Lot of issues with the story
This will be one of the unpopular opinion but here it goes:
The relationship started between TharnType starts with un-consented sexual advances from Tharn and no apologies from Tharn about it, Type punches and kicks Tharn (he does not apologize about that either), Type's language is hurtful and even after knowing he never changes his ways about that, P'San took advantage of Tharn when he was young and underage and he is still in touch with his family which is exactly what happens in abusive relationship, Lhong sends people to rape Tar but he wasn't punished, Tar's step-brother forced himself on Tar and the list of issues with the story goes on and on and on. They should add trigger warning for the episodes.
Somehow they show it is okay that even if your words are really hurtful, you use violence like kicking and punching to your boyfriends stomach it is okay, you make homophobic comments but do not apologize for it and that is okay and so on. It really sends out bad message.
Things I liked about show: It doesn't follow the usual cliche which is shown that in gay relationships one person needs to have feminine characteristic. Even though Type "fake"s break up and did not communicate the issue with Tharn, at least he had trust in the relationship and did not just "believe" whatever he sees. He analyses and trusts his boyfriend enough. There was some character development from Type and if special episode was combined here then it would have been better and I would have rated 1 point extra haha.. The acting is really good, when there was consented kisses: the chemistry between the leads was really good, OST was nice too.
