hahaha, i think u are one of those ppl that cant differentiate critisism from hate. If i hated it i would drop it. But this series does have it flaws. And since there isnt anything from GMMTV on fridays i skim through this series. I get there are ppl that like this series, but just cause u ppl like it doesnt mean its perfect. And the fact that there ppl like u who cant accept or allow any negative comments about a show shows what kinda fans this series is attracting. I admit i havent dropped this series yet cause i wanna see how much many more flaws it will bring up and how it ends.
Do i hate this series? no. But do i like or enjoy it? unfortunately also no

Ok I know this is a fictional series like all other shows/series out there. So logic need not apply most of the time....but lets apply a touch of reality to this series:
1. Theo became interested in someone/people cause they left him a msg. By that concept shouldnt anyone who has FB or IG be doing the same? Just cause someone leaves u a msg u feel u need to know them? Perverts, pedophiles, scammers, creeps and stalkers would be having a picnic if everyone responded to a msg they left.
2. If we ignore the concept I mentioned above, why would anyone be interested in Theo? He is dull, lacks any depth or character. If u were after benefits or money ok, he would be the perfect target (again; he would the ideal treat for scammers and perverts) but in real life who would wanna date a boring person like that? Maybe its just the way Book portrays him; as a man child who carries no charm or outstanding traits or qualities. I mean Theo is supposed to be this cute charming little prince who these ppl fall for. But Book doesnt make Theos character feel like a prince at all, just a simple bimbo. It could just be his acting can only go this far.
Again, I know logic need not apply to a fictional series but this is just food for thought lol

Basically he's a male bimbo. Pretty face, has some money , but no personality and no clue about anything

Well I guess GMMTV chose him cause he and Force have been frds since middle school, so it was a gimmick to promote a couple that have known each other and now will pretend to be lovers.And Book sorta has good looks? I dunno cause GMMTV uses alot of filter on him to make his pimples and scars disappear and to make his skin whiter. Many scenes u can see how strong the filter is.
Lol i dont think Force could be able to play a male bimbo.

their chemistry is natural as friends. not as ppl who love or are interested in each other. Force is doing ok, Book is not really that good at acting. In ep 4 ? when he was drunk, it looked he had a stroke more than being drunk. And his close up dialogs with Phupha looks like 2 goldfish interacting. Both dont know how to look at the other person naturally or focus their vision. Their eyes wander and u can see them looking around even when they are supposed to look at the person infront of them. lol

It's not really complaining. Most ppl only get their friendship vibes. But no romantic ones. It could be because they are friends and don't know how to pass that level of emotion. Or it may just because they are newbies and not good actors. Especially Book. His acting is really mediocre (yes this part is a complaint lol)

Its been mentioned long ago even before their series aired. They mention it quite often in their interviews too. This was the selling point and gimmick for this couple. Which is also why so many ppl get no romantic vibes from them.

Theo lived in France for 10 yrs, not in cave right? So how can he be so naive and uneducated about the world? He's basically a male bimbo in this series. Aside from having some good looks (which is heavily filtered to look white and blemish free) his character is lackluster and Books acting is bland. The scenes of him TRYING to be flirty and charming with Phupha is like watching 2 goldfish interact. Their mouths move, they stare, and have some facial movement, thats about it. Ofcourse the problem doesnt lie with Book alone.

I'm guessing 30% is the directors instructions. 30% the script 40% his bad acting.

I mean if they cast him as a college student I could accept that. Someone in their 20s. But him playing a high schoolers someone in their early or mid teens....It's kinda wrong haha

Actually he looks young in the series cause they use ALOT of filters. If u see him on interviews or vlogs u will see he is aging rather obviously and not in a good way. Sorry to say but he's starting to look like a bit creepy with all those wrinkles and eye bags while still dressing as a little kid and acting cutesy.

No offense but isn't Earth getting kinda too old to be still playing a high schoolers? It's time they let him do other roles. It's really hard to look at him and see him still being a high schoolers after so many series

I completely agree with u. The story itself is a yawnfest. I had to fast forward most of ep 3. Nothing happening really makes me wanna follow through with the ep. And the actors are really lacking any skills. I know they are newbies. But some scenes are really bad.they should just air 2eps a week so it can be done quickly

They should air 2 EPs a week instead of one. That way this slow story can actually move forward and be over

Lol. I don't expect Oscar level acting. But come on, this is basic level acting. They should be able to at least deliver a normal look at each other. When an actor can't even look at someone normally and naturally u know they are bad at acting . The truth hurts lol

It was hard to not notice it during the last few Mins and during the close ups. Last ep when they were at the bar and he was supposed to look at the stage I already noticed it cause he was looking around instead of the stage. This ep it was even more obvious

Phuphas left lazy eye is distracting. Whenever he sorta squints and tries to give one of those "charming" looks his left eye looks as if he is stuck between a wink or just had a stroke. whenever he and Book had a close up scene talking to each other during the stairs scene both of them are blinking rapidly. That's a sign the actors lack experience and skills. They don't know how to be natual. They don't know how to focus and don't know where they ought to look at. It's also a sign of nervousness. U don't see that with actors who are good or at least decent in acting

So instead of a tramp they made his character into a bimbo. lol

If Theo is gonna be "Dating" 4 guys (5 if u include Akk) doesnt that just make him a male tramp? He knows their intentions, or will know, and he just lets it go on to see whose the better one he likes. And he doesnt mind them competing against each other. Kinda contradicts the whole "innocent prince" thing lol

I agree. If BL series were like a sandwich and all the tropes, genres, plots, actors, etc were the toppings and condiments u could put on a sandwich to make it good, this series would be nothing more than a peanut butter and jelly sandwich... simple, boring and bland
