I'm not a big fan of puppy love teenage BL but somehow this easy going low budget gradually got my attention as I was in the beginning only watching with my ears but eyes surfing my phone. The characters are developed gradually -- the comfy, from wealthy Chinese family Tee (and Gord) with poor barber's sons, Mork (and Morn)

The streetwise, "toughie", porn selling, low achiever Mork opens up gradually to Tee who always exude that old wealth easy comfy, teasy, ponderous look. Feelings blossom. Conversations accompanied by simple chords guitar music and street noise on Memorial bridge with river scenes --- lends it ordinariness. Both kids face challenges from their respective single parent.

None of the usual schemings or dramatic misunderstandings often in other dramas --- this one is just light & easy, albeit lots of plenty near faces close shot conversations, without excessive expressions. And minus all the usual heavy make up. Plus, always in school uniform and shorts --- how much more ordinary can it get? Can't even say they're drop dead good looking although I like Tee & Mork very much for their respective personality.

We can only hope all our intimate relationships never lose this youthfulness as time goes by.

Fist of all, the reason i watched this show was due to 2gether the series yes i know i know very bad of me but i knew this show for quite some time but could never find the time to watch it . so, when waiting for the next episodes of 2gether i took the time to watch the series as i found it's plot to be interesting as it is based on a pair of friends who knew each other but when Mork (Drake) tried to "touch"? i don't really know how to explain it but yea it did happen there was a little bit of a misunderstanding so Tee (Frank) rushed off without taking his spectacles and the very next day they saw each other but since tee was not able to see since he left his spectacles at Mork's (Drake) house he accidentally ignored Mork (Drake) thus causing them to be distant and the reason they were finally able to be friends again was due to Tee (Frank) going to Mork's (Drake) family barber and from there they begin getting closer like they used to and they eventually fell in love and become the happy couple we all know as MorkTee of DrakeFrank

I honestly believe that the show had extreme potential. It started so well and got me hooked but as weeks gone by I wonder what has gone wrong? I am by no means a Thai guy in which I assumed that the story was explicitly based on the internet novel; but even so I thought that its quite a mess.

You can clearly see that the production team is encountering issues and its evident while watching it.

Storyline is a blur, even the actors are in a blur. It lacked appeal along the way. It hurts that I didn't like it when I really want to like the show. I just can't.

First, I marked this as "Contains Spoilers" but I'll mark the spoiler before it appears, and be as vague as possible to avoid spoiling major plot points outright. It is simply too hard to explain the big issue with pretty much the biggest plot point of the show without spoiling part of it. You might be confused about the overall rating compared to the others, but honestly, there's more to the show than the things they let you rate.

This is the first time I've felt the need to review a show. It might be a bit longer/in depth than most, as that's the type of person I am. I only recently got into BL shows (started with SOTUS/S, then that spiraled into Make it Right/2, then He's Coming to Me, and now this. The others all were amazing, and I went into this apprehensive due to other reviews. However, I'm glad I gave it a chance.

Sound wise, I actually found the intro theme (and the intermission music) to be very catchy and made me smile. That was about all the music I really noticed in the show. However, there were quite a few scenes in the show where the sound guys were TERRIBLE. When the actors were on a bridge, for instance, their voices were muffled by the traffic or waves of the river. If I didn't have subtitles, I wouldn't have known they were talking. Whoever was in charge of the sound on this show did a terrible job at some points. This only occurred 3 or 4 times, but when it did, it was horrendous. The rest of the time, it was fine.

Acting Wise, I'm not sure why people think the acting was bad. I thought it was rather good. Definitely some of the better acting I've seen in Thai dramas. The chemistry between the leads didn't feel forced, and even in the sub-plots, the chemistry between actors felt natural. In the more serious scenes, like with Tee's mom, I felt the emotion, I didn't feel like I was watching a show. And with Tee's grandma, I smiled because it felt like a sincere grandma. That's hard to pull off in a TV show.

Plot Wise, this is where the show suffers. The premise itself is the first weak point. It makes zero sense to begin with. Why would Tee want Mork to be his pretend boyfriend to make Bambi jealous? To fix that mistake, you'd want to make Bambi NOT think you're gay, not make her think you ARE gay. So that made no sense to me.

One other thing is the fact that a LOT of things happen off camera in this show. It got very annoying. Tee's mom was notoriously bad at doing things off camera, as were Gord and Morn. They were pretty good at not having Tee and Mork do things off camera though. The worst part was when characters did do things off camera, the next time they popped up, the writers acted like we had witnessed everything they had done off camera. It was almost as if they filmed everything that had been done off camera, but then cut it from the final product, but then forgot to re-film it with the knowledge we didn't see it.

