I was more invested in some characters/ stories than others and that's unfortunate
I sat down and watched this all in one go in a space of three days (I kid you not and I am shocked at this myself). And while some stories were far better than what I expected, some just did not gel well with me.
Story-7/10
I am going to separate my marks into four parts adding up all the ratings, as it was four different stories that were being told.
Story 1-7/10
This was my 2nd fave story out of the four. The MC, Pan and Nott, are being played by Seng and Billy, who I remember from the series 'Secret Crush on You' that I watched last year. This story is actually quite believable to me in the BL industry because we, the fans, have heard and seen so much weird things that this storyline is so believable to me. While I did not understand/ like the ending, the story was still more entertaining to two out of the four stories.
Story 2- 6.5/10
Gonna be honest with you guys. I got so confused with who was using who in this story. And maybe that's why I personally didn't like it. And what I didn't get is with the managers. Like, they didn't want Gus and Bew together, because oh how they were selling their image to the public. Yet, Peak and Kla, their next clients are able to date each other. But then again, they took them because of how they were a ship in their university, so I guess that it would be different for them.
Story 3-8.5/10
This was my fave out of all four. Why? Because I was able to follow it so closely and understand it. I understand why Peak did what he did. And at the ending, he actually showed that he was guilty and stated his flaws. And when he didn't win- I actually believe that this could happen as the company choose who they wanted to do the series for them. I think that the reason why this one is my fave is due to the fact that the MC, Peak and Kla, were the only MC that actually got their happy ending.
Story 4-4.5/10
Ugh! I just didn't like this one at all. Could be the fact that I just didn't like Achi from the get-go in the third story. And his character just didn't improve in his own story. Also, we get some kind of history of Achi from his past school days, but I wanted to know more about his family life. Like, why didn't his parents come to the Y Idol series like how all the other contestants' parents did? I really felt the pain for Most, because I honestly thought that they would have been together. The only highlight for this story for me, was the fact that Earth and Korn became a couple. That was the only good thing for me. We also got to see more of P Atichon, who most of the boys looked up to in all of the stories. While he was always being portrayed as a caring senior actor, in this story we get to see another side of him- but it's not very detail. And I guess that's why I really didn't connect with this story.
Due to all of the marks adding up will give me 6.625. So, I will give the story a generous 7/10.
Acting/ Cast-8/10
I actually did enjoy the acting of the casts. I felt that they were able to portray the characters well. And for that I will give them an 8/10.
Music-7/10
Even though I have just finished this series, I had to go back to listen to the OST's as they really did not leave an impression on me, but it did sound catchy. As such, I will give the music a 7/10.
Rewatch Valu-5/10
As I have stated, I really like two out of the four stories (story one and three). Due to this, there is a 50/50 chance that I will rewatch this series, especially just those two stories. Due to this, I give a 5/10.
Overall-7/10
Overall, I give this series a 7/10. While I did enjoy it, it had some flaws that just wasn't properly explained and executed in the series and that I am just unable to overlook. It is most definitely sad if what I watch do happen in the BL industry to these actors who just want to live their dreams.
