Not as good as others say it is

I’ll say what I like about the bl first before I start getting into what I dislike ab it just bc lol

First off, I really liked the scenes that just Noh and Phun shared as well as this bl being a bit of a slow burner. I really hate when the main couple gets together right in the middle of the series, because it ends up feeling rushed and honestly gets boring, but Love Sick took its time with the relationship development between the main couple which I do really appreciate. I do also know that this bl really started the making of Thai bls, which I completely respect and I am proud of the series for accomplishing that.

Now I’ll get into what I dislike about love sick lol

The main thing that really frustrated me with this bl is the amount of couples that are in it. Because of the amount of couples that were in it, the main couple I’d say only got maybe 15 mins of screen time each episode which isn’t a good thing at all considering they’re the main couple lmao. It got to the point where I found myself skipping through any scene that didn’t have either Noh or Phun in it because all the other scenes had little to no impact on the main plotline, so there was literally no point in watching it.
The second thing that bothered me was the acting, mostly on Captain’s part (actor for Noh). Maybe it could’ve been the writing for the character, but I didn’t really find his performance believable during the intimate scenes. The other actors too weren’t the best and I understand that for 95% cast this was their first ever role, but nonetheless it still bugged me. I’d have to say White (actor for Phun) had the best performance out of the whole cast, his acting felt really believable and it made me feel genuine sympathy and care for his character.
The last and final thing that annoyed me was the logic behind Noh not telling Pang that he doesn’t wanna be in a romantic relationship with her. I completely understand Phun not wanting to tell his girlfriend that he likes someone else since yknow that’s his girlfriend, but I don’t understand why Noh just cant tell Pang. It’s been a long time since I last watched this, so correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t remember Noh really caring for Pang’s feelings to the point where he wouldn’t want to tell her he likes someone else. I get that they’re young and stupid or whatever but there’s still no logic, at least to me, as to why he wouldn’t just tell her.

Anyways that about it lol, I was kinda disappointed when I first watch it bc of the amount of reviews hyping up the series but I think the reason why people love this series so much is because for majority of them it was their first bl which I completely get lol but if this bl were released this year it would not get this much hype lmao. Anyways watch it if you want to, it rlly isn’t that bad but just know that if you do watch it ignore the first like 20 mins it has no relevance to the story lmao
