Almost unbearable to watch

I have watched all the u-prince series and this is by far the worst one. I must say I was extremely surprised to see how high the avg rating on this drama is.

While, yes, the drama has some cute and fluffy scenes, the romance itself felt more like puppy love than anything. You can not convince me these two did not get bored of each other and break up like a month after the show ended.

The characters were both extremely childish and acted like they were in middle school. The female lead, except for being immature, is also not a very good person and I liked how the drama didn’t try to paint her behavior as normal. Because the leads are so childish there were quite a few cringe scenes but that’s not what made it unbearable to watch.

The acting is meh at best and the chemistry between the leads is practically non existent.

Story: the story-line is quite nice. it was arrange nicely. it was funny, cute and sweet at the same time. the story was explain nicely that u can understand everything that happen in the series. and i think 4 ep is enough though. seriously recommend to those who are bored right now. go and watch it !

Acting/Cast: the acting is good,.. the guy are very flirty. the girl are damn flirty and funny. it was so annoyingly cute and cringe watching both main lead. the villain girl will make u feel annoying, but not like any other typical series where the villain girl suddenly hold a gun to kill main female lead. the villain here is more like typical jealous young adult girl.

Music: the ost ? not really remember,, haha

Rewatch: i`ll rewatch it when i want to find something that is annoyingly cute.. cute and annoying, hahaha.

UPrince The Series: The Absolute Economist (Thailand) (2016) - surprisingly I find this entertaining to watch, maybe because my expectations is already low given the previous UPRINCE series I have watched.

At first I really didn't like the female lead's role, she really just have a huge crush unto the male lead but as it goes on she grew on me. The actress just acted the role/character and I find her cute at the end of the series. Well, most likely the male lead is handsome but the acting is not it. Another factor that make me like the drama is the second couple alongside the main lead, though they are not the center of the drama, I like that it had little portions of their love story, cute.

I didn’t like the main heroine much but bonus points to the drama that it didn’t try to sell her behavior as normal, that it - and Teddy - acknowledged that she was a nut and immature to boot. So yeah, good.

But besides that, this drama was an interesting take on fan service. Teddy and Pascal were best friends and they were extremely popular at the university, so much so that their fan club started shipping them and they played into that with various fan-service-y things, up to and including kissing. Their popularity really helped them with their projects etc. But then their fan club started taking it too far...

Interesting is that several years later, New Thitipoom who played Pascal fell victim to the same thing, to fans taking fan service way too far, and they made his life a living hell. They insisted that, when he announced he had a girlfriend, he was cheating on Tay and destroying the TayNew ship and they cyber bullied him so badly that he actually deleted all his social media for a while and though he still remains friends with Tay - luckily, those jerks didn’t manage to destroy that - he now keeps a noticeable distance at any official outing. It was really a case of life imitating art. Unfortunately.

Overall, this drama was worth watching for Teddy and Pascal. Their friendship gave me warm fuzzies. They had so much obvious love for each other. Though I wish we were told why Pascal was actually living with Teddy in his villa...
