It's a funny rom-com, great acting and writing, but often OTT, and with artificial laughter that got on my nerves sometimes. LAZ 1 only have a cameo in one episode.
Just as Hiro and Jericho are the new princes of Pinoy BL, and the most amazing pairing since Elijah and Kokoy, Daou and Offroad are the most thrilling Thai BL pairing since, hmm, since when really? I wonder if there has ever been a Thai BL couple that was as natural as them. PP Krit and Billkin maybe?
Most of what I wanted to say has been said by others, so I won't repeat all the complaints about unnecessary side characters, the destruction of the stellar main couple, and abysmal writing in general. But there's one thing I'd like to add. It's about Geo Emprese. I've been Gio's fan since his wonderful performance in the "Meet My Angel" series, and I've always been embarrassed by the way his characters are so OTT, which can be funny if well written, but which it isn't in Oxin productions. In this episode, for a short moment in the office scene, there was a glimpse of what he's really capable of. Like in the best Fifth-Zeke scenes I have a hunch that this was improvised.
"Utsukushii Kare" is among my all-time favourite BL series, but "My Personal Weatherman" comes very close, and episode 6 was again brilliant, displaying the leads' love despite their misunderstandings.
I love Studio Wabi Sabi for productions like this. Wonderful first episode that makes me excited for the rest of the show. The mood is very similar to UWMA, which I loved because it was one of the first BL series I watched as it premiered, and which made me become addicted to this genre. It is great that once again they celebrate "Love of Siam", the mother of all Thai BLs.
I enjoyed this series. It's nothing sensational, but a well written story without too much artificial drama. The acting is good, and the food looks delicious (don't watch when hungry!). I wish I had studied in Korea, so I could have attended some of those "love classes".
You wrote the review I would have written. Both male leads knew how to act with their eyes. This is a change of…

There have been some iconic kissing scenes in BL series, e.g. the rooftop scene in "Bad Buddy", the rain scene in "Love Mechanics", and now there's the earthquake scene in "Love in Translation". Gorgeous!
I endured this nonsense till episode 5 because I love Long Lee and Frank, but episode 5 was even worse than the previous ones, so I finally dropped it.
I loved this story. A beautiful chamber play, realistic plot, just the right pace, and a lead couple with an amazing chemistry. I already loved Milk in "War of Y", and after this I hope to see more of him, hopefully with Junior. They both don't come across as rookies.
Offroad is an amazing actor. I already loved him in "Our Days", where he played a role completely different than Phumjai. In this series, he can show a much broader scale of his acting skills, and the chemístry with Daou puts these two on the same level as the best Thai BL couples.
