I am glad I read the reviews before watching. I really didn't expect much going into it, and wasn't disappointed.
Bad - The story or plot leaves much to be desired, yes there were questions left unanswered, and the "trauma" between Hia Yi and Khondiao was not what I would call enough to be an issue. Things were left for far too long, and it really could have been scripted much better.

Chemistry - The chemistry between Kuea and Hia Lian was very good, believable, but the story line kind of messed with it, imo. When they were on though, it was HOT! Same with Hia Yi and Diao. Great chemistry once they went for it, but story line was just off. Syn & Nuer were the best! Both were so cute and funny and sweet.

Good - The side stories and friendships were extremely funny and really good. Kuea's friends at school were hysterical, they made the show so much more watchable. I loved how they just went along with Syn's prayers and helped Kuea keep up appearances with Hia Lian by dressing like computer nerds! Also, the "Jelly Gang" was very cute. Kuea and Diao supported each other so well.
My most favorite character was the scene-stealing Foei. He was THE BEST! Every scene he was in was perfect, I really wish he had more screen time.

Music - I must say the music, for me, was amazing. NuNew has a beautiful voice, as does Nat. Their songs were so good I keep looking NN up on youtube for more.

Overall, not as bad as I thought it would be after reading the reviews, but could have been so much better.
