Amor Por Acaso (2018)

LBC was my first BL series .. I love the story between ae and Pete . I love how good actor ae is you could literally understand what he wants to say even if don't speak .. his expression are so good.i was so surprised that he was 17 when he shooted.storyline does justice about accidentally meeting strangers to friends and falling in love what I love about their relationship is even they have ups and downs , insecurities but they quicky wrap up whole thing instead of letting things becoming big issues.. Pete is cutest thing ever .. tin can story was like typical enemy to lovers but I felt bad for tin and can because tin didnot get the happiness and can who is late to realise what he feels .tin acting was very impressive.. Tum n tar is something taboo subject but it does happen in real life ..was very impressed with tar acting rape victim I cried when he did .. kengla and pno storyline I didnot like it's totally stalkerish behaviour and his bro was so stupid . Kla shouldnot have taken advantage of pno .. he is too innocent guy.. that was disgusting .. but I was very impressed with kla acting .. good story , music and actors . ....

Saint-Perth-Mean-Plan Superb acting

The first few episodes were confusing for me. The story jumps from one prominent lead couple to another supporting couple. From the start finding and focusing on the story was frustrating.
After 5 episodes I became aware of what exactly was happening so I started skipping other characters' scenes. except for Ae's Friend and Pete's friend. after 3-to 4 episodes when Ae's and Pete's story windup (they get together and start living life as boyfriends I skip on that) and focus on Pete's friend 'Tin'. Tin's character and his paired up started to gain my interest. Then I watched Tin and Can's character story till the end. I was disappointed when the series ended with Tin's crying. I was expecting to start season 2 but when I read a review of that. I again faced disappointment to find out they changed Tin and Can character setting and also changed Ae and Pete's character setting. so I will be skipping season 2 and I am done with this.

Let's talk about the production: They cast so many characters and university/house the whole drama setting where drama was shot and the usage of prompts wasted money. They should have focused on the main characters. 2 main couples are also acceptable but 5 couples. it was too much. The story was stuffed.
Ost was good and catchy. The story would have been more interesting if it was only focused on "Ae and Pete" and "Tin and Can".

You can just watch it for fun and don't mind with story. just enjoy beautiful characters and their acting.

It's cute and fluffy.. Premise of the story is common..

I'll just make my review of this series short and simple.. There are pros and cons for this series.. For the pros, the acting is decent especially for the main couple.. personally, there were actors that were a bit stiff and awkward at some scenes but the show was still enjoyable.. The scenes that I mostly enjoyed though were from Pete and Ae and Tin and Can.. The story for this series is common because of the university setting and the typical shy guy falling for the charismatic guy trope for the main couple as well as the enemies trope for the other couple..

What bothered me the most though were the scenes of Pete and Ae. Yes, they're so cute and sweet but if only it were possible, they could've tone it down a bit. I admit that some of those scenes for me were cringy and cheesy..

Anyway, what I love about the series was that it tackled some of the important issues in the LGBT community.. Although the execution was not perfect, it was still a good start for the series. I'm happy that the series ended on a positive note, it's just that the ending could've been better..

In conclusion, the series is still a good watch - average level at best but props/cheers to the actors for portrating their characters..

Okay if youre looking for a show that has a happy ending this is for you. Howveverrrr i need season two to come out already!! thankyou
main couple pete/ae
-The actor that plays ae is so talented and i love the communication that they have. At first i was very very annoyed by their lack of communication but i made it through. Glad their story ended happily but i thought ending the season with them on a phone was lamee
Next couple tin/can
As a non-novel reader i can see their appeal. One is a hurt rich kid who hates everyone and schemes to get his way, but the other is a honest idiot who just tries to do whats right honestly love them cant wait to watch them fix things

One of only a few perfect BL's for me. The story is a very cute boy meets boy and they fall in love tale. There is something nice about a BL being free of the usual gimmick of friends who have a one-night stand or enemies to lovers trope. Ae is a great and unique protagonist as he's rough and tough but he is completely soft towards Pete. He does not try to deny his feelings towards Pete as is the usual method for BL characters. Pete is also a rare character as begins the drama with his sexuality established. It is nice to watch a BL where the main story is a couple falling in love naturally and not drag because of unnecessary drama but because of real life insecurities and doubts.
Pros: The stories for each character are so well thought out.
Cons: Too many couples were presented to give a satisfactory ending to each and unfortunately, behind the scenes drama means we may never get one.

