FIRSTKHAOTUNG ON TOP
changing my review after rewatching this for the 2nd time. this is actually amazing. the most under rated from gmmtv. the more you try to interpret this, the more the plot gets deeper. what i think is, The Eclipse uses the school setting as a microcosm for a corrupt nation, highlighting how openly queer individuals who refuse losing their sense of identity are met with systemic punishment. it also represents mental health and exposes the harms of both internalized and institutionalized homophobia. this series actually talks about being gay and gay life not just falling in love and romance. no one could've portrayed the characters of Akk and Ayan like First and Khaotung. their acting skills are unmatchable. if you find this show mid or boring then this is not for you and you should stick to watching shows that are easy-to-watch with a joke of a plot. if you didn't watch The Eclipse, then you are TRULY missing out. gmmtv really got two of the best actors in their hands and said yes, let's keep them in our basement and give them one show per year.
