Technically this is one of the worst series I've seen. The camerawork, writing, editing, directing, acting and especially sound editing were really awful. But I still liked it. It's an ok watch if you're bored.
David and Simon had good chemistry and I was never bored while they were on the island. The twist surprised me and even though it was preachy and the mental health worker should immediately lose her license, I was glad David grew during his ordeal. I lowkey want sequel with David, Simon and Vince in a love triangle or at least with Vince finding another guy π€·ββοΈ
I did really dislike the homophobic comments by the hotel staff though, I wish those lines weren't included in the series
As much as I love so many things about this show, the decision to make Nat consistently aggressively hostile is very tough to watch. I know he will be developed and move past this behavior sooner or later, but it won't erase everything that he's done to Na, Tofu and others. Violence and bullying are never ok even if someone is hurting.
I haven't read the book, so my comment is only based on what I've seen up until episode 3. I don't want to have the plot spoiled.
I know most people gonna give this show a second try, at this point even most of websites that upload series have forgotten about it. But it gets better every episode. Chap and Green have great natural chemistry and episode 5 finally focused on them together. The writing and directing are weak, but overall it's an enjoyable 20 minutes every week.
This show is really aiming to have the best BL kisses of the year and I'm completely here for it. Also, I'll love any show that has a cameo from BounPrem π₯°π₯°
I appreciated the sincerity of this show and it's impossible not to smile at the sweet moments. But overall, after waiting 2 years for it to come out, I found this to be underwhelming. It felt like a BL that would have come out a few years ago. It was very predictable and since I mostly skipped over the secondary couples, waiting 10 episodes for Mork and Tawan to get together was unsatisfying.
Also, I'm sure this will be an unpopular opinion, but Mork deserved a better boyfriend than Tawan. Evil Por always said Tawan never had time for him and even 4 years laters he couldn't bother to remember his anniversary with Mork. Mork spent the entire season being supportive of Tawan, I can't say the same about Tawan.
I look forward to seeing Fluke in more shows, but for me the series is pretty forgettable.
Wow!!! I never say this but Da Un and Si Won are perfect together. Korea's less frustrating version of ITSAY + the a BL made for all fujoshi film majors to relate to I LOVED THEM TOGETHER SO MUCH. It feels like the KBL industry mostly took a year off in 2021 to prepare for an amazing year in 2022 and once again I'm impressed. I wish we had more time with these two, but seeing their relationship blossom was really enjoyable. It took a while for Si Won to start smiling, but by the time he did he stole my heart. This was great.
These two get cuter every episode π. Domestic bliss has never looked better, best bed scene of the year! I just love how naturally everything fell into place in their relationship. I truly wish we had more time with these adorable boys. This episode feels like it covered 30 episodes. But either way, I'm loving every minute of this series.
I watched 11 episodes and then gave up. It's 3 minutes per episode on tiktok so you get what you'd expect. I can't recommend wasting time on this but if you want something different, it's harmless
This and KinnPorsche were my most anticipated shows of the year. Now that we're being blessed with both at the same time, I couldn't be more excited. I was kinda nervous when I saw that this would be 16 hour and half episodes since most shows these days barely have enough content to fill 10 episodes, but epsiode 1 was really great. Nut was the least likeable character out of everyone, but I'm sure he'll get better. I'm so excited for the rest of this, Tofu is the cutest π
How did this show even happen. It seemed like there'd be soooooany ships and literally NONE of them sailed except…
Nope, I didn't even bother. Is it as good as Nitiman? I dropped Love Area, Oh Boarding House and Physical Therapy those were probably all close to as good as Niti π€£. I just finished Something In My Room, it wasn't as engaging as Niti. I shared my thoughts but the comments section didn't appreciate my views haha

Aww I was only able to sit through the 1st 2 epjsodes of Love Stage. I've been dropping A LOT of BLs this year. The only reason I got through Nitiman was because I binged it in a few days. I might watch Love Stage when there's a drought of good new BLs. Enjoy trolling it!
Overall, I loved this series. I thought Suar, was on point when he was asked to carry the episodes. Boom had a…
I agree with all your comments. For me this show's ending wasn't about resolutions, but showing the end of this brief moment in time when all the characters lives were entertwined. I wish I knew outcome of the couples' long term issues, but I can hold out a tiny bit of hope for a season 2 or movie.