Love love love this series! I must say its one of my top fav BLs ive watched! AePete's story was so adorable and their chemistry was amazing. The kissing scene was filled with passion and wasnt awkward at all despite them both being so young.

Perth left such an impression because I found out he was only 17 when he landed the role. Wow that boy is definitely going places!

Above everything I love how Ae was so supportive of Pete despite him being lgbtq+. They were so sweet and loveable in the series the only disappointment maybe that I heard they arent really talking to each other outside the series anymore? :(

I've literally recommended this series to everyone I know and all of them loved it!

me lo ricordavo meglio

allora, grazie al mio ritrovato amore per Perth (che qui è praticamente un feto rispetto a dangerous romance e never let me go) ho deciso di rivedere questo titolo e poichè non avevo mai visto il secondo (e TT che a livello tecnico sarebbero collegati), ho deciso di di fare un rewatch di Love by chance 1 e poi di passare a tutti i titoli che non ho visto. ora, lo ricordavo meglio, molto meglio. e l’8 che è un voto affettivo, il voto reale sarebbe forse 7, perché è stato il primo BL (ancora quando i più non sapevano nemmeno cosa fossero) che ho visto settimanalmente e quindi questo suo fascino mi è rimasto, mi è rimasta ancora la sensazione di aspettare con ansia la settimana per il nuovo BL, per questo gli regalo un bell’8, ma la sostanza è calata. punto primo, i BL di qualche anno fa, non sono i BL di ora, quindi uno direbbe che alcune scene sono”invecchiate male” (prima di tutto quella cosa al limite del legale con Kengla e Tecno) per passare a Tin (con la sua poco velata omofobia iniziale) e avanti… punto secondo si vede che molti di questi attori erano all’inizio della carriera perché hanno creato alcuni dei personaggi più irritanti e terribili della storia del BL. punto terzo, ci si ripresenta un clicè tipico di quegli anni: la sorella di una personaggio che innamorata pazza dei BL fa casino e rompe. c’era in Why are you e avevo convenentemente dimenticato ci fosse ance qui. che personaggio irritante. bene, fatta questa introduzione vorrei parlare un po’ di una cosa che ho notato: quando ho fatto la recensione di Cutie Pie ho detto che era già la seconda volta che vedevo un prodotto di Zee e che non mi piaceva la sua interpretazione (il primo proprio Why are you) e nella recensione di ViceVersa avevo detto che stavo rivalutando Perth, ecco, ho scoperto che il problema con Perth, non era Perth, ma Saint che forse, a quanto pare sarà anche il problema in Why are you, assieme comunque a Zee. bene, tolto questo torniamo un momento su una bandiera rosso sangue: Kengla. allora Kengla è un mostro e assieme a Tecnic fanno una di quelle accoppiate che trovi solo nei peggio thriller, però boys se mi piace Mark come attore (e visto che amo le bandiere rosse, anche Kengla), ho visto molto di suo e quella sua faccetta da volte, quel suo sorrisetto angelico, ma che nasconde una bestia di satana dietro è veramente apprezzato. solo un fatto, parlando di uno degli “elephant in the room” la scena nell’ultima puntata: allora, ai tempi che furono io avevo anche letto alcune parti delle novel e mi pareva molto più volenteroso di esprimersi No rispetto a come è fatto nel drama. poi ogni uno colga le sue conclusioni su quella scena, io la butto solo lì. Tin e Can sono onesta, mi piacevano di più quando li ho visti la prima volta. e gli ultimi due… ve beh, Title mi inquieta un pelettino in tutte le cose che fa, mentre Earth è un po’ come Gun dove lo metti, riesce sempre a dare belle interpretazioni. poi ci si aggiunge caldamente un Earth selvatico che compare, fa Type e scompare e abbiamo raggiunto la nostra storia… ora se lo si vuole vedere da farsi con ampie vedute, anche perché è comunque una pseudo pietra cardine del genere

