Overall, I really liked this drama. I honestly didn't expect to get THIS attached to it ?
The acting was amazing. Min Thanakorn and Toptap Jarukit were both incredible, and their chemistry was one of my favorite things about the entire series. Their relationship felt intense, complicated and believable, and I could genuinely feel the tension between Sun and Jay in so many scenes.
I also really enjoyed the revenge storyline. I liked that the drama wasn't just focused on the romance, but actually gave us a whole story involving revenge, betrayal, the entertainment industry and characters with their own motivations. There were so many moments where I was completely invested and just needed to know what would happen next.
The characters were another strong point for me. Sun's journey was especially interesting to watch, and I loved seeing how much he changed throughout the story. Jay was also such an interesting character because of how calm and calculating he could be, while still having so much going on underneath.
And THE CHEMISTRY. 😠Seriously. The tension between Sun and Jay was insane. Their scenes together were easily some of my favorite parts of the drama.
The pacing wasn't perfect and there were definitely some things I wish had been explored a little more, but honestly, those things didn't take away from how much I enjoyed watching it.
The production, cinematography and overall atmosphere were also really good. Everything fit the darker revenge storyline really well.
Overall, Payback was one of my favorite Thai BLs I've watched this year. It had a great revenge plot, amazing acting, insane chemistry and characters I actually cared about. I definitely recommend it if you like darker BLs with revenge, drama, complicated relationships and a lot of tension.
