A Must Watch!
I was roped in through Tharne Type's trailer. I have watched the series 3 times already and thought should share my review although it's a bit late now. I do hope that it proves to be helpful to anyone who hasn't seen it yet.
I admit that I wasn't initially satisfied with the casting of Type , Techno and Champ and thought why they didn't use the actors from the Love By Chance series. It dwelled upon me for a couple of initial episodes. But then I started appreciating Gulf and Mew casting because it proved to be promising. I can say Gulf despite being a newbie in the industry soaked up to trend pretty fast and why not when he had Mew besides him. Their on-screen chemistry just became strong by every episode. The team-work of all the actors playing their individual characters made the series a great success.
It's a definitely Yaoi category and the steamy intimacy between Tharne Type characters will keep you hooked. Mew is an expert in doing these scenes and I have no clue how he gets into the character that well. At times, it doesn't even seem like acting. But that is why I am so satisfied with what role he plays - he gets into the character pretty well.
The story has a lot of depth. It isn't just about two men falling in love. It has many folds in it. Thus, I appeal to the new viewers to not miss on the topics portrayed and covered by each character. It's done beautifully. I can see how BL has evolved over the years from simply being a fan service to a more socially accepted genre. I want you to take it as a romantic drama rather than labelling it BL alone. At least, how I perceived it.
Techno's comedy is refreshing and subtle. He is my favourite character in the drama. His character relieves off the tension created from a lot of serious scenes. I really am grateful to the author for creating him. You'll love him too.
Don't hate on Lhong too much though. He is pitiful, you will come across the reason why I am saying this because I don't want to turn this into a spoiler. I couldn't hate him even if I wanted to. Guess, there is no right or wrong when it comes to human beings. We are just made with all kinds of things and we need to deal with it.
I believe people who watched the series once would want to watch it again. It's well made and I hope the sequel will be even better.
