Teasing & love

I found this through the World of BL site where it is marked as Vietnamese. It is not! It is a short, 2 part thai bl drama advertising a coffee shop and their strange drink, orange juice ice coffee.

Chalam and Thun are neighbours who have known each other forever but were never really friends. Chalam cannot stop teasing Thun and they both bicker a lot. But behind all the teasing, Chalam hides the fact that he likes Thun. He would like to confess to him, but all the teasing has made it impossible since Thun would not believe his sincerity. Eventually, with his sister's help, Chalam figures out that Thun actually likes him back and confesses.

This was short and somehow cute but the low budget was very much obvious. The scenes filmed outside seem warmer than the fixed set scenes inside (sitting at the desk or on a sofa!). The acting is a bit stilted and wooden: the line delivery (or the writing) is unnatural. There are a couple of quirky side characters: the restaurant waiter commentating the latest battle of wits and the teenage girl who changes her love target from the brother to his sister.

The plot is nothing original: enemies to lovers through teasing done right. The actors are handsome and Boy (Chalam) smiles a lot. It is a simple romcom, nothing more, nothing less. The music was awful: an out of tune a cappella song. And of course, there were so many ubiquitous and unnecessary sound effects. I mean, when are the producers going to start believing that the audience can understand when something is funny without pointing it out with these horrible noises?

Just a short, quick watch. Not too bad for an ad!
