Let's talk gay shit
I feel like your enjoyment of this drama will depend on how many BLs you have seen previously because, the thing is, this is a GREAT drama for starters, but a little too much of the same for a veteran BL fan. Luckily for me, I had seen a couple of terrible dramas the past few weeks, so this one was a refreshing series to watch.
~Story:
The classic tale. All the elements that make up a Thai BL are here, so this was a safe choice. There really isn't anything memorable about it since it's a story that pretty much introduces people to the world of BL, so don't come expecting groundbreaking shit cuz this isn't the one to do such thing.
~Cast:
Pretty solid. I do not think they were bad, but a little staged instead. The actors needed to let the awkwardness go and become more confident so their performance can feel more natural. Let me talk about a couple of them:
-Pai: He was... okay, I guess. A little stiff, but did perform decently enough to not make me walk away. He needs to work on his chemistry because that's the biggest issue with his acting.
-Itt: This man was stiff as a board. I feel like he understood the assignment but didn't know how to apply it. His chemistry was also pretty nonexistent to the point it didn't feel like he was into Pai in the slightest.
~Pacing, Editing, and Production:
This was a very well made drama. You can tell the budget was decent and the production made good use of it. The pacing was pretty good as well, except the fact that I would have preferred if the mains had gotten together a little earlier in the story. There just wasn't enough time to bask in their relationship because we weren't given any to begin with.
Sis, this show has everything: Enemies turned to lovers, miscommunication, gay shit, bisexual shit, straight shit, ugly ass earrings, why did you buy that shit? Petty beauty contests, and so much more. I personally think this was a good drama and excellent for beginners in the BL genre. If you're a veteran, though, you may feel a little bored by it.
