SOOOOOOO Underrated
StoryAll of their stories are great!!! They made me frustrated, mad, sad, and happy. My personal favorite has to be JC and Claudia.
Acting/Cast
Of course the only thing that caught my eye on this drama was the fact that Max and Tul were in it. Though very different than what I thought. All of the girls did great and the actor for JC was amazing!!!
Music
The music always set the mood just right and was great. I loved it so much. Though I can't find a lot of the songs :(.
Overall
Please watch. It is unfortunately a Netflix original so you have to have Netflix but please watch if you have it you won't regret.

Too many generic Thai drama tropes at once
If there was 1 expectation of mine that was met in this show, it’s the basic minimum of expecting stories of several people’s lives that are very different from each other.Other than that, I absolutely disliked the characters, pacing, romance, and plot twists of this show. utterly ridiculous and anything but fun. Don’t get me started on me expecting all couples to be straight couples and yet they managed to plaster some unnecessarily deep caves level of gayness like everyone can keep up with all those pronoun changes per person. On another note, every Thai drama has a trans woman now and this one also has this generic character type but x2.
Aside from that, if you dislike the separate stories interacting with one another very easily then this show isn’t for you. The 3 stories all intersect for some reason even though the show would have been greater if it created small interactions between them only.
Personally, I dropped it. Many other stories do this drama archetype better.

I rate the edited version on the BL line
A series that should definitely not be missed by those who choose only the cream of the crop from Thailand ... I rate the edited version on the BL line, the main characters share a single story, which is very important and it also affected my rating. And it doesn't matter at all that the individual parts are very large and that the other 4 main hetero characters Claudia, Eve, Danny and JC are practically invisible (they are seen in the final part around 25 minutes).In addition to MAX, whom everyone probably knows as a super nice guy, another symposia TEN totally got me as an actor and he played it so well that I believed in him absolutely everything, every hair, it came out from inside him like a water fountain (I mean, he plays such a character and that she's loved Keaton since she was a child - actually even Win back then).
Other characters also appealed to me as actors: Dr. Krit (38 years old), transwoman Mednoon (32 years old) and Keaton's client and lover - Jennista (44 years old). The fact that he is older than Keaton (Max) by twenty years was not even recognized in many scenes. The music is beautiful, the processing in the details is perfect. In the last 13 episodes, TUL also appears for a jump at the end...
Seriál, který by rozhodně neměl uniknout těm, kteří si vybírají z Thajska jen tu smetánku ... Hodnotím sestříhanou verzi na BL linku, hlavní postavy jedou jednolitý příběh, což je moc důležité a ovlivnilo to i mé hodnocení. A vůbec nevadí, že jednotlivé díly jsou hodně velké a že další 4 hlavní hetero postavy Claudia, Eve, Danny a JC nejsou prakticky vidět (jsou vidět v závěrečném díle kolem 25 minuty).
Kromě MAXE, kterého asi všichni znají jako supersympaťáka, mě herecky naprosto dostal další sympoš TEN a zahrál to tak skvěle, že jsem mu věřil naprosto vše, každý chloupek, vycházelo to z jeho nitra jako vodotrysk (myslím to, že hraje takovouto postavu a že od dětství miluje Keatona - vlastně tehdy ještě Wina).
I další postavy mě oslovily herecky: Dr.Krit (38 let), transka Mednoon (32 let) a klientka a milenka Keatona - Jennista (44 let). To, že je starší od Keatona (Maxe) o dvacet let, nebylo v mnohých scénách ani poznat. Hudba krásná, zpracování v detailech dokonalé. V posledním 13 dílu se na konci objevuje na skok i TUL ...

The trailer made a big deal about the BL in this series but there was close to none focused on the main leads bl love story.
- Keaton + Simon -
It shows two little kids in the locker rooms which just hugged and then it moves on to when they are older loving and being intimate with others and then they apparently just glance at each other and then fall into place all over again after *from what the timings were told to be* like 20 years later...
I wouldn't watch if you are only interested in the BL.
- Danny + Eve -
It was really difficult to understand their story but it did make me want to invest in them ever more, It was clear that Danny was so madly in love with Lin but proceeded to continue with Eve but they are one of my favourite couples on the show.
- All the other cast I didn't really pay much attention too since I wasn't really hyped for their scenes -
I LOVED THAT TUL WAS IN THE ENDING THO REALLY MADE MY DAY!
Sometimes there were moments with awkward vibes when it didn't suit the situation...
The storyline was confusing but it all falls together near the ending on the series.
Many of my favourite actors and some new faces which I definitely want to see more from in the future.

I thought all the storylines were cute, although I felt the most invested in Simon and Keaton's. I loved the cinematography (a Netflix budget goes a long way) and a lot of the darker (optically) scenes. I enjoyed how the music accentuated scenes, but it's not an OST that's all that memorable (writing this review almost a year after watching it I can only remember the opening song). Ten became my instant favorite after watching this show. I have to agree that the plot was thin in a lot of areas and none of the characters (though well acted) felt fully fleshed out. I honestly thoroughly enjoyed the show and have recommended it to people IRL. I enjoyed the dramedy and actually laughed out loud at some parts (and cried at the ending scene because I'm a HUGE sap lol). All in all I say give it a try. You'll know after the first episode if it's for you or not.

Essa série é muito boa. Apesar de tantas histórias misturadas, é possível se envolver em cada uma delas e se apaixonar e torcer por cada personagem. A personagem Claudia, com sua cabeleira apelativa é muito real... é possível sentir a dor dela, a necessidade de ter alguém que a ame e proteja, sua luta diária e a força que ela exala para conseguir esconder suas fraquezas e sua carência. Jennista, tentando preencher o vazio de sua vida comprando um amor que ela sabe que não é dela, Nawin em sua fuga incessante de seu amor por Simon, entre tantas histórias que mostram o lado humano dos personagens, não apenas o lado que gostamos de ver, a beleza e a fofura, mas os erros, o medo, a carência, a solidão. Para mim essa série é uma obra de arte, além de tudo já citado podemos ver vários pontos da cidade de Bangkok, uma fotografia diferente, mais real, porém muito bela. Uma ost belíssima e a atuação excelente. Enfim, recomendo a série e espero por um especial que mostre o que aconteceu após o fim.
