A mess..

I had high hopes for this drama since it had a really strong start, the actresses are very talented, the budget is good and the premise had really good potential, the first few episodes were very beautiful and I expected the whole series to continue down this path.. Boy oh boy was I wrong.

What I liked: The acting was great, LingOrm give it their all and it shows.
The meet cute was very adorable and I loved when LadaEarn first got together, they were sweet and it put a smile on my face.
Suzie, oh how I love her, she's one of my favorite characters in thai dramas, not to mention very relatable (I wish she had more screentime).
Tan is an incredible character and an amazing friend to Lada, I absolutely loved seeing their friendship and I loved seeing Tan as a character, one of the redeeming points of the story in my opinion.

What I disliked: Where do I even start? Both the female leads disregard so many boundaries but I'll let that slide since it's what moves the story forward.
Earn doesn't seem to really understand the consequences of her actions even when Tan is kind enough to give her an explanation of why what she does hurts Lada so much, but yes, I get it, it's the trauma of letting her girlfriend go too easily that prompts her to move forward despite everything.
Lada is truly the one I do not understand, acting cold is one thing, but always giving Earn hope and constantly fueling this push and pull between them is another. It was incredibly painful watching her barge into Earn's house and destroy the puzzle, she was being abusive, saying horrible things without even really knowing what was going on, and how was this resolved? She just apologized in a half-assed way and Earn immediately gave in, what lesson are we supposed to take away from this?
Honestly LadaEarn spend more time arguing and having conflict than being happy, how am I supposed to root for them to get back together when I've seen them be sweet twice in the whole series?
Earn cries in basically every episode and at one point I stopped caring, I was just like "yup, she's crying again, should've known". I found myself not wanting them to get back together anymore, seriously, what they really need is therapy because there's clearly so many unresolved issues and traumas that prevent them from moving forward.
As for the other characters, I had never seen someone go through character development and then immediately back to their starting point in the span of an episode, Wisanu is one of a kind really.
Ratee is just a flat character, the popular mean girl added just for conflict, nothing much to say about her.
Engfah helping Earn but still being pushy and wanting a chance really rubbed me the wrong way, especially when they still tried to paint her as a good friend.
Lada's mother.. Do I really have to talk about it? I think there's no need, we've seen this characters in dramas so many times and it gets worse and worse every time. She magically recovered from homophobia after almost dying and so everybody is happy and everybody forgives her, worst of all it feels like Lada and Earn only got to be together because she allowed them by changing her mind. There's just so much wrong with this type of storyline.
8 episodes never felt so long, to be honest this could've just been a movie.
I watched TSOU with a friend and we got progressively more frustrated after each episode.
Seeing the potential, I'm just left being incredibly disappointed for what could have been.
