This drama FLIPPED my expectations
This is a more personal review than I usually do, but if you're trying to decide whether to watch Theory of Love or not, I still recommend reading this!
Okay, where to start... First of all, this show has great phasing. I loved the way how 6 episodes were from Third's point of view while the remaining other 6 episodes were from Khai's! That way we could see everything that happened and how it affected both of them with no biases. The depth in characters was also amazing to see, and their morals were realistic. Another realistic thing was the portrayal of love in different shapes, or should I say "genres".
This show had an interesting and unique touch on the romance genre, and it showed us how simple yet difficult love can be. While it's easy to fall in love, falling out of love is way harder.
The setting was original. Even though the trope "I fell in love with my best friend and kept it a secret because they're a player" might sound generic or disinteresting, this drama handled that concept beautifully; Especially the fact that Third didn't just give his heart to Khai when he asked for it, but rather wanted to make sure and be convinced that Khai knew what he was getting into and why- to ensure their bond wouldn't break completely just because of their hastiness.
I really enjoyed them being film students, and actually this drama was one of the reasons I came to be more interested in pursuing that career, realizing I might prefer to be a screenwriter instead of a novelist with how visually my mind works. The movie references were also a fun additional touch, although I didn't recognize them, the characters did and that's what made it special.
The character dynamics were also fun! I liked how none of them had a clear thought about everything, and how they showed that miscommunication is still common even between long-time close friends.
I'm comfortable with giving this a 9.0 score. For a Thai drama, this was extraordinarily great. I truly believe that every fan of romance dramas should watch this at some point to see different perspectives on the genre.
