Unbearable topics of cheating and toxicity but the pair of incredible actors saves it
As someone who watched the three sequels of EN of Love, the parts of Vee & Mark were the best for me. I felt good when the production company announced that the mini-show will be having a full series adaptation. And here I am, who finally completed watching the story that introduces me to my beloved BL pair, YinWar!
The sole reason why I kept watching this drama during its airing time was the solid acting performance of the two main characters and their undying chemistry along with the eye-candy visuals. However, it’s hard to fully enjoy the show since it revolves around the topics of cheating and toxicity inside a relationship. There are times that I don’t feel pity for Vee’s miserable love conflicts since it was also the consequence of his actions. Both he and his girlfriend cheated but the worst thing is, they choose to cling to each other even after knowing everything. The reason that also leads me to be irritated with Mark's attitude. He keeps being in a painful situation yet still accepts Vee several times. Fortunately, the drama has a good way of treating its characters with pros and cons. The good side of this topic is that, in reality, there are people who are closely related to Mark & Vee who choose to stay in a toxic relationship.
The finale was the best out of the ten episodes. I like that they offer a new kind of scenario during the sudden meet-ups of the two families. No overwritten dramas and just pure acceptance knowing that their sons are happily in love. It was also nice for the show to explain that sometimes financial status lowers the confidence of someone who’s in love with someone who belongs to a richer community. Mark’s tsundere father was in such a mood. It is a comedic moment during the scene when he reacted angrily to his son’s social media update regarding the hands with a ring, but in reality, he was smiling. Also, the glimpse of Yoo’s flirtatious approach to Kamphan was too short. I want to see more of them. They can become a cute and fine couple starring in another story or even having their own screen time in a sequel if possible.
“Couldn’t change the past, but is going to make the present the best.” This was the ending statement of Love Mechanics along with the image of the couple’s pair of mugs. It talks about how they manage to overcome the past and being in focus on the present with overflowing romance and sincerity. A great way to conclude Vee and Mark’s love story.
