It's just a mix of all interesting things .
Most important, you won't get bored .
There are so many interesting fact in each episode that you'll get to know more of Thai government problems and real life problems of the people living there, fighting for human right and LGBTQ rights too. As of someone who know their government last to last month (around that only) discarded that bill of LGBTQ and same sex marriage. In the series too you'll get to see how people Sathe against such government. They're in a way indirectly picking at their government.

Brillant
I've just rewatched this series after several months, many new series have been coming out but this is still one of the best bl ever: the story, the soundtrack, the acting and, overall, OffGun chemistry that never disappoint. We all know Gun's talent, he's an amazing actor since his childhood but what surprised me the most was Off Jumpol acting. He has improved a lot, we can clearly see how much effort he's putting on his growth as an actor. And First! He gave us the best Yok ever. This series is an absolute masterpiece.Was this review helpful to you?

One of the best BL I've ever seen
I need Season 2. I want to see White working as a diplomatic and fighting against the current government. I want to see the closure to ToddBlack. The last EP gave me the need to see more of them.I loved DanYok since of the very first sight. The chemistry between Gawin and First it's something that GMMTV could explore more.And, P'Anucha you were absolutely incredible!!! I'll follow your work whenever you'll do next. You are amazing.Ps. I had to search for the books that Sean have been reading in the beginning of the series. I learned more about Thailand history and culture. As a brazilian, I'd never had heard anything about this and this Series made me wanna to learn more and more.This was a such inspiration and I clearly see the connections between our laws, government, estruture, police force... Here in Brazil too. The episode focus on amnesty was my favorite.Not Me is now my favorite serie and it changed my life and my way to see some things. Thank you GMMTV, crew and cast to bring us this masterpiece.(Sorry if my English is broke, I'm always learning)Was this review helpful to you?
Me crying? Not Me
Where to even begin? This series is such a masterpiece!!!!!
When I first started episode 1, I knew that this is going to be one of those shows that's going to take me on an emotional roll coaster. It captures you from the very first episode and you can't help but fall in love at the beginning. As the story progressed each episode the plot was more and more interesting and not what you would expect from a BL. I’ve watched so many BLs and this series hit different, it did not only show us the romantic side but issues that are still happening around the world and that is powerful for a series to show that and yet still be light-hearted.
I was shipping White and Sean so hard OMG!! my favourite couple they are just so sweet with each other. Yes, they did have a rocky start, but I think it was needed to build the connection they have right now. It's amazing to see how far they have come and the connection they have. OffGun really have a good connection when they are acting because they make you believe and fall in love. It's so amazing how their acting as improved over the years, and you can clearly see this in this BL. they're Overall I'm happy with their acting 10/10 OffGun.
It was so sad when Yok was betrayed truly felt that. To think that you trusted someone, and they turn around and disappoint you was so sad but, in the end, they got their happy ending.
The friendship in this BL is amazing Yok, Gumpa, Gram and even Todd. They have all had they fair share of ups and downs, but you can clearly see that they care for each other.
The OST is amazing that I even downloaded it, that's how good everything in their series come together. I'm crying but I'm happy.
Overall, I've never felt this way about a BL it was truly spectacular and I'm going to miss this show so much it has brought me tears, joy and the feeling of love. This show has the best cast and crew, and everyone did an amazing job 10/10. Deep hoping for a season 2 or a special episode ?
Thank you ,Not me the series.

A true masterpiece. I really don't know what I'm going to do with my life after this is over.
Not Me is one of the best BL's I've ever seen if not the best. It's definitely earned the number one for me. I loved it from beginning to the end. I'm not one for political action thrilers but Not Me's story captured me. I was drawn in by the fight for social justice done by college students. I could relate so much even if I don't have that fight. Their struggle made me think deeply every week and made me learn more about Thailand's society. It taught me more about what's going on in the world which is always important.The cast was amazing from Gun to Off(who improved so much and was excellent as Sean. And Gun cemented himself as Thailand's best with his brilliant portrayal as Black and White.) to unknowns to me like Gavin and First. They were all so good and made me love them as actors. I had always been and OffGun fan which was the biggest reason I watched but after Not Me I'm obsessed with them. Off and Gun's acting was in another lever and their chemistry??? wowza it's even better than before. I just love them that is all.
I think the character development was the best in the story all characters changed and grew thru the course of the series . I also loved how none of them were perfect they were all human & relatable characters No BL stereotypes here which is a big place. P'Nuchy + the cast and crew created a jewel with this series and I think it's gonna take forever to be topped. At least for me it is.
If you haven't watched this series please do, you won't regret it. 10 overall but if I could give it more I would. Now I know this show is gonna leave a huge hole in my life. Well time to rewatch from the beginning again.

