LIGHT PIECE OF FLUFF
Very simple, straightforward little 3 eps series. Nothing new or revelatory here. 3 couples, each has a minor misunderstanding that somehow threatens to break them up and they all get resolved in 1 scene each. Not sure what the purpose of this one was. Feel like it was only created to keep the stars of LBC in the limelight and give the fans the 2 (or 3) couples they most wanted to see. I kinda feel cheated. Wish there was a real conflict to propel the story forward, but I have to admit that I was happy when they all got their happy endings.
Perth is just tremendous. How does this kid do it? Those tears he just manifests at will are amazing. He makes me feel every emotion so strongly. Obviously, he and Saint (also strong here, as always), are comfortable together - and if I can read into the social media posts I've seen, they were in an actual relationship around this time so their chemistry makes perfect sense. The post where Perth wishes Saint well as he embarks on a new relationship is one of the most heartbreaking moments in BL ever... and it's real. I'm sure there were many reasons for the breakup, but I just wanted to punch Saint when I saw that and go comfort Perth. Dang, how I wish I was 20 and Thai. I'd propose right now.
Plan is basically playing Tin from LBC here, with very little differentiation. I don't think he has much range. Mean is pretty awkward. I wasn't a big fan in LBC, and here he just seems forced and faking it.
I don't understand why you would bring back one of the premiere couples in Noh and Phun without giving them a real and compelling story. They seemed wasted here. It didn't really feel like they were 4 years into this relationship. And my oh my how Captain has changed. I didn't even recognize him. The make-up, the lipstick. This is not the Noh from Lovesick at all. His acting is nowhere near as natural as it was in that series. And he seems to be playing a different character. Perhaps he forgot what Noh was like (or the writers couldn't replicate it). He still does a decent job, but doesn't capture the raw, honest vulnerability he once had. White is fine. I'm not a big fan, but he was understated and natural.
Not compelling enough to really recommend. Fine if you want a quick fix but overall just average.
