Light-hearted GL with just a pinch of nice character development
I think for a bubbly, cute rom-com in the backdrop of rural Thailand, Hometown Romance did exactly what it set out to do: deliver a fun, refreshing GL that is uplifting, with loveable characters and lots of comedic relief. For what it is, Hometown Romance did well. They never promised any deep drama or anything too serious; it's still supposed to be a countryside rom-com and I think the outcome fits the bill.
It's fun, it's colourful and the chemistry is great. I didn't expect anything too deep; they still gave us a lovely bit of character development.
LMSY delivered an amazing performance as always!
While there were some sequences that felt a bit too rushed or perhaps the villain arc was a bit shallow, I think that doesn't take away too much from the series overall.
So, I think this is for everyone who wants to enjoy a GL that is a bit different, refreshing and fun, or perhaps someone who is looking for a drama with beautiful countryside shots bc there's LOTS! I know all the LMSY fans don't even need convincing for this one :)
