Different but … soo good
I kindda bingewached this one … and never got disappointed.It’s true that those who want sticky kissing scenes with strange noices for every eye or head movement, or want the whole cast falling in BL might be dissapointed by this drama.
But for me this drama has a real and very interesting plot and even though it is a sad one you can easily adhere to the different characters.
It’s a pity that there aren’t more series with Karn and Nut, this being one 6 years after their first collaboration, cause even though they’re not a couple in real life they have good chemistry on screen (meaning they are really good actors). And the acting of Sood : top. Tae brought in the cuteness and it is always nice to see him on screen.
So … a big thumbs up for ALL the actors here.

Good chemistry … bad script
It is clear that Corea is still way behind Thailand when making BL series … however that’s certainly not the fault of the actors.Han Gi Chan and Holland portray an honest view of their relationship with real chemistry between the two of them.
For me Han Gi Chan can become the rising star of Corean BL series/films as he is very sincere in his acting (see also “Where your eyes linger”) provided he gets better scripts … scripts where real kisses and hugs and love scenes are not avoided.
For Holland : RESPECT!! This young man has gone through hardship and bad times but never gave up. I hope that the K-Pop industry starts to understand that the world is changing. I hope to see and hear more of him

Keep watching it …
I didn’t really understand the plot and normally I stop watching then … but here there was something that made me wanna continue watching it: was it the mystery, the music, the actors, … I don’t really know but watching this series I had moments where I was feeling sad and moments I felt overwhelmed with joy.This series is a cinematographic marvel with shots that blow you away completed with good music. And the chemistry between Meen and Rossi : steaming hot.
I want to see more of these two actors … cause they’re not only good looking but they are really excellent professionals.

It’s not a real BL drama but a « coming out » drama played out in a society class where appearances are everything. Drama that even in 2023 is still very actual for some young men … showing that society hasn’t really changed that much in the last decade even though in many countries around the world same gender relations are more widely accepted.
With the first remark in mind it is however well played by the actors. As a viewer you can experience a lot of emotions watching this one. But not many will be happy with the ending.

KP or UN … no discussion : UN
There where KinnPorsche (KP) couldn’t get my attention this series could … and for a number of reasons- The actors, both main and supporting roles are doing a good job … besides the fact they are really goodlooking.
- The plot changes of what we generally get : highschool or university stories … and this makeshift interesting on the same level as “Manner of death” or “Never let me go”
- The character Kim reminds me of a better (and hotter version) of Tine, played by Metawin (whom I like very much).
- The chemistry between the two leads is obvious.
That’s why I can’t wait to see new work of Saran …

Nice and refreshing plot
I just recently started watching BL drama … and this one is the only one so far that really « touched » me, soo much that even without realising it I had tears running down my face.I’ve seen work of Fluke and Ohm before and I like seeing them play together … but in this series it was much more the very excellent acting of Kao and Earth that touched me. There relation was much more intense and not only from the storyline but very much so from their interacting and their chemistry together which felt more sincere and real. These two actors can go very far in this business if they’re well represented.
Refreshing also is the « chaotic » interaction between Boun and Prem. You got to love them immediately … and I did.
For me this series is so far ranked among the best at the same level as « Never let me go » , « Manner of death » and the a bit less serious « Cutie Pie »

Ridiculous serie
I think this must be THE most ridiculous BL serie I’ve ever watched … to the point even that it’s not even funny anymore.After 2 parts of a episode I zapped every episode and watched only the scenes between Phuwin and Pond. Their chemistry is obvious (and that’s why “Never let me go” is a hitserie).
Concerning Neo … I saw him in Vice Versa where he overacted his part and portrayed it like an 8 year old boy. In this series it is even worse. And that’s a pitty because this young man has soo much potential. So, please next time cast this actor in a role that is better suited for him.
I can’t recommend this serie at all. It’s one for the “oubliettes” as we say in French.

Joong is the best
I watched this series to see the evolution in the acting of Joong … and again I wasn’t disappointed.All of the actors were very good and there acting very natural, the story was interesting and not too long … but every scene with Joong made the screen “explose”.
This young actor is among the best artist we can currently see in Thai drama. I would love to see him in other BL drama but he has soo much more potential … he should go to Hollywood and find a good agent over there to launch his career there as the next Hollywood heartbreaker ( like Tom Cruise or Leonardo di Caprio or …)
If he could reed this I would say : Joong ??

Zee Saint so unrealistic
I know Zee to be a great actor and I liked Saint very much in his first series. But here the chemistry they both need to portray isn’t there … at all. To me it seems that there is a genuine dislike of Saint towards Zee and that’s a pitty cause this ruins the magic of the main couple in the drama.Zee has already shown his acting skills is several other series which are top and I can’t wait to see new material of him.
Saint is a good actor as well as a talented businessman and I would love to see his new series.
But never put them together again in a BL drama

Lack of chemistry
A simple plot.Should do well with all BL lovers , however :
- there is no chemistry at all between the two main characters which makes the topic of an eventualiteit romance between them very hard to consider.
- the acting is poorly done like you’re watching a pre-take rehearsal reading in stead of the real episode.
- the only actors with some potential in acting are Prescott and Suthisawan, the others seem to be there just to read their lines, without any depth.
If you don’t expect much from a BL besides an occasional (half) naked body this could pass, otherwise better watch some Korean or Taiwanese BL of the moment.

Best BL since long
Honest portrayal by all actors of conflicting feelings in a recomposed family … and what a portrayal !!Best BL I’ve seen since long, not because of what it shows, but just because of what it doesn’t show.
The chemistry between the 2 main characters is obvious, but the “wisdom” of their little sisters is just to blow you away … amazing actors … all of them.
Some may say that 24 EP is too long … and indeed some of the plots where unnessacary but certainly not annoying.
The only “negative” point I have : I want to know how their story continues !!!!

Caption problems
Promised to be a nice series with loveable characters and actors … and it was … till watching EP 1/4 when suddenly subtitles appeared only in Thai.Unfortunately my knowledge of the Thai language is far from enough to understand the conversations … and even though I tried every suggestion of others that encountered the same problem I never succeeded to get the English subtitles again
Such a pity …
