Will they stick the landing?

I never give 10/10 and I won't here either but there's never been a show that has come so close in my mind.

The 9.5/10 are simply because I wish they would have addressed what Wai did and some audio issues I noticed throughout the show that surely could have been avoided.

Ironically, the weakest thing about this show (and that is "weak" with a hefty bit of sarcasm because this show has no weak points) is probably the storyline and that's just because it doesn't have any crazy twists and turns or reinventions of a popular trope. However, the story is still done fantastically: it takes the old Romeo & Juliette narrative and turns it realistic and earily understandable. Pat and Pran start out as rivals (but not really), turn into reluctant co-conspirators and friends before, inevidably, their true feelings for each other spill out. Brilliantly, the audience gets to understand very early on that, really, Pran has been infatuated with Pat for years, maybe even decades, and so the jumpstart of their relationship only happens after Pat - oblivious in the fact of clear signs - realized in episode 5 that he has madly fallen in love with Pran as well. Continuing their bickering rivalry into their courting process, watching them shamelessly flirt and tease is an absolute delight and when the next heartfelt turn of their relationship happens and they finally become boyfriends, it happens in a wonderful, peaceful way without anyone getting hurt. The fact that their relationship grows stronger and stronger and is the main focus of the show, never detracts from the tension, it is never boring to watch them flirt and bicker and fall deeper and deeper in love. In fact, it's an absolutely incredible watch, which Ohm's and Nanon's acting has to be tributed and lauded for.
Storywise it feels as if their first really conflict in episode 5, which gets resolves in two episodes, and their conflict in episode 7, which also gets resolved in two episode, are precursors to the biggest issues these character's will face - which, like a final boss, lurking in the shadows, being teased since the beginning, is their parents.
The story is simple, yet a combination of great writing, great directing, great acting and trust in not just the actor's history with each other but also their chemistry, really paid off with this show.
Now the only thing it needs is to stick the landing and present the audience with a satisfying ending.
