I honestly had low expectations going into this series. I thought it might be a bit too immature because of the high school setting, but I was totally wrong. Sure, the first episode felt kind of slow since it focused on Teh and Oh-aew as kids, but it made sense later on. That backstory really helped me understand their situation and all the tension between them.

I Told Sunset About You is such a beautiful and heartwarming coming-of-age story. It’s a really honest look at someone struggling with their identity especially when that person used to think they were straight. I think a lot of young people can relate to that kind of confusion and emotional tug-of-war.

The acting is amazing, especially Billkin as Teh. You can see the emotion in his expressions, he really poured his heart into the role. And even though I didn’t go through this kind of love story myself, this series still made me feel so nostalgic. I don’t even know why, it just hits different.

Plus, the setting is gorgeous! From the local restaurants to the downtown shops and that stunning beach, everything felt so real and lived-in. The cinematography is top-tier, and the chemistry between the leads? On point. It’s such a well-made, grounded story.
