Docinho (2022)

The great bl story who contain a lot of life lesson and support LGBTQ and marriage equality

I give all 5 stars because cutiepie the series is the best thai BL series i ever watch.
The story is really great, instead using unnecessary conflict, they put what happen if you and your patner have lack of communication.
20years keua and 29 years lian have a big age gap and communication is one of their problem.
The love scene is really beautiful, they have a great way to show us , how to make love with consent. I rarely found consent love scene in BL but Cutiepie have it and that is really beautiful.
The ost is amazing, some of ost is singing by their cast Nunew, Nat, Tuto, and Zee. Not only the cast but also the queen of thai series ost phi Amp, also singing one ost and write all ost.
Phi ton thanasit also have one song in cutiepie ost.

Every episode will give us lesson about love relationship, friendship, how to respect someone.
The comedy in this series is really fresh and i am sure will make us happy

Thai people is already fight to have an marriage equality law, and cutiepie represent people who wanna have marriage equality, show that LGBTQ love is beautiful

After all, cutiepie the series is one of the best BL series you must watch

Fantastic

I have thoroughly loved watching this show. The acting is superb, the storyline silly but fun and the messages that it shares important, relevant and glorious.
I wish that we could make some things obligatory for all humans to watch.

Love is love!
Communication and honesty are important in relationships!
Consent is essential!

Cute and funny and romantic and hot and frustrating and sad and joyful and wow, I am bereft that it is finished.

I'm not going to boast over how many BL I have watched to give myself credibility. But go and read the Youtube comments, sadly they are more supportive than some of the ones here. I thought I had found a community of my people but no, too much negativity for me.

Not a heavy story, but enjoyable!

It does not have a too heavy plot. The LGBTQ+ support is top notch and its overall a cute drama. The book from which the series was adapted is pretty shallow in itself, so I have to say that the series did quite well in adapting it. I enjoyed it. There were instances where the script was lacking and the episodes cud've been better paced, but the acting, production, and music was top notch. I wud still give the scripting a 7.5 because they tried their best to do what they cud as an adaption of the book. The theme had a much greater potential that what was shown, but they had to stick to the original novel according to the novel rights contract.
It mostly revolves around lack of communication and self love - something we experience in everyday life. There is no third party "DRAMA" drama or villain fathers. The problems between the characters are of their own making and misunderstanding. The pressure to meet expectations and how one might bend backwards to fit into it is shown very well.

Zee has done an excellent job as Lian and NuNew despite being a newbie has done very well for his first role. The chemistry is amazing and the pairing of ZeeNuNew is very compatible. I would say the acting, soundtrack, and the production was the best part of the series.
I am looking forward to another series of Zee and NuNew and I hope their next series have a more deep and well done scripting as well.
The rewatch value for me is a full because I did rewatch it and I did enjoy it just the same.

BEST BL EVER

i really like the plot, especially the chemistry between zeenunew is really strong and real. also the acting of nunew, which is his first series, but he nailed it. sooo cool. and he is so lucky to be paired with p zee. because pzee already have a long experience work in entertainment industry. also the detail in cutie pie is, the outfit that nukuea weared. before he life with hia lian he always wear a suit, now since he move to condo with hia lian he always wear a casual outfit everyday. make him looks like boyfriend material
and the ost is easy listening, my fav is the one who had a line "oy khon narak" nunew's voice is so soft, you will fall in love with him for sure. i really reccomend you to watch it guys

Marriage equality does matter

The fact that the cast keep highlighting marriage equality is everything for me. Married with the one you love! You doesn't need to care about what others think of you if your love is real! Zee Pruk's acting skill is another level, please he deserved an award for his acting skill, as for Nunew, this is his first series, overall he did pretty good! Thumbs up!

And I can say that the OST of this series is damn good, I wish they will make a cutie pie concert tho, I would love to buy the tickets. I'll definitely rewatch this series for thousand times! No regret! Trust me, just watch it!

