The biggest surprise ever.

As surprising as it is, I was not impressed by the trailer of this bl, nor did I ever thought of watching it. I saw the other series that Kao was in and that left a bad taste in my mouth, I hated it. But I thought, "who am I not to watch the first ep??? For the gays, let's do it". And God did I love it. The writing though, it's just amazing, whoever wrote the series, y'all did that. I am in love with the transparency. Finally, a bl that says "I AM GAY", "I DONT LIKE GIRLS", "YOU SHOULD ASK FOR THIS INSTEAD OF JUST DOING IT", and so on... It's just magnificent, chef kisses, for a gay man to watch this... Y'all did it yes. There's no awkward representation, there are no stereotypes, I mean, maybe some times, but nothing overwhelming. There's only one character that was not even in the series, and the sides characters didn't get the proper treatment, but I am not mad about it. Ugh whoever wrote this, yes you did that. The family issues, well addressed, the consent always WELL FUCKING ADDRESSED YES. Nubsib deceiving Gene, WELL ADDRESSED, YES. Even the sexy moments, those were well written, although, i felt like I had no right to be watching, that's when you know there's chemistry and good writing.
Alongside "Manner of Death", this bl didn't get me dizzy. Finally, a proper conversation without switching shots, we love to see it. Up was game on this, he is a good actor and because of the direction, you can see how good he is. Kao too, I think this is an improvement for him. There are not shots that you feel like "why is he showing me that door, I want to see the facial expressions", there's just one ep. That I felt like some shots were out of place. Long shots properly used and overall great.... Rest of my review on my tumblr. myshyyangel

This one's getting filed away under "What Happened?"

Another one with a superb start that made me think I was going to have a new favourite but went off the rails. First five episodes were pretty stellar and then it gets messy. The pacing is off, it drags a lot, there are inconsistencies in the characters as well as from one scene to the next, the plot is okay but for added drama and angst, some of the characters' reactions are unreasonable and disproportionate. Don't have characters break down crying just to make it seem like it's sad when it's just... not that big of a deal?

In terms of talking about the BL industry, yes, it's great. You've got multiple talks of consent and a lot more which I think vastly explains the high ratings despite the fact that it's kind of a mess.

However, I really did love Gene and Nubsib. Up and Kao's chemistry is pretty unreal. I had very different expectations of Nubsib, turns out he's the cutest of the cuties! Gene is the type of characters that I love and he's also super cute so there's that. Out of all the couples I discovered this year, they're easily nearing the top.

With Tum and Tiffy, I thought, finally a straight side couple I adore! But then their first drama is fairly silly (although I will admit I understand they're trying to break stereotypes and that's great, however it was way too long) and then the second one, once again, I just straight up didn't understand the big deal... and suddenly everything's better but literally nothing happened or changed?

In terms of acting, it's pretty good. I really loved Up, Ken, and Kao; Bruce not so much.

The ending? Too long. The first of the three scenes is very cute but it should have stopped there. At some point I was like ok is this ending today or...?

Overall, I'm pretty sad. I was super excited about that one but after the first five episodes, they lost me a bit. Anyway, I hope to see more of Up, he's a highlight of the series for sure.

it's over, finally

i'd be honest, i started this drama because i thought it would be kinda cute, fun and beautiful story but after few episodes i continued watching it only for actors.
story wasn't that good and most of the scenes gave me major cringe feeling. some scenes were moving way too slow and that was kinda boring and that's why i skipped majority of these scenes. just because story became really dramatic i was expecting more dramatic and emotional ending, especially when sib and gene met but it was meh. gene was like 'eh, whatever'.
cinematography and coloring is good and aesthetically pleasing, that is like the only best part of this drama i guess. i loved some characters, like tiffy and tum but some were annoying as hell, like aoey.
i wouldn't rewatch or recommend this drama to anyone, sorry :*

It didn't live up to the expectations.

I have to say the series was incredibly incoherent. It kept going from comical to very serious. There was a scene of Tum full-on pooping, but then there was also a super angsty coming out to homophobic parents scene. In episode nine, they made this weird montage of the entirety of Gene and Nubsib's families crying. It went on for way too long. The episodes were either really interesting or pretty boring. It was just such a gamble.

