GMMTV HAS REALY SURPRISED ME THIS PAST BLs

Where do I start...
I guess from the day we found out that Be My Favourite was going to come out. We found out that the leads were Krist and Mike, and I am gonna admit it that I was part of the people who were like: wtf...they literally do not make sense as a couple. And then Mike left and GMM posted on Insta that Gawin would be taking his place. I'll admit again that I was a part of the group of people who went: WTFaaaaa bruhhhhhh, that makes even less sense!!!!
Because let's admit it, Gawin and Krist did not make a pretty image at all in our heads. Man oh man was I wrong. I pride myself with my imagination and in my head, BMF was bound to burn to ashes and stay ashes. So imagine my surprise when I first saw them together and it made sense. I fell in love with them the second I laid eyes on them, and I gave myself a stern taking too. NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER.

I am glad that I gave this a chance, it is easily one of my top 5 GMMTV BLs. The first few episodes really had me in my feelings, especially with how Kawi treated Pisaeng. What I love about this, is that they didn't rush the process of them falling in love with one another. They didn't rush the process of Pisaeng coming to terms with his sexuality, Kawi coming to terms with his sexuality and also realizing that, although he can travel through time; he can't change everything.

It was painful yet beautiful to watch our two mains go through their troubles and then have them finally come together as a couple. I will admit that I thought it was too soon for them to become a couple, and I worried what the episodes to follow would become. Turns out I worried over nothing, I loved watching them as a couple, I loved watching Kawi let go and just give himself to Pisaeng(who in my own opinion, is too good to be true. I kept waiting for him to mess up, but that moment never came. He is easily the man of my dreams).

The dreaded ep 11 curse came after we were softened up throughout the episode. GMM made sure to make us turn into mush and then hit us with, I believe to be their greatest plot twist. I didn't see it coming, I actually clapped my hands after the episode and I was worried of the decision Pisaeng would make in the last episode.

The message was loud and clear, that even though you are faced with adversities in life and you know what your future will look like. The point is to not focus too much on that future, the point is that you live in your present to the best of your capabilities, that you have no regrets about what the future might hold. Every choice you make shouldn't make you want to turn back in time to fix that choice. Just...live man, love, laugh, and be happy.

A beautiful BL, a rare GMMTV win.
Will be rewatching it until I die.
