Love in the Air (2022)

GIVE ME MORE!!!

I am trying to get a hold of myself when I am writing this review because all I can say is..... MORE BOSSNOEUL AND MORE FORTHPEAT!!!!!!!! IT IS A CRIME THAT THIS SERIES IS JUST 12 EPISODES TBH. At first I feel like why is Rain's character like this and why is he being straight but MISS GURL- HERE COMES PAYU TO THE RESCUE. AND MISS GURL...... THE SEX SCENES ARE JUST *CHEF KISS*. I know that some of the productions failed at making certain action scenes look cool but DAYUMMMMMM THIS SERIES IS JUST <3 <3 <3 <3!!!!!!!

I still couldn't get over how gorgeous the casts are and that includes FORTH I AM LOOKING AT YOU YES YOUUUU.

To be honest some of the series that have side pairing sometimes will make the main pairing look overrated but this time both of the pairing have the same screentime and makes me unsure which one of them that I love the most.

Okay lets talk about the character. Rain - a spoiled brat that have foul mouth but here comes Payu where he teaches Rain the manner (IYKYK). Sky is doing alright just that sometimes it annoys the heck out of me when he is trying to act all tough when Prapai is spoiling him like a baby.

I dont want to say much because I REALLY WANT YOU GUYS TO WATCH BY YOURSELF. cause its totally worth it. Not once I skip any part in this series cause it is SPICEY WITH A HINT OF SWEETNESS.

Problematically falling in love through thin air, still always there for each other

A lot has already been said, so rather than mentioning all those details again, this is my view on how I see the four protagonists. The entire series is divided into love between Payu- Rain and Prapai- Sky, as a Mame project it has objectionable content, if it is not your way, this needs to be skipped.

Overall the things I loved in the series-

I loved the plot and screenwriting, which brick by brick sets how the flawed characters actualize their mistakes and are responsibly out there to fix them for the ones they love. Payu is tough and in need of love, but becomes marvelously soft around a caring Rain who he always longed for. Rain searches for love and is irked by Payu but cannot help to see the efforts his senior puts now that he is so important to him. He acknowledges the way Payu points out the areas he needs to improve or how he praises him for hard work or sucks-in his own feelings just to make Rain focus on life goals. Payu worked hard a lot to be where he is, as a successful architect and a co- owner of a garage. He wants the same for Rain, least to see him work hard for himself. Payu becomes Rain’s inspiration, and the more they interact the more they fall, to an extent Rain spells it out clearly that he will never let go of this senior and the senior desires the same. As for Pai and Sky, Pai’s efforts in love was all Sky needed to regain his faith back in love, which eventually happens and both the couple are beautifully shown to believe in marriage and yearning to spend their lives together.

No doubt the production team’s effort to find the right cast hits off and they give their viewers the perfect pairing of actors. The sincerity in their chemistry is sky rocketing. The way Noel portrayed Rain shedding tear, scared to lose Payu or the way Boss outlines Payu looking into the eyes of Rain, happy that Rain never wants to let go off him or Fort as Pai, cuddling to convince Sky of his love is to the point or the way Pete as Sky breaks down in the arms of Pai crying that he really loves him.

Cinematography in here is everything, cannot get over the impressive aerial shot depicting trucks bringing Payu's work. The orange color of Payu and Rain lost in each other amongst all, or dominance of blue in background to match the coolness of blue in Payu’s clothing, or the brightness in background emphasizing Pai's strong character to the red hint of perplexed condition of a conflicted Sky are all so well-matched. Music is the next big thing, I could never skip the intro song, whether Thai or English every songs justifies the scene it has been inculcated into, whether Payu’s situation of keep your money I want your respect or the authority of the stylish racetrack.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Analyzing the characters-

Payu and Rain knowing each other:

On a stormy and rainy night, we see a stranger stop and help a person stuck with a flat tyre. Indeed helping a stranger out of the blue, Payu is someone good to his colleagues, helps around workers in his garage and there for his juniors back in his college, as the department still keeps him in charge, given his outstanding meritorious records. The one in need of help is Rain, stepping out of the coziness of his car, he shelters Payu from the downpour, making storm fall for the simplest gentleness of rain.