***SPOILERS START HERE***

I can't really explain this WITHOUT spoiling part of it, but I'll keep it as vague as I can. The BIG plot problem a lot of people (myself included) had with this show is the fact Mork got in a LOT of trouble for the kiss in Snowland. This turned into the main plot of at least half the series. It turns out though, that this is because of poor writing and adapting of the novel. In the novel, the scene they adapted is actually Tee performing a sexual act on Mork in that scene, but they adapted it as a kiss, but kept all of the repercussions. As such, as you can imagine, the repercussions of a sexual act in public make zero sense when applied to a kiss. I won't go into details of what happened, to avoid spoilers, but it is handled very oddly and nothing really makes sense.

Finally, the ending. I've noticed a trend on this site that most people want to know if there's a happy ending when they go into the reviews. Honestly, I don't even know. This was probably the biggest letdown of an ending I've seen in any show, BL or not. It just... ends. There's no closure, nothing. The show just ends. We're left in the dark. I won't explain, as again, I am trying to stay vague. That said, their story does continue in Our Skyy, Episode 3, and they do get a proper ending. However, if you want to know how it ends, you are welcome to read the reviews over there, as I don't wish to spoil that on a review here.

I regret not seeing this show the soonest

I regret not seeing this show sooner, since I was seeing mostly negative reviews about this show and that made me disinterested.
One lesson learned - reviews are HIGHLY SUBJECTIVE and I should always give a show a chance instead of basing my opinion from other people's comments.

Anyway, the only thing I don't like about this show is its technical aspect - to be particular about the editing and sound engineering. The loopholes and skips mentioned by others are caused by these careless editing and tying of stories. Many times also I had difficulty deciphering what they are trying to say (though I am not Thai but only watching subs) as the background noise is more prominent than the dialogues.

AND NOW THE PARTS I LOVE THE MOST:

Tee - I find this guy really cute and adorable. I saw him first in Twogether and I got hooked. :) His charisma is magnetic and his smile is disarming. Ok fine. Enough drooling.
Mork - I don't like him when I first saw him at Twogether, especially his haircut there (lol). But here he is so charming and so attuned with his emotions. I love that he is very vulnerable here and very affectionate towards Tee.
NOW - It goes without saying that I LOVE the chemistry between the two - it seems so natural and I feel the chills and shivers every time they look at each other.
The side couple, Gord and Morn, are as equally charming. I can't wait for them to grow up (predator alert!).

The story was a bit shaky at first, but it unfolded just fine towards the end. I like how it centered towards family rather than a third party. It was real and the script was good.

Overall, I rank Tee and Mork as one of my Top 3 BL Love teams, and this show one of my Top 5.

SO FOR YOU reading the comments before watching the show - give it a try. You won't regret it. :)

I'm giving My Tee an over all score of 7. But let me start by saying that I personally think Drake and Frank has this really sweet charismatic chemistry going on. It translate on screen and off screen. I don't know what it is, but they just look really compatible, and this is the strength of the series. The main leads are cast perfectly. I personally find Neo to be really cute but I think, he needs more acting training and classes to really bring out the essence of his character. But as a young Thai actor, this series is a great start for him. As he gain experience from other drama projects, his acting skills will also grow in time. There is nothing wrong with Neo, he's very handsome its just that I would like to see more emotions out of him. Acting work shops will bring these emotions out. As for Phuwin, there's something about his eyes that truly speaks to me, I think its called kindness. The reason why I gave My Tee a score of 7 is because I think there's a lot of confusing scenes and unnecessary plots that are highlighted all through out the series. I do love the scenes at the barber shop, and how the relationship between Drake and his dad are explored. I do love the fact that Drake in the series is technically comfortable with his feelings and how his brother understood this. As opposed to the situation between Tee and his mom. I do think that the writers was not able to give Tee more room to justify why the whole series is about his story. By throwing in a lot of confusing situations and scenes, the story line of Tee, which is suppose to be the main theme of the series was lost somewhere in those confusing and unnecesarry scenes. But don't get me wrong, My Tee is a beautiful BL story. It touches on the young leads perspective of love and where this love will take them.

Mork family is the best

Its a shame how much wrong it is edited. How poor written it is. There is so much things untolded that should be said.
Why I pointed it with a 7 then?
I would like the flashbacks more clear, the lineing of the story less messing but the sweet i feel in my heart with the bond between the most of the characters is incomensurable. They had me smiling the most of the time. Its just an emotional estament.

Lets go.

Positive things

Its a BL. You know what is about. What makes Cause you are my boy special?

