Everything I wanted from a gender-bender

This is hands down my favourite Thai drama.
Its gets a bit of an unfair rep online due to the BL community having BL expectations, but if you go into it with a clear mind then its worth it.
This show sets up the expectation that it's a generic rom-com and then completely destroys that in the second half of the show.
From the beginning, it really was just like any other gender-bender show, but even though it was using cliches and tropes, it was still fun and interesting. It's like the directer set us up to expect the same thing we get from every other drama like this and then breaks those rules to give us the ending we always wanted but never got.
The acting is just phenomenal. I went from not knowing any of the actor previous to being able to name all of them and also several dramas they're in, because i went down a rabbit-hole after finishing this drama. I just couldn't let go haha
This is one of the very few dramas that i have immediately rewatched after finishing, and i would recommend it to literally anyone.
