Blerg...
I dragged myself through this because I didn't have anything else to watch at the moment and I was really only interested in Mark/Poon.Pond (who is one of my faves) and Phuwin were TOTALLY wasted on this series. They proved they could act in Never Let Me Go and then they are forced to follow it up with this fluff?
Satang's character was so annoying and Winny who is actually a pretty good actor was just phoning this in. I think they were both majorly miss-cast.
However, I LOVE the new paring of Mark with Poon. I've always kinda loved Mark, since Bad Buddy he's been one of my favorite of the sort of "lesser" GMM actors. He's been a lead in a couple of series, but they were not the best scripts or more high profile series. I thought his chemistry with Pawin was pretty weak and when you compare it to his chemistry with Poon it's like night and day. The two of them together are magic. I was really just watching the series for their storyline. Thank goodness we FINALLY got a kiss from them at the very end and it was a really good one. I hope, hope, hope, they get a series of their own next year.
Also, 16 eps. was ridiculous. There was literally not plot or dramatic tension enough for 2 eps and they dragged it out to 16. I understand the purpose was to just be sweet and gentle, but gimme a break.

I didn’t expect to love it so much, mostly because I didn’t have any expectations going in.
Debating if I should give it 9 stars or 8,5!To be honest. I wanted to give a 8,5. But the story was evolving a little too slowly for my liking but they were so cute to have my heart melted.
It was a cute, easy and fluffy. I have to admit there was times I was giggling, all red, swinging my feet stupidly while watching.The only flaw (a personal flaw) was that the events happening slowly and yet it didn't stop me from enjoying this series.
I still cannot not talk about Phum - Peem's chemistry, because it was so beautifully captured that I felt their connection - their love. What starts off as a casual attraction slowly builds up into something so much more meaningful and desirable to both of them, in ways they could never have anticipated.
Q - Toey
Their banter was fresh and amusing and dare I say it, charming - their tender scenes just as emotional. It was almost poetic the way the Director wrote out their feelings and thoughts.
Tan - Khaofang
The way they comforted each other when they needed it so desperately, that fierce expressive and sticky they felt about one another, the cheerful way in which they acted upon their desire and want for each other - I ate those moments up.
Chain - Pun
Whether you'll love him or hate him, Chain was definitely my favorite. That cold yet assessing and loving demeanor suited my heart so well. Pun - my precious boy - let me protect you forever.
Romance aside, I loved this bl drama for the friendships and the vibes.
It may have not been quite what I was expecting, but what it delivered was more than enough to not only appease me, but make me eager for more.

Kinda disappointed but not surprised.
I wanna start off by saying my low rating isn't because of the actors. The cast was really amazing, but i felt like the storyline in this series is just non-existent 😭😭. I started watching it for pondphuwin but even with them, they kinda lost the chemistry somewhere. It just feels like once the couples became official, the whole plot disappears and it's all just about being lovey-dovey and nothing else. Also making chainpun real in the last episode is a BIG no from me. Idk if anyone else feels the same.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
I don’t know why the high rating
Honestly my rating is based on the main couple. The rest of the cast did as well as they could with the time they were given. I am disappointed with the main leads. I felt like Pond was carrying the Ship on this series and Phuwin presented like he was forced to be there and be intimate with Pond. I am not surprised that after this series all rumors started about their ship ending. Their chemistry felt so forced this series like what the heck happened? I think this one missed the mark and I hope PondPhu figure out how they want to move forward.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Doesnt have a good plot.We are 5.5/10, 3 for only really watched for pondphuwin but they became boring in last episode. Winnysatang was quite a boring couple to me they didnt add any excitement to the show. Aouboom was cute definitely cringy. Pond phuwing kissed about 3 times then when pond told everyone that he will make phuwin fall in love with him like what he must know he likes him after 3 kisses how tf not. Weird it's like they took a step back for no reason like they weren't basically for dating 4 eps bruh. Cheum was an annoying useless character used to strech out the show. chainpun was so boring not alot of chemistry, there relationship didn't develop until ep15 they suddenly started speeding it up as if they had any moments before chain was just being a good friend. Needed a better plot, This couple wasn't needed whats the point if they only matter in 2 eps barely as well. I even doubted if they were ment to be a couple or just random bromance to fill scenes
The show definitely had comedy mostly from aun which was funny.

An Ensemble Casting with a Good Storyline
“We Are” is a medley of romantic tropes and sappiness that is very welcome in the BL scene. It is the quintessential romcom, an easygoing series about a group of friends who find love and support each other throughout the process. “We Are” is refreshing and fun and even though it doesn’t give you any drama, the romance and friendship are enough to drive this 16-episode series, and the different couples give us a wide range of romantic tropes, there is no screen time wasted because all the stories develop at different paces, keeping us engaged from start to finish. As a big fan of slice of life shows with minimum conflict, “We are” was such a treat, and I hope there is more demand for such low stakes BLs in the midst of all the high drama, high production and educational ones.Read the complete article here-

A Heartwarming BL Series with Minimal to No Red Flags
This is one of the best portrayals of friendship in BL history. The support each character gives to one another is truly heartwarming, and the way they care for and help each other is beautiful.The red flags are minimal perhaps the smallest I've ever seen. Typically, BL series feature at least one major red flag, but in this series, I can't find any.
The story of a few couples might not be the best developed, but I can't say that it made anything worse. But all couples faced unique challenges in their relationships and overcame themin a good way.
Some series overdo the comedy, but this one was pretty balanced between serious, heartwarming, funny, and blatantly silly moments.
Overall, I consider this one of the better series of the year. It's lighthearted, fun, and heartwarming, without being over the top in any aspect.

