Love (X) (2025)

Oh My Gosh?!

I got roped in by a TikTok clip of Sunny & Namnung but the Love Triangle had me staying to wait who'll choose who.

I feel so sorry that Tod didn't get chosen even though he was so welcoming and nice to everyone. ALSO THAT BODY? OML.

Mat was too quiet for me. He's the hardest to guess who he likes. At first I thought He wants Junsu then he chose Mill then he picked that in the end.

Asse is Asse, I love my guy! A shy boy indeed, a good pair with Cherry.

Time is, I was so sure he'll pick Sunny until he chose someone in the end.

Junsu, WAH MY KOREAN BABY. He's like a lost child on the show.

Mill & Joy? Didn't expect that from Joy but she rang my gaydar for sure. From the moment Mill walked over? Yeah girly was gone gone for her.

Hats off to the show, the makers, and the contestants! :))))

The best reality dating show ever! Actually, it's not even about dating or love, but more about discovering yourself, following your feelings and exploring the love. Love really knows no boundaries. I was super amazed by the show and its whole concept, and truly today is the world where love can exist without any boundaries of age, gender, region, religion etc. What truly matters is the correct timing. You won't want to have any regret at last. IT WAS TOTALLY MT TYPE OF SHOW, LOVED IT SO MUCH AS AN AUDIENCE, NEVER FELT A SINGLE MOMENT FAKE OR BORING, TRULY A GEM KINDA REALITY SHOW, A MOTIAVTION AND RAY OF HOPE IN THIS DIFFICULT WORLD!

Love (X) is a show featuring multi-nationality, mix Thai or Thai single people, who come together, to spend 12 days on an island, making friendships and relationships. It was really fun and exciting to watch as you can't predict anything, anything can happen any time. SO MANY SHIPS SAILING TOGETHER. There was not a love triangle or even a love square, but love pentagon in the series. One person likes someone, someone likes another person, and that another person likes a different person, and so on. Best, genuine, mature web of feelings! It made me realize that feelings are not meant to be caged or restricted, you are always free to love and be brave enough to confess and pursue it. If you are afraid of rejection, that's not love.

It revealed so many dimensions of love in just a single series. Truly one of its kind - a very mature thinking and non-scripted roles. I love how they played games or did activities to win ticket to X Land, but always cared for each other on the back end. Like they will never get fiesty or do foulplay in the competitions. As seen in many other dating or reality shows, where feelings are many a time crypted, unnecessary drama is created to grab attention, or people are just selfish or mean, it was completely different from that. I can really feel the warmth and growing connection between the 12 strangers. Even the wild card entries mingled so easily into the group and were the not the usual "creating love triangle" types.

There were so many emotional moments throughout. Since love can involve any gender, going from liking someone to having that person as your rival in love, was crazy. My top 4 characters were - Tod, Time, Namnung and Sunny. Namnung being my favorite and fiesty girl from episode 1. I liked her courage, her playfulness, her intelligence and her competitiveness. It was a truly shifting point when Tod responds to being in love with Sunny and to choose Namnung as here one-night stand. I think it was at this point, when the show goes crazy and all the ways out. Sunny and Namnung getting close, while viewers being sure of Tod's feelings towards Time. And thus the timing and courage matters the most!

I loved all the couples and all the dates, even those who didn't exit together at the end; seeing them together on the screen with so much chemistry was enough and I hope they all stay friends afterwards. We never know what can happen in real life! The last episode was the most heavy and sincere episode. No deception or no running away, but coming face to face with their feelings. Mill, Matheus, Kong and Joy, their one sided liking did left me in tears, but I was happy that they said it out loud and no matter what the decision of their confessed person, they were happy and proud of themselves to give it a proper ending or beginning to their feelings. 50% of the contestants got their love/ended the show with a companion, while rest 50% were brave enough to confess and walk out alone! So the purpose of the show gets 50% accomplished! so for the next season, 50% credibility is there that you will get a partner.

Time and Sunny getting together was completely unexpected for me. I was sincerely hoping from the bottom of my heart, for Sunny and Namnung, and Tod and Time, to end up together! But maybe life has another plans. These roommates were already my fav couples, yet they went around looking for love outside their rooms ;) The part that hurted me the most, was Namnung not confessing her feelings for Sunny, when everyone else were being honest with themselves and their partners even though they knew they will face rejection. I think she lost her track towards the last few episodes, from a strong woman to a confused one, trapped so much in her own feelings and web of regrets and caring too much for others, she couldn't chase what she wanted the most. I don't know what the ending would have been if Namnung had taken a different choice. My silent queen. She still won all our hearts and love, she is the epitome of beauty with brains, being so young yet so mature throughout. Bad decisions did happen, as the way to love is not smooth.

I experienced a lot of feelings and learnt a lot while watching this show. Like what a true reality show with genuine people feel like. How true love, discovering and exploring your interests feel like, when the whole world is open to you and you could just be yourself. Love anyone, no matter the gender or age. No one will judge you or force you. You write your own love story. And its okay to be interested in more than 1 person at the same time. Thus, love has no rulebook or evaluator. It can happen anytime, anywhere and with anyone. Their smiles, their cheesy yet genuine liners and confessions, their coziest dates, them chilling together and laughing together, will always be etched in my memory. Love (X) Season 1 will always be my favorite season, no matter how many seasons will come. They had truly set a milestone, and something that will go down in history. So proud of the whole team, the makers of the show, and of course the contestants. May the whole world be also like Love Land, where love knows no boundaries and we are free to pursue our love, and be open about our sexual orientations. It was like mini version of an ideal world. So keep exploring, keep loving and keep choosing yourself, being brave always!
