This drama has to stop making me cry at the end of every episode. So damn beautiful. T_T Every episode has had its great moments, but now it's really growing so much!
I loved how Sean/Black have built their relationship up to now: somehow we have felt their chemistry thru small and big gestures, and Sean's change of mind and now their acceptance/surrender to a feeling that maybe they don't even yet recognize.
I agree with whoever is saying Todd is the one behind all this: he basically always comes out of nowhere asking for info but only give away the hints that he wants... and maybe all in all Tawi might not be that bad of a guy (maybe he's Todd's father? XD)
And once again: HOLY SHIT THE MUSIC OF THIS SHOW!!!! AMAZING!!!
Thanks! I've watched almost any Thai BL out in the last five/ten years, but I wonder why I never actually watched a "non-gay" story... seems like it's time to start with some lakorn too XD
So, after admiring Frank in 2gether, I decided to rewind to his youth and here I am, starting this series.
Just one thing I must say, that I think everytime I see Khaotung: he has such a soft, kind and sweet face, why does he have that horrible picture here on MDL? It doesn't even look like himself. u.u
I think it’s amazing what GMMTV is doing with Not me. The world we’re living in is shallow and filled with…
I totally agree! I love how real these characters and their issues are, for once we have characters who act and speak like if they had no manufactered script but with themes, emotions, words we can connect with in our everyday struggles. We all need fluffiness in our lives and I won't say I'm not waiting for Sean/Black and Yok/Dan to end up together, but that's just how life is: there's a whole lot of things happening around people other than romance, and it's usually that what makes people grow and act in determined ways. We already have many "standards BLs" out there, let this be the "outstanding" one. <3
I want to take a stand in defense of Maze, I think he could have been a wonderful character if the writers did not smoke half a forest before writing his dialogues and actions. He's the classic "cold main lead who doesn't remember how to love" but with such cute puppy eyes. <3
Anyway. Singto had a TERRIBLE make-up in episode 10: especially the terrace scene was obscene, the foundation/phard was so dark! o.o
And: Nae always has amazing outfits, but that leopard blue body was unwatchable. o.o
All in all I know this drama sucks, the plot is trivial, the dialogues are meh ("I have seen him happy also in other moments" "when?" <--really do you need him to say it? "when he was with you" .....bleaaaah!), there is basically nothing happening but everyone acts like it's the end of the world... but well, now I really want to see these 4 hopeless guys till the end. XD
The flag scene is probably one of the best moments i've seen in a similar production, it was soooo well done that I couldn't stop smiling and feeling complete! Everything felt perfect! Such a great episode, this series keeps getting better and better! And both OffGun and YokDan leave me breathless! <3
I agree with you, I usually like Singto's acting: he was still a bit off in Sotus but I think his performance in "he's coming to me" was very well done and on point, for example... which demonstrates that he can do way better than what we're seeing now - and even now, there are certain moments in which he's great and certain other moments in which he looks "confused", but I would be too, because a lot of absurd things are happening in this drama. ^^'
This is probably the most hilarious thing I've seen in a long time, the opening song is so funny and Mob's reactions at everything that happens around him just crack me up... XD
I really hope S2 will cover the "tropes" of BLs once characters are in relationship, after we've seen all the encounters cliches in this S1.
I'm so happy I watched this while it was airing: these 3 months have been great thanks to the amazing rollercoaster that BB crew gave us. I cried for almost half of this last episode, in a mix of happiness (because PatPran are just so so SO cute!) and sadness (...well, it is sadly the last episode...).
This drama was unique in many ways, but probably the thing that makes it fantastic is this crisp, fresh, soft, positive way of telling a basically simple story, with which anyone can empathize, and make the characters come to life by being REAL and not the classic "types" of a BL.
Thanks for this experience. Can't wait to see P'Aof next projects. Lots of love to our best buddies!
This drama was such a wild trip! For me it started off weird, I couldn't immerse myself in the events; I couldn't empathize with Hira but I felt very close to Kiyoi and therefore it was such a frustrating journey... but still, I watched till the end and I'm glad I did it: the last episode was amazing, such a great performance from these young actors! Kiyoi gave me the chills in the second half of the last episode, his acting was so vivid! I think I'll rewatch it in a couple of weeks because I feel like it deserves a more accurate watch.
I totally don't get the ending of episode 8, since it was Phap himself to tell Maze to clarify things... ^^' I'm very confused about Phap's character: Maze is showing some development from episode to episode, but Phap is just so weird (I would have called the cops if, going in my hotel room, I'd find a hanging voodoo doll made out of towels and a dead body made out of blankets in my bed...!).
Omg I just noticed this series and it stars Takahashi Issei, so it's a must-watch! Plus as an ace I was really waiting for something addressing other flags of the lgbt community! Yay!
Question: where do you guys watch the raw episodes?
Well, it was much better than I thought! I had fun almost till the end... the last two episodes were unnecessary and boring, but still, it was a fun watch.
I loved Sarawat: he was funny, full of surprises, gentle and his character was well written (even though sometimes it felt a bit stiff), probably one of my favourite male leads in a school BL. Tine was cute at the beginning and very funny, but from the second half of the drama his character was terribly dull, lame and his jealousy was unbearable.
I honestly didn't feel the lack of "physical interactions" as a problem, even tho' it was a bit odd (especially being that they hinted at intimacy so many times)... but well, you could still feel the love (at least coming from Sarawat's caring attentions and actions).
One thing: is it just me, or Bright looks a lot like Brenton Thwaites (Dick Grayson in Titans, Henry Turner in Pirates of the Carribean)? Especially in the last couple of episodes I couldn't stop imagining him dressed in a leather outfit and going around kicking bad guys XD
I heard contrasting reviews on this drama but, having basically watched all other BLs in Thai industry and being that this series stars Gun, here I am. As I was expecting, the first 6 episodes were a blast and I bingewatched them in one night... now, I suppose the pain will start. ^^'
Ok, this series is making me laugh so much: the sketches between Maze&Phap are so funny, they have a great "friendship" chemistry! But, I felt like the "lovers" moment in ep 6 was soooooooo abrupt and empty... honestly it made me a bit sad because I was really hoping for something better.
I like the contrast between the openness and direct acting of Tae/Phap who is always over the top but yet feeling natural, and the subtle acting of Maze/Singto who's in a very "emotionless" role but still manages to come out in certain moments (I don't know if I made myself clear, sorry XD). I think slowly Phap's energy will take Maze out of the shell and he'll shine in the same way too. :)
Woah! This short series manages to tell a deeper, more complex and better done story then many longer products out there! Kudos to everyone involved in this project! The actors are AMAZING, especially Noah/YuShi who is so convincing in both the identities. There were so many meaningful scenes that were put together in a mosaic of little "bites of life", that together created a story with characters who grew, evolved, were so real!
The only thing I didn't love was the "secondary couple" that honestly was a bit too rushed, but I understand it was put there probably in the hope of another series.
I am SO amazed at this series, each and every episode is so meaningful and rich! PxP are a terrific couple, so balanced and fresh and real... the perfect friends/lovers .<3
But I must admit for almost half of this episode I kept watching Pa and thinking, jeez isn't she the cutest girl on earth! She has such perfect and harmonious facial features! Please P'Ink leave her to me, I want to marry this cutiepie! <3

All in all, one of the best gay stories of 2021.
