Potentially sweet but butchered story
I came across this series because I watched Somewhere Somehow, which was really good. After that, I looked up the actors' other work and found this one. Story-wise, it could have been good — but honestly, if not for the actors, it would’ve been hard to watch.
Here are my main takeaways: They should’ve focused more on the love story between Fay and May. Instead, they kind of butchered it. In the first few episodes, I didn’t understand why they introduced a prima donna character to oppose Fay — it felt unnecessary.
Then it got even more confusing: both of their fathers were gay, their mothers kissed, the manager was a lesbian and ended up with the coach — it was just a lot, and honestly hard to digest. There were also two other couples that didn’t really make sense and were eventually just dropped from the story entirely.
At one point, it almost felt like they were setting up Loknam’s character to be gay too — like they were trying to make everyone queer, which made the story lose focus and emotional depth.
Honestly, it was really just Fay and May who made this series worth finishing. They were so cute to watch together, and their love scenes were surprisingly well done — the kisses felt real, mind you! I wasn’t expecting that level of intimacy, so they definitely deserve a round of applause for that.
That said, Fay didn’t always look comfortable in her role. You could tell she was struggling in high heels, and it showed in her movements. She also didn’t look her best in heavy makeup — she has a naturally young and boyish charm that doesn’t really suit the overly glam look.
Meanwhile, May always brought the sexy energy. The way she kissed had me thinking, “Wait… is this for real?” Her performance really added depth and authenticity to their scenes.
Overall, it was nice to watch — but not something I’d watch again. That said, I’m definitely rooting for Fay and May. I am a fan of Somewhere Somehow, and I’ve been rewatching it while waiting for it to finish. Compared to that, this series just doesn’t measure up — it’s not as good as Somewhere Somehow.
