The story was okay, it was there and it worked just fine, though if you're into BL you will probably pick up most of the plot from around the first episode. It's still nice to see though. Some of the things that happened are kind of like "wtf? That happens to children???" and the situations were very adult. You can kinda see why they were necessary but it's also a little like they're way too young to be dealing with this or have this, yknow? Other things, like the bad jokes that you "might expect from teenage boys" like fart jokes or being obsessed with sex are there heavily, and a couple of them are actually funny (in my opinion, like the 1,2 table thing ;) ) but the rest were very off-putting for me. Push though! The good stuff is there!! I promise!
The actors are actually pretty good, given that they're super young (at the point of filming the youngest actor was likely 15 years old) and they were playing gay characters. Because of this you can expect that they're not the greatest kissers or fake kissers, though taking in mind their ages it's more understandable, especially as someone who is around the same age as the actors and living in a country (UK) which is more accepting of gay people and LGBT than Thailand is currently, and thinking about if any other boys that I know of around my age they likely would NOT have done what they've done. So they've done an amazing job! I wish all of these boys the best of luck in their future lives!!
(ps I think Wit is one of the, if not THE prettiest of the entire cast, let me know who you thought was the prettiest!)
This series relies heaaaaavily on music, and it's actually okay, though it's not the greatest.
I might rewatch this sometime, but it would likely only be because I might have missed something or I forget things.
Overall I actually really liked the series! At he beginning I was like oh man this is gonna be super cringe isn't it, but I found myself enjoying most of it anyway, secondhand embarrassment really is heavy here.
(Remember to watch season 2!)

(ALMOST HEART) - LONG REVIEW, NO SPOILERSHonestly, I adored this series. It has its flaws, of course, but I couldn't help but love it. It's rather light but deals with important things at the same time. I will now go through some aspects of the show that may (?) be useful for those who haven't watched it. I will not include spoilers so don't worry!
STORY: I liked the concept very much. The whole friend-becomes-something-more-after-a-strange-night isn't new but I liked it despite that. Sometimes it got a little bit confusing because there were soooo many characters. I will talk about that later. But yes, I did like the plot, overall.
ACTING/CAST: Obviously there were some aspects of the acting that should be improved but can we really blame them? They were 15-17 when this show aired and most of them had no previous experience. I genuinely think they did an amazing job. The chemistry was there, even if the kiss scenes were bleh (this means they kind of sucked). Their lips didn't even touch. But other than that, I didn't feel awkward at all watching them interacting, which I tend to feel (it's not because they're boys; I feel this way with straight couples too. Unless they're well portrayed). You could tell they're friends in real life, which made it more enjoyable to watch. And to me, that made up for the somewhat unexperienced acting. I fell in love with Boom (Tee)- maybe because his voice could ease the most violent of storms. Really. I'm not even exaggerating. I really liked Ohm as well but I think his character, Frame, had a lot to do with that. Everyone did a good job in my opinion.
MUSIC: I really liked the music in this show. Specially “?????????? (Kon Mee Sanay)” which played only once (if I'm not mistaken) but it was such a sweet scene! If someone did that to me, I would literally melt. Those who have watched it, will know what I'm talking about.
REWATCH VALUE: I would, 100%, rewatch this. I'm going to start the sequel today or tomorrow but I already want to rewatch this one!
OVERALL: If this was the first BL series I'd ever watched, this would be a solid 10 stars for me. The fact that I gave it 9.5 stars says A LOT about the way I feel about this show. I'm quite new to this Thai bl dramas world but after watching some bl series I've become more critic of what I watch. I reaaaaally liked it. But now I would also like to point some things that did bother me after a while:
- Too many characters. As I've previously mentioned, the story got confusing sometimes because there were too many characters that didn't really contribute to the plot that much? For example, Mo, Fing and Tan. They were good side characters, specially Mo, but when the story focused on them it was boring and useless because they didn't have enough time to develop whatever was going on with them and make the viewers interested. So, in my opinion, they shouldn't have included those little storylines and concentrated on the main characters or at least develop them.
- The advertisements. //sigh// Do I really need to explain this?
- Are teenagers really like that? Frame and Book... "met" in a strange way. I'm 17 years old and I thought it was odd. Maybe I'm just boring? But I don't really go out to drink and have sex? Anyways.
- They forced those gay couples a little too much, in my opinion. Four+ gay couples and one lesbian couple (I mean, that wasn't clear but they did include the lesbian somewhere). Representation shouldn't be in quantity but in quality. And even though I like most of those couples, sometimes it made me think they were obviously doing it for the crazy fans who are starving for skinship between two boys, instead of focusing in facing the real issues that might exist in gay couples (society acceptance, for example). It would be awesome if they improved that in season 2. We'll see.
- That "first" scene with Book & Frame. I don't want to spoil anything but it bothered me a lot. It was not like it ruined the relationship's dynamic for me but it came across as if Book didn't want it and Frame literally forced him. Apparently it was not their intention with that scene but yeah.
NOTE: The ending would have bothered me if I didn't know there was a second season.
I'm sorry about this long review but hopefully it was helpful to some of you. (:

