Fourever You Project (2024)

Johan North supremacy

To tell you the truth I'm an all time fan of romantic comedy and this series is exactly the same..
I dropped the series from the first episode- not because it is boring but it felt a little slow- not to mention whenever there is Earth ( sry I love Earth but his part is always a little slow..only in the 1st 2 episodes) but believe me, you have to watch at double speed just 2- 3 episode and you will enter the world of romantic comedy. Guys it's totally worth it!
From now on, Johan is my all-time favorite. His aura, secret smile, possessiveness- I was barely breathing when he put the seatbelt on North.
They have the intimacy chemistry biology and everything. Like what ter said, I'm also a shipper for both of them.
I love how jo didn't even get angry at North, even when he knew north was lying to him..(He is a mix of red and green flags- I love him) He is completely and madly in love with North.
At first, I watched it for hill and ter, but Johan and North surpassed everyone, and they have all my heart.
You have to watch first to understand the feeling-it's totally worth it. Not to mention the director; he has done such a great job and he is also the director of Perfect 10 Liners. Now he's controlling the romantic comedy genre in his hands. Both are now my favourites.
Some people rate this low probably because they feels it has an old school vibe and the ml seems toxic. However, I feel this adds charm to the story, as it showcases different personalities and how they are accepted and loved for who they are. This kind of old-school storytelling can feel therapeutic in today’s fast-paced world. And all MLs will not be like tin or mhok. So, don't judge quickly- watch a light-hearted romance. Who knows, it can be your therapy.
P.s. If you only want to watch johannorth, start from the 5th/6th ep. But I'd recommend watching from the start to understand the friendship btwn the characters.
And please try to watch the uncut version.. that few extra seconds of kissing scenes can melt you for sure..

Did I just time-travel?

When I first pressed play on this show, I was incredibly confused. I had to double check the title because I thought I'd accidentally clicked on 2 Moons, or Love By Chance, or something. This feels like walking into a time machine that takes you straight (or well, gay) back to the old-school BL era. Not in a good way. In an 'I've seen this exact BL 37 times before' and 'Here we go again with romanticising toxic behavior' kind of way. The acting and the chemistry are pretty good, but this show has nothing interesting or fresh to offer, so I don't really have anything interesting to say either. Therefore, I'll do my best to sum each couple up very briefly:

Hill & Easter: Toddler in the body of a grown-up throwing hissy fits and getting manhandled by the college heartthrob who won't take no for an answer and posts photos of you holding hands without consent. Of course both of them continuously avoid telling their friends (and the viewers) about their mysterious past, which isn't all that mysterious if you've seen enough other BLs. Their story is also dragged out beyond any point of reason, having them act like boyfriends from, like, episode 3 but not actually getting together until way too much later.

Johan & North: Slightly more mature toddler in the body of a grown-up getting bossed around by the stereotype of an emotionally unavailable, controlling, rich college hottie. I have a head-canon that Johan was in a motorbike accident that knocked all but one braincell out of him. Because nobody who rubs even just two braincells together would ever think acting like a dick and treating them as your slave is the way into your crush's heart. Either that, or Johan is a passionate BL watcher who has taken lessons from all the wrong characters. Well, at least Easter ships it because apparently your best friend getting harassed is cute and not at all scary, at least when the guy harassing him is handsome.

lack of communication/acting like a child and idiotic/abusive approaches

Overall: not a fan of the dynamic between either of the couples. This series is based on books which I haven't read and will review the series on its own merits.

