I liked it!
Just me not loving this drama! The audio is horrible which to be be honest tends to be a theme in Thai BL but I'm here to gush about Payu and Rain. Don't get me wrong, Sky and Prapai are a much more healthier and balanced dynamic and their story was lit but I was expecting that. What I didn't expect was to like Rain and P'payu's story so much, their arc is so stereotypical BL manga I'm surprised I binged through the whole thing.I HATE clichés and I admit I had very little hope when I started the series yet the producers managed to give me a story I didn't hate with that overdone trope and I actually fell in love with them. I like a bit of psycho with my MLs, enough to give him edge but not too much that he winds up in red flag valley...and Payu fit that bill...Rain...my poor baby...was sold and helped the villain count the money.
The antagonist arcs were rushed and didn't feel like part of the story, they are like 1D caricatures that seems to have very little character and just exist to bring the leads together...that was disappointing...I don't even know what was happening with the PayuRain antagonist...

What went wrong?
The Thai version was there for reference. Why did the directors decide to remove everything great about that one and all the bad parts?I know I tend to be shallow, but why do the shou look so much older than the MLs who are already in the workforce? They look like salarymen trying to act like teens. I found myself during the second episode thinking, "OMG he looks 40". Asians in general look very youthful, so how did the stylists manage to age them by 15 years? I felt so bad for thinking, but I couldn't unthink it, and it made the subsequent romance cringe. Let's not forget them rushing the episodes like they were worried we'd forget about this whole mess if they didn't film fast enough....I'm so sad and disappointed
