Gen Y (2020)

Bad play out for the chracters

To be honest, the first episode came off as boring. It was a turn off and I watched it half way several times before I started to commit to finishing it. Sure the storyline for the most part is good, but the way it plays out for some of the characters is really a shame.

1. Phai, Thanu, Sandee. Phai's meeting with Thanu should have never happened. It's heartbreaking for someone who hasn't experienced a relationship. Especially when both of them experienced the shock when they met at the riverbank, it was like they were meant to be. (Derived from the way Thanu kept thinking about Phai and even drew a portrait of him.) And after Phai and Thanu talked it out, he still has to deal with a jealous and cunning friend who probably likes him. Phai deserved better.

2. Padbok. Come on man, the amount of anger given to this character is unreal. Every time he comes on screen is just a violent mess. Really did not like the way he didn't at least have a character development in the first season. I'm hoping in the coming season he would be a better person.

3. Tong and Pok. Enemies to lovers (ETL) trope but with a horrible plot. They should have really given both of them a better story instead of having them be in whatever mess they are in right now.

4. Jew. Small support role but still crucial for scenes to relieve stress from main couples. I feel like they should have him be a couple with Yuki. Would have made it more interesting as it connects the 2 faculties and any drama (for instance Padbock being an ass to the Communication Arts students) would have been more interesting than seeing him beat up Thanu and people who protect Thanu.

5. Jack and Koh. They seem like relationship tools that everyone uses for their benefit. They truly deserve a story on their own seeing as to how their relationship has played out.

As for casting, it's really good, but there could be some changes to have a more impactful cast.

Music wise; OST isn't great, BGM for scenes are okay but kind of repetitive. Makes it super annoying.

Rewatch value: I would probably only rewatch it because of Mark and Kit, otherwise no.

Edit: Added point 5.

Interesting Soap Opera

This series has an interesting start and a good over all storyline, but lacks execution. From the start it was interesting, but then you are introduced to way to many characters at different periods in the life and starts to get confusing and hard to keep up with way to many stories. I have to say I found my self loving the support cast more then the main cast. The actors for the most part are good, but the character development is very lacking with little growth for some and a lot of plot holes that don't really get resolved even with it being the first season.

The bad: I have to say I hate the character of Wayu and found him to be the most annoying in the whole series, not sure if it's the way they wrote him or the I am not a fan of the actor but it just felt a annoying whenever he showed up. The supernatural part was a great idea, but horribly done and did not continue throughout the series, that made no sense. The storyline did not always make sense and there were a lot of missing gaps in the story. I was a bit annoyed at Kit character for taking forever in dealing with his feelings and always putting his friends issues first and putting his love life last which made Mark suffer in ways he did not deserve. The worst pairing was Wayu and Thanu, no chemistry and looked bad together. I found my self skipping every most Wayu was in as he bored me.

The good: I loved Mark, Thanu, Sandee, Phai, Pok and Thong. The liked that the villains are not true villains but people who were really misunderstood by actions. Padbok and Sandee were great bad boys in the own way for different reasons but it worked. Love seeing Tong and Pok and they should have been the main stars for relationship wise. Thanu would have ended up with Phai .. they had a much better chemistry together.

Fanfiction should always be a "fan" fiction

Gen Y was written by Liu Lijun. I think StarHunter wanted to piss off ChiffonCake with this. What they did with the names and character description is just like asking for trouble. StarHunter can actually get sued for this. The possibility of being persecuted for it is low but it will again cause damage to the boys. It is like they went on war against Motive Village and put the boys on the line of fire. This can have serious repercussions that's why a handful of Bas,Kim and Copter fans were reaching out to StarHunter to reevaluate the direction they want to go to. They can express hate against Chiffon all they want but stealing her work like this is unjustifiable. Again, they could have created a good story but decided to use those names like deliberately taunting Chiffon. I love the original novels Fanfiction should always be a "fan" fiction, and thus any form of its commercialization would be illegal. This is a big issue, and a violation of intelligence properties.
I am going to be against this production (Not the actors)

why you don't focus on MarkKit?

