Give it a shot, just don't expect too much

I started watching it when I came across a short clip on YouTube Shorts. Honestly, I heard of this a couple months ago, but I didn't watch it when the episodes premiered because I didn't have plans to. I heard a lot of toxic comments against it, so that is probably one thing that hinders me from even starting to click on episode one. I initially thought this was a waste of time and boring. In fact, when I finally started watching it just a week ago, I wasn't quite hooked after the first episode. There was nothing spectacular in the first episode. I expected it to pick up where the first season left off. It didn't even bother touching a bit of the story that made the last season a cliffhanger. Not until episodes 2 or 3, if I'm not mistaken. Also, there were parts of the continuum of the story that didn't quite make sense, which is why it lacks an interesting hook in the first episode. However, something pulled me when episode 3 came, or at least the part where both the leads, Tarntatch and Lomnaw, began their rivalry. I know it sounds cliché in most BL series, but the way they made it different shed light on the previous episode's boredom. Usually, when the trope is like this, they fight against each other to compete for something. This time it's different; they fight against each other to lose something. You have to watch it to find out. I won't spoil it here. Just picture this: whoever plays Tarntatch and Lomnaw has amazing chemistry. I have heard a lot of negative stuff about this series, mainly because of the diehard fans of the actors from the previous season. If I were you, don't listen to them and give this one a shot. I just have to warn you though that, like any other BL series from Thailand, this is not that high on the budget, but you will be amazed at how they were able to pull off a good scene, which usually requires money because of the location and props. I truly believe that this series has the potential to go big. Personally, my issue is not with the actors. I have seen a lot of old actors from a certain big company who don't have much improvement in their acting, but with good looks, they are able to have some fans. They actually have pretty big fandoms, and until now I still questioned why. On the other hand, the actors here seem pretty new to the BL industry but have really big potential. I just thought that the problem in this series lies in the writers and director. Some scenes were not necessary, but they were still added. I also notice that they didn't put much weight on the situation when Wayo was avoiding P'Pha because of that cliffhanger scene from the previous season. I believe they should have made it darker because the tone of that part of the story in this series is already dark enough, but only to be treated just like any other story. They could have made P'Pha strangle those bodyguards just to show his intent of going after Wayo who is avoiding him out of shame. They made P'Pha someone who would go against everything just to be with Wayo but these are all words and few actions. That is why it leaves me wanting something. The scene actually just passed by, and I was kind of waiting for it to be a bit bigger and more dramatic because that was the continuation of where season one left off. Unfortunately, they came up short on drama. Even if the actors can't quite do well with it, they should have added more scenes and dynamic blocking to make it appear dramatic. Also, they did not give so many lines for them to utilize. I have problems with their dialogues because many times you expect them to say something only to be dragged to another scene or frame when they are about to do so. I don't know if this is a deliberate cut, an editor's problem, a problem with the writer, or a director's interpretation of the scene. So if you are someone who is very keen on details, I would recommend you watch this to support the actors and not expect anything big from this. But mind you, the actors who played Tarntatch and Lomnaw have really surprising chemistry. I'm living for it. Up until now, I've been surprised that they are a match.
