How can be this good with that lack of resources due to quarantine? They both deserve big recognition, because they act so good and have a very good chemistry!
I can see a lot of comments here venting out their frustrations over the unstable schedule of this series. Guys, they're filming this whole thing in their homes (remember quarantine?) and the actors are working remotely (remember quarantine?). And the crew doesn't wanna give us some sloppy mess of a show so they're working their asses out to give us quality content. I suggest you take some time reading some articles about this series, I promise you, it will give you peace of mind and a fuel for your patience. It's worth the shot. 👍👍👍
I find Filipino shows soo relatable cuz as Indians we speak in a mixture of our language with English exactly like that and I love how this is peak bilingual culture
I came here once again (for the nth time lol) because i saw one comment on one video that says Cai actually lost on purpose in this game. He did it because lowkey, he is starting to like the attention Gav is giving him. It’s a fan threory but hey, it’s really logical if you think about it. Usually, Cai gets very upset whenever he can’t win in his games but here, you can see he was dancing and swaying his hips like he’s happy he lost the game. Hahaha oh my, the details. ❤️
The way they played with our feelings. Now I kinda understand Cai more. He never had anyone aside from his Dad (coz I feel like he doesnt have the best relationship with his siblings and Mom). Now, he found this guy, Gav, who's willing to be beside him regardless of the circumstance. It's not hard to fall for a person who puts effort into the little things. The way they opened up to each other while they were having their date was cute but has a lot of substance. I hope we can see Gav's development in the next few episodes. The way they inserted the OST plus the montage of them literally just falling for each other was done beautifully. Kudos to the team. I am amazed with how superb the quality of the series is considering the current situation. This shows that a series can still be good without having too much of anything just pure and raw talent backed with an amazing script and a solid direction. Can't wait for the next episode.
I totally agreee! I also was a bit doubting about how they will show their chemistry despite the settings of the series yet they do it so flawlessly ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Agree. This show is all talent. Kokoy shines as Gav and Elijah is doing a decent job as Cai. The director is a superb talented person to be able to DIRECT all of these from afar. The production team is AMAZING. This is a great show! I can't get over how good this is!
6:38 The look on Cai’s face when he hears “you seem sad all the time” 🥺 We all need a friend like Gav who notices the little things and isn’t afraid to ask if we’re okay ❤️
Gav : "I have dibs on you. You can't escape me" Cai : "I am this close to strangling you" Gav : "Yes Choke me daddy" Cai : "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH" Me : *DEAD* Rip my soul!!!! This Angel of Peace is too good to be true!!!!!!
Watching previous episodes proved how Gav have been Cairo’s guy in his most vulnerable times. I also admire Elijah for being a great actor. He was able to portray well a gay boy that is confused about his feelings, his conflict with the family and his hesitation to trust someone.
Elijah's many facial expressions where he changes in a few seconds - surprise, awe, emotional, angsty show his mastery of acting. And an eye actor is hard to find these days. Kokoy is also a natural, you can tell his enormous experience in acting. It's not a matter of playing supporting/bit parts, it's how you own the character. I'm watching for the 5th time. LOL
Someone said it finally. It bothers me that there are people who thinks Elijah's acting here is subpar. Like for real? Can't they see those subtle movements of his face that shows total change of emotions in one click? Sometimes he doesn't even need to move a muscle, his eyes could act by themselves. Makes me think some viewers dont really understand the complexity of playing Cairo.
@@CalleighDelaCruz At this point in time, my advise is never bother yourself with comments that seem to belittle acting techniques, because basically they don't dwell much on the intricacies, but rather are satisfied with what is obvious. Subtle acting is the hardest to do because it takes confidence to do it. An actor who lacks confidence always does over-the-top acting because he wants to rise above the noise, but in effect, he gets drowned by it.
Calleigh Dela Cruz agree! I love Elijah’s expressions. Though part of it is in the filming process. More emotions could be captured if the director and camera men were on set.
