First and foremost I would have to say, The story of this drama alone deserves an A+. It was a very heavy themed and an extremely serious topic, that needs to be seen but something that people would rather avoid talking. I gave the story 9.5 coz it deserves an applause. It has shown the terrible impact of social media, the cruel reality and how it 'Effects' the life of people involved. But i couldn't give it full score as the length of the series was too short. I wish they had more episodes and delved a bit more into Keng's personal trouble and what made him lose his mind, or the development of shin and Keng's relationship, or the development of Shin, Bright and Pramote's frdship (their frdship has to be the brightest point in the entire series), Bright and Pramote's relationship, Shin's ordeal and his recovery etc. I was really shocked to know there was only 3 episodes esp with a drama so intense. I really felt upset that such an "IMPORTANT" drama which delivers such an important message was ended so abruptly.

ACTING
Hands down, i loved the acting of Oat. Oat as this guy who is craving for true love and care (having been neglected by his parents and friends only using him for benefits), has gone off his rockers after misinterpreting Shin's good intentions, was very convincing. It is really tough to act out a character who isn't lovable and is the target for hatred. I absolutely respect Oat for braving this role.
James, Yatch and the actor playing Pramote(sorry i dunno his name, but he acted WOW) did a great job too. Esp James who as the victim of all this effect has very strongly and very convincingly showed the nightmare that he has to go through and rightly conveyed the horror of all this. N the frdship between these three boys was very heart warming. Yet again m very upset it was only 3 eps.

MUSIC
The music was right. The bacground score rightfully conveyed the creepiness of when the pictures were clicked, as well as during the budding frdship of Keng and shin, the sweet romantic score was beautiful. I like the music but at times it would be unreasonably high pitched and placed at wrong time.

REWATCH VALUE
Though, the story is amazing and the actor's acted brilliantly, unfortunately, such heavy themed drama u can't watch again and again. As it is pretty depressing and hard to digest. Though, if the drama had more episodes i might have

Beautiful story and acting, but has some flaws

To make myself clear, I really loved the series and the acting. First let's talk about the good things

1)Acting

Gun was amazing in the first half of the story. He portrayed third and his agony so well. I felt his pain and helplessness. I also felt very torn and angry when Khai played a trick on him to test him. I was broken when he confessed his love in front of the camera. Wow...just wow❤️❤️ Though in the later half, I have to admit, I was quite annoyed with him but that's a different discussion. Off....my oh my...the guy is a genius in portraying an asshole. I wanted to punch him so bad esp when he knew Third's feeling and still kissed him to hurt him. I was extremely angry and wanted to kick him in the balls (that's just the testament to how good he acted) Mike did a good job with this guy in love with a teacher (come on admit it, it's a bit of a guilty pleasure?) I have always loved White since lovesick series but Earth and White's coupling was somehow more interesting and touching to me than really the main couple (sorry am a sucker for side couples)

2) Music

This has to be my Favorite OST after Lovesick/LBC ost, UWNA ost and DBK ost. It was so good. It hit you right on the feels and it was placed in such correct moments that you would tear up because how the music made you feel

3) Different setting

Finally, a series with no engineering or doctor as the background. God, I was getting tired of engg and doctor background. This had a fresh background of film students and the bonding over making the short movies. The different setting made the story a little more interesting esp when Khai started pursuing Third!!

4) Friendship

I was truly happy to see the four guys frdship. It was not the perfect one but it was heart felt. They were supportive, caring and very real. The male bonding other than love was so well depicted not just between White, Mike, Off and Gun but also between Earth and Gun, Gun and the president of drama club, also the president of drama club and Earth. It was so heart warming not cheesy neither exaggerated. Really loved all the male bondings.

5) Character development

One of the things that thai bl lack a lot is properly creating a character arc. But here all the characters had an arc and it was so well depicted. Third had an arc, khai had an arc, Un had an arc, Earth had an arc, Mike had an arc and they were not messy but slowly revealed. I liked how the characters grew and changed as the time went on. Khai's was the biggest development but I particularly liked Un's development as it showed how true feelings can change a person's heart naturally.

