The worst

I was not sure whether to watch this drama or not since I have heard nothing about it but after perusing the two reviews and a great number of comments all saying the same thing; a clunky first half but a brilliant second, I decided to give it a try. And I finished it. And I am still waiting on the brilliant part to show up. I have not seen it. Unless under brilliance people are talking about NC scenes and they really do start in the second part and there are lot of them. They are mostly superfluous. And they are boring as hell! Why? Because the PLOT is non existent! And voyeurism was never my cup of tea!

After the first episode, I had to check the year it was made because the plot was reminiscent of all those university bls from 6-7 years ago. The plot was the same (it was bad!), the acting was the same (it was bad), the sound effects were the same & omnipresent (it was bad), the costumes were the same (it was bad). The only part I liked a bit was the music but even that was the same (though not totally bad).

The plot: the rivalry between two dorms (2&3) of engineering (original, huh?) students which is not real since they are all attending classes together and are friends. There are like 5/6 different dorms. In the Dorm 2 there were pretty boys (they actually measured their facial features with a ruler! So CREEPY!) and in the Dorm 3 athletic guys. They are all apparently boys' dorms so there are no nasty and annoying girls shipping our couples (the other boys are doing that!). There are no girls. Period! There are three couples but the only interesting one was Meen & Bright. The rest was awful! Some things happen, and then some others none of which are remotely interesting. It finishes on an "uplifting" time skip of three years after their graduation. Ai is an engineering hotshot and Songkhram is a commercial airline plane captain. They both must be like 26 or so.... yeah, right! Nothing is convincing in this plot, there are some ridiculous gangsters and family drama but really left unsolved and forgotten. The overall plot is full of tropes: enemies to friends to lovers, fake adversity, getting together at a beach trip (usually in EVERY thai bl it happens halfway through!) some silly misunderstandings, faking fights and finally coming out all lovey-dovey. Beurk!!

The actors: none of them can act even a little bit, have zero chemistry with each other, some are cute (Meen, Bright, Song), the rest are ugly because they have been massacred by the hairdresser. At least they paid attention at workshops so their bedroom scenes were really long and they gave it all. And even that became boring and repetitive. Also, why are russian tourists playing english speaking businessmen(women)? The producers needed some western looking "actors" so they asked one of the numerous russians hiding in Thailand?

Cinematography was run of the mill though they did make an effort in creating dorm colour identities: one was red so everything was red and everyone was wearing red. The other blue...After an initial appreciation it became really cringe worthy!
And of course the comic sound effects! Please do away with those! Please! People are smart enough to understand what is going on without it being underlined by "funny" sound effects...

This is probably one of those dramas I will have trouble forgetting since it was so bad and I cannot believe I actually finished it.