The Filipino fans would like to thank international fans like you for appreciating this BL series. To be honest, this is my first time to watch a BL series made from my own country and I really enjoyed this. Hoping you enjoy this as well. 😊
Within a couple of days, I discovered Gameboys - and Hello, Stranger - and the Philippines. All 100% new to me. Imaginative. Clever. Original. Real and contemporary. Utterly rooted in young people's reality - right now. Super well-written dialogue. I know so little about the Philippines - the other side of the world: every glimpse I get here is fascinating. Ditto listening to Tagalog conversation. And two completely charming young actors.
Bc of Covid I’ve been branching to other countries BL bc I was used to watching BL’s from Thailand, Japan, China, and Korea. The language change felt a bit weird but I got used to it after the first or second episode. I’ve been into BL’s from Vietnam and the Philippines 🥰🥰🥰
I also recommend #GayaSaPelikula (Just Like in the Movies) which is also Filipino. The chemistry between the leads is amazing, and the script is very good! P.S. I'm Filipino myself but I also just recently discovered these series, like this weekend LOL.
@@jeeannguibone1678 seriously, i loved gaya sa pelikula. Like that's such a great show and it actually showcases real life situations and stuffs. And the script is just so damn great. I literally cried so many times watching that show. I could actually feel those emotions
*sees the girl and pauses the show*....it's ok that's probably his sister or the flatmate she seems nice it's fine give her the benefit of the doubt....."babe!".......*chucks phone across the room* honestly this series already has me hooked faster then any other BL yet.....amazing job guys!
@@Rhythym_Jay honestly that would be fantastic cause we could use another Yihwa she rocked! If Gav is playing I'm sorry stud you're dimples won't save ya this time.
*THIS SERIES DESERVES THE SPOTLIGHT AND MORE RECOGNITION, PERIODT.* SPREAD AND PROMOTE THIS TO UR FRIENDS GUYS! eto na ang simula ng bl series sa pinas❤️
That part where Gav types in multiple possible comments but ends up not sending one is a MOOD. This is how the modern dating world has made us cautious of every word we say, and every move we make.
Gabriel's dimples are the world! This show is so new to me. I heard on some other, recommendation video about this and I didn't know if I should give it a chance, but now, after onlu like 20minutes, I am hooked! Great job to everyone in this crew!
The direction, acting, editing, and soud effects are so lit in spite of this pandemic we are currently experiencing. I have never doubted with all people behind this art, it seems talagang pinaghandaan before nila ilabas ito. Can't keep myself from smiling the whole episode, nakakakilig na balanced, mapa drama moments to sitcom parts. Kudos to the whole prod team! Kudos! P.S. I am a guy, but I just can't help myself from gazing to Elijah's eyes. Ako nalang Cairo!
oo, kaya nga cguro natagalan ipalabas ang ep2, kasi nga as much they want to release it on time, eh ciempre isinabay sa napapanahong ecq db, and they wanted it to be more realistic.... yehey!!!!!
Super like from india 🇮🇳 I didn't had any expectations at the start of this series but now this is my second time watching it. I even start liking the word baby even when I used to find it cringey before. Waiting for second season. Lots of love to the two babies and rest of cast 💗
Cairo: Sakalin kita jan eh Gavreel: "Yes! Choke me, daddy!" Me: *literally got choked on my water* OwO They were not even in direct contact but the chemistry is real.. SHIAAAAAAA! Can't wait for the next episode with the "babe" thingy.. So excited for that! Jealous and Panic Gay Cairo is just too cute.. 😍😍
its already extended, from 10minutes, it became 19minutes.... lol.... thanks for watching pinoy bl series.... lets support each other!!!!! terima kasih
This is my first time watching a Philippines BL series. Gotta admit this is sooo adorable, the concept is so refreshing and I like how they've used the current situation to relate the story which makes it more closer to reality. Looking forward to seeing how the story unfolds. Love and support from Sri Lanka 😊❤️🇱🇰
Omg I almost cried about Cairo's story. I'm glad the characters are evolving. They are showing us there's so much more to them than just playing games online. Edit: one, two, three, four, five, sex... This script is so funny.
Rewatching this for the Nth time and still can't believe that people dropped by just watching the first episode. They missed a lot, but we sure don't miss them.
