Different than I expected
I'm not sure why I never chose to watch this even if this series has been in my list for a long time and I'm a big Narawin. I wanted something emotional so I decided to choose this one and from the description itself it did sound like an emotional series soooo. I have to say tha after watching this series it might've become on of those "comfort series without comfort". I really feel bad about missing out this fucking banger and poor homophobes, they don't get to see masterpieces like these very often.
It was soooo weird watching this as an 18 yeasr old and Phuwin playing 18 years old, since's he's obviously 19-20 years old. He looked way to mature playing a 18 year old. I had to laugh a bit because in the very first scene Phuwin REALLY reminds me of Wilhelm from the Swedish BL Young Royals.
I understand Nuengdiao's mom might've been in shock from her husband dying and very overprotective. She genuinely seems like a sweet woman but one small thing after he died irritated me. She was so fucking stern. I was really surprised when Nueng came out to her and she just casually accepted it. I was totally wrong about Nueng's mom. Palm's dad irritated me actually and I disliked him worse than Nueng's mom. He kept leaving his own kid out of everything even if Nueng clearly said certain things were okay, like driving to school with him. Only later on, of course, I started to get his dad more and more.
The difference between Palm and Nuengdiao being treated is super big, and through the whole series they really highlight this, till the last scene. Nueng is clearly always seen as the 'rich kid' who people hate on because he has money. They try to scam him or are simply jealous. At the whole school it didn't make a lot of sense to me, but it was mentioned Nueng was bullied before aswell, it wasn't new. I don't understand why his mom or the principal never did something about it, but you can clearly notice the bullying being after class so no teachers would notice.
I'm gonna be sooo honest, I forgot about ChimonPerth. And I have to admit, I secretly kinda shipping Nueng and Ben... SHHH. They were kinda cute together and I'm gonna be honest, I feel bad for Ben. Ben clearly had feelings for Nueng since the beginning and you can see the conflict in emotions Nueng has between choosing. He clearly has an eye for Palm butttt he does not refuse Ben specifically. I might feel even worse for Chopper though because bro is genuinely in an unrequited love situation. Poor Ben and Chopper bro.
Respectfully I do NOT like Nuengdiao. I know some people might not like this but hear me out. I grew up extremely poor and kept REALLY understanding Palm's side of the story but because of that I wasn't really looking at Nueng wth a neutral eye. I also didn't like how he kept causing all of the fights and how he broke up w my poor Palm. I get that Nuang has clear depression but I get depression from seeing another fucking fight on my screen.
A bit technical, I'm in fucking love with the colour grading and effects they've used through the whole show. AND I am for sure trying out Roti Sai Mai lmaoo. Actually originally I thought they were talking about Surinamese roti with cotton candy and I was like "huh who would do that?" and then realised they were talking about Roti Sai Mai.
