Warning: If you are looking for a faced paced and overly dramatical BL, this series is NOT for you.
Overall, this was a great series. The script was good, but had some minor weak aspects. It’s always nice to watch a mature BL series that involved adults that act like adults, well most of the time. The first episode was creative and did a great job with giving us Neil’s backstory and setting up the storylines. The script also did a good job interweaving both throughout the series. I also felt the relationship development between both BL couples had just the right pacing for the number of episodes it had. One of the minor problems is the script didn’t fully develop various aspects of the story. The biggest one was Sea’s backstory. We receive bits and pieces but not a complete picture. All of the actors did a great job portraying their characters. Just a heads up that the character Orca is Thai which introduced a language barrier component to the series. However, the portrayal of the language differences between Orca and the other characters was more realistic than the last series I tried to watch. It also helped that the actor, Jame Kasama, did a great job interacting with the other actors. The cinematography was great with the exception of the time jumps. Most of them were ok, but there were a few that just happened with no visual cues. The music/songs they used were very good which helped make this series, about the music industry, more believable.
Random Notes:
Don’t stop watching after the picture montage in episode 3 and 12 because there is an additional scene afterwards.
The accidental kiss in episode 1 was ridiculous and unnecessary. The ending was good, but it had a lot of flashbacks.
I’m slightly confused on the age difference between Neil and Sea.
It seems that GagaOOLala received some funding from the Thai production company Star Hunter which explains why three of their actors were in the series (1 had a supporting role and 2 had cameos).
