Kuea wanted love and now he’s tired of it

This series is seriously way beyond my expectations. They are pushing out song after song for the OST, and I love that it’s not your typical BL or Thai series style. It’s like a Korean drama where it picks up from when the last episode ended, and I am just loving the story and chemistry between the actors. There’s just something about it that gives me butterflies!

At first, I was dubious about this series. I thought CutiePie would be that cliché romance drama about arranged marriage, but I was wrong. Yes, the major plot on arranged marriage is typical. But CutiePie is way more than that! I loved how it centered more on loving yourself, being the true one self, and showing this version to the person you love. And Kuea's character showed that, with their character development throughout the story. CutiePie teaches us that love should not be defined by our society, and should not be defined by what others expect of us. Love should be defined by the two people who trust and care for each other, that love is both loving the true self while loving the person who is dear to you. And... Kuea and Kilen's story showed this love to us.

The series also taught us that married life is about trusting and supporting each other because love is shared between two people who trusts one another. It's not one-sided; one should not face a problem alone but together, and this is realized through Hia Lian's character. This series really taught us that COMMUNICATION and HONESTY is very important in every relationship for it to prosper and last a long time, a lot of people (including me) found the make up scene too quick/easy... but after thinking about it, maybe it's really that easy sometimes? especially if you both communicate well, which i think they did. they both shared their faults, thoughts, feelings that's what made the scene seem so smooth!! communication is truly the key to a good relationship. And no nobody can blame Kuea if he thinks that Hia Lian has a bad intention, like he suddenly started showering him with love and professed his undying love for him out of blue, so if I were in his shoes I will have doubt him too.

Thank You to the incredible cast and crews for this wonderful series that imparted a lot to me, thank you for letting Zee and NuNew to take these roles and bring the characters to life! Thank you to all other actors, who brought so much sentiment and depth to this series. This show has a great team behind it, nothing seems cringy or forced and the characters feel like real people with insecurities and fears but also wants and needs. It's well written, edited and directed. The soundtrack is superb and the actors are beyond committed. They make you care for every story, even the ones with less airtime. Genuinely didn't think I would be this invested in the show before its premiere. Expectations can be a drag sometimes. While some really anticipated shows are already disappointing, this unexpected gem is stealing the show. And also let this be a lesson to everyone DO NOT DO A PUBLIC WEDDING PROPOSAL UNLESS THE OTHER PERSON WANTS IT, I know this is created drama for TV series, but in real life please do not do this. It places too much pressure to say yes on the person being proposed to, unless they have expressed wanting a public one and you should probably make sure you’re on the same page before proposing marriage.

And also I feel the scene with Nuchy is quite important, I have been having the feeling that girl characters in many BL's are portrayed as immature, some even as jealous psychos bitches and some as a pathetic characters. I feel the ladies deserve way more respect from the genre so this is important, Well done to Cutie Pie for sort of subtly but sort of directly and strongly address this issue. And also EXCUSE ME, but every time i’m watching the intimate scene made me feel like I’m invading their privacy. That whole kissing scene is so pure and the emotions are overflowing. Now, I’m convinced that I don’t have any single qualification to be an actor, I’ll immediately fall in love in an instant right after a scene like that. Lol. I do appreciate them showing real life kissing, as opposed to the static (uncomfortable) kisses we sometimes see. I depicts the love and passion they feel towards each other which I find beautiful to watch. And please tell me how both Hia Lian and Hia Yi managed to hire comedians as their personal secretaries Lol, and where can i sign petition for TutorYim's separate series cuz I JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THEM!!
