Perfect For When You Need A Cute No-brainer Watch

I started this out of pure desperation because I was going through withdrawal symptoms from We Are and Your Sky. I just needed something sweet, slightly ridiculous, and with that emotional fluff to fill the void. Normally, I don’t go for dramas with 24 episodes,that’s a commitment, but the way this one split things up into 8-episode arcs per couple worked in their favor. I could mentally clock in and out without burnout.

Not gonna lie, this show gets so childish and so cliché at times, I physically had to pause to recover from the cringe. But weirdly It worked for me. Like, I’d roll my eyes, say “not this again,” and then press play anyway because I was actually enjoying it. It’s light, dumb, dramatic, comforting, all the things I wanted and didn’t want at the same time. A true guilty pleasure, except I don’t even feel that guilty.


💙 Arm & Arc

They’re the classic cliché duo, cold senior × sunshine freshman. Enemies to lovers... kind of. They start off bickering and annoying each other, and next thing you know they’re glued together and being disgustingly clingy.
Honestly, I liked their dating era way more than their chaotic beginnings.

Arc becomes Arm’s peer mentor and pursues Arm while maintaining his cold act. Like, yes he crosses some boundaries, and yes I side-eyed him more than once, but I did appreciate how Arm pushed back and didn’t just melt instantly.
But still it was a sweet story that us entertaining.

Also, the Arm-Po-Sand trio? ICONIC. Dumb, dumber, and dumbest, and I love all three with my entire heart. Their chaotic energy is unmatched. You can separate couples, plotlines, entire timelines,but not that friendship.
And Po?? That’s a man right there. He didn’t even do much but somehow stole every scene.



🐶 Yotha & Gun

Another “emotionally constipated boy falls for a human ray of sunshine” situation. Similar vibes to Arm & Arc but with more emotional repression and more ✨red flags✨.

Gun meets Yotha through Faifa (Gun’s friend, Yotha’s brother), and it spirals from there. Gun gets teased constantly, they literally refer to him as a puppy, and honestly, I felt bad about it until I realized he actually likes it?? Who am I to judge.
Faifa standing up to Yotha after the fight? That scene was so good. Gun being scared and hiding behind Faifa?? I ate that up.

But I really wish Gun didn’t forgive Yotha so fast after That Kiss with Wa. Like HELLO? I needed more groveling. Just a bit more pain.

Their dating era was cute though. Genuinely. Also: I see the vision, but “love cures trauma and turns you into a better person” okay, but why are we still doing that.

(P.S. Gun and Arm are literally the same person in different fonts. Loud, goofy, loyal. Put them in a room and it’s a competition of who can be more golden-retriever.)



🍷 Faifa & Wine

THESE TWO!!!!!!! These soft little creatures own my whole heart.

They’re both afraid of being unlovable in different ways, and the way they find each other??? Ugh. Faifa is your classic people-pleaser, always the funny friend, always brushing off his own feelings, always taking care of everyone but himself. And then there’s Wine, who’s got actual insecurities about being gay, which surprised me considering the rest of this show is basically “everyone’s queer until proven otherwise.”

I loved their first meeting, I loved their awkward phase, and I LOVED how they opened up to each other. Their emotional intimacy hit harder than I expected. I didn’t think I’d get a soft, cautious exploration of queerness here, but I did, and it was wholesome.

Protect them at all costs.




🤍 Side Couples

Pond & Sand – A very cute side thing. Pond being lowkey flirty while Sand remains blissfully oblivious.

Jet & Pun – Token straight couple in this aggressively gay universe. Honestly, they were adorable. It was refreshing to see a het couple that didn’t feel shoehorned in for drama.

Klao & Warit – Okay. At first, I was like: “Do we really need these two?” They were introduced as already-in-a-relationship and just… constantly fighting. Felt toxic, messy, and not in a fun way. But somehow, they grew on me. I don’t know when it happened, but by the time the proposal, I was lowkey cheering. The magic of drama pacing, I guess.



Final Thoughts:

Yes, it’s cliché. Yes, it’s often cringey. Yes, some of the plots feel like they were written by a lovesick 15-year-old.
And yet I liked it.
It gave me the sweet friend-group dynamics, the fluffy romance, the chaotic college vibes, and the emotional crumbs I needed to get through my We Are/Your Sky withdrawal.

