what a bizarre marketing strategy

Overall: I cannot comprehend the writing behind this - it actually felt homophobic (see more below). 14 episodes about 4 minutes each. Aired on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8YynoXG/

Episode 1 is in the present day get together, 2-4 het (some overlap with next story GL), 5-7 focus on GL, 8-10 focus on a het, 11-13 focus on BL, 14 is back in the present day

What I Liked
- acting
- pretty good production value for a vertical series
- the product placement isn't any more than most Thai series

Room For Improvement
- it made no sense to take a new acting couple but then have them not be endgame, the whole thing felt homophobic because we only got the m/f couple at the end, no f/f or m/m, also the cut away kiss between the guys and the 'barely a kiss' kiss was insulting
- multiple love triangles
- people seemed unusually chill at certain parts
- English subtitles were very small/difficult to read