When he said " yes choke me daday" I literally threw my phone I had to even go take a walk to really process what he said😭😭 Edit: thank y'all so much for the likes😂😭😭 I only get this much likes when it has to do with BL🥰 I see y'all do be loving my username name😏😂 guessing y'all wanna be choked too😏😭 I love y'all 😭😘 thank you again for the likes and stay safe🥰
*cairo* : para kang tanga! *gav* : sige sa iba na lang ako magpapabilang. :( *cairo* : pa'no ba 'yang bilang na 'yan? HAHAHAHAHAHHSHSHAH ANG RUPOK RUPOK NI CAIROOOO HAHAHAH I LAVET
A Theory: Cairo intentionally lost their rematch. Did you find it weird that Cairo as a veteran gamer lose for the 2ND time with Gav which is a noob in gaming? He even danced and swayed his hips after the Game, which means he's happy even after losing the game.
I don't think Gav is a noob, maybe he's got experience with playing the game, besides, he seemed pretty confident that he would win, he even made a bet with Cairo.
Gav stated in a later episode (3) that even when he isnt into games he studied (dedicated) how cairo plays and used it against him... and since dark souls was mentioned and about female characters with debuffs etc... i'm guessing the game something akin to having one character that you play unilaterally (diablo 3) so if you dedicate to beating a certain player it's possible to get equipments skills characters etc that counters him even if he is better (unless he is pro)
Im not dragging one down or pulling one up, but this is better than other filipino bls, this is so underrated ;(( Hoping someday ill see one of their episode on the trendings
Yung 19 minutes lang siya pero inabot ka ng almost 30-40 mins kasi puro ka pause at pagpapa kalma sa sarili mo HAHAHAHA 😂💕 Grabe yung chemistry nila! Partida virtual/on screen palang yan, pero nakaka kilig na 🥺💕 I love this series, so timely and relevant. Tapos ang light lang ng feels 🌈
Gavreel is soo confident , and his acting is soo natural , they both are soo goood. Gavreel is flirting with Cairo , but why I am blushing🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈
Man I am so touched by this series. I didn't realize how much I desperately wanted media that reflects the current situation. While escapism is fun, seeing every other show be set in ostensibly the present day but in a completely unrecognizable setting (despite that being our normal of several months ago!) makes me feel sad. Watching those shows feels like looking into an alternate universe where this pandemic hadn't happened, and there's only so much of that you can take before it just gets depressing. The fact that this series is a cute romance set in everyone's new normal is awesome! Cairo and Gavreel's conversation where things got real was my favorite part so far. Let me tell you, LGBT+ teenagers are far more likely to have been in long distance relationships in our young adult lives, whether because we're not out or there is no one else out at our schools, or what have you. Pretty much every gay or bi person my age that I've met (I'm 23) had an internet boyfriend or girlfriend in their teenage years, and a lot of them still do. So, in a way, the gays have been training for building up the digital intimacy that comes with video communication/written communication as our only forms of contact for DECADES lol. And now it's something everyone has to deal with... all the loneliness and sadness and isolation and how just having someone to talk to that cares about you can make all the difference. So this series is like the best combination of those two aspects to me. I am more excited about this show than I have been about a show for a long time! Great job to the actors and the production team!!!!
OMFG this series is EVERYTHING. it really shows you that edge of nowadays' romance. especially during this pandemic. the storyline is very interesting and the connection between the two casts is out of this world. this series managed to be so relevant and so cute at the same time. i say, make the 40 minutes version hehehe... Goodjob guys!!
You know it's a great show with amazing actors when you don't need skinship to feel the intimacy and chemistry. I'm HOOKED. This is my first time watching a BL from the Philippines so I expect many more (:
Hi just want to recommend another bl series titled diving into love the series you can search it on yt but the first episode will be on March 20 , 2021. Let's all watch it.
Just want to share this to you guys, I have a friends pala from Indonesia, Thai and Brazil and they also watch this series, based sa review nila nakaka kilig daw, they also commend how the quality of the video was made super ganda daw plus the scenes and plot is very unique, very timely and relatable. I think this series is a good start para ma's makilala pa yung BL dito sa pinas.