I am sorry to say that but the first thing that I expect watching this drama is how Mark-Kit bound their relationship detached from WayuPha stories. From episode 1 until 7 I am so enjoy watching how Mark fight for his feeling to Kit. But after that I don't enjoy it. It would be nice if in this film tell us more about Mark feel in love with the firm Kit who doesn't like Mark at the first. The delivery on how Kit could accept Mark feeling is lack here. I think the writer must notice that. It's okay brings Thanu in this story is good idea but it doesn't make sense if he was doubtful on his feeling. It just made feel bad about Wayu and turn out this story focus on Thanu-Wayu-Pha story. Poorly, Thanu's acting here is very stiff compared to others. Last, funny things happend the cast play role Pha just appear at the end. But maybe it just gimmick at the first to increase the audience's curiosity who will play Pha. I hope Gen Y season 2 more brings Mark-Kit stories

Too many characters, not enough good ones

Honestly, I don’t even know where to start. Gen Y has many problems in my opinion, but I’d say the biggest one is Gen Y 2. The fact that the series was planned with a follow up in mind creates a big issue of inflating the season with too many characters and side stories, with minimal payoff.

The first half of the series was focused on the university, which was ok. Mark and Kit are obviously the best part. But unfortunately they have to share much of the screen time with literally the human equivalent of watching paint dry, Wayu. Wayu’s whole personally is that he had a boyfriend and doesn’t have one anymore. There are 12 episodes of Gen Y and not once have we learned anything about Wayu’s interests or anything that would make him interesting. We just know that he likes to cry and that his dad is rich. The university portion had a few side characters that helped a bit, like Jew, Jack and Koh, and the people from the Communications Arts. Padbok was almost as one note as Wayu. He was angry all the time for no reason and I don’t understand why he has friends. He flirts and then tries to beat everybody. Sab was fun and during the first half of the show his friends didn’t bother me much.

On the other hand, the second half of Gen Y was a train wreck. It truly looks like a different show, even the characters look physically different. Simply looking as a character, Thanu was not the worse. The problem is that most of the things about him are unexplained during his time on the show, or are simply the worst part, aka the “destiny” portion of the show. While destiny was a concept we heard the high schoolers mentioning, when talking about love in the cafe, it was okay. It’s typical BL material. But, the fact that this show turned into premonitions and visions of the future because of destiny was the worst turn I could have imagined. To be far, the introduction of more high schoolers and, with that, the amount of screen time they got was already bad. Sandee joined Padbok in the group of characters with no apparent motivation for doing what they do. Is he the god of destiny? I would not put that as impossible at this point. Pok and Tong started as a potentially interesting jock/nerd dynamic but ended up just being the couple with the steamy scenes. Their love/hate + lust relationship really doesn’t work for me. Phai is very boring in my opinion and it doesn’t help him that his whole story if the destiny subplot.

Gen Y doesn’t work, in my opinion, because it cannot stand on it’s own as a complete show. It doesn’t even really delivers as a season 1. At this point, I don’t even care about the answer to the unanswered questions, like what happened between Padbok and Thanu or why did Pha leave/came back. The team behind this show was smart on focusing so much on Mark and Kit early on, so people would keep watching to at least know what happened to the couple.

The Road to Love is Paved with Good Intentions

I'm a little late to the party, but after finishing the series for the first time I wanted to express my thoughts on the content.

With a total of 12 episodes airing in the Gen Y series, viewers were given a handful of lovable characters, some less than desirable characters, and a basic plot line to guide them through the show. Season 1 focused on the relationship between Mark and Kit, two very different characters that were destined to become our favorite ship.

Mark and Kit are one of those couples who are constantly drawing you in with their soft bickering and comedic interactions. The two characters are literal polar opposites when it comes to their personality quirks and yet, they still manage to be a compatible pair. I found their story to be funny and refreshing contrary to some of the other more heartbreaking stories in the series. The only downside to this ship is that it felt like towards the end, once they got their "happy ending", they got downgraded to secondary characters.

Speaking of secondary characters, there were quite a few of them and I as a viewer inevitably became overwhelmed with the crossover in stories and suggested love triangles.

