PhoomPeem carried the show.
This show has just come to an end.Here are my two cents.
This show follows the typical school romance plot. Lots of ships.
The show is humorous in many parts, I will not deny that. But some parts were just meh.
I came here for the romance, so that is what I will talk about.
QToey. Idk, but I didn't really care for this ship much. The 'let's make him jealous to win him over' part is overdone to death.
I can't say I was invested in their storyline. But they're fine. Not unbelievable.
FangTan is the epitome of cringe. It's hard to watch their scenes when Tan is acting like a child fawning over him. Outside this ship, Tan has no agency, nothing to add to his character. He is just there to be a love interest . It's just plain annoying. I cannot imagine what real person on this planet thinks it's normal to behave like that all the time. Fang could do so much better. I wish they could write a better partner for him. The backstory they wrote for how these two met was nothing special. Idk why the fandom is blowing it out of proportion saying it was such a huge plot twist. What exactly was so great about them hating each other before?
ChainPun. Honestly, the writers just paired them up since everyone else already had someone. No chemistry between these two. They give more of friend vibes. But still, no where as offputting as TanFang. That last ep kiss was a bit cringe to watch, it seemed forced as hell. They didn't seem head over heels for each other. Shoehorning it into the last few eps won't suddenly make it seems natural.
And the best for last. The only ones that kept me watching the show
PhoomPeem. These two actually have goals and lives outside each other. Nothing too complex, but it's something. These two are walking chemistry . Their interactions were swoonworthy, and the transition from enemies to lovers was natural. You can see how much emotion these two can convey with just a smile or a look in their eyes. No other cast could outshine them in this regard. The viewer could clearly pinpoint the exact moment they both started feeling a spark between them, literally even these two knew they mutually liked each other but waited for the right time to make it official, oof. I like that they didn't invite drama and were mature and honest about their feelings for each other. There was a third party involved to start jealousy drama, but that was shut off and communicated clearly. Kudos to this ship.
Towards the end of the show, though, the show began to feel lacklustre. It felt like they were just making stuff up to fill airtime as they didn't know how exactly to end the show in a memorable way. It's a decent watch if you're looking for the standard cliche Thai bl romance.

a light hearted masterpiece
first off all I am very sad it is ending , can't even express in words how much I fell for everyone in the show , I admit at first watching first ep I was kinda confused if this show will catch my attention but slowly it makes you go crazy over everythingevery couple showed some kind of comfort to me , I will miss them tooo much ,
chain pun happened they really made us wait too much but it was worth it
q toey are my fav out of all couples the back story was perfect the acting was better and everything was great . pond phuwin never ever disappoints us in series , phuwin saying he learnt alot from his character made me sob as i relate , i might not have friends like peem's friend group but i am sure i will enjoy my life to the fullest , thanks to p'new for directing this series tooo
evrything was perfect for me

A feel-good show and a great display of friendship.
If you're looking for a slice of life show with great depiction of friendship, this is the show for you.The fact that this show has little to no plot is a thing you need to know before clicking play on the 1st episode. It uniquely revolves around love and friendship and i actually enjoyed it for what it was.
Were the 16 episodes necessary? I don't think so. Don't get me wrong i love a good slowburn with my pairings but if it starts becoming total nonsense just to keep the slowburn going then i don't want it. This is why i had a hard time getting into Phum and Peem at first.
Anyways, they did a great job at introducing the different characters and their individualities which isn't easy when you have a million of them.
4 couples in a bl show is definitely a challenge but i personnally think that they succeded at that (?), i just wish we didn't waste that much screentime on Phum and Peem's relationship when we had a whole ChainPun right beside them.
I'm gonna sound biased but the highlight for me was definitely Tan et Fang, their backstory was actually refreshing and surprising at the same time. Aou and Boom's chemistry is impeccable and i just needed more of them in every episode.
I'm not big on gmmtv osts but i have to say that the main one was actually really nice and it brought a great touch to the romantic scenes.
Would i rewatch this show? Probably not because while it was a nice watch, 16 episodes were a lot for this kind of storyline and some parts didn't keep my attention for long.

Feel good Series
Wholeheartedly enjoyed this. Very simple very easy, no (or almost no) unnecessary Drama, just a friend group that apparently exclusively consists of people who like men and their stories of finding to each other.I’m pretty sure it took me a few Eps to get into this but latest at around EP 4/5 I couldn’t stop watching since everyone was just so cute and I wanted to see how things progress.
There’s really not much of a story aside from the 500 couples getting together, but that was enough for me honestly.
Just a feel good drama for those times when you just need a cute pick me up.
I did feel like the last couple of episodes where stretched out a bit unnecessarily just repeating the same stuff over and over, so I don’t really think it needed 16 episodes, but overall I still wholeheartedly enjoyed this.

