Laws of Attraction (2023)

Good series but something still missing

The series is fun and has lots of over the top drama. The leads have great chemistry. The story is a bit much over the top at times. I have to say it's a great series in the story idea, but the execution of the series was a bit off. The character of Tinn is the only good guy in this series. Charn is not trust worthy from the start, and to much of a player for my liking. Sadly very disappointed with the story development and over the top acting at times. This could have been so amazing of a series, but the lack of morals and very unrealistic law and justice makes it to be all a big joke. The actors are great but the character development is bad. I really wish they took this series is a better direction. The two girls that are there friends are great characters, and the ex was a nice touch, love them. The second couple which is the son and bodyguard sadly not a fan of at all, their story was dull and lacked real chemistry. Wish they did a better job in the emotion department felt off considering this was all suppose to be about his niece death and yet felt like hardly touched on at all, the story was way to fast in getting them together. Good series but felt flat a lot when it came to morals and unrealistic at times. I do love both of their smiles are beautiful and crazy. The singing is amazing as well.

The blurred lines between law and attraction

The line between love and hate is barely visible, but the distinction between lawful good and chaotic good is clear as day. The very first scenes establish the characteristics of our main characters, Charn, a high profile lawyer who is ruthless and not above bending the law to further his will. One the other side is Tin, a martial arts coach who believes the law is just and the law will do it's job. These two are brought together on several occasions, the most notable being when they meet as plaintiff and defense in the case involving the death of Tin's niece.

The story moves along with Tin and Charn joining forces once Charn realises that something doesn't sit quite right with the case, and from here on out follows the adventures of the gang as they try to figure out the truth behind the accident.

The series is through and through a lakorn, from the gratuitous violence, terrible parents on one end, and incredibly supportive parents and guardians on the other, a villain who's not really a villain, and the plethora of other lakorn tropes that make it interesting (yet sometimes horrifying) to watch. Another great part is that this is also a character driven drama. The story and situation plays an important role in progressing the plot forward, but the involvement of the characters keeping in mind their personalities and allegiances make this a series where it is impossible to predict the next movement of any character. The story is fairly predictable, but the way the characters interact with each other in addition to the fact that you can never predict what exactly they're going to do next keeps it interesting on all fronts.

The best part though is the chemistry. Charn and Tin have this undeniable chemistry between each other, and they seem to have it with everyone else as well. The dialogue flows when they interact with each other and during those moments you almost forget how their relationship started out.

This is a genuinely good series, and while it does have its fair share of gruesome scenes (some of them were hard to watch), it's definitely worth a watch, especially for the romance.

One of the best bl

This is what i like to see. A fast paced good storyline with intense sexual tension.
You can see their eyes wanting each other since ep 1. The way charn was flirting with tinn made my my heart flutter. Whispering in seductive tone and staring at each other made me squeal.
That’s why ep 4 is my favvv. The club scene was the best and i don’t know how many times rewatched the scene where tinn put hands on charn waist turning him to his side.
Wish their were more moments like this. I don’t know how many times i must have said this in my head “Just kiss already” while watching this series.

Done fangirling, now let’s talk about the real review.

Charns characterisation was great. The grey character and a bit realistic. Obviously who won’t be like him considering his past tragedy. I really liked him in this series and the acting was toooo good. So drastic change in character, he was the purest soul in “to sir with love” and here he is with his sexy sinister smile. I especially loved his low voice when tried to tease and seduce tinn.

Tinn, a common man, had his life upside down. But still he was optimistic. He changed charn’s way of thinking despite all the shit happening. He believed in justice and truth.

But guess who’s my fav character??
It’s Nawin. I laughed so damn hard whenever he came on screen.


Even the supporting cast was great especially the side couple.

My only complaint is that this series way too short. I want more heart fluttering flirting, kissing and all.
And i want to see charn being jealous too for once, cuz the way he said “If you ever leave me or cheat on me...” in the last episode made me shiver. He was scary when he said this. I really want to see him being jealous, he would be wayyy more sulky than tinn.
I want a special episodeee😭😭

I would love to watch BL series between thantai and the body guard!

Somehow the intimacy is not much tho in this series. Also, i am interested about tharnthai story as he's actually innocent but it's just that his problem is his dad. Their story is more interested than charn and tinn 😅 There is 2 episode more before i end this series and the preview for the next episode of tharnthai and bodyguard is superb. I am looking forward to their story more than the main actor of this series tho 😅 Compared to to sir with love, i prefer to sir with love than this series. And also i would love to look forward with new BL series between jam and film and i hope the episode and the storyline is way better than this.
Overall i loved this series absolutely! But if the main actor intimacy is way better than i think its an improvement than in this seriesn😅

Sla

Na verdade eu não sei por onde começar, primeiramente está demorando para de desenrolar o romance, mas isso não é um problema, no início parece que você está vendo um bromance, mas eu não vejo problema nisso.

