Story: Confused/10**
Some people were hating on the show, while others were calling it peak, so I had to give it a try myself because I’m someone who doesn’t judge. I’m OK with morally gray shows. I think shows should be morally gray. They should dance on the line between bad and good because these shows are not reality.
OK, cousins kissing cousins? Weird. The confusing storyline is a bit too much. Iltjo’s brother accused him of sleeping with him, and the cousin is just accepting with this. Period!
This is not the worst show I’ve ever seen, but I wouldn’t waste my time. It actually made me run to watch “We Best Love No. 1” so I could see some actual plot progression and explanation.

Acting: 6/10:
Very stiff. The NC scenes were good, and I honestly think that’s why people called this “peak.” I don’t care about NC scenes, sooooo. The side characters’ acting was less stiff and more believable.
The rich cousin’s acting made me think he was ready for the next line. Like, the acting was so anticipatory that it didn’t feel genuine. Iltjo’s acting was giving, “And you would do it too for a check.” Like, gay for pay for real!!!

Music: Hilarious/10
Felt like a The Weeknd cover. Every time a random song came on after a scene, it made me bust out laughing. Hilarious. Do it again.

Overall: Would not recommend. Would not watch again, but at least I watched it.
