Not good, get you to stay just for the romance - not for the plot (what plot?)

This might be the hardest review to write.
I know loads of people already discussed this on twitter with the director himself, but I can't shake off the feeling this show is all based on the fetishization of the actors. It's fine if the s*x is in line with the plot, but here, for the first episodes at least, there is more nc scenes than plot. And it's a pity, 'cause the plot had HUGE potential.
If you overlook the stalking, and the forced kiss (Style forced kisses on Fadel, ep 2), or the forced sex (Fadel has sex with Style in order to get Style leaving him alone), the plot is different - it's so different I can almost overlook the plotholes. So many things did not make sense: like Style accepting to work with Kant, nor getting mad at Kant who basically set him up with a hitman. The dynamic between Style and Kant makes ZERO sense.
What keeps you hooked - again, if you don't take this show seriously - it's the couples. Fadel and Style are so sweet I found myself cheering for them even if everything else it's going downhill. As much as I love First Khao, I cannot find myself enjoying KantBison - Kant urging Bison to date ruined the chemistry, to me. Also there are things that don't make much sense with the plot about how the two of them act. For example, Bison talking all about kwordinig Kant's ex in front of Kant himself - just makes no sense at all.

I'm sorry, again, 'cause I love ALL the actors involved in this mess. I just wish they had a better script.
