A little unsatisfied
!A LITTLE SPOILER!
This is my first time writing a review and I've been thinking I should write one. The story was great, it was nice to see women empowerment but somethings just don't make sense, I'm writing this like a year or months after I watched the series so I'm sorry if some are wrong but didn't Neo say Shin was just a friend? If my memory serves me right, I don't think there was a scene where Neo said his feelings changed for Shin, this just made it confusing.
I forgot that guy's name (the one that liked Shin) but it was quite unnecessary how they put him there and the way Shin just let him almost kiss him even when he had Neo and Miw.
It's clear that they care for each other deeply but it's quite hard to see that they're all romantically inlove, atleast equally.
There's one thing that they didn't show on screen that made me question so hard, where did Neo get his bullets? Yes I know he got the gun from fighting one of the guys but it's just a gun with some ammo, where did he get ammo when it ran out? He's been shooting that gun for a bunch of times. Although this isn't important, it would've been nice to know where he got extra ammo because he couldn't have just gotten them anywhere not atleast if you got a permit or something to own a gun.
There was a scene where Shin peeked through the door to see Miw and Neo hugging, the difference between him and Miw was quite big. Neo stared at Shin while Neo touched Miws hands. I thought Shin would go inside and join the hug but he didn't, Instead he chose to close the door secretly and quietly That was disappointing and sad.
I liked the message, like at the ending they said, love whoever you want, love however you want and love how many you want. Or something among those lines.
Miw and Shin just looked like friends tbh but I know that two people can share a person without loving the other, so it's okay I guess.
Their kissing scene was nice though, their hug was so cute and wholesome too.
That guy that liked Shin, at the end he said something to Shins and I thought Miw and Neo would get jealous just like how Neo got jealous over Miws ex, but they just laughed it off, the show might be saying that they're open for Shin to have a separate boyfriend or for them to invite another person in but poly relationships, from what I know, are obviously just like any other relationships, I mean who wouldn't get jealous if their lover is getting hit on by another person? Poly relationships only work if everyone discussed if someone new should get in their relationship or they'll date another person outside their relationship, it's consent and permission.
I feel like there's more I could discuss but that's all for now I guess. If I can edit this, I'll definitely edit it when I could think of other things to discuss.
The show could've been better, atleast a little in my opinion.

Kinda unfair representation of sexuality and polyamory (IN MY OPINION)
A MUST WATCH. NOT FOR ROMANCE BUT FOR THE THRILL.~
First things first...towards the end of episode 9 and the entire episode 10, the decision the director took to dress Shin the way be he did...chef's kiss. Thank you so much for that.
~
Ok...now the most important thing according to 'ME'.
-.This series neither represented the BISEXUALITY nor the POLYAMORY properly. The way those two were depicted, kinda made it look bad because in real life that's not how bisexuality (or polyamory) works (I'm Bi myself).
-> FYI bisexual people don't love both the gender at the same time.
-> Tbh...I realized how they (series maker) played with the sexuality spectrum to show the audience the 'diversity' of love.
->Fine I understand the 'polyamory' situation but it doesn't involve having threesomes. I don't think people who practice polyamory do threesome (or keep simultaneous physical relationship with their partners) even though they exhibit the desire to have intimate relationship with multiple people.
BUT as the "love" represented by the characters were 'consensual'...I'll accept it.
(IN SHORT, A VERY MESSY/KINDA POOR REPRESENTATION OF SEXUALITY.)

The entire situation didn't just felt right for Shin (poor thing).
He (played) was just an innocent bunny who fell for a guy but...nobody actually truly loved him you see neither the guy (even though he said so) nor the girl (as he was gay to begin with so...)
He genuinely fell for Neo but in the end Neo chose (I personally felt) Miw (you too will get the feeling in the end) even though it was not portrayed.
I felt sad for him throughout the entire series.

But the thrill in this series was on point.

