The series had many plot holes and hardly any logic, some examples would be in the first episode Mork and Tee hated each other but then just an episode later suddenly liked each other and were getting along great for no given reason. It was also implied in the second episode that 3 years have passed, so I figured they meant this episode is based 3 years after the last one, but no it's just meaning that they were friends 3 years ago and their friendship ended due to Mork doing something bad to Tee, but it's weird that they only addressed this in episode 2 after instantaneously going from hating each other to liking each other. It should have been addressed in the first episode.

Next few episodes were good, no dumb drama, everything is making sense and there's many cute and sweet scenes, then episode 6 came along and everything went downhill. Mork went on a vacation with Tee without informing his family, Mork's Brother got worried thinking Mork was missing so he called Tee asking if he was with Mork, Tee said no because they were in an argument at this point in time so Mork had left to get some space.

Instead of Mork's Brother trying to contact Mork or contacting Tee many more times, within just a matter of hours he's informing news stations and social media that his Brother is missing which is dumb because even police don't start searching that fast.

At some point Mork comes back and it's being implied he could get arrested and expelled from school because CCTV footage of Mork and Tee kissing on their vacation got released. It makes no sense though because kissing in public isn't illegal in Thailand, so why would he get arrested? It was implied he could get expelled cause he was in the school uniform while kissing which would leave a negative impact on the school, but it doesn't make sense why kissing would do that. Besides it was never explained how or why the footage got on the news to begin with. Plus Mork's friends blamed Tee acting like the kiss was his fault which doesn't make sense as the kiss was consensual completely.

Going back to what I said about the argument Mork and Tee were having, it was implied Tee didn't want a sexual relationship with Mork and Mork was alright with that, but then he found condoms in Tee's pocket and got mad and left. It was confusing but then it was implied that Mork doesn't want sex but Tee does, when before it was the opposite. So I don't understand that whatsoever, why did it change suddenly? First Tee doesn't want sex and Mork does, now Tee wants sex and Mork doesn't? The situation never was explained.

Going to the next plot hole, Tee ended up eating shrimp Mork fed him and only after eating it he tells Mork he is allergic to it and will most probably have a reaction and start suffocating, yet despite this Tee is driving the car when he could suffocate at any moment, why was Mork not driving and instead in the passenger seat? Plus Tee dropped Mork off at school meaning he now was alone driving in a car when he could suffocate at any moment, gee real smart (not). He told Mork he would take medicine once home but he clearly didn't (for no given reason) because a day later during a performance he fainted due to the allergic reaction which doesn't make sense, it wouldn't happen an entire day later and you don't just suddenly faint like that.

Another plot hole, but smaller, is they were having another drama at some point but then in the next episode weren't having any at all and were hanging out as though nothing bad ever happened. Legit just never addressed the issue at all.

The last segment of the last episode was heavily confusing, and didn't make much sense, I had to read comments to figure out what the hell just happened. Basically in the end it was implied Mork was taking Tee with him to study abroad, but it wasn't really explained well at all. The writing was really bad to say the least.

The production quality wasn't bad in my opinion, but also not good, just so-so, the main problem was the audio, many times the mic was muffled or there was a bunch of annoying background sounds, and the acting was alright but you can tell they don't have much experience. I'm glad I watched the show because despite the bad writing the relationship was very sweet and genuine, no cheating or any of that. You can feel chemistry between the 2 and tell they truly love each other, it felt very real, plus the series did have many realistic problems that so many people have to deal with in real life, but then it also had many fluffy and cute moments. A healthy dosage of both. I think if you watch it in the end you'll be glad you did even with it's plot holes. Let's be real, most boy love series / movies do have many plot holes and a lot of illogical writing, it's hard to find one that don't have any of that.

The first con to this series is the pacing was severely rushed throughout the series as if the writers wanted to cram in as much from the book as they could (quantity over quality). I understand that the writers only had four episodes to work with, but that makes it all the more important to carefully select which scenes from the novel to adapt, make sure the writing is super tight, and that every single word and interaction has meaning behind it so that not a second is wasted.

Bar's character was very confusing to me because from the very first episode we see Gun constantly force himself into Bar's life, control who Bar can and can't speak to while Bar responds with looks of disgust, discomfort, and flat-out refusal.
Yet on the other hand even though Bar didn't seem to show interest with those nasty faces towards Gun, he would offer Gun to come to dinner with him, or he would accept Gun's rides to school even though he didn't seem to want it going by his expressions. Bar's character is really hard to read because the way he looks and acts around Gun seems to go against the way he's actually feeling around Gun. It's clear he wants to be around him even though he refuses him. He's not an easy character to read and I presume this is due to bad writing.

Moving on to the acting which also relates to Bar's behavior of one minute giving Gun the refusal face to the next minute riding with him in a car or willingly hanging out with him. It feels very forced and not natural whatsoever. The chemistry between the 2 boys for me just doesn't exist until the very last episode. Everything about them feels uncomfortable to watch and very awkward, some scenes you might even find yourself skipping.
The acting on both ends simply just wasn't good whatsoever.

