Realistic and cute but boring

Obviously calling it realistic is the highlight here and what I mean by realistic is it's a very possibly believable story between two adults, going at a healthy pace, no drama, sweet moments and delicate romance. Which is also the reason is boring for many because there is literally no dramatic element to their romance.

Acting:

This is probably the reason the whole dramatic situation was dull. The actors are good-looking and charming, especially their smiles, but they were obviously not professional and their acting was basically on a single note, straightforward and not something unique. Maybe a little flare would have been better but it was alright.

Story:

The premise was good I suppose, nothing groundbreaking. Based on the description, you would assume the drama was surrounding the MC was going to have to put up a fight, persistence and such to convince his love-interest to work with his company but that whole plot barely lasted for a 2 episodes. I feel the story description is misleading. Also, the love-interest falls unbelievably quickly to a guy who's passion is drinking considering how much the love-interest hates drinking and people who drink. Like, come on. At least, props to the story for not including a complex drama of adding any hindering love triangles or love interests. The first episode was so unnecessary in that regards.

Romance:

Okay, yes, the show didn't deliver intimacy. I think we are all generally used to that in K-BL-dramas right now. The leads have good chemistry, but the kisses were weak, barely 2 or 3 times they kissed, no other intimacy. I guess some would consider it childish but I guess if you go past that, they are actually cute together and there is honestly nothing awkward going on considering the zero intimacy. I personally loved their romance. They are simple people, who appreciate food and each other. It's a healthy, supportive, young romance.

Ending:

So the ending... very meh. The beginning and ending of a series is the most important part and they clearly didn't focus on either. While the beginning was unnecessary and a tad bit confusing, the ending was too easy. Like until the second half of ending episode, the leads are just having cute moments and slowly falling for each other and bam, they are together? I guess we watch too many dramas and expect more. It was just too dull for me that's all. But again, it was sweet and realistic. So not bad.

Overall:

I personally enjoyed the show. I feel a lot of shows nowadays are too dramatic and extremely painful over the unnecessary plots and character arches. But this show is good refresher, down to earth and just really sweet. If you just want a simple, quick and cute watch, go for it. I think you might actually enjoy it. I loved it honestly. But if you are looking for something grand and dramatic, this might not be the show for you.

Highlights and reasons you should watch:

1. The best part was definitely the visuals, the atmosphere, the smiles! The freaking smiles and the good looking cast.
2. And yes, the unhealthy consumption of alcohol is ridiculous. But the way the MC loves and appreciated food is so adorable and admirable. The food making part is less but appealing. This is not food based show like many others out there. But they nailed what they worked with.
3. Also, there are not toxic characters! That is seriously something to worship if you are like me and have been dying on the inside after watching some insanely toxic characters in many dramas out there.
4. Is that really the reason the show was rated A in Viki? Because, if you exclude that part, it is an absolutely simple show okay for all ages.

Only 10 Episodes? Criminal. Absolutely Criminal ?

I genuinely don’t understand who decided Me and Thee only needed 10 episodes, because this show was WAY too good to end so soon. It aired for two months and somehow became one of the most satisfying, heart-warming watches ever. I smiled through the entire finale—no exaggeration—my cheeks were literally hurting 😭✨

This drama was soft, cozy, and full of love. Simple, yet beautifully nuanced. Every character felt real and lovable, and the story never relied on unnecessary drama—it just worked. GMMTV truly made a masterpiece here.

Now let’s talk about Khun Thee because HELLO??? This man is not a green flag, he is an entire green forest 🌳💚 His devotion to Peach was pure, gentle, and otherworldly. The way he loved and supported him was everything. And the Lee family?? Supportive, warm, wholesome—watching them felt like a hug.

Pond and Phuwin absolutely nailed their roles. They didn’t just act as Khun Thee and Peach—they became them. I’ve always loved PondPhuwin, but this show single-handedly made them my favorites. I already miss them on screen together 🥲

It was also so good seeing William and Est again after ThamePo. Mok and Rome were charming and fun, and honestly? I wish we got more of them 👀 And Peach’s sister Plub was such a joy—supportive, sweet female characters in BLs are always a blessing ✨

My only real complaint (besides the episode count 💀) was Aran and Tawan. I love Perth and Santa, but their relationship felt unnecessarily toxic and didn’t match the otherwise soft tone of the show.

That aside? Everything was perfection—the cast, the characters, the music, the vibes 💯 My biggest problem is that it ended WAY too fast. I won’t be leaving this show’s dreamland anytime soon.

If you haven’t watched Me and Thee yet… WHAT ARE YOU DOING??? Go watch it. Now. 💚😭
