Cute, for a student social media project (I'm assuming)
The very first thing any potential watcher needs to come to terms with is that this is very much done as if it is a student social media project.Many people complained about the episode lengths and the video being in portrait mode, rather than landscape. I personally did not have a problem with that aspect of this series. Each scene was generally composed of 2 episodes. The image quality was clear and they made good use of the screen space.
My problem however is the acting and the script. Plot conflicts didn't have sufficient time leading into them, and were resolved just as quickly (or even vaguely sometimes). Fortunately, there wasn't a problem with overacting like many other newbie works, but I wasn't convinced of the emotions the characters were supposedly feeling. It was cute, but it didn't feel fulfilling as a viewer. But the couples made sense story-wise. As all the couples were some sort of friends-to-lovers dynamic, it's important to show some sort of new circumstance that serves as a catalyst for the change in dynamic - and they did that well.
The series premiered officially on the GagaOOLala and Artop Media Hit Drama youtube channels.

cute micro series, just too short
Overall: this is a micro micro series at 1-3 minutes per episode. Recommend watching on the GagaOOLala YouTube channel as a few episodes on Artop Media Hit Drama channel were missing subtitles.Content Warnings: non con photo taking, not sure if I would label that as non con at the end of the 1st episode as there was no indication of interest prior to it
What I Liked
- the general premise as shown after the 1st episode
- cute moments
- a f/f couple
Room For Improvement
- the run time was just too short with 3 separate couples, they should have just had the focus be 1 couple
- choppy, we'd end up somewhere and start somewhere totally different in the next episode
- that the f/f couple didn't get a kiss
- several of the kisses were camera blocked
- music was too loud over dialogue at times
