Exceptional acting

The story starts out like an entertaining romance that fizzles, then picks up steam as they reunite years later. As the story progresses things fall apart and the romance inexplicably comes to an end, with each going their separate ways. it is frustrating to watch as things take a dark turn. The male lead remains a lovable charter throughout the drama, but the female lead does not. Both lead characters do a fine job playing very emotional roles, but the male lead is really exceptional at emoting his pain and suffering. His emotions project to the audience and are palpable to the point that I found myself tearing up several times through numerous episodes. His performance is the reason I rated it higher than most others. Truth be told, I did not want the male lead to reunite with his first love.

Went from calling him slurs to calling him his husband

I don’t write reviews for special episodes that are only one episode because I don’t see the point but I’ll let it slide because I really wanted to use the headline lol. Because I thought it was funny.

After 26 episodes. Like 10 years in the show, I think and 1 month and 3 days in real life. Everything was this show is done. The sex tape ending kinda went crazy, other than that, the wedding was mid and I’m disappointed they didn’t do more with this lol.

If they did actually do more with this then the review would have definitely been a higher. I’m not saying a ten but it would have been higher. But they didn’t do more with this, so it’s a 7.5 stars out of 10 stars.

The ending picture at the wedding was cute. And the flashback scenes like I didn’t watch the show, the season 2, and the two specials all in one go. They had some pretty good lines in this. I’ll give them that.

Nothing happened. Wouldn’t recommend. But if you are just like damn I’ve really gotten this far and I’m not going to watch them get married, like I did. Just go for it. It’s a light 1 hour 10 minutes. And you just see all the characters. Okay I’m gonna try and finish Vice versa now, because I’m done with all things Tharntype. Okay bye!

It was AMAZING! But...

The plot was amazing (besides some loopholes)
Acting (Amazing!)

But what I wanted was more of Black. I guess it was because the story was mostly shown through the perspective of White. Throughout the series we get to listen White's monologues and his growth and change of view point while the storyline proceeds.

When Black got out of coma, I was happy as I was curious to get to know more about Black and also Todd. But I got disappointed... Throughout the last few episodes I was like where is Black!? What is he upto!? As he keep on coming in and out of the story. But it makes no sense because this whole gang thing started because of him! He was the leader! He brought in everyone under Gumpa! Out Of everyone he was one of the most interesting characters of the series.

I can only wish for season 2, which could be from Black's POV. Like how he got ambushed by Todd, what was happening behind the scenes after he woke up from coma and even more on his relationship between Eugene and Sean. I Want to know more about what happened between them? How was it before Black went into Coma. I Want more!😭

Can we pls get Season 2 😭😭🙏🙏

Remind me so much of another drama.

When does it get better? Don’t get me wrong, it’s cute but I’m on episode 6 and I think I’m going to give it another episode before I drop it. This show reminds me so much of A Love So Beautiful (which I didn’t like) with a perky, obsessed FL and a stoic ML. I know he has a reason for being that way but all ML have reasons.

Seriously though why do they make these high school girls so forward when they like a guy? They are out there following them around even when the guys doesn’t show interest (as audiences we see the tiny smiles but the FL doesn’t!). I’m trying to remember if I’ve ever encountered any girls like that in school but came up with nothing.

The cast is fine but the FL remind me so much of a younger Esther Yu. I am already not the biggest fan of EY so it’s been taxing.

Slow burn, simple, charming

This was a no frill romance, yet perfectly executed.
So charming, simple, pure and just transports you into a world of warmth and everlasting love.
Perfect prescription for a rainy day, feel good moment.

The ML and FL are excellent with sizzling chemistry and intimacy is heart fluttering.
The brother is excellent. Never once drops his relationship with the sister.
That little girl who comes in the first few episodes is absolutely cute. There is so much mischief in her eyes and she pulls off the perfect brat scene well.

My only gripe with most c- dramas is the use of the squeaky baby voice....why why why is that so popular when it is irritating to most global viewers?

And the other irritating part are the tiny skirts and shorts that the girls have to wear.
Do the regional local girls actually wear such tiny skirts and shorts that almost reveal their groin areas?
If they do then I guess it's fair for cdramas to portray them otherwise it's sexist and actually turning-off.