Even with all the above great points, there were some really annoying issues as well

1) Third in 2nd half:

I know EVERYONE FELT SORRY for third even I did but people tend to forget that Khai had no idea third was in love with him so his actions were not meant to hurt him except when he did discover the truth and used Praw to hurt Third so that Third would give up. But in the 2nd half third was being plain mean. He knew how khai felt but didn't believed him and was being a complete jerk. Plus, towards the end he became annoying and boring. Sorry it is my personal opinion so don't come at me. I just felt Third just got annoyingly bitchy at the end

2) No time to other plots

When you can't properly give time to other plots then don't put so many plots. I wanted to know more about how White and Earth came to like each other and also how Earth started to like him and how he and Gun became frds. Same for Mike and teacher thing (though I gotta admit, they still managed to do some justice to it) Same for Un and the girl he liked. So many plots but barely any time to fit in all. The director still did much better job than many other dramas but still I felt too many plots were introduced but not well explored


3) Slow first half

This is just nit picking but I felt that till ep 7 the story was TOO SLOW. Third was going on being hurt by Khai and Khai was going on ignoring Third's feeling and round and round it went. I just think that portion could have been shrunk in 4 eps and rather used to show some side characters story development.

That's about all. It was a good drama to watch and enjoy. The first half might feel a bit draggy n painful but please bear it, coz it's worth it. Highly recommended!! Thank you.

Better to assume that there is only one couple

Hi there.
Being a fan of bl, I have watched quite a few and I have to say this is one of the best story in history series after trapped. But just like all the series, this series too has its flaws. Let me first talk about the good points

Setting:

Being an avid watcher of BL, I am kinda done with college and high school theme. So, this came as a very refreshing change. I loved how the setting was that of an office rather than high school or college. This makes the guys, adult and mature men and hence, you can pretty much understand that it is no hormone fuelled reckless rash romance but rather a mature love story which itself brings a very different feeling.

NO love at first sight:

God that pisses me off the most. No! NO! And NOO!! Love at first sight can't be so deep that you are ready to throw your life for the person. Once or twice, I get it, it can happen but it is like a trope in every BL. I am sick of it. You cannot see an emotional bond between the characters and you can't see the reason for the characters to be so invested in each other. BUT this series made a difference. They showed them to be frds for 5 years and sharing a deep frdship and emotional connection. So, you can understand the characters deep care and protectiveness for each other and you can truly feel their love that organically developed from the already existing deep emotional bond. So, when you see how the characters are prepared to throw their life or job for the other, or raise their voice against the authority, you can understand that it comes from the strong feelings they have for each other.

Confusion and denial:

This is something I feel is very necessary to be portrayed. I have seen in many of the thai bl, the guys quite readily accept the other guy's feelings but honestly, that doesn't seem real at all. Most of the time, this guys are even portrayed as straight character, so, I find it ridiculous that they don't even find it confusing that they are feeling something for someone of same gender. It is same as a guy who had known himself gay all his life and out of the blue he started to feel something for a girl. Isn't it obvious that the guy would be confused and not sure of what this developing feelings are? Many may take it in a negative connotation but I don't think it's negative, rather it gives a touch of realism to the story. I loved how both the main leads struggled to come in terms with their developing feelings for each other. In fact, that confusion makes their feeling seem more real. Here, one main lead was confused and another went into a denial mode as they couldn't immediately accept the change in their feelings. But soon the love they have for each other, help them overcome their confusion and denial and ultimately accept their feelings. I really loved how it was portrayed

Acting:

This deserves a solid 10/10. All the actors were really very good actors. They did a great job. They were so natural, there was no awkwardness or unnecessary silence or hot stares, but they had natural conversation, playful moment, even during the time when they were still coming to terms with their feeling and won't interact, it did not feel like 'well they didn't exactly talk to each other much anyway' but rather felt like 'damn what is wrong with them, why won't they talk it out' which goes to show how amazing their acting was and how natural their frdship and conversations was portrayed by the actors. Not only the main leads conversation with each other but also with other characters felt real and not forced or weird. I really LOVED their acting. Even the antagonist characters made you hate them and give you a foreboding everytime they came on screen. Some of the minor characters, did not acted well enough but I forgave it. They were anyway not a very impactful characters.

The music was really very heart touching and I loved how the characters developed with the story's progression.

Even with all the above positives there were some real issues with the story. I said story but not the actors. They really did a great job.

