10/10 Great !

10/10 A Refreshing and Heartfelt Journey

This series turned out to be a wonderful surprise. While the main character may initially come across as stubborn and emotionally guarded, that’s exactly what makes her journey so rewarding. Instead of presenting a perfect heroine from the start, the story allows her to grow naturally, revealing new layers of her personality as the episodes unfold. Watching that development made the romance feel much more genuine and meaningful.

The relationship between Jane and Dai is built on patience, understanding, and emotional growth rather than instant perfection. Their interactions gradually become warmer and more heartfelt, making it easy to root for them as a couple. The supporting cast also adds plenty of charm, with every character contributing something memorable to the story.

One of the highlights is the series’ balance between lighthearted comedy and emotional moments. The scene where Jane opens up to her father about her feelings is especially touching, adding sincerity and depth to an already engaging narrative. The slower pacing gives the characters time to breathe, allowing viewers to appreciate every step of their personal and romantic development.

With solid performances, lovable characters, and a story that celebrates growth, acceptance, and love, this is a GL that quietly wins your heart. By the final episode, I found myself completely invested in the characters and their happiness. A beautiful, heartfelt series that deserves far more recognition and an easy 10/10.

This was a light, cute rom-com, it was a fun and easy watch, nothing too serious or complicated.
What I liked about this:
-The plot; naïve freshman who is kind of autistic thinks their senior hates them while said senior is head over heels for them ?? 10/10
-The comedy; they were very funny and Jane's innocence was endearing yet hilarious.
- Jane's family dynamics, their relationship was nice and it's refreshing to have a healthy family that don't hate their children lol.
-The trans representation, while brief, I loved how they depicted the trans character and her struggles and I loved that her family was mostly supportive and loving.
-ALSO Jane outright said she was a lesbian, which is a very cool thing considering a lot of GL characters just start liking the other woman and never acknowledge their orientation or talk about it??
-Finally, I liked that the OST was sung by an actual singer and not turning the lead actresses into singers as usual. and it was a good OST too.
NOW the things I didn't like:
-Too much characters, too little time. it's not their fault, yet they could've wrote a better script, there were a lot of characters and a lot of their stories were cut short while also not having time to focus on the main couple.
-Some of the camera angles were ugly, it felt experimental and I hope they never experiment this again !! this series could've been better with a good cinematography.
- AI use :/ the main character is a comic ARTIST and you are using AI???? did all the artists disappear in Thailand??? I get that the budget was non-exisitnet but really? AI?? for an artist main character??? was so disappointing.

Overall, I had fun watching it weekly, and I see myself rewatching it some time in the future. If you enjoy Thai university setting romcoms you would enjoy this.
