cute, but why the hype?
Full disclaimer: I watched it in 2025. It was one my first watched thai Bls, after Laws of Attraction and Until We Meet Again.I am an Asian, so this type of enemies to lovers story is not new in this part of the world, its been done so many times. Heck, its Romeo and Juliet minus the tragedy. To me this story wasn't novel, the uni scenes were standard college interaction, the romance wasn't heated, I felt bored mid-way and skipped some scenes, yet I persevered through to understand what the hype was all about. And.. I just don't get it. It was by no means bad, pretty decent for BL standards, but it didnt meet the expectation I had for this BL. The actors looked great but their acting left much to be desired. UWMA on the other hand is older and the story was much more impactful than this one.
This show feels dated, but even for 2021. I remember watching this type of family enemies to lovers concept in the 90s television.

Not recommended
- Body swap is not a new concept, not even new to BL.- Cringe acting, especially Nat, but Idk why I bother watching his series, maybe I hoped he would get better, maybe I wanted to see Max.
- Repetitive scenes. I honestly cant even be bothered to skip to the end like I usually do. Bad writing, bad acting, bad everything.
I have dropped a few series, but this is my first 1 star review, it was that bad.

Dropped due to FL
Basically the title. I watched 1 episode and decided the show was not for me. So this review has no bearing to reminder of the show whatsoever. I wanted to continue just for the ML, but the FL, while pretty, was too annoying: naive and childish. I'm not sure if its the acting or the way her character is written, but whatever, I've been watching strong FL characters recently and I just cant go back to the usual Asian stereotypical FL whose only function is to fall in love with the ML. I maybe wrong, lets hope for the sake of others who decide to continue the show.Was this review helpful to you?
