Pam & Rak: A Love Worth Remembering
Putting the GL label aside, Us the series has been an absolute gem—captivating me from the very first episode all the way to the finale. Every element came together so beautifully: the performances (especially by Emi and Bonnie), the immersive sound design, the seamless flow of the story, the heartwarming OST, and the deeper messages rooted in family, trust, love, and the quiet power of patience and hard work.
This was my first time seeing Emi and Bonnie, and to say they left an impression would be an understatement—they completely blew me away. Their chemistry as P'Pam and Rak was so raw, loving, and real. There was nothing forced or overly dramatized. The way their love unfolded on screen felt authentic and tender, not reliant on PG-13 scenes, but instead carried by genuine emotion and subtle, beautiful moments. It’s rare to see something this refreshing and sincere in the GL genre—or in storytelling in general.
The direction and vision behind this series were nothing short of outstanding. The entire team clearly poured heart and soul into every frame, and it shows. Each episode felt like a warm hug, even as the story tugged at the heartstrings. And yet, 12 episodes somehow felt too short—I could’ve spent so much more time with Pam and Rak. Their connection wasn’t just acting; it was magic. A kind of magic that stays with you long after the screen fades to black.
Us is more than just a series—it’s an experience, one that’s nestled itself deep in my heart. It’s hard to say goodbye, but I’m holding on to hope that this won’t be the last we see of this cast, this team, and this kind of storytelling. I’ll be eagerly waiting for whatever comes next.
