The criticism that demanded the work prompted the Kuwaiti artist Hamad Ashkanani, one of the heroes of the series, to comment on it, expressing on the “Sky News Arabia” website his happiness at the amount of interaction with the work, considering that one of the most important elements of art is making an impact on society in general, which was achieved by showing the first episode of the series. the job.
Ashkanani denied the series’ accusation of insulting Kuwaiti society, stressing that the work addresses the conscience of Arab societies in various countries.
The Kuwaiti artist expressed his understanding of the negative reactions to the series, given that it discussed matters considered bold, such as the issue of “pedophilia,” excessive love of money, marriage, domestic violence, issues of educational institutions, and the problems of students and their parents.

According to Al-Bahar, the creators of the work wanted, through this work, to achieve fame and “trend” at the expense of the content, and they created a series that did not express the reality of Gulf society in any way, which led to it being denounced by the Kuwaiti and Arab streets, both officially and popularly.
