don't let the campy humor distract you from a heartfelt story
In my subjective opinion, this is an adorable drama. Very silly in parts? Yes. Leaning heavily into campy humor tropes? Yes. Sweet meaningful storyline? Also yes.
I particularly enjoyed the ways that the story demonstrates both how language barriers can be difficult, and how they also don't matter sometimes. I really loved the way that the sound and mannerisms of spoken Thai were contrasted with the sound and mannerisms of spoken Korean. This was a unique feeling drama and I will be watching it again in the future.
CONTENT WARNINGS: domestic violence, some non-consensual intimate contact, verbal and physical violence toward a queer person
