This is one of the strongest BLs I´ve seen, and I´ve seen a lot. I just feel like it had everything needed to make a good series. It felt very authentic and natural. I loved every couple shown, and I´m glad they had a natural development of the relationship and there wasn´t any insta love. I had a lot of steamy scenes very well done and they didn´t beat around the bush. I´m still salty about them not making a season 2, because a lot of things are now unresolved, I´m especially sad for TinCan cause they were my favorite, but I still have hope.

ONE OF BEST series for BL lovers!
By Being 'One of the BEST' BL I mean, you will find every minute, every second, Every Moment, Smiling, Adoring, Flowing with the story. Forgetting all the 'Fantasy' part similar that 2 Moons the series had, you could believe and learn from few Rich Men's life. They processed the Lights of "Love" in every milisecond of the episode that will make you fall in the series.BEST PART OF THIS BL
? Follows the Novel strictly and projects it very well, where several other series fails easily to do so. Storyline, though typical based on school scenes, passes through your heart following with details.
?Has Multiple couples. They are strong enough too that you will probably love them equally than main couple.
?Acting is 10 of 10. Their cuteness, frustrations, jealousy, drama mood, drunken scene, naughty attitude all flavours are extremely clean that your heart will bounce seeing their acting.
?Music is... i dunno what to say. Thai Music is, was and will be Great even if series is not good music will give you life. "Wish this love" OST by Boy Sompob is too much romantic.
? Straight guy and girl will collect lots of love even though you are for BL here.
? Accidentally watch it and fall in love, what are you waiting for XD
What I dont like is :
One couple gets incomplete ending that might break your heart.
If you believe in official tweets, chances of Season 2 is Like "No S2".
Not for those who want something like SOTUS or Chinese Wild insane lovestory.

I really enjoyed this series and i wasn't expecting it to move me this way. All the couples were excellent in acting and knew how to show deep emotions.My favorite couple was Pete and Ae. Initially i thought they were moving too fast with their feelings but got to understand it that when you finally find the one you just can't wait. They quite funny and at the same time touching.
For Can and Tin, i liked the way Tin tried to express his love in a way only he could understand but he should know that Can is just too naive to know anything about love. But i hope the Season 2 brings them together faster course i can't wait.
P'No and N'Kla were quite funny too but not much can be said for them though.
Tar and Tum too were amazing in their acting. I really liked Tar's acting even though there were a few scenes.
Overall i loved this series. It was great watching it.

Cute
The main love story, Pete & Ae, is the cutest and most wholesome story. I kept watching this for them. The story between Tin and Can was also sweet and had its moments (though sometimes things were coerced and not entirely consensual). I wasn't really interested in Tar & Tum. But the storyline that bothered me the most was Kengkla & Techno - Kengkla technically raped Techno but we're supposed to see this as the start of a relationship? Oof. No, thank you. Apart from that, the story was pretty good!Was this review helpful to you?
is really hard for me to like something so this is something I really love and just makes want to be loved like Ae loves Pete and Pete loves Ae, it is not just a typical love story it is more than that it is wonderful everything is beautiful. I loved so much that I made my screen savor a picture of Ae and Pete together hugging because they are so beautiful together. So I really recommended to by watch

Stopping at Ep 12 to keep the good feelings
I don't normally stop any series, but after reading reviews, and coming to the end of episode 12, I knew that any further and I would be disappointed, and likely angry. It ends with Pete and Ae happy, TinCan starting to date and not having a rape scene put in my face.Loved it through 12, and so I will take my happiness out and not let it spoil me. I maybe will watch Season 2. However, from the reviews, it sounds like I would be fast forwarding through anything that isn't TinCan and even then, not starting at the retelling of their story, but completely different.

I had a love/hate relationship with this series.Let’s talk about the couples in the show. I’ll be leaving the best for last:
Firstly Ae and Pete. They’re pretty boring. I didn’t see much chemistry at all. There’s no drama really after the blackmailing (and bizarrely never seen again) Trump vanishes. They get together and I was totally underwhelmed. The steamy locker scene which pops up on YouTube as soon as you type in the series names is as hot as it gets and after that it’s pretty tame with chaste kisses like they never got down and dirty in the locker room. I just don’t like these two as a couple and wasn’t that invested in them. I’ve read that due to some dispute Pete won’t be in series 2 and I won’t miss him...his character is a total Mary-Sue.
I could not care less about the weird brothers Tum and Tar. Zzzzz. The younger one looked all of 11 years old and the older one was just a creep who at one point almost rapes the kid. I ended up fast forwarding when they came on!
Techno and Kengkla - what the hell? Kengkla stalks Techno for the whole series then rapes him. If they turn this into an actual love match for series 2 I’ll be horrified. How is this okay? Well, the answer is that it’s not but I’m finding that these BL dramas seem to enjoy a bit of non-con as foreplay like it’s normal (see TharnType). I hope Techno gets justice not more of the same. I like Techno!
Tin and Can - oh my heart, I love these two! At the beginning I found Can really annoying but he really did grow on me. The way he clearly falls for Tin but can’t process the feelings is adorable. He just wanted to keep Tin in his life but Tin couldn’t deal with it and when he’s crying in the shower my heart broke. Oh, and that cinema scene - perfect.
Tin and Can are why I will watch series 2. I want them together!
Onto other characters in this show, special mention to the character of Pond. Pond is possibly the most annoying character I have ever seen on any television show EVER. There is literally nothing good about him. Hopefully he’ll fall off a building in the next series. Yuck.
I loved Good and his very slooow voice. I hope he gets more action in series 2. Also like Champ and the Type in this series is way less whiny than the one in TharnType which can only be a good thing. Let’s not forget Gucci the dog. So cute.

I can’t more to explained this movie, but i very very love this....
And i believe, many people loved this movie too
I hope this movie can continue until many eps and many season, and exactly with the same cast, especially “Ae X Pete”

Could've been done better
I usually don’t write reviews, but for Love By Chance it was a sign I had to. It's been a time since I last watched the series, and as far I have noted, it's overall a good BL. Tho the acting,, I have a feeling they could have done better. I understand the actors did everything they could with what they received, and as much as I love Perth(Ae) and Saint(Pete) I have to be honest and say it didn't sell me anything. There were some episodes where I cringed and literally had to stop there. The only reason why I kept going with the series, was because they annonced a season 2.The acting didn't sell me at all, because of the exaggerated cute scenes between Ae and Pete (spoiler: especially ep8/9 where they also had sex for the first time).
I felt the need to skip it all, and to be very honest, it just felt forced and it really didn't give off the cuteness it was supposed to give.
Apart from the Tum/Tar relationship, what I also didn't understand was the relationship between Can and Tin.
It honestly confused me so much, it was like I couldn't keep up with them at all. They tried their best to create the so called poor/rich relationship, but what was the purpose?
We had Can who literally was ready to fight anyone that breathes near him, and after confessing to Tin, it was like Tin immediately had to like Can back??!
Overall, I am very disappointed and hopefully season 2 is a lot better. Is it worth rewatching again? Absolutely not.
