Simple & sweet, worth the watch
This is my first review i have left for a drama, and its mostly because i feel like this show deserves a much higher rating. if you're the kind of person who reads reviews before shows, i would honestly take the low ratings with a grain of salt, ESPECIALLY the ones where they're taking jabs at Diew's actors looks. yall can not like a show & be respectful. i've seen worse shows get higher ratings; shows filled with awful tropes, terrible miscommunication, and subpar acting. but this show was cute, and sweet, and it had some really heartfelt moments that made u empathize with the characters and even relate to some of their choices.
although the show has framed the characters with "personality types", i feel like there's more nuance to them than that. dont get me wrong, i dont think this show is as deep as something like the 8th sense, but there's definitely more to it than just two boys who have different personalities falling in love. its obvious from the start the Diew isnt just an "introvert", but someone with anxiety and self-esteem issues. he keeps to himself and doesnt like to interact with people much, which as someone with anxiety is very relatable. and God isnt just a popular boy with a pretty face, he has a good head on his shoulders and a pretty impressive sense of emotional intelligence, compared to most male leads in BL dramas. they also both have their own issues they need to fix as the show goes on, but its done in a pretty realistic way and the show is filled with sweet moments.
*warning, this is where some major spoilers will come in*
the miscommunication that only happens towards the end is pretty reasonable considering that God already knows who Pee is, and is giving Diew multiple opportunities to explain himself, but because Diew was so heavily affected by him and Pee's past relationship, it's also understandable why he wouldn't wanna share that part of his past with God. was it a good decision? no! did i understand why Diew made that decision anyway? absolutely!! he had been treated poorly and pitied by someone who he thought he could confide in, and didnt want it to happen again. in Diew's struggle to trust God completely and to also trust himself, he ends up causing conflict that gets resolved pretty quickly in a believable way! best of all, no one says anything to the other that would break apart entire families, let alone two young men in a brand new relationship, unlike some people (looking at you Mark & Vee). they actually TALK to each other and explain their feelings and perspectives, and they make up! God understands that he even if he's doing it out of love, he cant coddle Diew, & Diew understands that he needs to trust God, & himself, more.
there are still some cringey moments sprinkled in, but its a thai BL, when isnt there cringe? fork found in kitchen ya know? so if your biggest complaint is cringe, maybe thai BL's arent for you LOL. the NC scenes are romantic and tastefully done, without taking the attention away from the main tone of the story, and over all, this show was great! especially for those of us who just want to see queer love portrayed in a nontoxic way. its a cute, simple, & sweet show that is just filled with heartwarming moments.
