Fluffy but fun

Not a cinematic masterpiece, but I had fun watching it.

Pros:
The acting was good, if a bit over the top at times. The Janus character was the strongest, but I enjoyed watching both of the mls as well, keeping in mind that it was Cheques first drama. I found Sky particularly charming in many scenes and thought that they all did well managing what seemed like poor writing and clunky dialogue
The NFC scenes were the sort of explicit raunchy scenes I know and expect from a Thai BL, and were well done and fun to watch.
Despite the issues usually arising from an initial infuriating refusal to talk about things, issues were usually resolved rather quickly with fairly realistic relationship discussions (excepting the initial issue of Sky's refusal of Venus.
It was low drama, so rather than a major melodrama, it played out like a glimpse into the lives of the characters at this period of time. Nice low stress story.

Cons:
The writing was uneven and the inclusion of unnecessary side stories and repetition of story lines (Sky tries to reconcile with Venus, Venus rebuffs him, repeat ad nauseum) meant the pace lagged significantly in episodes 3-6
I always find product placement a con. In some respects, it was less noticable in this drama as the story was often set in the convenience store, lending more credibility to the products being there in the first place. However, the over promotion of 7-11 and the app almost made me determine NOT to ever visit a 7-11 again.

I had fun watching this and I will revisit it when I want something familiar and silly, with some NFC as a bonus.
