Older gays! The show has older gays!!!

For me, the highlight of the show was the older gay couple. I haven't come across a show that would portray an older gay couple so this was very exciting for me. Especially since one of the older guys is 66 years old (in real life). I am so glad that they included this couple and showed their backstory as well, where they both were in a heterosexual relationship before and their love developed from the long friendship that they had before. It was truly beautiful to include that.

I was a bit annoyed by the fact that all the doctors in the show are not really that smart. Maybe they are just book smart but they lack social skills. May it be Tawan, Deer, Boss, or Por, none of them have any good communication skills sadly.

Mork on the other hand is a sensible and a really down-to-earth guy. He has seen the struggle in life, he has been through the pain and suffering that comes with life at a really early age. Even though his age in the show is not told but he is younger than Tawan who is 28. He started raising his nephew when he was 18 and has been supporting him financially since then. The way he talks is so humble and treats everyone the same way. He teases his friends and loved ones and makes lame jokes to make everyone feel at ease. One of the best characters I have seen in a while. He reminds me of Ae (from Love by Chance).

One of the things that I liked about the show was that no one was extremely rich. Tawan's family is well-to-do but that wasn't shown till the last episodes. The theme in most BLs where one or both of the main leads are extremely rich was getting really old. This was mostly just 2 regular guys who found their way to each other after facing a few obstacles.

Although we all hate Dr. Por, I do agree with one thing that he said. If it really takes a lot of effort from one of both sides of the couple to be together so much that it is straining the relationship, then maybe they are not meant to be together. Of course, something like this cannot be said as a general statement as each individual and each couple is different and their story is unique but from a personal standpoint, I agree with it.

As the last thing, I am glad that they had a trans character as well to ask the question, "Do you love the person or their gender?"