Wayu's story was particularly difficult to watch because of the ambiguous breakup and misdirection that we had to watch the character go through. I had hoped that the introduction of Thanu would be a stepping stone to another solid relationship in the series, but the addition of a third party (Phai) made it hard to connect to one ship or the other. For a while it was uncertain who Thanu would inevitably choose and once he made a decision, all of the build up leading up to the finale came crashing down with Pha's return. That specific story line was too inconclusive for my liking and I could've done without it and all the tears.

Overall, the story of Mark and Kit, which was sweet and funny, made the series worth watching to me as a viewer. I was slightly disinterested in the secondary plot lines simply because they felt underdeveloped or confusing and took away from the main plot. The acting was on par and the reprisal of some of our favorite characters from 2 Moons was a pleasant surprise to me.

Give it a go

I actually enjoyed this one,

HOWEVER it was suppose to be a "continuation" of 2 moons but they changed Pha and never showed his face which I don't understand, then they made Ming into Mark and Wayo into Wayu...ok?

Then it was suppose to be like "Mark" & Kits storyline BUT they started over with them not knowing each other, which I didn't like because instead of showing us either there relationship flourish or crumble, they made us watch them get back together again from the beginning which we already seen.

Also Where was Forth & Beam?? They needed to be in this so we could've seen there storyline flourish (maybe im bias because they were my favorite side couple)

Also also, we didn't need Pha coming back at the end and ruining S2 (IMO) because we all were fine without him even Wayo .. oops... Wayu ?

Yes, I am definitely scraping the bottom of the barrel.

I do not know what to write about anymore because most of these dramas are just repeating the same mistakes over and over AND OVER again. Let me just say: It is not the greatest drama I have seen, but it is not that bad. It passes with the lowest grade possible, though.

~Story:
Who cares, really. It's the typical haters turned to lovers, engineers and doctors, college students with petty struggles kind of drama. I bet you have seen like twenty of these already amirite, jush? This one just joins the bunch and gets lost in the crowd. This entire university is a cruising spot. So many people is in love with so many people. It's like a huge family tree but with people falling in love. Honestly, that was very messy, as if serious relationships kind of didn't matter because you will easily fall in love again.

~Cast:
Definitely a 50/50. I wasn't really impressed by anyone, but they weren't all bad. I'ts just that the story is quite messy and it's hard to get a full take on some characters. Let's see:

Mark/Kit: Okay, but, am I the only one who thinks Kimmo looks like the lovechild between Captain (Love Sick) and the main from Theory of Love, the asshole womanizer? There are similarities on his looks and how he expresses himself. All in all not my favorite couple, though. There is chemistry, but the acting didn't sell it for me. It looks staged and lacked good reactions. We needed some more confidence between the actors.

Wayu: He won me over with the rain scene on episode two. A really decent actor who may be a little boring sometimes, but at least it came out more natural than the others. Bas is physically adorable, so I always had that need of wanting to protect him. Great casting choice, I think. In all seriousness, his plot with Pha was not interesting. Why? Mama there was nothing to attach myself into. We never really meet him or had a taste on their relationship to actually feel something about it. Too much mystery for nothing.

Thanu: Yes and no. Again, acting was a little questionable, but nothing I would hate considerably. I don't know if you noticed but he definitely felt like he was reacting on cue, which is not the most realistic acting ever. Plus, his plot line with the other guy was unnecessary and weird. That supernatural shit was so out of place. Wish he could risk it all for me, though...

Pok/Tong: Who the fuck cares about these two? I couldn't be any more unimpressed by a couple who didn't have anything good to do in the story. I personally though they had way too much screen time.

Those are all the actors I'll talk because everything else is either irrelevant or a mess unworthy to write about.

~Writing/Pacing/Editing:
Wait, let me take a deep breath... Terrible. I mean, no. This drama didn't really make sense and I really wish there was some type of quality control team because, honestly, if I were reviewing this novel and script, I would have either reject it or tell them to write it all over again. There was not good flow between stories and it lacked balance. The pacing was really messy too since we didn't have any signs or anything that almost a year had passed. So I'm here wondering why some scenes didn't match well with previous episodes. The story in itself was quite messy and, honestly, the editing was expected to be this way because there was no good flow in the story itself for the editing to work out.

~Music:
It was okay. There's only one song that I genuinely liked and it is the one with the very soft beat that the mains sing. Don't know the name but it's stuck in my head. Nice to hear on a rainy day with some tea and pastries.