Not bad but not really good series.
This series tells about 3 youngs who suddenly become fugitives. It all started when Neo (Joss Wayar) as the main character in this series was involved in an affair with the wife of a wealthy businessman. This wealthy businessman named Mr. Thana. at that time, Mr. Thana told his men to kill Neo and bring his wife home but what happened was his wife who was killed by his men and Neo managed to escape. Long story short, one of Mr. Thana's man is killed by a woman named Miw (Wjmild) who finally creates a feeling of revenge for his friend (Gunsmile as Ter) and his lover (Jennie Panhan as Mae). Shin (Tay Tawan), as an only son of Mr. Thana, falls in love with Neo, because of that he as a man who happens to be at the scene with Miw, and Neo decides to help Miw and Neo escape. so, from here the story of this series was begins.Overall, I like the storyline even the plot is very very predictable LOL.
But the acting, (i'm so sorry) this is a bit horrible I think. Because sometimes I've been annoyed by the bad acting of the main characters (especially Joss). I didn't feel the feeling that the main role was trying to convey in some scenes. in fact, I felt that the supporting roles' acting was better. I admit that Joss is still new to acting so that's why I think he needs to practice more.

One of the best from GMMTV
This show is honestly one of the best offerings I’ve seen from GMMTV. The cast was perfect and everyone acted brilliantly - especially Jenny. We usually see her as a comedian but she did a total 180 degree turn here and did so well. I loved the action, the exciting plot which kept me on my toes and the friendship between the 3 main cast. This show pushes the boundaries with sex and gender awareness and is such a breath of fresh air. Once you watch the first episode you want to keep watching all the way to the end.Was this review helpful to you?

It was really good
To be honest, I only started watching it because of Joss. But I have to say, the series is very very good. I really liked the trio. I liked that it was a realistic relationship between three people where you could feel the love between them. Also Mae and Tur's story touched me deeply.A very good series with rewatch potential.

flawed but iconic
Originally watched this in 2021 and felt the desire to revisit it given the details were a little bit fuzzy. It's obviously not perfect, but it holds up decently for the most part. The concept is honestly fantastic but there are times when the execution is pretty clumsy (i.e. the scenes depicting domestic abuse sometimes felt gratuitous, Miw's very unnecessary biphobic comments, Shin and Miw making out (more than once!) when Shin is gay, so much tragedy surrounding Mae). Even so, I'm always happy to add another entry to the small list of canon polyamory on screen :) I also really really appreciate that 2 of the core 3 are sex workers, as it's difficult to find media about sex workers that isn't full of contempt towards individuals who work in that profession.This show is intense and thrilling (even with the low production value), and because of everything the trio goes through, it's easy to understand why they develop a deep bond (even if I think the Miw-Neo dynamic could have used a bit more buildup).
anyway I love gay men I love bisexuals I love trans women I love polyamory I love threesomes. thank you Thailand 💗

CRAZY BUT GOOD CRAZY
'Who gives shit about what others think? Its our life. As long as we don't hurt anyone, whom you love, how you love, how many you love doesn't matter. You do what you want. When you stop living to others expectation , your life would be happier'This drama portrays this beautiful message. When I read the plot, I was really skeptic about it. Usually I don't watch this kind of dramas. Thankfully I decided to give it a shot. I won't say it was not crazy. It was hell crazy but a good kind. At first I thought, the story was outright nonsense. When I started to watch it, I had so many question on my mind like why would shin help them? why didn't they go on separate ways? As the episode progressed the story build up was great. It answered all my questions. I was never a big fan of threesome. Normally I would have judged it. But this drama kind of opened up my mind. I kind of liked the relationship between 3 leads. They loved each other in their own way. I won't say the plot was great. It did have it's flaws but that made the series enjoyable as well. If you are fan of badass female lead dramas, you should definitely check this one out. This one is crazy but you won't regret watching it.

