Could be better

Realism and Representation: this is pretty good. There are no caricatures, stereotypes, heteronormativity or demonization of women. One of the main characters is a very flamboyant gay man but he is neither a caricature or a stereotype because he has depth. A lot of the story is set within a gay sauna so there are a variety of gay men, although most are extras. One of the love interests, Paul, can be considered to be pansexual.

Story: This is a hilarious and feel-good series. There is potential for the story to go further, especially regarding the endings. More interaction between the love interests and the main characters in their correct bodies would be nice because right now it feels incomplete. I want to see more gay intimacy. There are 2 endings, which is kind of gimmicky. The only major difference is whether Xiao Chi accepts or rejects his "girlfriend." Obviously the one where he rejects her is more logical, thus is my preferred ending. I'd like to see him actually get together with the art dealer. It takes only 30 seconds, why not include it? As for the other ending, if he accepts to date the girl, all the build up and tension between him and the art-dealer, and Hua Hua asking if he likes boys would be for nothing. He has zero chemistry with her and is obviously uncomfortable with her clinginess. So, for me, to include the other ending is unnecessary. Why not go all out different if you're going to do it?

Acting: there isn't enough range of emotions to showchase the actors' skills but for its purposes, everyone gave a solid performance.
