Gun hard carried

Short review:

This used to be my top watched series when I first got into Thai BLs, but it has not hold up.

Good stuff: insane ost, cohesive theme throughout, Gun's acting, cinematography.

Needs improvement: fleshing out of the platonic relationships, characterisation, pacing, dynamics of side relationships.

The biggest kudos have to be given to the editing team and Gun. They really hard carried the show. When rewatching this, I'm just very captivated by Gun everytime he shows up on screen. He delivered an absolutely magnetic performance as Third and it's not just because he looks pretty while crying.

My biggest issue with this series, however, is how underdeveloped the characters are as people. They are so two dimensional - their identity is hugely centred around their love lives and not much else. I also don't understand how Third even developed a crush on Khai because this guy is an absolute ass who isn't even a good friend. I also am not bought on the side couples at all which sucks because they took up quite a bit of screentime.

This was a good series when it first came out and when we had no better Asian queer media options. Luckily, we now have tons of better options to choose from.
