THE WORST MOST CRINGY AND EMBARRASSING SHOW EVER
Ok I can’t take it anymore. I usually only write reviews about shows that are incredible. I’ve never taken the time or the energy to write a review for a show that I didn’t like. But this show was just SOOOO INFURIATING that I needed to rant about it somewhere. But there are some good parts about this show I like and I will name those at the end>>THIS SHOW IS UNBEARABLE. UNBELIEVABLY CRINGY AND CHOCKED FULL OF EMBARRASSING SCENES EVERY DAMN MINUTE OF EVERY DAMN EPISODE. TOH IS SINGLE-HANDEDLY THE WORST CHARACTER I HAVE EVER WATCHED IN ANY TV SHOW IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. HE IS SOOOO INFURIATING IN EVERY SCENE HE IS IN. I. CANNOT. STRESS. THIS. ENOUGH. THE AMOUNT OF TIMES I ALMOST THREW MY PHONE AT THE WALL BECAUSE OF HIM ALONE, WAS A VERY HIGH AMOUNT OF TIMES. it’s just that NOBODY acts like that in real life. AND HE HAS THE MOST ANNOYING THAI VOICE I HAVE EVER HEARD. Never wanted to slap someone THIS BAD. They made him sooo annoying that it got to the point where even when he does act normal, I STILL AM FILLED WITH RAGE EVERY TIME I SEE HIM. EVEN HIS SMILE ANNOYS ME THE MOST. Yes sure it’s probably not the actor himself. But It’s JUST THE WAY THE WRITERS AND DIRECTORS MADE HIS CHARACTER AND ITS SIMPLY THE WORST. There were SO MANY SCENES I WISHED I COULD FAST FORWARD. I honestly wished I could have stopped watching it. But for some reason I had to keep watching for Nuea and Sky.
Now. Onto everyone else. NUEA IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PERFECT MAN EVER. After watching him he's definitely one of my FAVORITE BL actors. He’s stunningly gorgeous. He has a BEAUTIFUL personality. THE WAY HE TAKES CONTROL OF ALL THE ROMANCE SCENES. SOOOOO HOT. exactly what I want in a main BL lead. My only complaint abt him ofc is, THERE. IS. NO. WAY. HE WOULD FALL FOR TOH. THERES NO DAMN WAY ANYONE IN THE WORLD COULD FALL FOR THAT. Im not saying nobody could love someone that is shy, weird, insecure, or overly obsessed with their crush. That can all be fine. ITS JUST THEY MADE HIM SO UNREALISTIC CUZ NOBODY IS ACTUALLY THAT BAD OK?! TOH DOES NOTTT DESERVE NUEA. FOR THIS REASON THEY DO NOT GO WELL TOGETHER. I CANT STAND SEEING A BEAUTIFUL PERFECT MAN LIKE THAT WITH THE MOST INFURIATING PERSON I HAVE EVER SEEN. FOR THIS REASON THE WHOLE POTENTIAL OF THE SHOW IS RUINED. IT HAD SUCH GOOD POTENTIAL FOR CHEMISTRY. THE QUALITY. THE ACTORS. BUT THEY RUINED IT ALL. it could have been SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SHOW. THE ROMANCE SCENES COULD HAVE BEEN SOOOOOO GOOD. SUCH POTENTIAL GONE TO WASTE. I. WILL. NOT. STRESS. THIS. ENOUGH.
Onto another character. I LOVEEEEEE SKY. HES PERFECT IN EVERY WAY. He’s an ANGEL. That man has not done ONE wrong thing in this entire show. And Jao is super adorable. I LOVE them two together. Sky never gave up. Kept chasing him. Who doesn’t love that? The side couples are 100000 times better than the main couple. I have NO complaints about those two.
Now about Intouch. That MAN IS FINE OK? He is STUNNING. wish he got more screen time. Also. No issues at all with him or Daisy. I need a spin off series of just them two… withOUT Toh. Please.
Alright I doubt anyone actually read all of that^ but I just needed to get all that anger off my chest. I’ve watched a hundred Thai shows, and yes they ALL have so many cringy scenes. That’s undeniable. But this one was multiplied by A MILLION. Every damn minute Toh was there.
Anyhow. Ya. I think that’s most of it. I have never used caps lock so much before. BUT HE DESERVES IT.
The moral of this is: SAVE YOURSELF. DONT WATCH IT. ITS NOT WORTH IT. YES NUEA AND SKY ARE BEAUTIFUL BL CHARACTERS. BUT. ITS NOT WORTH THE PAIN.
