Reasons Why You Must Give This A Chance !!!
Keita Hatsukoi is very famous and expections were high for the Thai version which the casts absolutely kept it. I know original is always best but this is NOT A COPY PASTE OF THE ORIGINAL. The show is adapted from the full volume of the manga so plot is same but also not same. Everyone has this predefined thought process that adaptations are always bad but this isn't always true. If u aren't even able to separate two things and appreciate it's individuality then that's a You problem.The casting here is perfect, changes to the storyline to fit the Thai culture very well done, acting is on point, the osts are all amazing & the chemistry between Kongthap and Atom top tier afterall it's Gemini Fourth we are talking abt. Just them staring at eo is enough to feel all this butterflies in the stomach
Coming to the acting I must say all of them are really good. We know Gemini Fourth acting is great and they have greatly improved from when they did MSP especially Gemini his expressions and delivery of the words, his body language everything shouts Kongthap like it's straight out the manga but in a more humane way and not too stoic which i thought was well done. This small differences and changes makes the character more like a real person fitting the real life.
Fourth playing Atom is perfect since there is no one better fit for this role than him. Being a calm, shy person in real life and playing a over expressing and over-reacting character itself is challenging. Being able to do justice to the character requires a lot of mental strength and overcoming ur own drawbacks to be able to express yourself like the character so that it is not cringe but also not dull. He has so far done a really good job and I know further eps it's just gonna get better. For me personally I really liked how Fourth has such a good grasp of his character and can express the feeling in the scene with just sight movements like u don't need words to be said to understand what the character is feeling in that moment & I think this is how an actor should be. Perfect
Half and Mudmee is played by Chokun & Pahn. They are newbies in the series but don't seem like one. They played their roles so naturally it didn't feel like a first timer for sure 🤣 I was expecting them to be good but fitting so well with the show and not being out of place even once makes me feel happy. I really liked Mudmee she is so cute.
We also have Khaopan played by AungPao, though there haven't been many scenes with him yet but looking at ep 4 his comical timing was good and the contrasting personalities with Kongthap his bff were nice to see.
There are 6 ost's in the series and of course they are all amazing. Gemini Fourth are really so talented makes me amazed everytime. When I saw "It's You" for the first time I was filled with an unexplainable feels and tears in my eyes. Them singing and harmonizing together it's like heaven to the ears. People may think that the Cinderella from the theatre play and the addition of new character takes away the essence of it but THATS NOT TRUE. This new version feels much more better bcz u are watching a freaking BL and a boy playing that role where he isn't cosplaying as another but being his own true self & falling in love this is itself a very good way to create awareness & normalising love is love that can happen anywhere with anyone. Please be open minded it's 2024 now !!!!!!!!!! The ep 2 was the best ep for me.
Lastly I want to address one thing new people who come to watch the show and read reviews might find some hateful comments and go back but I want to tell u give the series a chance please don't judge based on others point of view. Everyone can be their own judge. If u don't like it u can ignore it there is no need to spread hate because there are many people looking forward to the show. The people complaining abt age related issues let me remind u Gemini Fourth are 19 year olds when this series was filmed and they are playing the role of a 17-18 year old which is perfect age for a high school series. U can't be expecting more younger people to act in a series with 18+ scenes which is illegal. If u are okay with the jpn live action actors being older what's the issue here ???? One should'nt disregard peoples work just because ur feelings don't align. Everyone worked really hard for this and spreading misinformation and hate is not a right human behaviour. Not every series will be the same and moreover where is the fun in that ??? Unique approaches makes things intriguing.
I gave it 9.5 cz it's not completed yet.
Anyway #MyLoveMixUpTH is ongoing now and i would 100% recommend it ☺️
