We Are

Seriously WATCH IT

If you love watching the GMMTV actors, this show is for you.
I won’t spoil any of the details just watch It
So many giggles, so many smiles so many awwww moments a few tears lots of love and sexy Thai men
What more could you want 🤷🏻‍♀️

I love every actor
They tried to give everyone equal airtime which I love
Pond and Phuwin always have the right chemistry 2 of my favs

Aou and Boom I thought they were just a friend like couple until episode 11 aired and DANG I didn’t know they had that kind of chemistry ( hopefully we see more in the future because I love Aou)

Marc & Poon are a new couple they need a show with lead roles I like them together ( we need to see them more)

Winny & Satang are cute together (Winny has really grown on me he is such a cutie pie )

GMMTV we need more Aou❤️Boom Winny❤️Satang and Marc❤️Poon

I LOVE IT.

I was so deppressed last week and then i choose to binge watch current available episode of We Are (Yes, I've been marinate it for awhile) and than BAMMM suddenly life's feel worth living again The plot actually quite simple (which i really love, cause i don't like heavy stuff). And the comedy it's top tier! Kinda make me wants to rewatch Fish Upon The Sky huehehee. And the fact that they almost got the same cast got the nostalgia poin up to 10! The character that got my love most is Kaofang, i think he put a spell on me you guys! I never really got drawn to Boom's character! But in here he so charming <3 ehem back to serious bussiness, the acting its getting better i think. The OST its on repeat! This series have not been finish yet but i can't wait for their next project! Yes you can say i'm being greedy!! HEHE.

Great Cast. Simple Story. University Life. Falling in Love

I've read and heard many disparaging remarks about Phuwin and Pond's acting ability or lack thereof, so I want to briefly touch on that. Bullsh*t. They are both great actors at least by Thai standards. Acting is craft open to interpretation so I am definitely not pushing my opinions down anyone's throat.

I did read one review that said Phuwin relies on acting tricks. I've taken acting classes and I've seen many a series or a movie where even the finest actors awarded with high acting awards use tricks. Its part of the business and its also something directors direct actors to do to get their vision across. Is it murky. Depends on your own take.

Unless a person is aware of foreign acting classes and what and how they teach or what they are expected to convey via workshops and director notes or writer input one can not actually judge. But again it is only opinions.

About We Are. This is a simple story and even the simplest of story have complexity. Each couple here have a certain dynamic.
PhumPheem: They are not in a relationship yet. But their attraction is evident. It's simple. With the appearance of Title as Kluen we will see.
QToey: A seret backstory where their love started without even meeting with one having more information than the other even if it's not a wealth of information. WINNYSATANG are delivering a great chemistry and their acting improve with each episode.
TanFang: This one for me is the worse because one seems less than caring and the other cares too much. They are a good ship so I hope their on screen coupling becomes more than one sided. Tan is so over the top. He's hilarious. While Fang is very aloof.
ChainPun: Nothing much just a couple of intense stares and ear nibbling. Cute but they are not getting enough screen time.

These are my opinions and mine alone. I shall not argue about them with anyone. It's an enjoyable series. But it is GMMTV I wouldn't expect Shakespeare or something more deep. It is Thai BL so it is what it is.

The perfect romantic comedy.

I am not a fan of comedy, because most of the times when they mak a comedy they try to hard to make it funny. The best comedy is like this one, when it is hilarious just because of simple funny sounds, remarks and gestures.

This isn't a complicated story, but for me that is not always nessasary, a simple story can be so refreshing from time to time.
This is just a simple drama about love, family and friendship. The friendship these guys have is so heartwarming, i loved it!

For me Tan and Fang stole the show. The first episodes Tan anoyed me a bit, but from the moment he and Fang got together i adored him. They were so adorable together, i loved it!!

Q and Toey were also good together, chemistry is not great but good enough to make them work. The serious Q combined with the happy and energetic Toey was great. How Q softened and loosened up bit by bit because of Toey.

