My School President (2022)

THIS SHOW IS ACTUALLY INSANE. LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE A KID AGAIN??? WAAAATTCHHH

Where do I fucking start? I just finished watching this like 10 minutes ago and I don't want to smile anymore. This show is actually crazy and I have no idea how coherent this review would turn out because my brain wants to shut down.

My School President is what happens when you put A FUCKING TALENTED DIRECTOR and give him a simple plot. It goes from something not too short or ordinary to ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDING, its both something light and fun yet genuine and I LOVE ITTT. The cinematography of this show goes HARDDD and it's not even of just nature or pretty places, the entire show is so cheerful and colorful it makes you want to smile widely.

The cast is just PERFECT. They're mostly new faces that have never been presented in this way and they are SO GOOD AT WHATEVEE THEY'RE DOING !!! There is NOT a single second where I could say the acting is bad or even not good because???? Whoever paired Fourth and Gemini together needs to be paid MORE!!! They bring such a refreshing pure chemistry to the table and obviously they are both gorgeous gorgeous boys. Every character feels so perfectly in place with the actor that plays it, Fourth as Gun??? Gemini as Tinn??? Winny as Win??? Satang as Sound??? Ford as Por??? Mark as Tiw??? Captain as Yo??? Prom as Phat??? THE PARENTS AS WELL??? EVERYTHIIINNGG IS JUST PERFECT. WHOEVER WAS IN THAT CASTING ROOM I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOU. PLEASE MARRY ME, THE CHARACTERS ARE SO PERFECT.

As far as story goes, it was SO WELL EXECUTED??? and it is SO ADORABLE??? every episode has the capacity to make you so excited it drives you out of your mind (well, there were only two episodes that kind of fell flat TO ME but if you've been watching gmmtv for a while theres ALWAYS a filler episode). Tinn being revealed to have had a crush on Gun since FOREVER in the VERY FIRST EPISODE is one of THEE CUTEST THINGS EVER and I think other shows should take NOTES!! I do enjoy the very same trope without being revealed but this was just perfect. Everything he'd ever done being for Gun makes me so emotional, he is honestly the sweetest, purest, most adorable character I've ever watched in a show. If I was Gun I would be crying and losing my sanity by episode 3 ? (which, to be fair is when Gun discovered his feelings <3). Tinn and Gun's dynamic literally warms my heart so much, every time they appear on screen I'm absolutely SWOONING!! They make me feel like I'm youthful again (despite the fact that we're the same age, or I'd say I'm even younger than both of them, but obviously not in the same life stage). This show is giving me new ideas on how to fall in love, but my first love is far gone I guess ㅠㅠ

I wholeheartedly love both of them so much, I love how Tinn always strives to give his best and when he commits to something he COMMITS!!! He's such a gentle and kind person, and the nicest friend ever, always there to cheer others up. He's always been the shoulder for Gun to cry on and he LISTENSSS!!!! LIKE REALLY REALLY LISTENS!!! I want to put him inside my pocket i just love him so much. He is the og winner, bro won at life by getting Gun to be his man like AAAAAA!!!! but is he the one winning or is it Gun HMMMM

And GUN!!!! GUN IS MY BABY!!! He's the bestest boy ever, the love he has for his family and his friends, he is a true BLESSING!!! The intro of the show showing how passionate he is and him continuing to hold that passion true to his heart!!! He is such an inspiration. He is also so compassionate and so gentle (also he's head empty no thoughts but I GET HIM!! He is so funny) and did I mention that my soul leaves my body the moment he speaks in that soft voice of his.... Like the way I might DIE?? The way you can tell he cherishes Chinzhilla and his mother makes me want to cry. He is ready to fight the world for the people he loves, and he proves it time and time after!! Fourth did an insane job portraying him EVERYBODY SAY THANK YOU NATTAWAT!!!