- watch episode 13: part 1 11:30-end, watch part 2 and part 3, can watch part 4 for a long flashback scene for how two characters met

What I Liked
- excellent way to start a series
- the F4 entrance was fun (though not the exposition dump to introduce the characters)
- nice to see several actors again
- supportive dad and grandma
- good that after confronted a person apologized and removed pictures that were taken without consent

Room For Improvement
- feels very old school Thai BL, there was zero reason for poor communication dragging on for a long time/not clearing things up right away in the past or the present, several things are not clearly explained to the viewer
- a total jerk (controlling, manipulative) was supposed to be someone the viewer roots for because he was less evil than another jerk introduced in episode 10, the "plan"/approach makes zero sense and was unpleasant to watch, his victim blaming "I told you not to work there" and financial coercion (I'll give you money for each kiss/hug) was gross
- the haircuts/styles and acting like a child as a university student (an actual dialog was a character saying that they needed to hold hands or the other character (a university student) might get lost, later on a different character covered his boyfriend's eyes to prevent him from seeing someone kiss because I guess he was not mature enough to see that???)
- nonsense stuff like a character saying he would answer anything and then the other character not asking the most important question
- 5 episodes was much too long for the first couple's story
- the comedy sound effects didn't make things funny
- not a fan of what a character did while the other was sleeping in episode 1
- awkward body gap and hands at sides when kissing
- cliche ex girlfriend plot in episode 10


Note: I skimmed thru the cut version to find the missing 5 minutes in ep 1 and other than the beginning being shorter, I didn't notice any changes. Episode 2 uncut was 1 minute longer. Right now I'd recommend watching the uncut version when there is NSFW as that will likely be reduced/cut in the cut version. (as of episode 9 there's no NSFW)

I wanted To Love This

Based on 4 Novels. 4 Couples. That is a complete fabrication. Now I love Hill and Ter and Johan and North but what about the other 2 couples touted in this BL.
Ngern is an OG having appeared in the original Love Sick and it's sequel over 10 years ago and this series hires someone of his caliber and for what? To sit in the background.
The other couples have had little to no interaction and there are 3 episodes left.
Even the unspoken love of Tiger and Nao shines brighter than Ngern and Bever's non existence storyline. This series has disappointed me for that reason.
The same was done in We Are with MarcPoon (aka Chain and Pun) which I got to a certain extent, Poon replaced Pawin and it could have been an unacceptable ship in the eyes of fans. Was that the reason idk but MarcPoon seem to be thriving as the are paired in Perfect 10 Liners and A Dog and a Plane.
All characters in Fourever You as far as the 4 Couples say main role but they are not main roles. They are relegated to support almost guest roles. There is nothing you can do in 3 episodes to give Ngern and Bever's coupling a shot. So disappointing.
Maybe its just me but why lie and say Ngern, Bever, Oat and Tonliew were main roles when clearly they are not.

Maybe I'll come back to the review after this ends idk I'm not rlly a fan

I think the series started off strong, the first episodes were well done but as it went on and the storylines kept getting dragged on for no reason (HillTer I'm looking at you) it slowly started descending until crashing. Yea the last 4 episodes could be good but even then I wouldn't bring myself to rate this above a 7-7.5 and that's mainly for a few reasons

Easter pisses me off and makes me wanna turn this off, Hill is fine I like when he's on screen (whenever his romance with Ter isn't getting strectched) but with Ter I can hardly find any redeeming qualities, I heard he's the same the novel but I still don't like him. Particularly with his weird shipping tendencies, like girl your best friend is stressed out of his mind by the amount he owes to Johan, how's he gonna pay it off and also North has to deal with his own and Jo's feelings, what a good friend would do is support him not SHIP him the debtor!? In what world is that a reasonable reaction. Love you Earth but Easter annoys me to no end

But even if the whole debt didn't exist it would still be borderline creepy shipping him with Jo when North hasn't given any indications or signs that he likes Johan. Yea, we're shown that North indeed has some sort of feelings towards Johan but like, Ter doesn't know that yet he continues to ship them to the point where its genuinely uncomfortable to watch, I just feel like fast forwarding anytime Ter opens his mouth bcs I actually don't care about what he has to say. Just take the antidelulu pills and take about ANYTHING ELSE. I like Hill tho he doesn't annoy me