We are...
Not good at writing a good series. Seriously when you're side couples are more interesting than your main couple it a serious red flag and I wish I would have dropped it at episode 3 but by episode 10 I was hopefully something would happen and it never did. Episodes 15 & 16 were basically just them on group vacations. Thank goodness I could speed this up so it was only 30min and honestly I think I skipped an episode and missed nothing to do with the nonexistent plot. What is going on with all these shows that look good before it's out and then 3 episodes in you can't even remember why you wanted to watch it. We need quality not quantity shows. I'll wait 3-6 months for a good show but this crap isn't it.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Quatro casais e muita serotonina
São 16 episódios de pura serotonina e é quase impossível não sorrir com os casais.A GMM veio com essa proposta de fazer acontecer 4 casais, todos com dinâmicas diferentes, e com mais eps do que o normal. Deu certo? Posso dizer que sim. Mas... ela falhou em saber dividir o tempo de tela, como sempre.
Os PhumPeen são os protagonistas, e isso não tem dúvida. Amo as cenas deles, e ainda não entendo porque estão criticando tanto os beijos do Phuwin. Sou a maior defensora do plot enemies to lovers saudável, porém a história deles teve uma enrolação que não era NADA necessária.
Os QToey foram feitos pra serem os fofinhos, e eles realmente eram. Entregaram cena emocional, e os WinnySatang foram ótimos em tela. Os beijos poderiam ser melhores, mas entendo toda essa questão de dar uma imagem inocente a eles. Mas posso dizer que a infantilização do Toey era exagerada demais, e em todas as cenas de casal pareciam que eles faziam as mesmas coisas, um cafuné na cabeça e um correndo atras do outro. Outra coisa foi sobre a assexualidade do Toey que foi abordada na novel, e seria muito interessante se fosse desenvolvida na série também.
Os TanFang não tenho nem palavras. PERFEITOS! No começo eu nem me ligava muito neles, e do nada eles começaram o relacionamento e eu fiquei ???. Mas eles foram me conquistando tanto, que o que me restou no final foi pedir mais cenas deles juntos. A dinâmica deles íncrivel, eu conseguia sentir o amor do Fang mesmo ele fingindo que não era brega que nem o Tan. Beijos incriveis e ouso dizer que os melhores da série. Obrigada AouBoom por tudo!
E por último, os ChainPun que foram os mais esquecidos do churrasco. Queria falar muito deles aqui, mas não tivemos muitas cenas e me pergunto se isso aconteceu por causa da mudança de elenco. Foram mal desenvolvidos o BL todo, mas shippei facilmente. Eles no último episódio fizeram We Are ser mais icônica ainda. O ponto é, seriam ótimos friends to lovers se tivessem tempo de tela pra isso, e odeio como fizeram eles namorarem na pressa.
Além desse tempo de tela totslmente desigual, outro ponto negativo foram os erros de continuidade em algumas cenas, que não faziam sentido algum pro desenvolvimento do casal. As vezes algo de importante acontecia em um dia, e no outro parecia que nada tinha acontecido.
Um ponto positivo que gostei muito foi a naturalidade em cenas de afeto, muitos beijinhos, mãos dadas e eles sem nenhuma vergonha de amar o parceiro, e isso é bem raro em séries tailandesas.
Concluindo, We Are é um BL reconfortante, feito pra rir, shippar e sorrir muito com o romance. É um entretenimento perfeito pra quem não quer se estressar, só relaxar e assistir uma série tranquila.

Navigating Youth and Friendship
The series centers on a group of friends navigating young adulthood, exploring themes of friendship, love, and personal growth.Chemistry Between the Actors:
A standout aspect is the palpable chemistry between its lead actors, especially PondPhuwin, WinnySatang and AouBoom. Their on-screen dynamics are electric, bringing realism and depth to their characters’ relationship. From the first episode, they captivate with their natural rapport and effortless synergy. Whether sharing heartfelt moments or engaging in playful banter, their chemistry enhances every scene.
Character Development and Interactions:
They convincingly portray the journey from initial acquaintance to deep emotional connection, making each phase feel authentic and well-earned. Their scenes together are highlighting the strength of their bond and providing a solid emotional core for the audience to see.
Criticisms:
Despite its strengths, “We Are The Series” has notable flaws. At 16 episodes, the series feels unnecessarily prolonged, with too much filler content and insufficient plot and conflict. A tighter narrative spread across 10 to 12 episodes would have made for a more cohesive and engaging story. Additionally, the direction is inconsistent, with some episodes lacking cohesion and fluidity, which can be jarring and detract from the viewing experience. The series also suffers from plot holes that can be distracting, leaving unanswered questions and unresolved subplots. Rush editing leads to abrupt transitions, disrupting the narrative flow and diminishing the emotional impact of key moments.
Impact on the Series:
Despite these criticisms, the series remains highly watchable (proven with continuously becoming #1 X trending) and emotionally engaging, largely due to the cast’s strength and chemistry. Their performances add authenticity and depth, making the emotional highs and lows more impactful. This connection enriches their characters and enhances the overall ensemble dynamic.
Conclusion:
While the series faces challenges with its episode length, inconsistent direction, plot holes, and rush editing, its portrayal of on screen couples relationships and the vibrant, nostalgic depiction of university life make it a standout. This series will resonate with anyone who fondly remembers their own university days, filled with the ups and downs of young adulthood.
