Ok let's talk...
I'm gonna apologize in advance because I don't know if this is gonna make sense and it's gonna be all over the place but most of my favorite reviews that I've read are long rants anyway😭Before I start writing everything that comes out of my brain while writing this review let me just say that EVERY SINGLE character in this series should've been dead because of the injuries they all get throughout the show but it's ok nobody has to know I guess🤣.
Let's start of with the fact that this is the most BL coded (b)romance I've ever watched. Like they literally stare at eachother with most longing eyes ever and you can't convince me that it's in a friendship kind of way. Like they literally say "I love you" to eachother at the end of the last episode and before you come after me I KNOW friends can say I love you to eachother too but it's not just the words it's the way they said it and AGAIN THOSE DAMN LONGING LOVE FILLED EYES THEY GIVE EACHOTHER THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE DAMN SERIES. The chemistry between the two main leads was quite literally better than most actual BL's I've watched(PLEASE I'M BEGGING YOU PUT SKYNANI IN AN ACTUAL BL🙏 I will actually sell my soul for it). Anyways now that we got the fact that this is basically just a censored BL out of the way, let's talk about the side characters. One thing I absolutely ADORED about this series that a lot of series don't do is that pretty much all of the main side characters had their own stories going on in the background and it really gave not only the characters themselves but also the story as a whole a lot more depth. Especially because Class 2 is supposed to be like the "troubled kids", it just makes the whole series so much better. Another thing that I really liked is usually I hate or am extremely annoyed by at least one character in shows but I liked all of the characters in this. The only character that kinda annoyed me a few times was Ms. Jan and I know thats probably a hot take but I just feel like sometimes she was SO pick me like for example almost anytime the students weren't happy with something she did whether it was her choice or the higher-ups, she would do the whole "I'm a horrible teacher and I don't deserve to teach and you all hate me" type of stuff and it was just annoying but I didn't dislike her. Mr. Sung though, can we talk about how he came in clutch and saved everybody SO MANY times, especially in the last episode where he storms in to Jengs wearhouse that his gang is based and literally beats the crap out of everyone and saves the day, he had to pull out his high school days(I'm sorry). I really like all the character development too, a major example being Ken and the twins obviously. I liked Airy's character development too and the development of her and Eve's friendship(in another universe they're dating, trust). I saw a lot of people say they thought the story was dragged out but I disagree. I'm glad(even if it was painful) that Shin didn't forgive Saint right away even though it was clear that he wanted too. So even though it took like 9 episodes for them to half make up and then another like 2 for them to ACTUALLY make up, I think it was well written and again I'm glad Shin didn't forgive him right away. Even though within a few episodes I guessed it, I really like the fact that Shin wasn't upset about his leg but the fact that Saint left, I think it was really wholesome(again contributed to the fact that this was in fact a BL and not bromance but you know I digress). I'm glad we got to see the two campus' finally all be friends at the end, it was funny when it first happened and the only one who was kept out of the loop was First because he was a little late to class and he was kinda dumbfounded seeing everyone together and then when the twins came and dragged him over and he was kinda like 'what the-'. I can't explain my happiness seeing Shin and Saint act like they did in the flashback scenes, I was definitely giggling and kicking my feet. I don't even know what to say about Chatjen because I just ADORED him to no end since he first showed up on screen and if I start talking about him it's never gonna end. One thing that was kind of disappointing was that I was hoping to hear more about what happened to Cable's brother because he kind of mentions it while arguing with his mom and then it doesn't really come back up. On that note, I really liked Cable too, his mom(the principle) kinda pissed me off sometimes but it wasn't crazy annoying. Cable was so sweet like I wish the other characters in the show hadn't slept on him so much, he was so sweet. I LOVED CHINGCHING! That's my child. I loved that she was a Saint supporter to the very end like that girl was gonna support the fact that that's her brother and she loves him just like she loves Shin to the death, she was taking her love for Saint to the grave. When she sided with Saint and Shin at the end of episode 15 and gave her mom no choice but to accept Saint again, I was "YES WE LOVE CHINGCHING!!!". Anyway I'm gonna stop this is getting a little long, I hope you can see how much I absolutley adore this series and recommend everyone to watch it. 10/10 for me. LOVED THIS!(none of you can convince me that this wasn't a BL). If you made it to the end of this I applaud you because I don't know how helpful this is and if you read this all and haven't watched this yet, I think I just spoiled at least half the story and I apologize. Oh and my rewatch rating is only because I can't rewatch anything because I get bored because I already know what's gonna happen but I tried to think about if I were to rewatch it how willing would I be and I just feel like some of the absence of suspense since you already watched it would ruin the experience the second time around but other than that I feel like it could be a good rewatch.
