MY HEART SKIPPED A BEAT!!
Gosh, where do I even start? Do I start with the actors, characters, chemistry, or just my overall sadness now that this is ending?
STORY: As the Thai boy band Mars prepares to disband, videographer Po grows closer to the band’s lead singer, Thame. In vulnerability, Thame opens up to Po about his tough decision to leave the group and follow his dreams of starting a solo career in South Korea. This choice means he’ll have to part ways with his bandmates, and the weight of that decision is clear as Thame struggles with the fear of leaving behind the bond they shared. Po, determined to support Thame’s emotional journey, decides to use his ability and help Thame join MARS together once again.
Thame and Po, the couple that captured my heart the second I saw this. This series is a jem, a ruby, a diamond, a sapphire, whatever the most valuable thing you can think of, this series is just that. It is has to be one of, if not THE best combination of a storyline, romance, comedy, entertainment, sneaking, and joy. Whoever wrote this storyline knew what they were doing.
I have watched so many bls within my, what? 2-ish years of discovery, but this, this I cannot believe.
The show does a great job of showing the life of an idol, capturing both the challenges they face in their career and the pressure from their fans. It highlights the hard work and determination needed to balance their busy life with the demands of the entertainment industry, while also dealing with the constant attention from fans, both the good and the difficult parts. The way it shows these struggles feels very real and well done.
The chemistry between the lead actors, William and Est, is amazing. They are a perfect pair, and their on-screen connection is, well, connecting!!! Watching them together is captivating, and their performances bring so much depth to their characters. They truly bring their roles to life, and you can't help but feel for them, whether they are happy or vulnerable. The love makes you feel like they're genuinely IN LOVE. Honestly, who could blame either of them when they have that beautiful man in front of them??
The romance between the idol and the ordinary person is one of the standout parts of the story. It's not just another typical love story. Their relationship is portrayed in a way that feels fresh and genuine. It's full of real emotions and challenges that come from being from different worlds. Their love feels deep and believable, and it's easy to get invested in their journey.
Overall, this isn't just another love story it's a heartfelt romance that keeps you entertained from start to finish. By the end, you’ll wish there was more because it’s just that good.
The way the show portrays the reality of being a fan is painfully true, even though we may wish it wasn't. As fans, we often forget that idols are human beings with their own emotions and personal lives. Instead, we treat them like they're robots whose only job is to entertain us, pamper us, or even fit into our own fan-created fantasies. It's an uncomfortable truth, but the show does a great job of reflecting how we sometimes place idols on a pedestal, expecting them to be perfect and constantly available to us.
We often overlook that these idols, like everyone else, need time for themselves, and they deserve to be cared for and supported, not just by their fans but also by the people close to them. It's easy for us to fall into the trap of thinking they are there to serve us, as if they don't have their own wants and needs. Unfortunately, this mindset can sometimes make us forget that idols are real people with real struggles, and that they, too, deserve privacy, freedom, and love. While it might seem silly to think of them as being “our slaves,” it's a harsh reality that some fans expect idols to always be at their service, without ever considering their well-being. The show does a fantastic job of shining a light on this side of fandom, showing just how unfair and one-sided it can be.
Overall, I have so much more to say, yet such little words to use. I cannot begin to explain how sad I will be when I remember Fridays with just be, well, Fridays. Not Thamepo day. Farewell, to Thame, to Po, to LYKN (especially my man Hong🤍). Goodbye to the show that made my heart skip a beat!!
