Skip this if you will
The title says it all. I was holding my patience until the 11th episode and it broke the camel's back. The preview showed that Day lost his memory again. I was so pissed when I watched it. I know amnesia ad have seen it in a lot of dramas. But this is getting excessive. I don't usually write reviews but this drama really ticked my wrong nerve. The cast is pretty and that is the only reason people would watch it. The acting looks completly staged. The actors are not rookie but the acting in this is terrible. I know visuals influence the drama slightly but that is all that was nice in this drama. if the actors had been more into the show and expressed the true feelings of the character then it wouyld be on my rewatch list. The story line is amazing but the presentation is straight up taken from the dumpster. Save yourself from the misery and don't watch it. Choose any show except this one. It would be worth your time. Skip this thing.Was this review helpful to you?
whyyyyyyy...
wanting to watch this after the series ends but I'm too bored to wait & I'm too lazy to wait for the book4 to be translated into English so tried watching it since I missed Day x Itt/Brick already & everyone~~Trigger Warning: There are physical violence and toxic relationship scenes in this series we're halfway through so if you're not into these kinds of drama better not watch as it'll affect your review.
- if you don't want to cringe in the series esp. Ep1 and you've read the novel just think that you're watching a whole new series that you haven't known. That's what I did while watching ep2 & so on. I've felt the cringe on ep1 as I've been comparing it to the novel. Which is a no-no. Pls. stop comparing the two so that you can have a blank slate while watching.
- there are scenes where the acting is a bit off and awkward, idk just my personal opinion. Some scenes are great especially when Day & Itt is only in the scene, Cried a bit too when I felt the emotions of Frank and Long but when everyone was in it, Ghad, I tell you it's chaos. Also, some actors lack the emotions/feelings in their roles. I know they can do better //crieeee//
- Again don't compare it to the novel. yes, it is adapted from the 3rd book (Love Syndrome III) but I'll tell you the book has a heavy, drama, dark feel whereas the series will leave you laughing 5555+ It feels different in a way.
- NielNik couple makes the series a bit more in the funnier side. A lot of people weren't satisfied with the actors but damn Kok's acting is just what I expected Nik's character will be 555+
- Hoping for more & more interaction between LongFrank/ DayItt I feel like it's still a bit on the surface & I still want more DayItt. Can't wait for ep7 to air. I can feel their chemistry & I still want more. I'll be rooting for this couple!!. (This'll be edited in the future)
- Nong Rossi is soooo cuteee!!!!
- I sometimes don't like the blocking, the transition & the way the camera pans at times. Hoping the next episodes will be improved.
- It's nice to see everyone having different jobs - Ball being a flight attendant(?), Meen an online seller/influencer, Nik (Medical field(but in the novel, he is helping Niel in their business tho, so IDK)
- I LOVE Itt's parents too! the way they love Day & at the same time I felt their love and worry for Itt.
P.S. not the final rating. will still edit the rating until the end of the series.

dropping this
Overall: There are valid reasons why people write/read/watch/enjoy FICTIONAL toxic/abusive relationships which I'm not going to get into. Day constantly abusing Itt along with other things has made me drop this series. FYI, this is based on the third book in a series - I have not read the books and believe that series should be able to be watch/enjoyed without knowing about the source material so that is how I'm reviewing this series. Aired on WeTV. Later re-released on Viki https://www.viki.com/tv/39900c-love-syndrome-iiiContent Warnings: fight scene/beaten up, violence, blood, intimate partner violence, manipulation, manhandling (likely more content warnings will happen in future episodes)
What I Liked
- Itt's parents
- their friends
- that ep 1 fight scene was just plain fun
- how a former girlfriend is not a cliche evil character
- skinny black jeans and Day's abs
Room For Improvement
- ep 1 Itt screaming about cake for half the episode, I understand that Day likes Itt to rely on him so it's not like he's a victim in all this but the cake screaming was super annoying
- the production should not expect viewers to have read the previous 2 books and understand the characters/story, what we saw was Itt being annoying in episode 1 and then being constantly abused and crying in the next few episodes, this does not make for enjoyable viewing
- scenes dragged on, they spent way too long in the hospital
- a parade of characters in episode 2 made it difficult to know who was who and what their relationship was to one another
- nonsense things like Itt spending multiple days in a hospital for fainting, why were Day and Itt sleeping on couches at their house???
- end of episode 3 looked good but then the beginning of episode 4 skipped over that cliffhanger
- missing and difficult to understand subtitles
- ballad song for the intro/outro was odd given the tone of the series

