What To Even Say
How can I sum up my feelings about this show in a way that would be helpful for others?
I guess the most important part is provide some trigger warnings:
incest, mentions of offscreen rape of supporting characters, implied attempted rape, blackmail, homophobia including homophobic violence, unsafe sex, bullying, and tbh I'm not quite sure how to put this one but a sister actively shipping her own brother with a guy he hates. I have likely missed even more because this show drove me to befriend the skip button.
This show is hard to rate because the main pairing is so sweet and earnest, they eventually figure out how to best communicate when they're upset, they support each other as friends and as partners, and they're overall one of the most compelling onscreen Thai BL couples from this era. And yet. And yet. This show insists on splitting the focus across at least five or six couples, and every single side pairing is awful. Truly awful.
My best recommendation is to scrub through each episode; if you don't see Perth and/or Saint in a scene, don't bother. Their story is the only worthwhile part of this series.
