LOVESEA? MORE LIKE LOVESNOOZE, TBH.
Listen, FortPeat is my ultimate ride-or-die duo. Like, Love in the Air? ICONIC. The drama, the pain, the absolute fireworks. So naturally, when I heard they’d be serving us main couple realness in LoveSea, I was like, “YES, FINALLY, RAIN ON ME.” Instead, I got a drizzle. A freaking drizzle, girl.

CHARACTERS THAT DESERVED BETTER:
Tongrak (Peat) is supposed to be that cold, sassy, sleeps-around-for-inspiration baddie, and while he’s giving sass, he’s also giving... confusion? Like, what’s the deal with his backstory? One second, he’s in the city. Next, he’s on an island trying to vibe and write his novel. Where’s the “how” and “why”? And don’t even get me started on his first meeting with Mahasamut. The build-up? Non-existent. BLINK, and they’re already bickering.
Mahasamut (Fort) is another story. He’s supposed to be laid-back and charming (with a bite, we love a man who bites), but he feels like Prapai’s low-energy cousin. Fort’s acting skills are wasted on this basic enemies-to-lovers trope. GIVE HIM SOMETHING JUICY. GIVE HIM COMPLEXITY. WE KNOW HE CAN HANDLE IT.
---
THE SIDE PAIRING THAT SHOULD’VE BEEN A BACKGROUND EXTRA:
Vivi and Khaimuk. Sigh. Okay, I’m all for girlxgirl pairings when they’re done right ( Last Twilight, I SEE YOU). But ViviKhaimuk? It’s a big fat no for me. Vivi is borderline obsessive, and Khaimuk is just… there. The whole dynamic screams cringe, with cutesy PDA overload and zero storyline. Like, sis, we deserve better lesbian rep than this.
---
A PLOT THAT GOT LOST AT SEA:
The concept had potential: hot enemies-to-lovers on a tropical island? YES, PLEASE. But the execution? A mess. Mahasamut’s whole mission to make Tongrak fall in love with him was cute in theory, but the lack of depth killed it. The trauma? Unfolded in the most lazy, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it way possible. I wanted tension. I wanted heartbreak. Instead, I got half-baked drama and a sprinkle of spice to keep me awake.
And let’s talk about the spicy scenes. They’re good, don’t get me wrong, but compared to Love in the Air? Meh. I wanted hurricanes, not soft drizzle kisses and awkward pauses. GIVE ME PASSION.

REDEEMING QUALITIES (AKA WHAT SAVED THIS TRAINWRECK):
The OST is fire. Period. It’s giving tropical beach vibes and made me want to book a one-way ticket to Krabi. And the acting? Fort and Peat carried this series on their backs. Even with a subpar script, they gave it their all. We don’t deserve them, honestly.
---
FINAL THOUGHTS:
This series is like that one friend who shows up late to the party and doesn’t bring any snacks. You love them, but you’re also annoyed. FortPeat deserved a better plot and better characters because their talent is TOO GOOD for this basic fluff.
8.5/10. The .5 is for Fort’s jawline and Peat’s sass. Will I rewatch? Probably not. Will I still ride or die for FortPeat? Always. But MeMindY, girl, we need to talk. Do better. 💀
