I feel like I had the wrong idea while starting this drama. I thought it would a mystery /thriller but it was mostly just high school students doing high school stuff with a little bit of mystery plot thrown as an afterthought.

Episodes were dedicated to trivial stuff like stealing best friends and the students doing English Project. Like if I wanted to watch a bunch of students doing their project I would focus on my own studies instead of watching a drama.

Even the characters were not that great. Mind was so weak and constantly depended on others to save her. I get that she was supposed to be gentle and sweet but if she can stand up for her friend then why couldn't she stand up for herself, make it make sense. Also it would have been fine if they showed some character development and her growing and speaking for herself but even till the last episode she depended on her sister.
Gun is the only well done main character. I also liked Lyla's struggle of figuring herself out.

I didn't really get SLS as I didn't care about the characters that much but even I can see that Gun and Mind made way more sense. They literally had two better ships and went with that endgame.

The acting was definitely top notch. Namtan is one of my favourite Thai actress for a reason, she never disappoints. She was able to portray both characters so differently that there was never any confusion who was who despite them looking too similar (I know they are twins and portrayed by the same actor but they should have given them different hairstyles or wardrobes. With a less skilled actor I could see this being a problem).
Seeing as this was Gun's first role he did a great job. All the supporting actors were very good.Happy that finally Sing got a role that was not just a comic relief.

My favourite thing was the relationship between Meen, Mind and their mother. Their were many emotional and beautiful scenes in the show but the mother daughter scenes were the only one that had any impact. The music was definitely a plus as well.

My main issue with this is the mystery or the lack of it. They were building up the mystery for 14 episodes and in the end it was such a small thing. It was laughable. Could have easily finished the drama way earlier, it didn't need that many episodes as it became quite draggy in the middle.

I haven't seen the Korean version but I feel like the source material wasn't that great to begin with. A remake should be able to improve upon the mistakes of the original which I don't think this did.

If I had watched this as a high school drama then maybe I would have liked it better as it really dealt with many important themes but it was marketed as a thriller and so my expectations were different.
