started off well, ended poorly
Im ashamed to call myself a bright(win) stan when I haven't finished this series, but I just couldn't watch any further because I was scared that I would only get (more) disappointed. You may be wondering how I know this ends badly when I stopped at episode 9, 4 eps before the end, but trust me I know how this story ends. I'm just not keen on seeing it play out.
This series was the standard case of the leads having more chemistry and couple-like scenes when they were flirting/not 2gether, than when they were finally "dating". I call it "dating" because it just seemed more like an awkward "no-homo-bro...but—" bromance, instead of two guys, who acknowledge that they're gay/attracted to each other, dating each other officially.
It was just cringe.
This show on its own is cringe, but not so much that it's hard to swallow down. It helps that the leads are hot, and that they mostly are really trying. But, bro, this show was lowkey a mess (in terms of both plot, and chemistry).
Now the plot could be shit for all I care, what I stick around for is the chemistry (most of the times.....TharnType I'm looking at you....) but this show fell flat in terms of chemistry so much.
Sure, both the lead actors are straight but I never asked them that? Harsh but true. Don't let me know bro. Then I feel sorta awkward/bad bearing witness to Win's uncomfortable smile while they're hugging or something. Win is cute because msot of the times his face shows exactly what he's feeling, but then- it also shows EXACTLY what he's feeling, and in most scenes **quiet discomfort**. Bruh, I dont wanna be watching a show where the leads have the same energy both off and on camera. It's Win being uncomfy most times (whenever its about like more romantic stuff) and Bright either seeming not to mind, or seeming to because it's making Win go "ęughghdh....."
But anyways, this show is cute. It's something to watch if you wanna see an attempt at making a BL with the best aesthetics, but pretty bad execution. Many scenes are AWKWARD ASF, but I feel like these actors genuinely tried their best, and for Win's first series, and Bright's first BL, it wasn't HORRIBLE. Many of the side characters were great (Green's actor, Gun, love you <3 So hilarious XD You could tell he was genuinely getting a kick outta that role lmao. Also, Tine's friend group all shares half a brain cell and I was living for it. This show is great, when it DOESN'T try to be a BL. Yikes). The crew must have worked hard, and I can only hope the next BLs we get can top this. At least there's gonna be a sequel!
But, if S2 isn't 10x better and more natural I'm suing for damages. Peace out.