Mama, this show has everything: Questionable casting, lack of quality control, cruising spots, swimming coach with titties, supernatural shit that does not make any damn sense with the plot, Wayu crying like the cutest baby, disappearances, unattractive people receiving questionable beauty awards, and cliffhangers. I don't know if I should recommend this because there's definitely better stuff out there. I mean, I guess you could watch it but don't expect anything life changing.

A Show That Tries To Do Things A Little Differently

Please note: I have not watched any of the 2 Moons shows. I know what happens in it, however. But, from my understanding, due to issues Star Hunter Entertainment had at the time, they had to make up their own story. They wanted to remake 2 Moons now that they were their own company, but they couldn't. So Gen Y is it's own brand new story that borrows a couple of characters and throws in a bunch more new ones. This is nothing new in media. It's meant to be viewed as its own entity, and thus, I will be reviewing it as such.
----------
Basically, this show is honestly a pleasant little surprise. If you want an easy to watch, surface level story where you can turn off your brain and enjoy, then this show won't do it for you.

Now, it's extremely easy to argue that all people want out of a BL is to see men kiss and maybe have sex. That's it. Thus the plethora of dramas and other media where the plot is very simple and easy to consume in lieu of some of that Good 'Ol Action.

And that's not a bad thing at all! I mean, it can be a bad. But that's a conversation for another time. What I'm trying to say is that most BLs tend to be very surface level. If there's drama, the issues are explored a bit, not very deeply most of the time, said issues are resolved fairly quickly with not much exploration, and then the story is over. I personally don't have a problem with this formula. And clearly the companies that make these BLs and vast majority of BL fans have no problem with it either.

Just thrown in some good looking guys with at least decent chemistry, a basic plot, a kiss and/or sex scene within the first 2 or 3 episodes to fulfill that instant gratification 90% of viewers have, and BAM you got yourself a pretty damn good start to an easy BL drama to watch.

However, once in a while, it's nice to have a story that really delves into and takes the time to navigate the negatives of relationships and have those negatives be the central point in the story.

STORY:

And that is the prime objective of Gen Y. Instead of having the character easily (and borderline unrealistically at times) overcome their troubles, this show chooses to explore them.
Now, side note: it may seem like Mark and Kit are the main characters and the most important pair, but I would argue that in reality, Wayu is the main character and his romance is the one that gets the most focus. I'll mention this again a little later.

Anyway: the first pair (ThanuWayu) explores not only how indecision can affect you AND others around you, but it also explores two types of love: loves based off of the fairy tale idea of destiny and fate versus love grown naturally between two people from effort made from the both of them. This leads to a character unsure of who he should pick.
The second pair (MarkKit) explores how continuously not addressing issues due mostly to miscommunication can lead to a relationship where things are not as healthy as they seem in the beginning.
The last pair (PokTong) explores the idea that just because we do something that we think is best for someone, doesn't mean it was a good choice to make; your intentions do not always out weight the person's feelings. If you've seen I Told Sunset About You, you will know *exactly* what I mean by this.

Something that's also quite interesting about each pairing is the pacing at which they get together and how it makes perfect since for them. ThanuWayu takes the longest because there are a lot of things out of their control that're affecting their ability to even get together, like Saendee convincing Phai that he and Thanu have a thing together amongst other things. Their journey to out beat destiny and try to create their own is a long one.

MarkKit get together very quickly: by episode two, they're not together just yet, but they're already kissing. Half way through the show, they're officially dating- and it seems rather quick, doesn't it?

And lastly, PokTong are forcibly together. They're the first pair to have sex in the show, but their situation is unhealthy for the both of them. They're also the first pair to make the decision to move in together. Their journey to a healthier relationship is a long one.

There are other characters and subplots that intermingle with these three main pairs. And we see how things from one pair/character affects another: for instance, Mark and Kit getting too involved with Wayu's situation starts impacting their own relationship. Another example is there's a pretty good couple of moments that hint at the fact Saendee has feelings for Phai and we get to see how that affects Wayu and Thanu.

