I don't know what it is about Mame's couples that makes them extremely shippable! Especially Mew Gulf and Ja First, I can't get enough of them!
Love In The Air was no exception, but while I really enjoyed Payu Rains story I basically fell in love with Sky Prapai!
I mean everyone from Noulle to Boss is attractive, but I don't know what it is about Peat Fort that I have literally watching them everywhere lol and just shipping them bad!
their story made more of an impact on me obviously, cause I love angsty, emotional red flag couples like Vegas Pete, Tharn Type, and Leo Fiat :')
buuut tbh Prapai is basically a less insecure Leo, and Lei Fiat have some toxicness to them like Tharn Type that makes it even more shippable for me lol but for once I guess Im more into how wholesome Sky Prapai's relationship is! and despite their conflicts they always find their way to each other. Also the intimate scenes are just hot and a little depraved which I love.
So yes, all in all, it's not perfect by any chance, writing wise or direction wise but still the couples made an impact on me. stood out from the rest.
And that finale was really something!

Incredible effort
The series is divided into two parts, one where we have rain and payu, second where we have sky and prapai.I really liked both the stories, both the storylines are different from one another. The acting is amazing, specially sky's character is so well enacted that genuinely feel all the pain and the struggle that character had faced.
The series with rain and payu's story is extremely sensual and has a different intake on relationship between two person with different personalities, one of them being talented and mature self made man where as on the other being cheerful but slightly Immature student. They work on each other and embrace their flaws and help each other to grow.
Ok something might not be acceptable like payu trying to seduce rain against his will, agreed but rest of the story where he encourages, supports and protects him was quite nice to watch.
Whereas if I talk about sky and prapai, literally & honestly l wasn't prepared for such a heart breaking story. I really really have to appreciate the acting skills of both the actors. Such an innocent character portrayed so convincingly that you connect with him so much. You can so feel the fear, anxiety and the horrible pain sky has been through and prapai genuine urge to love him.
The story does start with a misunderstanding, in my personal opinion prapai wont have forced sky to do anything but since sky's character was to broken and used to all this that he just gave in. I love the character development in the series. How prapai felt sky's pain and held him or how sky could finally rely on someone who really loves him. It was a really beautiful story and a tough one to watch in a sensitive way as well as heartfelt way.

Good series that is also a BL
I really liked the series as a series and as a BL. I highlight a few points:1) It has given us the option to see the two stories complete and independently. Normally this is not the case and the "second couple" is overshadowed.
2) Great chemistry of the Boss-Neoul couple. It's a typical enemies to lovers story but with nuances of maturity in the relationship that I liked. I was surprised by the naturalness with which Rain (Noeul) accepts having a relationship with a boy.
3) Very good story of the Fort-Peat couple. Sky's character is very complex and I think the series reflects well what happened to him in the past and how he lives it in his day to day life.
4) Finally, I would like to highlight the excellent acting of Fort, the youngest actor in the cast (22) whose character is older. Besides being very handsome his acting in the emotional scenes is very believable and the evolution of his character from carefree playboy to man in love has been great. I'm looking forward to seeing him in his next work (Moments of Love).

Another series completed. And it's a MAME series. Now I know that I have said this on numerous occasions- me and MAME have a love/hate relationship. I don't know why but I will always watch her series. And what can I say about this one? It had its moments between the two couples.Story-7.5/10
Now I know that I am in the minority here but...I preferred Prapai and Sky's storyline over Phayu and Rain's. I said it before, Phayu and Rain's storyline for me basically ends at episode four. They are together- and that was the end goal for me. The other three episodes are just scenes of NC and a so called 'baddie ' ( who utterly sucks). That's what they were to me.
Npw, Prapai and Sky's storyline actually had substance that they were able to carry throughout in the six episodes. And that last episode made me so emotionally angry - and not due to the actors. But due to the emotions that Sky was going through/ went through in his story.
So, due to that, I give the first couple's storyline a 7 qhile the second one I will give an 8, making my total 7.5.
Acting/ Cast-8/10
I must say that I was impressed with everyone's acting, especially the actor who plays Sky. The emotions that he went through...literal chills. As such, I am giving an 8.
Music-9/10
I actually liked both the opening OSTs for this series for both couples.
Rewatch Valu-8/10
I give this an 8 on the rewatch spectrum because, as I have previously stated, the first couple's storyline felt a bit weak to me and they stretched this to seven episodes.
Overall-8/10
Overall, I give this series an 8 (like an actual 8 unlike another one of MAME series where I'm just to lazy to actually change it). I was entertained and also emotionally drained, especially in the last episode. I can see myself recommending this.

