Basically a recap of TT S2 + long trailer for Don't Say No
If you haven't seen TharnType 2 and don't want to probably just watch this! It's practically a short overview with highlights from the LeoFiat storyline with a few added scenes. In saying that, being 60 minutes, you're obviously not going to get the full story so some parts might not completely make sense. If you are interested in understanding it better you could go watch TT S2 - which has some extra Leo Fiat scenes that aren't in here but mainly ones that explain the situation/relationship between Type and Fiat.If you've forgotten what happened or particularly love the pairing this is also probably for you! Since I've already seen TT S2 I was a little bugged at first since I had already seen most of it, however it was a nice and short recap (especially if you watch it at 1.5x speed or skip though a few parts).
For people who have already watched and don't care to see their scenes again I would honestly just go to the 4/4 part which should be about 45mins in. From there, they are all new scenes I believe. Before that there are a few added voiceovers and screens which pop up in a trailer (I'm so sorry I don't know their name) but won't necessarily be worth watching or add to the story if you've already seen or are skipping through.
I know in the series I was sort of annoyed about character development but I think in the bathroom scene we get a bit of them growing as characters which I was super pleased and excited about. Also communication! Woohoo! From there I believe it sets up and gives a bit of context to what Don't Say No should be about and gives you a mini introduction I guess.
Overall, this is probably a one time watch- especially if you've already seen Tharn Type S2.

For what it is, its aight
Most of this is just recapping Leo & Fiat's story from TharnType season 2. There is some added stuff though which is pretty damn good! Like what happened right after the kidnapping/threatening scene which I still cannot take seriously lol. We see these two get it on for the first time and explain more why they didn't divulge to each other their feelings sooner.So, this was just a lead up to "Don't Say No" the series after all. Don't expect too much! This is also coming from someone who hated their story arch within TharnType, but as a separate entity it's much better

Give me Something NEW
https://world-of-bl.com/index.php/Thai/DontSayNoOk, I was angry at this, because I walked in thinking this was going to be some new material, like something we hadn't seen, but ... it was the opposite
This was basically just a compilation of TharnType scenes... that's it.. just those.. I don’t know if the Love confession in the end was part of the parent story too or not, I don't remember to be honest, but this was kind of a disappointment
Watched it in 2x, still felt nothing
But hopefully, Don't Say No will be better
5/10

POV ...
This was a lovely short drama from Leo POV, I really enjoyed seeing them together, and although it is basically the same scenario from Tharn & Type 2 there are a little bit of leo thoughts that do go along with fiat and how if they had just communicated from the start a whole lot of misunderstanding would have resolved.For people who have already watched and don't care to see their scenes again I would honestly just go for it.
Also, this was just a lead up to "Don't Say No" the series, which was really good and explained a lot of what happened with Fiat.
I can't say if there is any really particular order for this, I guess it just a matter of one choice and how much you really enjoy watching these two and the whole build up to what is going to come and what has already happened.
Overall : Good but again a repeat.

Communication? Never heard of it
"Why can't we understand each other?""Why don't you understand?"
These are essentially the main thoughts that are presented, but the answer is this: because you never say anything out loud! Telekinesis would be really useful in this universe, considering no one seems to know how to properly relay their feelings. Fiat is a brat and it's frustrating to see him narratively portrayed as the victim. It's one thing for a character to act that way and have some form of retribution or self realization, but he's constantly selfish only for Leo to come along and fix it. Speaking of Leo: the guy is too kind for his own good, at least towards Fiat. It's to the point where it's not admirable, because he needs to establish boundaries. The one time he almost does, he caves after about three minutes and is the one to apologize. He lets Fiat walk all over him, and Fiat still manages to put the responsibility of confessing onto Leo, as if Leo isn't the one who does everything in the relationship already.
"I love you, you hear me!?" No, he doesn't, because you were thinking when you said that. How can they be so upset that their feelings don't make it through, when they don't say a single word about them?
This is an hour long, but I honestly think that's enough of them for me. Which is sad, because I like Ja and was excited to see him as a main character in Don't Say No.
I shouldn't be surprised, considering it's the same series as TharnType which I dropped for similar issues of awful people doing awful things to others and coming out the other side the victim somehow. I guess the upside here is that Leo is more respectful and there's not such a question of consent, so that's an upgrade from TharnType. Sorry, this shouldn't be just me besmirching that show, but since this is basically just clips from the second season, it's not uncalled for for me to be mentioning it.
As for acting, I don't know if it's because I was irritated with the wholly unlikable characters, but I laughed in the crying scenes. Also, when Leo was punching the wall and venting, it felt very weak. It seemed like someone whose mom was in the other room and he didn't want her to overhear.
I don't know, I think I've just had enough of selfish people not getting called out and somehow trying to be portrayed as sympathetic. Everything worked out in the end, but I can only imagine the conflict that is inevitably going to follow in the series.
I didn't notice the music being particularly bad or good, but that's because I was too preoccupied yelling at my screen for them to get it together.
I think with better writing, Ja and First could be really likeable together, considering I like them both. This just doesn't allow much sweetness to come through, since I was too busy not liking Fiat and wishing Leo would stop letting Fiat do whatever he wants and then taking the blame after reacting appropriately.
Overall, I guess it's just not for me.
Additionally, since I didn't watch TT2, I know I definitely missed some of the nuances of the characters and this for sure doesn't give all the context needed so maybe they're not as bad as they seem, or maybe they're worse. I won't be finding out.
Also: I feel bad whenever I rate things poorly, and I did still find the two of them cute in the moments where they weren't being the worst, so that's why I didn't rate it as lowly as my precursive rant might have indicated.

Short, Special Episode
This is a recap of scenes from Tharn Type Season 2, it is not a complete story.If you watched TT S2 a long time ago, you may not want to rewatch it to get the back story on Leo and Fiat. This just pieces those scenes together, so you have a little history of what occurred between them prio to the series Don't Say No.
Personally, I ran across this and watched out of curiosity. It really isn't very good, but ok if you don't have high expectations.
The Series Don't Say No is very good, in my opinion.
