Perfeito ♡

Ent primeiramente os atores...Eu já os seguia no instragram os principais do caso, fiquei feliz em ver eles nesse drama, eu gostei muito, tanto da história, da atuação dos atores, do próprio elenco, do humor, da produção, do romance e afins...Eu realmente gosto do humor tailandês é um humor que eu racho de rir, pode ter pessoas que n goste mas eu gosto muito, enfim cada um tem sua opinião :) Eu realmente amo quando tem esse dinamismo de casais, quando não tem só um casal na série, pois fica algo mais dinâmico ;) A química dos casais foi algo que eu sempre notei e acho q td mundo acaba notando e eu vi que os casais tinham uma química muito boa e esse foi tmb um dos motivos que eu gostei muito. Eu realmente recomendo esse dorama, vale muito a pena ^^

Fish upon the sky

Comecei essa série com uma expectativa alta, mas me decepcionei.
Primeira coisa: Na minha opinião o enredo do casal Mork e Pi seria mais interessante se não fosse tão óbvio que Mork era o amigo secreto que conversava e dava conselhos pelo telefone. Se ficasse uma dúvida sobre a identidade dele, daria um tom de mistério que faria a trama um pouco mais convidativa. No Ep 3, a cena do beijo até agora está me incomodando, pois não consegui entender a lógica do Pi completamente sóbrio se declarar e beijar alguém tendo certeza que era outra pessoa, e essa pessoa (Mork) receber a declaração que não era pra ele e se permitir beijar, sendo ele maduro o suficiente pra entender que isso deixaria Pi frustrado, não fez sentido.
Outra coisa que não gostei na construção do relacionamento entre Pi e Mork, foi o fato de que quando finalmente eles se acertaram, Pi querer continuou tratando mal o Mork, deixando o personagem como um verdadeiro pateta, se submetendo a ser mal-tratado de forma ridícula, com a desculpade não se achar suficiente para ele. Acredito que casos como esses existem, mas pra dar veracidade a esse contexto usassem um ator feio, pois o ator que faz o Pi é lindinho demais.
Um ponto positivo com certeza é o casal secundário. A fofura do Meen (inclusive me apaixonei por ele cantando a música de abertura da série) e a forma como foi construído o relacionamento dele com o Duean foi mais convincente que o casal principal. O Duean mentindo sobre o curso pra não parecer burro, e a comédia que foi o relacionamento entre os dois, com o Duean descobrindo os sentimentos e tentando fugir deles, foi a melhor parte da série.
No mais, boa atuação, ambientação praticamente toda na universidade e na casa do Pi, trilha sonora gostosinha, e o pesonagem Mork entrando para a lista dos maiores gados dos bl’s, e apesar dos furos eu recomendo a série com certeza.

This show is soooo adorable

Getting into this show I thought I wouldn’t like it. But from the first scene I was hook to the story line as well as the characters. Every actor played their part amazingly and made the show very special. The story between Pi and Mork is one of the cutest love stories I have ever seen. This show never failed to make me laugh. But there was also some serious moments that made me cry. Also the story between Duean and Meen is the most wholesome story and they both played their parts to their full potential. I really love every thing about this show and I am looking forward to watching it again.

PONDPHUWIN

I started this drama because I was pestered by my best friend, and did i love it? I absolutely adored it. This was my first Pond Phuwin Drama and I would say, they captured my heart in first episode as purely cute couple as Bookforce, firstkhao did when I saw 'A boss and a babe' and 'The eclipse' respectively.

The plot was good ngl but there could have been better development, I mean a socially awkward guy x popular guy and the awkward guy gets a crush on one other popular guy and it is doomed cause the other guy is just nice to everyone and never particularly interested.

The side story of Deuan and Meen is just so cute, the misunderstanding/deception about Deuan being a dentist student was so funny when they went on a field trip. BTW Neo can be shipped with a literal table lamp, he is so shippable (like mark but since he is not here, ignore)


The relationship are soooo healthyyyyyyyyyy......10/10 for it

Neither one or the other.

Thailand media is definitely leaning towards quantity rather than quality so, as expected, many of their dramas are falling into a copy-paste situation. This one is a clear example of that. Is it good, or is it bad? It depends on the person watching.

~ Story:
Here is the thing: it is not a bad story... if you're someone who's new in the genre and hasn't seen a lot of dramas from it. In my case, however, I found it quite repetitious due to the fact that I've already watched so many dramas with the same tropes to the point I am left unimpressed by what's happening in the story. Like I said: copy-paste situation. Nothing new, nothing unique, nothing special. Just your basic go-to story. But don't get me wrong, please, because I did find it to be one of those series you can sit back and relax with a cup of tea (or glass of wine, in my case) since it's a very simple plot that doesn't require you to pay attention to small details or anything of the sort. It was a nice little drama to spend a lazy weekend at home watching.

~ Cast:
Surprisingly, I don't have a lot of complaints about these actors. Although it was predictable acting, most of them did a decent job. Sometimes I wonder, though: Do they train all these actors in the same school? Because it's crazy how ALL of them (not just in this drama) act in the exact same way. That's what I mean with predictable. It's not bad, but it feels like they are following a book instead of coming up with their own individual acting. Very few actors step out of that box and, unfortunately, none of the actors here did that. Let's talk about some of them.

