Emotionally attached Mafia Bosses are now everyone's type
WOW.
This drama is genuinely one of the best things that has ever happened to me.
I honestly don't think I'll ever be able to explain coherently how absolutely everything about it took my breath away over and over again, had me silently screaming in my room at 5 a.m and giggling nonstop. This BL made me feel so many more emotions than I ever expected.
And honestly, I wasn't convinced from the start.
Before watching Me & Thee, the only thing I knew was that it was a romance... but also a comedy. I was genuinely worried because Thai BL humor (no offense, I'm obviously not trying to generalize) tends to make me cringe more than anything else, or simply leaves me bored.
Well... not this one.
I genuinely think trying not to smile while watching this drama is physically impossible. My cheeks have never worked this hard. I laughed so much, and I mean ACTUALLY laughed, not just the polite little exhale most dramas get out of me.
And that's mainly thanks to a well-written story and incredibly lovable characters.
M. Thee's eccentric personality contrasts so beautifully with Peach's tenderness that somehow they end up complementing each other perfectly. Their personalities shouldn't work together as well as they do, and yet they absolutely do. Their intertwined destinies don't just bring humor and joy to the story, they also give both characters so much emotional depth.
I absolutely loved how persistent M. Thee was.,Honestly, THANK YOU for finally giving us a character who's actually capable of talking about his feelings. I loved him because, for what feels like the first time ever in a BL, every important question actually gets asked. He leaves no room for misunderstandings because once he falls in love, giving up simply isn't an option.
And Peach is just as lovable. Little by little, he opens his heart and lets M. Thee into what used to be his world but slowly becomes their world.
The cinematography completely caught me off guard. It looks gorgeous. And I want to sincerely thank the glam team because they absolutely understood the assignment. They did an incredible job. I mean... there's no way you can ignore the facecards this cast is serving.
The chemistry between Pond and Phuwin is also absolutely insane. They took my breath away more times than I can count. I genuinely had to pause a few scenes just to regain my composure. The eye contact. The lingering touches. The way every moment between them is wrapped in both tenderness and unbearable tension...
I truly hope they have a very, veeeeery long career ahead of them because their talent left me speechless. And yes, I'm delulu and convinced it's because they're literally made for each other.
As for the ending... I understand why some people criticize it. Sure, you could argue that it feels a little rushed, but this is Theerakit Kian Lee we're talking about. Honestly, I think any more grounded or understated ending would've felt bland in comparison.
Now... were the kids necessary? Absolutely not ---
That's probably the only thing that bothered me. They don't really add much to the story, and they end up taking way more screen time than they needed to. ( ￣＾￣)
Overall, I had an incredible time watching this drama. It became part of my daily routine and brought me so much more comfort than I ever expected.
Stories like this reconnect us with our humanity because every emotion they make us feel reminds us that we're alive. Sure, maybe we're living indirectly through fictional characters... but it's still living !
Being a BL fan is such a beautiful thing. ^^