1) Incestuous relationship and drunk sex

Okay, I know the second couple was not blood related but I cannot help but feel very creeped out with the relationship they portrayed. I hated how the younger brother was SO possessive and stalked the older brother. Without even confirming his older brother's feeling, he pretty much forced him to it. Getting him drunk, sleep with him where the older brother's consent is dubious and making video of it...I am sorry but all this acts were criminal. I absolutely abhorred the younger brother's actions and wanted his older brother to punch some senses into him as well as put him into some therapy as none of his actions seem to be from a stable mind.

2) Incomplete storylines

The fact about transfer of that awful VP after being complained by Li cheng was only communicated through other minor characters and felt very incomplete. Another was during the end of the series where too the plot line of Li Cheng being accused of embezzlement and how he cleared himself of all charges and how Muren got the VP trapped was all communicated through minor characters. The conclusion of the consequence was never shown even the antagonist evaporated into thin air. It gave a feeling of incompleteness. I wish they had completed the whole storyline or at least shown it in some subtle manner rather than having been communicated through gossiping office girls.

3) Not all guys just you

This is a little overused. Okay I do understand there are other sexualities in the world and sometimes they do not restrain to any gender but this is really a bad way to portray it. I know am being a little nit picky but I can't help it. I would have liked it if Licheng or Muren had admited to being bi rather than saying it is specifically that person who they feel it for. It is fine if it is once or twice, but it is used in every BL I have watched. It doesn't make the story BL anymore but rather demi sexuality. Hence, I would like to see a story with characters being gay and have been falling for guys and not just "it is just him" thingy!!

Pretty much that's all the issues I had with the story but otherwise, I loved the main couple...I wish to see them in some other series again!! Loved their acting and their frdship.

Before I start, i would say, I m quite impartial when it comes to reviewing but here i can't help but mention a name who quite literally stole the show for me Noh Min Woo.
OMG!! Keeping aside the fact that he is drop dead gorgeous, he played the most complicated character embroiled in his trauma, suffering and troubled. He has a wonderfully strong Screen presence. He was magnetic.
Sorry for that babble but can't help it, it has been a while since i saw such a great acting. Aside from that this thriller is without a doubt a roller coaster journey with many twists and turns and almost unsolvable mystery and horribly corrupted officials (portrayal of real world) and twisted murderers.

Story:
There is just one word that describes it : Awesome

Cast:
I have already said enough about No Min Woo, who played the beautiful, traumatized, troubled doctor suffering from DID.
Baek Boam is same as first season; rude, uncaring, a bit of a rule breaker, tenacious and most of all Extraordinarily gifted. Though, I wish they don't portray him so immersed in autopsy all the time, it gives off the feeling that he is autopsy maniac. I liked that at the end, seeing Do ji Han's broken state over his friend made him melt a bit (maybe reminded of his lose of frd), also him taking initiative to help him. I wish they would sometimes portray that soft side of his.
Eun Seol: She has to be probably the only reason i m a bit disappointed with the series as her role was pretty much cut short to the point she was a support. Otherwise she was just like last season chirpy, stubborn, smart and headstrong but here her growth as prosecutor is Visible
Do Jin Han: He was given a lot of screen time and he didn't disappoint at all. He brilliantly potrayed the upright, strong and determined prosecutor we all look up to
Sally: Though, m still very enamoured by Stella of previous season, but I really liked her acting. I just wish they didn't give her the same quirk as Stella.
Yang: As the loyal right hand man of Do Ji han, I was very taken in by his personality. He is impulsive, hot headed, impatient and sometimes rude but he is a very loyal, determined and strong assistant prosecutor. His devotion to his friend and immediate superior, Do Ji Han, is very heart touching. I loved their bromance. It was another thing that made the series so engaging.
Chief Prosecutor Gal Cheon, Prosecutor General Noh, Oh Man Sang: As villain, they potrayed the character very well. I despised them to the moon and back which shows the extent of their good acting
NFS staff: whether it is chief medical examiner Ma, or director Park or Han Soon Yeon, or our beloved chubby doctor, they played their part excellently
Seoul Eastern district Office staff: Chief officer Kang Donshik, Det. Moon, officer Cheon Mi Ho, det. Kang everyone had a role to play and they did a great job

Music
I was pleseantly surprised by the music which brilliantly showcased the dark thrilling theme and the OST (Dr. K by MINUE) that kept playing on the appearance of Doc K was so apt with him and went extremely well with the doctor's dark persona!!

