Story:
I honestly don't understand the tidbits of the fake-boyfriend subplot in the story. It doesn't have alot of impact and is abandoned so quickly. I find it very difficult to follow the story because the characters are all over the place, and the story keeps jumping from one character to the next. Why did they focus on Mo so much when she is just a supporting cast? Plus, she is suddenly insignificant in the sequel when she took up so much screen time in S1.

Acting/Cast:
I found the acting very awkward. I know they are young but the acting is very stiff and the chemistry is lacking. At times, especially during romantic scenes, I feel that White and Captain doesn't even want to look into each other's eyes. Of all the casts, Ngern and August are probably the better actors but it's unfortunate that they appear so little.

Music:
The one good thing about this drama is the OST. I like the music very much, and it introduces me to Boy Sompob's music. He has a very nice, charming voice.

Rewatch Value:
I've seen it once and that's it. I think it's too messy for me to rewatch; I don't care for about 3/4 of the other character's stories whether it be S1 or S2, and I wasn't feeling any chemistry enough to make me smile.

Overall:
I've watched this drama because of the hype. I think the director could've organized the plot/characters better. Western shows also have this type of youth story with multiple characters too but it is not this chaotic. I just cannot keep up with the characters and subplots and how they are even supposed to support the main story. It's like watching ten plots meshed in one story.

Life and Death

I read the manga before but wasn't that enamored by the manga but the movie storytelling style actually gave this story way, way more depth than the manga. The themes of the manga are shallow compared to the recurring life and death theme in the movie.

The mood of the story is very dark and suspenseful compared to the manga which sort of gave everything away by chapter 3. The small details the director(s) added elevated the story: for example, the music hummed by Yoda, the rooftop, the bottle of poison...etc all linked back to Yoda's trauma with missing the sign of his boyfriend's suicide.

The movie was done very artistically... I didn't feel like it was simply a porno or erotic movie. The sexual pleasure is something both characters used as a mechanism to feel alive.

Acting was good (especially Yoda). He was nothing like the manga character ... very domineering and scary yet also so sad at the same time. The somber piano music is appropriate.

Overall, I think this was a very good, dark BL if you are into darker themes. It explores some dark themes such as deaths, suicide, and depression.