The problem with Gun in here is the fact that he seems somewhat controlling, before they got in a relationship and even after he was always making Bar's decisions for him without even hearing Bar's say in it all. When Bar's friends ask him to go to the bar together, instead of letting Bar answer, Gun just says "no he's not going" and in that regard I don't respect him, but in the regard I do respect him in is he's very good about consent during kissing or sexual activity, you can tell he truly cares about the comfort of his boyfriend, which brings me to the fourth episode where their actually a couple. Now I'll tell you why I enjoyed the episode, not only because of the consent (which many series don't have), but also because we saw Bar's mature side.

When Gun was acting childish and only thinking about missing Bar, wanting to be around Bar, even if that means skipping class and forgetting responsibilities, Bar brings him back to his senses and tries to help him think about his own future and love himself and not only worry about spending time together. He helps teach him to be responsible and not only think about their relationship. It shows he actually cares about his boyfriends future and wellbeing. Bar is very straightforward and uses common sense while also being loving, caring and kind.
Something I will point out is if you are for natural cute kissing scenes, this isn't the right series for you, the kisses here are barely pecks.

Now something I loved about the series from it's start to finish is when Gun & Bar were upset about something and had a problem they didn't just avoid each other and create a bunch of unnecessary drama as most other series do, instead if they noticed one was upset or had an issue they talked to each other about it and worked things out right then and there and understood each other. Communication is the number one thing boy love series lack in my opinion, so it's nice to see a change. Bar & Gun properly communicate and disagree, without insulting each other or fighting which is a rare thing to see.

Last but not least, there were scenes that they blatantly copied from more popular boy love series word for word, action for action which bothered me, and I also didn't like the typical thing of one going from straight to gay within an instant, the series clearly isn't very original but most really aren't. Also the production quality was not very good. That's all I have to say, I spent over an hour putting this together so I hope it helped as many people as it could. I'm glad I watched it because the last episode made it worth it, but all in all I wouldn't recommend it.

Don't waste your time

Unfortunately I cannot review this film because it simply shouldn't exist. Do not waste your time with this. The story consists of fucked up characters who do not deserve life, the one is a total scumbag slut who cheats on everybody he is in a relationship with, plus he's practically a sociopath, and a sore loser. The other one is simply a terrible person for having sex with a married man, plus in general he's also a complete loser of man. Other than the terrible story that should not be promoted, the acting is pretty good, the videography is good but definitely needs improvement, and it's a pretty slow boring movie for the most part. Plus there is so much detailed porn in this film and no love, that the creators may as well have just created a porno.

I'm going to start this review with the first thing about this series that bothered me, which was the fact that the series main couple was meant to be Apo & Waii, yet the side couples got way more screen time then they did. The second thing that bothered me was the fact that all the side couples are straight (except one which isn't actually a couple until the last 9 minutes of the series), because of this I felt more like I was watching a straight romance with a gay side couple rather than a boy love.

The third thing that bothered me was the 2 female lead characters of the series were extremely unlikable. The one was a bully physically and emotionally, she didn't seem to care about the way others felt, as she was also very manipulative and tried turning a straight girl to a lesbian which is extremely wrong. The second girl was very rude and tried to ruin an entire swimming club just because one person who was in the club years ago hurt her feelings, which doesn't make much sense to me, especially considering that person is no longer in the club.

Moving on to my fourth problem, Waii. The main character we are all meant to like is extremely unlikeable. First of all he is very selfish and doesn't seem to care about the way others feel until around the ending of the series, second of all he cheated on his girlfriend physically and emotionally with Apo, even though she was a good girlfriend and did no wrong to him. When she found out about this she gave him the chance to break up with her then and there, but he didn't, he told her he would stop pursuing Apo, Apo overheard this and his heart was shattered, (rightfully so, as he shouldn't have been involved with a man who was already in a relationship), but then Waii still kept pursuing Apo even though he told his girlfriend he wouldn't, so he was giving them both false hope unfortunately and in the end Apo & Waii worked out but his girlfriend had a shattered heart and Waii didn't care.

Coming to my next problem, there was a scene where Waii almost raped Apo, and even though he didn't, the situation never got brought up again. Waii never took responsibility for that and I just can't grasp the fact we are meant to like the character who isn't just a cheater, but almost traumatized somebody in that way and didn't even care about it and take responsibility.

Speaking of Apo, even though he for the most part seems to be a sweet person, I can't help but dislike him for kissing a man who was already in a relationship with somebody else and not caring at all.

In general there was a bunch of stupid and unnecessary drama in the series that was uncalled for and didn't make sense because it could have been solved so easily, so I think the writing could have been improved a lot.

Last but not least, the ending felt very rushed. I felt as though we needed a whole episode for the ending instead of a 9 minute segment. They never explained why Apo left for a whole year to study abroad just to come back? In conclusion it was probably him giving Waii time to figure out who he actually wanted to be with in life, but they didn't exactly explain it well. And what made Waii's Father's boyfriend decide to come back after a year also? That wasn't explained. How did the relationship with the gay side couple come to be? We just hear in the last episode that their together but we didn't get to see the progression of the couple, or any of the couples actually, which I disliked.

It had cute moments in it I liked, but overall I wouldn't recommend it unless you have watched all good boy love series / movies and are desperate for ones to watch.

The only pros were good acting, good production quality, it was not slow paced nor fast, and it was quite entertaining even though many things didn't make sense and were pathetic.