Payu all rich, handsome and playful is the salt and pepper case of unhappy lonely individual; he is looking for someone to fall for him seriously above his richness and looks, but gets none. When he comes to know that Rain is within his knowing, he strikes out a plan to know him more, though this plan of his is improper to me. Rain does look at Payu and my god the way he looks, holds onto Payu's hand asking for help and agrees to come to Payu's home, maybe he should have once requested the senior to drop him at his home; anyways, this attention is put into question by Payu. As we see around or in other depictions; the sudden mutual attraction meaning mere causality, which how to be taken further or dropped is left between the two.

Payu’s handsome face makes Rain’s struggle harder but he strongly denies. Payu lets him go, saying he is also not in the mood anymore, but somewhere he gets that Rain is not playing hard to get and his no is indeed a firm no. Payu acts tough asking Rain to stay back given the bad weather, hence, we get to see a side of Payu who also knows what a no means and Rains spends the night at Payu’s home without advantage taken. Instead, when Rain hugs him, lying by his side falling to sleep, Payu is seen happy that Rain is unlike others and could be the one to meet his expectation of serious relationship, revealing he may really like him.

Payu knows his limits and the turning point in their relationship:

He follows Rain to college and confronts him getting close in a way which again should have been avoided. Rain is taken away by his aura, looks and virtues from the beginning and we see him succumb to Payu's touches holding onto his cloth and away even when Payu stops. Here if you watch, you will see, Rain gets away in Payu’s touching to an extent he shares something getting up to his friend Sky. And again we see Payu stopping without taking it further even if Rain gets carried away. Rain stays back henceforth at times and at none interval Payu takes advantage. On the contrary we see interactions between them where Payu cooks him breakfast, drops him home or takes him out for dinner. With these growing interactions, Rain chooses Payu to heal his disturbed mind as his assignment gets rejected and yes Payu comes running to hold him in his arms and hear him as he cries. To me this was the turning point in their relationship, where Payu proves that amidst his teasing, his liking for Rain is also true words.

Changing for love, Rain is important to Payu more than anything:

When Payu is someone who understands a no and stops without taking the situation further, then why the need to approach Rain in a manner where he becomes uncomfortable? This is where even Payu understands that Rain is actually quite immature and not ready for a serious commitment. I wouldn’t coin Rain’s coming to Payu as a sheer gesture of stalking, although it initiated for the purpose of a bet to win over Payu. Rain eventually intends to see Payu and spend time with him, which Payu readily digs in, as it broadens their chances of getting close. But all of this hampers Rain’s concentration in studies, and here is where Payu proves his sincerity for Rain. He decides to stay away from him, until Rain understands the gravity to equate things and becomes dependable. This sacrifice to mar his own feelings for the good of Rain is what hits Rain as well, he works his days and nights off just to see the face of Payu and make him actualize he is worthy of staying by Payu’s side.

Payu and Rain falling in love, their equation as a couple:

Rain is immature but not meek, he always stood firm against Payu’s advances where he had too, made out willingly when he wanted to and threw punches if felt wronged. Their love making NC scenes are a lot more than just making out; they keep talking and looking into each other, totally in sync with each other’s feelings. Rain knows the areas where Payu didn’t take advantage or stopped himself, and we see him stay over at his place or come to him again and again. He doesn’t trust words of Payu alone; he takes his time to determine his own and as well as Payu's feelings. It is only when Payu proves his worth enough by being there for him to the extent Payu aloof himself for Rain’s sake that Rain slowly questions his own feelings. We also see Payu caring for Rain in many ways, he protects him the best he can, of course even if that means he risks his own life or bow down. He sings out how lucky he feels to have met Rain and have him in his life, he takes him out for a movie on that sport bike of his and they both have Korean lunch. He is always there guiding him to do better in his studies, even if it means he has to stay awake helping Rain in his assignments. Payu has lots of people wanting him, and yes he only wants Rain.

