Must watch

Good day, I must say this is one of the best series I've watch. Well you should watch Sotus first to find out how it all started. I love the phasing of the story it was very detailed this two series will let you go back to your high school life. I'm so touched and did a lot of reminiscing while watching this series. Also a lot of lessons in real life that will made us realized. It's always not too late. I love the story because it all started in high school up until the main characters had a job and how the other character cope up to another and how they handle their relationship while the other is year ahead. There are some small scenes that will touched your heart. Sometimes small things are that really matters most. In Sotus you might be bored at the first episode but give it a shot it's worth it.

I notice a lot of people prefer the first season. I have to say I like this season a lot more. While I was disappointed with the sotus hazing aspect of the story, the interesting take on the workplace was surprisingly fun to watch. If you go in expecting to see familiar faces such as kongpop's gang and the former hazers, you won't be happy . Again, my biggest problem was the lack of romance between Arthit and Kongpop. For a couple together for years it felt like they were strangers. It can be argued that the tension of hiding is the cause but no. For whatever reason, at least to me. No sparks fly between the leads. It felt like I was watching a painting get together not maintain a relationship. They do warm up slightly by the end. The side pairings, particularly Tew and Dae were well executed and were what kept me invested. I do think the story suffered some transitional elements as time jumped like lightening. The season was an improvement for me and could honestly serve as a stand alone if no one wants to bother watching the original.

BETTER THAN S1

story - a lot happened compared to the first season. althought the beginning can be a litle bit draggy

acting/cast - still the same the actor's actions looked realistic so it's fine. nothing mind blowing though.

music - the important scenes used a variety of songs compared to the last series, so that's good.

rewatch value - as a whole season, this is more rewatchable than s1 because a lot happened compared to the first one. while if ur gonna watch certain lovey-dovey scenes, i am not so sure because this season had more serious tone than the last one. it's just based on what ur gonna rewatch.

Sotus s stands out from the other series because of how mature the characters are. The chemistry between Kongpob and Arthit is amazing. I also liked how not all female characters were vilified, as some are good characters which the audience can support and love. This season is bittersweet and nostalgic because it incorporates flashbacks of season 1, reminding us of the good times. Sotus s portrays how school and real life are not the same, and how the characters struggle with the changes. It is this transition whcih makes this season so emotional and realistic. Both Arthit and Kongpob's personal growth and internal struggles are portrayed very well. The cinematography is also beautiful.

A great continuation of the series. Tbh a little frustrating at times, because of the realistic real-world work-place problem (dmn you John). I kept expecting for Arthit to finally had enough and assert himself, but I guess he did the big gesture on the important thing.
Too bad Wad doesn't appear; I find Day a little too stubborn to my liking.

The biggest thing I'm disappointed about is the intimacy; Arthit is a little too shy, it seems, even though they have been together for 2-3 years. Idk, I just wanted more of the small things: a little peck, little touches.
Still, they both are cute, and Kongpob is really adorable

I wonder how i missd this before

I really love this drama.. actually these two days i lived in it... but i love 1st one more.. actually two actors chemistry is too good and thire acting also good but sadness is writer not developed thire relationship.. it could be soo much better if they had more cuddling seen at least one back hug 😐.. no back hug, no cheak kissing at least they should hve hold hands more... i think writer dont like cute romance 😐 but actors manage hold us with thire acting and expressions..

Actually i love arthit at first he looks like ememotionless rude man but look at now somtimes he looks like stubborn girl n sometimes like little kid.. and i really love his shyness face and the way he roll his eyes 🤩🤩

And suprizingly i know n fammilier with lot of actors and actresses in this drama. They are play supporting rolls n some of them now acting main leads also ❤️
Actully overall it is cool drama i wonder how i missed it before ❤️❤️

This was aired 6 years ago but this is still better than most of Thai BL's after it.

During my SOTUS day, I mentioned that the hazing plots made the series stronger. In comparison to SOTUS S, all plots (hazing, romantic relationship and work) are very commendable. The hazing in SOTUS S is much better in every aspect. Their relationship far exceeds my expectation. The work-related issues are what I like the most. In reality, the issues are quite relatable. I really appreciate the valuable lessons that they are trying to show us. Well, if you don't notice it, I saw it clearly.

Let me talk about the characters. Kong, since SOTUS, he's that kind of person whose personality is truly remarkable. He knows what he really wants. His actions are always genuine. On the other hand, Arthit always gets on my nerve. But luckily, although his actions come with regret, he's good at getting back at the right place and at the perfect time. The side characters are fairly balanced and well-thought. Just to mention, Cherry is the only gay so far in Thai BL that I find admiring and not annoying. The actor who played his role is quite good actually. I've seen him first at 2gether series. The only misstep here is Durian's nosy behavior. I don't mind John because he got his own karma. But Durian? Who's this unreasonable person that decided the Human Resource Manager to be the nosiest employee? That was such a reckless move and I hate it.

Thanks to Bonus (the red lovely Betta), I don't mind the product placements. I have lots of Bettas at home and I love how they show Bonus and make me love my Bettas more.

If you watched SOTUS, this is a must-watch.

If you haven't watched SOTUS, watch it so you can enjoy this series.

If you've read my review for SOTUS, you will see that I absolutely was not a fan. I thought it was incredibly overhyped, as well as just minimally produced and uneventful. However, I'm glad that Krist and Singto's chemistry was strong enough through the rough writing that I was still interested in following their journey because SOTUS S delivered in every way that SOTUS didn't.

