A solid BL until it wasn't.

So, one couple at a time.

Kit & Mark:

I felt that Mark was too pushy and demanding. In his defense, Kit was constantly hiding how he truly felt. It couldn't have been easy for Mark. I can admire him for not giving up. They did have many sweet moments, despite the long chase. I am happy Mark stopped when he and Kit were getting it on because Kit was drunk after all and not in the right state of mind. I didn't appreciate how Mark tried to make Kit believe they had done something, though. This series was about Mark and Kit, but they quickly became rather insignificant to the story. I found that odd.

Tong & Pok:

Their relationship was quite toxic. What saved them was their to-die-for chemistry. In my opinion, they had the best chemistry out of all the couples, and they were barely even a couple. I didn't enjoy the scene in the last episode where Pok was forcing himself on Tong. No, he didn't rape him, nor did he kiss his lips, but he did kiss his neck and such. Overall, they didn't have a very healthy relationship. I thought it was obvious that they were in love. Unfortunately, they were horrible at communicating with each other and showing that love.

Jack & Koh:

Their endless fighting over Wayu was ridiculous, honestly. I kept expecting them to stop and realize they should get together instead. That didn't happen in this season, though. They had so much potential.

Padbok & Sab:

We didn't get to see much of them in this season, but from the promotional videos, and such, I believe they are supposed to become a couple, just not now. They were only really shown together right at the start, and then they disappeared. I would like to see more of them.

Wayu, Thanu, Phai, and Sandee need to have their own individual section.

Wayu:

They made him such a crybaby in this. In the first half of the series, he was crying nonstop. I didn't dislike him as much as other people did, however. The part about Pha was so dreadful. I didn't care that much, quite frankly. Maybe Wayu should have just sorted out his feelings before falling for someone new. I mean, that was sort of hard when Mark kept pushing him into moving on, I guess.

Thanu:

The man was boring. He had zero personality until the very last episode, and even then, his character was still very vague. His way of handling things was stupid. Ignoring Wayu for his own good, you said? You said you didn't want to hurt him? He had just gotten ditched by his boyfriend, and then you proceeded to think ignoring him wouldn't hurt him? Not just that, but you also made all of his friends help you ignore him. This man got me heated multiple times over his inability to know how to act properly. He also did Phai so wrong. Why couldn't he just have decided what he wanted, or more accurately, who he wanted? His feelings made no sense. All of a sudden, he liked Wayu when there had been no indication of that prior? He just left me with so many questions.

Phai:

He was an angel. The best character, I would say. He knew he had lost, so he sacrificed his own happiness and let them be happy in peace. He never tried to get in between them. Phai deserved way better than Thanu, anyway. Hopefully, he gets someone in the next season.

Sandee:

I didn't quite get him. I thought he liked Phai, but what he did in the last episode would make no sense if that was the case. Maybe he did like him, and I misunderstood his intentions completely. I don't know. I also didn't get why he was so interested in other people's business. He should have just minded his own business.

As a bonus, Pha:

I won't say much else than fuck him. I did NOT care about him, not even one bit. No matter what his reason was for leaving Wayu like that, I still won't care. Bringing him back was unnecessary.

Negatives:

The series as a whole was a little messy. There were just too many characters. I thought we had gotten past the whole everyone is gay/bi/pan. Although a world like that would be beautiful, it's just not realistic, not that this series ever claimed to be realistic, but still.

There were a lot of repeated scenes and long pauses. I assume they found it hard to fill out hour longs episodes. Perhaps they should have just shortened them a bit instead. I'd rather have shorter good quality episodes.

Also, the amount of almost kisses Thanu and Wayu had, my God. I don't know how they managed to butcher Thanu and Wayu's chemistry so badly. In real life, Dun and Bas have great chemistry. What happened? I'm going to blame that stupid love triangle situation.

I really hope the next season is better organized.

Positives:

Bas, Copter, and Kim have improved their acting a lot since I last saw them. I didn't feel as forced.

Sab. Just Sab.

The kisses were surprisingly not awkward.

There was no, I'm-only-gay-for-you bullshit.

I think that's it, sadly.
