Loved it
Change2561 is famous for their very mature BLs like PitBabe. So when they launched this HS-set-up BL series on their lineup, I was pretty confused and surprised. When it aired, I was hooked from the 1st ep.
Honestly, I’ll say that the depth of the storyline is pretty typical for an HS setup: coming out, enemies to lovers, friends, crushes, school, and dreams. However, it was nice to see HS characters being played by actors who are actually in HS in real life. At least, you can really feel their innocence in everything, especially when it comes to life and, of course, love. It’s the age where they start to learn a lot of things.
The visuals of these kids are really to die for. I know they can really make a name for themselves in showbiz as long as they have good management. And the acting? It’s not awkward or cringe. The style is cute, fluffy, and innocent romance, and I think it’s well-balanced for their age.
The OST is good too. I haven’t searched yet if it’s Leeith who actually sang it. If it is him, then that’s plus one for me. 😂
One thing I love about this series is that there are a lot of girl characters involved. You know, sometimes in a BL series, girls’ scenes can feel like they’re dragging. But here, no. Again, it was well-balanced. Their characters might just be side characters, but they are all relevant.
Both the main leads and the side couples have good chemistry. Maybe except for the cheating part of Tae, and you can’t just say “they’re kids.” I really like the friendship that they were able to build. From being an introverted kid who couldn’t socialize to becoming the leader of the pack.
And again, the girls are relevant. They are not just there for decoration, to the point that Proud even joined Leeith’s band. And you know how Putter seeks advice from the girls and even hangs out with them.
And going back to the conflicts of chasing your dreams and coming out to your parents. I know it’s typical, but then again, we are talking about real high school here.
Again, I used to think I was done with HS series. Turns out, I still love them. I just need something that does it well.
