TW: mentions of r*pe, s*xual assault
When I first heard of this series it was already well into episode 6, so I joined a bit late but I definitely found myself excited for every new episode. Instead of giving a full review, I'll just give some highlights to explain the rating.
Things I did NOT like:
- My biggest issue with this series was that many times it felt like I was watching two completely different dramas. The story between Zon & Saifah and Fighter & tutor was so opposite at times, it was difficult to see how they correlated. This was especially true for episodes in the latter half of the series when we were getting character development.
- I love a good love scene but sometimes it felt forced.
- The "r*pe" scene ( I know they didn't actually do anything and fight stopped but-) I felt this scene was unnecessary and I low-key hate that GMM keeps doing this. This is NEVER okay and I really did not like that they added this just for drama. They could have had a heartfelt dramatic breakup/I-want-you-back scene without this. (sorry, I'm just really frustrated at these types of things)
-The little development with the side relationships. If you're gonna have 'em: go big or go home.
Things I did like:
- Saint and Zee. Their chemistry through this whole show was fantastic. When I was first introduced to this show it was though a video about Zon and Saifah, so for the beginning of the show I was mostly interested in those two but, Tutor and fighter have such a great relationship going that I could equally enjoy both relationships. (I'm not saying that I was watching for one relationship over another, both relationships and the overall story kept me watching.) I could go on and on about saint and zee killing each episode but y'all already know.
- ZEE. wow. I know he didn't have that much experience beforehand but dang you could never tell. He had multiple amazing acting moments but he killed it in episode 12. Him crying- it felt so real.
- I continually found myself looking forward to Friday's because I was so interested in what would happen in each relationship. The actual plot was lacking.
- There were so many just good looking scenes. For example the candlelit dinner on the beach that tor and fight had. A bit unrealistic but absolutely gorgeous.
- showing the struggle of coming out and being out in general + showing the struggle of having a controlling/unsupportive family.
Overall, This series was fun and had good relationships that kept people watching. I understand that they ran into many issues at the end due to the pandemic and I'm happy that they were able to finish strong for the fans. I gave it an 8/10. I would recommend to others.
