Perfectly flawed growth of teenage love, gel nails and heartaches.

There are two types of people who will be watching this. One who doesn't understand this culture and two who understand this culture. Both have one thing in common, i.e. you can't find any reason to dislike this series.
>Storyline: Like all coming-of-age stories, it also focuses on teenage characters who are keen to find their ways to love and be loved but don't want to commit and are also afraid to lose the person because they don't understand their own feelings. Sounds frustrating, right? Yes, this series is as frustrating as it sounds. The teenage angst keep you on the hook till the end. You can't even conclude your equation because it changes episode by episode, making viewers insanely frustrated.
>Direction: Boss Naruebet and Junior Naron, the creators of "I Told Sunset About You" and "I Promised You The Moon", again proved their supremacy in creating the best coming-of-age stories from Thai industry. It's the director's job to bring out the best of each and every detail of the characters and he succeeded. The intricate details of this whole thing just make this series more special.
>Acting: Where do I start? I just can't comprehend how much I could connect with the characters. Not because I belong to this generation but because these kids made me feel emotions that I didn't know existed. The portrayal of expressions of each and every emotion was so distinctively natural that at some point I forgot I was watching a drama, not a documentary. The actors were brilliant! I can see their bright future ahead.
>Music: 90s pop music and T-pop songs blended in the series so beautifully that it creates a nostalgic environment throughout the series.
>Cinematography & Vibes: I'm a sucker for beautiful camera angles and an artsy vintage feel and this series was all about getting those feelings from colorful stickers, fancy trendy clothes, cute gel nail colours and street-style art. It was a feast for the eyes. Funky and young!
>Why you should watch it?
This is the drama that draws the line between a BL and a coming-of-age story. From adolescence to adulthood, the journey of discovering oneself can be confusing, frustrating and difficult at times. Finding answers to questions that never arose is daunting and this series portrayed those dilemmas in a very delicate manner. Every episode makes you realize that Perspective is what makes things seem easier and complicated as well. Life, characters and heartbreaks, it's all about perspective. I'll always be in awe of the characters and the series for this unique experience. They made my heart flutter like no other.
Overall, a lovely series for those who are bored by watching tropey BLs and want to watch some unique and out-of-the-box content. This is perfect for you.
>Rating: No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't find any flaws. So I don't see any reason why this shouldn't be a 10. But I'll rate it 9.5 because my nails are not as pretty as theirs and I'm stingy af keke! ;p
