Started off well .... then lost it ....
Okay this drama was not really on my list, It sort of just popped in while scrolling. And it first it started off really well, then somewhere along the line it got lost in translation.
The fist few minutes of the show set them in University, before flashing back to 7 episodes of high school, which can be a little confusing to start. The evolution of Itt and Pai felt much more natural with slow burn feelings and stolen looks, as well as trying to figure out how they felt about each other. When they get to university, everything felt kind of forced. For me the whole misunderstanding over a class room, then boom we at a university gathering and there was no spark whatsoever between them was really disappointing.
Then you have pure who had a scare in high school, but didn't seem to mend his ways was a really tragedy. The fact that the writer touched on this topic, but it somehow didn't hit the impact of how dangerous unprotected sex is, and just flew over the top his head, and carried on with messed up ways, was really disappointing. I like the fact that we have an unabashedly bisexual character without much fanfare and effort to harp on the issue of bisexuality. Pure's most prominent trait is his promiscuity, but he is a character whom one can sympathize with.
Waan was really sweet in this drama, and always seemed to have friends back.
It's ridiculous how 90% of the problems in the show could have been solved by just talking and communicating. I know people are a little like that too, but seriously? I still don't get how Itt stays by Pai's side by helping and taking care of him in the dark but is not capable of talking to him face to face to clarify he's not angry at him nor does he hate him. What's the point?
Another point is that we can't see when and how Itt starts liking Pai. The acting is more obvious on Pai's case, but Itt? Not his dialogues, nor his face or eyes say a thing. Then he acts all angry when he finds out about the classroom, doesn't talk to him for months, and then suddenly appears, helps him and likes him? "he was never angry"
This drama lacked a whole lot, it's like the writers/producers are putting less and less effort every time. Little budget, rookie actors who are obviously handsome.
Overall: it's an okay watch, but it definitely lacks a whole lot!!