Lovely, Life lesson, Great OST, no complicated plot twist

Do i read the novel? Yes I'am. Did I feel satisfied with the series adaptation? Yes. It thought you lesson of life, be yourself and you will be happy. Communicate to avoid misunderstand. I fell in love with the series when i stumbled accidentally on the official trailer. It captivated me. The mood, tone and cinematography caught me. I love when every episode ended, it give you feeling of cannot wait for next week/episode.
Actor/Acting: 10/10, they acted so naturall like they ate the script. How they delivered make you believe that its really them. Zee!! He such wonderful actor, his expressive eyes, micro expresion. Crying scene such a great cryer i would say. NuNew, for newbie and 1 series. He was so great, better than few actors who already acted in so many series but still acting stiff.
OST: 10/10. All songs for the series are GREAT!!! Marvelous. Each song tell what are the emotions/ context its all about.
Cinematography: 10/10. It was perfectly shot, kdrama style. I not sure how much their spent for each location, but it perfect. Lughthing, tone, mood all suitable for each concept.
I'm read a lot of comments said its toxic? What kind of toxic, age gap? Because the partner control the other? If you see more context, their problem is communication issue, this is what the series try to deliver, communicate and say what each other want to say. Which the series show it the end couples are communicate and finally the misunderstanding was solved, and they equal partner. Another thing I like bout the series was when their called out some inappropriate issue that really happened in real life, like teasing about your friend sex life, tease about girl on period (which some of us found it sensitive), about 1 scene that they cut it out. Personally i think, no need to delete the scene, it actually happen ( accident in sports mostlikely football/soccer) but again different culture different point of view. They also not so subtle calling out TH gov for the marriage equality. Even the actors keep mention a lot of times for this right.
And overall, this series if light series, fluff, lovely friendship, and the conflict in cursed EP or EP11 not because of 3rd party but because of main character communication issue.
Love youself, make yourself happy then only you can make other people happy. Support marriagr equality!! Happy watch. I not sure how many times I rewatch all the episode

i found it hard to rate but anyway

found it hard to rate this show the plot was a mess but i still looked forward to watching it every saturday and found myself still enjoying this. it was a waste of budget but im glad it was still successful for the actors sake (get that money)

story: plot wise it lacked it had potential to be so much more, the show is toxic but its cute and fluffy in some eps the chemistry between all 3 couples was natural and not forced. lian and yi were both controlling and manipulative in a lot of the eps the pacing for the second couple was frustrating. i wished the 3rd couple got more screen time i loved syn with my heart but nuea just annoyed me a lot with the whole liking kuea but also liking syn??.

acting/cast: the acting from main characters to support characters was great. i feel bad for the actors to be given these type of roles especially since zee has always shined as an actor. there were a few things that could of improved. between all 3 couples the chemistry flowed naturally on and off screen. Nu New for being his first ever drama i didn't except much from him but he surprised me there is a few things he can improve on but overall hes a better actor than most experienced actors.

music: nu news voice is beautiful normally i would of skipped the singing parts as they are hard to watch but i really did like it and cried at one of the songs. the intro song is super catchy just overall 10/10 on the music.

re-watch value: would i watch it again? maybe but i would probably skip it to the better parts i find it hard to re-watch dramas so its a no from me

overall: i would of given it a 7.5/8 but looking at other shows, its not a horrible show but ive seen worse

Holy Smoke ....

So I watched Drama Ongoing and really at times, having to wait for the next episode after a week was really torturer.

I loved this drama and was really looking forward to it, mainly because of Zee. And boy did he not disappoint, I am just going to put out here that man sure knows how to Kiss!!!

The story was for this BL was a little different in the sense that there were already engaged and fixed up to be married from a very young age, by the grandparents, however as time went and they grew up, things obviously changed, and this is where I found it really interesting, you had Kuea who showed a bit of split personality, admitting I did prefer him a little more on the grown up side, instead of the babyish doll side, for me that was the only thing that was a let down on this drama, but his character does develop a little after they move in, and he does not come across so babyish.

The second ML well it was really good to see them again after Y destiny and they way they have matured and grown, the only thing here that kind of let me down, was that we did not get see the real reason behind the loss of memory for diao? but they were well matched and really looked together.

The series addresses the importance of equal marriage and also addresses the prejudice and social judgment under two people with a large age difference in a relationship. Showing that society still does not know how to respect differences. Finally, for me it is a series with quality, full of love between the characters, and with very important messages for today's society.

The Chemistry of both these Leads were amazing on holy smoke the Kiss and Sex scenes DAM they left you Breathless!!!! However, I gotta say my favorite kiss of this show (and it was VERY kissy), was actually Syn and Nuea. Adorable. I wish we had gotten more of these two.

