Really couldn't get into it
It's really unfornate that I couldn't get into it like i wanted because I love Gameplay and honestly Best gave me second lead syndrome hardcore from the trailer. I don't know whether It's the directing or Folk's acting or I just find First too insufferable but I just couldn't get into his acting with Gameplay. I know they have another coming up so i'll have to see if the chemistry clicks then but in here, it just wasnt. I wish for Best and Gameplay to one day have a series also, till then I'll continue to rewatch Ingredients and look forward to Checkout with Best. One positive tho besides Gameplay and Best is that I love the Ost. always love listening to Gameplay sing.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Foundational Romance Tropes: love triangle, cohabitation, grumpy/tsundere\sunshine
A Thai Bl quarantine project, short run series, that was a little like Call it What You Want meet My Mate Match. The support cast in this show was painfully bad (characters, story, and acting) although the 3 leads were fine. Interesting to see Gameplay play a full on tsundere uke, he was cute if a little too obstreperous. The actor playing First was fine, but then Best waltzed in portraying the second lead, Pluto. He pretty much blew everyone else on screen out of the water and gave me a terrible case of second lead syndrome. I look forward to seeing his full show, Check Out, next year. It got unexpectedly higher heat than I thought it would, which was well done, but I was left bereft and unsatisfied. This is why I loathe love triangles.RECOMMENDED ONLY IF YOU HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO

Even though it was made in 2021, it was my favorite of 2023
This one is so good, I went into it blind and I can say that's the first time I was pleasantly happy not knowing what was going on when I started.Gameplay & Folk have amazing chemistry together and it shows, I really want to see them in more series together. There spicy scene was my absolute favorite for no reason, I just loved it. I'm a sucker for an enemies to lovers with a happy ending.
Play "playing" and talking to his rabbit was the cutest thing I have ever seen.
Max played the role of Chai perfectly.
The ending was perfection, I defiantly would've been even more happy with 5 more episodes but I loved it nevertheless.

Every scene is at a snail’s pace
The way the series was shot and edited makes every single thing that happens feel like it takes so long. Just a character sitting down to do something or getting up. They’re single shots and there’s no edits or cuts. You’re literally just watching the actors move in real time. Watching feels like you’re constantly waiting for something to happen, anything, but nothing does.it is so agonizingly slow that even watching it 15% sped up still feels slow.
The actors also speak so slow that even when sped up, their speaking still sounds normal.
I watched the whole 1st episode and if you removed all of the walking, entering and exiting rooms, and adjusting themselves to sit down or stand up, the episode would be 10 or 15 minutes long. But it’s 40 minutes long.
Watching the first episode gave me bad college film flashbacks.

SUPERB SERIES!
Well, sa sobrang tagal ko na talaga sa panonood ng BL series, hindi na ako nag eexpect ng mataas lalo na kung pangkaraniwan na yung plot niya. Magiging magaganda lang on how they execute the story and having a good plot twist. I miss thai series since lately busy sa work and puro Japanese BL ako. But this series is so superb! I like the actors tho sometime yung acting skills ay hindi effective pero kaya yan nila iimprove for sure. Kudos to the productions also <3 Gonna rewatch it kapag may time ulit heheVond je deze recentie nuttig?
