Attraction of opposites student drama , that is cute and funny. Love v sausages.

If you are looking for something earnest indepth, like the Eight Sense or Tokyo in April, this is not for you. If you want something to watch that is has charectors that you would like to meet, that is not medodramatic, full of lack of communication,and angest,and gives you a smile, then you might like it.
The worst thing about this is the title, which gives you no idea of the content, and the opening episode which sets the plot, get past that and its very enjoyable.
There are a lot of poor reviews for this, mainly about the plot. It's not Kinn Porche, which is plot dense, its charm is its a normal tale of love, not a hyped up version, full of tortured longing looks and misunderstandings. Having working with a lot of young male students, the obession with food( they will know the number of every fast food outlet that will deliver), sex, alcohol, sport and DnD type games is accurate.

One ML is tall, handsome, rich, smart and a seriel bed hopper, so doesn't make a lot of effort in relationships, and a bit of a neat freak.
The other male lead, is cute, a bit of a romantic, but lives his life a mess disorganised clutter, obessed with food, constantly losing things and himself, and his friends shepherd him constantly.

This could be a standard student drama if it wasn't for the writing and particulary the comic performance of , Ping Krittanun Aunchananunhe, the charector could be the really annoying but its played with charm. I haven't seen a charector written like this since Lorrelei Lee in Gentleman Prefer Blondes(1953),' I can be smart when it's important' He looks fluffy on the outside but actually covers up that he is astute so he thinks things through, and has a steel crow bar for a spine, and gets his own way by being either charmingly befuddled or very direct about what he wants. So the main comedy is that the Mr Cool ends up in often exasperated submission.

The story moves a long well, all misunderstanding and the villians plot are solved quickly. The plot is mainly how their realationship changes and deepens, and having consumed a lot of these student dramas recently, still trying to get over Weak Class Hero, I think this is much better than Bad Buddy, which mainly consists of two people being pretty aweful to each other most of the time, and full of the love hate cliches. The realtionship in this drama based on communication and honesty.

Episode 5, is my favorite, it covers raiding the all you can eat buffet, the enevertable drunk outcome, a frank discussion of sex scene, and then the head down the toilet. In all great evening out.

Its a refreshing change from the what seems the constant theme of sexual and student bullying of males and females that seems to be in just about every student drama, and the idea that to show you like someone you have to be nasty to them. The supporting charectors are nice supportive people, even the females!
Not often I give a 10.
