A sweet yet punchy political dramedy with heart, and a lot of guts!
Genuinely such an enjoyable show. It's a politial comedy with a distinct romantic thread and it shows the value of bonds between both family and friends. It has good pacing, great acting and is well executed in both storyline and production. The characters are well written and well developed, with good chemistry amongst the cast, shown in both the romantic and platonic connections between characters. The humour is quite on point for this style of dramedy and although there are some mildly cringey moments, it's not an uncomfortable cringe but a welcome one. The dramatised, lakorn-style acting may not be to everyone's taste but it's well executed by this cast and the clear lines between the comedic and serious moments is certainly appreciated; this show has made me cackle like the wicked witch of the west and my body wrack with sobs, multiple times, on both counts. One thing's for sure, the overal message of the show; that a person's freedom is worth fighting for and that everyone deserves love, is abundandtly clear in how these characters learn about each other, love and respect each other and are willing to fight for each other. I will definitely be adding this one to the tops of my re-watch and recommend lists.
