Watch this one for the lovely beaches and the interesting plot

This is an interesting series, though not a world-beater. Here are the strong points:

-- The scenery. Lots of lovely shots on beautiful tropical beaches. (So nice to imagine when we are grounded by the pandemic.)
-- Making love on the beach: Of course there's nothing too explicit, but the romantic scenes had a higher passion factor than most BL dramas manage. Well done. (I can only imagine how annoying the sand must have been, while filming.....)
-- The Plot. I won't spoil it for anyone, but there is a plot twist which is central to the story. Before that happened, I was saying to myself "wow is this just going to be the most formulaic thing ever?" But no. After the plot twist I found myself saying "hey that was intriguing....have to think about that." So in the end I appreciated the story much more.

The weak point is the pacing. In the episodes on the island there is just a lottttt of time when the two leads are getting to know one another and I think it could be much tighter and (at least) one episode could have been removed without losing anything. It's just too slow.

The actors are charming, but clearly not real experienced. I came to like Simon quite a bit because he becomes a clear character with passion and strong views.