I highly recommend it. This is one mystery thriller everyone should watch. It has every quality to be one of the best thriller drama ever. N esp with Min Woo's Brilliant acting, I give it 10/10

PS: Last but not the least, Special mention to Director and story writer who made this series so intense and thrilling. Gomabsenida!!

It's a super cute drama with a lovely storyline and a very cute cast. The actors potrayed their characters very believably. I totally bought mook as this naive pretty rich girl and suea as this handsome penniless guy. Their chemistry was beautiful. I loved their playful fights, teasing, and cute cum romantic scenes.
The only and VERY slight take away for me was at the last ep, where suea's few comments sounded very sexist and quite frankly humiliating. M glad he realized his mistake.
Otherwise, I really like the story, loved their chemistry and honestly found their teasing and playful fights very adoooorable n entertaining!!
I highly recommend this. Do watch. It will give u butterflies in Ur stomach the entire series☺️☺️

Okay before I start I want to make this very clear that this are my personal viewpoint and is meant to offend no one.
First let's start with the actors. The actors are fab and their acting is great too.
Next let's talk about story. It has to be my first thai romcom that has such a shitty storyline.
Next talk about characterization. If anything that has put me off the most it has to be the characters given to the actors (n such good actors no less) . The guy is downright asshole...a cheater, betrayer, sexist, man-whore, arrogant control freak, and a manipulative typical so called man. He had zero redeemable points for me. No character and I mean not even villains have turned me off as much as this character. N if this was not enough they showed the girl some sort of mute, naive, bratty, masochistic and blind in love girl. I mean let's be realistic, I don't think any girl would want an incorrigible bastard like the guy as her boyfrd or life partner for crying out loud!! N btw he is violent, threatening, overly possessive, and most probably thinks sexual assault is no biggie.
I m actually slightly taken aback by how many viewers found it absolutely fine but to me it was nothing short of DISGUSTING!
I just couldn't take it...I hard to drop it in the 4th episode. It was too hard for me to digest.
Finally, if all this violent, controlling and manipulative stuff is Ur style, u r free to watch it but forget about re watching, I don't even complete watching it!!

*Important topics handled VERY POORLY*

First, anyone who loves this series, do the favor of not reading this review as I have no intention of making anyone upset or angry and neither I have any desire for anyone to come at me saying I am insulting one of the most popular bl of the year!!

First I will admit, I just couldn't complete the series, I was APPALLED at how awfully the serious issues of male-rape, child abuse, sexual assault, mental health issues, and homophobia was handled!! More like NOT HANDLED AT ALL!!

This series had the potential to be a very IMPORTANT and the best series of the year but it FELL flat on its ass!! However, seeing the ratings, I guess not so flat afterall. I do not understand why people did not see the glaring problems this series had and are so invested and love it like it is the best bl to be made??!!!!

The problems I had:

CONSENT: I don't know how to emphasize this particular word. People need to understand that there is something called "Personal space" and respect the hell out of it. Here, the main lead tharn has absolutely and appallingly no concept of it at all. He is abusing his position as a roomate and WITHOUT any consent from his roommate is kissing him and even giving him hickeys when he is asleep or drunk. He even gave him bj without consent and strangely instead of being shocked and furious at this, Type is somehow totally okay with it. No sign of him panicking at being taken advantage of. No sign of him complaining to authority about the sexual Harassment faced. Nothing!! How and why??? If I was in his place I would be calling the cops!!

NO CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Till the ep I watched I was sick and tired of both Type and Tharn personalities. They were so poorly written. Not only Tharn was manipulative, whiny, creepy asshole but Type was also violent, irritating, homophobic bigot. Over the eps, their characters only became worse and worse!! No improvement whatsoever

NO RELATIONSHIP ARC
I want to know when did Tharn and Type even fell in love??!! Their relationship was more like fuck buddies than anything. Tharn was shown to be in love with Type from before but when?? And why? What is good about him?? Type was shown to have suddenly felt he was compatible with Tharn but that is all...when did he started developing feelings? What did he found different about him from other guys?? In fact when did he even started seeing him in different light? They both were not even shown to have developed frdship let alone love.

TOXICITY
Both characters as mentioned before were very poorly written and just as poorly excited. Their relationship was the proof of their poor characters. Some may argue that, their relationship was not perfect as they were having some past issues but my question is why were they not shown to be resolving or healing each other?? Isn't that the whole point of the relationship?? That you find comfort and happiness with the person, but all that I saw was both of them being very TOXIC. It was a very poor example of a relationship.