Pond and Puwin are just great together, the chemistry is very good between them.

The least interesting couple for me is Marc and Poon, i am not very impressed by their acting (also in Perfect 10 liners) and there is hardly any chemistry between them..

This was the second time watching this drama and i will definatly watch it more times in the future. It's just a great feel good drama.

The simple life of cute university students

"We Are" is a slice-of-life drama, a drama that some may describe as "healing" content. The image that comes to mind when thinking about it, is a river, something that flows naturally and steady, without any huge obstacles, that is relaxing to watch. I am writing this so you don't go into "We Are" with the wrong expectations: it is a lot of silly fun at times, but it's more of a drama that simply wants to make you feel good.
Its whole plot can easily be summarized in a few words: two groups of friends connect with each other, go on small everyday adventures, and some of the friends fall in love with each other and have a lot of fun. So yes, no huge problems that stand in their way, instead you watch some great friends live their life and find their happiness along the way.
Now whether you will enjoy this drama or not depends very much on what you want to get out of it, what your expectations are. I started watching right before it had ended and binged all the episodes within a few days. I am the type of person who loves some fluffy content and who doesn't mind a more relaxed type of drama, and thus all of "We Are" very much appealed to me.
So what did I like? The positive portrayal of the friend group, the way they are so supportive of each other and their happiness. How even in their teasing you can see the fondness they feel for each other. Soft moments of understanding and romance that get mixed with the silly humour of some young guys who have known each other for some time. Some chaotic moments that end in more laughter. Great chemistry between the partners in each couple. The way that each couple feels different from each other: the teasing type of relationship, the lovey-dovey relationship, the slowly blooming type of relationship, a cat that falls in love with his puppy.

If you are the type of person who needs something positive in their life, something to lift you up when things get dark, I think this is the perfect type of drama for you. Just follow these friends along on their ride through university life, through their personal life, and it will give you a well deserved distraction, a massive boost of happiness.

DE LO MEJOR DE GMMTV!!

Siendo totalmente honesta, esta serie se ganó mi corazón por mucho. Toda la historia está tan bien contada, y a pesar de que no hay drama, los pequeños momentos donde vemos momentos amargos son bien estructurados y lo solucionan en un par de minutos. Esta serie te hace fantasiar entre sí es verdad o no que las amistades sinceras y honestas existen, al igual que un amor verdadero sin toxicidad; todo es perfecto. Me encanta el hecho de que no le hayan agregado drama innecesario, ya que lo que destaca en esta serie es su dulzura. Los ost de las parejas son fáciles y adictivas de escuchar. El cast lo hizo increíble y quede impresionada con las actuaciones (especialmente con Phuwin y Boom) ya que supieron transmitir tan bien lo que sus personajes sentían (en ciertos aspectos me llegue a sentir identificada con Fang) y el hecho de conectar con los personajes y actores hace que la experiencia sea más enriquecedora, incluso los actores se toman el tiempo de pensar en el más mínimo detalle (un ejemplo son los cambios de escenas donde los amigos se ven detrás y Tan cuida que Fang no se golpeé en su cabeza) a pesar de no ser enfocados, se centran en el más mínimo detalle. La cinematografía y la calidad al igual que el juego de colores dentro de la serie es algo agradable de ver porque no te cansas de mirar. Debo de agradecer a la GMMTV por traernos esta serie ¡¡lo mejor de la GMMTV de este año!!!

cute, wholesome and silly. what is there not to love?

I really had a great time watching We Are on a weekly basis. Every week, I was looking forward to the next episode just to see my stupid little guys again.