The way I'm lowkey a member of Chinzhilla now like you guys don't get it these are MY BESTIES TOO!!! I love them I love them I LOVE THEM!!? They are one hell of a success story, everybody say THANK YOU TINN FOR REDEEMING THEM??? The bond they have with each other is something that I so deeply crave and will die to get. I love every single one of them so much, Yo, their silly little guitarist who gets in trouble ALWAYS and his arch with Nook was INSANE, they are soo cute <333. Sound??? SOUND IS MY MAN!! Satang is so hot for playing him, what started as an angry cocky super talented bassist became a little downbad puppy (that is still super talented and a bassist though dont get me wrong) WHOEVER DECIDED TO WRITE HIM IN LOVE WITH WIN PLS COME HERE LET ME HUG YOU!?!?! I love to see him fight with Win and everyone (I swear I'm normal) he's my boy. Win is my favorite head empty hotheaded loser, bro literally thinks with his ass <3 respectfully BUT HIS HEART IS SO FULL OF LOVE FOR HIS BROS??? HE IS MY EVERYTHING ACTUALLY. Por is top 10 people I need in my life, also head empty no thoughts but thats what these idiots have in common they are literally so cute. Also I think we need to COMMEND Ford on his singing skills because Come Closer is about to be my most listened to song EVER!!! BACK TO POR he is so cheerful and SO SUPPORTIVE also a fashion king like OH MY GODDD!?!? I love him so much, the way I fell down the stairs sobbing when he was waiting for the members after HotWave :(( . Pat is one hell of a loser, lowkey 6th wheeling is CRAZZYYY he is actually kinda iconic for that, probably one of the dumbest in the club.

I need to talk about Tiwson or I'll die because THATS MY MANNN!!! HE IS THE AXIS OF THIS SHOW!!! If it weren't for him Tinn would've been in the trenches dying whenever he sees Gun actually!! The way he is everything. Him siezing EVERY opportunity and wasting no time to help everybody in this show is insane, father of 5, director, cupid, choreographer??? HE IS THE REAL MAIN CHARACTER!!! Mark outdid himself with Tiw but the issue is, Mark ALWAYS outdoes himself. Nothing makes me laugh harder than the fourth wall breaking he did multiple times, I LOVE HIMM!??

The portrayal of the parents of this show and how supportive they are of their children is something we need to genuinely give a huge kudos to!!! Tinn's mother is probably one I've never seen before, the way she gives Tinn space slowly despite knowing she'll get worried about him shows that she trusts him. Gun's mother is an angel, unconditionally supporting her child in a world so cruel, the way she raised him to be so carefree and happy is enough proof that she quite literally deserves the world. Tinn's father is our best friend actually, from the guitar to the love he has to his family, thats my guy actually!!

The musical aspect of this show is THE BEST THING ABOUT IT. All the little "music videos" in each episode quite literally transform you to another dimension, the way they are used for storytelling is so genius. For a person who loves music and singing — like me! — THIS IS A MAGIC FORMULA. I know what you hear about thai dramas or what you've seen when ir comes to singing but EVERYBODY WHO HAS BEEN NEAR A MICROPHONE IN THIS DRAMA IS SO INSANELY TALENTED?? if I come out with any form of damage from this drama its the damage Fourth's mesmerizing voice has done to MY HEART... AND GEMINI?? I ALREADY KNEW HE WAS A GOOD SINGER PRIOR TO WATCHING THIS SHOW BUT OH HE IS A GOOOOD GOOOD SINGER???? HOLY SHIT HE HAS THE VOICE OF AN ANGEL?? ALL OF THE OSTS IN THIS SHOW ARE SOMETHING TO ADD TO YOUR PLAYLIST LIKE FOREVER.

Final notes: I cannot cram all my thoughts into one review and I know that this barely does it justice because this show is everything, BUT I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH, I think its my new favorite show of all time, but who's to say? One of the few shows I might rewatch one day, even though I DONT do rewatches. I need to personally thank the entire cast and crew for making this show what it is!! THANKKKK YOUUUUU MY SCHOOL PRESIDENT!!!!! THANK YOU!!!?

