What the hell was that plot
ABAB should have just stayed the fluffy story between Cher and Gun for 12 episodes. Would it be boring? Maybe. But I prefer that to whatever the loving god we got instead. I am seriously struggling to pick which BL got a dumber and worse written plot between ABAB and Cutie Pie. Cutie Pie might actually be better, which is saying SOMETHING.
The first half was fine. Actually, I really like Cher. He is a really refreshing BL character and I look Book's acting. They were couply and cute and having fun, like that's nice! We like nice things!!
Then they went and fucked over the second half.
The plot makes no sense whatsoever, what was the point of the whole ex bff? It rarely did anything for the plot. Cher basically breaking up with Gun in his head 500 times and irl 5 times and then Gun's mom only purpose is being a pain in the ass, she's not even one of these bitchier mother-in-laws. Her character makes no sense. She didn't even offer money!!! And then suddenly did a 180 like what?
Apropos 180! What the FUCK was Gun's character whiplash in episode 9? It didn't even fit his character and then there were NO CONSEQUENCES FOR HIM!! NONE!!! NOT EVEN A WORD!!! Literally ruined Gun for me.
And why the fuck was that co-worker who basically came outta nowhere the one sending the information??? Why did they built this up SO POORLY??
Either way, if I would rant about everything I hated, I'd never finish.
What I liked: The friend group is nice. I know some find Zo and Three useless to the plot, but I'd take them over the senseless plot any time. Jack was (trying to be) a good friend. I did like how they included he has depression and how everyone was chill bout it but they incorporated it so poorly, I wanna start ranting again.
I also think it's cool they talked about marriage equality in Thailand.
That being said: Why the hell would you build the last 10 minutes of ep 12 like it's a proposal AND THEN IT ISN'T???
Okay, done ranting. The drama is fine. Plotwise a black hole. If you ignore any sense you can like it enough, I guess. I am, however, rooting for ForceBook in Only Friends!