This episode was seriously an emotional rollercoaster for me. Mostly laughing and second-hand embarrassment and in the end sadness. The father's situation hits hard right now. (In particular, for me as part of my family are working in a hospital). Thank you for your hard work!
I felt inlove at the same time sad. When his dad sent him a message saying goodbye, I remember my dad. He passed away this last September1. I just remember how heartbreaking to see a message like that. I was also looking for comfort that time, and message my friends.
The Filipino fans would like to thank international fans like you for spreading this BL series. Tbh this is also my first time to watch a BL series made from our country and I really enjoyed this. Hoping that your friends would like this too. 😊
I'm actually happy to see they made this a chat thing online, it makes a lot of since giving this pandemic. This is kind of different from what I've seen in a show and a bl in general and I love it. This show is the best thing ever, it's funny and cute but relatable and it also mentions that we are on lock down and in some places even have a curfew I'm glad CaiReel are getting to know eachother first When I say I cackled and almost dropped my apple juice at the "choke me daddy" part 😆😂💀 Aww I didn't expect the family thing to happen but I'm glad he has someone to talk to. Three....four....five....sex I mean six 😂😂😂😂😂. Honestly Cairo same just same
That "Choke me, daddy!", "Hawaiian with pizza" "one, two, three, four, five, sex - six!" haha I love them so much! ang gwapo ni Gav kainis, at cute ni Cairo talaga kakagigil.
Omg I can relate so much to this, in the fact that Filipino culture kinda reminds me of my own culture...I'm from Goa, India, we were ruled by the Portuguese for a long time, we have Portuguese/spanish surnames, speak English alot lol, it's so similar
Honestly... I'm blown away by the production quality. Especially considering this all had to be filmed alone, it's fantastic, but even if that wasn't the case it's still some of the best quality I've seen. The sound and film are excellent, but man, all the editing flows so nicely and is so well-put together as well. I love the music and the way it adds to the emotions the characters are experiencing. The acting is fantastic as well. Both actors are very charismatic and doing a very good job of expressing their emotions with simple facial expression. I'd also like to complement the script; it's very creative in a lot of parts, but also just well-written and realistic. Also, the translations are top-notch. It can be hard to get the same point across in a different language, but I think the translator(s) have managed well. I can understand every bit. I won't mind waiting a little bit longer if that means we can have such a high quality show.
Am I the only who's amaze how Elijah Canlas (Cairo) schooled his emotions in his face? He's an expert in using it. The nuances, how it changes in every scene is so damn good. He's a professional, a very effective actor. From now on, I'll support all his films and series including Kokoy de Santos' (Gavreel). Kudos to both of them! You deserve all the praises coming from us! 👏👏👏
Same, tbh. Even with just the way his eyes would suddenly sparkle and then restrain it in one sec, like how easy it is for this kid to change emotions without doing much? I was completely floored. Brilliant indeed!
@@alexanderramirez8997 dito siya mas nag shine very catchy and natural yung way of expression niya wich is very rare sa mga artista, i think I can only give two name who is Ms. Jackelyn San Jose , the way umarte is very natural , alam mo yung kinakausap niya lang mga kaibigan niya and the other one is this guy here named Cairo same kay Ms. Jackelyn pero iba yung style niya I mean mag ka iba yung style nila but still delivered in there natural way ..Alam mo yung hindi pilit Just my opinion..✌

I didn't know that I can agree on a statement as much as I do with this...
Or maybe voyeurs ? 😂
@@ryansanteful oh my gOD SIR I-
Medyo mahaba. Siguro 3rdwheels? Haha
*sees the girl and pauses the show*....it's ok that's probably his sister or the flatmate she seems nice it's fine give her the benefit of the doubt....."babe!".......*chucks phone across the room*
honestly this series already has me hooked faster then any other BL yet.....amazing job guys!
@ᜐᜁ̊ᜇ̵ᜑ᜔ I really really hope for that lol
@@katiepragg8971 I'm desperately praying it's just his cousin or anyone not that special to him cos she's on sight 😒 AKSKSJSLDKDK
i hope they're just like Yihwa and Korn in Together With Me the series... but if Gav is just playing with Cai, then I can't even forgive him.
