Cooking Crush is a typical Thai Rom- Com with OffGun as main leads. But even a popular ship would not help this drama due to its lazy Directing.
In the positive side, we have sweet romance story between a culinary student ( played by Gun) and medical student ( played by Off), with a culinary competition as part of a bigger storyline. Gun as always delivered good acting performance, but as someone commented before me it look like Gun can't or don't want to kiss Off and after finally finishing watching this show I must admit they were right. If I didn't watch their other shows I would suspect they lack chemistry or don't want to act together.
Then we have Off who after Not Me improved his acting skills, but while his acting improved he pretty much play the same character since Not Me, quirks aside his character act too similar to each other.
Then we have Neo - who once again showed a really good performance and Aungpao debut which was really good.
But all this small acting issues could be fixed if Director wasn't lazy and didn't always pick the easiest option.
Script aside, but 85% of this drama are characters sitting, standing or laying down while talking, with various close-ups of their faces as they deliver often too long of dialogues. Most scenes follow format of: character walk in silence from point A to B and when they stop or sit they start talking with various close-ups of their faces. More often than not, doing nothing. It just so repetitive it very hard to not find it boring, walking while talking or doing something shouldn't be innovative...
