When I say god-tier shows, this is what I have in mind! (A 10/10 score is an understatement!)
I have started watching (Thai-produced) BL series just this year and I have quite a lot of watched shows under my belt. Some of them are very promising and engaging, others are just piles of cliche put together to create a series that is an obvious fan-service. Then this series came. I wasn't expecting how big this will come out until watched its trailer just recently. TBH, at first, I was just here because I couldn't get enough of Billkin and PP's couple from My Ambulance. Honestly, I was just here because I am a big Billkin fan but that changed astronomically.
After watching episode 1, I was really speechless and dumbfounded. Saying that it was beautiful was an understatement. It was more than beautiful. Everything was perfect! Everything was ethereal!
Although the plot is quite simple but dang! it's the reality. It's the story of every broken friendship whose ties were severed by pride, silence, and time. This is quite relatable because everybody went through this. What I love about this show is that, although the plot is simple they still managed to make it very interesting and lovable through the perfect execution of everything. The scenes were perfectly shot, the views were selected fittingly, the photography was very good, the colorist did an excellent job in selecting the perfect hues and temperature so that the scenes will effortlessly invoke "feelings" in viewers, Billkin and PP's acting improved so much since My Ambulance, the conflict in the show was perfectly stitched together without adding too much unnecessary dramas and finally, the musical scoring; the musical scoring was ON-POINT!!!! They really did a good job in choosing where to put certain parts of a song so that it could effectively be understood and felt by the viewers. I just couldn't get enough of the soundtracks, both the original and the Mandarin version! (I am not Thai, I don't speak Thai, I am a Filipino but boy, did I regurgitated in memorizing Skyline.) It's very beautiful and deeply poetic. Whenever I listen to it, the song gives me that certain sad sensation and satisfying nostalgia; that although the song conveys a sad message, there is something to it that makes you wanna listen over and over again.
Nadao really outdid themselves this time and I hope, in the advent of I Told Sunset About You, producers will also notch up their productions. Now that many people are mentioning it, I hope they will give us contents that don't involve engineering students, tutors, university set-up, and the likes. Give us more of those content that touches the reality of today, not just lovey-dovey fan-service shows which is an obvious mule to promote products.
It may be very obvious that this show radiates sadness but I really really hope that this would give us a happy Billkin and PP ending since their love story in My Ambulance ended up before it even began. But for what it's worth, I will see this series through 'till the end no matter what end they may give us.
PS: I wasn't able to watch this from their official streaming sites. Unfortunately, I got my copy from those bootleg websites because a 12USD rent per episode is just so depressing to the pocket. If you have the cash to watch it from Vimeo, then do so.