Would I recommend it? Yes, if you’re okay with cheesiness, tropes, and occasional eye-rolls in exchange for major feel-good energy.

University BL with 3 sweet romances

PLOT: The welcoming and integration of new students into an engineering school is facilitated through various junior/senior activities. One group stands out in particular: the Perfect 10 Liners, a close-knit group that welcomes new students each year. Three successive couples form:
[ep 1 - 8] Arc/Arm => Force & Book
[ep 9 - 16] Yotha/Gun => Perth & Santa
[ep 17 - 24] Wine/Faifa => Mark & ​​Junior

+++ Great cast with talented and nuanced actors. Some could improve their kissing skills, but we forgive them because they're cute.
+++ Well-constructed and coherent story, without a major villain, twist, or break-up.
+++ Effective and well-paced direction.
No complaints about the OST.

### Some characters, meant to provide comic relief, are VERY over-the-top.
### The couples I found really cute during their own story arcs lose their appeal in the other characters' storylines.

=> A pleasant, heartwarming series, without any particular message, except to have a good time.

### Certains personnages, censés être la touche comique, sont TRES exagérés.
### Les couples que je trouvais très cutes durant leur arc narratif, perdent de leur saveur sur les arcs narratifs des autres.

=> Série agréable, réconfortante, sans message particulier, sauf celui de passer un bon moment.

Tight, Rich, and Real: "Perfect 10 Liners" Sets a New Standard for BL Anthologies

I laughed. I blushed. I cried. I screamed into my pillow. And then I gave it a standing ovation.
Because Perfect 10 Liners is that series. A true ensemble masterpiece that proves shorter story arcs doesn't mean shallower — it means tighter, richer, and more meaningful.

Episodes 1–8 were light, fun, and full of promise. I wasn’t immediately hooked on the central arc, but I was thoroughly entertained by the Book–Poon–JJ trio, whose comedic timing deserves a spin-off series of its own. They gave us chaos, heart, and laughter — and I would watch them in literally anything.

I didn’t expect to be this invested. But by episode 17, JuniorMark's Faifa and Wine pulled me all the way in. Faifa, the green forest of gentle emotional evolution, and Wine, the one person who didn’t just skim the surface — he read the entire book. Their intimacy? Built on glances, trust, unspoken pain, and fluttery tension.
From Faifa jumping at Wine’s caller ID to the heartbreak brewing in the background — these two carved a soft space for themselves in an already stellar cast. I will miss them for weeks.

Faifa’s emotional journey — from hesitant to vulnerable — and Wine’s quiet persistence? It wasn’t just love; it was respect in motion.
Wine is the only one who truly reads Faifa, not just sees him. Their dynamic felt like stumbling into someone’s real life — intimate, unscripted, and deeply touching.

Faifa’s panic at Wine’s caller ID, the heartbreak, the glimmers of healing… I’ll miss them more than I expected to.
Junior caught me off guard — I wasn’t sold in Cherry Magic — but here? He owns the screen.

And then there’s Gun and Yotha — the complicated heartbeat of this story.
Their stargazing scene? The glisten, not a twinkle. The kiss. The nose boop. The weight in Santa’s expression. The line delivery that stayed with me for days.
“What if I had decided to stop waiting?”
“I guess I’d go back to living a dark life alone again.”
Excuse me while I cry under a blanket.
Perth and Santa didn’t act. They lived those characters. And Santa’s last-minute casting? A stroke of fate. No one else could’ve been Gun.

By episode 10, it was clear: the switch flipped for Yotha the moment he saw Gun flustered under his teasing smirks and lingering stares. That smirk wasn’t random — it was a turning point. He saw Gun wasn’t just intrigued — he was staying. And Yotha leaned in.
From that moment on? It was game over for me.

Their chemistry? PerthSanta supremacy.
I’ve never followed a BL while it aired. They changed that. Two episodes in, and I was hooked — replaying every scene like it was my new favorite song.
Perth’s expressive restraint + Santa’s glistening vulnerability = pure magic.
The entire ensemble was incredible.

ArcArm and YothaGun teasing Faifa = sibling gold

The 3 Stooges (Arm, Sand, Po)? Too funny, too precious

WaKlao? Criminally under-screened and yet magnetic every moment

Every episode was emotionally rich, grounded in healthy communication (ep. 20? Chef’s kiss), and always layered with nuance.
And the OSTs? PERFECTION. From the main theme to each couple’s musical motif, every note knew where to hit.

