My School President (2022)

so far the best BL ever

Right now it’s currently on ep 4 and it’s been amazing. I thought that it would be one of those slow burn high school romance just like any other but it is so much more. The actors have so much chemistry for their first role together and the plot is so easy going and lovely. Definitely one of those heart warming butter melting kinda of show. If you like Bad Buddy, The eclipse and 2gether this is for you but without the angst (for now). it has the enemies to lovers, the slowburn, the first love and all the best cliches fit into one. Definetly going to be my comfort BL

Bad start, bad ending

To be honest, it was nothing in the name of plot just a normal school or coming of age series but bl felt like i have seen this plot a million times, just because the couple looked cute doesn't mean we should let a blind eye on the writing, i don't know i feel like i should give it another chance but other side of my heart is saying it was boring as f*ck. In every episode the same thing kept repeating nad repeating there was no progress it was like a 2 episode series was pulled in a 12 episode series. At first i thought that i don't like it because there are almost no kiss scenes but then i realized that even in a series with kiss scenes i fast-forwar them because i am too shy to see so that was not the case. I had watched this series in 2023 but just felt like giving a review now.

a whipped president and a brat musician in love

idk where to start the review 😭😂 i never knew a school based bl can be this good , like when u watch high school themed bls they come out as cringe as usual but something something my school president just made tooo much sense to me . like it's cliche how Tinn fell in love with gun in the first sight but it's not cringe and thats the best thing ever , like omg . Tinn's personality is soo pure and whipped boyish that i can't defend him at any point , gemini really did a great job in potraing the character , even fourth , as a rookie actor i expected alot from them and they are delivering it . from the cast to the dialogues to the acting and osts everything is just sooo good . my fav character is of Tiw , tinn's bff , he is helping alot and these kind of friends just uk are the best in life i love it . the music gang chinchillas they are just crackheads no words to describe them . soo adorable to look at , i am soo excited about how the story will keep moving forward 🥺 for sure this series is one of the most comforting serries after bad buddy ... I really want to see a pat pran cameo in this show especially after ep 3 . I just know it's going to be a blast . my love for tin and gun keeps growing every ep . thanks p'aoff for making this series 😭 i just can't help but express my feelings through this review, it's not even a review i just wanted to write it .

A good Thai highschool romance bl

Honestly this is coming from someone who typically don’t like Thai bl but I enjoyed the series so much. This isn’t a show with amazing new plot but a typical cliche highschool romcom that is done well. I love the humor in this, the exaggerated acting with a bit of cringe that romcoms have but not enough to deter you away. There is a simple plot and they sticked through it. I loved the beginning through the end which I felt alot of Thai bl failed to deliver as some would start of strong and end in a mess or there were no plot. There’s actual romance in the show , not bromance which is another plus.


My only criticism is having a second couple . They bore me and felt like they were a filler which made the show felt a little dragged on

Overall,
If you want a light hearted Thai bl, this is a show for you!

Oh so cute! Gotta love Gun!

This is going to be short and sweet....

If you are looking for something that has good acting, sweet, light heartness for the most part, (there were a couple not light hearted moments) funny and just all around adorablethen this is the one you want to watch. I wasn't sure if I was going to watch this, I thought it wouldn't be much, but I wanted to see how Fourth acted, (first series I watch of his) and wanted to hear him sing again. I love his voice :), so I stared watching. I am so glad I did!! I couldn't stop watching it.

So if you are like me and wasn't sure about watching this. Stop wondering and watch it!

If you haven't seen this yet, please do.

It's ironic that this is my headline because I am years late to the party. However, it's indeed a great piece and a must-watch! The last time I watched a Thai series was in 2021 because I lost interest, especially with the overwhelming amount of BL dramas being produced since then. This looks like your typical high school drama because of the premise and plot, but the script is well done, and they executed it very well. The pacing is perfect, and every second is worth watching. I am guilty of skipping scenes in other dramas because I can't bear them anymore, but I had no such problem with this series. I adored the songs, and I love the friendships. I can't find anything wrong with this drama—it's cute, simple, silly, heartfelt, and worth your time.

The main characters were so well-written, and the development of their relationship feels so natural. Perhaps it's because the main leads have so much chemistry and are great actors. When they simply stared at each other, it didn't feel forced like in other shows.

I have so much love for Tinn and Gun. I envy their healthy relationship so much, and I want what they have.

P.S. Fourth is a phenomenal actor—his eyes speak novels, his delivery of lines isn't awkward, and his smile is a different discussion, one I could write countless paragraphs about. I love him so much; I wish I could keep him in my pocket.

P.S. I can confidently say that this is my favorite GMMTV drama of all time. Considering how much I've seen, that speaks volumes

I have already watched this and rewatched it because I enjoyed it so much. It was my first series of 2024 that I watched/rewatched. The chemistry between Gemini and Fourth is what makes this series amazing. I never rewatch dramas, but My School President is the only drama that I rewatched in a while and I mainly rewatched it while waiting for My Love Mix Up. Their chemistry is amazing in this series and I would even watch it again sometime. I also love the fact that Satang and Ford also are casted in this series, after Gemini, Fourth, Satang and Ford have been friends for many years, it's special they got to be in this drama together. The series is quite musical and there is a lot of OST that came out of this series. I love a series which has a made up band and creates its own music, it gives a personalisation to the series rather than a generic OST.