Refreshingly Different!
I think that allowing for such a different storyline with refreshingly new faces allows for such a great show. As much as I'm a complete sucker for the cliché engineer student genres, seeing bls expand into more interesting storylines brings joy to my heart. The street racing is such a new concept that draws you in!The cast is also just visually pleasing to look at and my favorite thing is seeing new actors, becuase I'm always ready to show new support to them!
This show has so much potential within the storylines and I'm so ready to see where they go!

Ayoo the leads are so Hawt and cute with good acting skills.
Y'all don't go by the poster, the poster really didn't interest me I just started watching because I had nothing better to do.
BUT IT SLAPS....I LOVE IT.
the story is so far so cool and cute, perfect for a rainy day under the comforter.
Their acting is good not like some cheap production.
This is all I can say for the 1st episode but I'm really looking forward to how everything turns out later...it's really interesting and cute and the actors are hawt..I LOVE PAYU'S MAN BUN.

I can see me getting obsessed with this
TW for MAMEness!THE only real complain I have is the Music, but that's a problem with more than a few first episodes so I think next episode is probably gonna do better on that front.
Rain is cute AF, he is clueless and anxious and clearly has a little crush on Payu but the way he is portrayed is a lot less annoying than most clueless Leads. I can't wait to find out how his Character is gonna deal with a Guy like Payu.
I appreciate that Payu had actual Reasons to think that Rain is into him, of course his Behavior would still not be okay IRL but he's hot in the Show and just cocky enough to be fun to watch and not so arrogant to become unlikable.
(can't say much to our 2nd Couple yet!)

"where there is storm ( phayu), there is rain!!!!!!!!!!
i am writing my first review and this drama compile me to write something, without writing i can't resist myself. love in the air is the one of the drama i like the most. the plot of the story simple but mesmerizing. this drama has 14 episode, 7 episode about rain and phayu. this is drama is not complete yet but there is story in drama is complete. so this review has to be write for them.Before official trailer came, they post plot trailer. seriously that time i was like, "what is this bullshit!!!!!!!!!" because that plot trailer give me toxic feeling and personally i don't like toxic and obsession type drama. so i thought i would have to skip this in future. but their official trailer came , i like it but not for this couple. the 2nd story couple whose story is not air yet. in that trailer prapai said to rain," NOONE WILL TAKE YOU AWAY FROM ME". this line stole my heart. i don't know how many time i watch the trailer just because of this line
i never new that at first whom i fell for.........., they have 2nd story and i have to wait for them 7 weeks. this is really difficult to wait whom you waiting form so many months and start to watch whom you even didn't think about it.
but they are able to make me fall in love with their story without any disappointment after watching this series i was really become crazy person. their chemistry is really incredible.
i think they had both love at first sight. first 2 episode, it look like phayu is flirty person and can sleep with anyone. rain is simple, naive and sometime mischievous person. rain challenge phayu that he make fall in love with him but instead of that rain fell for phayu. ( i was like dude what are doing....... and what about your challenge ) here in other hand i thought phayu just playing with him and like to tease him. that'swhy his btother ask why do you tease him, one day he will run away from you. so phayu said, he is not the person who can easily run away and then he show his mobile to his brother and after that what is brother said that made me realize , i was really misunderstood him. according to his brother, ''FROM FIRST TIGER IS PREPARING FOR HIS HUNT.'' he was absolutely right and why??? i should not say this here. it would break every suspense.
their kiss scenes is really good it doesn't look like that it is their first drama. they look really experience. they have two intimate scenes which is really intense!!!!! and 2nd one was..... after watching it, i was speechless. here i should not forget their tongue kiss in this 2nd intimate scenes. literally i feel like my heart was bumping out from chest. and in 1st one, one last sentence stole my heart '' NOW, YOU ARE MY , I AM YOURS.'' wining hug and kiss make your heartbeat faster. in last episode phayu went to save rain and ready to do anything to just save him, that show how much phayu love to rain.
here i want to write more about them but i should not....., which is compile to watch you guys i write it already. just here i want to tell only thing that just give it one try, i am sure that you will like it. in fact it will make you fall in love.

YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly, I got here because of Mame, its her latest Masterpiece and Im excited.Since it was just the pilot episode, I will review it as an Ordinary BL fan. The Visuals and Chemistry of Rain and Payu, the acting, the production , cinematography, PERFECT. Just like I become a huge fan of Leo and Fiat, Im really starting to love this couple specially Payu. The story, lets see how it will going to developed per episode and since this is Mame's work some are already complaining just watching the first episode.
Some are raising an issue already about consent, what's with that big deal. Rain and Payu are fictional characters but honestly in real world, this really happen right. It will going to be a big deal if Payu continue anyway. This is Mame's style of writing, you can't do anything about it . Its her call. If you cant take it, then don't read or watch it. but honestly she is just being realistic, don't you think so///

Not a bad watch
My first foray into Thai BL and I don’t think it that bad. Haven’t even started the Sky-Prapai section so I can’t speak to that. I just want to say for pure entertainment value, it is a good watch. I didn’t think about morality or feminism. Initial thoughts were positive, I even thought Payu a good influence on Rain as he advocates responsibility and being true to oneself. Payu is commendable as he helps strangers in need, is good to his juniors and seems to be both smart and charming. He looks to be the complete package. I’m watching with English subs so I don’t know if certain things were lost in translation but I find it simply entertaining. I can see why some people are sensitive to certain aspects of the series but speaking for just myself, I really wasn’t looking for a social commentary or anything serious & I didn’t look deeply into each character.Was this review helpful to you?

Comecei rindo, terminei chorando
Love in the Air entrou na minha lista como aquele BL que eu ia assistir “só pra ver qual é” e saiu como a novela exagerada que me fisgou de um jeito quase irritante. A primeira metade, focada em Rain e Phayu, até me divertiu. Rain faz barulho demais porque não sabe lidar com nada que sente, e o Phayu desfila uma autoconfiança que beira o insuportável, e, honestamente, eu comprei esse jogo de provocações. Tem química, tem pegação sem pudor, mas também tem aquele ar de cena ensaiada de peça de escola: falas dramáticas que soam decoradas, gestos que querem transbordar sensualidade mas às vezes parecem só forçados. Mesmo assim, passei por esses tropeços porque, no fundo, esse casal me entretém.Só que foi na segunda metade que a série realmente ganhou peso. Quando Sky e Prapai apareceram, tudo mudou de tom. Sky carrega um trauma que a câmera não esconde, você sente o peso nos silêncios e nos olhares dele. E aí chega o Prapai, com pinta de bad boy pronto pra jogar charme, mas que, surpreendentemente, entende limites e oferece espaço pro Sky respirar. Essa dinâmica me pegou de jeito. Cada passo que o Sky dá pra confiar de novo, cada vez que ele permite que o Prapai chegue um pouco mais perto, acrescenta uma camada que a primeira parte da série não teve. O romance deles não é só quente, é vulnerável; não é só fanfic, é catártico.
E, claro, eu não posso falar dessa metade sem mencionar o ódio que senti pelo Gun. Toda vez que ele aparecia pra cutucar as feridas do Sky, minha paciência ia pro ralo. A maneira como ele manipula, como tenta manter controle sobre alguém que já machucou tanto, mexeu comigo num nível visceral; eu queria atravessar a tela e expulsá‑lo dali. É o vilão perfeito pra fazer a gente valorizar ainda mais o cuidado que o Prapai oferece.
Visualmente, a série ajuda muito a engolir os exageros. Fotografia bonita, direção que sabe enquadrar beijo sem cortar, cenas quentes que mostram desejo de verdade. Passa longe do “selinho tímido”, e isso dá um choque bom. Ainda assim, não escapa de diálogos rasos e situações criadas só pra agradar fandom, mas pelo menos assume sem vergonha que é um dramalhão sexy.
No fim, Love in the Air virou meu guilty pleasure porque, mesmo tropeçando em roteiro raso e falas teatrais, ele me entregou um segundo casal com peso emocional real. Sky e Prapai fizeram meu coração acelerar e justificaram cada episódio. Rain e Phayu continuam fofos no seu caos ensaiado, mas são os momentos de coragem e cura do Sky, e o cuidado às vezes atrapalhado do Prapai, que me fazem lembrar por que continuei presa a essa série, mesmo sabendo que perfeição passa um pouco longe daqui.