Final Thoughts
Perfect 10 Liners isn't just a love story.
It's multiple love stories, told through the lens of grief, healing, growth, and joyful chaos.

It gave me healthy BL communication, iconic confessions (move over My Only 12% and Bad Buddy ep. 5), and a sincere commitment to character-driven storytelling.
It respected its runtime and its viewers. And it gave us depth without dragging, laughs without losing meaning, and romance without compromising character arcs.

If this is the new GMMTV tight-8 era, I’m ALL IN. (Fourever You 2, I’m looking at you 👀)
And honestly? It surpassed even We Are for me in terms of emotional payoff and character care.
This is how you do short-form storytelling right.
P10L just raised the bar for BL ensemble dramas — and honestly? I hope it stays there.

Arm and Arc.
Kinda cute, "my ultimate sexual fantasy is to annoy a man so much that he falls in love with me " like.
Nothing much to add.

Yotha and Gun.
Yotha is an asshole to Gun at first. I was physcally unconfortable when Gun saw Yotha and his ex kiss. But now he is really nice to him and they are lovey-dovey.

Faifa and Wine.
I wait for them since the beginning. I knew they would be my fav.
Faifa the greenest flag.
I hate Faifa familly "haha we are happy that someone like him. Because noone were right with him" Yes like you?? His familly?? Show him love??
Thanks Wine for being the only one to really love him ♥
+ Wine: "Are you okay with me being gay" Like?? Bro everyone in this group IS GAY!!

Klao and Warit
"If I'm manipulate by a beautiful man I'm where I want to be"

Didn't expect much but was left really suprised

I started watching Perfect 10 Liners , because I wanted to give ForceBook another chance. I had watched their other stuff and while it did get better, I still wasn't feeling them all too much.

The story line for ArcArm is rather simple, but the writing made it really fun to watch. Arm-Po-Sand trio were the funniest, I just kept laughing whenever they started their shenanigans. It was an absolute delight to watch them. Also I think this is the best ForceBook I've watched so far. Their scenes as an established couple are so cute and lovely and their chemistry really shines in this drama.

As I was only interested in ForceBook, I thought I'd stop watching after ep. 8, but I was curious to see more of PerthSanta so I kept watching. The pairing delivered impeccable chemistry. Their scenes as a pair were so sweet, it was a joy to watch them. Some of the plot in the YothaGun plot line was a big question mark for me, but generally, it was fine.

Then I was convinced I wasn't interested in FaifahWine (JuniorMark). I didn't really feel much for their scenes pre ep. 17 (when their arc starts). But after ep 16. I started missing the other pairings and Faifah easily became my favorite character, so I wanted him to finally get a cute bf as well and holy hell. This is a FaifahWine love post.

Faifah is easily one of my favorite characters in BL EVER. He is so beautifully complex with a story line that can only make him root for him. He showed so many admirable facets of him and also his great character growth we were allowed to be a part of. At first I didn't really like him much, because I thought he was a bit too goofy but by the last episode I was already sad that there was no more of him.

Wine at first seems to be your typical first year BL character that's a bit shy, but actually no! He's much more nuanced and understands Faifah in a way no one else ever did or ever could. They both make a beautiful pairing that balance each other well.

On top of that, I had never watched Junior and was honestly really suprised by Junior's acting. It was great to see him fill Faifah with so much life.

I am gonna miss them dearly, and before I even finished the last episode, I already wanted to rewatch the first episodes. You can't expect too crazy of a story line - it's still a Thai BL in a college setting (singing ofc included). But it was so fun to watch them all that Perfect 10 liners holds a special place in my heart, even though there are some things that made me wanna tear my hair out.

