Amazing cinematography
This series was my intro to Pondphuwin back in 2023, and I am just now writing a review on it after stumbling upon it while stalking the director, Jojo, and being a bit stunned at the lower rating.
This bl series blew my mind when I watched it. I maintain that it is GMMTV's best BL series alongside Last Twilight, Only Friends, and My School President. One of my favorite things about this series was the Cinematography. The color grading, the beautiful scenes of them at the beach, the change from the beginning more cool tone to latter warm tone, was just so perfect imo. This was also, I believe, Pondphuwins second series together, but compared to the little bit of FUTS I saw (I DNFed it), they just had exploding chemistry and tension with each other in this. Their acting was really convincing, (as much as can be for high school students being on the run from the Mafia). Also, the OST was really great, this series is one of the few where I have actually added the ost to my playlist, loved Phuwins Living For You smmm. I knew they were gonna be big one day, because this series was just such a great start!!
As far as the second CP goes, I really could not care less, but this is a very personal thing, I usually don't care about side cps. Nevertheless, I think the actors did a great job with their characters.
This series is more intense and more on the "mature" side of bls. It is very underrated, imo, especially compared to some more recent series. I feel like if it came out now, people would've loveddd it.
Jojo is among probably one of my (if not my #1) favorite bl director(s). I feel like it's been a while since we have seen him, butttt it seems like he is coming back (w/ a few but I am MOSTTT excited about the Gentlemen's Blood, which is what led me here again, cuz I wanted to see who the director was since it looked amazing and lo and behold it is Jojo, lol, SOOO EXCITED).
