How can anyone even watch it without disgust?
I'm not going to adress every issue I have with this drama but one thing needs to be said. From the beginning we are pushed to believe that Type is the "bad guy" in TharnType relationship and I have to agree that hes behaviour is absolutely unacceptable but I sincerly think that Tharn is far worse.Type mostly does very childish and stupid things. He's acting homophobic but in a way that no adult would ever even think of which is pretty hard to watch for probably anyone over the age of 12.
Tharn on the other hand is straight forward sexually assaulting Type from the first episode on. He does not only molest him all the time but he even does it while Type is drunk or asleep, which means unconcious. I was shocked thet the bathroom scene was not a dream but the real act. He literally had oral sex with Type without his consent. No, not only without consent butg with very visual and verbal rejection. And to make it all worse - he did it all to already sexually traumatized person. I can imagine that if any homophobic person watched this show, it would only assure them that gay people would just rape anyone if you leave them alone in a room. Which is not only very hurtful to LGBTQ+ community but also complately untrue. I was so repulsed by this show that I had to watch it with long breaks in between the episodes.
So overall - both main actors are doing pretty well, their acting is not the reason I'm critisizing this show. I know many people watch it to see hot scenes but this is far from hot - this is mostly disgusting abuse and Type is scared and very unwilling at the beginning of the series. There are much better dramas out there. Go watch "Not me" or even "Don't say no" but leave "TharnType" alone, it's really not worth the time.

There's a surprisingly good plot in here!
Story is really good, It's definitely not just an ordinary BL. It makes you think and reflect on some social, political and moral issues and the characters are actually well written. Also main characters do have a good chemistry, so it's not like romance part of it is bad. Not at all. I think it's rather well balanced.Another thing ist that actors are doing really good job. You can see that they are commited to their characters and I would love to see them together in another series again.
Music is one of the best parts of this show. I think the soundtrac totally made the mood in this series and sometimes I cought myself just listening to it during some more emotional scenes.
I would definitely recommend it.
