Personal Opinions
I have been watching Chinese and Korean Dramas for a while but only recently got into Thai ones. I have watched 'TharnType', both seasons and 'Don't say no' before watching this so I know it could have impacted the way I watched this. However I do have some views on it.
Firstly (i don't know which was filmed first TharnType or this, but this was was out a year earlier) seeing different actors in the different series has always been a big turn off for me regarding dramas, and seeing the characters I saw in TharnType played by different actors threw me out of the experience a lot. In my opinion if you can't get the same actors then they should have cut the character out completely, especially as he wasn't a main part of the show. It just made it odd.
Secondly the main leads. Don't get me wrong i'm not talking about the actors, they were great, im talking about the characters. Pete was written too good for the majority of the show, the guy literally had no bottom line. With most people they get pushed around, beaten and hurt have some point where enough is enough, pete never had that which made him a bit unbelievable. Ae as well seemed to go from 'stranger' to 'straight friend' to 'jealous friend without a clue why' to 'maybe im gay' to 'I love you' in the blink of an eye.......the steps that took the guys from 1 - 10 where so quick it was almost not noticeable. Again the actors were great, it was just some of the choices for the characters that could have been improved for me.
Ae's friend and dorm mate pond was just annoying, the man seemed to have no self awareness whatsoever, although at times he seemed to see things others didn't. Some of the other characters where the same, going on the annoying side of the 'funny' spectrum.
The character Tin was just a bully, although one with a sad backstory. Although the two side couples of Tum/Tar and Kla?techno where absolutely toxic. One had an elder brother trying to force himself on him while another had a younger brother who openly took part in his assault. They could have made these storylines work if they had put time into them but it was almost like 'ok that happened now move on' with no follow up on the impact it would have had on the characters at all.
I would still re-watch the show (excluding episode 14) because over all the actors did a great job and it was well shot. I just personally think the characters could have used a bit more thought in certain areas, however it didn't detract too much from the pleasure of the show overall.
