I actually understimated the team behind this series. I made myself believe that episode 10 which I treat as the ending will not be surpassed by this episode. But the series, proves me wrong. This made me so happy and warm. I feel an astronomical kilig watching this finale episode.The storyline has been compactful and compelling. The writer of the series could have written that Cai's mother would allow Cai to be left in the metro for a happy ending of our protagonist. They could have been persuaded by the viewers for a happy ending. But the creativity of the IdeaFirst Company came up with compromise. If they blindly followed the demand of the viewers the storyline would lose its identity which is being compactful and compelling. Thus, they made a compromise that is both happy ending ans is subject to social realism. Hence, Leile, Cai's mother allow Cai to be left for at least one week to sort things out with Gav before finally going to Bukidnon. On acting department, it is again a superb performance. It is convincingly 11/10.Musical scoring is immaculate also. It amplifies the emotions and feels that are needed to be experience so poignantly.
Personally, I treat this episode as the ending. If this was the ending officially, I would be more than happy because it earns its title as a superb ending. The physical interactions of our both protagonist is both magical and assuring that their love for each other is true. The scene in the last part is so iconic. The musical scoring is superior. The acting of course is 11/10.
In this episode, the series once again proves its substance and relevance. In this particular episode and in more or less 20-minute the series encapsulated certain and relevant topics of social reality. These are: being who you really are unapologetically, acceptance of once self; acceptance of one family; mental disorder; the value of the family; forgiveness; the meaning of friendship; and the limitations brought by the pandemic.
As their relationships is having its path, another character emerges. It was once thought to be a threat to the pending love story of our protagonist. But contrary, the series reassure us that the series will portray heterosexual as positive as they could be.
As Gav makes his moves and Cai plays hard to get what could be the story unfold? Acting again is superb. May be Cai is playing hard to get. But that is his persona. He is a contradictory person. It must be a challenge for Gav to win the heart of Cai as a living paradox.
It is very inducing to watch with all its cringiness and rawrity. Acting is very superb. Gav and Cai are total opposite. But isn't it that opposite attracts? The straight forwardness of Gav may overwhelms Cai, but Cai totally is not also disliking it. Set in a pandemic, this series has a many topics to explore.