Do I really need to say something about this banger?

This is one of the most perfect Thai BL, the musics/songs isn't cringe or bad when they started singing in some episodes compared to some BL when they sing its cringe or bad or really bothering literally like a disney movie .. the storyline is just so great i never thought about something like this before, the acting amd the actors all did a wonderful job! Every episodes were so nice to watch and every time one episode ended i couldn't wait to see the next episode the next week..

For me this is one of my favorite Thai BL !
I wonder why and how they're so Sodium Radium Potassium ( you gotta watch the series to understand this hahaha!! )

A simple story of student love well executed

I hadn't planned on watching this series, but after seeing the two main actors in Moonlight Chicken, I changed my mind. Usually I don't watch high school series because they are a bit too childish for my taste. Here, indeed, we don't have a very mature story, which is normal, but at least it is well executed.

GMM is finally making an effort to stop showing us basic BLs written by straight women for straight women where homosexuality doesn't exist and the realism of LGBTQ+ lives is absent. In this series , we describe real lives, coming out, society's acceptance. Even if we remain anchored in student problems, which is quite normal, we adhere without getting bored.

Another positive point: the actors seem to have the age of their character. It's a change from all the shows where 25 years old guys play 15 years old kids. I have a special thought for MY ONLY 12% which is the exact opposite of MY SCHOOL PRESIDENT.

Plus, the acting is good. The secondary characters, although numerous, bring a little more to the story.

In conclusion, I would say that we spend a good time watching this series which is not necessarily very inventive but well executed.

The key word is COMFORT

This bl was everything I needed to brighten my days. This was so so fluffy and it made me scream so many times.
It’s the type of show that brings you so much comfort, so much happiness.

Pros:
- Fourthgemini was absolutely ADORABLE. They were kinda cliche but that cliche you absolutely adore and miss those days: the one that makes you melt your insides actually and feel super super single

- It was FUNNY. It made me miss romantic comedies. I rarely laugh at tv shows but especially some of Tinn’s fantasies in his head made me die. Omg just remembering these scenes makes me laugh HE’S SO CUTE

- The bromance. The band was amazing with all their adorable bromance moments. This squad is my favorite, they became my family

-The music. I usually HATE when there is music or a guitar in a tv show but these songs were BOPS I’m telling you. The theme song especially is stuck in my head. And if music isn’t for you just skip these parts, please don’t let this stop you from watching.

- Dealing with issues. I loved how this show also dealt with homophobia, family issues (and other stuff regarding the family but *spoilers removed*) etc

Cons:
NOTHING
Even tho there were some scenes that annoyed me for example some arguments and yellings from some members of the band here and there (thankfully not from the main couple, these were minor arguments) for sometimes not even a good enough reason, they were thankfully all dealt with and everyone apologized so I was really happy and actually really touched.

In conclusion: JUST WATCH THIS SHOW YOU WON’T REGRET IT

Entretiene

My school president es de las historias más lindas que e visto en el bl. Muchas personas pueden considerarla aburrida por el hecho de que no contenga escenas nc, pero una buena serie no necesita de eso para destacar y en este caso my school president cumple con esto. La música no es algo que te de cringe ya que las canciones son muy buenas. Una serie muy divertida, divertida y romántica, donde se demuestra que el amor de secundaria no siempre es malo. Algo que destacó es el hecho de que no solo se centra en el amor de los protagonistas, si no también de la amistad que lleva el grupo de Gun, es una amistad que realmente sientes que eres parte del grupo y eso me gusta mucho, hicieron un buen trabajo eligiendo al cast.

The Perfect Highschool RomCom

This is a belated review - I have watched this series around 6x now. I must say, this series really holds up even now that it's a couple of years since it's first released.

As someone in their mid twenties, I didn't expect to have a series in a highschool setting to be my biggest comfort series ever. It somehow has the capacity to be relatable to someone who can't even remember their highschool days, which is kind of magical. The writing is consistent and almost every scene feels intentional. The humor is not understated but it is also not too outlandish, which worked really well for me.