The show takes its time to explore all of these. Alongside that, it leaves little hints and breadcrumbs that, once you really think about it, makes a lot of sense and also just makes the show fun to watch, in my opinion. And, as I mentioned previously, it's nice to see them talk about these problems in an almost realistic sense.

For instance, Wayu gets dumped in a very harsh way. Pha, without any reason or hint as to why he's doing this, suddenly in the middle of a nice dinner breaks up with Wayu and literally disappears; no one, not even his friends, can reach him. And we see how this harsh breakup affects Wayu for the rest of the season. Most BLs would have the character get over it after one or two episodes, but this one doesn't. We see him eventually get over it with the help of his friends and a potential new love interest, only for said love interest to break his trust- just like how his ex did. And it causes him to, realistically and understandably, nearly go back to square one. Break ups for some are easy to get over, but not others. And with the way this break up happened, I feel like it made a lot of since for his progression to take a while- but we do see the progression happen.

However, while I think the concepts are fantastic and very interesting to watch, some of the execution of these ideas tend to fall flat at times, or at least waver a bit.

An example of this may be the plot with Thanu, Wayu, and Phai. I was surprised to see that there were SO many people confused about this plot. On one hand, you have one pair that never get to know each other and never actually speak to each other outside of comments about how they may be destined to be together due to some coincidences that happen. On the other hand, you have a pair who has naturally grown to being friends: they hang out often and chat regularly. They care for each other and that is shown in various ways. Just based off of that alone, it's easy to see which pairing is healthier and would be favored by most in real life.

I think what tripped up a lot of people is the destiny side of things. See, in the romance genre (not just BL), destined love is a HUGE trope with Western audiences. Sure, the idea that we have a partner out there ready for us whenever sounds great. But that's not how relationships work. They take a lot of time and effort from both sides; relationships don't just fall on your lap and magically happen. And the show does showcase this. But I noticed a lot of people got stuck on the whole destiny thing because a lot of people love the idea of destined love. They expected the Thanu and Phai to be together. Hell, there's even a scene where Thanu and Phai have shared visions of their *possible* future.
The show really gets into the destiny/fate thing a little *too* much in my opinion. I think they did that to really emphasis how unrealistic it is. If they had dialed it back a bit, then there wouldn't be as many people here on MDL shocked about Thanu and Phai not being together. And the thing is that it was pretty evident from the beginning: Thanu and Phai didn't seem that interested in the first place. Neither of them actively look for each other or anything like that .But some people only looked at the two of them on the surface and thought their romance was very cute.

A big reason why I bring up the ThanuWayuPhai love triangle as the best possible example is because if you look on the Episode Guide, you can see where a lot of people here on MDL began disliking the story: right as Thanu makes the decision to stop this whole destiny thing. Once again, it's not surprising at all that he chose to do that given the proof we see up until that point. But it's clear a lot of people did not catch those moments.

Other things that could've been better executed were things like showing Saendee yearning for Phai more because those little glimpses we got were very easy for some people to forget, it seems like. More of an emphasis on that would've been great. I say that because it seems like a good chunk of people on MDL, once again, didn't catch that.

But it's also hard to say if it's really the fault of the production crew or if it's a difference in Asian viewers versus Western viewers. I say this because over there, the rating for the show is a lot higher than here on MDL, which is Western based. Maybe the destiny thing didn't really affect the Asian audience all that much because perhaps destiny in romance isn't as big of a trope there as it is here? Maybe? Who knows.

There's also the fact that this show was made, of course, for Asian audiences first and foremost. They knew since the beginning that Thanu and Wayu were endgame because of how super popular of a ship their actors are over there. For us, however, it's safe to say that majority of us in the west were not aware of any of that. Not anyone's fault, of course.

I think the execution of some things could have been better, absolutely, but not so much as a lot people on here are making it out to seem. I think the story is honestly easy to follow.

Also, I've seen people on here have major issues with how "whiny" Wayu is. I've always noticed that people have issues with emotional male characters in media, especially ones that "take too long" to get over their problems. This is a major issue of toxic masculinity that our society needs to work with. I see no issues with Wayu being emotionally open.