Enjoyed this series very much.
I enjoyed this series very much, great story about revenge, forgiveness, finding happiness, and dealing with hard times, It has many layers to the story. It's not for everyone, but I did love it overall, especially the ending wedding. It is a sister series to Forgotten Nights, which I also loved, but once again it's not for everyone since we all have different tastes. It's sad people truly do not understand the story or characters. I would recommend and rewatch as all the couples are beautiful and all deal with different issues and grow over the episodes, you have to understand this is part of a 3 storyline series. I do look forward to the next chapter. The characters and acting were good and they all had chemistry. It was nice to see that they should have different levels of personality and couples coming together. Showing us the different types of coupling that happen. It surprises me that a few are being haters for this series when clearly they don't get the whole overall storyline, but I would hope people see what is really there and how real this can be for the true value. I give it 10 for showing a great story and actors.Was this review helpful to you?

So hard to even rate this . So much cringe 🤣 but I also couldn't stop watching mostly because of Mac Nan. They're no Pete Vegas 😆 but they were my only entertainment after the rest of the show just turned out to be bland and way too cutesy.I mean I was there to see some messed up shit and maybe some proper NC scenes between Day Itt but literally the whole plot involved Day trying to hate on Itt and regaining his memory.
Also, in the beginning Itt is the guy who everyone hates because he keeps acting entitled and keeps asking Day to do things for him and it feels like he's an asshole, but you know that's not what it felt like to me.
Basically he was definitely being manipulated by Day who admitted it! That he wants Itt to get so attached to him that he can never leave.
And then, spoiler alert, when the scene where Day beats the shit out of Itt and definitely rapes him, that was the implication right? it was really well done for sure.
it's just everyone on the show is just TRASH LOL
DAY: Manipulated and VIOLENTLY BEAT UP HIS SO CALLED BF.
ITT : Didn't do shit for Mac even when the poor guy was begging for his help.
Was pretty much involved in letting his friend Gear roofie or whatever it was actually unclear to me, and have definitely nonconsensual sex with Night , Day's actual blood brother.
Mac: Tried to rape Itt.
Nan : Forced Mac to be his human slave.
and this is basically all the main characters!
but hot damn that last episode, Non looked fine af! Everyone actually looked really good in the finale but there were still no actual details about what Gear did to Day's brother Night or why they're even together after he clearly must have done something bad to him for sure.
Rating 6 and not lower because I guess I just needed some mindless cringe and I was mostly just hate watching at first.
But whatever, just going to rate a little bit higher for Mac and Nan, the couple who don't even know what the word 'red flag' means and are definitely color blind like me. and actually pretty much everyone is, but that part is fine lol I just wished it was a little more ... less bland and cute.
like something so DARK would happen and you'd expect it to get darker and get somewhere , but then some damn boring af cute scenes between Day Itt. which frankly, were just SO BAD.
Like I love when BL shows do cute right.
like Gene Sib, or Sky Prapai, or Leo Fiat. Even Cutie pie has some great cute scenes that are adorable ! But they were just not good at all at it.
so it's not a cutesy romance and it's not a full on KP level MESSED UP either. it's just kinda meh . and that one villain ffs he was literally even more garbage than anyone else.

what the heck am I watching?
so I didn't even finish the first episode. because the acting is bad and the stupid fight scenes, I can't even with this show I gave up right away. at first I was excited to start watching the show but then once I got into it I instantly was disappointed. they need to remake the show. also I'm not a really big fan of Frank's roll in this he has seriously bad mood swings. so would I recommend this show to anybody? No! if you don't want to be disappointed like I was don't watch the show. Thank youWas this review helpful to you?

