Mat Huajai Yai Sup Tar (2022)

a community, and adorable couple

I think the writer wanted to play on certain audience misconceptions - real life judgment in a scripted environment. That made some people uncomfortable, some militant, and nulled some fans preconceived notions. Just because someone has played a gay person, or is a gay person in real life. Has mannerisms, or a job you believe are stereotypical, neither of which denotes character (or real life) sexual preference. But, just like the characters in this drama that misunderstood the male lead's orientation. All characters you are watching and their mannerisms are scripted, and not the actor that plays that part. That being said.

"You Are My Make Up Artist" is a romantic comedy series, with a main couple you could watch make cute faces at each other for an entire episode and it would be enough. But, even with that going for it, there are story issues. With a rocky beginning, and a writer that wanted to hit their audience over the head with teaching moments - known as misunderstandings. They had reasons; Highlighting the treatment of the LGBTQ community in Thailand. Drawing attention to the treatment of the vulnerable as second class citizens. While, emphasizing truth and forgiveness between individuals. And, if you can accept that, and a really adorable couple. With, an ending other dramas only dream of. I can recommend it.

Toxic but fun?

I feel like in order to like this lakorn, the planets have to align a certain way:
1. You don’t mind the age gap nor the spoiled FL.
2. You don’t take seriously all the toxicity (or at least try to) That includes all the stereotyping of straight and gay men.
3. You feel the chemistry between the leads.

The things easily likeable about ‘You are my make up artist’:
- Gulf looks very handsome. VERY...VERY.
- If you don’t take this lakorn seriously, you will laugh at the level of craziness of these characters.
- If you feel the chemistry, you will love the leads' sweet moments together.

*The villain is triggering. The actor portraying them did too well of a job. Episode 5 was the most triggering for me. If I ever rewatch it, I might skip that episode all together.
