Not your average BL. Ideas are bulletproof!
The plot is really cool, such a punk vibe.
Love how this works, it's not just BL, honestly let's not put this in bl category, this is a show about fighting for your ideas, your beliefs, your voice. Fighting against the system and the government. Not your average bl. The romance here's it's kinda a bonus, yes it's important to the plot but it's NOT the plot, and that's what I loved the most!
You know, mostly bl is just pure fetishism to fujoshis, that thing really makes me pissed. In this story they don't force a fan service and to me particularly, goes in a good and natural flow (the romance, main couple)
On the other hand, the others couples feels kinda awkward to me.
Yok and Dan don't gives me a cool chemistry. The acting of Yok was amazing, he's was the character! But, to me, Dan wasn't that good, he acting skills was lacking. Also they don't give us enough to really feel the love that they supposedly feels (?) You can see Yoks love but can't see the Dans love...
But HEY I REALLY LOVED YOK'S MOM! Representation of deaf people is always appreciated!! Wish she had more scenes tho
Gram and Eugene, I get it, cute, they are cute, just that. But Gram was annoying lot of times. I don't know, the show don't give much about his character, not enough to makes me care about him, in the beginning I really liked him but later he was just boring, in the beginning he seemed really good friend of Black but wasn't, he never really thought "Black" was weird. Eugene acting skills also, don't was that bad but not good though... I didn't like nothing about her, and they lack on the chemistry WORSE than YokDan.
Honestly I am kinda impressed with the acting of Black/White, I was expecting the worse since the first show that I watched of this guy was Love Theory (?) and oh gosh I HATED everything there. It's not easy make two roles in the same show at the same time, he was really good on that.
Since I didn't watched many Thai dramas yet, I definitely wasn't expecting good on here. It's cool, really cool, to this moment the best of GMMTV that I watched. It was worth all the almost 14 hours I spent here, I watched everything in two or three days . Not perfect but definitely GREAT!
Now things that REALLY ANNOYED ME:
1- White change to Black really fast, that tattoo would never be okay in just a day, also the earrings tho. He just become Black and his dad never noticed shit! That's how you have a present father who is absent at the same time. His dad never asked when did you pierced your ears? Where you've been? Nothing.
2- They give us a feeling that Sean knows that White wasn't Black and they're twins. I think was in the episode 9 or 10 that Black comes back, they showed us a flashback of Sean asking to White (that was pretending to be black yet) "Are you nearsighted?" "Do you have a brother?" And also back them Sean saw the glasses and the eye contacts while turned Black's entire room upside down AND supposedly he got Black drunk precisely because he was suspicious. Then when the real Black appears smoking and being rude, Sean didn't notice that this guy wasn't that "Black" he loves. And then he really got angry and crazy insane. This part I HATED SO MUCH because seems really bad written...
3- What happened after Todd tried to drown Black? They talked some shit then cut the scene then Black is okay appears doing something. That's bad.
4- The kisses... Ugly... Really ugly. White x Sean kisses... Just ugh ugly. Don't know how explain but was really ugly lol I prefer zero kiss scenes than that shit.
5- They didn't showed us why Black hates his mom, I mean, kinda, but what the hell made them break the contact? After all, she's a mother, but don't seems like one.
That's it.
