Weirdly engaging even though if I think too deeply about it the whole premise is creepy. Despite the age gap I kind of understand why the two leads like each other; they´re both rough around the edges and sarcastic, they have their unique banter. The plot per se is very unrealistic so I probably won´t rate the drama higher than a 7, still fun to watch though. Best aspect for me is the FL and the messed up relationship with her mother.
I lost hope somewhere last year around October so I don´t think this will ever air but I know for a fact it´s a masterpiece and we all would have loved it.
i mean... the story is inspired by a novel written by two women where homophobic tropes and harmful bl tropes are not present. i love your enthusiasm but i would have loved it if you turned down the misogyny a bit. i would also add that thai bl is not representative of all bl as it changes from country to country and that 99% of bl drama´s directors are men.
I‘ve found this slightly better than average thai BLs (no hate here, I like them lol)... I think it‘s because…
So after I posted this I checked to see who is the director and as I thought, it‘s a gay man. I don‘t usually care about the sexuality of actors and directors but it confirmed my suspicions in this case, this is to say... this drama is a little more tasteful than BL directed by straight men and also more realistic.
I‘ve found this slightly better than average thai BLs (no hate here, I like them lol)... I think it‘s because it has better pacing, actions have real consequences that don‘t get solved in a day and... Kao is struggling to come out and wants the relationship to stay private and there‘s some conflict with his boyfriend Pete, who instead is ready to come out and say it,.. it kind of added a little bit of realism to the story. Pete and Kao are a very cute couple :) I liked the second pairing too, they are completely different but meet in the middle, still nobody loses their individuality (the same can be said about Pete and Kao). The direction was also better than usual... I felt like the director tried a couple of new things/techniques. Nothing revolutionary but I felt the intention behind it
Very good story and great casting. The two leads are incredible actors. I wish this had been longer but overall it was a very compelling story and a believable romance I rooted for from the very beginning
Anyway, if nobody wants Punjin, I‘ll take him :Q_