What does annoy me is how Hill and Ter's story was dragged on for more than needed, wdym it took them 12 whole episodes to become bfs when they knew they liked eachother from the beginning, this is no longer slowburn this is just torture to watch as they make ZERO progress 😭They could've very easily wrapped it up by ep 5 and gotten out of the way to leave space for the other couples instead of making part 1 and 2. THERE WAS NO NEED FOR THEM TO HOG SO MUCH SCREENTIME

Now for JohanNorth, I really liked Jo at first, but recently he's been weirding me out with his borderline creepy behavior, not bcs of the debt (that's justified as North kinda trashed his house) but the way he's pursuing North is just not rlly nice to watch. Buying all the places North works at? excuse um wtf that's not cute that's kinda stalker-ish behavior. Idk I feel like Johan's approaches could've been written better like just give advice to North as to why he shouldn't work there instead of BUYING THE DAMN PLACE, he was also doing an awful job at showing his feelings but that's not rlly a problem. I still have some faith he won't be an overly possessive bf bcs I really want to enjoy their story

Anways that's the end of my rant, idk if any of this made sense but thanks for coming to my ted talk

A Cute BL College Romance

I'm going to keep this review short and simple.
First, do not take this drama seriously.. it's a light hearted drama, so enjoy it! Don't think about it too much.
Secondly... here's my review.

If you are looking for a light college romance BL, here you go. I am lovinggg these couples. I love how there are multiple. (I believe there will be a second season for the next couples we didn't get to see). The romance is so cute! One of my favorite things about BLs are when we get to see the characters backstory and how they fell for the lead early on. It's just one of my favs. We get to see plenty of that here.
Another fav trope of mine in BLs is a "bad boy" ML and a "softie/odd" ML as a couple. I absolutely loved them. We also get a second chance romance which I always love.

A couple of common complaints people are making is the lack of screen time for the "second" couple, (although they are considered a main couple). Which yes, I can see, they definitely could have gotten rid of a few scenes from our main couple. But I feel it was still wrapped up nice giving us viewers what we wanted. A cute romance.

Overall: A 10/10 watch. It got rid of all my stress watching this drama, and I certainly recommend.

GIVE IT A TRY FOR JOHAN NORTH

If you like a series with simple plot but better actors and better chemistry then this one is for you.I liked all the characters all those actors have done phenomenal job specially Maxky and Bas these two feels like they were born to portray Johan and North (Chemistry is too good )I don't think I can move on from them that easily.I see many talking about Earth's acting and as a novel reader I saw him as EASTER not EARTH and according to me he did was easter was supposed to do.Anyway I hope the future viewers won't drop this drama( I know initial episodes are little bit slow and..) but trust me it gets better, North will make you laugh a lot while typhoon's longing eyes will make you curious about part 2 and Johan North of course BUTTERFLIES ^°^

Balance screentimes?

Better learn form 'Love in the Air' and 'Perfect 10 liners' in term of giving proper screentime towards each couple (exclude TonfahTyphoon and ArthitDaotok since they will be more focused on Fourever You Part 2). No matter what people say, both couple has their own storyline either complex or not, deserved their own screentimes. That's it .. No hates toward HillTer, but JohanNorth also main couple in this Part 1. If they couldn't give balance screentime for JohanNorth and HillTer, why not from the beginning just make JohanNorth as side couple. Screen writers should consider author's opinion regarding the 3rd version of the script so everyone could live in peace. And ... there's a lot of missing important plots about JohanNorth in the series especially how Johan started to change from being player to hardworking and committed to North. They only show how Johan fell in love. Because I'm reading the novels, so I'm feeling disappointed. Sorry to say.

(Sorry for my bad grammar, English is not my spoken language)

ps: Bass Hatsanat and Cooearth, I love this duo. Never disappoints. Long time no see Bass, all rounder actor. Coo too, long time no see. Give them both 8/10. Never watch any Pond and Maxky's works before, so I don't know what to comment but so far they're doing good and I don't feel cringe of their scenes. But, Maxky does leave good impression like he knows his character very well.
