This series can be seen as the dark horse for the first half of 2020. I was more excited to watch 2gether the series and WRU? just by the trailers as they drew me in. When I saw this was coming out and after watching the trailer, I wasn't that much excited. However, I still decided to watch it, because I try to give all BL series a go. And I am glad that I did, cause this series was clearly more enjoyable to me than the other two that I was originally eager to watch!
Story-9.5/10
This story was simple, yet it was beautifully told! I loved being introduced to these friends and the guys who they will in turn develop feelings/ have relationships with. What stood out to me was that the director was able to give an ample amount of time for each of the BL couples. This series had four- one MC and three supporting. And I loved all of them. They were all developed beautifully and well, which I think is very rare in BL series as it seen that other BL couples are not properly developed in other series, leaving us viewers either confused or wanting more of them. A reason for this could be due to the fact that this series clearly had better editing skills than the last two series that I recently finished watching. They were able to achieve this due to the fact that they released this series a whole month behind it's original airdate, so that they can fix it's editing as well as for it to show in various countries once viewers were using the WETV app. What annoyed me was the lack of communication between the MC. I am seeing to much of this in BL's, as if that is there go to move and it is getting quiet annoying now. Now to talk about the characters.
Bohn and Duen- I know hat there are some viewers who didn't like the main couple. But in all honest, I adored them. Why? Because neither person did a 180 when they finally got together. Yeah they quarreled over silly simple things, but when they were wrong- they apologized. They showed growth AND they still remained the same way. For me, it felt like they were telling each other you met me like this, then you will love me like this- they didn't have to change to be with one another. In one episode that shows growth is where Bohn asked Duen to move in with him and he told him to give them a year and if they were still together then yes. That right there is growth and sensibility compared to some other BL series as they were basically with each other for less than one month.
Ram and King- God! I feel for these two so hard when they started having scenes together! I loved them to death! The progress of their relationship was so sweet and simple. King helped Ram through his personal situation and became his rock. They really carried me through an emotional rollercoaster in that last episode and I cannot wait to see more of them!
Boss and Mek- From bestfriends to lovers! In the beginning I really did not have any opinion on this couple. But, as the series progressed and we saw more of them, I loved them. My heart broke every time Mek's heart broke. And then with the introduction of Fon in some earlier episodes who liked Boss, I felt more in pain. I am not gonna lie, I honestly thought that Fon had no feelings for Boss, but she truly loved him that she was willing to give up her dream to actually be with him. I was glad that they wrote Fon in a good light and not like a vindictive person. This is where some other BL writer's could take points as well!
Thara and Frong- They came in late in the series and they have stolen my heart. I loved their interaction with each other. And I can't to see more of them in the next season (especially since Thara only now sees Frong as his junior and nothing more).
I loved all of the side characters. All of their friends and families added what I enjoyed about this series! I especially adored Ting Ting! She was truly entertaining.
Acting-Cast-10/10
Everyone's acting was so good and enjoyable. You can see that everyone enjoyed working with each other and it was able to transcend into the screen. They were all able to play their characters so beautifully and felt the emotions that they all felt. I truly enjoyed them.
Music-9/10
I usually don't pay attention to music in series. But when Bohn and Duen was in the woods and the music played in the background- yeah, that really got to me. So, because of that, I raised it to a 9.
Rewatch Value- 10/10
Without a doubt, I will rewatch this series. Even the dreaded episode thirteen I will watch over again, cause things were actually cleared up nicely in the final episode.
Overall-9.5/10
This is currently the highest rating that I have given for a Thai BL series for 2020 that started in 2020 and finished in 2020. I don't know if any other series will take over- I will just have to wait and see. In the end, My Engineer was truly a great series and I would highly recommend it to other people.