The friendship in it is just mwahh ?
I loved it. one of the best bl's. even though it lagged a bit, this drama gave me emotional trauma. I actually live abroad and is far away from my best friends. I miss them a lot. and while watching this drama, I cried so hard. I loved every couple in it. pond and phuwin was so cute. as mentioned in the drama, phuwin as pond gives positive vibes. it gave me chills. my fav couple would definitely be P'Q and Toey. they are so cute and fun. winny and satang did a great job. they gave me real couple vibes. and aou as tan made me laugh so hard. I was rolling on the floor. boom was so cool and handsome. I almost fell in love. my favorite kiss scene of this drama would be pun and chain's kiss in the last episode. it was so cutefinally, I loved the whole drama. it gave a wholesome vibe. most recommended for newbies who is not still comfortable with you know things ??.
in one word. 'a must watch'
also matt, mick, beer and aunt pui also had many funny roles. I love them especially aunt pui. she did a great job ?

Slice of life/ Friendship!!
I enjoyed watching the series on Wednesday's. It gave me peace and comfort and something to look forward to every week. Dont expect a gripping storyline..just think of it as a casual watch and i am sure you will enjoy it...!!My preference on CP 1. PhumPeem (enemies to lovers trope) 2. TanFang (wishing to see them as main CP)..otheres were kinda good but didnt stick for me.
Wish we could watch Aou and Boom in a mature and story heavy series soon !!!

We Are Family
We Are is everything I typically don't like in dramas. It lacks direction and plot, the characters aren't anything special, the acting is mixed, and the list goes on. But I adored every second of it. It's not deep, it's not angsty, it's not one of those dramas that you're going to walk away from rethinking your life, it's just 16 episodes of pure wholesome love and friendship.I'm going to say it again, there is no plot here and while normally that would drive me mad, it works for We Are. It's not breaking the mold when it comes to the story, we're back in the typical college BL setting that we can never seem to get away from. The Fine Arts major is a little more original though I have mixed feelings on how it was incorporated, mostly in that I don't think any Fine Arts student worth their salt would be walking around with a completed painting unprotected like Peem was in that first episode, but what would I know, I'm not a Fine Arts student. I just know that I wouldn't, but I'm also slightly OCD and a chronic overthinker and just watching him gave me anxiety. There is no major conflict or villain to shake things up. The few issues that do come up are dealt with quite quickly and neatly. The pacing could have been better, it definitely lags in the middle and towards the end. Considering the lack of plot, I think it could have been condensed into 12 episodes, but I also think, given the number of characters and side romances, some of their stories could have been better drawn out and the whole thing in general just made more organized and cohesive.
The key to We Are is the friendship between the characters and how even as they pair off, that friendship remains and their group just continues to grow. They are all, with the exception of Fang and Beer, a bunch of dorks. Adorable, sweet, idiotic dorks. You simply cannot help but to love them. Their unwavering support of each other is endearing and their "plans" are absurd and painful to watch but also entertaining in all their trainwreck glory. They mean well. And while it is mostly fun and games, there are a few moments where they have genuine heart to heart conversations, usually between Phum and Beer or Peem and Q as they try to work out their feelings. They serve as a nice break from the chaos and to solidify those particular friendships.
The chemistry between the actors is a large part of what made We Are such a success. They played off of each other so well that it was fully believable they were the best of friends. But while the buddy chemistry was off the charts, the romantic chemistry was definitely lacking between some couples. Pond/Phuwin and Winny/Satang seemed uncomfortable/awkward during their more intimate moments and while being hesitant or awkward during a first kiss is normal, it's not every time afterward. Aou and Boom on the other hand ate that up. Acting in general was mixed. Pond and Phuwin have both improved since Never Let Me Go, but while both are very talented in other regards, neither has ever struck me as particularly talented when it comes to acting unfortunately. Marc was also pretty lackluster and really didn't seem to be putting out much effort. Satang impressed me in a big way. He was so adorable as Toey and brought that perfect mix of cute and mischievous. So talented! Aou has blown me away in every role he's played and I'm so glad he finally got a lead role. He absolutely killed it! He was so annoyingly cute as Tan. He and Boom act so well together and are both so talented. I really want them to get their own series. They deserve it.
I really enjoyed the music for this series, both the opening and closing songs and each couple's theme song. I do think they got over played a bit as per usual, but I liked them enough that it was slightly less annoying than it might have been. There were aspects of the cinematography that I really liked, shots like in Episode 15 where Q is framing Toey's face with his fingers. I do think they could have found ways to incorporate their art more, but I can also see how that might have been a challenge.
I went into this series with no expectations of liking it, half expecting to drop it, and it's now currently sitting in my GMMTV shopping cart as I seriously consider buying it. It's not deep, it's not profound, but I think it speaks to the kind of friendships some of us may have and many of us wish we had. While We Are may present itself as a rom-com, it's the friendships that make it and leave an impression.

