Unexpectedly good!

I started this on a whim: I had nothing to watch, I wanted to watch a bl and this one had just finished airing so I decided to give it a go! If I had to decide whether to watch this based on the poster(comedy! urgh!) and the synopsis(school bl? urgh), I never would have started this. And I would have missed this little gem.

-What made this series extraordinary are the two main actors: Sea and Keen. While Keen is, just like his name suggests, keen, cheerful, happy go lucky and sweet and charming young man, I fell under the spell of Sea: his speaking voice, his solid acting and his sweetness. They are young but they are giving Gemini and First run for the money. I am eagerly waiting for their next project, together or separately, I don't care, I want to watch them in something else. Soon! In any case they are very much at ease with each other, and are not afraid to kiss in spite of their young age. Do not miss the bonus scenes at the end of the last episodes where they show us interrupted kisses from the drama uninterrupted: too cute! Speaking of which, there is the best accidental kiss I have ever seen in the first episode: cute and hilarious.

The plot is full of clichés but they are done so well, I did not mind them. The spoiled brat with a heart of gold, the struggling and suffering artist and cook with a heart of gold. Girl best friend with a heart of gold, encouraging the young men. The odd second couple. The cousin falling for the cook....In a way this reminds me of japanese dramas where everyone is nice and kind and open and even the apparently bad characters turn out to be nice. Actually, after the first episode, I was a bit worried at how they are going to stretch the thin plot over 12 episodes. Frankly they did a great job, not wasting too much time on repetitions, flashbacks and pointless subplots. There was not a dull moment!

They did away with annoying screaming trans characters which was one of the reasons why I enjoyed this so much. They also used a lot of sfx (lightning, hearts etc) and sound effects, which I usually hate with all my might. Here those did not bother me once. I am still reeling from the realization! LOL

I am very difficult when humour is concerned (slapstick and cring are to be avoided!) and here I was served the sweetest kind of funny with a minimal, barely perceptible cringe. Music on the other hand was a disappointment: it was the usual generic funky thai bl songs, which sound the same as every other thai bl song with a catchy tune and the passages a capella and eventually unremarkable.

This little drama is a perfect summer watch; sunny, fun, with some lovely acting, decent chemistry and solid writing. Don't expect to be shaken by this drama but it is a perfect blend of funny, fluffy and cute. Thank you for this nice surprise GMMTV.
