CONSENT?!?!?!? where..?

Whilst writing this its been about a month since I actually watched the show so bare with me if some timings are wrong but you should over all get the gist anyway. I use a lot of swearing for this so buckle up and triggers for SA and r*pe

Okay so this show is such a shambles honestly, like if you minus the consent issues and its weird obsession with sexual assault then this shows premise could have been at least a little promising. Like the whole illegal racing, like racer x innocent civilian or whatever is a great trope and I've read many fanfictions that have depicted this trope really nicely but this show... its like they use this trope only occasionally and its mainly forgotten after the first episode. The only time its brought back really is either; the FLASHBACK to that first episode or its for that one racing episode later on.

Phayu x Rain
Okay so I would say this relationship was probably a little more sane than the other relationship (Prapai x Sky, which I'll mention later) but these two still have major issues. Starting off, when they first meet in the rain and all that I was really excited to see where this show would go as that whole scene was so cute and so promising. BUT OH BOY DOES IT GO DOWNHILL REAL FAST. To be honest that restaurant scene or whatever it was felt like a fever dream so I don't remember it that well but I definitely remember the next bit, when Phayu allows Rain to stay the night. First off, Phayu trying to kiss and do weird shit with Rain was a big nono and the fact the Rain LITERALLY SAID NO and Phayu continued made me real uncomfy. Like you've invited this man to your house and you are now sexually assaulting him. Peak romance huh. Like first of all you can DEFINITELY tell Rain is very uncomfortable and even tries to leave, secondly YOU HAVE JUST MET THIS MAN. Like doing that stuff in an already established relationship is most of the time bad anyway (unless you've asked consent from your partner) but then doing it to a literal stranger is a CRIMEEEEEEEE. If I was Rain I would have 100% called the police and put this man on a list. Later on, throughout the show they obviously get along blah blah blah romance shit but then Rain gets kidnapped and Phayu is about the risk his life for a man HE JUST MET!!! like not just just met, like the just met I referenced earlier, but being real you guys have been in a relationship for about one or two months and Phayu really gonna risk his life and status just like that. Also him getting kidnapped was low-key funny cause it was so out of nowhere. This couple overall had a lot of potential and if you were to look over the SA then it was alright at best. I like that Phayu helps with homework and whatever and blah blah blah there dynamic was kinda boring though. The only redeeming factor was the portrayal of intimacy, specifically the first instance. I thought that first moment felt quite special and it wasn't really cringe or made me turn away. Overall, this was definitely the better couple of the two.

Prapai x Sky
HERE WE FUCKING GO. I hate these two so much, first off PRAPAI IS HIGHKEY A STALKER FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP. THIS MAN WILL GO TO CRAZY FUCKING LENGTHS TO MESSAGE, INTERACT WITH SKY, TO LIKE A DISGUSTING POINT. Multiple times Sky blocks Prapai's number to stop him from constantly spam calling and messaging him but this man is bloody persistent, because every time he's block he whips out a new sim card and continues to HARASS poor old sky. Like Sky is a student he can't be dealing with this stalker behaviour. IF I WAS SKY I WOULD HAVE CALLED THE POLICE FOR A POTENTIAL STALKER!!!!!! AS WELL LATER ON HE SAID HE JUST WANTED TO GET WITH HIM INITIALLY JUST BECAUSE 'the sex was good' LIKE!?!>?!?!
Eventually Sky lets the stalker in (BAD MOVE BRO) and they romance for a little bit. Then PARTY SCENE!!!!!!!!!!!! god rubbish puke gross ugh. Unsurprisingly, Prapai has to cheat on Sky real quick cause he's a plAyeR. This random hookup you had before is 'hugging' you and you let him like how can he later on just tell Sky that was a hug and then Sky believing him. LIKE HE WAS FULL ON FEELING UP HIS titty ON THE SOFA AND YOU LET HIM DO THAT YOU DISGUSTING MAN. Then Sky crying in the car was heartbreaking, him getting them traumatic flashbacks was real sad. I hate how Sky rightfully so hated him and then after a couple words of 'oh i didnt cheat' and 'it was just a hug' magically you forgive him. YOU SAW THE TITTY TOUCH MAN!! (they weren't direct quotes btw). god I hate Prapai.
Last episode of the show was 100% the worst. This is the episode where SKY LITERALLY GETS R*PPED?!?!?!? like why is that a plot line?!??! I was full on expecting him to ALMOST get to that point but then the gang saves the day beats up Gun and it would all be over, see how I said expected? BECAUSE THIS SHOW LITERALLY SHOWS HIM ACTUALLY GETTING R*PPED?!? Thank god it was penetrative but still Gun has, at this point, tied Sky up and done some horrible shit. I still can't believe this show just fully showed that, so uncomfortable and DISGUSTING!!! As well WHERE ARE THE POLICE?!?!?!? you have this offenders name, surely you can get him locked up no? You have multiple witnesses!!!
Anyway later Prapai tries to comfort him and when he does Sky seems to be magically cured from years of trauma after one single conversation with a man you've known for about two to three months. God. Overall there is no redeeming qualities of these two being real like even there intimacy was rushed and boring.

Throughout the entirety of the second half (Prapai x Sky half), its like Phayu and Sky were completely forgotten and vanished as they only really show up together once or twice. The second half of this drama feels like a completely separate drama on its own. The end was also anti-climatic, as I was at least expecting some sort of double date or some feature of Phayu and Rain to show closure to their relationship, but NOOO it was some boring office scene. I know there is a movie sequel to this but I hated this drama so much I just know it would be excruciating to watch the movie.

I feel as though many people rate this show highly only due to the fact that; the actors are attractive and that there is heavy sexual intimacy and kinky shit. Like the plot of this show is so boring because of how fast they get all lovey-dovey and the fact they missed out on a really good plot line (illegal racing) to be fully incorporated. Like I mentioned earlier, I've read fanfiction that have pulled this off really well and honestly all of them were written better than this trainwreck.

Sorry for that rant there but I just hate this show so much! Near the end there I'm not sure if much of that made sense LMAO. I might of gotten some areas a bit muddled through that, as I mentioned I did watch this about a month ago but I hope this was still readable. but yeah enjoy this fun little word vomit anyway lol
