Neat and Simple
Just finished a rewatch of this series as i'm hearing good things about the new one and this was one of the first Thai drama's i watched so i wanted to remind myself what happened.
If you like slow, no drama, and simplistic stories then this is definitely a must watch for you! There's nothing bad about the story it's just very slow, predictable, and honestly, nothing really happens. I love Earth and Bas and i've seen all these actors in other shows and know they are brilliant, but i found the friendship chemistry stronger then the relationship chemistry. Relationships seem to go from hate/indifference, to 'can't live without you' in a single scene, it doesn't feel realistic, which is great for anyone wanting to just escape realism!
Although all relationships are pretty much green flags, i'm sorry but if my partner had some of these reactions, or had done some of these things, i'd be pretty uncomfortable, as one's slightly stalkerish and controlling, and the other is awful at communicating, and also treats his partner like a child.
It's definitely a 'I watch for the cast not the plot' series for me. My favourite episode is probably 16 where there are some good interactions, and without spoilers i love the fainting scene, felt like the reaction is on point, just wish the aftermath were more fleshed out and at least dragged out for rest of episode.
Not a series i'm desperate to re-watch, like i said, only done this time for new season, but it is well acted, some fun moments, and very much an easy watch when you just can't stomach tension. Although there are a few scenes i will replay as they are cute and funny. Also i want North's duck! That duck is actor number 1!
