Sweet, Nostalgic
The setting, pace, and cinematography felt very nostalgic. The backdrop of visiting temples together felt quite organic. However, the angst between the protagonists could have been amplified more. One of the protagonists was surprisingly quite wise for his age! Even if only 4 episodes, the show hints at a deeper conversation about friendship (and not just romance).Was this review helpful to you?
Very Qute!!
What a lovely take on the 'Cherry Magic' franchise! It stayed true to the manga plotline while interpreting it in the Thai context. I loved how the plotline embedded within it the cultural significance of community, the commute within the city and how ordinary commuting route could bring joy., The regional (northern) Thai dialect also added to the budding romance between the protagonists. Unlike other GMMTV shows, the product advertisements didn't feel forced (thank gawd!). GMMTV also has the tendency to add Bird Thongchai's songs to inspire nostalgia to their shows; and one of his songs juxtaposed with a moment where one of the protagonists performs a karaoke was so well done! I loved how the original song played later in the same episode at a very well curated cut scene. I hold the Japanese live-action Cherry Magic (2020) quite close to my heart, and this series did a very good job.Was this review helpful to you?

Sigh. Potential to be much hotter!
The two tops instead of being abusive and psychotic could have had the hottest polyamorous relationship with the doe-eyed bottom!?? I don't particularly look for stellar plot-lines but the character development felt so haphazard. At one point things became so absurd that I started LOL-ing, even at intense, shocking momentsWas this review helpful to you?
