I was really looking forward to this but the first episode was below my expectations... yes I laughed a lot and yes GemFourth delivered, BUT when compared to the original japanese it was underwhelming.
Ep1 was cute, funny, great acting, but the technical execution was so slow and patchy and in some scenes even confusing. o.O

I know I will love it through the next episodes because all the actors are great and their dynamics are fun... fingers crossed for next episodes!

Up is such an amazing actor, I already watched the ending of episode 7 four times and I keep melting at his tears.

After this HS I came to really love Sea: he's one of us! Clumsy and fun, sweet and such a good friend!
Can't wait for the rainy SP!

You know what I really love about this series? The small, little details and behaviours - at the beginning of episode 10 when Peem wakes up and he just can't stop smiling and acting stupid while washing his teeth... that's so cute, and feels so real! Everyone who has been in love can relate!
I love this smooth vibe where tons of things are happening but at the same time nothing big ever happens... everything just "flows" and we flow with it.

And the boys: how come everyone looks so damn beautiful in this series? *_*

GMMTV, now that he's joined the team, please... main role! He deserves one, he's such a great actor!

Best communication and mature drama ever: this one! We finally have boys who are (up to now) able to talk things out in love, family and friendship! They speak, they notice each other issues and grow closer naturally day by day.

This episode was a little gem, and I especially loved Shone behaving like a real friend would, instead of being the usual "i'm the bad guy trying to steal your boyfriend and telling you to leave him for your future".

Yak's ones will soon wore out too, since he's wearing them every single episode :D

This man is just *perfection*!

Aaaaaand the crown for "worst decision ever made" goes to... JOE!! Woohooooo!!

*Up is just too cute!!*

From now on, I will forever think about PondPhuwin whenever I hear the words "Charming Prince". That was one of the sweetest "goodnight moments" of all.

I felt ep8 was slightly more unbalanced with time management and a bit slower, but never mind - I was so overwhelmed by a lovely fluffness overdose that I didn't care. XD

(The new love song is so cute! It reminds me of some Jeff Satur tunes. I really hope Keen/Sea keep working together on other projects: Keen is a gem and with some more training Sea can definitely keep it up too!)

I watched till the end for GL support, but it was so boring T_T
Many people are saying "if school dramas are not your cup of tea don't watch it", but that's not the point: currently airing OnlyBoo has the same setting and is a totally different approach to "school life". This drama was unbalanced with narrative time and characters, plus it set so many threads and instead of unwinding them it just tangled them. It's a pity because I was really looking forward to this.

Milk was great (her character wasn't, unfortunately) and Love was overly cute (except for her dark circles... even with tons of makeup, she looked like she hasn't been sleeping for ages in almost every scene, poor girl!), but they didn't save the show which got totally lost along the way.
Loved all the friends, teachers and... P'Alpha has my heart. <3

This show deserves at least a 9 for promoting HPV vaccines in such a positive way!

Why? Sigh.
It started out with that nice soft vibe but, just as too often happens, we'll end up stuffing everything in the last episode (which won't suffice, obviously).
Sigh.

honestly, I find Up to be way way waaaaaaaaaay more beautiful then Mek - his facial feautures are unique, elegant and fine, whereas Mek has the classic "I'm cool look at me yo yo yo" look that thousand other actors/models have.

Best episode so far: no Tong, fullstop.

The poster looks so much fun!

Gun excels in dramatic roles, so this will be definitely a great acting show - plus, Pond and Dew have gotten better and better too... *puts on the watchlist*

I'm way older then the characters in this show, and I'm really loving the nostalgic feeling I get while watching it - I feel like reminiscing all those "first love", "fun times", "discovery moments", "bonding" that make youth an irreplaceable part of our life.

All the boys are acting in a terrific way, I'm loving the OSTs (my heart stopped when Pond's song started this episode!), the pacing feels natural because it gives us the time to collect our thoughts together with the leads' inner growth/thoughts.

It might not be perfect (...and what is?), but it's my moment of happiness during the week.

This drama is so heartwarming! Everything is falling exactly in the right place, and I really really loved both Book's and Louis' moments! <3

Special kudos to Keen who's doing a really stunning job, this guy can act/dance/sing AND he's such a cutiepie!
