Should have been 12 episodes bruh
I am going to say this straight off the bat; this drama is SO CLOSE to being perfect, but because of the fact that it's only 10 episodes, the beginning is rushed. I was so confused but how things were speeding so fast and how the story is almost running past plot points for the first two episodes.
GMMTV needs to bring back 12-episode dramas because executing on 10-episode ones is clearly not their forte. That's why I'm giving the story 8.5.
THAT BEING SAID, the last I watched JimmySea was Last Twilight, and I forgot what an absolute DELIGHT it is to watch Jimmy be cocky/sassy. His character Thapfah has this charismatic way of talking, and he's so FLIRTY that it took me by surprise and I found myself giggling everytime he opened his mouth to talk to In. And Sea has given a wonderful performance too, delicate, a little broken (as it should be), and he cries a lot (which I think some people dislike but I thought it made perfect sense). Their chemistry is CHEMISTRY-INGGGG my god.
The dialogues in this series, specially the romantic ones between Thapfah and In are fabulously written. Thapfah is such a great communicator, and I found myself delighted by their difference in approaches to relationships which was in line with the age gap they were trying to portray. Both characters bring their own view to the relationship, and I loved seeing them navigate through it.
The series also touches on other themes of friendship, familial bonds, and unrequited love. All of these plots, while just a short part of it, really added to what I took away from the series.
I think the other overarching plot (the misfortune one, I will not say more) is not too fairly complex and is able to balance itself pretty well. Also OH MY GOD huge fan of them bringing in other famous bl actors because those men need to do dramas separate from their "pairs" and I'm glad they're getting the chance to do so.