Pretty Good! I recommend :)

PLOT: I noticed there were a lot of bad reviews for this series that almost made me not want to watch it. But I am happy I gave it a chance as it was pretty heartwarming and super cute. The plot was a little fast-paced in terms of the protagonists falling in love with each other but it calmed down through the first few episodes.

ACTING: Personally I really liked Perth who played 'Ae' in the series, as his acting was really good and he stole the spotlight in the series. Even though physically he wasn't suited for the character he still portrayed the role perfectly possessing gentle, dominant, jealous, and possessive sides to him. He made sure to act it all out well. I also liked the acting of Mean who played 'Tin'. He also portrayed his role perfectly with his fear of trusting people and snobbish character. I thought that Saint who played the character of 'Pete' was perfect physically for the role but his acting needs to grow as I felt I was watching a robot for there were no emotions portrayed from him. But he was super cute :)

CHEMISTRY: The protagonists' chemistry was really good they were able to act out as cute lovers without any hints of awkwardness between them and this includes the second couple as well.

I think you should go for it. The couples' love story is worth watching so if you like a story as sweet as sugar this is the one for you:)

Deux tiers vraiment sympas, un tiers franchement nul

J'ai bien aimé l'histoire des deux couples principaux Pete/Ae et Tin/Can. Pour les deux autres couples BL, c'était carrément inutile surtout si l'on considère le temps que le drama leur consacre et d'autres aspects problématiques de leurs histoires. Quant à celle qui concerne Pond / AimCham, elle était anecdotique et dispensable, mais elle ne m'a pas dérangée car c'était plutôt mignon.

Commençons par l'histoire principale. Pete est un étudiant fortuné mais très timide et coincé, victime de menaces et de chantage de la part d'un camarade car il est gay et craint que sa mère l'apprenne. Un autre étudiant, Ae, le percute en vélo et les deux jeunes hommes vont finir par tomber amoureux. J'ai trouvé leur couple agréable et intéressant, on a beaucoup de moments mignons et pas mal de bisous entre eux, et ce qui est vraiment appréciable (comme d'autres l'ont déjà précisé dans des commentaires), les quiproquos ne durent jamais plus d'une minute car ils se parlent et ça leur permet de régler les problèmes, Ae étant un gars direct qui n'aime pas que les choses restent en suspens. Maintenant, j'ai quand même relevé certaines choses un peu plus dérangeantes. Déjà d'après sa fiche, j'ai calculé que l'acteur qui joue Ae devait avoir 16 ans au moment du tournage alors que son personnage est censé être étudiant, et ça se voit à l'écran. Alors il est très mignon, il joue bien, (même mieux que celui qui interprète Pete à mon avis mais c'est personnel) et son personnage a un caractère plutôt affirmé donc ça lui confère une certaine maturité quand même, mais l'écart d'âge que j'ai ressenti devant certaines scènes avec son partenaire plus âgé m'a parfois mise un peu mal à l'aise. Ensuite, il a beau être tout love et protecteur avec Pete, il lui arrive parfois d'avoir un comportement un peu trop possessif et dominant. Heureusement cela n'arrive pas souvent, la plupart du temps il est adorable donc on évite de glisser vers une histoire toxique mais j'avoue que depuis ce que j'appelle ma prise de conscience féministe, j'ai du mal avec certains agissements et je les repère tout de suite dans les fictions. Concernant Pete, également, j'ai trouvé que son personnage, comme d'autres l'ont dit avant moi, était bien trop neuneu, docile, hésitant, limite faiblard, pour être réaliste. Du coup les hésitations, les silences et les regards craintifs de l'acteur semblaient faux et m'ont donné l'impression que son jeu n'était pas très bon. Mais il reste un personnage attachant et on a envie qu'il ait une fin heureuse, c'est déjà ça, mais il est vrai que le jeu de l'acteur ne m'avait déjà pas tellement convaincue dans Why R U donc j'ai du mal à tout mettre sur le dos du rôle qu'il est censé jouer. Enfin, l'histoire de l'antagoniste qui harcèle et violente Pete n'est pas résolue à la fin, ou alors j'ai loupé un épisode, donc pourquoi nous tartiner tout un bla-bla sur l'enquête que Pete demande à son ami Tin de faire à son sujet, si c'est pour qu'au final il n'exploite pas les informations obtenues ? C'est du temps gâché qui aurait mieux servi s'ils avaient consacré plus de scènes au couple Tin / Can (ou aux autres couples, puisqu'il fallait absolument qu'ils nous pondent 5 romances, autant les développer même si les autres ne m'ont pas satisfaite).