Some cons that I think are actually worth mentioning:
One thing that I have problems with is a sense of time- or there lack of. My first time viewing the show, I was confused by certain things because I couldn't tell when things were taking place. For instance, I actually didn't know if the beginning takes place in the very beginning of the school year, like the first day of class, or maybe half way through...?
I think having a better sense of time would've helped, especially for Wayu's story.

I did not think a 2nd year college student (who should've been a 3rd year) potentially getting with a 4th year *high school* student was cute at all. I'm so sick of adult/minor ships in BLs. Luckily its rare with Thai BLs from what I've noticed so far, but still.
Now to be fair to them, Thanu and Phai don't actually speak to each other until Phai and his friends have already passed their final exams and have been accepted into college; though they are still wearing their high school uniforms at this point, they're basically college kids. I believe in Thai schools, you can still attend your classes even though you've already been accepted into your college of choice, and I believe that's what was going on here. Thanu also doesn't know until this scene that the guy he keeps seeing is in high school. But still. It made me uncomfortable that they had these scenes with romantic vibes where they'd stare at each other from afar before this point, because we the audience know Phai is in high school.

My number one problem is how some scenes, but ESPECIALLY the PokTong sex scene in ep 12, had that one Sexy Time song playing over them. Their relationship, especially the sexual side of it, is not healthy. At all. And them trying to sexualize these scenes is gross. I have no issues with them being there, but I have a major problem with sexualizing unhealthy parts of romantic relationships. I hope there's a scene down the line where the both characters sit down and talk about hoe their sex is not good and how they can change that.
I think the reason why it's sexualized is because once again, that instant gratification that the audience has and the desire to see men kiss and fuck pretty much prioritizes anything else in terms of marketing a BL. I'm sure they didn't want to let the fans down with a sexless story, so they (more than likely the company's producers) tried to amp it up. It's unfortunate and I hope people understand that the scenes aren't an accurate representation of healthy sex.

Some people also have issues with the cast, but I'll comment on that down below.

ACTING/CAST:

The acting can be rough around the edges at time. Some of the actors are a little too stiff. If, for whatever reason, you can't stand acting like this, then this show is probably not for you. I don't blame those who couldn't finish the show because of the acting.

However, whenever I come across a show where the acting of one or more actors seems off, I do my part as the viewer and look up the actor(s) and try to see why that may be rather than just chalking it up to "bad acting". A lot of times with these BLs, it's typically that actor's first time either acting or acting in a BL specifically; that person may be straight and is having a bit of a hard time really getting into the character. There are also just a bunch of new up and coming actors. There's typically a reason for rough acting in general, but especially in BLs, so I try not to be too mean about it.

So I did just that with this show. I found that most of the actors have either never acted before, or they have but for one other small show and/or small role in said show. I found out that back in 2019, SH Entertainment wanted some new singing and acting talent, so they held a voting based competition called SuperBoy Project. Their goal was to find ordinary guys who dreamed of becoming stars, regardless of how well they sang and acted; every week they had acting and singing/dancing classes. And, honestly? I LOVE that. I noticed how a lot of the actors are stereotypically good looking (though I think all of them are hot and/or cute), so that explains that too.

I went ahead and watched the whole competition. And some of the remaining members were the ones that show up in this show: Bonus (Tong), Tora (Pok), Pon (Phai), Bank (Saendee), Jet (Jack), Junior (Padbok), Tung (Kalae), and Fergie (Jill). Some of them, like Junior and Fergie are great, but others are still somewhat stiff. However, they do grow as the show goes on, especially when you get into season 2. The two that grow the most are Bonus (Tong) and Tora (Pok) in my opinion.

Dun (Thanu) was not scouted via this competition, but Gen Y is his first ever show. I would say he's the one who needs the most work, but he does get a little better and better as time goes on.

I've volunteered on film sets where there's little to no money involved and you gotta work with what you have at the time. It's made me have this more positive outlook and appreciation for productions (either the whole production or just parts of it) that may be amateur-ish but you can absolutely tell they're making an effort. So the acting honestly doesn't bother me; I actually find it endearing!

Would the show have been better if a bulk of the cast were experienced actors? Yeah, probably. One could argue that. But I'm fine with how it is. I'm glad they're getting this opportunity to work in a drama. And the experienced actors, like Kimmon and Copter, do a great job!