Considering this BL was supposed to call out toxic shippers, it wasn't really until episode eleven that came into play. I was so excited about the whole exposing the BL universe. Sadly, I wasn't sure if they were mocking or encouraging the exact thing they were against. An example would be the first episode where they over-sexualized a guy who was auditioning. To me, it didn't feel ironic. Nubsib was also seen many times without a shirt on. It just felt a little hypocritical. Honestly, they really focused a lot on Nubsib's looks. As if it was his only trait.

Anyway, about episode eleven. Is it that hard to distinguish between reality and acting? Some people really think they have a say in other's business. How dare they? Both the company and the fans. Tum's sister was just afwul. She really was selfish and only thought about money. Of course, Nubsib would choose Gene over his career, as he should. Nothing mattered more than Gene. She seriously had the audacity to say, "Do you have to terminate your contract, just for a boyfriend?" Yes. Yes, he did. All I can say is I was disappointed by the cliche cursed episode eleven where the couple breaks up. Is there no other way to make a series interesting?

So, Gene's friends. Could we even really call them that? Why would you ever question or assume someone's sexuality, especially to their face? Why do you care? The entire conversation was gross. None of his friends said anything substantial. Everything they said seemed as if they were making fun of him. At least Gene stood up for himself. That's what I liked the most about him. He rarely would let someone degrade or control him.

My favorite thing about this series was the portrayal of consent. Nubsib was so considerate, and he didn't waver even once. When Gene was drunk, he didn't even consider doing anything to Gene he might regret or forget the next day. Thank you, Nubsib.

A thing I found peculiar was the episode about them as kids. It was shot so wrong. I really don't want to sound weird, but I truly felt like they were romantically shooting some of their scenes. That scene where Gene protected Nubsib is a great example. Keep in mind that at that time, they were five years apart. So Gene was around eleven, and Nubsib was around six. I guess they clarified later on that it was only Nubsib who had feelings for Gene. I mean, Gene said some things that indicated he didn't feel the same. But then why did they have to include the fact that Gene's dad thought they were too close to be just friends? They weren't doing anything out of the ordinary. That episode made me feel weird.

Up, Nu and Bruce were really good in their roles. The others were by no means bad. Kao sometimes felt a bit stiff, but maybe that was just his character.

Lastly, the ending. I honestly wasn't satisfied. It was pretty boring. They didn't clarify the things that I was curious about. For example, what happened to Aoey and Saymork? What was the deal with Jap and Nueng? Instead, they gave us this weird roleplay situation that went on for too long. Also, Gene reminiscing on their childhood. So basically flashbacks. It just seemed so dragged out, as if they had run out of ideas. I don't know what the scene after the credits was supposed to mean. I was just confused.

Gene & Nubsib:

Sure Gene was quite a moody person. I definitely thought people were too hard on his characters, though. He was just very introverted and valued privacy. I can relate to that a lot. I can't even count the number of times someone thought I was ignoring them and being rude when I was just shy. So it saddened me to see people going in on him for that. Maybe Gene did take it the extra mile sometimes, but he was still a kindhearted person. I had hoped he would put his guard down a little around Nubsib, especially after they started dating. It was a little tiresome that Gene constantly avoided Nubsib's attempts to be intimate with him although they were together. It wasn't like he didn't want to be intimate with Nubsib. They just seemed to think he had to be grumpy almost all the time. When Gene wasn't grumpy, though, he was the cutest thing. I just wanted to see more of that side of him. Gene utterly disappointed me in episode eleven. Deciding what Nusib should do about his career/future is not caring about him. Caring would be letting HIM decide. Nubsib begged him to stay, and he still let other people influence their relationship. Nubsib was a little creepy at first. I can admit that. He totally came through throughout the series, though. Like I wrote earlier, he really treasured Gene. He treated him so well. I also somewhat could understand why he withheld the truth from Gene. Gene probably would have treated him as just a brother if he knew. My only real complaint about Nubsib was those times when he, instead of explaining to diffuse a situation, would stare and say nothing. It made no sense. It was as if he purposefully wanted to make the situation worse. Anyway, they had great chemistry. They weren't awkward. They're probably one of the BL couples with the most amount of kisses, good ones at that. Their sexy scenes weren't cringey or uncomfortable to watch either. I also liked how they were there to comfort and reassure each other. Nubsib never fooled around when it came to his feelings for Gene. I greatly appreciated that.

