Started strong and then fizzled in the end
Disclaimer
What I am writing here are my views and thoughts about this series. Some of you may not like it. That does not give you the right to try to come at me with your opinions on why this series should get a higher or lower score and why it is better/worse than I think it is. You have your own opinions, and I have mine. Kindly respect that.
I felt that this was a nice and quick watch for me. I liked the majority of the episodes (except for some parts) with them getting together and the progress of their relationship from fake to real, but the ending just left me like...meh. We really don't have a baddie, per se, in this series. I mean, we start off with a character, Oh, who seems not to know that a person, Teerak, doesn't like him. Even though he is told by Muenfah, that they are boyfriends, he STILL insists on hitting on Teerak, which leads to them fake dating. We have a glimpse of Oh and his mother (who I thought would have had a bigger role in this series...but she doesn't) in some episodes until Teerak finally has the balls to tell him how he truly feels. Also, he was informed by Teerak and his friends that Teerak doesn't drink alcohol – trick them into drinking mocktails with their first set of drinks to then proceed to make alcoholic drinks and give the drinks to them – where Teerak doesn't drink alcohol!! How am I supposed to be rooting for you or feeling bad for you after his meeting with his mom, where I see him as the most despicable guy here? Anyway, exit bad guy number 1.
'Bad' guy number 2 enters, and it's none other than Teerak's dad. I STILL don't know why he was so against it when both his father and his wife accepted the relationship. Muenfah is actually a catch, and they should be glad that Teerak was able to get him to be interested in him. He's not only smart, kind and caring to Teerak, but he is well-off AND his parents have accepted Teerak as their own. Did they decide to go this way to try to stretch this series to twelve episodes? Because that's the only reason why I am seeing them for choosing this route for Teerak's dad, as he seemed throughout the series as if he would have been the one to accept the relationship more than his wife and his dad. As soon as 'bad' guy 2 enters, he is gone by the following episodes and has now accepted Muenfah to date his only son. And it's because of this that this series is not that strong for me. I also honestly felt that the secondary male couples, especially Muenfah's brother, should have more screen time. Because his love story just came out of nowhere for me, unlike that of the building up of the next secondary BL couple, Real and Hia.
All in all, it started strong, fizzled out, and had a good and addictive OST.
