Groundhog Day
Negatives:Absolutely nothing new.
Boring repetitions.
Show every cliché.
The story flow was 1 step forward 2 back for no apparent reason.
A maximum of 12 episodes were needed.
Positives:
Interesting acting progression for some of the actors.
Even though nothing happens you watch it comfortably and quickly (up to episode 12 ).
Funny roles that create a pleasant mood.
Overall:
Simple Comfort Watch

Watch this at least once!!
I have to start by saying that this was a story with a different dynamic even though it looks like a typical university thai bl drama. All the actors were soo good, especially Pond and Phuwin because I love them! The part that I like most about this drama is the comedy. The sound effects makes it even more funnier!! The storyline was simple, not complex or confusing at all. I also love how this drama is friendship oriented and how it shows the brotherly love between all the friends. The drama kept me a hook every Wednesday and was worth watching every episode because each eposide had its own highlight. Unlike a typical university bl , 'We are' felt different because of the acting and the storyline. Between the story the unexpected kissing scenes were sooo gooddd.. I feel like the actors did their best and the chemistry between the couples were good. Although I still think that they could have added more kissing scenes! LOL .Overall the drama is good, not the best but still good and simple. Feels more like a friendship based story and the comedy is soo good. Watching this drama is worth it!

Still waiting to see how this ends
This show had so much potential and it still does maybe but... this show has too many leads, I high key wish it wasn't so focused on everyone. Idk why I didn't expect it to be this way when the description legit states a group of friends. They need to add the tags for multiple leads & multiple couples, I wish Pond and Phuwin had their own show, I found myself skipping most of the other couples/other leads most of the time. I really want to see Phum and Peem's characters romance develop more but they haven't had the chance to due to the group aspect of the story this show was written in. I hope in the future Pond and Phuwin get their own show without focusing on to many leads taking away from the story in my opinion. I will keep watching until the series ends and I will update this. As for right now, the show is dragging along with character/relationship development.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
All comfort, no hurt
There is not much depth in this show, no fancy plotlines or heavy drama but there doesn't really need to be, this show is a good portrayal of healthy friendships and I think that is what makes it special far more than the 'bl' part of it.Ngl I started off this show not caring about PhumPeem bc I'm not a particular fan of PondPhuwins acting skills but they grew on me, I think they benefited from not having heavy plotlines bc I'm not really sure if their acting skills could handle it.. the push-and-pull vibes in their relationship reminded me of my own college days and I like how they communicate, so it was fun to watch ❤️
I love love love Tan&Fang, every time they're on screen I wish they had more time, I would've loved to see more depth in their relationship. Fang is more of an introvert but he's sooo funny and he really tries to come out of his shell when he's with Tan. Also, Tan is like the glue that holds the group together and I really love him for that. Even though he acts a bit over the top, it fits his character and makes me appreciate him more ❤️ I also think AouBoom is an underrated ship (@gmmtv give them their own show NOW) and cannot wait for more of them in the future ❤️❤️
QToey I have a bit of a love-hate relationship, they have their cute moments and I really like WinnySatang, I also think Satang is a great actor but his character here is too childish for me personally as a 25yo, it gets a bit uncomfortable to watch at times I would've liked to see more serious scenes between the two of them, the whole cutesy, giggly and childish relationship doesn't do it for me, tbh they're my least favorite couple in the show even though I really like the actors
LASTLY ChainPun deserved more ?? I could write an essay about how much I wish they got more screentime, I think the chemistry is there, and they have such beautiful subtle moments between them but there's just too little time to develop it, I know it's probably bc of the actor switch as well but it sucks that they only get crumbs. I've seen people comment on their acting skills but I don't think I can judge it fairly, we've just seen too little of them for me to have an opinion on it.
All in all, I liked this show, it had great moments. I absolutely love the scenery and the way they talk about their feelings between couples and between friends. I'll be sad to see it go after next wednesday, it was very comforting to watch and it made me really happy. It's not perfect but I don't think they intended that. It portrays the beauty of friendship and found family and I love it for that.
If you're looking for a show filled with drama/angst/ heavy plot-based I'd say this show is not for you, but if you need a break that feels like a long 16-hour hug, this is the one for you.

Outline of a Review here.
Plot: This is a feel-good story and I'm all for it. We all need something sweet & nice in our life.Character(s): All of them are well balanced.
A mix of sweetness, comic timing, romantic, quirky and well built.
Acting: The chemistry between the couple's that have been formed till EP15 is really commendable.
To Be Continued.........
**Special Shout Out to Pond Naravit!**
They have, in my opinion, mastered the art of showing emotions brilliantly. Idk if it's the result of immense practice, method acting, skill or just straight-up talent from within but the way they have grown in their career so far is as 'aged like a fine wine' as it gets.
✔️Poom's birthday scene specifically where Peem leans in to kiss him after gifting him the flowers made me want to write this down so I don't forget to add this to my review, once the series is finished.
Closing your eyes while kissing is basic knowledge but there is this feeling one gets when they kiss their partner in the beginning of the relationship, the 'honeymoon phase' if you will. You get butterflies and when your lips touch, this overwhelming, butterflies in the stomach, the tension in the pit of your stomach, everything. And the need to just give in to your partner's embrace.
That face, as soon as their lips meet in the scene is everything I needed. I mean i don't generally feel the need to pause an episode I've been eagerly waiting for to write down stupid sh!t. This scene gave me goosebumps and there's a very valid reason why.
The exact moment is around 33:13 minutes into the series. Y'all NEED to check this exact moment out when they kiss, Pond's eyelids drop and close and goddamnit! They are good. ?
Bits I Hated (bit strong), Disliked:
The family reconciliation bit is so overrated in any genre. (EP15)
Whenever it's a kid that doesn't want to talk to their parent(s), we always hear everyone say -
"Oh but they're your parents."
"It's a shame for you not be talking to them."
"They are older. They have a right."
"Parents make mistakes."
"Taking care of them is your duty since they raised you."
Why is it that a child has to carry the burden of making up with the family or elders? Why not for a change an elder accepts their fault in any situation? If a child doesn't feel like they can get over something a parent did, when the child is a grown up, I don't see the need for them to reconcile. They are an adult and they can make their own decisions. If someone makes them feel bad about themselves, they have the right to not keep them in their life. I absolutely hate when this topic is discussed in a TV show or movie saying how the child should reconsider or give the parent a second chance.
Life is short, if we start giving second chances to everybody that did us wrong, a 20 something kid would have no life left to give those chances.
In my opinion, Phum doesn't need to talk to his father who seems be always makes snarky comments towards him. That in itself shouldn't be tolerated. I'd speak up, give them a dose of their own medicine. It's good enough he didn't talk back too much, there's absolutely zero need for Phum to reconcile if the idea was put in his mind by Peem, instead of it being Phum's choice and decision.