Concernant le couple Tin/Can, je dois avouer que j'ai regardé Love By Chance surtout pour eux car j'aime beaucoup le thème "enemies to lovers", et leur histoire ne m'a pas déçue. Tin est un ami de Pete, très arrogant, très riche et très hautain. Il est persuadé que l'amour vrai et la confiance ne sont que des leurres, d'où son attitude méprisante envers tout le monde, et j'ai adoré voir sa carapace se fissurer au contact de Can, ce petit "singe" qui ne cesse de lui rentrer dans le lard. Je sais que leur romance reste en suspens à la fin de la première saison et qu'une deuxième est censée leur être consacrée, mais si j'avais regardé Love By Chance à sa sortie et non pas maintenant que la 2ème saison est terminée, je n'aurais sans doute pas été aussi positive sur leur histoire parce qu'une des conditions essentielles pour moi avant de commencer un drama, c'est la certitude qu'il y a une fin heureuse. Il est donc possible que je me farcisse la deuxième saison bientôt, même si les commentaires sont en moyenne plus négatifs. On verra bien.

Comme je l'ai dit précédemment, l'histoire de Pond, le colocataire accro au porno de Ae, et AimCham, une étudiante qui est également serveuse au café, est très anecdotique et très peu de temps leur est consacré, mais c'était plutôt agréable de voir ce gars qui ne prend jamais la vie au sérieux, se montrer plus impliqué pour une personne qu'il estime en valoir la peine. On n'apprend pas grand chose d'elle en revanche, son personnage n'est pas du tout développé, on sait juste qu'elle a suffisamment de caractère pour le remettre à sa place quand il le faut, mais au moins elle n'est ni stéréotypée ni evil bitch, ce qui est plutôt une exception dans les BL Thai, les personnages féminins étant souvent ridicules et/ou antipathiques (bon on a bien la soeur de Can qui est une fujoshi un peu caricaturale à certains moments, mais ça reste light donc on ne va pas en faire un fromage).

Passons maintenant aux deux derniers couples qui, à mon sens, n'avaient pas leur place dans ce drama. Je comprends qu'ils ont adapté un bouquin, mais bon sang, aucune loi n'oblige les scénaristes à adapter strictement un roman, non ? La preuve, il semble y avoir pas mal de différences entre le livre Manner Of Death et la série, donc pourquoi venir nous emm...er avec des âneries sur deux autres couples aussi mal exploités quand ils auraient pu consacrer plus de temps aux autres histoires (ou pondre moins d'épisodes, 12 auraient suffi et ça aurait coûté moins cher) ? D'un côté on a un lycéen crétin (Kengkla) qui passe son temps à négocier avec son pote pour avoir enfin l'occasion de se taper le frère aîné de ce dernier (Techno), on ne les voit jamais ensemble car il s'agit essentiellement d'une obsession de la part de Kengkla, et pof, dans le dernier épisode, on a Techno qui rentre bourré, finit par erreur dans le lit du crétin qui dormait sur place et ce dernier en profite pour abuser de lui sans qu'il y ait de consentement éclairé... Et au réveil, il ose encore prendre l'air timide et manipuler Techno pour lui faire croire que c'est celui-ci qui lui a sauté dessus ? Si encore ils avaient eu ces scènes-là au début du drama et que la suite de l'histoire nous avait montré comment une relation pouvait se construire avec un démarrage aussi toxique, à la rigueur pourquoi pas, mais là niet, zéro évolution, le drama s'arrête là pour eux... Complètement idiot et malsain. Surtout qu'on nous présente en parallèle un jeune homme (Tar) traumatisé à la suite d'un viol qui a de terribles conséquences sur sa confiance future dans les relations amoureuses et le contact physique qui le répugne, donc c'est vraiment mal géré.