Finally a University drama done right

Overall the acting, casting, cinematography of this series is really perfect. I am not a big fan of university fluffs but they did this right with this one. The ensemble casting was done correctly for the first time where all stories got time to develop, all characters got time to shine and all of us were able to feel it.
P10L is probably the drama that is closest to real life university life so this made it more enjoyable as we get to reminiscence our own memories.
ArmArc story was very typical but the moments shined well. The only other time I have seen ForceBook was in Only Friends and I thought it would be hard for me to get rid of their characters but they truly made me believe they are ArcArm.
YothaGun on the surface level felt very basic however they showed great emotional development, character depth and mostly the phase of realization was so well made. It was worth the hype. Must have been some destiny but PerthSanta chemistry skyrocketed.
Now I never thought I would reach the FaifahWine part ever cause I tend to get bored with long series but I COULDN"T drop it. Character like Faifah is exactly what I have always wanted a BL series to explore/ Characters like him, sweet, caring, bright, cheerful, funny are often put as a side character for comedic relief but we never get to see their pain. Faifah is probably one of the most well written charcater ever made. FaifahWine is the closest to a realistic ideal couple. Going up an down and learning to take things as it is. Zero unnecessary drama.
Okay but KlaoWa stole it for me. They DELIVERED. AuoBoom delivered so hard in this. We didn't get to see much of their development however the post development scenes were amazing. They are also very realistic couples but with unnecessary drama.
MarcPoon also did a very good job. They mostly felt more like a breath of fresh air between ArcArm back and forth. Special mention to Po for making everything so much funnier. Best boy ever. Emi as Pun was a slay. We needed a girl in P10L. Fluke showed great development.
Over all they all did really amazing. All the cameos from the renowned GMMTV artists made it so much more special. I hope everyone give it a shot. It will definitely give you a good time.

Very Cute and Easy Story To Get Into

I can't believe I initially skipped this story when I saw that most (if not all) of the Enchante main cast were in this series. I honestly hated Enchante and was afraid they'd put in yet another story similar to it. But my friends encouraged me to watch it, and boy am I happy I did!

Overall, it's a very cute and silly story that has drama that doesn't stay too long. Most Thai BLs are 6-12 episodes, but please don't let the 24 episodes of this one intimidate you! Each main couple gets 8 episodes each, and because the story is easy to get into, they go by pretty quickly.

--ACTING--

I think most of the actor did pretty well. Some of them, like Force, were handed characters that ended up being fairly flat. So I can't really fault them for their acting when that's the case.
I think Faifa's and Gun's actors did the best with the silly characters. They felt VERY naturally comedic. Like, I'd genuinely be surprised if in real life they weren't similar to their characters at all. This leads to what is possibly my biggest acting gripe: Book's acting. Don't get me wrong, he did well enough. But there were times when it was grating and felt, well, forced (no pun intended). I think it has something to do with his acting juxtaposed to Force's acting. I say this because I did find myself enjoying moments when Book's character was with Sand and Po. They made me laugh quite a bit in the second to last episode! I also think it was the writing for their ship- which I will talk about more in the next section.

Sand and Pond were arguably the weakest actors and they stood out because everyone else was above average. I'd say that Sand's actor did a better job when he wasn't with Pond's character. I'm not familiar with either actor at all, but if you told me it was Poon's (Sand) first time in a romantic role let alone a BL one, I wouldn't be surprised. He was strongest when he was being silly with Arm and Po.

I started watching this for Perth (Yotha). I was a little disappointed when I saw he was playing yet ANOTHER "bad boy"/cool/suave type character. Don't get me wrong, he pulls this type of character off VERY well, but I was hoping for something different. With that being said, I really liked him as Yotha. I think the chemistry between him and Santa was very strong. I'm not sure if I'll watch their next project (Love You Teacher), but if they end up in something else, I'll watch that instead.

Faifa and Wine were my fave. I think their actors pulled the characters off VERY well. They felt natural and their chemistry was great. I loved how they looked together! If they're in another show as a pair, I'll definitely watch it.

--WRITING--

As mentioned before, this show is an easy watch. There's drama in it, where they pile it on more in the second and third arcs, but it flows very well.

I found myself enjoying a pair more than the previous pair, so the story got better and better as it went on.

I'd say the weakest story comparatively was Arc and Arm. I think that if theirs was a stand alone story, it would've been great. But the other parts are just so much more interesting that not only does they story feel a bit boring, but so does their ship after a while. I hate skipping scenes with other ships, but I did find myself skipping some of their scenes in the other parts.

I think the biggest issue is that their story is pretty typical of a Thai BL/yaoi/BL in general. It's pretty hard to connect to their characters emotionally. I feel like this is a situation where the casting of the actors helped make the characters a lot more interesting than what the writing failed to do. Like, if they were cast by random actors, I'd be even less interested to be very honest. I liked their story initially but grew bored by episode 5.