Aoey & Saymork:

There were no excuses for Aoey's behavior. The man was evil, selfish, and manipulative. No matter what he had gone through, he still made his own decisions. Sure, his dad was homophobic, his mom was an enabler, and his sister didn't care bout him either. Still, you don't have to be a product of your environment. His whole scheme to get together with Gene was fucked up. Just the amount of manipulation that went into that was insane. He gave me such serial killer vibes. That scene where he lured Gene out to the bar made me genuinely scared for Gene's wellbeing. He essentially harassed Gene in that same scene. Afterward, he even pretended to have drugged Nubsib. What the fuck? Why would you joke about that? The live stream he did to explain the situation regarding Nubsib and Gene was so calculated. He made himself look good and like a victim. Sure, he apologized later, but did he really not know what he was doing? Aoey and Saymork's relationship seemed complicated. They kissed at the family dinner, and then we didn't see them much together after that. That was until the scene at the bar. Aoey kept complaining that no one cared about him. What he really meant was that the people he wanted to care about him didn't, or at least not to the extent he wanted. Saymork cared about him, but that wasn't good enough for him. Saymork was quite vague in expressing his feelings, to be fair. Also, he definitely shouldn't have colluded with Aoey's sister. I also felt like they didn't give Aoey a proper ending. It didn't seem finished.

Tum & Tiffy:

Ah yes, the seemingly mandatory straight couple in some BL's. Honestly, at first, I didn't mind their presence. Tiffy progressively got worse and worse, though. Tiffy told Tum about her previous experiences with love. Essentially saying that she was pansexual. Then she went on to reject Tum because she was convinced he was gay. We love LGBTQ+ members who think it's okay to decide other's sexual attractions. No seriously. Why did she think that? He had finally built up the courage to tell her how he felt, just to be slapped in the face with such an offensive remark. She really told him to stop playing with her feelings when he never did. That made Tiffy completely unlikeable to me. He kept on trying to tell her he wasn't kidding, and she would not budge. For some reason, what convinced her was Tum's rap about how he felt about her. God, I felt such second-hand embarrassment. I didn't understand why Tiffy blamed Tum for what happened with Nubsib and Gene. Honestly, her behavior was nasty. She broke up with Tum without hesitation. Well, at least they got back together in the end. Tum did deserve better, though.

Gene's parents:

I got these weird vibes from Gene's mom. She was seemingly kind, but some of the things she said were off. She kept defending Gene's dad when he was completely out of line. I don't appreciate when the wives protect their homophobic husbands. That is enabling. In the whole family dinner thing, she had a part in it too. She and Nubsib's s mom were being very ignorant. The things they said weren't helping. It was comparable to Gene's outing with his friends. Gene's dad, I could slightly sympathize with. Having internalized homophobia is hard, but how dare he take it out on his son. He should've known better. At least he came to his senses. I didn't like him asking Gene if he truly loved Nubsib, though. Who allowed him to doubt Gene's love? You could say that he was just worried about Gene, but I have personally never witnessed someone questioning straight love like that.

Nubsib's parents:

They were the worst. I have never understood the whole reputation thing. Is it really more important than your child's happiness? One person in your family being gay would ruin your entire business? That's... sad. Then there was the scene where Nubsib's parents discussed how to handle the situation. For some reason, they added this ominous music. I almost thought they were going to get rid of him or something. But no, they were planning to apply for a parents-of-the-year award for doing the bare minimum. By that, I mean they were planning to not precisely accept but allow Nubsib his happiness, and they were really proud of it too. I can't deal with people who look so proud of themselves because they allow someone to be gay/not straight. As if your opinion matters.

Hin:

I didn't understand his part in all of this. He just came and went. Sometimes we wouldn't see him for multiple episodes, and frankly, that made me forget about him. His entire reason for existing was to become an author. Throughout the series, he kept asking everyone to read his work. Gene always had to help him out. I did feel slightly bad for him. He seemed to be going through a lot. I was happy to see him succeed, though. Other than that, he was also showing interest in Nubsib. I genuinely couldn't tell whether he was kidding or not. I mean, he still showed interest even after Gene started dating Nubsib. I wanted him to get someone too.

Bua:

She was gross. She constantly forced Gene to write NSFW scenes, as if that's what makes a good BL. She also kept disregarding Hin's work no matter how hard he tried, for no reason. It would take her literally a few minutes to read a bit of his work. She was just very entitled. She couldn't even apologize to Gene by herself.

Fanservice, begone!

Overall, I enjoyed Lovely Writer, although I think it could have been even better. Here are my pros and cons:

PROS:

UNIQUE STORY. Along with Call It What You Want, Lovely Writer exposes some of the not-so-nice, behind the scenes events of a BL series. So kudos to LW for bringing this out in the open.

