When the main couple is the least likeable one...

The plot is nothing special. It goes through all of the usual BL cliches, including the engineering students. Cliches are not always a bad thing, but they need to be done well, and they need to be good. Which I don’t think they were. I also feel like the pacing of the series was too slow and very repetitive.

I did like some of the couples. The acting was better in some parts and not so great in others. I was not really bothered by the fact that Mek was actually dubbed. I need to read the subtitles either way, so I didn’t have the time to stress about the fact that his mouth moves differently from what is spoken. I don’t know why some people are so extremely bothered by that.

Bohn & Duen: they are my least favorite couple of the series. Which is a shame, seeing they are the main couple. It started off cute, I really enjoyed their first meeting. I mean, we can’t blame Duen for punching the stranger sticking their face close to his sleeping self. I’d punch him too. But things went downhill afterwards. I hate how Bohn treated Duen most of the time. The whole thing with Bohn fake sulking to manipulate Duen was annoying. Even more so as it was done multiple times. Don’t even get me started on the jealousy. Communication? We don’t know what that is. And the whole who is top and who bottom episode? Disaster that shouldn’t have been made. It’s full of very negative portrayal of gay men, especially those that prefer to be the bottom.

Mek & Boss: friends to lovers, what else can we wish for? I actually like how their story developed; it didn’t seem too rushed. The line between friendship and love is hard to cross, especially if it may mean losing the other person completely. The amount of suffering I went through watching Mek keep quiet about his feelings, and even helping Boss prepare for his date… Those were some heavy scenes for sure.

Ram & King: Yes, just yes. I was worried about how things would go as King seemed to be trying to get close to Ram only because he found his weirdness interesting. I was happy it wasn’t just that. I think the two of them had the best chemistry of all the couples in the series. They were adorable together, from the start to the end. And while verbal communication was not something Ram enjoys very much, I really like how they took this as an opportunity for the two of them to grasp each other’s non-verbal communication much better. King really understood Ram, even if he didn't say anything. And Ram pulling and pushing King around to get him to do what he wanted was cute.

Thara & Frong: I think we can all see the sparks fly between the two of them from the first meeting. I found both interesting, and I like how “fate” seemed to keep bringing the two of them together, giving them plenty opportunities to drive each other crazy. Thara seems to be a bit slow when it comes to love, but can we blame him?

The ending was… meh. Kind of anticlimactic. A lot of things were left open and unfisnished, as they were planning for season 2. It’s been 3 years since the series aired and there has not been any confirmation. Which sucks because it means a lot is just left in the air. I wish we would have gotten a few more conclusions, at least semi-conclusions.