Alors l'histoire de Tar et de Tum (son demi-frère ? Son frère par alliance ? J'ai pas vraiment compris mais qu'importe...) est certes touchante, mais là encore très dispensable. Déjà pour tout comprendre de son histoire il faut avoir suivi le drama TharnType, qui se situe dans le même univers et qui possède certains personnages en commun, d'autant que Tar est assez important dans TharnType. J'ai mis un certain temps à comprendre que le "Type" de LBC était le même individu que dans TharnType (ce n'est pas le même acteur en plus), et pour en rajouter une couche dans le grand n'importe quoi, Tharn n'est même pas présent dans LBC alors que c'est l'ex petit ami de Tar avant d'être en couple avec Type, donc un peu dur de capter la dynamique de ces personnages au début... Quant à ceux qui n'auront pas vu TharnType au préalable, ils seront tout simplement largués, c'est dit. Donc, vraiment inutile de nous polluer avec leur histoire qui n'apporte franchement rien de plus au schmilblik (à moins qu'ils aient absolument tenu à caser une bonne partie des stars de leur écurie en même temps, m'enfin quand on voit le résultat ils auraient mieux fait de s'abstenir). Je n'ai rien contre les couples multiples dans les dramas, le problème c'est qu'un couple secondaire est bien suffisant pour contenter les fans. Au-delà, ils ont souvent du mal à gérer le tout (on voit ce que ça a donné avec Gen Y...) et les couples "accessoires" sont en général très mal gérés au vu du temps d'écran qui leur est consacré, quand ce n'est pas carrément expédié avant qu'on n'ait compris quoi que ce soit...

J'ai l'air très négative mais j'ai quand même passé un très bon moment avec les deux couples principaux Pete/Ae et Tin/Can, c'est d'ailleurs pour ça que ma note atteint 7.5. D'ordinaire je souffle d'impatience pendant de nombreuses scènes entre les protagonistes parce qu'on a souvent beaucoup de longueurs ou d'hésitations inutiles dans les dramas Thai, là je ne me suis jamais ennuyée avec eux donc c'est assez rare pour que je le note. Si les deux derniers couples n'étaient pas venus parasiter mon plaisir, ma note aurait été nettement plus élevée.

En conclusion, ne boudez pas votre plaisir, mais n'hésitez pas à appuyer sur "avance rapide" quand l'histoire s'écarte des couples principaux.

Majorly triggering elements used as tropes

Just a little note before you start reading this lengthy rant:
This review is written for the purpose of explaining why I seem to rate it so low when other people have rated it so high. There are major spoilers as I explain plot points into detail and why exactly I hated them so much.
Do not read this if you haven't watched the drama yet, you should still make your own opinion of it beforehand. Then, if you want, you can read this.
Whether or not you agree with me, I will be happy to politely discuss and debate the series with you.
Thank you.

Trigger warning: cens*red mentions of g*ng/male r*pe.

I have debated writing this review for a while now but decided to just go for it in the end because it's just on my mind all the time and I just want to move on for good.

So, where do I even start with it? I'll explain my rating in a few points below. Some little bits addressed in those points can deduct 0.5pt while the major ones deducted up to 2pts.

