia, thats valid, but its real. It happens that way. Peoples reasoning is the same that I heard flung my direction.

To the scenes that didnt make sense, how did the personal photo of Ton from chons phone make it on the internet? That was never addressed or explained.

I felt bad for Neos character, Na. He deserved more of a character arch than being selfless and helping Ton realize his feelings for Chon. It would have made sense to have pang develop a relationship with him after seeing how kind and generous he was with chon.

Now lets discuss the 3 year time skip and random input of surrogacy. I was actually happy about this because again its very real experiences for Queer couples. They hire a surrogate or ask a friend to assist. Its a meaningful way to still have children of your own and not go through discriminating processes like adoption or fostering. I wish they wouldnt have rushed the ending and gave us more information about that process and didnt just imply that TonChon were married now. Chon would be just graduating college i cant forsee that being a realistic timeframe to raise a child.

The elephant in the room… that near rape scene in the bathroom had absolutely no follow up or consequences for that person. It made little sense to me how Chon would have let him be disrespectful a few scenes later when he refused to give chon those study guides he was passing out. He deserved to be kicked out of school or at least arrested.

Now to everyone who was comparing the lack of consequences for the near rape to the treatment of amp for what she did, please dont. Those are 2 separate issues. We should call out homophobia, we shouldnt be polite to bigots. They should be ostracized and lose status. I didnt feel bad for amp once. Does that mean the near rape should have been excused or skipped over? No. That was careless of the writers and I hope the book didnt intend it that way.

- OverAll-

This show was funny, interesting, an unexpected treat to watch. I would definitely watch it over again because I think the acting was so well done, but i would skip a couple scenes that I had mentioned.

If you got this far, thanks for reading my rant. ??