This story is related to Unforgotten Night, if you liked the show, you might want to check this story too.
This BL is one of the anticipated projects of this month. The story follows Day who is recovering after a serious accident. His boyfriend Itt blames himself for the accident and wants to take care of Day who has amnesia.
The problem is Day is a different person from who he was before the accident. The kind, caring boyfriend Itt once knew is no longer there. Can Itt help him get his memories and turn him back to the person he used to be?

Why is it so boring and toxic at the same time.
Watching the first episode I was hyped, I was searching for a BL were both partners are horrible and therefore perfect for each other. I wanted to watch something absolutely ridiculously toxic while shutting off my sense of morality. But after the accident, it was just Day treating Itt like shit and we got some weird drama on top of that. It got boring really fast. It was toxic and dramatic, but not in a fun way.Also, why do we never get to know what happened between Day, Itt, Night and his boyfriend? Why is Itt so obsessed with cake? WHAT IS THE BACKSTORY???? One of the reasons why I watched this, because of the "second couple", where one is kidnapped by the other. But there were only like 5 scenes about them and I want to know more, it seems very interesting. I honestly don't know why I even watched this....

DAY
Love Syndrome III is a dark, emotional BL exploring trauma, memory loss, and obsessive love. With intense performances and bold storytelling, it’s gripping but controversial. Not for the faint-hearted—trigger-heavy, raw, and unforgettable. A flawed yet powerful watch If you're looking for a soft, feel-good BL—this is not it. But if you're open to a dark, emotional rollercoaster with complex characters, Love Syndrome III may grip you. It's flawed, controversial, but undeniably memorable.Was this review helpful to you?
Kinda good in some ways
Script could have been better. Also long pauses between dialogues is awkward. But this show introduced me to Longshi Lee and now I am a die hard fan. He is absolutely amazing actor. Also must mention about the actor playing his brother. Wow he is the first actor in any thai BL show that I saw with acting skills like he is acting in theatre or in some Oscar awarded international movie. Very natural genuine acting. His name is Rossi Nonthakorn Chatchue !!!Was this review helpful to you?
Make your own opinion
I took a lot of time to watch it. No lie let me tell you with the trailer details my expectations weren't too high.Instead when watching this, I was filled with curiosity:
1) How this duo will make me go crazy humm yes you heard it crazy with a lot of sweetness, high desire tension around the air no need for an explicit scene just that vibe. yes, we got just a little scene within.
2)How sweet, sad, and happy I can be?
What about the challenges? are we going to see the go-around come back around? like recovery and losing process for both partners?
3)How far the circle of loving you or not will go?
Now my opinion let me be brief :
it was well (reason for 7/10) why? you may ask because it was filled for me with some missing scenes like: what happened before that event(you know what I am talking about humm) when going abroad with his brother what happens there? how did he plan to get back at him (I am talking about having a clean and details explanation) Short be clear because that part make me so confused no I don't want to use my imagination because it has an open imagination and it will not answer my questions how the ended up liking each other. we can feel some rushed about it but some far so good we have some love, pain, joy and etc.
NB: Good Ending ❤️

A lot of people will disagree just looking at all the reviews I’ve seen but to be honest I think this was a good drama. Some parts of the story were a little iffy and the script could have been a little better but overall the actors and the concept really make this great. You can pretty much understand the concept of this story and where each episode is going. I like how unlike many others you don’t know how the next episode or rest of the story is gonna play out. The story overall is a 8/10 there’s room for improvement but is not by any means bad. I came at this drama with a mindset of “oh it’s not gonna be good since the rating isn’t great” just to come out of this really enjoying the series. It’s made my heart clench so many times and I don’t feel like this often with series but it really pulled at the heart strings. I feel like this series can be a hit or miss depending on the person but was a hit for meWas this review helpful to you?