TIME LAPSE
This was a huge issue to me. I have NOT read the book so I don't know how much time has passed. The jump from one scene to the other was so sudden and sometimes I dunno how much time has passed unless I read the comments.

UNNECESSARY SIDE CHARACTERS AND STORIES
The main couple and their story in itself was very heavy themed and not properly executed but for no reason at all a korean guy was introduced whose roommate used to pry on Tharn and Type. Then there was the whole theme of Tar and Tum and hints of their creepy incestuous relationship. Also Tar too was having some deep rooted trauma from assault (but later I got to know that tar had something to do with Tharn and if it helped the relationship of Tharn and Type to improve in later eps then maybe this storyline was not so unneeded afterall but still I feel there was no need to explore Tae's relationship with his brother)

LGBT REPRESENTATION
This was my biggest concern and my biggest issue with this whole series. Here, Tharn is portraying an openly gay guy and he is basically sexually harassing another guy. Then the "sisters" or effeminate gay guys were a too touchy-feely without regard of others personal space. And when resisted, making the guy isolated in the entire college. Plus, the entire issue of male rape. This all concludes to show LGBT community in such a bad light. It is like all gays are only thirsty lusty male who only loves to get a feel of other guys and if you resist they will assault you!! Like WTF??!!!!

I was very very VERY disappointed with the series. I thought, I will see a series where it will show how a guy who had been a victim of male sexual assault and traumatized for life, resulting in him turning homophobic, would end up falling in love with a guy and deal with his own sexuality and overcome the trauma he has suffered. And also how the media treated his assault as a money making headline and revealing his identity resulting being topic of discussion and not allowing him to forget the horror he had to go through. I also hoped to see Tharn helping him overcome the trauma and helping him with therapy and counseling. But INSTEAD, I saw bay executed story with a very toxic relationship and poorly handling a series topic.

I just had to drop it as I couldn't take how pathetic and horrible the series was becoming with each ep. With that said I will agree, the actors are handsome and acted well. Their characters were written very bad but they tried their best and chemistry or steamy scenes more like was well done. I just wish the directors had invested just as much time in the story and the main couple rather than unnecessary plots which could have easily been shown in second part!!

Acting was great even with horrible script and pacing

Hear me out, don't come at me without reading the whole thing.

I have likes and dislikes. First I ll say what I disliked and then go to likes.

DISLIKE

1) Script:

Frankly speaking, I have often found Thai bl to have this issue. The scripts are just too bad. There is no meaningful dialogue between any of the couples or characters for that matter. Mostly, the dialogues are just too corny and cringy and hard to sit through. It was same here. Pete and Kao seem to be so cheesy that I was cringing half the time. Instead of being romantic, a little naughty and playful that we saw in Kiss me again, here they were excessively sweet and corny. Come on, who speaks like that in real life??!! I found Sun and Mork to have better conversation and at least it felt more grounded

2) Pete's attitude:

This was a major issue to me. I already knew that Pete is short tempered and pampered. So, being previleged as he was n his father being the most accepting n understanding father ever, he couldn't see Kao's side of the problem and acts very immaturely and unreasonably at times. I was hoping to see some growth in Pete's character in this show. After being in relationship for a year, you would expect him to be more trusting and understanding towards his other half. However, I was sorely disappointed. It took just one lie from Kao to make Pete lose all trust and fly off the handle. But I would have understood, if he was angry but he refused to listen to Kao at all and understand what led to him lying to Pete. Infact, when he did decided to have a conversation, he easily led himself be misled by Non when he (of all people) already knew what kinda asshole he was. I was so angry when Kao was sexually harassed by Non and after the horrid experience, he needed Pete, he wanted to apologise for not heeding his words before and tell him what happened, so Kao called him again and again but not only Pete ignored it but went on to switch off the phone, and delete all their pictures together. (What if Kao was in a serious trouble? What if Kao had gotten raped that night?) Pete's selfish attitude made me so mad. Being angry is fine but Pete acted as if Kao has murdered his family or something!!! I was so unhappy and angry by his attitude. Finally, they did show some growth of Pete but that happened in a matter of 1 ep...yeah you heard me right, 1 damn ep.... Instead of a gradual growth over the entire series. This was very disappointing.