Definitely my favorite show. I started watching BL randomly 6 years ago. And I always crave BLs that are about LGBTQIA+ people living their lives. And YMS was that for me.
From the beginning I fell in love with the coolest school I'd ever seen in one of these shows. And a hazing process that made me genuinely excited about the rest the semester. A school with a range of LGBTQIA+ people who were accepted and lived their lives. Women who didn't spend all their time chasing men who didn't want them. Athletes with beautifully imperfect relationships that felt so real. The show created 6 main characters that I cared about and even when they frustrated me, I never stopped loving them and hoping that they would find happiness.
Strong camerawork and cinematography are often afterthoughts in shows like this, but nearly every scene was shot like a Hollywood movie which I loved. The mostly new actors were all directed in a way that made it clear that worked hard and understood the motivations of their characters throughout the series. The acting was never perfect, but the characters were complex and their goals and desires changed multiple times, like in real life and I loved that too. The writers were clearly ambitious when it came to the main storyline. And I was very frustrated by the writing in later episodes. Now that it's over it feels like they planned enough story for 2 seasons of FahThorn but only enough for 1/2 of a season of SaenAii and DomeVee. That sucks, but the imperfect storytelling doesn't change the fact that this is my all time favorite show because of characters.
I'm going to miss quietly intense Dome who in spite of everything, I could never hate. And Vee a thoughtful brother who couldn't help but fall in with his sister's boyfriend. And lonely Saen who was proud to express his love for his soulmate Aii to anyone and everyone while also bei g a really great best friend to Thorn. And Aii who had a plan for his future that never involved someone like Saen, but after he met Saen, created space in his life to live out his dreams and still be in love with Saen.
And Thorn a lonely orphan who spent his whole life devoted to a man who gave him fun, friendship, family and love. And my all time favorite character Fah, who was never the smartest, kindest or most articulate person. He was an athlete at his core, but he was so much more to so many people and he allowed himself to fall in love with person he'd always been the closest to. He made A LOT of mistakes, but he remained the little boy who nutured and cared for Thorn when no one else did. FahThorn are my OTP and I was hooked on them the moment Thorn looked at Fah during the Warm Up. And their flashbacks added so much depth to their relationship, which REALLY loved. I'm going to miss overly affectionate Fah and Thorn who effortlessly had Fah wrapped around his finger. From their peacefully domestic moments to their fights that effected everyone around them. I love these 2 so much!
I'm also gonna miss the MDL comments section. I can't remember the last time I watched such a polarizing show, but week after week the comments here made me even more invested in my favorite show. I know a lot of people have valid reasons to dislike various aspects of the show, but I'm glad everyone watched.
I watched the 1st 3 episodes and then paused because I found them to be extremely boring. I came back and watched the rest of the series uncut and fell asleep on multiple episodes.
I wish I loved this as much as most of the commentors here. But I felt like it was a mess. A horror show with a BL plot added in to bring in a larger audience. It baffles me how the edited version leaves out many key plotpoints in the show, but I'm also baffled at how boring most of the uncut version was. I'm really glad that companies are making some unique BLs, but a unique premise doesn't equal a well executed series.
There were sooooo many random and wasted plots and characters. A play, fashion, aliens, parents who hate their kid, strangling someone and then being welcomed into their house, a mom who does NOTHING everyday, Dream and so many more. There were large parts of the series where I forgot I was supposed to be watching a BL because Nuan was given so much screen time. It was obvious from episode 1 that she was bad and yet they spent sooooo much time showing us how bad she really was and she never had negative repercussions for her actions.
I really liked Nut's acting, he improved A LOT since Oxygen and he was the reason I didn't give up. Maybe if I had felt an emotional connection to the story, I would have cried at the end and enjoyed it as much as some of the other viewers, but by the end I was just glad it was over.
Oh no. Not another high school in blue shorts to college freshmen in black slacks. This is getting so overdone.
It's not a trope. Thai schools and colleges have uniforms, so most Thai shows set in high school will have boys who wear blue shorts and most Thai shows set in college will have guys who wear black pants. There are some exceptions to the uniforms, but most schools throughout the country have the same requirements for clothes.
David and Simon had good chemistry and I was never bored while they were on the island.