Possibly a big part of why I enjoyed YoGun's and FaiWine's stories so much more is because I found myself pleasantly surprised when I related to Yotha's and Faifa's situation with their mom. I felt their complications were quite realistic, especially in how divided they were about what happened to them growing up. I myself was The Peacemaker in the way Faifa was, so his character ended up being my favorite.

The ways in which their partners helped them felt good too. I much prefer stories when the Troubled Character's problems aren't magically whisked away by their Love Interest's arrival. The idea that love heals all wounds is one that I never cared for too much because of how it's portrayed a lot of the time. And I was quite pleased with how supportive Gun and Wine were, especially Wine.

I think out of all of the pairs, FaiWine was the most realistic one and also the most well written one. I really loved how they both grew around each other. There weren't any weird forced external drama that happens a lot in Thai BLs. The focus on internal issues worked the best here. Like, they could've done so much more with Tor's arrival but they didn't. What ended up happening was just enough for their story.

All-in-all, good pacing and good writing.

--MUSIC--

I don't pay too much to the music in these dramas. I definitely should though. So I won't linger here too long.

I believe each pair had their own unique song that was sung by the pairs' actors. I'm not sure how common this is, but I thought it was very sweet.

One trope in Thai BLs that I have come to lowkey hate is when the one character (usually the top) gets on stage with his guitar and starts singing to his love interest. It's so overdone, I just cringe at this point. But here it seems like Faifa's actor not only knows how to play guitar, but perhaps he sung the song too? It's a low bar, but this is probably the first time in a long while where I enjoyed this trope. I have seen instances where the actor very clearly has no idea how to lay guitar or even sing and because of it, it's badly edited. But it was nice here.

--PRODUCTION/CINEMATOGRAPHY--

I'd say it's pretty average coming from this company. The sets were nice but nothing outstanding. I did enjoy the use of colors a lot though, like in the freshman's rooms or with Yotha's pajamas. I'd say my favorite sets are said dorm rooms and Newton's bar.

--SUMMARY--

Overall great show, especially if you want something cute and fairly lighthearted. I rarely rewatch stuff, but I can see myself rewatching some scenes. I'm planning on watching the behind-the-scenes videos.

Give it a shot if you want!

non-serious at its finest !?

🥂 Spoiler Alert (First of all the description provided for this series is so detailed that it basically spoiler atp)

I do not have much to say regarding the flow and pacing of this series because as a viewer it is a nicely flowed series because of the episodes limit that were given so it is a very smooth watching experience for me personally.

Now, what makes this series a bit boring for me is the decision to do another engineering students trope which is a problem for me because my brain just can't stop saying "I've seen this before" from other series who done this engineering environment before. I do not know much regarding how courses in thailand universities work but couldn't they choose different faculty or something but yeah this is a more me problem than the series itself. 🛠️

the series is very straightforward in showcasing which trope and personality they're going with each couples and I have little to no problem with the pairing of Force (Arc) & Book (Arm) and Junior (Faifa) & Mark (Wine), in fact JuniorMark is my favourite pairing on this show. the characterization of those two are very nice where one compliment the other one so well, what I have a problem to digest with is Perth (Yotha) and Santa (Gun) specifically Gun, personally I just could not stand this childish character, I am so sorry 😭. I do appreciate that they give a back story as to why Gun acts like that. (and personally I would like to add that Santa does not really suit this kind of character but then again this is more to me problem than the series itself)

One last thing I would like to add is the amount of unnecessary side characters. I did have a bit of hard time try to remember which one is who but yeah its gmmtv, one thing they're going to do is adding random characters to make sure their actors have at least one project to work on. 💔

💖 Overall this is very cute series with funny jokes (most of the times) and I might rewatch it but for certain couple only.