Even though it may seem like a generic high school crush trope, it is much better than high school series that I have watched in the past and it is the series that made me love Gemini and Fourth, as individual actors and as a pairing. It is a very cute series and has inside jokes and sayings that only if you watch it you will understand - Sodium, Radium, Potassium. Very cute and already rewatched.

This is a show I procrastinated for a while before starting to watch it because I'm not a school crush enthusiast. However, it got me giggling and blushing throughout every single episode.
The acting is pretty good, and guntinn have an amazing chemistry - I like to think the actors themselves have a great connection in real life as well which made it possible.
I also love the message the whole show tried to convey about friendships, and it has one of the best OST I've ever witnessed.
I wish there was a second season because I honestly fell in love with My School President!

Leia Mais

Based off my personal rating criteria specifically made for BLs

1. Characters 9/10
+ Tinn-Gun pairing is actually mature and communicates way more than the actual adults in other shows
+ Tiw served as such a fantastic bestie and wingman
=> ultimately, the characters felt like they were real, lived beings who well fleshed out and each had their own quirks and personality traits

2. Shipability 10/10
+ Good tension was built with the one-sided enemies/love dynamics
+ Gemini-Fourth has fantastic chemistry
=> it felt like they completely captured the essence of what a good high school love is

3. Plot 8/10
- The Hot Wave goal felt a little contrived. I was ready to put the "no dating rule" behind by the pre-beach episode
- The acting & overly dramatic emotional beats of the ep 11 fight felt like it was created solely because of the "ep 11 curse" and for no real plot significance
=> while the romance itself was good, many of the story beats of conflict felt forced at times

Fluff Overload

I mean fluff overload in the best way possible. As someone who typically prefers more dark and serious series I didn't expect to love this show as much as I did. Just a pure high school love story. I enjoyed how they took the relationship slow and felt it was very realistic. Tinn has to be one of my favorite characters in any series I have watched, just a huge green flag and wish that I could have a partner like him. At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like the side couple (soundwin) but they became one of my favorite part of the series and would love to see these actors act with each other again because their chemistry was amazing and I love the classic enemies to lovers trope.

This has NO RIGHT to be SO GOOD OMG

Story: 10/10
The story is your basic romance flipped on it's head: we get to see why and how Tinn fell in love with Gun, as well as how he tries to pursue him with the help of the best wingman ever, Thiu (Tiw?). It's such a cute twist, explaining all of the things that TInn does without Gun knowing, often backfiring in Tinn's face, to be honest, and I love how whipped Tinn is. The way they present Gun going from hating Tinn to being okay with him to actually liking him is also super wholesome. Plus, the side couple romance? Ugh. I love literally everything about this. I just want to type "Go watch it NOW" without explaining anything, and it's killing me not to lmao

Acting/Casting: 10/10
This is Gemini and Fourth's first main roles, and one of their first major projects (with some debate over whether Moonlight Chicken was filmed before My School President, which I'm not getting into because I don't really care either way lol), and you can't tell AT ALL. Like. Gemini is somehow funny and serious at the same time, often switching seamlessly from his Student President air to the high school boy in love he is, and I just APPLAUD him! And Fourth! Fourth is just as good! The way I can tell what the character is going through based on his eyes!? Ugh. It reminded me of Perth (Ay in Love by Chance and Kanghan in Dangerous Love) and Nanon's (Pran in Bad Buddy) acting, and he's only, like, 18! I think he might have even been 17 at the time of recording, and I'm just impressed. His and Gemini's chemistry is also on-point. Honestly, they might scale right up to some of my top Thai actors.

Music: 10/10
I feel like I just keep putting 10/10 on everything, but I literally mean it! I added EVERY. SINGLE. SONG. to my playlist. ALL OF THEM. Gemini and Fourth's voices go together so well, and even some of the other characters voices just... *chef's kiss* Loved it~ Plus, the show has this cute little snippet sound tracks that are both funny and relevant to what's happening in the best way. Seriously, whoever was in charge of music with this series really outdid themselves.

Rewatch Value: 10/10
It's such a cute, heartwarming story that I can easily seeing it being a comfort show. I know for myself, personally, it's a show that I often fall asleep to or watch when I'm not feeling the best, because I literally get serotonin from how cute and funny it is.

Overall: 10/10
This rating really shouldn't surprise anyone because I don't think I've said a single negative thing about this show, but whatever. I know that, as a community, a lot of us are tired of school BLs, often in the mood for more mature storylines, but I think this was a school BL done right. The characters act and FEEL like high schoolers with their over-the-top dramatics and antics, and I think it's a great spin on a novel that wasn't nearly as cute or fluffy. Just.. go watch it. Right now lmao