Fun watch

I watched this awhile ago and his personality is hilarious. I've gone back and played a few scenes to show people the funny scenes. It was well-acted, and the story moved at a good pace. A little slow in the middle, but then it picked up again. The FL and ML has great chemistry, both were capable of both the humorous parts and the romantic parts. There are serious parts in the story too and so it gives it a good balance. But for the most part, it is humorous and light. So if you're looking for something fun to watch with a group of friends, then I don't think you could go wrong with this one. Light plot, but lots of cute and funny moments.

What Is Not To Like?

I believe everything in the rave of this drama has been accurately expressed in most, if not all that’s said already. I mean it’s about nearly perfectly executed. A girls love in every step from when she felt it to its maturation, is so relatable to us, no matter what age. For older ones (me), it’s a reminder of that time when our stomachs felt butterflies in our crushes. Younger generation? Yeah, this is a great portrayal of union done right. The leads, Zhao Lusi and Chen Zhe Yuan, absolutely nailed their parts and carried this drama to a nestling masterpiece.

I particularly loved the way she cared for him. She’s much younger than him ((story) but her defense of him, from giving him money, to throwing water, to comforting him like she’s his mother was so touching. I don’t want to get mushy on everyone so really. Find out for yourself why this drama scored so high among viewers. It has a great storyline and wonderfully acted by its main and supporting cast. Of course, bravo to screen writer and producer and their team.

Is that the ending?

I first was really into the story. The tension was really high and I was wishing that they will be as much drama as regular drama. But no... They missed the mark by quickly ending the series. I wanted more father-son fight head to head to prove himself. I was hopping that Pat's evolution as a strong man (he's always crying) will be also shown. Gays are not the kind who are crying everywhere, because we never wanna show our weaknesses. I also wished for more between Pat and his ex, and also Jeng and his ex. It was way to flat and could have used more.

I think that Tee was too ambitious in this project and took a very complicated drama and cut it short for GMMTV. It's sad because I really had hope that it would be a good one. Everything changed when Pat quit his job. From then, it turned very fast. So fast it makes you feeling upset because you want to know more. When everything was slow at the beginning, it went so fast with so many things at once you loose the plot and interest and just wanna know the ending.

And lets not forget the frustrating story of Jaab and Jane. Not only it was one side story I loved, I also wanted much more from it. But as soon as they kissed, they became nearly invisible. Of course, it took time, but when Jane told Jaab he broke up with his boyfriend, thing could have become a reverse flirt with Jane trying to get Jaab, even if he wouldn't succeed and leave to Japan, it would have been better than just make them dessaper from each other's life. Jaab is so cute, he could have finish by being with Pat's ex, Put. They do work in the same environment and could have been better together at the end, after Jane left to Japan.

And who wasn't exited to see AA again. I wish he was going to be one of the main couples when I saw him, but he's only Jeng's friend and business partner. He could have been Moon's new boyfriend after Jane left him after kissing Jaab.

They missed so many things that it was hard to watch until the end. I do love the cast, and it is not about the acting (they were all fantastic), it is only about the storyline.

Plus, having a very high profile actor like Pete Thongchua to play Jeng's father and Orn Ornanong Panyawong to play Pat's mother mean that is was not a problem of money for this to be amazing.

So yes, I am disappointed. If only GMMTV would give more attention to the story instead of pushing for only short series, it would be good. I do love dramas because it is shorter than US series that goes for years. But when you have a good story, it could also be a bad thing !

Cute and Refreshing Drama

The storyline is actually quite typical but the casts and products in this drama (the stuffed animals, their outfits, the freaking frog phone case!) make the drama so so cute! Zhaolusi really embodies Sang Zhi so well (they're both lovely and cute and sincere). Her transition from high schooler to college student is very convincing. This is my first time seeing Chen Zheyuan but he really gave me a good impression in this drama. Especially during those scenes where he was touched but didn't want to cry in front of Sang Zhi. Two thumbs up to the cast and production team! A very refreshing watch. Can't help but smile throughout the drama.