Prapai turning his world upside down for Sky:

As for Prapai and Sky, even though one episode left, I still wouldn’t judge it on a whole because I haven’t seen the entirety of them. So in a gist, Prapai is the rich and handsome guy again who longs for true love but gets none. Once more I have objection to how Pai approaches Sky. Even though Sky agrees to Pai's proposal, hence if casualty is Sky’s choice I am no one to judge, else with what mindset Sky agrees to Pai's wishful thinking is something wondering to me. We see the same lifestyle for Pai, where no relationship to commit he is fine with no strings attached, and again it’s his life. What I doubt on is what would happen if Sky said no? Which started off as casual feelings to be ended, but Pai demanding love to see him above his face and money, cannot help but fall for humble Sky. He makes his way to Sky, which Sky initially evades but finds impossible to fall for the charms and efforts of Pai. His persistence to prove he wants it serious with Sky makes him take rounds of travels to deliver food or to take care of sick Sky. Hence, persistence for good is also appreciative where if he loves he will prove fits in the story, and we see Sky demanding in self that Pai likes only him and never leaves him.

For those who prefer green flag stories, to remind them here the characters are flawed just like other series going around in fictional entertainment. So controversies not your type, this is a no-go. Else, the character development and simple yet intriguing plot is a must watch and re-watchable at any time for a break away from busy world.

Love in the air? More like abuse in the air, at least for now.

I had to stop watching after the love interest throws Rain on his bed and sexually harassed him.

Let me say I'm all for watching problematic things, but the problem is when such shows expect us to find them romantic & hot. And it's working. Many people who commented on yt find this "relationship" hot, charming, sexy...

Even if you are into someone, that person has no right to keep harassing you.
People who romanticize abuse and toxic relationship start screaming right away "it's a show they're not REAL people". Yes it's a show. But if you watch thriller & crime series or a movies you also don't throw your morals away. When you see abuse you say "that's wrong". When you read a book you probably say "wow she/he was harassed that's terrible". Even if it's not real people, it's a horrible situation. But somehow people forget about morals when it comes to abuse in BL.

You know what is very real? Lines that Phyau says "you are throwing yourself at me", "you are playing hard to get". And I see people being crazy about these lines in the comments. Somehow these lines are super hot.
You can watch this show, you can find characters interesting, funny, charismatic... but you can also see what's right and what's wrong. It's disgusting how many people defend Phayu's actions and they find them sexy.
You watching this show, it doesn't make you a bad person. You romanticizing abuse and harassment makes you a bad person. Because my only thought is... if you defend abuse, you're probably abusive person yourself. Or at least a person who clearly doesn't respect themselves if you'd love to be treated the way that Rain is being treated.
You can love a show and also disagree with character's behaviour.

Phayu is a very abusive person... and Rain 100% deserves better. After a while I finished watching ep 1 and I started with ep 2 but after Rain was spanked, and after the kiss I stopped again.

Showing abusive behavior is fine. But it's not fine when you only do it because you want people to find this kind of thing hot. It's fine when you show that one of the characters comes to a conclusion that he doesn't deserve this. Or another characters helps him to come to this conclusion. Or at least when an abusive character comes to a conclusion that he f---ed up. And works on himself to become a better person.


If you're watching the show then that's fine with me. I might check it out later on myself to see if things get worse or better for Rain because I really adore his character. But from experience toxic characters like Phayu in BL's usually don't get much better. I could be wrong and he will grow as a character, and realize what he's doing is all kinds of f---ed up. But I don't have much hope. I'll drop the series for now and come back when more episodes will be out. It's such a shame really, because I fell in love with Rain's character right away. I love dorky characters like him.

I really wish all harassment wouldn't be shown and Rain would just fall asleep at Phayu's and then accidentally at night they start cuddling or something in their sleep. Like Rain rolls over more to Phayu's side and Phayu's hand accidentally hugs Rain for example.

Unnatural Character Development

This was the first show to give me whiplash with a character's actions. The show wasn't even that deep or detailed but Rain's character in the middle of episode 2 instantly felt OOC. You can't establish a character and then have them break character instantly. It deceives the audience's expectations. There has to be foreshadowed progression.

