When a Series Adaption too close to the Novel, It feels like Heaven.

First of I'm a novel fan. When a series is adapted from a novel I would be really particular to see how the works is being made to one. I read the Hemp Rope and I'm so inlove between the story of WinTeam. All that they did, all the emotion they have, all the words they speak of, all that are like your favorite food that will make you full but you'll continue to eat it because it makes you happy. While adaptation have the rights to change most plots and adds other stuff, I like how Between Us had choosen to keep the main plot in full, even the amazing lines they said, It was nice to read it but hearing it is even more better. My heart is very satisfied with this adaptation, I almost cry with happiness as to how Boun & Prem personified WinTeam. They have done their best and I approve them and will only consider as the only Hia Win and Team could ever be. I also understand the series tweak some important details from the novel as the novel is emotionally too heavy to deal with. Nonetheless all WinTeam centered plot both novel & series is like heaven for me.

Talk about acting Boun & Prem can truly deliver. I'm almost in awe. I love how they know their characters so well and executed main-heavy scenes superbly. It gives me goosebumps with their powerful acting. It's just great. Their acting potential is limitless, they can explore more and improve and grow. I will look forward to their future projects.

Just like any other bl drama, this series has some flaws as well (repeatitive flashbacks, too many micro stories -they're really good and well executed but feel off, 2 new cp, over screentime to certain frames ) but it was negligble to me as I am always drawn to good acting by Main Leads and overall imagery of the series and this one just hit all my checkmarks to be a series I would surely rewatch again.