@@FlashKetchum me too cause my mouth totally dropped for a good 10 seconds before the freak out followed lol
@@Rhythym_Jay honestly that would be fantastic cause we could use another Yihwa she rocked! If Gav is playing I'm sorry stud you're dimples won't save ya this time.
"you'll talk to me through the whole quarantine period" years and years lol
this show is a GIFT. a GIFT during Covid. we so lucky. FRIENDS, WE LUCKY.
Yes. WE ARE LUCKY ! 🤧🤧it's a funny and cute ship 😌❤🤧
LOUDER
WE ARE.
*THIS SERIES DESERVES THE SPOTLIGHT AND MORE RECOGNITION, PERIODT.*
SPREAD AND PROMOTE THIS TO UR FRIENDS GUYS! eto na ang simula ng bl series sa pinas❤️
YES
EXACTLY!
Yes Miss Ma'am
Oh yes
Yesss louderrr
That part where Gav types in multiple possible comments but ends up not sending one is a MOOD. This is how the modern dating world has made us cautious of every word we say, and every move we make.
You're on point! #digitalage
Gabriel's dimples are the world! This show is so new to me. I heard on some other, recommendation video about this and I didn't know if I should give it a chance, but now, after onlu like 20minutes, I am hooked! Great job to everyone in this crew!
Warning!!! You’ll get addicted to this series 🥲
When he said “Sex. I MEAN SIX..” I started smiling like an idiot
I laugh so hard during that scene
I stopped myself from laughing coz everyone's sleeping in my house. But I let out a milli-second high pitched chuckle.
Same af HAHAHAHAHA
I was laughing so hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And then I remember when I was in middle school that’s happened to me 😂😂😂😂😂in front of allll my class mates 🤯
This is straight outta a real life situation. No masala added. This feels so real and relatable.

The direction, acting, editing, and soud effects are so lit in spite of this pandemic we are currently experiencing. I have never doubted with all people behind this art, it seems talagang pinaghandaan before nila ilabas ito. Can't keep myself from smiling the whole episode, nakakakilig na balanced, mapa drama moments to sitcom parts. Kudos to the whole prod team! Kudos!
P.S. I am a guy, but I just can't help myself from gazing to Elijah's eyes. Ako nalang Cairo!
oo, kaya nga cguro natagalan ipalabas ang ep2, kasi nga as much they want to release it on time, eh ciempre isinabay sa napapanahong ecq db, and they wanted it to be more realistic.... yehey!!!!!
Rightttt? ANG CUTE NI CAI POCHA
Shett bet ko rin si cairo ihh!🤭 ganda kasi eyes niya napakaemotion yung tipong madadala ka...♥️
True
Super like from india 🇮🇳 I didn't had any expectations at the start of this series but now this is my second time watching it. I even start liking the word baby even when I used to find it cringey before. Waiting for second season. Lots of love to the two babies and rest of cast 💗
Cairo: Sakalin kita jan eh
Gavreel: "Yes! Choke me, daddy!"
Me: *literally got choked on my water* OwO
They were not even in direct contact but the chemistry is real.. SHIAAAAAAA! Can't wait for the next episode with the "babe" thingy.. So excited for that! Jealous and Panic Gay Cairo is just too cute.. 😍😍
Cairo: Sakalin kita jan eh..
Gavreel: "Yes! Choke me, Daddy!"

Thank you
Am I only the one who used to read comments while watching this series?
Glad to know that there are a lot of international viewers...
💓💓💓
Hi there.... I read the coment too
This is my first time watching a Philippines BL series. Gotta admit this is sooo adorable, the concept is so refreshing and I like how they've used the current situation to relate the story which makes it more closer to reality. Looking forward to seeing how the story unfolds.
Love and support from Sri Lanka 😊❤️🇱🇰
There is another coming and I guess as exciting the title is MY DAY.
Watch UR_Tadhana
Awww namaste!