ACTORS. Up and Kao did a good job portraying the main couple, but the real star of the series was Bruce (Aey), who gave a high-powered performance as a young man who needed psychiatric help. Supporting actors played their roles well.

CONS:

AGE OF GENE/NUBSIB. So Gene is supposed to be six years older than Nubsib. Sorry, not buying it. Nubsib actually looks older than Gene (and he is, by three months).

GENE/NUBSIB BACKSTORY. That whole childhood thing was just lame and even a little creepy.

THE END OF THE FINALE. Yuck. All that boring Prince Charming/Romeo & Juliet garbage could have been replaced with something relevant, such as a scene where Nubsib got out of his contract, despite the company wanting him to stay on with Aey. Would have loved to have seen that. And the very end, when we find out it was all fiction, was very disappointing for me.

MOHK. The actor was fine and pretty to look at. But they went nowhere with his character, when it appeared there was some connection with Aey/Mohk. So then, why was he even there to begin with?

TIFFY. She started out as kind of cool, then just turned into the beyotch of the century, the way she treated Tum, with homophobic slurs and all. And, despite Aey being a complete mess, the way Tiffy dumped him as her client was unprofessional.

But, despite weaknesses in the story and character development, I'm giving it 8.5 for dealing with an important topic.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.... 8, 9, 10 and kiss !!!!

Right from the beginning... It clicked to not only me .. but many viewers that this bl is going to be no ordinary one... And right from the first scene... It delivered in spades...

I would say... If you are looking for a realistic bl with all the sweet moments, tough times, challening situations and a whole load of fluttering GENUINE MOMENTS ...
THIS IS THE SHOW FOR YOU.....!!!

The realism and emotion into every scene is best experienced by watching this series...
The efforts taken by all the cast, the crew and all the producers definitely show in what is a near perfect series...

Without putting in any spoilers... I would definitely say that this is a series that you should never miss and watch it all at he first given opportunity...

Kao, Up, Bruce, Ken, Kenji, Zoro and all of the cast members have together made this one of if not my personal favourite out of all bl's I have seen till date .. infact this is up there in my top 3 series of all time... Ofcourse sharing it with ITSAY and recently ATOTS

So without taking any further time...
I would say... Count from 1 to 10 and give this series' the love it deserves....

I personally can't wait for its special EPs or Season 2... Whatever is to come...
Can't wait to see more of Kao and Up... THEY DID IT JUSTICE!!

Highly recommended series!!!

Failure to Launch

How to describe this drama… this was one part fluff, one part serious and one part SFX and poop jokes. When I complained about the SFX punctuating every conversation, every serious topic I was told “its satire don’t expect it to set a serious tone”. But then they hit you with heavy duty stuff about coming out, family struggles, relationship insecurities and in between they fill you up with fluff and a blatant display of product placement. The entire way I didn’t know what gage I should set my emotions to.

As you read below you’ll see that I didn’t hate all of it. There were actually decent plot lines, interesting character developments and genuine scenes in there that I have liked but that only magnified its week points and made it glaringly evident how much the drama ultimately failed to fully utilize its potential.

Kao is the Thai version of “Your Oppa can’t act”. Okay, he’s not completely terrible but his acting is not smooth and his dialogue delivery comes off robotic. He wasn’t always able to create that connection between his character and the audience. His character comes off unpleasantly aggressive at times, territorial/controlling and also sweet and sincere. I’ll be honest, he isn’t the kind of character that will leave any lasting impression on me.

Up’s acting and his character Gene were the selling point for me. He was the perfect amount of reserved, awkward, antisocial and insecure without coming off as weird. Gene is shown as he deals with the pressures of an overstepping book agent, a new awakened desires, and lingering insecurities as he is shoved into new and unfamiliar environment in both work and social life. The confrontation between Gene and his family has to be one of the most memorable part of the drama for me. Whether its Gene’s defiant stand, the protective brother, the mediating mother or the hard on the outside soft on the inside father, the entire thing was set for maximum emotional impact and it delivered.