3) Pacing (esp in Mork and Sun's relationship)

How do I explain this?! The beginning was so strong, it was going so well, with the establishing of Non as antagonist, Mork and Sun's relationship, Kao and Pete's relationship etc but then like in a matter of 3-4 eps in the end of the series all the hell broke loose and got repaired too. For eg: Mork and Sun 's relationship started off slow from Sun mistrusting Mork to finding his honest and kind side, then slowly developing trust on him, starting to share their troubles and forming an unlikely bond. But almost all at once, the relationship went from 2 to 200. They went on a city wide drive, confessed, kissed, had sex, became couple and had couple's fight as well in a matter of like 3-4 eps Wtf??!! Because it accelerated so much, that the slow developing relationship and the forming chemistry suddenly evaporated. I was expecting so much from this couple that I was left very sour and annoyed. Same for Kao and Pete, they were all lovey dovey and in a relationship, having sweet romantic moments and then BAM, all at once, Pete got to know Kao's lie, he almost broke up, Non showed his true colors, attacked Kao, destroyed his reputation, Kao confessed to his mother, Pete helped Kao restore his reputation and they made up. I cannot help but feel it to be so hurried. I couldn't get the feeling of crisis at all. Even it was just 1 ep where Pete was shown to have grown a bit, and having calm discussion with Kao. Done!! If the directors worked on the pacing the story would have came out so good!!

4) Non

Godddd!! Where do I begin?? In the beginning I was truly impressed to see that the directors were trying to make a complicated or layered character but I was very badly led down. He was plain annoying. I was waiting to see a guy neglected, deprived of love from his only parent and trying to fill that emptiness through Kao. I wanted to see an antagonist who was 3 dimensional and relatable instead we got an asshole, who used his past as an excuse to mess up the life of the only person who showed him affection ???

LIKES:

Even with the flaws above, there were things that you just have to like about the series

1) Acting

The actors no doubt were really great. I esp appreciate Tay. I feel he is one of the better actors I have known in thai bl. He really brings out that previleged ignorant boy who easily loses temper and is possessive and stubborn to the point of absurdity but he still had potential to be a better person thanks to his love for Kao. He fleshed out the character really well. Though, the script was bad and the story's pacing has issues, I still found myself appreciating his acting. Infact, some of the extremely corny lines, he pulled it off amazingly. If not for that fact, I might have just skipped those scenes. New did bring out a good performance. I esp liked his scenes in the end of the series where he was attacked, and then confessed to his mother, then his sorrow on him and Pete almost breaking up but, I felt that in romantic scenes, he was a little stiff. I could see him trying but it was not as natural as it was for Tay. Sun and Mork did a really good job. Though, Mork has room for improvement, just like New, I could see him trying. The romantic scenes looked a little off because of his awkward and stiff performance but Sun was really natural and even with the bad script, he really did a good job. I could see how he was looking all lovey dovey towards Mork and how he was trying to seduce him. It was really cute. The side characters also did a good job, Tay and New's frds, rain, and manow...all were good in their own right. It did not look out of place or exaggerated ??

Music:

I do not care if anyone liked the OST or not. I bloody hell LOVED it. It was new and there was something so beautiful and dark about it. In the beginning, I found the music to be odd but it grew on me. And as more and more the eps progressed, the music seemed very appropriate. The music placement in many of the scenes were very well done esp the music during the romantic moments of Kao and Pete was so good ??

Story:

Yeah I know what your gonna say "dude you just said the story was not good" but no the story was good, the script and the pacing was not. The story of Mork and Sun esp was awesome. I could totally see an older brother mistrusting a troublemaker like Mork who uses more of his hands than brains. I also liked the fact that it was one of the only relationship where both were not college students and it felt mature rather than hormone fuelled teenage love. I esp appreciated the development of the relationship and how Sun slowly came to like the boy as time passed. If not for the terrible pacing where their relationship suddenly spiked, the story of their slow blooming relation was so beautiful. Also Kao and Pete's story was awesome to me. I liked the rivalry of Pete and Non, and how they were as couple, and how they were having disagreements but still found time for bit of naughtiness and romance. Yet again if not for the horrible pacing and Pete's zero to no growth over the series, the story would not have felt so rushed and Pete such an immature, irresponsible, suspicious bastard!!

Well here you have it. I loved the series but it has flaws. Its not perfect but it is definitely worth a try. I recommend anyone who wishes to watch it...to please check out Kiss me again before watching it. Thank you!!
