Touches upon important issues but doesn't see it through?
There are many positive aspects about this show. It is pleasantly sensual, maybe not as spicy as many other shows, but it does not take away from the chemistry and intimacy. The writing is good, most of the dialogues and interactions seems realistic (but maybe I am too used to bad writing in Thailand lol). The soundtrack is great for the mood, although you can clearly see the taste of the person, who picked the songs. I seem to like the same music as this person, but if it were not the case, then the soundtrack may seem too homogenous in terms of genres.
I agree with previous reviews I read here. Even though, it is refreshing to see a bl lakorn be deeper on its themes and topics, it didn't quite hit the target with them... Maybe there is some censorship involved? GMMTV is still a large company, it is possible that they have their own agenda guiding the content.
What I mean is that the conflict between Jira and Koh is supposed to symbolize the conflict between artists and AI. Why does it end this way then? They make up without any compromises or talking, it just happens because of their chemistry? It did not make sense to me, because it undermines the message. Maybe they did not want their criticism to seems radical, I don't know, I'm still kind of confused about that.
One more thing I notice in a lot of Thai shows, the sound engineering and editing is just... nonexistent. Do they not teach sound directors in Thailand? I don't get why I need to hear static and the surroundings, when the characters aren't saying anything. Just cut it out? The quality of sound overall was honestly lacking and often distracted me from immersing into the series.