This is a nice romantic comedy with a small dose of secrets, rapidly solved misunderstanding, and a lot of familial love. The leading couple has some heart tugging moments as well as some really nice playful ones. The romantic scenes are not earth shattering but they are nicely done. The drama is very lighthearted and even the antagonist revenge plot doesn’t affect the relationship among the leading characters but, instead, makes it stronger. There is a secondary couple but their storyline is not one that develops nicely and steadily. The last two episodes feel rushed and the end, although nice and cute, is bland. The kids and the leading couple’s interactions with them are the saving grace to this drama. Although is not a great drama, it is pleasant and entertaining.

still beefing 7 years later

My episode average was an 8.1, so I rounded down because this was mid, so very mid. Nothing really happened. This was light work and easy watching, so I will give them that, but nothing actually happened. They were still doing the same stuff they were doing at the start of their relationship. Nothing special. Okay, I am going to just talk about the couples because I didn't really post anything about this on my close friend's story, because the show sucked lol.

Starting off with Tharn and Type because the show is named after them and they are the first actors that come up on the cast and credits, Nothing special. They are still getting into the same nasty fights they got into when they first got together. No one has any character development whatsoever. They had a few banging sex scenes, so they still have their chemistry, or whatever it is. Tharn was a lot more clingy in this. Like he would pout and sulk when he didn't get his way. I noticed that; that was his character development, I guess. Type was really getting into his wife's era. Tharn was just talking about how he could quit his job and he would take care of him. and Type was like say less bro. He cooks, cleans, does laundry, irons the clothes, basically does everything for Tharn. That was his character development. He sucks at showing his emotions, so he shows his love with chores and stuff like that. So I guess that's sort of cute. And I thought I was done with this stupid show, but nope, I have to watch them get married in a separate episode. My lord, okay, next couple.

Leo and Fiat Their presence in this makes me miss dont say no. It was my first BL drama in my most recent era of boys love dramas. It really got me back into it, and seeing them in this made me miss it so much. Fuck, I forgot how much of a homewrecking little whore Fiat used to be. He got on my fucking nerves with this. Poor Leo, bro. He's always loved him; I remember that, and that really stuck with me. He just watched his crush be with every single man in the world before he even looked at him. I don't remember (probably because I watched Don't Say No on Billi Billi back when it was still available in America, lol) Leo being this aggressive and dominating. I just love it so much. He was very handsy, and most of the time he stepped back from Fiat's love life, but his getting pissed off and yelling at Fiat was, my god, very sexy. I miss them for real for real. They are so fucking cute, and I love them so much. Besides Fiat's little homewrecker era, that was gross.

Next up are Champ and Dr. Khunpol, or Doc or Khunpol in the streets. They were cute, and I liked them. This show was collecting tropes like they were Pokemon with these couples. Doc had liked Champ since freshman year but had to keep his feelings to himself because he didn't want to end their friendship, which was cute. Doc is actually such a cutie; my god, he was adorable. I'm kind of mad at their ending, but whatever. They could have had so much more potential, but that was never reached, sadly. They were still really cute, and Champ's willingness to understand love just for Doc was really cute. Loved them.

And our last actually relevant couple is Phugun and Cirrus, or Cir, in the streets and the sheets. They were my favorite couple, and I still don't know why. I just loved their dynamic so much and fell in love with them instantly. Phugun was the cousin that they never talked about in tharn type or probably did, and I just was not listening at all because I am really bad at that. Phugun was the cousin of the Th family (th because all of the kids names start with th, lol). He was so adorable, my god. so innocent and just wants to love everyone. Their sex scene was good, bro. The way Phugun was talking to Cir was crazy, bro. That scene kind of told me that appearance is a front to get what he wants, and I really respect that. Cir was your average jealous boyfriend, who just kind of stood back and loved his boyfriend in the midst of the chaos that was unfolding next door. They were cute. My favorite couple If I was going to watch back, it would be their sex scene, lol. That was good. The sexuality of the whole thing was just amazing and lovely. I am actually going to go find it right now lol.

Yeah, that's about it. This is skippable because nothing actually happened. It didn't ruin the ship per se; it was just not necessary at all because nothing happened. The creators just tried to milk a really popular ship, and it didn't work. Now I have to watch another episode just to see these bozos get married. After that, I am done with Tharntype for good. I don't know what the goofy ass parent story is, but fuck that. This was a light watch, and it's still the same Tharn and type. Okay bye!