The Music was totally amazing, have got that added to my PList!!!

Overall : This BL Drama was really well executed and the guys were well matched and showed the love across to us... Definitely deserves a Re Watch !!!

An Entertaining BL Overall

I did enjoy Cutie Pie over other BLs that aired this season. It was definitely one of the quality series with a high budget, but story-wise it did have it’s flaws. I don’t mind miscommunication in a series for some added drama, but if the plot dwells on it too much throughout the series it gets frustrating to watch.

For the pairings I have to say the big age gap (9 years) does show for ZeeNew. I can’t lie and say that Nunew doesn’t look too young for Zee because he does imo. But Zee in the end is amazing at being able to make whoever his ship is work out pretty well. MaxNat… As handsome as Max is and adorable Nat is I still don’t feel this ship so much. Nat’s acting is still so so to me. MaxNat also have a 9 year age gap like ZeeNew but somehow you feel a bit uncomfortable watching their intimate scenes because Nat is 19 and pretty baby-faced. Love them though! I absolutely fell for NuerSyn and hope TutorYim get a series of their own asap!

Negatives aside the OST was fantastic! The music was the best part that made the series the most fun to watch for me. Nunew has such a beautiful voice and is an amazing singer. I loved the parts when Kirin performs. Pretty much every sing OST for Cutie Pie was great. He also did a great job with his acting for his first BL drama. This was definitely a start for Nunew and definitely looking forward to seeing more from him.

I do have to say Domundi/Mandee does produce quality dramas compared to other productions. I look forward to Middleman’s Love and Bed Friend next!

It shows interesting and important topics, such as communication between couples and being yourself without hiding your tastes, as for the connection of the characters I feel they have good chemistry since the scenes are seen naturally, the osts that it contains are very beautiful since they represent the feelings of the people with form pass the episodes, the stage is very visual, also the costumes fits perfectly with the aesthetics of the drama, In conclusion, you can see the series by your criteria, in my perspective it is an extremely exciting and entertaining series

A SERIES THAT SUCCESFUL TURNED OUT HOW IT SELLS ITSELF TO BE.

I started this series not expecting much from it, but I ended up being hooked since the first part of the first episode. Now, my only issue with this is finding a way to cope up with the void it will leave within two weeks. My Sunday mornings will never be the same again.

Disclaimer: When I began watching this series, I didn't know Zee, Domundi and Aoftionz, so it's safe to say that I began watching this with brand new eyes and with no prejudice.

Cutie Pie is exactly what it advertised itself to be, so if you're looking for something much more complex, dramatic, or mind-boggling, and heavy, THIS ISN'T THE SERIES FOR YOU. But if you want something different from the usual conflict of the main couples being broken up by a third party or another force outside the relationship, then Cutie Pie is a breath of fresh air.

SPOILERS:

We often joke about the dreaded episode eleven curse (or the second to the last episode curse), where the main characters break up before the eventual happy ending. In Cutie Pie, the break up happens on the very first episode, when Kuea, upon hearing from Lian that the latter doesn't love him, asked to break off their engagement. Yes, we have heartbreak at the very beginning. But we were also introduced to the nature of their relationship prior to this. Basically, they were engaged. Kuea love his fiance so much but is afraid that Lian, someone he views as perfectionist, could never accept him for who he really is (he likes superbike, singing and playing drum, and he's studying automotive engineering). In order to please his fiance, Kuea created a facade of a prim and proper version of himself. In contrast, we have Lian, who doesn't seem to care about his fiance much, or even at all, and yet, in the second episode, he seemed upset that Kuea, for the first time, didn't answer and return his call.

The writers did a good job into making us feel more about Kuea in the first couple of episodes, and at the same time, showing just tiny bits and glimpses of Lian's background and personality to keep us intrigued about him. His conversations with his bestfriend Yi, that flashback conversation with his father kept me from thinking that he was just an asshole who had a change of heart and suddenly fell mutually in love with his fiance. Lian turned out to be far from how Kuea and and the audience initially saw him to be. Instead of the confident and perfectionist CEO, he is also a person who hides behind a facade because he was scared that Kuea, who came from old money, wouldn't be proud of him, a former ice delivery boy, as his fiance.