The trailer of "hello, stranger" is out now
I'm really impressed. Like it must take good acting skills to talk to camera and show emotions. Hats off❤️
Omg I almost cried about Cairo's story. I'm glad the characters are evolving. They are showing us there's so much more to them than just playing games online.
Edit: one, two, three, four, five, sex... This script is so funny.
The "choke me daddy" got me 😂😭
Can’t stop smiling , giggling with Caí & Gav. They’re such a cutie . We should protect them at all cost 👌
Nakakapunit ng labi kakangiti hahahahahha
I can't believe that they're able to cast actors that are as good looking as these kids. Bravo!!
they're perfect.. kudos to ideafirst for making this happen!
Cai: “I am this close to strangling you”
Gav: “Yes, choke me DADDY!”
ME: 😳😝🤣
the thing is.. they dont have their make up artist in set. theyre in their bare faces 😘 and i love it
Agreeee!!
PERIODT
Trueeee
Making it more realistic 😍
When gav said "i'm your guy"
I'm suffocating.
And tbh I'm freakin' straight. Help me.
Hahahahaha
"choke me daddy" lol
Ayos lang yan :>
Welcome to the club!
OOOOHHH 😹😹👊
The push up scene tho~ it seems like Cai is enjoying it and the way he lay down and stare at him made him feel something else. Lol
i ship boy to boy, why not? I found it hilarious that he went to his back and it looked like Gav was on top. Lol
One, two, three, four, five, SEX🤦♂️😂❤️ Cairo
I don't blame him ..his nips were very distracting 😄😅💜
@@MarkitaD he turned on his back to relieve the pressure of his boner poking his mattress 😆🤣
@@jaguy4u2 lol
Rewatching this for the Nth time and still can't believe that people dropped by just watching the first episode. They missed a lot, but we sure don't miss them.
Sameeeee
Same here rewatching and also seeing people watching for the first time I'm surprised
that was my plan in the beginning. pero nagustuhan ko ng sobra. huhuhu. now i have finished 8 series in less than a week. lol.
Can't tell you how many times I've watched the first episode waiting for the second one to come out 😅
Exactlyy
Same ahahahahhaha
same here
Me i think more than 50+😅😅
I feel like I can play both roles now 😂
Cairo: I'm this close to strangling you!
Gavreel: "Yes! Choke me, daddy!"
Me: *choking on air* O__O
U need a church 😂
Yes!..love the the interaction 😄🤣😆
My reaction, "oh my 😍😍"
When he said that I was... Arrrrggghhh... What is happening!
Hahahahaha 😂😂😂
When he said " yes choke me daday" I literally threw my phone I had to even go take a walk to really process what he said😭😭
Edit: thank y'all so much for the likes😂😭😭 I only get this much likes when it has to do with BL🥰 I see y'all do be loving my username name😏😂 guessing y'all wanna be choked too😏😭 I love y'all 😭😘 thank you again for the likes and stay safe🥰

*gav* : sige sa iba na lang ako magpapabilang. :(
*cairo* : pa'no ba 'yang bilang na 'yan?
HAHAHAHAHAHHSHSHAH ANG RUPOK RUPOK NI CAIROOOO HAHAHAH I LAVET
A Theory: Cairo intentionally lost their rematch.
Did you find it weird that Cairo as a veteran gamer lose for the 2ND time with Gav which is a noob in gaming? He even danced and swayed his hips after the Game, which means he's happy even after losing the game.
Yeah looks like.
I don't think Gav is a noob, maybe he's got experience with playing the game, besides, he seemed pretty confident that he would win, he even made a bet with Cairo.