How the parents react over tee and mork as a couple. Two point of view, two type of parents and two typed of fratern love. Mork's father is a full love and support kind of parent, while Tee's mother is a i want which i believe is the best for you no matter what you think kind of parent.

The natural awkward scenes are a YES for me. Being a teen in love is awkward. You will see. Is not cringe. Is intentional awkward. Absolutely relatable.

The cotidianity: the relationship between morn mork and their father is so real. Their situation, their conflicts in the barbershop: yes, thats real life. Believe me, i have a family business and i have never see any representation more accurate. They are always there. Their father ask them for help. Both sons care about the business a lot. You'll normally see the family business like one-time-thing, but here is fundamental part of the story.

Tee and Mork fight over silly things, CAUSE THEY ARE TEENS. As soon as they fight they make up cause they are just impulsive. So real

The chemistry between Frank and Drake... I think I dont have to say anything more. INSANE. I cant believe they met each other for this series and HAVE THIS CHEMISTRY INSTANTLY.

Is the first work for Frank and Khaotung: for the poor writing the seried has, they made an AMAZING job

Negative things

-Sexual jokes. Especially in the first episodes. Theres two in the first episode that are absolutely cringe.

-the "couple" between Morn and Gord. First of all: they are supposed to be 13-14 years old an the actors obviously have more (Neo is 17 and Phuwin 15 and it shows). They are cute but their storyline is boring. Hyper boring. I dont understand the whole point about them.

-timeline is messed up. You'll find yourself lost in the flashbacks and some points in the storyline. Especially when they go to the cinema.

Rewatch potencial:

For me, to rewatch a serie it has to have 3 things: emotional moments (if i feel butteflies in my stomach, there it is) 1/1, characters well constructed 0.5/1 , and funny moments 1/1
My Tee has 2.5/3 to rewatch. Honestly I could rewatch it, but without Morn and Gord. They apported ZERO to the story.

It is an ok series, but loss focus very fact.

I was super excited to watch this series as it had a few of my favorite actors. Sadly I found myself disappointed with the storyline, which lacked everything. Most of all it made no sense and was completely unrealistic. The only good part was that the actors all had good chemistry and were cute at times. However, the storyline that is described is not what you see in the movie. I was bored after the 3rd episode. I found myself fast-forwarding up to see if there were more interesting parts. I have to say that a lot of it made no sense and the storline did not flow at all there were way too many missing gaps from beginning to end. I don't understand how many one can give this series anything beyond a 5 and it's only a 5 because of the actors. This story kept turning around at every moment making no sense with who liked who and magically people turning gay and all that bull. I thought it had really good potential in the first 2 episodes and then went downhill completely. The only good that came from it was the 2nd part series in our Skyy which was a 1 episode storyline that was way better about them. This series sadly was horrible.

It’s sweet and original with strong chemistry mitigate the poor execution of the production

It is a simple story of a barber’s son and a rich son. Strong chemistry of Mork and Tee; acting is raw but that makes the innocence of growing up. Story is sugary sweet in a down to earth setting without too much frills. Production execution is poor considering this is a GMMTV production, but mitigated by the very strong chemistry of Drakefrake and further salvaged by My Skyy episode 3. For fans of 2gether, you will appreciate Tee-Mork as a precedent of Mil-Phukong.

Con: Commercials at the end of each episode adds confusion to the story, so it is recommended to skip these advertisements.

I loved this show a lot. The romance is this show was great. It was one of the best Thai drama lgbt/ gay/ bl romances that there been. There was no rape scene in this show which was refreshing for a start. The plot, storyline, character, characters development were all great. This wasn’t boring not one little bit. There was enough drama to keep me entertained the whole time while watching this. The two boys were great together. There chemistry was one of the best. At first the dude who had a mother wasn’t too happy about him dating the other dude but by the end of the story she loved the dude that he was dating. I highly recommend this drama to everyone no matter the age.

I was excited to begin this drama. GMMTV has a good track record with dramas; some of my favorites come from this network. Unfortunately, I am disappointed with this drama.

The storyline is dull, with significant plot holes. I don't mind a show that leaves things open to the imagination, but this show felt like the writer simply gave up halfway through.

The casting/acting of this show wasn't the worst I've ever seen, but it wasn't the best. You could tell that both the actors did not have much experience, and unlike other BL couples, I didn't feel that spark between them.

The music of the show wasn't bad but also not that good. This is not a show where I will be rushing to listen to the OST anytime soon.

This is a decent show if you are trying to kill a Saturday with nothing to do. But I wouldn't recommend it to any new BL drama viewers.
