Theory of love is an amazing series. There are a lot of reasons for someone to watch it. First of all its refreshing but it never takes you too out of your comfort zone. Most BL series revolve around the same setting, the same plot but there's a fine line that TOL touches. The refreshing thing about it is the introduction of the Film scene, it intrigues the viewers not only the romantic journey of the couple but also the setting they reside. Each episode is named by a certain romance film providing context to the episode beforehand which is pure genius (gives you a list to binge after to get the references). The story maybe typical but there are factors that elevates it. The acting! I cannot give less to what Gun Atthapan's exquisite acting skills, squeezing all emotion to one scene that you cannot expect another from him in another episode. BUT! He gives it to you again! The music is kinda weird. Sometimes it doesn't fit in the scene and you feel awkward but the acting just disregards that. The one thing I must say I despise here is the ongoing trend in Thai BL drama incorporating non-consent kissing. It's uncomfortable to the viewers. But other than that it's an amazing series featuring another amazing performance of the OffGun tandem.