E isso é apenas um detalhe, que de certa forma é irrelevante, o drama em si é bom, a trama é bem desenvolvida.

Mas eu passei muita raiva dos dois protagonistas, mas só olhando para entender minha irá com eles, eu espero que esse pequeno detalhe mude, e que fique tudo bem por ambas partes.

Falando sobre o drama em si, Ele é bom, o ritmo que ele se desenrola também de certa forma e aceitável.

Better Mystery Than Romance

Surprisingly, this series works well as a mystery story and a good ‘who done it’ chronicle, but as a BL it foundered. The above quote literally summed up this series. For it is all about an unprincipled attorney’s futility in trying to be good but has fallen so far down the rabbit hole of evil that it is impossible for him to dig himself back up to the sunlight. I cannot say that the story is disinteresting; it is not. However, it does get overplayed and after a while, too many characters and too many scenarios convolute the story, and it almost becomes a farce. If you are expecting romance, there is little here. The 'second couple' is a way more interesting pair and should have been a major focal point in this series and wanted a more intense romantic connection between them. They were a power couple.

Lorsque Loi(s)/Charn et Attraction/Tinn s'attirent...

Laws of Attraction est le second BL thaï que je termine avec un réel sentiment de satisfaction depuis bien longtemps. J'apprécie vraiment cette direction de se concentrer davantage sur l'intrigue que la romance. Il est tout à fait possible d'avoir une histoire solide et une romance en arrière-plan. C'est ce que Laws of Attraction propose et parvient surtout à maintenir jusqu'au bout.

Je ne vais pas m'attarder des heures sur l'intrigue. Elle n'est pas parfaite. Il est aussi facile de remettre pas mal de points en question. Cela dit, c'est franchement honnête et correct sur le reste. Si les motivations de quelques personnages est discutable, que le méchant est une caricature sans surprise, l'ensemble fonctionne avec un bon rythme qui permet de ne jamais s'ennuyer.

Cela dit, si l'intrigue fonctionne autant, c'est aussi grâce à ses personnages, notamment son duo principal.

Charn (Film) apparaît comme une vraie tête à claques. Avec son petit sourire narquois, il m'a rendu folle plus d'une fois. Mais ça allait bien au personnage. En plus de le rendre hautain à souhait, ça servait à alimenter le mépris envers lui. Avant d'être dérouté quand il avait l'air vulnérable.
Si Film est parfois dans un léger surjeu, l'ensemble de sa performance était bonne. Mention spéciale à son passé qui apporte vraiment quelque chose. Bien que je me demande si Film n'est pas fait de titane.

Tinn (Jam) est si émouvant lorsqu'il pense à sa nièce. Ces scènes étaient de véritables crève cœur. C'est un personnage touchant avec des épaules solides qui compte bien obtenir justice pour sa nièce dont il s'est occupé toute sa vie. Jam dégage un puissant charisme tout au long du drama. Il a offert une performance forte d'émotions du début à la fin. Niveau interprétation, je le préfère même à Film, car Jam est beaucoup plus réaliste.

Si certains ont mentionné que Film éclipse Jam, pour ma part je ne l'ai pas interprété de la même manière. Charn est le personnage qui a besoin de la lumière c'est celui qui est sur le devant de la scène. Il se nourrit de l'attention des gens. Contrairement à Tinn qui est celui qui préfère agir dans l'ombre et s'activer en coulisses. Pour cette raison, s'ils sont solides indépendamment l'un de l'autre, ensemble ils ont chacun un rôle bien précis qui est en adéquation avec leurs personnalités respectives.

Au sujet de la romance...
Le jeu de séduction entre Tinn et Charn était très bon. Je crois que ma scène favorite reste celle de l'épisode 04 dans le club de Rose. C'est du flirt total, mais sans être concret, car ce n'est ni le lieu ni le moment. Mais clairement une excellente scène (ma préférée, définitivement). La romance reste en soit jolie et agréable sans prendre le pas sur l'intrigue. Même si les dernières minutes de l'épisode final n'étaient pas nécessaire.

Le reste du casting était très bon, je pense notamment à la grand-mère qui était d'une grande douceur et touchante plus d'une fois. La nièce tout autant avec en plus une très belle performance.

