Where do I even start with this show? Just know that what you've heard about it is true. Does it get messy? Petty? Toxic even? Yes, yes, and yes. And it's all the better because of it because I honestly feel like this is probably the most realistically plotted BL to date.
All the characters feel so real, and whether you like them or hate them, whether you can personally relate to them or not, they feel like real people. This is the type of show I feel like all queer people of a certain age should watch, regardless of your native tongue or background, because it's such an honest portrayal of our lives.
And the very best part of the show to me is actually the absolutely incredible performances that all the main actors are giving, as they play against type in complex, challenging roles. My personal favorites were First and Khaotung, who were an absolute joy to watch, especially in their shared scenes. Everyone brought their A game though.
I've said enough though, I obviously highly recommend this show <3 haha.

Let's be honest, were they really JUST friends? Within the relationships and friendships, there was little trust. But did I enjoy this series? HELL YEAH! I had been waiting for this series FOREVER.
The love triangles are love triangling. At this point, it was more than a triangle.
Sand liked Ray, Ray liked Mew, Mew liked Top, Top liked Mew yet cheated with Boston? AND MUCH MORE CONFUSION WITH WHO LIKED WHO.
Although this series felt like a HOT MESS which believe me, it definitely was at point with there being conflict after conflict, it was still really enjoyable. From the chemistry, to the acting, there were so many things I LOVED!!!
Before anything, let's give a round of applause to the acting.. (:clapping:)
I've always admired all of the actors acting, especially in emotional scenes, but when it comes to Khaotung & First.. DAMN!! They get me in my feelings! GMMTV found such a jackpot when it comes to actors. Not only are they pretty criers, but they also get you emotional. (Me at least) The way Khaotung can express the emotions with his acting just amazes me. I truly do see SO MUCH more potential than what he already has. (Although he's already AMAZING)
Not only is the acting PHENOMENAL, so is the CHEMISTRY!!!! The expressions when looking into each others eyes.. OH EM GEE!! You could have paired any of the mains in this series and I wouldn't be mad. Mew (Book) and Ray (Khaotung) with their moments gave me BUTTERFLIES!! Sometimes it felt like they were endgame with their chemistry.
We can't forget that OST either! It's on SO MANY of my favorite playlists and it will probably stay as one of my favorite OSTS from a series for a while.
This series SERVED!! Even with Monds annoying character, Boeing. (Love the actor, hate the character..)
Now.. Let's talk about the ending.. (Ep 12, a bit of 11)
Mew and Top have now made up SURPRISINGLY after everything within their toxic relationship, Nick and Boston are happy (but will that last?), we found out Boeing is Sands ex (if you hadn't already knew). Boeing just knows how mess every relationship up.
With episode 12..The beginning scene had my jaw to the FLOOR. This whole episode had me like "Ahh!! They're so cute" or "AHH WHAT DO YOU MEAN?" Sand and Ray apologized really quickly for what happened. I'm kind of glad that the whole friend group apologized (even though Boston isn't apart of it really anymore), and some of the couples got together. But am I a little disappointed? Just a tad. I was hoping Boston and Nick would be endgame, but I'm also happy that Nick will work on himself.
DON'T GET ME STARTED ON MIX'S SURPRISE CAMEO. I SCREAMED!! I WAS WATCHING IT ON MY BEDROOM TV AND SCREAMED INTO MY HANDS! MY CAT EVEN GOT SCARED AND RAN.
Overall, it was a fun watch. I would definitely recommend this to someone who needs a little spice in their life!

What a perfect name, for a place to stay. And what a perfect series to learn a lot about relationships. Either with a significant one or with friends. This series can teach you a lot about what to and what not to do in maintaining a relationship. There's not a single boring moment I that got when I was watching it. Every episode was packed with emotional roller coaster. Everybody love to hate the antagonists in every story. But without them, there won't be a good story to tell. The conflicts and problems in this series' plot were delivered elegantly and without unnecessary extra scenes. You know how some series tend to prolong the romance or drag the conflict? You won't find such trouble in this series. This is the perfect series to learn about growth. Warning : almost every episodes are sprinkled with steamy or erotic scenes. Get ready to get hot and bothered.
Wow! Amazing! Sexy! Messy! If you're in the mood to binge some drama while drinking a glass of wine. Then this is the series for you. I love the consistency of the characters throughout the episodes. It made them seem like a realistic friend group. The mess they do to each other is a little deprived. But it's so enjoyable to watch. I went thru every emotion there is rooting for and against the characters. I related to every one of them on some level. The actors are absolutely amazing. They took the writers words and brought them to life. This was my first time seeing a few of my favorite actors play serious roles. Sometimes we don't want to see a "feel good movie". We want to see real life drama. We want to see people going thru similar mess as our own. And that's exactly what this series is.
