Extraordinary and the Ordinary need love too!

Let me tell you, the secondhand embarrassment was running rapid in this one! The story was definitely unique, and not what I was expecting when I came across this. Also someone had recommended this to me, and while the first episode I found really cute, but it was really awkward with the collecting of items, but I GET IT. I kind of fell for it when I noticed Nuea noticing Toh doing certain actions, and I'm like okay this show has a lot of potential to be really amazing!

The idea of those ordinary people that are usually the butt of the joke in certain BL dramas or don't get the necessary love that they deserve, you'll see it here! I loved and when I say loved, I LOVED both sets of friend groups. Especially Toh's friends, Daisy, Som, and Jao. They are always there for each other unwavering, and you don't always see that in shows. They let always let him know that keeping things wasn't cool but understood why he did it. It was a unique story, and just really cute and super cringe but that's the type of show I love. It's personal taste, but I'd definitely recommend this show.

The chemistry between all of the couples in this is what made me stay! I enjoy seeing actors who actually want to be acting together. I cannot wait to see more things from this director and see more of the cast in their separate things. I'm definitely gonna keep a watchful eye on them!

Why is it always about the toxic BL shippers?

I recently finished this, and I migrated here mainly for Louis and Neo who is in another drama I'm currently watching. I wanted to see their dynamic in another drama besides The Eclipse. However, I kind of fell in love initially with Mork and Pi. I liked the idea of where the story was trying to go, and the fact that Mork liked Pi even before he had "changed" himself just to get Nan to like him or fit in.

However, I feel like the story started to fall flat when you added in the shippers. I understood that it was probably trying to portray Pi being uncomfortable with the invasive shippers and that's why he didn't want their relationship public yet, because why on earth do you have to confirm your relationship with other people? It shouldn't matter, and I felt like this started to become the focal point of the show towards the middle and end.

Also, I ABSOLUTELY HATE HATE that they decided to make Bam the villain. It was so weird especially when it seemed like he was routing for them, and then to turn around just to break up the main couple and it didn't work in her favor? What was up with that? Why couldn't there just be a nice female/male friendship without the added stress of having feelings? Like why would she help just to turn around to tear it down again? It was really weird and toxic.

My thoughts on Duean and Meen...I don't know it was a lot of plot holes, and I hated that Meen was always perceived as naive and childlike. Maybe that was the purpose of it, but it also just seem like Meen was supposed to be stupid, and he's not. Like he figured out who Duean actually was, and he just kept up with the lying. It just didn't make any sense. However, I did like the happy ending with them, but still a little way off base.