Now one thing to definitely point out is how large the casting it. It can get quite overwhelming, and I don't blame people for feeling that way, especially since we're so used to BLs having a smaller pool of cast.

I personally don't mind the size, but I do think that maybe an extra one or two episodes would've helped to flesh out a bit more of the characters and some of the subplots. However, the reason why I'm not faulting the production here is because the amount of episodes is not up to them. They have to make do with however many episodes they get.

MUSIC:
Not too much to say here other than the music and variety is very good. The theme song is SO cute, and the lyrics are very fitting. As I mentioned before, some of their talent is both singers and actors, so I do like that one or two, maybe more, of the actors got to take part in the OST as well.

They could stand to use maybe one, maaaybe two more background/ambience music, but it's not anything crazy.

REWATCH VALUE:

I would say this show has some BIG rewatch value. As I mentioned before, there are hints and little breadcrumbs here and there that are so fun to pick up on not just as you're watching it, but when you rewatch it to.
Right now, I'm watching season 2, and I've been having a blast going back to season 1 and connecting dots. For instance, going back to rewatch the scenes with Saendee before it's revealed his true nature is WILD. The moments where he stares at certain characters really gave me the creeps when I go back and rewatch those scenes.

I would say that some episodes may not be worth rewatching again as a whole, but there are a lot of scenes that are fun to go back to. For instance, the fight scene is a lot of fun to watch.
I would recommend before watching season 2, just going back and maybe skimming through season 1. I don't think you'll regret it!

Kinda disappointing

Sadly i'm not in the minority by (kind of) disliking this. I LOVE KimCop and they're the reason I decided to watch this series in the first place. It's basically a remake of 2moons?? ? They didn't even bother to change the characters' names lol
Gen Y wasn't the worst but but the whole magical-soulmates kinda thing was out of place in my opinion. And Wayu & Thanu storyline was just so depressing that it was boring.
The producers did KimCop dirty!! They were advertised as the main couple but somehow they still felt like the secondary one... Cause i feel like they were trying to make ThanuWayo shine by giving them this dramatic a-- storyline while MarkKit was mostly fluff. I mean they had their fall outs and stuff but they felt so forced.
Sad i couldn't enjoy this as much as i expected but happy to see KimCop acting together. With all that was going in this series the fluff moments of them saved it for me and kept me interested. KimCop deserve better ❤️

Weak storyline

I was greatly disappointed in this series. It seemed to me to be a cheap continuation of 2 Moons, with just slight changes to the names of some characters For example Wayo-Wayu; Pha-Pa; Ming-Mark. The same actors from 2 Moons are playing similar similar characters. I don't like is in Episode 1 Oa breaks up with Wayu, with no explanation, but you have to wait until the final episode to actually see the character. Everyone including Wayu's Brother, his best friend and everyone else. Not once does anyone bother to ask Wayu what he wants or work through his feelings about Pa.

This review is just about characters (◠‿◕)

I really liked this series
P'kit and P'mark are really cute. They really have that type of chemistry we bl fans want . P'mark is really cute in this series as well as 2moons . I don't think there are much differences between p'kit's and P'mark's character compared to 2moons ( p'mark starts liking him first and starts to win p'kit's heart and on the other side p'kit gets annoyed by it at the starting but slowly starts to like him little by little ). But their screen time decreased by the ending even though they were main leads and shifted to P'wayu and P'thana. About P'wayu I really feel bad for him , what have he done so wrong that he has to go through all this pain , he was just good and started to have a lovely time with P'thana until P'pha returned.
P'thana is undeniably cute I repeat undeniably cute when he smiles. Although he smiles and talk really less but whenever he smiles my heart stopes a beat .
I was quite disappointed in P'sandee because of the things he did but I think there was a reason behind it and he's such a cutie , it's really hard to hate him. At very beginning I shipped P'sandee and P'phai because of their cute scene (◍•ᴗ•◍)
P'tong and P'pok also look cute together but in last episode I think it was unfair for P'tong , even though he agreed to it but he didn't wanted to do it.
The ending was really really surprising
I hope the 2nd season comes soon ..
My ship are P'wayu and P'thana
P'sandee and P'phai
*I don't really re-watch dramas I have already watched so my re-watch value is low*
