News VIOLATES the law of drama is a realistic way
Paradoxically, this gay series is lacking in drama in a way that makes it more realistic.
The law of drama dictates that main characters need to have an arc, they need to change, but in reality most people never really change what happens because their personality is strongly wired by how neural network has grown in their brain by the time it completes development.
It is also interesting how the country where the events happen can turn the story from psychological to social drama. For example, if it was situated in South Korea with its totalitarian societal pressure, the 180 degrees could have been a social drama, not about just a few cowards like this Thai setting suggests.
THE MOTHER’s feelings are contradictory.
She claims that her son is the most important thing to her but it is not important to her at all what he wants to do and to be in his life.
This is not how actual love works. But there are people like this in real life.
Overall, this series looks like a three hour state play that was extended to six hours. It could benefit from tightening up to avoid some repetition and overexposure in super long dialoges.
Still, it is great, and the actors were impeccable.
