Behind the Times, but Still Recommend
I loved the chemistry between Sky and Sun. Both actors were spot on in their roles! Pitch and Bank were a great (comic relief) couple too!
Some of the things I didn't like were as follows:
1. Pitch's sudden character change towards the beginning. I didn't quite get that?
2. Both Juno and Toekyang were portrayed as weak characters that can't defend themselves or fight in a demanding situation. I felt that suggested that boys are supposed to be physically strong and mighty and girls need a man to protect them. I'm not exactly sure the year this series took place and the gender stereotypes/roles in Thailand (or if to what extent they exist per see), but it did feel behind the times.
3. Boat's song was pretty good, but definitely overplayed throughout the series (though it was cool when Sun actually sung the song by the fire)
4. The last episode had some fire love scenes, but the agreement between the boys and Sky's father was just what?
5. This drama felt like an early to mid - 2010s style drama, not one from 2021 just based on the production style. But then again, this is also my first Thai drama, so the film industry likely has some differences from China, Taiwan, and Korea. However, I will say that I didn't really get into the LGBTQIA+ Chinese/Taiwanese/Korean dramas, but I was addicted to this one.
Definitely would still recommend watching this one, especially if you are into BL dramas!
