GemFot deserve better
I'm sick of it. This is already the third BL with perfect cast and a perfect promise, from which something so terrible has turned out. Okay, maybe "terrible" is a bit of an exaggeration, but it definitely wasn't good. Genimi and Fourth are awesome. I love them as actors, I love their chemistry, I love their friendship, I love their projects so far, I love their interactions, I love their catch-up, I love how they support each other, but I'm not going to be less critical this time just because of the amazing actors, and honestly, I don't care this time whether someone scolds me in a hater or tells me that I should stick my opinion somewhere (because that happened with We are a Love sea).
I could extol the talent of the mentioned actors to the heavens and it still wouldn't be enough. As far as my information is correct, this series was written for them. Bought from Japan and modified for them to be exact. And that's exactly where the problem lies. They were originally supposed to play a supporting couple in 23.5, and I honestly think they would have starred there much more than here.
Thus, MLMU was not exactly bad. It was, but at the same time it wasn't. I'll try to explain. I can imagine how the series would look if Japanese production had it under its thumb. I have not yet seen or read the original version of Kieta hatsukoi or the manga with the same name, but I plan to do at least one of the above. I can't explain it, but Japan puts something into its production, thanks to which you already know at a glance that it is Japanese, and this is especially true for works based on manga. It was said in BTS that the Thai version will have both Thai and Japanese elements in it, which I was really looking forward to and was curious to see how it would turn out. Hah... So it didn't turn out well in my eyes. Again, I can imagine it could look good, but it doesn't.
Each episode contains about a million product placement ads, but I personally didn't mind that much. I got used to them over the years.
The story wasn't bad, but some... how would I call it?... elements, ruined the artistic experience. To the letter and to the letter. Some scenes had me melting like ice cream in the sun, but the scene was momentarily ruined by Atom's screams. On the contrary, it also happened that I was bored during the whole episode, but something happened towards the end, thanks to which I completely forgot about the previous 40 minutes. I experienced this, for example, in the episode where they were in the camp or where they started to figure out how they should treat each other in a relationship. And many others.
As I read the comments on MDL, I realize that I am not alone. I wanted to write a long review, but I guess I'm not going to get upset about it unnecessarily... It could have been good, it wasn't, Thailand should stop making remakes and focus on their own projects. Don't tell me they don't have enough to draw from.
Like this... The story itself wasn't really bad. It pointed to the typical problems of teenagers in love, which I liked, but I'm damn sure it could have been done differently and better. Some scenes could really be forgiven, but as for the emotional ones, they succeeded one hundred percent. For example, the one where Thap and Atom were tying ribbons or the one where Atom was mad because Thap was bitten by a snake... The first kiss, the second kiss... All of that was amazing, but I don't think it was the quality of the script, but the acting of the actors .
As for the side couple, Mudmee and Half stole my attention at times. The only thing that bothered me about them were Mudmee's friends, who I still think wanted to split them up, because otherwise she wouldn't have such kohlrabies pushed into her head.
Overall, it wasn't exactly bad, but it was also far from perfect. I haven't seen the Japanese version yet, but something tells me it's much better. I hope GemFot gets a better project in the future. They mentioned in an interview that Gem would like to play the bad boy and Fot the twins, so I strongly believe that their next series will fulfill their wishes.
