I really don't understand all the low ratings. I loved this show. I'm still having an emotional reaction 2 weeks after finishing it. I thought the acting was amazing. The soundtrack was masterfully used. There is one song from ep. 9 that I can't even listen to all the way through because I get too overwhelmed. The story/plot wobbled a bit in ep. 10-11, but it was significantly less riddled with holes than KinnPorsche which I also loved. I obviously wish that Jojo had tightened up the plot but we so often have to overlook plot points in BL's and this wasn't the most difficult to ignore. It really didn't matter to me because the actual story, the one between Palm and Neugdiao was so, so good. Contrary to many reviewers, I understood their motivations throughout and their decisions made total sense to me. If you view it through the lens of people who have experienced trauma you start to see why they do what they do. Pond and Phuwin really nailed these characters, especially Pond. His portrayal of Palm was filled with subtleties and he just opened the character bit by bit. It was just great acting.
This is a 10 for me. After Bad Buddy, it might be may favorite series yet and Pond is absolutely reigning as my king.