A masterpiece!
Brilliant from start to end! This series was truly a masterpiece in all the most minimal details.First of all, the cinematography was outstanding, stunning and breathtaking. As someone who's pretty obsessed with films, this one has such an unique visual. There are so many shots engraved in my mind; I'm extremely pleased with this aspect of the series.
The acting and performance was beautifully done and captivating. The cast was absolutely perfect; everyone did such a fantastic job in portraying their role. The chemistry between the main leads is incredible, too, and truly conveyed such a tender, passionate and delicate romance.
All in all, this series has everything. An intriguing premise, a carefully thought-out plot, rich characters with deep and complex development and so realistically human. I've never been this in love with a series before. It's so worth the watch. SeanWhite's romance was so beautifully made as well; so achingly tender and raw and the real definition of Finding Your Person.
Please give this a chance if you haven't. It's such an underrated gem. It treats important social and political issues with respect and the delicacy it deserves, without moving on from also being a deeply layered series. The LGBTQ+ representation here was so wonderfully made as well. There are scenes that made me feel seen, understood and represented in a way no other series has done.
Truly recommended! A thriller that managed to tell a beautiful romance and the story of amazing characters and the society we live in. My favorite thai series so far! :)

Not me, not you, but everyone....will love this??
This series was DROP DEAD GORGEUOUS. It's a must-watch from me because you'll miss out on a lot if you don't watch it.Let me tell you, every character, ship, and situation is simply amazing and well-portrayed. I'm not going to mention the name of the person who put Black in a coma, cuz the fun is in discovering it yourself.
Let me give a quick summary though,
Black was one day beaten up and put into a coma and White(who had just returned from Russia) had received a call from their childhood best friend Todd(Sing Harit slayed this role) saying what had gone down. Now, White is interested in discovering who had done this to his brother and thus acted as him. He found out that his brother was a part of a motorcycle gang, and found it hard to adjust to it. As suspicions grew, the relationship between Sean(the one who hated him the most in the gang)and Black(White) grew together. What's most surprising is that the one who had put Black in the coma condition was the one closest to him after all!
Everything about this series has you on the edge. And, lemme assure you, I won't be the only one crying when Black broke Sean's heart. One thing I am wondering though is what happened to the main deal of the entire series, which was bringing down Tawi. I'm curious as to what happened to the man, but it was never revealed at the end of the series. P.S. Nobody cared about him.
The actors were impeccable. Each one of them slayed every role. P'Gun did so well as both Black and White, but one thing that not many people talked about was how well P'Sing did in his role. He slayed it, showing the real pain he felt in his eyes and showing the love and care he felt for Black.
This is pretty much all I can say. Everything about this series stands out and is breathtakingly beautiful.

THIS IS YOUR SIGN TO START WATCHING NOT ME! (if you haven't yet!)
This is my first time writing a review as the series is still in the ongoing stage but I couldn't just help myself!I am a kind of a veteran bl fan myself and oh boy! have a come across a series which is just as splendid? NEVER.
To begin with, the plot sets off on a serious note and it's upto the main lead to uncover the cause of all the problems he finds himself amidst of! Every single character introduction is on point and it is surely not an exaggeration to say that all the actors know exactly where they are getting at with their respective roles!
Personally, I expected this to be another show where the main lead and his friends play hero and solve the burning issues with pure bravado alone but I was wrong.
This series is peppered with just the right amount of social and emotional themes. When I say reality smacks you in the face at every turn, I MEAN IT! and here's where my personal perspective comes in (again) as an Asian myself, the social and national events being tackled couldn't get more relatable. Ableism? check. LGBTQIA inequality? check. Capitalist monopoly? check. Social class division? check.
I cannot ramble enough about how good this series is, you'll just have to watch and find out by yourself :)) Though offgun deserve their fair share of applause, they aren't the only ones who steal the show bc Mond and First are doing an amazing job as well!!! To wrap this loooong review up, let me tell you the OST is to die for! Every single episode has a beautiful track to match the mood <3
[TL;DR Highly recommended series that belongs on the list of 'never miss it'! No graphic violence, so far so good! If you are someone who strongly believes in "Don't let the revolution die", you'll throughly enjoy this!!!! trust me >:-)]

Just watch it
I will do a proper review when this is over. But I'm recommending it entirely right now (as of episode 6).Pacing? Excellent. Acting? Superb. Cinematography? Perfect. Story? Captivating.
Seriously, watch it. It's just so good.
I'm just gushing about it in my head so much. It's too good. It's a bit heavy topic wise but it is pretty much the only BL that actually explores important issues at all. I hope they delve deeper cause it's still a bit surface level and strawman-like but it's doing a great job with what it has so far. And the plot itself is genuinely exciting and makes my toes curl with the tension every week. I wonder how much this might get close to the real events of the protests in Thailand.
You can see so much work must have gone into it and so far it's paid off with the work they've produced. Really hope the quality sticks until the end. I'm so curious about what will happen that the story pops into my head randomly at different times during the week, in the best way of course. ;)
(btw this is coming from someone who has not especially enjoyed OffGun's previous work when they are paired. So I'm not a shipper who might be a bit biased (no shade if you are of course), in fact I kind of went in with a lot of doubts. So happy to have been proven wrong. ;))
PS rewatch rating is neutral cause it's not finished.
Edit as of episode 7: No longer surface level or strawman like. This series is excellent. Complex and well-paced with great characters. I am just in love with it all.
