ITSAY: A cinematic masterpiece
I never believed I would ever make an account on MDL just to leave a review on a Thai series. I've just recently found myself obsessing over Thai tv shows, and I somehow came across so many people on Instagram buzzing over this ITSAY show. Out of curiosity, I ended up hesitantly watching the first episode half worried that I was wasting my time. A few minutes in, I was absolutely mind blown. The color scheme , the soundtrack, the cinematography, and Billkin's acting in the opening scene?? Literally everything seemed to suggest that this was going to be THE show of the year. I can't believe I was worried about whether the acting was going to disappoint, because Billkin and PP SERVED! They are probably the most talented actors I have ever seen star in a Thai BL series. I actually don't wanna label this as merely a Thai BL Series. This goes BEYOND just being a BL series (not that there is anything wrong with a BL series). It is the coming of age story of two young boys, and we are taken on a journey where they discover love, their feelings, and basically discover themselves with each other. The utter raw depiction of their confusion and them unraveling their feelings is so beautiful and heartwarming. I honestly do not think any review is going to do this series justice. The acting, the music, the cinematography, the symbolism, the plot, everything is just... *chef's kiss*
I really hope Teh and OhAew get the happy ending they deserve. But regardless of how this is bound to end, ITSAY will forever remain in my heart as a cinematic masterpiece. THE tv series of the year. Or maybe the century.
I'm looking forward to seeing Billkin and PP in new works. They deserve all the success.
