The story is a 7 because it's not something that we haven't seen - panicked gay, benevolent straight guy that turns gay, a rich brat, a troublesome monkey, a vicious snake and some experienced seniors. That brings us to the cast - I can't say that I am fully satisfied with it. The main actor playing Ae in the series was not even an adult at the time of the making of the series and they made him do intimate scenes with the actor playing Pete. Other than this, I am fine with the rest of the cast. The acting of the casts was in line with the story so I enjoyed that. It's good to see when efforts are made to play the characters right. However, certain scenes did feel awkward probably due to editing and I hope this doesn't follow suit in the sequel.
Although Pete x Ae was the main couple, I still wanted to see more of Tin x Can and Techno x Kengkla. My immediate thought on them having less air time is that the other two couples will have their own series is that this series is mere introduction to their stories. Tin x Can have a little more air time than Techno x Kengkla and now we are having Love By Chance 2 that will feature their story.
I couldn't digest the fact that Trump's character was dissolved so soon in the series despite the drastic impact it had on Pete's character. I would have liked him being around a little longer. Considering how twisted and vicious Trump is, he was put off rather easily and early in the series. But then I haven't read the novel so I can't be demanding. Perhaps, the story isn't the kind where you want the bad guy to linger for long. Tin's prejudice was held long enough to irritate Pete and Ae.
Techno seemed an interesting character to me and I hoped to see more of him but guess, he and his buddies Type and Champ are for limited comic relief. Kengkla's obsession towards Techno is portrayed to be subtle however, I hope they could bring it out to light and strong if they both get to have their own series someday.
I did watch the series twice for fun and because I was bored so the rewatch value is 8 if you can overlook Can's annoying character. He gave Tin a hard time but then I think he deserved it considering the prejudice he held for so many reasons to so many people. Their bickering was refreshing though, I won't lie. They kept things from getting monotonous.
In the end, I will say this that Love By Chance is worth a watch. Its a mellow story for fun time.
