I watched this for the BL element but quickly understood that this is set in a world that sometimes feels like exploring a culture of small towns, farms, and places you want to leave when you grow up.

Let's start with the BL light, without offering spoilers the scenes seem more like a bromance experiment and don't qualify as a romance or even love. It just happens and then it disappears like leftovers you toss away. The character played by
Frank Thanatsaran Samthonglai looks like a supermodel who wanders into the village and nobody says anything about it. His acting here is convincing as a figuring-it-out way. If there was a true BL spin-off maybe this Frank couple could have potential as a couple that has a shot. It has hints of a BL couple in the making...but that doesn't show up here...

Overall, the Music and other stories are authentic and equally confusing because romance seems very low on the list of things this show wants to showcase. And that's okay too.