Aey a character damaged by both family and love; shows the self-destructive nature some have when they feel hurt and betrayed. Like either the world delivers what it owes him for his pain. or its scorch earth to everything and everyone so they can join him in his hell . The irony of someone who craves attention, validation, acceptance and love from everyone and anyone but alienates, manipulates and burn everything he touches. Although, ON SIGHT, I’d come at this guy with a can of gorilla glue spray, I’m glad that the drama didn’t feed us some “love overcomes all” BS with him. Not everyone can be redeemed nor want to be saved. Not everyone’s pain can be eased/erased nor can their wounds be healed. Some stay angry and hurt and twisted to the end.

Tiffy/Tum were the cute second couple everyone roots for. Not a lot that could have been were explored with them, so in the end I felt neither one way or another.

I had a decent (okay, slightly higher than decent) expectation for this drama before it started airing, but it didn’t end up delivering for me. It actually upsets me when I think about scenes like the one with Gene and his family, his conversation with his father, Aey’s relationship with his family, the issues related to BL industry and fandom and how much more this drama could have been if it hadn’t half-assed it.

If I were to be honest, this is more of a 6.5 for me but I’m giving it a 7 for Up’s acting and the memorable scenes.

A BL show that explicit the inappropriate norms that typically romanticized by many

I’m really excited watching this one, new and fresh BL story with overloading visuals of the main character. The first episode got me already, I love how they highlighted that sexual harassment for the sake of a scene in the series isn’t romantic at all. A big slap to the most Thai BL shows nowadays. Aside from this, the show delivers plenty of inappropriate norms of the BL industry which were romanticized by many. Obviously, the show main lesson is to let obsessive fans to understood that the actors have their own private life. The drama also delivers the importance of consent. The drunk Gene scene is too lovely, Nubsib didn’t took advantage of it and even stop Gene for his kissing attempts. Consent King Nubsib

One of my favorite scene is when Gene attended a mini reunion party with his university friends. The way his friends push him to open up about his gender is too much, it was annoying to watch. But Tum’s dialogue is so heartwarming to hear, “Let other people decide whether they willingly talk about their personal lives or not, being a friend means that you have to understand him. Opening up your personal life is not easy for everyone. It is not okay to pressure someone to come out.” I’m so touched with the well written script.

Another common issue presented in the show is when a gay auditioned as one of the cast for Bad Engineer the series. Producers prefer to cast straight man over gays because it was the popular way of getting the viewers attracted to the show, which I found reasonable but uncomfortable. As I observed, if a BL actor suddenly announced that he has a real life girlfriend, fans feels sad and angry. Most on-screen couple didn’t end up getting together in real life and fans have to accept that even though it is a very hard one to admit.

For Tum and Kitty story, I liked how they showcase the gender stereotyping.

The plot twist is what you called a real plot twist. Never in my mind crossed the idea that Gene’s father used to date a guy before and the reason why he is against to Gene dating a man too. Also, Aoey being in love with Gene and not Nubsib. It is really so unexpected that spice up the story and make it more unique than others. To add, I really feel pressure during the family confrontation scene, it was such an intense one.

On terms of acting, Kao and Up slay their roles, natural and convincing. Nubsib’s flirty acts towards his love is so sexy! Wherein, on the other hand, Gene is such a lovely introverted writer. The chemistry of both of them is so great that I always tend to take screenshots every shared scene of them together. This is one of the shows that I really enjoy watching their kissing scenes over and over again. Such a lovely, sexy, intense, hot, passionate and seducing kiss ever. I was so shocked for an early kissing scene on episode 2 and goes on every episode. They tasted each other lips for a hundred times hahaha. Also, it was so cute to witness how adorable the two of them together. Every time Nubsib pinch Gene’s soft pair of cheeks, that was so much sweetness.

The one who portrays Saymork is bad at acting I swear, same with Aeoy’s family member. I didn’t like the family scenes at all, plain and boring. Not to mention the overreacted kissing scene of Aeoy and Mork hahaha I literally laughed while watching it. No matter how good the story is, if the acting isn’t really that great, the series itself is too affected. The reason why I rated it 9.5 instead of 10. Contributed to the -5 of my rating is the slow paced and boring first part of the last episode. The spark of the show loses at that time. The ending scene is too cute specially when I found out that the writer of the novel has a special appearance in the story that she wrote.

The production team were excellent. The series showcase cute cinematography and I also liked the camera angles specially when the two cast share an intimate scene together. It also has such a pleasing and heartbreaking OSTs ever. From happily grooving with Gavin’s “One to Ten” to being emotionally sad from listening to PCHY’s “Don’t Turn the Page” cause the lyrics are so beautiful and painful. But sometimes the background music is too exaggerated, specially the poop toilet scene of Tum :(

Overall, indeed, LOVELY WRITER is such a lovely series!!

