If you think it's a musical drama, YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE!!

I have been into BLs for more than five years, and this is the first time I am taking the time out to write a review about a series I have watched.

I have to say that I went into watching this series without any expectations, solely because of MileApo and their performances in KinnPorsche. But after watching the entire series, not only did I love their performances and get completely hooked on their chemistry, but I was also mesmerised by the story of the second leads, which I personally think was even more impactful than that of the first leads.

What I loved the most about this series was its OSTs and, more importantly, the way they were placed throughout the story.

WOWWWWW!!!

Now, coming to the realistic aspects of the series, I think it did a phenomenal job of portraying how things actually unfold in a person's life. The way certain situations and conflicts were presented felt incredibly realistic.

I am not Thai, so I cannot comment on how accurately the series reflects Thai society or its history. But speaking purely as a human being, I think the way they portrayed Mile's internal conflict, especially in the last episode, was absolutely top-notch.

And coming to the second male lead's ending, I know it was tragic, and I know I might get criticised for saying this, but I genuinely think it was one of the most realistic endings I have ever seen in a series. There was no forced happy ending just for the sake of pleasing the audience. Things ended the way they were supposed to, even if it was heartbreaking.

I do wish they had shown a little more of the reporter's life after the separation, but even without that, this remains one of the 10/10 storylines I have ever come across in a series.