“Make It Right: The Rookie BL That Made It So Right”
For my very first BL review, I wanted to go back to where it all started for me—and what better way than to shine the spotlight on Make It Right, a Thai BL series that may not have the most polished cast, but more than makes up for it with charm, heart, and raw potential.First off, the fact that most of the lead cast are young and relatively new to acting piqued my interest. It made the entire series feel organic, unfiltered, and relatable—especially for viewers like me who appreciate a coming-of-age narrative that doesn’t try too hard to be perfect.
Story/Plot:
The emotional tug-of-war between Fuse and Tee is both frustrating and deeply relatable. Fuse's inner conflict—torn between two people who hold special places in his heart—echoes the kind of confusion many of us have faced in young love. While I do find Fuse a bit naïve (his constant consideration for Jean despite everything was head-scratching), the Fuse-Tee moments are undeniably sweet and memorable. Boom (as Tee) completely owns the role, and his smile alone could launch a thousand fan pages. Together, Boom and Peak gave us a BL pairing that feels tender, awkward, and unforgettable.
And then comes the surprise duo: Frame and Book. I had no idea what to expect from them, and that made every episode more exciting. Watching Frame transform from a flirty bad boy to a naughty but sweet boyfriend was such a delight—it was like watching a fanfic come to life in the best way possible. These two brought energy, charm, and an addictive tension that made me eager to hit “Next Episode.”
I also appreciate the subtle inclusion of a GL element through Fing’s character. It would have been great to see her storyline explored more deeply, but her presence did add another layer of emotional diversity to the show.
Acting:
As expected with rookie actors, there were moments that felt a bit stiff or lacking in emotional depth—particularly in the earlier episodes. I would’ve loved to see stronger facial expressions from Boom, Peak, and Toey to make some scenes hit harder. But to their credit, they grew into their roles over time. Ohm, in particular, stood out with a surprisingly nuanced performance for a first-timer. Overall, while not perfect, the entire cast was charming and easy to root for.
Music:
The soundtrack? Instant mood booster. I’ve already added most of the OSTs to my playlist—and they never fail to put me in a good mood. Whether it’s a tearjerker scene or a cute moment, the music always complements the emotions perfectly.
Rewatch Value:
Three full rounds of binge-watching and counting… so yes, this is absolutely a rewatch-worthy series for me!
OVERALL:
Make It Right is a light, feel-good BL series with a lot of heart. It may start a bit rough around the edges, but it grows on you fast. The story is emotionally rich, the music elevates the mood, and the characters—though young and imperfect—will leave a lasting impression. If you’re a BL lover looking for something sweet, nostalgic, and heartwarmingly real, this one’s a must-watch.

Then obviously the ships in this show kill me, especially Frame and Book!! They give me life!
This series has left such an impression on me and I will not forget it!
The writers are ginius so if they do a season 3 I don't doubt it will be also a work of art!
Breath if you agree!!!!

However, the couple development is really good especially the Frame x Book couple and is one of the reason, I think, the pairing is famous. The pair's story development is great and one can definitely understand where the romantic feelings come from.
For the main couple, there seems to be a lot of confusion with push and pulls that would make you rethink where their feelings are really progressing too. The chaos makes it hard to see the actual direction of the main couples. The theme song is good, catchy and is appropriate (the kind of music that will give you the feels along with the show). Generally, it is still part of the BL Series one should watch out for.

Make It Right shows the typical high school life of falling in love, yet in most case here with the same sex. It has a good story line that depicts youth. The couples have great chemistry, the production team really did a great job in casting and pairing them. On and off cam the actors are really cute together. I personally love how their friends, family and some people around are so accepting. If only everyone could be like them, then the world can be happier. You can have a good laugh, heart fluttering moments and the skinship of the couples here are no joke. This series can seriously cater the fantasies of fangirls/fanboys without being too much or vulgar since the characters are really young (i feel so old when i saw their age lmao)
Acting wise, I cannot really say that it was good but I gave 8/10 since this is the first show of most characters here. Season 2 is already out you should check it out as well because they kinda grew up and became more mature there and their acting quite improved too.
IF YOU LOVE BL STORIES, THIS IS ONE YOU SHOULDN'T MISS.