This is what I mean when I said that's it's a breathe of fresh air. This time, we don't have ex-relationships, parents, new girl or new boy, trying to break couples up. We just have our main leads who need to figure out that they didn't even need another version of themselves.

Some highlights that are worth mentioning.

THE FIRST KISS: I want to start by acknowledging this scene as what it is. It's DubCon because Kuea was drunk. The series tried it's best to change a lot of aspects in the novel that cross that bridge, but I guess, it wasn't really that easy to remove, or change this scene. While it did made me a bit uncomfortable, the events leading up to that scene made it bearable to me. Prior to that, we have a heartbroken Kuea who broke off the engagement, performed a song in a bar about how he was moving on to find someone who will love him for who he is. And yet, that very same Kuea drunkenly confessed that he doesn't really want to break off the engagement because he really loves Lian. And then there's Lian, finally realizing that he made a mistake by saying something that he didn't mean. The kiss, I believe, is his effort to comfort Kuea and apologize as well, although it was pointless, considering that Kuea wasn't even sure it was him because well, he was drunk. The most important thing we got from this scene is the confirmation of Kuea's real feelings.

MOVING IN TOGETHER: I see a lot of comments about how Lian was controlling Kuea's behavior and preventing him from enjoying his hobbies when he worked to get Kuea to move in with him, but honestly, that was the opposite of what he wanted to do. Lian doesn't want him stop being himself. Rather, he wanted Kuea to be himself in front of him as well. The thing I appreciate about this is that Lian could have easily confronted Kuea about those secrets, but instead, he acknowledged that he also wasn't showing his real self to Kuea. Instead of forcing Kuea, Lian decided to reveal himself, bit by bit, until Kuea feels comfortable enough to reveal who he really is as well. This is the point in the story when I grow to appreciate Lian more.

THE FIRST TIME: THIS IS PROBABLY THE MOST BEAUTIFULLY SHOT LOVE SCENE I HAVE EVER SEEN IN A BL SERIES (And it is shares it's top spot with YiDiao from ep 10), but that isn't really the best part. First, I am happy with the change that the made from the novel where their first time together involves a really drunk Kuea. Consent was made clear, and Lian made sure to ask about it more than once. I also love that prior to the actual love scene, they were finally able to talk about previous conflict such as the drunken night kiss and the truth about the "I don't love you" conflict. I just love how, instead of excusing what happened, Lian admitted and acknowledged that that was a wrong move and actually showed remorse.

Now, this series may not be perfect. At ep 10, I admit that I am a bit disappointed that Kuea is still not over his "Hia doesn't love me" phase. This is something that I wish had already been over at episode 8.

Some other minor things worth mentioning:

YiDiao/The secondary ship: the bestfriend of the main lead is also engaged to the bestfriend of the other main lead. While this might seem repetitive, The YiDiao and LianKuea is both similar and different at the same time. Similar because it both follows the formula where the older guy in the relationship was presented as cold and uncaring at the beginning. I remember starting the show being put off by Yi's demanding nature of knowing Diao's whereabouts, but I'm glad that I am able to power through and not skip their scenes. Again, like Lian, his true character wasn't how he was presented in the beginning. Diao as well. He seems like the type to allow people to walk all over him but as the story progresses, I learned that he's actually one of the strongest character in this show. He's that person who's the least afraid to say what he wants and what's on his mind. I get that the resolution for their relationship isn't perfect, but a part of me is glad that it's not, as I am hoping for their own series. I hope it will happen.

The Kuea/Diao and Lian/Yi friendship: I just love how sweet the relationship is between Kuea and Diao, with them always ready to drop everything with one SOS message. Meanwhile, we have Lian/Yi, their banters on who's doing worse un their relationship, and their brutally frank way of telling the others that they're doing wrong.

The tackling of some issues: as early as the first episode, we got to hear one of the main characters talk about how outdated it is for media to still be using LGBTQ members only for comic relief. That wasn't the last of it the show also talked about issues such as marriage equality and establishing boundaries between friends. Maybe, my expectations weren't that high but I just didn't expect to see much about this in Cutie Pie. I'm impress.

Over all, this show is entertaining for me, and I can already see myself going back to this once it's done.

Edit: I finished watching. The ending exceeded my expectation. One of tje best and most satisfying ending I have seen.
