I have very mixed feelings about this series.
From the beginning I knew the humor of the series will be too cringy for me, but I was ready to put up with it, because I really liked the plot at first.
I instantly fell in love with Zee and I already knew from Love by chance that Saint is good actor, so I was on board with Fighter/Tutor couple. They worked well with Fighters confused emotions and it made the storyline very delightful to watch.
On the other hand I didn't really feel the Saifah/Zon couple. I felt like Fighter/Tutor really outshined them with their chemistry and more interesting plot.
Till the episode 6 I was thinking that this may be one of my top BLs, but boy, was I wrong. After that the things started to go downhill. Everything got really messy and it felt rather draggy. I started to feel the urge to watch it at 2x speed and most of the time that is my red flag.
Nevertheless, I decided that I'm strong and I will watch this till the end. Ooof, but they really do know how to test my patience.

I feel like they were trying too hard to please the viewers and because of the large amount of those "fluffy" moments the storyline was really dull. They lost the balance between cute, repetitive moments and clever, naturally flowing storyline.

After episode 6 I partly lost interest in Fighter/Tutor, because it started to feel kinda forced and kinda cringy (and not in the cute way). So to my surprise Saifah/Zon creeped into my heart and became my WHY R U no. 1 couple. But then Coronavirus just casually said: ,,Nah, girl, you don't deserve this, Imma just take them from u real quick, bye."

Episode 9 really brought up the worst in me. I know that it was partly because of the pandemics, but they were really unprepared for unexpected situations. I get that they tried to get the popularity and stable fanbase by airing the series earlier then the others, but they weren't ready at all. I was thinking that I have to be nicer, because they were having issues and it's not their fault, but why is it that other BLs airing at the same time do not have such problems as WHY R U?
Okay, back to the breaking point. Ep 9 was really just montage of someones cheesy trip without any story progress whatsoever.
I was like ,,okay, I can take this. They will redeem themselves in the next episodes." But guess what? Episode 10 was even more storyless beach montage. So that is about 3 hours of beach content if I also count the last episode (but I forgive them, because in the last episode there was atleast Saifah/Zon). So my question is: did I watch thai BL or travel agency ad? Like I'm genuinely not sure at this point.

Also they made the hot and heavy scenes really repetitive. In other BLs I'm most of the time wishing for more passionate scenes, in WHY R U I was thinking if they ever do something else. Like could you stop for a moment, you rabbits???

And what was this evil korean mother bribing twist that Fighters father pulled off?!

The way this series is handling every problem feels very forced and unrealistic. I don't like how they force a problem to occur and then force it even more for it to quickly disappear. I mean don't even create obstacles at all if you cannot even execute them properly. It's really stressing me out how easily HwaHwa or Fighters dad change their minds just for the sake of the happy ending without any obstacles for the main couple.

The actors had overall great chemistry, the acting was also alright and they made it somewhat watchable.
I don't know what to say about the plot. They had some interesting ideas, but executed them terribly. Also in the half of the series the storyline is completely nonexistent. It's like every episode is the filler episode (with a few exceptions).

It surely isn't the best series I've seen, but it also isn't the worst. Had potential, but didn't fully used it, rather wasted it.

This drama is nothing groundbreaking. The story itself is very basic, but sometimes has enjoyable funny bits. I liked Oreo(Pop), because he was cute and had the biggest amount of those enjoyable funny bits. Also I was glad that Aim (Mo) redemeed herself as a girlfriend after watching her in Together with me. Because Plern Pleng really is it's own term in BL community.
On the other hand what was my biggest pet peeve and actually almost made me drop the drama was the character of Strong (Oat). Not only he was getting on my nerves by being annoying, my eye was twitching every time he was on screen and I really didn't get why he's doing the things he do most of the time, I also didn't like his acting. I think this is the only series where I hated one of the mains this much. I don't even exactly know why to this degree, but I just did.

Rambo/Pree couple was really hyped, but I think I didn't get it. Rambo made my blood boil even more than Oat and Pree would be better off with Pop (just like Pop would be better off with Pree and Rambo and Oat then can get together and copliment each others stupidity ). Frankly I didn't really know why everyone praised Mew (Pree) so much, but after watching TharnType I got it and I'm also on board (even tho I like Gulf even more).

I'm not really sure what more is there to say. The story is kinda enjoyable the moment you're watching it, but after you're done, you quickly forget it. If you skip it, you don't really miss too much, but it's okay as time killer when you're bored.

This was my first BL series, so it holds a sentimental value to me. I was lured by TinCan couple as many people before me and was little disappointed when I learnt that this couple was developed rather late in the story. But we're getting season 2 with them as main couple so yaaay, I guess.
The story overall was okay, nothing lifechanging, but cute. Looking back I'm really glad that they didn't go with the typical BL trope - short bottom/tall top. It added new dimension to the story, which is nice. Perth (Ae) was awesome, I really liked his character, but Saint(Pete) was sometimes annoying. Together they had nice dynamics. I wasn't really smitten by them, but enjoyed their cute scenes.
As for the Kengla/Techno couple, I didn't actually care about them too much. Techno was getting on my nerves most of the time and Kengla was a creep.
The Tar/Tum relationship was kinda confusing (mainly because I was confused about Tharns and Types roles in all this mess around Tar, because I didn't read the novel and in the series it was executed rather chaotic) and too melodramatic for me, but I understood it better after watching TharnType the series.
The highlight of this whole piece was TinCan (yes, I'm totally biased). I was destroyed by the ending and actually watched their parts numerous times.

Also I feel like studio Wabi Sabi has this pattern for main couples to be mature, without the confusion mess (I like you, I don't like you, What do I even want?), because in both Love by chance and UWMA the main couples didn't fight with the idea of being gays. On the other hand they throw all this mess on the side couples, which sometimes make them too much to handle(TechnoKengla) and sometimes the best and most interesting part of the series (TinCan, TeamWin - cause let's be honest, I loved them more then the main couples). So I'm kinda scared that for season 2 they'll mess my TinCan ship because of this pattern and basically erase the interesting, messy side of them, if you understand what I mean.

Overall, I liked it, it was my invitation to BL world and for that I'm grateful.

Yeah and I loved Pond.

Sometimes I forgot this is the real story and not a parody

The key is to watch this without high expectations and just see it for what it is. Comparing this to Love by chance or UWMA is absolutely out of question, even though it's the same production. Clearly the production budget wasn't high, since they're more likely to invest into something else (probably Love by chance 2) and this series isn't their priority.

You can see that Folk (Bar) would be great character in storyline with more depth since he can act and if guided properly, he could use his acting capabilities even more. On the other hand Win (Gun) not so much. He was acting weirdly and had one expression for the whole story(and that expression wasn't even enjoyable on top of that). Also he was okay looking, but not to the point of how they portrayed him. I mean in comparison to for example Sarawat (2gether) or Bohn (My engineer), where you clearly can see why everyone go so crazy for them, Gun is nothing too special. And I definitely don't mean it as an insult, in my opinion he just doesn't fit the role. And I would say that his acting is a really big part of why I can't really appreciate him. As viewer all I find interesting about him is his tallness, which is a sign of poorly written character, because he really have nothing much going on about him. He's dull, uninteresting and at times almost unbearable.

About the plot - sounded like cute, cheesy romcom in description, but was executed rather terribly.