Why couldn't I love you like the majority of the viewers!!!

I went into this series, trying my utmost best to love it as it was being hyped so much here as well as on Twitter. But for some reason- I just couldn't. I tried. I really did try with this series as I keep seeing episode [insert episode number here] is the best episode every week. And I just wasn't feeling it so I had to put this series on hold after watching up to episode four. I then came back and tried to binge watch episodes five to twelve. But even that took longer than I thought it would. But I have finally finished it!

Story-8/10
I am giving this series an 8 due to the fact that it is not your typical BL. It shows the toxic side of the industry theought the fans as well as the company. The reason why I cannot give higher than an 8 is due to the fact that I felt I wasn't emotionally attached to the series.

I was watching the series and just...nothing. The only time I felt a form of emotion was in the last episode at 50 minutes (I think) when Nubsib and Gene got back together. Otherwise than that, I felt norhing. Also, I felt that the supporting characters were not developed properly, especially Aoey. I also felt more sad for Aoey than any of the other characters in this series, cause of what he went through. Yeah, he's a d#$k, but like the ending that he got, I felt that he didn't deserve it.

Also, I felt that the episodes seemed a bit too long and draggy. Like some parts were good. But some parts I really don't see the need for it.

Acting/Cast-7.5/10
I was originally going to give an 8. However, the last two episodes just made me like meh, so I am giving a 7.5.

Music-7.5/10
The damn OST is loie a bloody worm song. It's annoying as well as catchy. The other songs were okay too. So for that I will give a 7.5.

Rewatch Valu-4.5/10
I'm sorry. I felt that I took too long to finish this series and because of that I don't think that I need to watch it again.

Overall-7/10
As I stated before, I really did try with this series. I guess it wasn't for me in the end.

Eh, not bad but not great either

I am not sure why the reviews for this series are incredibly high (?) I had very high expectations but ended up disappointed with the plot. It was rushed and made no sense (especially the ending, it seemed like fan service). As a watcher, I couldn't care less for the side characters as they didn't enchant the plot in any way. It felt like they were dragging the show time with those different stories. I skipped so many parts of this series that I only genuinely enjoyed a few aspects of the show. Many people preach this drama as it shows the BL industry's realistic sides, but it is honestly just shallow, and the story went NOTHING in-depth about how it is. Overall, it's a one-time watch for me. Just don't have high expectations, it's not THAT great, but it is still watchable.

The Most Critical Series

First i started the series because of the male lead Kao, who i know from uwma series and i felt those times, he could not show himself as much as he could. so i was curious about is there any changes in express himself. The difference shocked me. For me, Kao Noppakao found himself in this series with Up who is the other lead. Up is also a wonderful actor and person. Altough there is some rumor about his relationship, he suits this series so much. The series critisize everything in this sector. The 'romantic' harrastment scenes, 'the bad guys' and 'inncocent other who fall in love with the bad guy and the other issue that we all know about. They handle it soooo good. They show the audience entertainment sector in both ways. From their side and fan's side. How they ruin everything and how worse that it could be. Seriously, watch the series and you will understand what i talking about.

IF YOU ARE A BL SERIES LOVER ....DON'T MISSED THIS!!!!

Another new taste of BL Series, coming from Manner of Death, I think the fact that they are both BL Stories, they tackle different issue yet very convincing and relevant now a days. I am not new with Kao since I watched him in Until We Meet Again but I love Up Poompat here (Gene). His character and personality fits Him well. A good looking too. There acting were so natural and very realistic. But the reason why I love this series are: The story doesn't only deal with how the BL Entertainment World is evolving, I think it is more of a love story that was developed with full respect and loyalty. The Characters and love story of Gene and Nubsib has a similarities with Arthit and Kongpob in Sotus but Lovely Writer tackles a more serious issue and a more mature scenes for Gene and Nubsib. I salute the Writer . The Series delivers well both the Values and moral lessons it conveys to the viewers. The Director did good job in filming the whole series specially the Love Scenes. The Kissing Scenes were NO JOKE. HOT, INTIMATE but NOT AWKWARD to watch even the beginners. Im done Episode 10, I just watch the steal shots and photos for the next episode. Episode11 is a parting mode episode but I am already expecting a HAPPY ENDING on this Series...What I am hoping is a Happy Beginning for SEASON 2..ha ha ha
