It’s a really good drama and well worth the watch. Jimmy is great in this, he might be the best Thai actor doing BL today. I hope he keeps getting good roles.
Only if you consider BL some kind of inferior work of popular culture compared to non-BL. Do you?
I think the quality of storytelling and production on a majority of BL is very low. There are 3 or 4 really good ones a year and the rest are all almost the same. Not a cultural thing, more like making a fast buck thing.
I think it a bit disrespectful to call this a BL, it’s on a whole different level. The storytelling, acting, photography, music, it’s all excellent especially when compared to the typical Thai drama. The plot is very predictable, but still it is a great love story.
I find Meen and Ping so likeable I can put any flaws in the drama aside, I always enjoy watching them and I’m really looking forward to them getting a bit older and more experienced, I think they are going to be really great actors.
I’m not one to watch dramas from Mainland China, but wow is this one is good. Everything is on point, the story, the cast, acting, it doesn’t get much better than this. And of all places, how does China, with all their censorship put out the best same sex romance drama I have ever seen?
Except for typically terrible Thai BL kisses, this was a really good drama. I would have liked a few more episodes and a little more development of couples, but it was fun to watch
To that reviewer, Pinoy Ares who said “ Have you ever watched a show that made you feel like you are a dirty pedophile? ” I think you have a really dark problem you should discuss with your therapist.
It amuses me how critical people get here, I find even the best of Thai dramas are still a bit lame. This one didn’t have blue shorts, stupid sound effects, or boys (who can’t) trying to sing and play guitars, that’s a big plus for me. I think Pond and Phuwin did a good job for the young actors they are. Overall I enjoyed it and think it’s worth watching. 8/10
