Ignore that low rating, it's 10/10!
If you watch this for nothing else, watch it for the final episode. Although... it's flipping amazing anyways.
How do people rate this so low?! Was it the homophobia? Because I can see that, although we had people loudly voicing support for LGBTQ+ there was quite a lot of homophobia. That being said, we have dealt with that in other shows and not condemned it for that. And if that isn't the reason, I have no idea what it could be. Was it the pandemic? Was everyone still just angry at the world? I really just don't get it. I mean.... I usually rate shows a little lower than average or about the average. But this was a 10/10 for me.
I flipping loved this show! It was hilarious! It was a great plot, and Chonlatee was everything! The friends were AMAZING! Every character played their role so well! I was laughing so much. I LOVED this friends to lovers trope, I loved the journey, and I routed for Chonlatee the entire time! I loved the differences between our two main characters. I loved how right away Tonhon was treating Chonlatee as if not a day had passed. Their first meeting? Hilarious! Their first sleepover? Hilarious! Everything he did was just so satisfying.
And can we give this series credit for not having Tonhon break up with his girlfriend FOR Chonlatee! He was heartbroken BEFORE he ran into him again (and while heartbroken he ran back to his 'home' if that tells you anything) and then things went from there. That is SO refreshing. Look at Love Mechanics, although I loved that show, I couldn't bare to watch another show where the GF card gets dragged along for far to long!
One of my big issues in this show was Ton and his feelings. When Ton was faced with a truth and suddenly seemed to change so much, it felt unrealistic. Buuuuuuut after everything played out, his reactions made SO much sense! I even want to go rewatch it right after finishing it to see the series in a whole new light!
There is not one thing in this show I disliked, and THAT is very, VERY rare for me.
Oh and let's not forget Na! We love you Neo! and Gunsmile, sad to see you in this role but you did great! Mike, TopTap, a pleasure as always. ALSO this is SUCH a change in character for Khaotung! I saw one episode of Eclipse and him in 2gether and he seemed SO different here. I love him the most in this one but what a versatile actor! And Pod! I actually wasn't a huge fan of him in Dark Blue Kiss but LOVED him in this one! Okay at first I thought he was a bit dense but again, I have to go back and watch the show in a new light to truly see his entire character now!
GMMTV, a pleasure as always.
I have many more thoughts but I have to stop somewhere!!
Okay one more thing! When Ton was apologizing LOL OHMYGOD.
Me:
"HE DID NOT JUST DEHEAD THAT TEDDY BEAR AHAHAHHAHA
THREW THE WHOLE GARBAGE AT HIM HAHAHAH
Oh you're hot? HERES A BUCKET OF WATER AHHAHAHHA
THAT EPISODE KILLLLLED ME! I had to rewatch so many times and started crying I was laughing so hard!!