1. Way too many characters.

If the drama was going to address the relationship of so many different characters, why make it only 14 episodes? Even better: if the show was only going to be 14 episodes long, then why telling the story of so many characters? Plus the final episode, though very lengthy compared to the previous 13, hardly gives any closure to any pairings at all.
Sure, Tin and Can have their own season (which, I've heard, is terrible), and TharnType have their own series (which I was enjoying until about episode 3 for the same reason as my third point), but the others just felt rushed to me. Even Pete and Ae who just... live happily ever after? I was honestly hoping to see more drama happening between those two, especially since they're presented as the 'main pairing' from the trailer and plot summary.
Also I kinda wanted to see more of Pond and Cha-Am. Just because it's BL doesn't mean straights don't exist anymore.

Which can bring me to my next point. The next two points, actually, as they are slightly linked together.

2. The triggers.
3. Using those as tropes.

— Incest. Saying they're half-brothers right at the end of the show doesn't suddenly make it okay. To all people without siblings, it's time to put it in the bin-cest please!

— G*ng r*pe. And using male r*pe as a trop in many, many BL drama (I see you, fanfics, in any fandom). Here's a quick disclaimer for you: it's NOT okay. Yes, it's a very traumatic experience, and it shapes the character and gives reason for his behaviour towards his older brother and his fear of falling in love, but the reason it was explained in the drama just made it feel like a trope, which I don't find okay. And again, with all the other characters to focus on, it didn't really make me empathise with him at all.
Sure, I cried when he finally confessed it to his brother, because, as I said, it is an extremely traumatic experience and no one ever should have to go through that. But the comforting period was just way too short in my opinion. They could have made it so much better. If you want to make your characters suffer to make the viewers cry in horror and shock, at least develop the aftermath a little more.
Instead he just went back to France after a little hug and that's it. What was even the point of making him come back to Thailand? It was okay just seeing the two brothers chat online.
Earth's performance was top notch though, as usual. (No, I am not biased...)

— Taking advantage of a drunk guy and then playing the victim card. Ah, yes, maybe my favourite of the lot. Raise your hand if you can't stand Kangkla! From the minute he was introduced to the show, he was just forgettable. I never bothered to remember his name (I had to look at the cast list to get it in my review) and his character in general is just... nope. I hated him just that much more whenever he was on-screen.
And Technic is just as bad, helping his friend make a move on his brother without seeming bothered. Then there's Techno. Sweet, uuhh, stupid? Yes, he's an airhead (so much better in TharnType) who agrees to be the boyfriend of the guy who practically assaulted him! Kangkla had the nerve to blame No afterwards to get what he wanted. That, everyone, is the definition of a toxic relationship.

4. The shippers. Also, Shampoo (sorry not sorry about that).
Why. Are. They. So. Hardcore! In nearly all Thai BL Drama I've watched, there will be fangirls who love shipping two good-looking guys together. And, coincidentally, those guys either end up together or are at least interested in other guys. I am generally uncomfortable when real people are shipped together (isn't enjoying the bromance enough?) so when Lay asked her brother for pictures of Tin and Pete together because they were her OTP, I got fed up with her. Pity, because I really enjoyed her character until then. And Can said nothing about that!
Chompoo refers to herself in 3rd person, and others might have found that cute. So did I the first few times. And then she was just there. Saying she loved Ae because he helped her get her bag. Kept being clueless about how little she meant to him. And then she just disappeared. We never heard of her again. Poof, gone as soon as Pete and Ae officially get together. Bye-bye, good riddance, you won't be missed. Wait, who were you again? Forgettable.

Speaking of disappearances, that brings me to my fifth and final point.

5. Trump. No, not the former president.
I thought he would be the bad guy throughout the series. Like, he wouldn't just go away after being punched a few times and then getting a little bit of money from his victim. Instead he was just there to create a little drama in the first two episodes before noping away. I get why he had to, as explained in the show, but he could have been showed more, especially in the last episode. What happened to him? Did he get caught and is in jail? Or did the people he owed money to get him first and beat him up or worse? He was just a bad character written very badly. Also he made it a point to bother only Pete while there are so many other rich kids in that school, as stated several times by Tin.

