The best at being just friends
If you want a nugget of GL that's more than just implied, this is a good option (but I hope there will be better ones soon where the GL is the main couple). If you've never seen a BL, start with this one. They ended up reusing some ideas from others, but this one did them the best. If you already watch BLs and want to watch yet another university romance, you should watch this so you can see a healthy, non-toxic, consensual relationship.
The actors did an amazing job. Their intimate moments never felt forced, especially because they subverted some popular BL tropes. The relationship progression felt natural and never tried to force the characters to change who they were. I loved watching Pat and Pran's journey without having to sit through (or fast forward past) complicated storylines of side couples. There wasn't a single scene that I felt like I needed to skip. (I think this is the first time that fluff made me cry.) There are so many scenes that I've already rewatched. I personally like that they didn't shy away from the product placement and decided to use it to create some really fun scenes. (I also rewatched those scenes.)
I personally cannot be happy with a secret relationship because it would feel too much like running back into the closet. I'm still happy that they managed to work their way through it. I wanted to feel satisfied by the end, but this show left something unresolved that could easily be solved in 1 episode with what they said in the last episode. Honestly, the last episode felt like a brisk wrap-up. I kind of wish that they had stopped after episode 11 and added a few more episodes after to fix their problems in the present.
