The storyline is simple. I'll talk about the good things first:

1. The characters aren't all well-off, and they actually kind of talk about the hardships of not being born into a good family.
2. There's a girl character (the girlfriend) who isn't a bitch.
3. It's quite entertaining, although it did get to the point wherein I got so annoyed with the characters that I just got annoyed with the rest of the show.

Now I'll talk about the things I didn't enjoy:

1. Pop has a girlfriend. I'm in episode 17 now, and they still haven't broken up. Besides the fact that this is one of those annoying BL tropes, it gets so annoying because they are openly flirting when Pop knows that he has a girlfriend!!!
2. Oat is way too jealous for someone who's a friend, and the way he treats Mo, Pop's girlfriend, is so fucking annoying. Like, dude, you're the one who's flirting with somebody else's lover and you have the guts to act like this towards her? I actually did enjoy watching Oat's character up until maybe half of the series, but the way he persistently flirted with Pop just made me uncomfortable.
3. There's this episode wherein Pop was distressed that Oat may have had sex with him when he was drunk (a.k.a raped him; which was not the case), and even if Oat didn't do that, the way he acted was so alarming. He should've been honest, especially that Pop was already guarded around him because of his persistence.
4. The relationship between the other couple (Pree x Rambo) was not enjoyable. Their crying scenes were awkward. We also didn't get to see a lot of them, so I didn't really end up caring about them that much.
5. The only relationship I wished was developed more was that of Mo and Prince's. They're both good, sensible characters, so I just hoped they would have found their happiness as well!

There are still 3 episodes, though, so my views above might still change.
