so fun and stupid and lovely
I love this show. It's very entertaining and the characters are extremely well thought out and developed from the jump which is nice.I am a Latte appreciater bc he reminds me the most of friends of mine and also shows the most heart in the world.
Also one of those shows where I like the dynamics so much that I don't have a definitive end game couple in mind, and that's rare in bls.
Probably my favourite parts are how sitcomy it is which makes the characters very lovable but not stuck into one role and how sex positive it is.
This feels very unique and fresh in the thai bl space and I absolutely love this take on things. Especially the very natural weaving of different sexualities and crushes without unnecessary angst about it. This is what queer shows should be (but I still love the classic bls for what they are as well).
Lastly, peak's endless bi-panic is the highlight for me.

Finally, a good progressive BL
I thoroughly enjoyed this show. It had some great progressive scenes that made me immensely happy to watch. I loved how educational it was and how non-toxic it protrayed intimacy.The characters were greatly varied, humans with flaws, but not in a way where you cannot understand them. All their growth and development was organic and gradual. It is never boring, and the comedy relievers hit the spot as they should.
Great pacing in the story. The acting could maybe need some polishing in the more emotional scenes, but overall good performance from them all both mains and sides. Their respective love stories are very believable, and they portray the love not just through words but also body language.
I will be back to rewatch, especially for Almond and Latte, because that couple captured my attention and I adore their love-story.

coppia Latte Almond promossa, coppia Peak-Thanwa bocciata
La coppia Latte-Almond e tutte le situazioni che si creano attorno a questa coppia mi piacciono tantissimo e sono anche abbastanza realistiche (la curiosità e i timori per la prima volta di Almond, la mentalità aperta e rispettosa di Latte). Ci sono diverse scene sicuramente molto didascaliche relative a sessualità e relazioni, che sono davvero una boccata d'aria fresca tra tante serie che invece romanticizzano relazioni tossiche. Ci sono anche molte scene divertenti che strappano qualche risata, ad esempio il divertente imbarazzo di Latte e Almond la loro prima volta. Purtroppo l'altra coppia, Peak-Thanwa, e tutte le situazioni che si creano attorno a questa coppia non mi sono piaciute per niente. Mancanza di comunicazione, comportamenti incomprensibili, poi tutto il dramma del matrimonio combinato che sembra un problema enorme fin quasi alla fine della serie e che poi si risolve in 5 minuti con il padre di Peak assolutamente accomodante e comprensivo.Was this review helpful to you?
Horny Lovely Boys
At first glance, this story might seem a little bit repulsive to follow. Specifically after the audience saw that two of the main characters seemed to have a questionable attitude.One of them being a coward who ran away from his problems at home, while the other seemed like to sleep around. But if you pushed through the first few episodes, you'll see that it's not the case. I think the writer wants to make the audience jump into the wrong conclusion to make them realize how society's prejudice can harm innocent people's reputation. This series is actually thick with family and friendship dramas. With of course, BL romance as its main ingredient.

Educación sexual y diversión
Cualquier historia que busque hacer educación sexual me parece un acierto. Creo que podemos hacer narrativas disfrutonas mientras buscamos un fin que no solo sea expresivamente artístico, sino también de contenido social.Hay varias escenas que, si estuvieran en castellano, usaría sin dudar en talleres de educación sexual.
- La escena del grupo de educación sexual con los distintos tipos de juguetes y hablando de consentimiento.
- La escena de Lukpeach hablando de cómo difundir contenido sin consentimiento es mezquino y un delito.
- La escena de sexo entre Almond y Latte, siendo divertida, pero mostrando cosas que pueden pasar.
- Los momentos de Almond preguntando a Peak y Thanwa sobre cómo tener sexo la primera vez y cómo centran toda la discursiva hacia el consentimiento y cómo este se puede retirar una vez dado.
- Latte mostrando que una plurisexualidad no implica acostarse con cualquier persona.
Hay tantas escenas que me quedaría una lista super larga.
En cuanto al guion, pues eso, una narrativa disfrutona. Siento que muchas veces Jaonine y Nokia se cargan la serie a sus espaldas, lo cual es una pena para los personajes de Seng y Best, pero es que Peak llega a ser insufrible muchas veces.
En cualquier caso, si deciden tocar a la puerta de estos chicos, quiero su opinión.