its only half i am tired
1.i really felt like punching those guys who made fun of mae like she is soo pretty. just found out the age difference between madam va and neo like what actors the passion they are showing just finished the first episode and this is what i call a good start and there where 2 dead bodys in the first episode itself i cant wait to see what comes next but i am kinda sad to see phon die i hadd started to like him.2.and i can already see the chemistry overflowing first off all they didn't give shin a chance to speak and then scolded him because he didn't say anything i feel so sad for mae. i don't understand why shin followed what neo said. tur is behaving like he's only job is to kill how selfishly he killed that poor motel owner. "That money is nothing, I have only one son.. His life is the most important" -thana. (Shin's father) . when neo was saying those things to shin it was soo sweet untill noe miw is the most selfish person i have seen and shin the most selfless neo is mix of both no matter how much i love shin neo and miw but i support mae for her plan to take revange.
3. i can understand miw's selfishness is because of her abusive mom. their idea at the checkpoint was just brilliant. its just episode 3 but at this point i really wish they have a baby for real. wow so much talk about gender equality . lets go girl power. i shouted when neo said three is better than two and laughed when miw showed the finger. cant i get a recap of the night you talked about neo . this series is teaching so much about family matters. i pity miw now. aww shin is so innocent. keep on fighting. i really hope things happen faster between the three of them. shin is really thirdwheeling atm. i am loving miw in this mood. third murder how many more to goo. kik and miw are doing the right thing. neo and shin look so much in love already. i think in that pendrive there are all the bad things thana did
4. i am having a bad feeling about neo's brother at least i am happy that miw and neo willnot just use shin as a bait. looks like miw got jelly when they where fighting. omg did mae and tur kill kik and her daughter this is getting too far i was ok with them getting revenge but not going on killing every one who are in their way. i really hope that mae gets some senses into tur. until now leo is ok but lets see.there she (miw) goes being selfish again
ik this is going to be a grate series ahead but now i am at the end of my capacity to think and type

characters had foundation but it wasn't enough for meeee
I heard about this show from oomf and watched it for the polycule and trans character, but I generally didn't know too much about what this show was about besides a cursory search on mdl. Basically, one of the main three characters has a mafia dad and due to reasons in the first episode the main three characters all get in trouble and are on the run. The main other plotlines include a revenge story and more dealings on the father's side. I didn't hate the show and I think the vision and concept was there, but it lacked substance. The running away and getting caught and running away plotline gets tiring after a while. Some of the plot beats are a bit hard to suspend my disbelief for...I don't think this show needed an extravagant or showy plot, but I really wish they took the time to explore the characters and their dynamics more. The foundation is there, but I just wanted more!! I think the romance was rushed, sadly.Was this review helpful to you?

Nailbitingly good!
This action packed drama had me on the tip of my seat the entire time.The actors, especially the 3 main leads put down impressive performances individually. But when they combine their efforts in some scenes, the chemistry and sync are truly amazing. These 3 were so well tuned in to each other!
Mostly for this reason I was a bit disappointed with the ending. What the hell was this baby faced guy PP doing back with Shin? Are they not happily living with the 3 of them?
The inner conflicts and struggles are well portrayed. Neo with his feelings of guilt and revenge, Shin with his difficult relationship with his father and Miw with her troubled youth and mother. The complexity of feelings and how to deal is a theme throughout.
This drama is not a BL, or even a romance drama. For me it handles much more the struggle to becoming the person you want to be, despite your environment pushing you in the opposite direction. It is about survival, relationships, how far you are willing to go to protect yourself and those you love.
The scene where dad threatens Miw and Neo while locking Shin in the office looked rushed and unfinished. There could have been more logical, dramatic choices. The surprise at the end of that scene redeemed it somewhat though.
Best performances are from Jennie and Mild. These are women who stand and fend for themselves. Look into their own heart for guidance and take responsibility for their feelings and actions. Real strong women. I love to see it.
Tay and Joss put down the best performance I have ever seen from either of them.
I would love to see a sequel to this. There may be a task here for whoever feels brave enough..

It was amazing
First of all I loved this show a lot! I’ve already seen it a few times and never get bored.Usually I don’t like action shows but it was amazing. I also loved the idea of adding a love triangle and a threesome to the story. It gave me polyamory vibes. I think there should be more shows like this one! I also loved Neos neighbours! They were so funny. There were a few parts in the story where I didn’t quite get what was happening but after watching it again it made sense. I highly recommend watching this series to everyone.
Also pls don’t hate I am not a native English speaker

GMMTV needs to bring back dramas like this
I have recently watched 3 Will Be Free and while I was expecting it to be comedic centric [something like Dirty Laundry] this did exceed my expectations. It's a romantic thriller however it does touches so many subjects like Polyamory, transgender, LGBTQ+ and much more. Every episode was thrilling to watch. Sure they could have given the characters more depth but they did have enough back story. I am glad we have series like this that is different from typical romantic dramas. So good to see Tay, Mild and Joss in roles like this.Was this review helpful to you?