Una dulzura!! La serie que te hará morir de diabetes
esta serie acabo y no me lo puedo creer, esta es la serie que cura el corazón! ame de principio a fin, no le doy un 10/10 porque siento que hubo un tema que no me desarrollaron de manera efectiva, pero después de eso, esta serie es un soplo cálido al alma, te enamora con cada personaje, una serie de amistad y amor, donde conocemos la historia de este grupo de amigos y como se van enamorando de sus respectivas parejas, aunque uno de los enfoques centrales es ver la creación de las parejas, no es lo único, ya que podemos ver esa amistad entre ellos, y como van entendiendo que están creciendo.Definitivamente la recomiendo, si amas las series azucaradas y busca una para curar el algo o simplemente sin dramas innecesarios, esta es tu serie, la que vas a amar siempre.
La musica en esta serie es increíble, no solo el OST principal, la ambientación y todo queda perfecto.
La actuación de todos me encanto, sobre todo el AouBoom, tanto como pareja como individualmente me tuvieron atrapados todo el tiempo, aveces me daban diabetes de lo dulce que son, pero si espero ver una serie de ellos como protagonistas muy pronto, sin duda seria de las primeras en verla. De igual manera todas las parejas y actores lo hicieron realmente bien.
La historia es sencilla pero practica, no es necesario mil vueltas y problemas innecesarios cargados de dramas, ame eso, que la serie me dejara ser feliz siempre, sin duda necesita este tipo de serie de Tailandia, no diré que nunca ha habido así, pero sin duda la necesitaba. Cada pareja tuvo su momento y a lo largo de esta serie se puede apreciar el crecimiento de cada una de estas. Espero con ansias mas historias así, con tan buenas actuaciones.

Wasn't expecting to be hooked on this one
I waited a while after the series ended before writing this review because I wanted to be as objective as possible.Went into this with very little expectation, seeing that it was yet another university-friends-enemies-to-lovers series by GMMTV. I was expecting a recycled plot (i mean it's engineering students again...) and lots of cliche but ended up falling in love with the entire cast. So much so that i didn't mind the cliche "everyone ends up as happy gay couples" ending.
Sure it was cute and fluffy, and the acting isn't quite IFYLITA or ITSAY standard, but some of the dialogue were well-written and tugged at the heartstrings. There were also great comic timing (kudos to JJ, Phuwin, Poon and Pond) and replay moments in the scenes between the MLs. Was pleasantly surprised by Phuwin's and Pond's natural acting and their amazing chemistry, and loved the scenes where the friends just gathered and were there for each other.
The script was well-written and although i did find the last 2 episodes a little draggy, i thought the series was overall well-paced with just the right amount of romantic tension. Overall this was a surprising feel good series (especially if you're in between other serious dramas) that didn't overdo the cliches, had well written characters (and bothered to develop these characters), good dialogue and a balanced focus on love and friendship. Peem is just such a wonderfully written character that you wished was real, cos everyone needs a Peem in their lives.

Cute
This was very typical GMMtv and I loved it. Nothing spectacular happened and no real drama but there were some cute couples and funny scenes. Pond and Phuwin are one of the cutest couples.This series actually had 4 couples and 3 friends. So, the series included 11 boys. That’s a lot! I never really felt much romantic chemistry (maybe from Pond and Phuwin) but the rest just came across as good friends. I was most surprised about Satang. His character was completely different than his character in My School President. He’s a good actor. And I couldn’t get enough of him saying “P’Q”!
Thailand is so beautiful and there were some gorgeous places they travelled to.
Watch this if you want fun and no drama.

Very Cutesy
Highly recommend for those who want to watch a cute university BL with little to no drama. BUT I do not recommend it if you are wanting a serious and drama-filled plot.Amazing portrayal of healthy relationships, both romantic and platonic. I wish to see more bls like this in the future.
The acting was amazing, and I found the little animal sound effects fitting for the show.
My only real complaint is the screen time each couple gets. PhumPeem gets the most obviously, BUT my issue is that couples like TanFang and especially ChainPun, barley got any, didn't even kiss until the end which was a bit annoying, and imo the show should have either had a few more episodes to even out the screentime, or cut a few of PhumPeems scenes, or shortened them to fit the other couples.

I may be scarred by other shows cause whenever an episode was just so fun or when they made promises to do something together soon, I thought something bad was gonna happen real soon but nothing ever did.
No bad vibes here, no misunderstandings, no breakups, no toxic, no threats, no stupid fights, just good vibes, amazing chemistry and hilarious fun with real plot and development
Everyone in this cast is pretty identifiable and had their own style, I struggle with faces but I was never confused here.
The first episode (or at least the first 20ish minutes) were a bit slow for my taste and I even stopped there and had it on "hold" for a few months but I tried it again and after that slow bit, it was never ending entertainment
The characters in this show are very heartwarming and they never hesitate to share their thoughts with everyone that they love each-other and are happy they're all together, that they'll be forever grateful they're in each-others lives. Everyone (and I mean everyone) were always included and never left out, always being together and helping each-other
I'll always be jealous of this friend group and it'll be my dream to have people in my life like this, I'm already 24 so hope I can find my group soon haha.
I'm still laughing at this one scene where Peem visits home and says to his mum "I brought my friends with me" then gestures with a camera zoom out; a bus load of 10 handsome guys taking up the whole screen hahahaha, bro really brought an arsenal (his parents loved all of them, super heartwarming)
I also love the bloopers at the end of the last ep where the cast couldn't stop laughing, you just know they had a blast almost everyday on set
Very much recommend this show and take a break from the toxic stuff we often see <3
