3 words: pretty, genuine and heartbreaking
It's a very natural and real story, that's been brought to life by an amazing cast and crew. No unneeded drama or over-the-top B-plots in this, which I really appreciate. The whole story feels so real and progresses so normally, and that really elevates its quality.
This series has such. Amazing. Cinematography. The location, Phuket, is very well chosen to portray this slow and quiet story, with its just-busy-enough vibes and beautiful scenery. Not only the the scenery, but also the crew's camerawork is phenomenal. Just on aesthetics alone this has to be the most beautiful series I've seen so far. The angles, the colors and the way they portray emotions purely through the scene-placement is amazing. BIG props to the crew on that one.
Another really good thing about this series that doesn't really apply to the story/cast/etc. is the OST. Wow wow wow. The way the background music is used is so pretty. It's very interesting if you pay attention to it. Since a lot of series have one or two really good intro songs they use throughout, the usage of pretty instrumentals makes this series feel very unique. None of those goofy sound effects either, which would really take from the way this series makes you feel. Good call!
Of course, the cast was also really good. I didn't know the two leads had acted together before, before I watched this, but I did notice their genuine chemistry. The leads work really well together and make everything feel so much more natural. From friendship to their liking of each other, it really feels like watching two real people real feelings interact with one another.
Which of course makes this series stand out in the emotional side of things. I've seen series with wayyy more and/or bigger drama that yes, may have made me sad, but before this one I had never cried at them. It's the way these feelings feel so genuine and are placed in such a simple, but believable and natural, storyline that will really make you feel for and with the characters.
All in all, this is a series I would recommend to everyone who just wants to chill out and watch some friends fall in love (and maybe cry a little).
(P.S. don't mind my rewatch value score. I'm just not a big rewatcher)
