No One Talk To Me About This; I'm Senstive

I really enjoyed this drama! It was the perfect length and captured everything very nicely - I would've given it higher but Chonlatee saying that he would be called the 'godfather' of Tonhon's child made me physically uncomfortable so... They really amped up the drama and drew it out in a wonderfully painful way (I love slow burn, sue me) to the point where I wondered if they were just masochists. Overall, they were cuties and seeing Mike and Top together always makes life shine just a little brighter - I love them being plotting and planning gays they really made the relationship happen because these naive bozos for main characters really weren't making any first moves. I think Pod is a great actor and he really shines in the projects I have seen him in so far.

Uhm Wow

The acting of the two main character's and their relationship was wonderful and complex (and I was also very happy to see Prem again as See-Eiw's older brother). Their relationship played with my heart in almost every way and though it wasn't flawless, I guess not many things are. Cake receiving blessings for his relationship with See-Eiw from the family was so meaningful to me, as it was very natural and warmly delivered. However, major flaws include the main character's sister falling in love with a fifteen year old - this was framed as though she was the victim of societal bullying when really she's actually a creep. Why her friend framed their 'relationship' the way it is truly baffles me and sometimes it was too hard to watch the director make this seem as if she was the victim of this situation - she was right to stay away from a high schooler and to make an entire plot about her being torn up about it just made me severely uncomfortable. Otherwise, the only other thing this show suffered from was a bit of slow pacing in the beginning as well as the end being a full no smoking commercial. See-Eiw's father's addiction was treated poorly, as if it wasn't an addiction and I think that this topic as well as the sister's relationship should have been treated much more delicately due to their sensitive nature. Rating this is complicated, and even though my rating doesn't seem to reflect it, I did enjoy watching this show, though sometimes hard to watch or slow, in the end I don't regret it.

A Generally Pessimistic Review of One of My Favourites

I love all the characters except Aey, his crying became excessive to the point where I would dread not just his singular scenes but any one that involved his story arch. I feel like he could have definitely been written better, especially with the influence of Mhok and Tiffy by his side. I loved Hin as a side character as he always brought something to the scenes he was in, he was a passionate friend and writer who didn't need to end up with someone to feel fulfilled as a character. The last episode really brought this over the top, I felt like the pacing and longing was just enough to keep me wanting to watch. This also highlighted the toxicity of the BL industry including its production, audiences, actors, etc. while still finding time to give us a strong and heart-warming story arch and back story for the main couple with obstacles from within the industry or their families rather than over-done cheating accusations or crazy misunderstandings. I LOVE this series, it will definitely go down as one of my favourites!