traditional relationship tropes with a side of storytelling

the three main couples in Perfect 10 liners strictly follow their tropes: enemies to lovers, bad boy meets good boy, and introvert + extrovert. As far as storyline goes, I thought YothaGun’s was the most engaging. Junior and Mark’s acting made FaifaWine’s story cute and interesting as well. ArcArm’s story was sort of slow and boring to me. while Force and Book are lovely, I don’t see the same kind of chemistry between them as PerthSanta and JuMark.
This was my first BL with SO many different main and side couples. I was sort of distracted by the 0% probability that so many gay relationships would exist in a smallish friend group in the Engineering major at what looks like a small college 😅
regardless, the personal story arcs of the characters and the romance between partners had me consistently watching every week.
I will say that trying to rewatch it has been too boring for me, and it doesn’t have the same spark when you already know what’s going to happen. But the first watch was fun, relaxing, and time well spent getting to know the characters and actors ⚙️

We just watch and we don't judge... that hard lol no, I did have a good time

Just a silly goofy show. The key is to not take everything seriously to have a good time and just go with the flow. Very much those dramas that relies on the actors' chemistry and the characters' likability because the writing isn't the best lol. But I gotta say, this format doesn't really work for me. I wish the stories were happening simultaneously instead and just smoothly intertwine because it felt like the succeeding couple after the first were fighting for screen time. I said this about "Fourever You" as well and this time, it got worse because not only we got three main couples in here but we also got two side couples (and one of the twins lmao) in the friend group. Of course, everyone ended pairing up (we just watch and we don't judge lol). To me, the third couple didn't have enough time to have as many moments/developments as the others had because now, the established couples still appear during their story. Not gonna lie, I also feel that way because my personal favorite story ended up being Faifa and Wine's lol.

Personally, I just like the potential of Faifa and Wine's story. The introvert one and the one who's friends with everybody and happy-go-lucky teaching the other about relationships and love? And there's a notebook wiyh a checklist? Both of them gets each other to open up and show vulnerability and growth? I just eat that shit up. Now did it go where I wanted to with the writing or depthness? Not really lmao. But at that point, my expectations were not high but I was hopeful. I thought their story which connects to Yotha as well could have been so much better. But, ya know, they were kissing already before the developments and moments I wanted lol I mean I guess that's my problem with all the three stories. I just wanted MORE before we got there. Don't get me wrong, I did feel that giddy, kicking my feet in the air feeling when Wine and Faifa kissed for the first time. I think Junior and Mark just gained a fan here because I'm just buying their chemistry.

Now, Perth and Santa. Everyone in GMMTV who decided to pair these two up are patting each others' backs the second those two did their first scene together lol. It's the chemistry!! And I just think Perth is good at the "heart eyes" lol he just is! I had the same complaints for Yotha and Gun's story. They could have done so much more with Yotha's backstory. Wanted more from the writing always but I gotta say, and they always do this with anything marketed as "grumpy-sunshine," let's make the supposedly sunshine character act normal lol pls. Stop infantalizing them oh my god. I guess all 3 had these problem but the way Gun acted sometimes... it's too much. Not him actually calling himself "sunshine" so many times. I just don't like that, I'm sorry lol now this is not the worst thing I've seen because believe me, I've seen worse in other thai BLs but if we could just eliminate baby-ing the one half of a gay adult couple, that would be nice. I'm not asking for realism in a thai BL, but just normal-er pls lmao

Arc and Arm's story is my least favorite personally just because it's hard for me to see the romance in there, where how why when did they like each other?? A better writing would've helped. BUTTT this is my favorite Force and Book characters I've watched. Granted, I've only seen them in Only Fans lol but still, I really like them better in here.

Yeah, this was your typical cheesy corny BL show. Sorry, for always complaining about wanting a better writing (I was holding back on saying negative things because I'm scared people think I'm being a hater tbh) but I think it's good to enjoy this kind of BLs but also be critical because I do want it to get better 😊 So to be clearer, I had some laughs and kicked my feet in the air and I had a good time overall.

Liked it! Hoping for season 2.

I really liked this series, i hope they will make a season 2 with new pairs and the old ones .

As you can expect from GMM-TV the actors did a great job. The only negative i can say about this drama is that when they try to make it extra funny by extreme acting it only annoys me and i don't think it is funny at all. The ones that did it in this drama were Book, Poon and JJ.
The most funny moment were the moments with subtle jokes and sounds.

I like all the couples except Marc / Poon, Marc doesn't show much emotions when acting and i feel no chemistry between him and Poon.

I think i will watch this again in the future, i definatly will if there comes a second season.