I'm not even done watching episode 2 but because of that one scene i can't take it seriously anymore or even pay attention to read the subtitles.

I never thought that a show that seemed decent and promising in episode 1 could turn me off it in the next episode. Even the more bland shows, i watched more episodes then this.

Impressed

Well at first let me start with the visuals. I mean what were the chances of having two real pretty boys like Boss and Force in the same series but here we are lol. The actors playing Rain and Sky were total cuties too but guess I Couldn't move my eyes much from Payu and Prapai to notice them lol no offence.

The thing I loved the most was that the series paid equal attention to both the couples and even though the story was not that exciting or too new of concept for a bl but yet it had the charisma to keep the audience hooked. The acting and actors were perfectly on point. The director and everyone included did a fantastic job and it deserves all the good words.

Now for the first story everything was smooth. Rain is such a dumb yet adorable character with tons of drama and trust me everyone loves a smol drama king lol. And Payu with his visuals and that seductive voice killed it. Both acted so well in their parts. So much chemistry and and the story was fun to watch obviously. And well unlike some other bls it actually showed us what students go through lol.

Now for the second couple.. The story was a bit darker and Force did an amazing job as Prapai. Not only he accepted his feelings for Sky, he immediately started working on them and totally changed himself. The way he took care of Sky and was so soft spoken to him just gave me butterflies inside my whole body. We all need a Prapai of our own now don't we? But guess prapais are only fictional and cannot be found in real life lol. He had the best character development. A literal green flag of a character for sure.
The only thing that bothered me a bit was the actor who played Sky. This character had depth and I think the acting could have been better specially the scenes where he's scared or crying. These crying scenes seemed so forced idk why his expressions were constant. He has great Potentials and hopefully he'll do better in his upcoming projects.

Can't wait to see more works from the cast. Man I need so much more of them fr.

I don't know what it is about Mame's couples that makes them extremely shippable! Especially Mew Gulf and Ja First, I can't get enough of them!

Love In The Air was no exception, but while I really enjoyed Payu Rains story I basically fell in love with Sky Prapai!

I mean everyone from Noulle to Boss is attractive, but I don't know what it is about Peat Fort that I have literally watching them everywhere lol and just shipping them bad!

their story made more of an impact on me obviously, cause I love angsty, emotional red flag couples like Vegas Pete, Tharn Type, and Leo Fiat :')

buuut tbh Prapai is basically a less insecure Leo, and Lei Fiat have some toxicness to them like Tharn Type that makes it even more shippable for me lol but for once I guess Im more into how wholesome Sky Prapai's relationship is! and despite their conflicts they always find their way to each other. Also the intimate scenes are just hot and a little depraved which I love.


So yes, all in all, it's not perfect by any chance, writing wise or direction wise but still the couples made an impact on me. stood out from the rest.
And that finale was really something!

Incredible effort

The series is divided into two parts, one where we have rain and payu, second where we have sky and prapai.
I really liked both the stories, both the storylines are different from one another. The acting is amazing, specially sky's character is so well enacted that genuinely feel all the pain and the struggle that character had faced.
The series with rain and payu's story is extremely sensual and has a different intake on relationship between two person with different personalities, one of them being talented and mature self made man where as on the other being cheerful but slightly Immature student. They work on each other and embrace their flaws and help each other to grow.
Ok something might not be acceptable like payu trying to seduce rain against his will, agreed but rest of the story where he encourages, supports and protects him was quite nice to watch.
Whereas if I talk about sky and prapai, literally & honestly l wasn't prepared for such a heart breaking story. I really really have to appreciate the acting skills of both the actors. Such an innocent character portrayed so convincingly that you connect with him so much. You can so feel the fear, anxiety and the horrible pain sky has been through and prapai genuine urge to love him.
The story does start with a misunderstanding, in my personal opinion prapai wont have forced sky to do anything but since sky's character was to broken and used to all this that he just gave in. I love the character development in the series. How prapai felt sky's pain and held him or how sky could finally rely on someone who really loves him. It was a really beautiful story and a tough one to watch in a sensitive way as well as heartfelt way.