I always knew that I liked Krist and Singto's chemistry together but I wasn't fully convinced of Kongpop and Arthit's relationship by the end of SOTUS. It felt underdeveloped. But with SOTUS S, we get to see them together. I loved watching them discreetly navigate their relationship in a professional setting. I loved the nuanced development of Arthit slowly beginning to show affection towards Kongpop publicly. It began from the very start and finished on an incredibly sweet end. It even makes me willing to overlook a couple scenes where Kongpop and Arthit interacted as a new couple (a couple that hasn't been dating for 2 years; a couple that are still learning someone).

The 2nd season improved immensely on production also. The sound-mixing was so much better. The color correction was a lot better AND consistent. But with that, I have to mention that the best thing that came out of the 1st season was that the female characters were written with personalities and felt like an important part of the show. Once the focus of SOTUS S shifts completely to Arthit's work environment, the female cast consists of Arthit's colleagues. While I can say that they don't have interchangeable personalities, I'm afraid I can't find much else positive to say about them. But, to be fair, I didn't really care for any of the supporting cast. I would have much rather had side plots involving the college seniors, though I can understand how following so many different internships wouldn't be smart. Which is why, objectively, I can't fault the writing. The least we could have gotten was some M/May development after seeing the entire setup for it in the previous season. The lack of payoff is unsettling.

Overall, I can see now why SOTUS is so hyped. Even though I didn't enjoy the first season much, I can even understand how it can seem somewhat of enjoyable on a rewatch when you have complete knowledge of Kongpop and Arthit's journey.

A slow start ultimately leads to a satisfying conclusion for this couple

*Will touch on SOTUS The Series in this review*

When I first started watching this I thought I found myself in a slump as I felt disinterested in watching. As I continued to watch I realized I wasn't in a slump, only that the first few episodes never really showed any purpose or a driving force to progress the series forward. When you look at the first series, you understand that the story revolves around the main couple, whether theyʻll get together, as well as trying to understand what the purpose of the SOTUS system is. All that is set-up from the beginning and its clear. But with SOTUS S, it's not as clear what the main storyline is supposed to be. The first five episodes or so act as a set-up to get the main characters together in one place so that the tension and "story" could actually build. I use "story" in quotations because there didn't seem to be one main story the series tried to follow. There seemed to be small mini stories that drove the plot along, which is why my rating of story is a little lower, it just seemed disjointed.

However, once you get through the first few episodes, and the characters start to share the same space, thats when things get interesting. Iʻm glad they gave us Special Scenes after each episode, I donʻt know if I would have made it to the end with out them. They tantalized me enough to get them to continue. Iʻm also glad they introduced other side couples to keep my interest as well, although I am disappointed that they never really got a gratifying conclusion, only implying a certain end for those characters.

I think my main issue with this series while watching it was the fact that the main couple didnʻt act like a couple at all. I was so confused after the conclusion to SOTUS. It seemed that the relationship went back to being one-sided, which I was disappointed in. But after finishing this series I realized that this was a great companion series to the original. With SOTUS, we follow Kongpob on his emotional journey and his personal story to finding love. Whereas SOTUS S provides a story and emotional growth for Arthit, specifically in learning to accept himself and his love for Kongpob. The way I see it, SOTUS is the story of the how their love began, while SOTUS S is the continuation of the story after "Happily Ever After" and what obstacles need to be addressed in order to keep that relationship flourishing.

So although it is kind of uneven in its storytelling, ultimately SOTUS S serves as a great conclusion to the story of Kongpob and Arthit and builds on what was shown in the first series.

SIDE NOTE: TW; outing someones sexuality
Is outing of people a normal thing in Thailand because this happened in both series, in SOTUS a throw away line outed a side character, but to make it a major plot point in this series did not sit right with me.

SOTUS S: This series is much different and even more interesting, and in my opinion it should have been listed here separately, as it is on more accurate Asian servers (eg MyDramaList), IMDb, "our role model", falters in this regard. The flaw remains for me - the boys like each other, but without touching, sex, and even after several years of relationship, the boys do not live together, and when one of them persuades the other to go to him once in a while, they look at books on the bed. But otherwise a much more interesting story, more variety, finally school and idiotic orders of mentors to their freshmen are left behind. Refreshing for me was my "sweetheart" Yong (Guy Sivakorn Lertchuchot), whom I already know from Tonhon Chonlatee and 2gether.

short and simple

honestly not bad i was super bored all the way up to ep 8 but from there onwards it got better honestly the whole arthit being distant made me dislike it i thought it was because it was played by krist (we all know why id think this so lets not get into it) but ep 12-13 and some bonus scenes tell us that his character was written that way and this show isnt actually bad conflicts get solved pretty quickly the chemistry that was there wasnt bad singto thank u for carrying. the writing was okay i feel like this show does give a deeper meaning thats why a lot of people liked it.

now onto ep 9-13 thats when everything kind of came together i started to like arthit character a bit more the i love you scene was actually really beautiful i teared up a bit ep 13 was perfect it showed how affectionate arthit can be it was just him being scared of being out but now that he is he can loosen up more. i wish we got a gl side couple in this they hinted at s1 that one of that prae liked girls but it was radio silence during s2 and in the last ep we get to see the girlfriend as for m and may all i gotta say is run may run far away. as if the 2 side couples i liked the intern one but the other seemed meh to me since we didnt get to see any development but ig its cute. honestly idek but i did prefer s1 to s2 its enjoyable after ep 8 u just gotta hang in there. the ending is really cute aswell
overall its 7/7.5

worth watching if you loved Sotus

I found the first half of it a bit draggy & honestly I had no interest in the side plots or the office stuffs. I wanted the series to just focus on the main leads. It did got better as the series progressed & the later half of it had a really good storyline that made watching this series worthwhile.

For me it was an okayish watch & also I only watched Arthit & Kongpob scenes or scenes that affected their story. I didn't care about the rest of it but made sure that I had a gist of what was happening. So the scenes which didn't feature the main leads were mostly on fast forward or 2x mode.
