"you're allowed to be weak, at least with me." *cries forever*

I think most of the people who give less than positive reviews for this are focusing too much on the plot.

Which may sound silly or counterintuitive, but the plot is just not the selling point of this drama, and if you can put that aside, you'll enjoy it more. The plot is nothing really special - if you're looking for a crazy deep and mysterious storyline, you won't really find that. The "twists" they try to throw in late in the game seem totally unnecessary and don't really land. But if you focus on the characters - their interactions with each other, their chemistry (even in the friendships), the dialogue and emotion, this show is really enjoyable.

The chemistry between the two leads is insane. The unwavering eye contact. The gay panic in the first half.... *chef's kiss* There were several scenes I went back and watched several times because I was so enthralled by their interactions (the nightmare scene, the night beach house scene, the pool scene). I am really excited to watch more of First and Khao together in their next series, they are both incredibly talented and feed off one another beautifully.

One complaint I have regarding character development was that I wish they had done more with Akk struggling with his sexuality (on screen). They definitely touched on it but I think it could have been a bigger part of his story. As an LGBTQIA+ person, it is really refreshing to see that depicted as it is usually a huge part of our lives and finding ourselves as people. I liked that they went into it instead of the classic BL "Well I'm just gay now" but I felt like it could have been more fleshed out.

In a nutshell - watch it for Akk and Ayan alone, it's worth it! Going to watch the Our Skyy 2 specials now :)
