Was confusing..
Every one wanted two at a time..no one seemed loyal to each other
Though story started really well..but I had to drop it ...
It was draggy
If smile lived kyro..she wouldn't be attracted to badz
If badz loved Liz he wouldn't be jealous of smile being with Kuro
If kyro loved Liz..he wouldn't kissing around girls
Surprisingly badz confessed to smile just after his breakup whereas he was soo much heartbroken when Liz brokeup

No one seemed sure of each other until very last
I don't know if it's fine with other but not with me

So ive watched my share of Asian dramas and this is one of the worst.
I feel bad for the cast as the acting wasnt that bad. For me Liz and Pyro were the saving grace of the show. Both had good chemistry and their scenes togther we quite sweet. But the storyline was something else. It had good potential but it came across so boring and i regret watching it to be honest. So many holes in the plot and the fighting scenes were horrendous. If you are looking for disappointment then this is the show for you! If you are looking for a good drama...move on!

Okay... Fon Sananthachat first appears wearing huge glasses & pigtails to announce to the audience that her character is still a virgin. She meets Lee Thanat's in an elevator (seriously) and decides to pursue him. Her bestie also loves pursuing boys. She's portrayed by the cute Ciize Apichaya, kinda young for an aggresive man-eater, LOL.

Aye Sarunchana, even younger actress, who nevertheless has proven she can portray grown and sensible characters ('Friend Zone', 'Friend Zone 2') portrays a girl who is already taken. Her boyfriend seems to never be there when she needs him, though. She does catch him feeding her clear lies.

The plot goes crazy since episode 1, where the girl with looks of Fon Sananthachat decides to hire a "boy for rent" to teach her how to be seductive with men, so that Lee Thanat's guy won't refuse her again. We can see her in a sequence wearing no glasses and tiny shorts & top, which only reveal that her body is tiny also, like a middle-schooler's. Also, she's to PRACTICE how to win guy's heart... with somebody else.

Meanwhile, Aye Sarunchana's taken girl also decides to hire "boy for rent", as she figures she doesn't have to be guilty for it. Unfortunatelly, no one hires Victor Chatchawit, who is there only as a intermediary. Mond goes shirtless for most of the episode 2-3, still he cannot quite compensate, and I actually prefer him dressed, LOL.

I must say I ceased to understand the "plot" soon. Also, I had no idea who the endgame couples are supposed to be. Usually, all it takes is to scroll at Cast & Credits on MDL and click "View All", usually the couples are listed nicely next to each other. But here, we have girls next to each other and boys next to each other. It all gives me kinda similar vibe as 'Friend Zone', like "we don't care whether this looks like romance line for you, let's just try and put together these two, then these two".

We then watch the... er... couples? That's where the problems starts. One couple is Mond & Fon. He's there for her as "boy for rent" to help her out in romance department & also protect her, because she gets almost molested after being shown at stage at a club, where everyone could see there's nothing much to see on her, still one of the guys follows her and tries to molest her? (A weird and unconvincing scene, if you ask me.) While he actually dates Aye Sarunchana's character, but he has to broke up with her because he can't really be there for her, blah blah blah... It's all so not enjoyable watch. I was willing to give the chance to 'Friend Zone', though that was also not enjoyable for the entire 1st season. But, not again. I find this entirely dumb, to be honest.

Fon Sananthachat isn't cute, she is weird 25 year-old with a 15-year old body. I didn't cheer for her with Mond, I didn't cheer for her with anyone. Aye Sarunchana's character cried most of the 3rd episode and I honestly was tired of her couple line with Mond's character already, too. Should she get together with Lee Thanat, instead? He portrays a guy that seems to be too much above it all... And I don't even like these two together, either. I don't really care what happens. And if I don't care about it now, I don't need to waste my time 9 more times.

Someone obviously thought the 'Boy For Rent' sounded cool and had interesting concept, but what of it? It's not like they could really rent a boyfriend. It wasn't about sex, either. Honestly, I didn't get what it was about.

Lo bueno de este drama es que es corto y tiene los capítulos suficientes para contar la historia.
La historia es original y entretenida.
Los actores muestran muy bien las diferentes emociones por las que pasan.
No me gusto que la historia haya pasado en un lapso corto de tiempo ,lo que hace que algunos sucesos no sean creíbles . Se entiende que ella tenia una cantidad de días pagados , pero era mas lógico que la historia pasara a lo largo de los meses y no en dos semanas (quizás fueron mas , pero eso fue lo que entendí )
Es un drama justo para hacer un maratón de fin de semana .
