second: the main characters. their characters were so well-written with so much depth and emotions. it was like watching (and rooting for) two people find their happiness despite their struggles. it felt very reminiscent to real-life high school experiences. pic.twitter.com/NaqszonB0G

Love For Love's Sake (2024) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Looks like a high school love story, and it is, but it also very much isn't. Surprised me. The finale made me ugly cry. You're gradually given info over the series & the culmination does pay off. Life is about love and finding your happiness. pic.twitter.com/dhs0O5vINN
