enjoyable but... is this only season 1?
let me preface that I'm definitely not the target audience😁 nonetheless I gave this drama a try and it wasn't that bad.
this is a teenage drama with a simple story but these 16 episodes were all enjoyable... except the last one I guess.
the story begins with Jay Jay, our heroin, moving into a new school and in the infamous "section e" full of troubled guy.
she is the only girl in the class and has to fight to gain the respect of her peers.
we follow Jay Jay while she endures bullying, mistreatment and lack of respect from her new classmats but Jay is a fighter and doesn't reject a challenge.
slowly she developes a friendship with all her classmates and becomes one of them.
I liked that in every episode we explore some personal issues of a singular student and we see Jay Jay grow closer to said person while helping them out.
this is basically the leit motiv of the series. it gives the classmates some deepth because usually is not easy to include such a big cast and give them a meaningful presence, but this series does a decent job about not leaving these guys as mere ghost in the background.
as usual, we get a love triangle...of sort.
the president of the class is set to take revenge on Jay's cousin and he is wanting to use his new classmate to do so. he wants to make Jay fall for him and then leave her to "hurt" her protective cousin.. okay.. kinda of a weird way to hurt someone.
along the whole series we explore Jay's family life which seems to be problematic but we never find out why and this is the biggest issue of the series.
many questions remain unanswered.
why is Jay Jay living with her aunt?
what happened between Jay and Aries?
who is Jay's brother?
why do they have to keep Jay away from her father?
why is Percy faking his death?
what happened to Jay and Cyrus?
why can't she remember her past?
why does she have PTSD when it comes to blood?
so many questions without and answer.
the script didn't have a good pace. we get bits and pieces every 5/ 6 episodes and they create a very confused puzzle. at the end we only get more questions.
the last episode was a rush mess.
Jay is getting married and no one tells her shit.
this girl is surrounded by bad people left and right. she should just leave at this point.
the love triangle wasn't a triangle. Yuri never had a chance even if they want to convince you otherwise making Jay stumble and never saying no.
the main guy.. an annoying prick.
Jay never gets to know about the "plan" and her classmates never tell her anything, even though they supposedly became close friends. no one has a little bit of remorse to just warn her about Kiefer.. or maybe they all know he is somewhat bluffing. still not sure.
the ending is an open one.
she is supposed to get married but she kisses Kiefer and then.. cut.
I guess there will be a second season.
even the other cast members disappear. Freya.. where did Freya go?
it's a mess but it is still enjoyable.
p.s. the main guy is the worst actor on the screen😁😁