The premise is not special - it is a regular highschool one sided enemies to lovers, with a side of band life. We all have seen this formula before, but where MSP excels is the purposeful writing and excellent cast. It subverts a lot of normal tropes and fixes a lot of common issues the exists in regular highschool romance. I love how the series focuses on both platonic and romantic relationship as those things are equally important in my eyes. I hugely enjoy found family tropes and this one nailed it. I also love how the story progresses so smoothly - there is a clear climax (hot wave competition) but also there are smaller conflicts throughout that all contributes to build up the climax. I love how all small conflicts are resolved which left us with not much hanging questions. It is also incredibly refreshing to see well developed, multi-dimensional characters. Tinn and Gun is more well written than most and it is clear that they have identity aside from liking each other - this is more than I can say about a lot of other series. I also love how they are just both really good people. I have never understood people who have crushes with horrible personality (a very regular occurrence in the BL world) but with TinnGun I could fully understand why they would like each other. It wasn't merely one moment of kindness followed with tons of assholery, Gun is consistently kind throughout. I could continue to rant about how good this series is but I'll end this section with: how good is Fourth's voice? I wish he never stops singing.

Of course there are room for improvement still and the editing of the last couple of episodes are the biggest one for me. I enjoy them using clips of "imagination" but those weren't the most well placed in the last couple of episodes. I also would love it if we could have had more buildup between the ThiwPor side couple as I can feel that they have cut off pivotal ThiwPor scenes. Something was missing in the middle which didn't provide the smoothest transition of their relationship. I'm also not the biggest believer of the WinSound relationship, but that's more of a me problem more than anything.

This will continue to be my comfort series for a long time. I can't recommend this series enough and I just have to say that this is an insane debut series for Gemini and Fourth as a main couple.

A good surprise!

My school president was a surprise.

The plot for this show is not new. It involves a high school romance between two teenagers and their friends. I was over it. I’ve been watching boys' love dramas since 2018, so I’ve seen my fair share of this plot. When the trailer came out, I knew then that I would not be watching this show.

Oh, boy was I wrong.

Curiosity got the best of me, and I just had to watch the first episode. And so I was hooked. MSP is an example of when cliche is done right, and obviously, the incredible chemistry between rookie actors Gemini and Forth.

Getting to see two young boys experience love was a joy. Being queer is hard. Being queer and young is even harder. When you're that age, you slowly start to discover about yourself. Slowly, you grow into your skin. I personally never got to experience this. I was too busy hiding. I was afraid someone would find out my secret and my entire life would be over. I missed out on so much, all because of fear. Fear of my friends finding out, fear of my family finding out. I was afraid of myself.

Watching this I think healed a part of me. Made me regret a lot of things too. But in the long run, this just proves why shows like this are important. These shows are for us, afraid people. Who live vicariously through these characters, hoping to one day be just as brave.

God, I've never wanted to kick myself over the head more than i do now. Ugh!! I hate myself for not being patient enough to watch it past the 2nd episode when it was released. I just stopped because the first episode didn't manage to capture attention that much. But last month i saw some clips on ig of MSP and decided to give it another try and I've been obsessed ever since. I've lost count of the amount of times I've re watched it. And i hate myself for not supporting my kids when around the time it was released when i clearly could have if only I'd had little more patience. TRUST ME ON THIS GUYS. You will fall in love with Tinn and Gun's love. Their love is just so pure and heartmelting that u will keep wanting more.

Best bl for a musical person

I can't stop rewatching show help. Best show I've watched. If you like musicals and bl this will be the show for you. The story is so wholesome, funny, and charismatic. Tinns whole character is such a green flag and I really enjoyed gemini playing him. The whole cast of this show is perfect. Fourth playing Gun was really fun to see. Mark playing Tiwson always helped my heart during my only friends era when he was playing Nick. And all the band members were really entertaining. This show is actually what got me into bl but I'm afraid no show can top this show. It will always have a special place in my heart
