Loved ep 1-5, ep 6 was meh

I'm gonna get straight to the point (typed 3 paragraphs just to reload the website accidentally kms)
What I liked:
-Storyline wand plot was great, it was well pased, and it was easy for audiences to understand and immerse themselves into the character's perspective (Especially episode 2 and 3, great job on presenting Tanrak's desires and confusion and want and denial)
-Acting was pretty good, there were points of which the actors were seen repeating their non-verbal actions that felt fake (E.g.: Tanrak putting the pencil case back on the same spot again) but their acting overall when they present their lines felt natural and I could follow their acting along with the story.
-I loved the choice of the setting and the background of where they filmed it at, it really brought everything to life and made me relate as a Catholic that studied in a local church for a short period of time.
-Great character build up in the plot too, it felt like all the main characters had their own backstory and I could relate to a lot of characters, and their actions adds up and fits their character pretty well (except episode 6 I will add onto that below)

What I think could be better:
-The songs seclection were perfect, the opening music of the heavenly chior version of the opening was GREAT, I LOVED it, and the ending song was awsome too, but there's a part where they reused the same "Get you off my mind by Ten Towers" song multiple times and it was genuenily So annoying like it felt like some cheap happy stock music being reused multiple times especially during the advertisments with the Jello company, I love that snack but the ads felt SO forced like I'm okay with it if you just include it in the show but putting on a full 5 minute slow motion clip 😭

! Big spoilers alert if you haven't watched ep 6 ahead!
-I didn't like the whole love hotel part, I know it's fan service partually and I'm guessing that the director wants to show Tanrak's character development of his good boy character being torn down but that was too much, it was perfect with how he was sneaking and going out with Barth as his character being stripped away but smoking and burning his own rosary was unnecessary. He commited the so called "sin" with Barth was because he can't fight it due to his strong love for him, but he didn't even try to fight against smoking, and smoking itself is a sin as it violates the command to honor God with your physical body.. And I didn't get his action with BURNING the rosary at ALL, I need someone to explain this below!

-The makeup didn't really made sense to me during modern times, I'm assuming that they're around 50 years old in the ending, but how did father Arnon and Barth's mother look like they haven't aged at all? I do see some signs of age in father Arnon during the sunshot but it wasn't enough, whilst Kongdech showed full signs of aging in the ending😂