Pour parler rapidement de Thaenthai et Thee :
Thaenthai (See) est un gamin pourri gâté qui ne connaît qu'une façon d'extérioriser sa colère : briser quelque chose - un objet ou une personne. Sa peur se ressent dans chacune des menaces qu'il prononce. Ce qui fait de lui une personne tristement pathétique. Mais aussi tristement seul face à un père violent.
J'ai commencé à avoir de sérieux doutes quant à la culpabilité de Thaenthai au milieu de l'épisode 03. Et bien qu'on puisse comprendre son état, il reste un personnage mal exploité (ce qui lui fait perdre tout l'intérêt à mes yeux) et See était moyennement bon dans son rôle. Et non, mon gars tu n'impressionnes personne en faisant les gros yeux.
Thee (Pearl) est le garde du corps de Thaenthai. Il pourrait tout aussi bien être mannequin vu le soin apporté à son style tout au long du drama. Après quelques roustes, il est aussi frais que nouveau-né. Même Rocky ne sort pas d'un ring tiré à quatre épingles, mais ok. Je ferme les yeux (non).
La relation Thaenthai/Thee était un peu étrange. On comprend dès le début qu'il y aura quelque chose. Mais on prend un virage à 180° d'un coup. De "je suis ton garde du corps, mais je me dois d'obéir aux ordres de ton père" on se conte fleurette. Leur relation existe et c'est tout. Je ne lui ai rien trouvé.

Pour finir sur la technique... (que je trouve être le plus gros défaut)

Les scènes de combats ne sont pas terribles et les bruitages rajoutés n'arrangent pas les choses. Mais le plus fou reste les ralentis... Si on enlève les bruitages et les ralentis, les scènes sont correctes. Ça manque juste de cohérence et d'une bonne exécution, car on veut surtout en mettre plein les yeux pour dire "t'as vu, il sait se battre aussi", ok, champion...
Je veux dire, ils ont même rajouté un bruitage d'une braguette de jean lorsque Tinn s'habille... Bref.
Les maquillages sont passables si on décide de ne pas trop s'y attarder. Je regrette qu'en Asie, la perfection soit une telle obsession. On se retrouve avec des acteurs et actrices qui ont un grain de peau inexistant et qui les font rivaliser avec des poupées. Sans parler de l'effet lissant qui est une catastrophe. L'image en devient désagréable et les visages ne sont plus humains.

Pour continuer sur la technique, certains plans sont bons, tandis que d'autres ont de gros problèmes (image floue ou brouillée). Les éclairages sont trop forts sur une majorité des scènes - ça brise le charme naturel. Pour les scènes de nuit, on repère facilement les éclairages des équipes. Pour exemple, le début de l'épisode 04 avec d'un côté une ambiance et un teint jauni grâce aux lampadaires de la rue et de l'autre, un éclairage blanc et froid qui se reflète sur les visages et les véhicules. Quant aux incrustations de fond vert en voiture, je vais pas m'attarder, seulement le mentionner.

C'est vrai que je chipote pas mal sur la technique, mais j'ai franchement passé un bon moment sur Laws of Attraction. J'ai aimé le changement de décor. Si le drama manque de charme sur sa technique et ses décors, son scénario et ses personnages sont des bases solides avec lesquels j'ai passé 8 bonnes semaines.

En regardant au rythme de la diffusion, il y a un facteur indéniable sur l'attraction d'une production : l'impatience de la semaine suivante. Lorsque cela arrive, je ne me fais pas d'illusions, j'aime sincèrement ce que je regarde. Laws of Attraction ne me rendait pas follement impatiente, mais excitée à l'idée d'un nouvel épisode. Sa fin réduit aussi mon excitation qui est désormais concentrée sur I Feel You Linger in the Air (ohbonsang que j'aime ce drama).

The story is nice, but the acting...

To be honest, I find the story to be quite nice, almost along the lines of the kinnporche series, but also, compared to the same series, I feel like the characters don't have the dinamic they should. I feel like Tin fell harder for Charn than the other way around and while this may not be bad in itself, I feel like this was not the way the story is. From the story I understand that they both love eachother very much and I can also see this in scenes like the helicopter one or in the sub-stories like that one time Charn went to apologise to Tin, but when it comes to their on-screen performance together...idk i just don't feel the chenestry between them.

It's Fantasticcccc!!!!!

You all be givin' reviews after watching just one episode. That's not fair! I can only say that this series is fantastic! The chemistry of the main leads is just amazing! I could watch Charn smile all day long!! My god he's so hot. And the story is spot on. I mean the suspense part is really which makes me more & more curious as to what's gonna happen next! Maybe the supporting characters are a bit annoying sometimes, but the Grandma is good.

So, it's basically a BL crime drama. If you are a fan of crime/suspense genre & a fan of BL, this drama is definitely worth watching!
