To start this off, I love the actors… but this show was just not enjoyable for me. I did like it for the first few episodes because of KitMark and what could have potentially become KohJack and PhaiThanu. This will be a pretty lengthy review since I’ll be talking about my opinions on the couples, individual characters and the story/plot of this show.

((PLEASE DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT ANYTHING SPOILED!!!!))

KitMark:
They were robbed!!! I feel like they didn’t have much screen time throughout the show. It was about them for the first few episodes but after they got together they were just forgotten?? I honestly don’t know what the director/writers were thinking because wasn’t this season supposed to be about Kit and Mark?? They really were robbed. They were one of my most favorite couples ever. Sad that they didn’t get many scenes towards the end.

KohJack:
Oh my god. Don’t even get me started on these two. They had soooooooo much potential. When they both had started going after Wayu and fighting over him was when I realized how good of a couple they’d be. Even Wayu himself was shipping KohJack!! If they had finally realized they liked each other all along they would be my favorite couple in this series. The whole enemies to lovers trope is one of my faves which is why I was rooting for them the whole series.

PhaiThanu:
Honestly I really thought that they’d end up together at the end of the series. Since the moment they had locked eyes I knew they would be good together. The whole destiny/fate was really surprising at first since it really came from no where but it was bearable. Another thing that really got my hopes up for them was when they had met again on the day of the cruise that Mark had set up. With the flashes of the future and whatnot. But then the time came, Thanu realized that his one and only was Wayu all along??? It was confusing. I’m still rooting for Phai and Thanu, however.

PokTong:
…. I hated them. They were unbelievably toxic and boring. Since the second I saw the scene of them on the ground together and Tong saying he wants to save his first kiss for someone he loves I knew they were going to be annoying. Not like saving your first kiss is wrong but… considering this is a bl they will somehow make it annoying. They were so unnecessary to the series. I skipped almost all of their scenes if I’m being honest. Which was fine because they actually had nothing to do with the plot and it still made sense without them. I have so much more to say about them but I will end it here since it would take too long to type/read.

Wayu:
Such a crybaby and for what?? Like I get it, you were heart broken with no explanation from Pha. That’s a valid reason to be upset. But to cry the second someone mentions him??? It’s… I don’t even know what to say. They did him so dirty with this character. They made Wayu a weak and fragile boy who needs a big strong man to save him 🥺I get crying over him every now and then, but EVERY EPISODE??? It was honestly repetitive and annoying. The show had a time-skip of like a month in between episodes, which was the only one that was mentioned. The entire story happened within one year. Throughout that whole year, Wayu was trying to convince everyone that he was over Pha… but everytime someone would even mention someone like him, he’d burst into tears? Even when he told Thanu that he was over Pha and only liked him I knew he was a lying bastard because right before that when they were having dinner someone asked about Pha and he started crying. It was basically a one day difference. Honestly the show could have been way more bearable if Wayu wasn’t talking about Pha every episode and crying over him every episode. Again, I can ramble on for days about him but I won’t.

Sandee:
Honestly I don’t understand his character at all. To me, he was just Phai’s friend. It was quite obvious (or so I thought) that he liked Phai. I have no idea what his intentions were with sending that picture to Wayu, which once again, he cried over.

-quick intermission-
What I don’t understand is why did Wayu start sobbing over a drawing of Phai? Like…. Was there some note in there that we didn’t see?? He had a whole crisis about it that I was so confused watching it, I honestly found it funny.
-back to Sandee-

I feel like Sandee was one of the best actors in this. Even with his limited amount of scenes, he really pulled it off. Him being the black mailer this whole time was a shock to me to say the least. I liked Sandee, he was a great character

Padbok:
Uhm???? Why was he always picking fights with Thanu 😭 like grow up. Talk it out. ‘I don’t want to see you around. Next time I see you, you’re dead’ and then he proceeds to follow Thanu wherever he goes and gets mad at him telling him to leave? He was childish and they really should have put more effort into his character.

Klui:
He honestly deserved way more screen time even though he was a support character. He was my favorite character out of the whole series. He was funny, charming, and handsome. Every time he appeared on screen I’d get so happy. There’s really nothing else to say other than I loved him

Sab:
Neither liked nor disliked his character. I appreciate how he tried to help mark and kit get together… but… we all saw how that turned out. He was funny at times and just pleasant to watch.

The story:
It was a mess. It was a dumpster fire. Why give Phai and Thanu destiny/fate trope if you’re just going to do the same with Wayu and Thanu?? The whole Phai-Wayu-Thanu love triangle was so messy, drawn out, boring, and unnecessary… sort of. The only good part of the story was the very beginning when Mark was trying to pursue Kit, it just went down hill from once they got together. The worst part of the story was Pok and Tong being a couple and they weren’t even needed to move the show along!!! They were just there to fill in time, I’m guessing, since the episodes were so long.