I guess I could mention a few minor points while I'm at it.

a) Stopping in front of the camera to show your sad or conflicted little face, only to say nothing and going away anyway. I get that it's done for cinematic and drama effect, but it's just unrealistic and annoying when done so many times for so long.

b) Saying all your thoughts out loud. Voice-overs are okay and used in other dramas. Why not do it there, too?

c) I've already mentioned the straights but let me do it again here: they are okay. We promise no one is going to hate them, we are a more open-minded society, heterophobes won't be too much of a problem.

I have mentioned TharnType a few times as well, but I don't think I actually like it, either. Not after episode 3, as said earlier. Let me briefly explain here. If you don't want to read about them you can just skip this section, since the review is not originally for this drama.

(Also note that this doesn't count towards the rating of LBC. This is just pure ranting about something I thought I would enjoy given how much people talk about it and how well they rate it.)

Triggers. Again. And done badly, too.

It is explained in the first episode that Type hates gays. It is also said in the first episode that Tharn is gay. Later on, you learn the reason for Type's way of thinking (he suffered abuse from a man when he was a child) and it makes sense. Then, of course, since the series is called TharnType, you kinda know they get together eventually.

But not this early, and not this way.

Wanting to overcome a trauma is one thing. Facing it by just going for it is another. Wanting to repay a debt is something else entirely. Look at Tar: he still has philophobia at the end of LBC, he doesn't suddenly overcome his trauma by hugging his brother twice.

Type, on the other hand, seems to completely forget that when he initiates the relationship (because yes, he's the one who said he wanted to have s*x with Tharn out of the blue). The first time, I let it slide, because he was still nervous, and the situation was obviously different than when he was a kid. But then they did it again? Like, Type said they'd only do it once and then he asks for it again? It doesn't make any sense at all.

The slow-burn was going well in the beginning, when Tharn got too close to Type and he freaked out when he was touched. That is an expected reaction from someone who suffered from a traumatic experience. I was expecting them to take things super slowly, and for Tharn to teach Type that it was okay to touch, that not all gays were the same and that he was supposed to be at ease and feel good from it.

Nope. Not at all. Not only do they go at it as early as episode 3, but they go at it again in the next episode and it's just completely unrealistic. Healing from a trauma takes years, and even though it must have been at least 10 years, Type was obviously not over it judging from his reaction towards Tharn's touch and his hatred towards gay men.

I might give it a second chance later, hoping it improves, but I have very little expectations for that. And I want to focus on other series I started a little while ago, as I'm really enjoying them so far.

Story : The beginning of watching this series feels good, they built the story well, but somehow the next episode (Pete and Ae section) is no longer interesting! Unattractive, because they offer fansservice too much more than the story ! A few days ago the LBC director said: 'The series was made so that peoples have a positive mindset about LGBT!' But I don't feel like that! This series is like a porn series! How do they want to change people's mindsets with scenes like that ?! You must see comments on social media! They made comments like 'Want to have sex with Pete or Ae and other pornographic comments', after watching this series. This series does not teach a positive mindset towards LGBT, but teaches free sex among young people!!!

Acting/Cast : Their acting is good even though it's a bit stiff

Music : Their music is like Make it Right the series! Are their teams the same? Looks similar

Rewatch Value : Nope

This is by far one of the BEST BLs I have ever seen. The talent, the storyline, the director, the music and most importantly the attention to detail. The first episode was amazing and I fell in love with AE & Pete and then Perth and Saint. The biggest complaint I have read or heard is there is no Season 2 but no one thought Love Sick would have a Season 3 or 2 Moons would return. I have not given up and I will be there when it returns. My hope is that everyone involved find great jobs because their introduction was amazing. I appreciate the effort that P New went through to get Season I made and I ask that he doesn't give up on Season II. I know all of you have wonderful things in you future. To Perth and Saint remain friends and work together. You have great chemistry and we would like to see you together again. One more thing, "Life does not over give us happy endings even though we want them desperately. It is not always about the destiny but I can honestly say I have enjoyed the JOURNEY." Thank You