i love This show smm
but its kinda annoying that there is so many couples tbh. i mean i love all the couples but couldnt 1 or 2 couples be the side characters. anyways i loveeee the casting and the acting, satangs acting in episode 7 was sooo good. the couples are so cute but the series is tbh a slow burn, ive Only watched 11 episodes and it ended right when peem was about so say smth to phum because he said he liked peem. AND NOW I HAVE TO WAIT FOR A WHOLE WEEK TO SEE WHAT HE SAID! its sooo annoying. BUT ANYWAYS I REALLY RECOMEND THIS SERIES, ITS SAURR GOODDD!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT!!
When I realised that ppl are being unnecessarily harsh on this series, was when I decided to write my 1st ever review.This series is like home for me. The soft tones, smiles and healthy friendship feel so wistful to look at! Like being together with your friends through highscl and college is a feat, and that is commendable.
THE RELATIONS ARE SO DAMN HEALTHY! I kid you not, when ppl romanticise lying (even 'forced-to-do-no-other-choice) I feel disgusted. This show addressed that. The playfulness, the comfort and the beauty of the relations portrayed was commendable.
We had 3 different tropes - Enemies to lovers, Friends to lovers, Secret crush! And although one of the couple was rushed, the other three had pretty good pacing with interesting storylines.
My favourite was TanFang, BUT my 'the comfort ship' was PhumPeem. They just have a special charm of their own! So glad AouBoom get recognition for their roles finally! PondPhuwin were stellar just like in NLMG (despite the difference in characters)
I found 'Milk Frappe Boy' and 'Pencil Senior' a bit overused, and QToey's plot was unnecessarily dragged out but the initial stages were extremely cute.
ChainPun was sort of scattered all over the place but I desperately wanted more time for those cuties! Ooooof, Pun is a Cupid but he has no idea Chain's flirting w him T_T! It was torturous (in a good way) to watch Chain try to flirt with that baby!!
Definitely reccomended (I can't spell it) if you want to squeal and blush for 800 mins
PS. Going to miss "Teerak narakaa", "Ku chhob penguin" and "Mah Phum" soooo damn much!

Going to miss these Wednesdays a lot
This is one of the best shows I have seen this year. I've enjoyed it a lot.If I was stressed one day and needed to clear my mind, watching the show weekly was a good help. That's why I like series that are broadcast every week and not all at once. One thing I want to clarify is that not just any series is good for this, if one is boring or doesn't catch your attention you don't even want to keep waiting a week to see what happens. With We Are this happened to me, I looked forward to every Wednesday to find out what would happen and, most importantly, having fun watching it.
I really like the couples and actors that appear here, none of them seemed boring to me, I especially loved the couple of Tan and Fang, I didn't expect Aou and Boom to have such good chemistry.
On the other hand, I didn't dislike the songs, I love the song truth in the eyes by Pond and Phuwin.
To sum up, I really liked the image quality, I think it is very well crafted and helps you follow the series easily.
Thank you We Are for being a part in my life now.

Marc & Poon are a new couple they need a show with lead roles I like them together ( we need to see them more)

I LOVE IT.
I was so deppressed last week and then i choose to binge watch current available episode of We Are (Yes, I've been marinate it for awhile) and than BAMMM suddenly life's feel worth living again The plot actually quite simple (which i really love, cause i don't like heavy stuff). And the comedy it's top tier! Kinda make me wants to rewatch Fish Upon The Sky huehehee. And the fact that they almost got the same cast got the nostalgia poin up to 10! The character that got my love most is Kaofang, i think he put a spell on me you guys! I never really got drawn to Boom's character! But in here he so charming <3 ehem back to serious bussiness, the acting its getting better i think. The OST its on repeat! This series have not been finish yet but i can't wait for their next project! Yes you can say i'm being greedy!! HEHE.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Best couples
Zakochałam się w każdej postaci i dlatego co tydzień czekam z niecierpliwością na kolejne odcinki.We are jest typową dramą i nikogo raczej tego nie zdziwi. Wiele serii jest do siebie podobna, ale ta ma coś czego niektóre nie są wstanie nam zafundować.
Świetnie zbudowane postacie, do których bardzo się przywiązujemy, przez co fabułą wydaje się jeszcze lepsza. Aktorzy świetnie się spisali, czuć chemię między każdą parą❤
PhumPeem jest moją fav parą w tej dramie.
Polecam każdemu.