What I liked:
- What We Are does best are character interactions or the characters in general. I love all of them, even the characters with less screentime. Even outside of the couples the characters have amazing dynamics and interaction and it was just so much fun to see everybody talking to everybody. The characters are just one big friend group in the end and it really shows.
- All four of the couples were very strong. Tan/Fang was my personal favorite but I enjoyed all of them alot. The dynamic of Tan and Fang is just so insanely good and I had a huge grin on my face everytime they were on screen. Phum/Peem had the most screentime as the main characters and even though I was not sure how to feel about the whole "slave" thingy in the first two(?) episodes they really came back around fast for me. I wasn't really interested in Q/Toey as a couple but after they actually got together I really enjoyed their scenes as well. Chain/Pun were just amazing stand-alone characters but even as a couple (which we only got to see for a little bit) I really liked them.
- The whole f*cking vibe of the show is just soooo good. It just makes me feel better. Watching this big friend group falling in love and having a great time. God. I miss them.

What I disliked:
- I have to be very nitpicky to think of anything I didn't like but I guess some scenes felt a little repetitive towards the end.

The story of We Are is very simple and I personally really like that it doesn't try to be something it shouldn't be. Everyone who likes a good time: WATCH IT!!!!

Not just a BL - FOCUS IS FRIENDSHIP

This might be one of my favourite bl dramas, definitely from GMMTV. I liked that it didn't have some deep mafia or fantasy plot, whilst I love them (Trapped is legit my fave bl ever), sometimes you need a nice sweet simple plot so you can focus on the characters and their relationships. I have seen a fair bit of criticism around the pacing, and to be honest, I'm not sure I agree. I think if this show was supposed to be a simple BL, then the pacing is a valid concern, but I saw this show as being about the friendship group itself and how they support each other in finding love. With this mindset, the pacing makes a lot more sense, especially considering they need to showcase the story of four couples. Some might see Phum and Peem's storyline as being too long, but I think it did its job as a contrast to Toey and Q and Tan and Fang perfectly. Peem was focusing on his art rather than throwing his university degree away to fall in love like we often see in GMMTV, Q told him from the get go that he needs to work out how he feels and he was doing that just at a slower pace because it wasn't his main concern at the moment, it just felt like they were in the talking stage for slightly longer which happens sometimes. The friendships were healthy, the relationships were healthy, no unnecessary toxicity that GMMTV likes to throw in sometimes. I loved it. Could the acting have been a bit better? Perhaps. But as someone who has been watching BLs for years now, I enjoyed the acting and found myself replaying so many scenes to laugh at (something I rarely do).

I think the show was supposed to act as an almost reset and introduction for these couples, AouBoom in particular, who have skyrocketed since this show. It's nice to be able to just stick a show on and enjoy it without having to watch them suffer trauma every single episode.

If you're looking for a straightforward BL drama, then you might not love this as much as I did, but if you want a show about friendships akin to that of Friends, How I Met Your Mother, and the like, then this is perfect. It has become a comfort show at this point purely for the friendships. It features university students simply being university students, and I loved that it focused on the art students rather than engineering for once and didn't make it seem like a throwaway degree.

"We Are" is an exceptional BL drama that captivated me from start to finish. The storytelling is masterfully crafted, ensuring that not a single minute is boring. I found myself completely absorbed in the plot, to the point where I never felt the need to skip any scenes. The drama maintains a perfect pace, with each episode building upon the last in a satisfying manner.

The music in "We Are" deserves special mention. The soundtrack complements the narrative beautifully, enhancing the emotional impact of key moments. It's clear that a lot of thought went into selecting and scoring the music, as it fits seamlessly into the story and adds an extra layer of depth to the viewing experience.

The acting in "We Are" is nothing short of outstanding. The actors deliver their performances with such authenticity and passion that it's easy to forget you're watching a scripted drama. Their chemistry is palpable, making the romantic and dramatic scenes all the more engaging. Each character feels fully realized, with their own distinct personalities and arcs, contributing to the richness of the story.

In summary, "We Are" is a top-tier BL drama that excels in every aspect. From its compelling story and perfect pacing to its emotive music and stellar acting, it delivers everything you could ask for and more.
