Love Triangles? Try A Whole Geometry Class
Gelboys is a coming-of-age story that captures all the messy, emotional chaos of Gen Z teenage life, crushes, situationships, jealousy, and all the drama that comes with it. It really reflects how teens today live, especially with social media playing such a big role in their lives.
What I love about this series is how real and authentic it feels. The story doesn’t try to sugarcoat anything. It shows teens making mistakes, falling in love, getting hurt, and figuring themselves out along the way.
Visually, the series is gorgeous. The aesthetic is really well done, and the busy city setting adds this energetic, youthful vibe that fits the story perfectly. The acting from all four leads is incredibly natural—it never feels forced. Each character shows a wide range of emotions and brings something different to the mix, which makes the dynamics even more interesting.
Now, let’s talk about the plot (it’s a wild ride):
* Person A likes Person B.
* Person B likes Person C, but stays in a situationship with Person A until Person C agrees to date him (yep, it’s a deal). Total breadcrumber energy.
* Person C is Person B’s best friend—not actually in love with him, but craves his attention and probably uses him for clout and likes. Later on, Person C ends up liking Person D.
* Person D is Person A’s best friend and secretly has feelings for him. Sadly, Person A kind of uses Person D to make Person B jealous.
* Eventually, Person A dated his girl friend—probably a rebound move. But they didn't end up together.
Gelboys is not a lighthearted watch. It’s messy, chaotic, and painful at times, but that’s exactly what makes it so engaging. It portrays the emotional rollercoaster of youth without holding back.
This series reminds me of Only Friends by GMMTV —but in a teen version.
No surprise there, since the screenwriter also worked on I Told Sunset About You, which explains why this series feels so emotionally layered and beautifully written.
Overall, Gelboys is a well-crafted, emotionally rich series that really stands out. In my opinion, it’s one of the most intriguing shows I’ve seen lately. 💅
