Unclear plot, unfinished story, but very good looking cast, lot of humour and fun!

The plot is just a framework to hold the amusing scenes together. There is a lot of humour along the way, with the jealousies of the girls and the boys attracted to girls and each other. Everything is a bit over the top and it is actually very entertaining.
A girls' school is admitting a bunch of boys as an experiment. It seems to be a Christian school because the deputy head is a nun who scolds the students, but otherwise there is nothing remotely Christian. A student jumps to her death. (A frequent trope in school stories, but this time I don't think there is a ghost.) There are some horrible bully girls and some nice ones. The girls have Japanese style uniforms with short skirts. In the early episodes the boys wear their previous school uniforms, and if they have shorts they are short. Some actors are making their debut here and do very well indeed with emotional or funny performances. I would single out Ohm Pawat as Pound, Jo Kavinpat as Song ,and Plan Rathavit as Petch. Teachers are caricatures who wear ridiculous outfits and makeup. At the end we still don't know what happened about the girl who died. There are rehearsals for a play which is never staged. Everything is left hanging. There has never been a season 2.
Any one who has seen Hite Bite Love (2023) will recognize it is the same basic plot and design! Both series are by Jinloe. Both finish with plot lines left hanging. Both have a lot of humour and teachers who are caricatures and would be fired for incompetence by any normal principal.
