The Cringe RomCom I Didn't Expect To Love
They say Me & Thee is a bit cringe—and honestly? I don’t care. I loved it. For me, it’s a romcom done right, with a beautiful BL couple whose chemistry is so palpable. I’m actually not the biggest PondPhuwin fan, but the storyline really pulled me in—and let’s be real, PondPhuwin is one of GMMTV’s most popular BL couples anyway.
Pond looks absolutely lavish in this series; they styled him perfectly. As for Phuwin, his look really suits his character—simple, plain, nothing flashy. But to me? He’s one of the most beautiful, pretty, gorgeous, handsome people out there—name it, he has it.
Let’s talk about the characters:
Pond as Tee
Tee is hilarious. Imagine being the son of a mafia boss who loves watching soap operas (lakorns) and is a full-on hopeless romantic. Yes, the series gets a bit cringey because of him—but honestly, his cheesy lines are what I live for. They make me giggle, kick my feet, smile, and laugh. Most importantly, Tee is such a green flag. He always takes care of Peach and absolutely adores him, and that’s what makes his character so lovable.
Phuwin as Peach
Peach is simple and understated—nothing fancy about his style—but he’s so beautiful. He called himself boring, but I actually find him really interesting. He’s a photographer, plays musical instruments, and is even connected to an orphanage. The way he speaks is gentle, kind, and sometimes unintentionally funny. I loved how he kept trying to explain to Tee what courtship really means—that liking someone isn’t about money or material things. He’s such a good influence on Tee, and I think that’s exactly why Tee fell for him. Peach opened Tee’s eyes to the beauty of simplicity.
I also liked the second couple, Tawan & Aran, though their relationship is a bit toxic. Am I the only one who’s not used to seeing Santa with another partner? I think it’s because I saw him in My Only 12%, lol. I’m very open-minded about actors changing partners, but for some reason, with Santa, it feels different—maybe because he gives off such a manly vibe. I guess I just need more PerthSanta shows to fully get used to this pairing (so don't hate me, PerthSanta fans, lol).
Now, the third couple—Mok & Rome. Aside from loving the main story, I was so happy to see one of my favorite BL couples, WilliamEst, in this show. They’re not the main characters, but every time they had screen time together, it made me smile and giggle. Their chemistry is undeniable. That said, I was a bit let down by how limited their screen time was. Their story felt dull, and the ending wasn’t satisfying at all. I really wanted to see them fulfill their dreams together—and maybe give us just 10–15 minutes of them being lovey-dovey. And oh, the ending—where Thee ends up buying GMMTV and becoming the new CEO—was both hilarious and clever. The writer definitely deserves a raise for coming up with that idea.
Overall, Me & Thee completely satisfied me. If you think this is 100% Mafia show that's full of action, then you're wrong. Me & Thee is an easy and light watch. And yes, some of Tee’s lines are cringey—but this is the only kind of cringe that I genuinely love 🤣
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this if you’re looking for a funny, romantic, love-filled BL show.
