THIS DRAMA WAS SO POWERFUL

GMMTV has produced a drama that has created an almost impossible standard for other dramas.

Firstly the acting in this drama was superb.....especially Gun. Being able to portray a set of twin brothers so differently is not an easy task but he did it in a way that seemed easy. Both Off and Gun are both usually acting in softer...lighter dramas so taking on the roles of Black/White and Sean was a test on their acting skills and they definitely passed with flying colors.The supportimg cast also did their jobs exceptionally well and made the entire watch time a treat.

The plot...though the synopsis talks about White trying to unmask who hurt his brother the main plot of this drama was the gang members trying to expose the dirty tricks of an influential businessman and expose the corrupt system in Thailand. This was an extremely sensitive topic to take on especially with the backlash both the director and actors could face but they did take on that challenge and they executed it perfectly...this particular plot point was also able to relate to almost all viewers because most countries are similar in the sense that persons with power and influence usually get the last laugh.

This drama was also able to bring out all the emotions a human can have....happiness.... sadness...anger.....grief.....jealousy (because of that cute ass couple)...and so much more....in one episode I cried...laughed...felt anger...and pure disbelief.

The editing......OH MY GOD THE EDITING...this drama's editing team did its job so well... especially when both Black and White (Gun's characters) had to appear on screen together....I genuinely began questioning if Gun had a secret twin brother we didn't know about.

The cinematography of this drama was emmaculate as well. The fact that they actually had a scene with the two main characters under a pride flag screaming about equality... chef's kiss.

I also appreciated the fact that skin smoothing wasn't used in this drama. You were able to see the character's "flaws".... like their pores and acne and it showed them not in a unnaturally perfect way that's impossible to achieve but in a natural perfection thay we were truly able to appreciate.

Finally the pacing of this drama was also really well done...I didn't feel as if the drama slowed down or rushed itself at anytime....it felt like everything that happened was happening at the exact right time. The reveals....the shocks....the twist and turns...the realtionships.....the kisses everything felt realistic as if I were a fly on the wall in these character's lives.

I recommend this drama to any drama lover out there....wether your interested in OffGun....BL...Action...Suspense or just anything from Thailand. This drama is perfect for any drama watcher.

All in all if I could give this drama 100000000000/10 I would.
