It is official now. These amateur Filipino 'made by me fo ray friends' kind of BL series are some of the worst out there. Horrible and atrocious acting, terrible actors and dialogues, some of the worst sound systems, a story that has nothing to speak of. The list goes and on and this title certainly adds to the list of some of the most torturous shows I have seen, that want you to think that they have philosophy personified and are here to change your life, but in reality, the words will fall short to explain anyone how bad the show really is. I can't even tell you what an ordeal it was to sit through this 7 episode show, despite each episode being only 15 minutes.
A desperate boy is about to commit suicide, calls a number he finds on the railing of a bridge he's going to jump down from, and the boy who answers persuades him to stay alive. 6 months later, there are now a few groups of friends out there in a resort for holiday during covid. The boy who was about the committee suicide Roy, lives there and runs the place. The savior Kyle is now here with his friends. But they don't know each other. They meet by accident and each time, they get into an argument. It's only later, they become friends and almost lovers/guardian angels for one another. Within one day they become friends/boyfriends for each other.
The script is bad. It's so full of extraneous nonsense that it makes this hard to endure and almost submerges the theme of the story. The acting, as mentioned above, is so so bad. The two leads are still decent with their average looks, but the supporting cast, which is like 20 more members are outrightly bad and ridiculous and over the top. The forced trans humor just doesn't work and feels homophobic instead. As a plot, how many times are we going to watch one boy fall over other, almost about to kiss and then someone interrupts them. Enemies-to-lovers will always work as a plot device. But from visceral hatred to best friends in an instant is not credible. The sound and camerawork is terrible. Even scenes that were lit by natural light were botched. I have absolutely no idea why such a show will ever be made even if its just your friends who are ever going to watch. Sure, people came up with all kind of creative ideas to keep themselves busy and be creative during covid time but this is no excuse for any of that. This particular series is nothing but embarrassment (both for makers and anyone, like me, who had the misfortune to watch this). (0.5/10)
