From an elaborated vitamin jelly commercial to an elaborated seaweed snack commercial
Cast: Same as in s1, so you get the good and the bad. Definitely ton of eye-candy. And I counted the entire 4 women who had more than 1 line to say out loud. Some actors do their job decently, with others you just wanna skip the scenes. This is especially visible with the main couple, played by Dun and Bas. They're supposed to be the most interesting couple and I was yawning at their kisses dialogues. If you add lousy writing to acting that is average at best, this is a clear recipe for a disaster. Bas as Wayu feels like has 3 face expressions: bashful, crying and staring into the distance. Dun as Thana is extremely dull. Supposedly the most mysterious guy on the campus has a personality of a dead fish. Not to mention the enormous lack of chemistry between Dun and Bas.
Music: nothing remarkable. Few annoying saxophone bits and acapella songs in the dramatic moments. Could be better, could be much worse.
Production: The production felt unbalanced. On one hand you have decent university/dorm/seaside resort locations. On the other hand you have a styrofoam grave that people start making memes about. Available on an official YT with bad quality auto-translate English subs. Few times I was so upset about the subs, I wanted to go to dailymotion or other streaming platform for the fan-subs which I'm sure would be much much better.
Plot: Season 1 was interesting, excluding the whole Pa mystery. I especially liked the serendipity and fate connecting Thanu and Phai. In season 2, the writers decided to clear out the throuple (or quadrouple, if you add Pa to this hot mess) rather quickly and Phai became some sort of holy figure trying to sort out his friends' messy lives. This drama including Wayu, Thana and Pa, where Wayu should try to choose between his current lover and critically ill ex-boyfriend could be interesting, but it lacked emotions and proper handling. Add bad acting from Bas and Dun, and you wanna skip most of this plot.
I hoped that Kimmon and Copter would hold the show for me, but no. The lousiest writing by making some ridiculous fake "long distance relationship" happened. Kimmon works well as an annoying but adorable puppy and Copter's always great as tsundere. But them barely sharing screentime for half of the show made me consider actually dropping this season before finishing. In the end I was extremely disappointed by this ordeal.
The only couples that somehow held it together were Pok and Tong, and Jack and Koh. Jack and Koh were more of a comic relief here and there, yet they brought more fun than the main couples. Pok and Tong's rather toxic relationship got some straighetening out before they found a happy ending together. I'm looking forward to seeing more of Bank and Bonus on screen in other shows. They have nice chemistry and it was exciting seeing them on screen, together or in separate scenes.
The show had plenty of pointless scenes, they'd be able to wrap it up in 6-8 eps, that would maybe hold more value and be better paced. And I'm not talking about the product placement scenes, that were not too annoying.
Summary: My friends warned me not to watch it because it was so bad, and they were probably right. It was a mindless cringiest binge over the weekend that I'll probably forget within two weeks and never get back to it again.