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk~ Dani.

PLEASE read this review before you watch this show so u know what u r about to get yourself into.
(boutta have the rant of my life, so hold on) Incredible show. Truly. But I had absolutely NO idea what I was getting myself into when I started this. I waited till it was done airing to start it, then I finished it in a day. little did I know, that this show would tear my heart out and leave me in SHAMBLES while writing this review. The last thing I thought this was going to be was a rlly heavy show and borderline depressing for me to watch. Ngl, I like the light and fluffy shows. I'm not used to this stuff. it was so SO hard for me to watch this because the entire show was just SO HEAVY and intense. I really cant describe it any other way. But I could NOT put it down.It truly was a masterpiece though. The aesthetics they used in this show, was stunning. The colors they used were perfection.
I wont lie to you, there were a lot of parts where i felt lost, like i wasn't following along too good, like i thought i accidentally skipped over something, but that's just the way this show is laid out. Everything gets answered in the end.
I absolutely hate shows with a sad ending. They really do give me the most emotions, but I hate it.
About the show:
CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS!!!
Once again, this show was incredibly difficult for my heart to deal with. SO many mixed emotions.
There was a lot of screaming and yelling at each other, which doesn't really bother me, but in this show there was a lot of it, and for very extended amount of times.
There was like ZERO happy moments with In and Wang. i literally can only think of one. Every moment with those two was just super intense. ALOT of staring at each other without breaking eye contact (seriously it was insane). There's A TON of crying, its really hard to get through because every episode is just like so depressing, u hope they get over it all eventually and finally start being a lil happy BUT NOOOO. Doesn't happen. it just gets progressively worse and worse.
I usually cant stand huge age gaps like in this show, but this one was bearable so i wont complain about it.
ALSO, you dont get ONE DAMN KISS from these two. so if you are expecting any of that, dont. cuz it doesn't happen.
You literally only have like three characters in this series, but they pulled it off well.
ALSOOO it’s hard to grasp that all of this happened within just a few days. Like I dont even think it was a week long…
I have a few things to say about In and his character. Honestly I didn't hate or love him. Whenever Wang would say something about how he felt towards In, In would just have this blank look on his face and not say anything, which I understand why. I know that's how his personality is, it just kills me to watch it happen. He does not reciprocate the feelings at all. physically or emotionally. he never ever says anything about how he feels towards Wang , even though Wang knows how he feels, it still hurts that he never tells him, not once.
About the ending... from the VERY first episode, deep deep deep down i knew. i knew it was going to have a heartbreaking ending. i kept watching it though, hoping i was wrong and they would give me what i wanted. the further i got the more i knew it wasn't going to come. but the further i got the more i hoped they would prove me wrong and they would give me the ending i wanted. i watched the very last episode knowing exactly what was going to come my way. I wouldn't accept it. I kept watching after the credits telling myself i would NOT accept it to end like this. But here i am ranting about it.
i will NEVER re-watch this show. Everrrrrr.
(Edit: I rewatched it once. TERRIBLE decision. I warned myself so I shoulda known better :(
OVERALL :
Even though this show is far from my ideal type, it was just so good. They did a really good job which is why i give it a high rating. and i really did adore Wang. he was an incredible character. both men were great actors. i hope to watch Pond in another BL someday. ( a happy ending one next time. plz.)
Thank u for reading! ~ Dani

…What
So many unanswered questions.So many random moments that just didn’t make sense and served no purpose.
Honestly found myself super bored watching this. There wasn’t anything super memorable about this BL. Honestly I just watched it to fill in time while I’m waiting for Love in the Air to finish airing. I only finished it because I hate leaving shows unfinished if I can help it. I really really wished something had happened with the side couple (if you can even call them that) they introduced the idea of Baiboon and Khom forming a relationship together, but then they just left it hanging there. Nothing became of them. They just remained the same as before. They obviously both have feelings for each other but they just let that be and didn’t bother to do anything about it.
The main couple was honestly nothing spectacular. When a BL has really good romance and is super refreshing I find my self craving to watch the next episode every time. This show didn’t give me any of that. No butterflies from the romance parts. They could have made the romance so much better. There was no moment that ripped my heart out and I honestly missed that feeling of screaming at my screen “JUST KISS. JUST DO IT”. Now I am looking forward to finding a really good BL to watch after this to make me happy.