~ Pi: Decent. To be honest with you, from what I have seen, a lot of Thai actors are not really that good at acting comedy, so Phu was a little rough around the edges during those scenes. However, everything else was quite good. I am Latin American and the "Ugly Betty" story is very dear to my heart, so I now have a fondness towards this actor for acting a role inspired by this iconic and beloved Colombian character. Good chemistry with his partner, too.

~ Mork: A little better. Was I found successful about Pond is that his character was so serious that his comedy scenes were delivered better since it's something unexpected to come from a character that keeps his composure.

~ Duean: I am going to be biased here: I do not like this actor. Not because he is bad at acting, no, he's okay if okay to you means very predictable. But my problem lies in his voice. I absolutely HATE IT. He's one of those people I wish could shut up because his constant yelling is drilling into my ears giving me a headache. I had to endure it for the sake of his partner, but I wanted to skip every single scene he was speaking in.

~ Meen: Probably the most cliched character and ultimately one of my favorites. To be honest, he and Duean were both annoying, but Meen was on the cuter side making him more likeable than his partner.

~ Editing and Pacing:
Excellent. Everything was coherent and well put together. There's nothing really tricky about the plot and that helped the editing feel a lot more smoother and easy to follow.

On a side note: this is the first drama I've seen that doesn't have a beach or planting trees episode! Thank goodness cuz that was getting so tired.

Sis, this show has everything: Makeovers, hidden agendas, cyber bullying, moaning, a bitch you wanna slap, and balloons. I recommend it, specially if you're new in the genre and are looking for something simple and easy to follow.

Laughed the whole show!!

This is my second time watching this series, and it did not get boring! It was one of the best BLS I watched, considering that the first time, i was very new to the Thai TV environment. This was the second ever Thai bl I've watched(The first being Bad Buddy). The comedic scenes had me laughing. Every character was well portrayed.
Pi is very insecure about his looks and changes himself so he can impress Muang Nan. P'Phuwin portrayed Pi's insecurity very well and showed how it feels to be looked down on and only appreciated when favors are to be done. Mhok on the other hand is very social, popular, and center of the attention. But he was REALLY patient. The most patient and calm soul I've seen in a series?
The side ship was the biggest reason I was here for seconds. Duean x Meen. I love P'Neo Trai, so I was bound to love his ship. Duean was my ultimate favorite character. He was such a good brother! And a very good boyfriend to Meen as well. Duean is an idiot(in love, hehe...I'll stop) and is very loud, annoying, and has a hardcore outer personality. But deep within, he's sensitive and caring for the people he loves. Meen is a very nerdy boy who knows exactly what he wants. An A+ scholar, and an allrounder in studies. He's very innocent and naive but not to the point it annoys the shit out of you.

If you're into Rom-Coms, let me tell you, this show is right up your ally.

BL ON CRACK

I NEVER THOUGHT PHUWIN COULD ACT IN CRACK BL AHAHHAHAAH. Bruh let me tell you how much I love this series-.. THEY ARE LITERALLY THE BEST. IT'S SO FUNNY AND I COULDN'T HELP BUT TO LAUGH OUT LOUD EVERYTIME I WATCH KITTY GANG AHHAHAAH. I literally have no complain about this series because it just heals me. The fact that Phuwin took this role and went all out really caught me off guard. My first series for PondPhuwin is actually Never Let Me Go which is a very heavy series but this just HEALS ME. They are damn funny especially NEO. HAHAHAHAH. I feel that Duean character is Neo's in real life that helps him brings Duean alive.

The conflict in the series is legit and it doesnt feel rush to finish and I found it understandable that Pi's concern is about people's eyes on them. He actually doesnt mind being insult but he is worries that Mok got insult by other people for being with him. I found it sweet but at the same time, Pi need to love himself a bit more and ignore what people been telling him about his looks. I really like how Mok reassure Pi every time he doubt himself, the way he talk to Pi is very gentle, and he never stop trying to make Pi understand the situation.

WE ALL NEED MOK IN OUR LIFE. AHAHHAHAH

I understand other reviewers are so concern about the shippers but that is the reality, there will always be another ship sailing from the other ship ( ghost ship ) and there will always be shippers that don't know where to draw the line.

It's just a series. We have to take a lesson from it, please stop taking everything so damn serious.

But though, seriously, I wish Earth would make a cameo in this series. THAT WOULD BE PERFECT.

PS: If you are looking for a good BL series with 80% laughing scene, please go ahead and watch this series. It's perfect.

Manages to still be a fun ride despite multiple flaws

NO-SPOILER REVIEW

This series starts off with a promising, if cliché, premise, but it unfortunately struggles through the middle because of some issues around character motivations and storytelling. It manages to pull things together toward the end and the result is a fun and lighthearted series despite many frustrating parts along the way.

Pros
- Two relatively fresh leads that are cute and have good chemistry
- Unexpected charming side couple that keeps things interesting
- Surprisingly funny at times
- Tackles themes around insecurity and privacy in a way that isn't often done in similar dramas

Cons
- Character motivations weren't really developed well which made some characters and their feelings hard to believe
- The characters don't always act reasonably which can be extremely frustrating as a viewer
- The middle part of the series suffers from issues around storytelling overall but if you can pull through this, things do get better

Overall
- This can be an enjoyable series if you don't take it too seriously and just enjoy it as a comedy. There's a good enough balance of fun moments to counter the moments of frustration.
