No, definitely not!
I have never actually been a fan of sequels, remixes and remakes. Whenever such a thing is announced, I feel like I will be disappointed. And this show just proved me right. While I will not say that it was terrible, but it definitely did not have the spark that the Thai version had.
There is the initial 'sister writing a BL', but that was it! Yugyeom is not Fighter and Sunwoo is not Tutor. The chemistry, the sexual tension, the teasing, everything is missing and in spades. The sight of Fighter walking into a space with that body, not afraid of showing his body at the drop of a hat, and the sheer steam when Zee and Saint are in a space together... I think I am officially out of words when it comes to describing them.
On the other hand, Yiwon and Ji-Oh are definitely not Zon and Saifah. While they are a bit of the redeeming factors of the show, I am not really impressed, and I am pretty sure it's not easy for any of us to be able to digest it directly.
Also, the coming together of both the couples seems too contrived and disjointed, and too fast, packing a lot of things into one last episode.
While I really liked the transition of Kim Ji-Oh's character (maybe he always like Yiwon), the rest of it didn't make sense. While I will never say that it's not a good show, it is not a great one either. It has it's good moments, the kisses are pretty decent, and the clingy Kim Ji-Oh is an adorable cutie. And all the four actors are pretty good looking. There is no manipulative female character, although some of the other classmates are a bit obnoxious.
Yiwon's sister is a good cast, and sweet to boot. I like the sister's character in the original too, but here her role is not as much.
A lot of people may feel that this is a better show, as it doesn't drag on like the original, but i beg to differ, with the caveat 'to each his own'.
As I said, I am not a fan of any kind of reboot, because comparisons to the original are inevitable, which is why I am not looking forward to the Thai versions of Kieta Hatsuoki (Gemini-Fourth) and 30 years of virginity (Tay-New). Not that I will not watch them (c'mon.. who can resist either of those couples?🙄), but with a pinch of salt!
If you are missing a bit of fluff in life, go ahead and watch this at least once, but a rewatch will not be recommended by me for sure!!
