Adapted all 4 stories of Tawan & Winnie, Jaojay & Sitang, Perth & Pipim, Papie & Jaokha well
Honestly, the prologue was perfect from beginning till end. Blending all 4 stories, More and More, Be My Baby, Be My Sugar, and Be My Boo, exceptionally well for a 44 mins short film. Their acting definitely improved, and camera-work captured each scene/mood nicely. It's as if the characters themselves jumped out from the books to tell their parts. xDLove the small little sound effects added in some scenes too. Although some background music was a bit too loud in some scenes, when the narration was going on. Or maybe that's just my device. Though that's all good, since they are still learning along the way when filming. ^^
Thank you to the whole production crew, producers, cast and author for making a masterpiece of a prologue. I can see why it wasn't going to be called pilot trailer. Be Mine the Series, will be on my watchlist for sure. Looking forward to when it comes out later this year. In the meantime, let me keep re-watching the prologue., and everything on their channel and socials, while waiting. ^_^

It did what the prologue is supposed to do
The prologue did what it’s supposed to do – it introduced the characters, gave us some background info and teased what might happen going forward. With the end being focused on fanservice. I was a bit surprised by that, but I guess they tried to show the chemistry between the actresses. I think we could sense chemistry between them before too.Tawan & Winnie: I am a fan of forced proximity in series. And secret crushes. So, their storyline seems completely up my alley. I am a bit confused about the relationship between Tawan and Winnie from before. At times it seems like they are kind of close, and then at other times it looks like Tawan is just admiring Winnie from afar. I hope this will be made clearer in their series. The plot twist was a bit of a surprise.
Jaojay & Si: Office romances seem to be it trope for series lately. And I don’t mind that, as long as they are done well, and they are not all the same. Cold boss and a cute intern with a crush on the said boss. Looks promising, but I fear it will end up being too similar to GAP. Which might overshadow the series, as GAP was quite big when it came out.
Pipim & Peeraya: Fake / temporary relationship, another great trope. However, I am not the biggest fan of power dynamics here. It seems like a big red flag to me how Peeraya is only agreeing to help Pipim if she agrees to temporarily date her. Even if she might have feelings for her, it just doesn’t sit right with me. I really hope they will find a good balance for their story.
Jaokha & Papie: Young love, heartbreak and tears. It looks like Papie is trying to do the “noble” thing, but it will backfire. So, will this be a second chance romance? It kind of looks like that to me, which is again an interesting trope. But seeing what I saw, they might be a couple that I will not want to end up together.
Tawan and Jaojay are best friends. The same goes for Si and Pipim, with Si also knowing Peeraya. And them Pipim and Papie are siblings. Maybe Jaojay and Jaokha are related too? Their names are making me think that, we often get siblings with similar names in Thai series. I'm not familiar with their stories from the novels. Either way, all the girls are connected, one way or the other.
I do wonder if Pipim & Peeraya and Papie & Jaokha will also get separate series as they also have their own novels, or just be introduced as side characters. Either way, I am looking forward to the two already announced series.

I enjoyed a lot
I enjoyed a lot watching this series, it was so cute , calm and beautiful, their acting was good and beautiful, I would like to see these four beautiful cute couples, and really i like it a lot.this kind of shows tell us how "the love" beautiful when find your right one that one whome meant to be for you.
the first couple was cute and the second was pretty and the third started with a temporary relationship, then the fourth tell us that you shouldn't decide something in relationships without asking the second one who you are with.

Great introduction to the series
The prologue did a great job with introducing all the four couples and blending their stories together without confusing the viewer. The change between the focus of each couple felt natural and I wonder how they will interact with each other in the actual series.Pipim & Peeraya: Probably my favourite couple of these (I'm not saying it's because of the car scene but I'm also not saying that it's not ;)), they seem more mature than the others. The fake relationship dynamic is also interesting and although it's not my favourite trope, I'm looking forward to see how their story will unfold.
Papie & Jao: Their dynamic is also interesting since they are ex-lovers. which is a trope I don't see often. I also love Papie's character.
Tawan & Winnie: And they were roommates! Loving this, especially the coffee talk. Not sure how I feel about Winnie having a fiance though. It will certainly add more drama, that's for sure.
Jaojay & Sitang: I'm glad that they changed Jaojay's age to 22 year-old instead of 19. The office romance and the age gap reminds me a bit of GAP but I'm sure that there will be something to make it different and unique.
Overall a 8.5/10 rating from me and I can't wait for the actual series!

One long but excellent trailer
This basically functions as one long trailer and showcases four couples that are all somehow interwoven:1) Tawan has had a crush on Winnie since highschool and has always kept it a secret, however, due to their father's arrangements, the two are suddenly forced to become roommates. (adapted from More & More)
2) Tawan's close friend Jaojay has decided to follow her father's advice and become an intern for Sitang, a skillful but ruthless business woman. Jaojay even starts to develop feelings for Sitang and decides to seriously and unapologetically pursue her. (adapted from Be My Baby!)
3) Pipim's father gets into some legal trouble, to sort out the details and loghten the emotional burden, Sitang recommends Perth as someone who will help Pipim sort through this difficult process. Perth however is a business woman and in exchange for her service, she asks for another: Pipim must act as her temporary girlfriend. (adapted from Be My Sugar!)
4) Pipim's collegue Papai used to date Jaokha but broke up with her while her family went through a rough patch but finds herself still caring for her. The two are nonlonger the same as they were before, but try to reconcile. (adapted from Be My Boo!)
I'm very excited for this series to air. Rumours say they are currently filming (as of October 2023) meaning it's unlikely we'll get a realese before 2024, but ??? let's hope for 2024.
