A big fat lie!
The series begins with a big fat lie in just under 2 minutes of its first episode!
YES!
The protagonist claims that he doesn't have good grades, his financial situation is even worse, and he has no friends. And do you notice it? Where is the lie here?
Kiwi (Perawat Sangpotirat) looks good. And we can argue if everyone thinks he's good looking. But I do mean that you guys find him far above average handsome, right?
A little hair out of his forehead and he looks really good. Kiwi plays a loner, at least in the first two episodes. One who prefers to go down to the basement to laugh than to move to the dance floor dancing. You have to make him a little nerdy at the beginning. That's the principle of "Yo soy Betty, la fea (Original) - Ugly Betty"
But let's wait and see.
Good-looking people don't have to exert a lot of effort to get to know other people. It sort of falls into their laps.
So I think Kiwi is wrong in this assertion. OK.. i was a bit overdrama, to call it a "fat lie" ;) But i can say, he is lying to himself.
Besides the stereotype that good-looking people have it easier, Kiwi claims that rich people feel less alone (than he does). This is quietly contradicted by Pisaeng (Gawin Caskey). I'm curious to see if the screenwriters flesh this out a bit more.
The theme
If you're under 25, you won't have that feeling as clearly as those over 25. Everyone at some point asks themselves the question, if I had reacted differently at a certain point, what would my life have been like?
So it's likely to be a series that will also appeal to older viewers. It's a smart move.
The music
Often (too often), catchy pop tunes are woven into a series ad nauseum. People forget that good film music underscores the story and the plot. The feelings of an actor are excellently carried by good music.
The music of "Be My Favorite" is outstanding for a series. There is a real full-blooded musician at work here, who was able to fit well into the story. Perawat Sangpotirat is credited as the composer. Kudos if the lead also writes the score.
In any case, it's worth indulging in the music as well.
Conclusion...
At the moment it looks like a very exciting story.
I feel entertained and invited by the story to keep watching.

Edit Episode 4:
I love Perawat Sangpotirat more and more as an actor.
Unbelievable how well he plays and makes even mundane moments seem real and believable.
He plays a nerd, so he's the nerd, and when the nerd dances, all you want to do is run. And that from such a good musician. Well. So a real accomplishment to dance so unrhythmically....
Who wants to be with such a nerd? And what's new in his world? Unfortunately, the episodes are short and fly by each other.
Of course, one would like to intervene and say, do this or that. But that's exactly what makes a good series: that you'd prefer to take the protagonist and tell him how to behave. He played so convincingly that you take the role from him.
Also convincingly played Sarunchana Apisamaimongkol. A beautiful woman and so gifted in acting. I am sure we will see more of her.
Although Gawin Caskey has a very short role in this episode, I found him convincing. Dear camera, dear director. Give him more time. I find the camera work too fast here, this character needs more moments.
Justina Suvanvihok, your moment was when you sang. That was beautiful. I can see that you feel very comfortable in that moment and in that role. Your role comes a little bit too short.
Kirati Puangmalee's is way too long for that. Very good actor who plays the ass of the series. He is really the worst. Boring, nerdy and dumb. So congratulations for playing your role so wonderfully. Don't be sad, villains are unpopular characters in series. But we need them, because otherwise you don't notice the very beautiful so clearly. But in this episode, I find his role a bit too much.
For Thanaboon Kiatniran, it's time for him to come out of the Support Roles niche. Hey Talent Scouts. You missed someone excellent here. He will shine in a leading role.
Do you agree with me? Or do you think my points are lame? Then make me a friend and write to me. Or drop a comment, I'll be sure to reply. Have fun and all the best!