Wow I just noticed that! Cairo just likes playing hard to get
I would gladly lose to gav
Gav stated in a later episode (3) that even when he isnt into games he studied (dedicated) how cairo plays and used it against him... and since dark souls was mentioned and about female characters with debuffs etc... i'm guessing the game something akin to having one character that you play unilaterally (diablo 3) so if you dedicate to beating a certain player it's possible to get equipments skills characters etc that counters him even if he is better (unless he is pro)
Im not dragging one down or pulling one up, but this is better than other filipino bls, this is so underrated ;(( Hoping someday ill see one of their episode on the trendings
Yes, tama
i understand your point, pero lets give time naman sa Sakristan, beke nemen, HAHA
ang chaka ng actors sa sakristan char HAHAHAHHAH
@@corrine1310 slight, lol HAHAHAHA
Same thoughts
This actors are just so great, even though they have limited resources and don't have any skinship at all they still slayed and made the audience hook
Well this is Philippine Media Revolution. I hope the rainbow flag will be represented rightfully
charrr
❤
I hope so
Yung 19 minutes lang siya pero inabot ka ng almost 30-40 mins kasi puro ka pause at pagpapa kalma sa sarili mo HAHAHAHA 😂💕
Grabe yung chemistry nila! Partida virtual/on screen palang yan, pero nakaka kilig na 🥺💕
I love this series, so timely and relevant.
Tapos ang light lang ng feels 🌈
Cairo's smile is so cute. Who came up with this? This is genius 😁❤
Gavreel is soo confident , and his acting is soo natural , they both are soo goood.
Gavreel is flirting with Cairo , but why I am blushing🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈
It felt boring but the guy us so cute, he makes me smile a lot, he keeps me going
The fandom name should be called "The Thirdwheels" 😂😂😂
Yaaaasssss! Hahahahaua
Why?
😂
@@camillemegano5275 cause we 3rd wheeling in every single ep (watching them flirt and stuff)😂
Count me in!
Man I am so touched by this series. I didn't realize how much I desperately wanted media that reflects the current situation. While escapism is fun, seeing every other show be set in ostensibly the present day but in a completely unrecognizable setting (despite that being our normal of several months ago!) makes me feel sad. Watching those shows feels like looking into an alternate universe where this pandemic hadn't happened, and there's only so much of that you can take before it just gets depressing. The fact that this series is a cute romance set in everyone's new normal is awesome!
Cairo and Gavreel's conversation where things got real was my favorite part so far. Let me tell you, LGBT+ teenagers are far more likely to have been in long distance relationships in our young adult lives, whether because we're not out or there is no one else out at our schools, or what have you. Pretty much every gay or bi person my age that I've met (I'm 23) had an internet boyfriend or girlfriend in their teenage years, and a lot of them still do. So, in a way, the gays have been training for building up the digital intimacy that comes with video communication/written communication as our only forms of contact for DECADES lol. And now it's something everyone has to deal with... all the loneliness and sadness and isolation and how just having someone to talk to that cares about you can make all the difference. So this series is like the best combination of those two aspects to me.
I am more excited about this show than I have been about a show for a long time! Great job to the actors and the production team!!!!
Yehh❤️
Hi astro ho. Your post was eye-opening and appreciated. Thanks for sharing. --JDT
Well said!
OMFG this series is EVERYTHING. it really shows you that edge of nowadays' romance. especially during this pandemic. the storyline is very interesting and the connection between the two casts is out of this world. this series managed to be so relevant and so cute at the same time. i say, make the 40 minutes version hehehe... Goodjob guys!!
You know it's a great show with amazing actors when you don't need skinship to feel the intimacy and chemistry. I'm HOOKED. This is my first time watching a BL from the Philippines so I expect many more (:
Hi just want to recommend another bl series titled diving into love the series you can search it on yt but the first episode will be on March 20 , 2021. Let's all watch it.
Just want to share this to you guys, I have a friends pala from Indonesia, Thai and Brazil and they also watch this series, based sa review nila nakaka kilig daw, they also commend how the quality of the video was made super ganda daw plus the scenes and plot is very unique, very timely and relatable.
I think this series is a good start para ma's makilala pa yung BL dito sa pinas.
❤❤
😊❤❤❤😍😍💯💯
uyy nice nice
Just when you thought quarantine was gonna ruin all good BL this masterpiece comes out of nowhere.
This episode was seriously an emotional rollercoaster for me. Mostly laughing and second-hand embarrassment and in the end sadness. The father's situation hits hard right now. (In particular, for me as part of my family are working in a hospital).
Thank you for your hard work!