When the sides are better than the main

Let's get into this. This series suffered the same fate as Fourever You. Placing popular actors as the main draw who then become the most forgettable. The series as a whole dealt with various issues of love, abandonment, becoming self accepting, true friendship and maturity.

ArcArm.
Their arc lasted the longest and had it not been determination to see it through to the end, it would have been dropped. Friends, close friends, should not act as lovers on film. I stand by this deduction after enduring numerous episodes of tantrums, bad acting and no chemistry whatsoever. The usual enemies to lovers fell very flat and tedious to endure. I will say aging Arc out of the school environment was a good move and allowed the passage of time to develop the other characters.

YothaGun.
This is where the series gains traction and moves in the right direction. Yotha a hot head introvert had a lot to overcome and with the help of Gun does this almost realistically. I say almost because I can not believe a child emotionally and physically stifled for love from a parent can so readily accept and embrace said parent with no residual ill will. Gun shows up and continues to forgive his bad behavior all in the name of love. With the help of Arm, he begs forgiveness and is basically forgiven within the same episode. Let's not forget Gun's parents said "he is the sunshine of the world". The difference between the two feelings can be easily felt. There is a radiance that emits from Gun when he's happy. Gun/Beagle is as loyal as they come. Though the over the top theatrics when he is in beagle mode could have done with a little dimming.

FaiWine
This is the healthiest relationship of all but again with its own drawbacks. Fai being used by a pawn feels emotionally forgotten within the entire family unit. This transfers into being a people pleaser. Wine, who recently became self aware of his sexual preference, becomes his favorite person. Fai offers to teach Wine about love and romance as he believes Wine is still in love with his previous crush. They are drawn to each other, though it it Wine that orchestrates their continued meeting. The notebook is purposely left at the dorm, thereby ensuring the lessons continue without and end in sight. Here Fai learns the meaning of special. While communication is key to a healthy relationship there is a thing as too much talking. The step by step discussion of every detail of their coming together weighed a little heavy at times. This is off set by Fai's ability to make a funny comment to either diffuse a bad situation or hide his feelings. They are perfectly matched and Wine fills the gap left by a cruel mother. She is again forgiven too easily. Fai's nature would not allow otherwise.

PondSand
They met. They felt the attraction. They got together. They stayed together. No drama. No issues. What was the purpose of them being here? Don't get me wrong. I love them as a couple. I love that Pond made Sand feel special with his dumb bunny thoughts. Not everyone can be in a relationship that is intellectually mismatched and this could have been explored more. The only hindrance with this pairing is that Marc has a standoffish way of acting with limited facial reactions. This is the closest I've seen him with anyone as he always comes across as a bro and not a lover. If they can bridge this gap, I'd love to see more as Poon is a delightful character on and off the screen.

KlaoWarit
The side couple who stole the show. This couple is the meat of the series and shows the most growth throughout. The anger, frustration, devotion, reconcilliation, maturity and eventually proposal was what tied the entire series together. Their interactions are as real as can be. Klao, a hot head jealous idiot at the beginning, turned his life around for love. Warit with the patience of a saint held on and was rewarded with a love that matched his. Klao also proved to be a friend worth having. Without knowing the reason of a fight that Gun was in, jumps in without a second thought even though at the time they were arch enemies. The passion between KlaoWarit surpassed all the others and realistically displayed with every look. As an onscreen couple for many years, their bond can be felt almost immediately on meeting. The proposal made my eyes moist when I took into consideration all that they endured to reach to this point.

On viewing the bonding between Yotha and Faifah at the end, I'm a little sad that Newton wasn't included. Though older, he too must have felt hurt. Watching this as a whole, it was not bad at the ending. The final scene ended perfectly. The series was not perfect by any means. How many times is Arc is going to tell Arm he wants him in every aspect of his life? How many times characters are cute? How many times over the top asinine behaviors unbecoming a young adult is displayed? Does Arm speak on shout or only with Arc? Irritating. While the actions of Yotha and Faifah were a direct result of past trauma by their mother, this was dealt with superficially and all is forgiven and well again. The extras were used like a pop up service. Except AouBoom, they all kissed like their lips have castity belts on.

It is worth the watch and for the most part entertaining. Re-watch no. Thai productions can be shortened and still be fun. Something that eludes their production team. Suggestion: Watch the first 10 episodes at 2x speed, nothing will be missed and be more enjoyable. Lesson learned the hard way.
