I really liked it... but...
I didn't expect this review to be this long but bear with me.
So... the show is good and, I loved the characters and their chemistry was really good. I loved Sarawat sassiness and I'm happy that a found a show that could actually entertain me, that's why gave it an 8.5.
However, some things didn't sit right with me.
1. Girls in the show are these crazy people that when they see a handsome boy they freak out and start taking pictures... I don't really know what happens in Asia, but I know they preach beauty all the time, and I mean, are beautiful people harassed like that?... probably it is over-exaggeration, but I didn't like it that much.
2. Shows and movies are art, and there is no need to intimate scenes between couples if it is justifiable, but they are literally teasing the viewer the whole show for just like 2 or 3 kisses... I suppose it is for people to watch season 2.
3. Why is Tine dating Sarawat, publicly admitting it, but feeling this kinda o disgust of him? I mean we're a couple, right? Reacting to Sarawat wanting to get intimate as being nasty, I feel is kinda wrong (I know having sex is called "doing the nasty", but this expression is usually used in jokes). If you don't want to do the "nasty" why are you dating him? intimacy is part of the relation. Even though viewers are probably either girls or gays, I don't feel it is right.
4. This is something that I saw not only in this show but, why can I hear the microphones?! I'm literally Gia Gunn: "there is no budget this time around?". Ahahaha
And finally, why I always get offended by the characters wanting to lighten their skin? In the show, we are bombarded with ads for skincare, and I have nothing against it. But the characters are literally taking glutathione, claiming it provides beautiful skin (I watched a dermatologist video on that and it seems that glutathione can possibly improve wrinkles and whatever) but we all know that the reason people in Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and The Philipines take these pills is to lighten their skin. I have brown skin, so I'm kind of offended.
Disclaimer: these are my opinions.