Had the exact emotions too and I don't know what to feel
I felt inlove at the same time sad. When his dad sent him a message saying goodbye, I remember my dad. He passed away this last September1. I just remember how heartbreaking to see a message like that. I was also looking for comfort that time, and message my friends.
Yakap and stay strong 🙏☝️🧸💐💐
Sending love 💘
Sending big hugs🙇🏻♀️
This show is really great!! I'll to recommend to my friends. Love from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
True, this is a gem we should not hide 😍
The Filipino fans would like to thank international fans like you for spreading this BL series. Tbh this is also my first time to watch a BL series made from our country and I really enjoyed this. Hoping that your friends would like this too. 😊
How do you guys understand it🤷🏻♂️
Obrigadooo

Amazing
When he said about his dad, my heart broke.....yeah this is a really really good show
I’m so invested in this series now.
You know a series is good when you’re slapped with a “DIRECTED BY-“ and you wanna watch more!

I'm actually happy to see they made this a chat thing online, it makes a lot of since giving this pandemic.
This is kind of different from what I've seen in a show and a bl in general and I love it.
This show is the best thing ever, it's funny and cute but relatable and it also mentions that we are on lock down and in some places even have a curfew
I'm glad CaiReel are getting to know eachother first
When I say I cackled and almost dropped my apple juice at the "choke me daddy" part 😆😂💀
Aww I didn't expect the family thing to happen but I'm glad he has someone to talk to.
Three....four....five....sex
I mean six 😂😂😂😂😂.
Honestly Cairo same just same
That "Choke me, daddy!", "Hawaiian with pizza" "one, two, three, four, five, sex - six!" haha I love them so much! ang gwapo ni Gav kainis, at cute ni Cairo talaga kakagigil.
Omg I can relate so much to this, in the fact that Filipino culture kinda reminds me of my own culture...I'm from Goa, India, we were ruled by the Portuguese for a long time, we have Portuguese/spanish surnames, speak English alot lol, it's so similar
oh..this is interesting.. :)
ahh, this is something to learn about, lets research
wow, your place is beautiful with beaches and churches

@@reydeanlasru5917 Portuguese
Honestly... I'm blown away by the production quality. Especially considering this all had to be filmed alone, it's fantastic, but even if that wasn't the case it's still some of the best quality I've seen. The sound and film are excellent, but man, all the editing flows so nicely and is so well-put together as well. I love the music and the way it adds to the emotions the characters are experiencing.
The acting is fantastic as well. Both actors are very charismatic and doing a very good job of expressing their emotions with simple facial expression. I'd also like to complement the script; it's very creative in a lot of parts, but also just well-written and realistic.
Also, the translations are top-notch. It can be hard to get the same point across in a different language, but I think the translator(s) have managed well. I can understand every bit.
I won't mind waiting a little bit longer if that means we can have such a high quality show.
Am I the only who's amaze how Elijah Canlas (Cairo) schooled his emotions in his face? He's an expert in using it. The nuances, how it changes in every scene is so damn good. He's a professional, a very effective actor. From now on, I'll support all his films and series including Kokoy de Santos' (Gavreel). Kudos to both of them! You deserve all the praises coming from us! 👏👏👏
Locksmith he wasn't called "Brilliant" by Harry Potter's director for nothing tho.
Same, tbh. Even with just the way his eyes would suddenly sparkle and then restrain it in one sec, like how easy it is for this kid to change emotions without doing much? I was completely floored. Brilliant indeed!
You should watch Kalel 15, Edward, LSS movies. Also the iWant series PastPresentPerfect. Kilig sila ni Eloisa dun.
@@alexanderramirez8997 dito siya mas nag shine very catchy and natural yung way of expression niya wich is very rare sa mga artista, i think I can only give two name who is Ms. Jackelyn San Jose , the way umarte is very natural , alam mo yung kinakausap niya lang mga kaibigan niya and the other one is this guy here named Cairo same kay Ms. Jackelyn pero iba yung style niya I mean mag ka iba yung style nila but still delivered in there natural way ..Alam mo yung hindi pilit
Just my opinion..✌
