The Drama Is Strong With This One

This was a series that pleasantly surprised me! Was it overly dramatic to be overly dramatic sometimes? Yes, yes it was but it was a fun train wreck to watch. Before I start the review part, yes I also liked the "straight" couples in this series. So we can move on from that, though I will say my favorite couple happened to be Earth and Sam whom happened to be a gay couple.

Right off the bat the show felt more realistic than a lot of other Thai dramas I've watched. We see very real money problems, struggling relationships, trying to find your niche in life, etc etc. The characters each have their own set of problems and it was interesting to see how they dealt with them (or didn't deal with them). My favorite characters ended up being Earth (duh), Boom and Good. They were the characters that pissed me off the least amount of times lol and were all good people throughout the show. Though every character was interesting, even if they frustrated the hell out of me. I gotta say too, Boom is gorgeous though, mad crushing on her for real!

I didn't care for Amm and Bern's story, Amm was fine, Bern's ass I would beat so far into the ground though I swear. But their collective story didn't interest me much. Also Tor needed to go, holy crap that guy doesn't deserve a rock let alone Boom! Stud was a ticking time bomb from the start, he had some development as the story progressed like admitting he shouldn't of hurt people he loved (ie. Earth) but even with the development he's kind of a character you love to hate. Which is totally fine and totally worked for me watching his scenes!

I gotta also say, Earth and Boom's friendship yaaaasss. It was so solid and I was here for it. And thank you Earth for not putting up with Sam's BS and trying to spin it around on you. You are enough and he effed up big time, he starts making up for it in the end but we don't forgive that easily. Something that bugged me in this show though was the constant digs at Boom's profession. Modeling is indeed a PROFESSION. It doesn't mean people can take pics without consent from you, you also cannot be grabbed without consent. Wear what you want and don't quit a job for a man (looking at you Tor!)

Watch this show if you want some drama, some of it pretty shallow but entertaining!
