If you've read yaoi manga for quite some time and enjoy the enemies-to-lovers trope, then you've most definitely read a story *just* like this before.

Actually, does anyone know if it's actually based off of a manga or Thai novel? Because it feels like it.

STORY:

Anyway, the story is nothing new. It's filled with a lot of tropes and at times cringey cliches. The story is pretty predictable, and it's one of those Thai BLs that reads exactly like a yaoi manga because of the structure and main tropes.
The only new thing it offers is that it is a Thai live action production, which honestly adds some intrigue to it. My friend pointed out that it looks similar to a Korean production, and I do agree with that.

Aspects about the story I didn't like:
I have no idea how old the youngest brother is, but I assumed he was in high school. The way they introduced him made it seem like he may be the love interest for Sichol and I was not okay with that. There is no second couple, thank goodness. Speaking of Sichol, I both enjoyed and disliked his character. I felt like having an outrageous character in this kind of mellow story was a good idea; he adds some flavor to the mix. But then he started becoming annoying at times. And then eventually, I flat out forgot about him.

The thing I hated about the story the most, however, is the romantic "plot twist" they tried to add at the end. Maybe I wasn't paying as much attention as I thought when each episode dropped every week, but I actually didn't think they'd try to add last minute drama. If you know me, you know that I hate when a BL resolves a story a couple of episodes too early and then try to fill in the rest of the time with useless drama. And what made it even worse was how dragged out it was and how Nawee kept refusing to let Aioun talk. I understand that on one hand, it would make sense for someone like Nawee to react that way after everything he *just* went through. But instead it felt like they were trying to stretch things out to last until the end.

PRODUCTION/ACTING:

I would say watch the drama for the visuals, acting, and wardrobe. If you pay attention to stuff like cinematography and color grading, then I think you'd enjoy this show. There are a lot of scenes that just look very pretty, same with the sets. Speaking of, they pretty much only worked with two sets (and very briefly with the diner/cafe at the end), and I think they did a great job with that.

The acting is very good, even from the characters that don't really have much to offer. The chemistry between Nawee's and Aioun's actors is VERY good. I would love to see them in another BL some time soon.

I don't know anything really about suits, but I thought the wardrobes looks great right down to the color choices for the scenes. He doesn't wear a suit, but I loved Oab's looks; yes, including the awful mullet. There's something about the actor where he's about to pull it off very well.

And yes. The sex scene is one of the best sex scenes I've seen in a BL. If you want to skip everything and just go straight to that scene, I wouldn't blame you. Not only was the chemistry great, but it was *beauuuutifully* filmed. Like, WOW.

Also, I honestly didn't pay too much to the music, but the theme song is very nice, if anything.

REWATCH?

I would say no. I would only rewatch it for color theory/story/visuals, but that's it.
.....And probably rewatch that sex scene LOL