Okay, this series was telling about teenagerhood. We had 3 couples in here and 2 couples from outside the school. At the beggining of the episode they introduced us to TeeXFuse couple; Their main problem was created because they screwed up while drunking a bit similar with TGWM story but i think MIR way it better. By adding their friends gang's jokes; Mo, Wit, Ess and Frame which were super funny, they succeed make me laugh out loud. Mo also got my attention in the beggining of the episode. After that, when TeexFuse things getting bore they presented to us the second couple FrameXBook, their relationship was built becos of unexcpected event. Their love story managed to soar in the air after we get saturated with first couple. I think we all agree that they steal the attention from whole series, they are the highlight. After that we were introduced with the next pair and so on. So we won't get bored. But sadly the last couple couldn't make it on my eyes.And other conclusion: (1). At the beginning I really-really like this much. But in the end of episodes one couple's story turning to being forced, fortunatly that they can cover it up with lots of jokes. (2). I want to give applause for the main actors's acting. Especially actors who play as Book and Mo! Why? Book didn't have many script yet he can delivered the emotion throught his expression as a shy and reticent boy. Mo -> He's not main character in here! He is a silly man i can get his jokes, but sometime he can turns into a serious man, like seriously his crying scene i got the emotion from that, i can feel the pain of the separation. Damn! His character like roller coaster, up and down. I can't wait for his next story plot. (3). I don't really like the acting of actor who play as Tee. He is stiff. (4). If you expect for VIVID SMEXY TIME! NO THEY DON'T HAVE IT! They even don't have properly kiss even just once! even just one couple! RRRRGGHHH We need fan service, don't we?
What i mostly like: Teenagerhood! That made me wish if i were a boy! I really-really loved their GANK!
What i don't like: Fuse's sister love story kinda forced and confusing. They want to make it twist but they didn't manage it well. Lastly, too many ads they put to the story.

Now I know. Thai BL series are all pretty much fan service for fujoshis. This one however reminds me of those fics written by 13 year old girls who know nothing about relationships, let alone queer ones.
The humour is silly and childish and seems out of place with the overall plot. A lot of it brought me so much second hand embarrassment that I had to stop and take a moment to shake it off.
I'm used to awkward kisses too but the main characters looked like they were being held at gunpoint during theirs, and when they're hidden by the camera angle it's obvious they aren't even touching. Not saying the actors are to blame for this, maybe that's how they were directed, but either way it looks cheap. Their chemistry lacked too.
Overall everything felt shallow and halfway done. I couldn't get invested into the characters or relationships. Interactions seemed forced and awkward and I couldn't get myself to click next past the 8th episode.
If you want some mindless fantasy, and cute guys to lose your mind over then this is for you. But if you're holding out for a good narrative and interesting characters you might want to skip.

SWEET BUT NOT GREAT
This is an average BL series. One of the earlier productions, so many of the faults must be forgiven. Filled with amateur, teenage boys so the acting isn't aways up to par. But it's sweet, tender and has a nice sense of first loves that makes it better than the sum of its parts.The story is very simple an straightforward, despite tossing in some interesting issues (that are skimmed over or forgotten quickly, unfortunately). A bunch of couples slowly realize their feelings for each other. Filled with countless innocent misunderstandings that cause far too much drama, angst and pouting/tears. Sometimes these couples are so good at expressing themselves to each other - until the writer needs them to stop communicating so they can create fake drama between the couple that could be easily resolved in 2 sentences. And it becomes the same misunderstanding over and over again, so it's tedious, repetitive and doesn't evolve as much as I would have liked.
The acting fluctuates from horrible, amateur moments to moments of very real, natural and moving tenderness. All the boys do better once they get over the set-up (where their characters act OUT of character) and past the fake drama (that is so forced by the writer that even a great actor would have trouble being convincing) and start to fall in love. They can each convey their feelings with just a glance when they are allowed to. They all have some sweetness and naivete that is truly charming. and makes you like them despite their characters not being fully developed.
But the writing and direction are terrible. The simple story could have been told in half as many episodes, so it feels like the writer is dragging things out, rehashing old feelings, and going over the same territory repeatedly. The direction, like many early Bl series opts for those ultra-long held gazes, where the actors are forced to stare at each other for 45 seconds for absolutely no reason than to create atmosphere and emotion where there would be none. The poor actors are not up to the task, and this is where they and the series suffers the most. The characters do not evolve in a realistic fashion. One minute they are in love, the next denying it, the next confused, the next in love. Some of this is expected in for a teen who is just discovering their sexuality, but once you declare your undying love for your boyfriend, I don't buy you going out with your girlfriend or hooking up with some random stranger. If you're still going to fluctuate - then don't declare your love. You can say, "I've never been happier, but it's all still so confusing. " Easy. But not, "You're the only one for me... until tomorrow when that girl I don't really like, who cheated on me in Episode 1, calls me up again."
The series also suffers from a lack of focus. Is it light-hearted, romantic fluff or more serious, adult-themed? Bringing up issues like online hook-ups, non-consensual sex, societal taboos, etc and then just dropping them without a full examination is lazy and potentially harmful fo the target audience. For the most part it wants to be sweet, but then , unlike most BL series actual intercourse is implied, discussed and even has harmful consequences. (I really wish the writers would talk to gay men who have engaged in intercourse so they would get the details right)
Not sure if I'm missing something, but very little seems resolved at the end of the season. The final conflict between Tee and Fuse is so minor I'm not sure why it becomes the biggest and most emotional sequence, and its resolution is so unsatisfying. Other stories are just dropped or left unresolved as well. Maybe they knew they were filming a second season and wanted cliffhangers, but none of it felt fully realized.
I would watch again for the cute, tender moments and just to see these sweet, adorable boys again. But for now, I'm moving directly to the sequel to see how they handle the next evolution of each of these couples.
