SOTUS was my first BL and I totally fell for this couple as well as developed a massive crush on Krist. So this was the second ever BL.

I loved it because it was them rather than for the storyline.

I think a lot of the boring stuff that happened at Arthit’s workplace could’ve been cut out and replaced with more Arthit/Kongpob screen time! Some of that was dull, I mean who cares about parts for a plastic grill? Why did Arthit have to have such a boring job? Come on writers, do what you’re paid for!

Also, come on, a bit more snogging between the two wouldn’t have gone amiss. It was so frustrating - even if Arthit’s character didn’t want PDA then behind closed doors it would be nice!

I had been hoping for some Wad/Prem action as well, but Wad ‘mysteriously’ had to go and care for his dad so wasn’t in this show. Shame!

I find it odd that a couple of years into a relationship that Arthit wouldn’t even know that Kongpob's dad was the boss of some big company. Fair enough that their families still didn’t know about them but surely you’d mention it? I’d like to have known moire about Arthit’s family too but no mention is ever made.

My heart broke when they parted for a while - stupid Arthit - but when they made up again I fell in love with them all over again.

Despite my complaining there was no Wad/Prem, SOTUS didn’t have the pointless side couples like other shows I’ve discovered since seem to have too many of. One is fine. SOTUS S had some half-arsed attempts at side coupling: Yong and the other apprentice engineer, Nai, making pie eyes at one another but it didn’t come to much (and that Yong guy is hot in other things but that moustache he has in this does him no favours), and Tew and that whiny kid, Dae, who turns out to be Arthit’s boss’s son - that just made Tew look like a creeper. Also Earth and Todd that was pointless. Less of this and more of the main couple please! More of Arthit and Kongpob’s university friends would be nice too.

Obviously I will watch again, I love my boys, but I may skip most of the unnecessary side stuff that added nothing.
