This show is a bad fanfic.
Now I know. Thai BL series are all pretty much fan service for fujoshis. This one however reminds me of those fics written by 13 year old girls who know nothing about relationships, let alone queer ones.
The humour is silly and childish and seems out of place with the overall plot. A lot of it brought me so much second hand embarrassment that I had to stop and take a moment to shake it off.
I'm used to awkward kisses too but the main characters looked like they were being held at gunpoint during theirs, and when they're hidden by the camera angle it's obvious they aren't even touching. Not saying the actors are to blame for this, maybe that's how they were directed, but either way it looks cheap. Their chemistry lacked too.
Overall everything felt shallow and halfway done. I couldn't get invested into the characters or relationships. Interactions seemed forced and awkward and I couldn't get myself to click next past the 8th episode.
If you want some mindless fantasy, and cute guys to lose your mind over then this is for you. But if you're holding out for a good narrative and interesting characters you might want to skip.
