It could have been a bit more detailed and more graduated. Let's say it goes from one thing to another in 0.2 lol.
But all in all it was cute ( chon especially ) and above all funny
I really liked the supporting characters, in fact they helped

Didnt love it but definitely didn’t hate it
Honestly I liked everything but the homophobia. I know it’s a common subject in BLs, rightfully so. And the writers did a sweep job of making us dislike Ton’s father. What really triggered me was that his family was so well off and highly educated and all that jazz, then why was surrogacy not mentioned when the mom realized he was gay at a young age. If having an heir was really that crucial, then y’all could have figured this out. Now you’re paying unnecessary hospital bills lmao. I LOVED Ni and Ai (best friends and gay roommates) their scheming with Miriam was perfect! Kept me laughing the whole time.Would I rewatch, probably not but definitely happy I took the time to finish it. 7/10, would still recommend

Disgusted!
"i don't like men....i just like this one guy""i only have these special feelings for him"
"i'm not like them...maybe i am like them"
"he's a man - i'm a man"
i'll stop there and just say...stop doing this in BL's, PLEASE! it is some of the most annoying subject matter i've ever sat and watched. this is not reality and never will be. trying to convince me to buy into the premise that a guy is a gay/bi without them admitting they're bi/gay, but having this confess to one guy, but still proclaiming to love women, is just a headache in itself...minus the other clusterfuckery going on.
for this shit-show of a series...was it horrible? yes! could i have done without the nonsense at the end of episode 9 and all of episode 10? abso-fuckn-lutely. the homophobic father...typical and annoying. if you're going to make a BL series centered around gay males or self-discovery (coming out) don't make it about halfway being bi or almost being gay. Chon in episode 10 drove me up with walls not accepting a damn apology. if i were Ton, i would have left and said deuces. if anyone thinks i'm about to get on my knees in the hot sun - sweating bullets, while being rejected by a halfway cute guy laying in his bed with the a/c on...gotta be kidding me. never in this lifetime. however, after sitting in the sun and i guess sleeping on the ground...sending notes through the window...having my notes thrown in the trash and dumped on the ground....having water thrown on me while i sit outside sweating, by the person i want to accept my apology and fix the relationship...Chon still says no...but removing my shirt and giving a story about a tattoo does the trick and i'm home free and my relationship is restored. good fckn night, folks. oh but Ton's body was nice af....to me.
aside from that - this was a disaster - DEE ZAS-TER!

It's Not great, but not terrible either
It's cute. A little frustrating, but overall cute. It's funny and a little cringe at some points, but I did enjoy it.Could it have been better? Of course, but I'm not going to say how or why since it doesn't matter anyway.
The way the story unfolds as a typical BL plot. It can be pretty problematic at times with secret feelings all over the place, and hidden relationships, though this is the first time I've seen setting with call girls 😅
TW attempted r@pe. which was unnecessary.
My favorite characters other than the mains?
Chon's mom, she will BEAT YO A$$ for talking about TonChon in any bad way 😂😍
Na, he's honest af. He annoyed me at first, but he grew on me haha
Miriam, this girl went ABOVE AND BEYOND for all of those boys like we all need a Miriam in our lives. She'll be your pretend girlfriend/wifey, stand up to your BF's crazy ex. And when the truth comes out and now she just has 5 hubbies she'd go up to bat for any day lol
Worst Character? You'll see. There's only the one B

A cute funny drama but also a meh
This drama had so much potential. I liked the first few episodes. The concept of falling in love with his old best friend who is now very "straight" that he has to pretend he's straight as well while his best friend doing the gayest shit ever is so funny!I liked Chonlatee's character very much. He is soft and cute but could also be fierce and savage if he needs to. The scene of him splashing water to Tonhon's ex gf is a scene that cleanses everyone's soul. He also doesn't easily back down. There's also this scene of him splashing a bucket of water at Tonhon even when Tonhon was being depicted as tired and pitiful after cheating showing how he doesn't get easily swayed and stands by his words that he hates cheating the most.
Just wished they made Tonhon more likeable from the start because when Na had a character development, I began rooting for him than Tonhon. I didn't get as satisfied as I thought I would be when Tonhon and Chonlatee ended up together because I liked Na more. And Tonhon kissing his ex gf just to prove his "masculinity" was a shitty writing for his character. His role was to show everyone that masculinity does not equate with sexual orientation or gender, but at the end, he cheated to boost his ego and disrespected his partner. How he also got back together with Chonlatee don't sit right with me. He explained that he also liked him even when they were still kids, and that doesn't cover up his wrongdoings but Chonlatee forgave him because of that.
The ending was good though. Na having a boyfriend that he met on tiktok, Miriam being a surrogate and a millionaire, Ai and Ni still a strong couple, and Tonhon and Chonlatee expecting a baby satisfied me. The side characters are also loveable! Pang being the bestest friend everyone needs in their life and Chonlatee's mom being the bestest mom ever in the whole bl universe!!
Just a few character writing issues but it was a good series.

Love this!
For real, the first 4 episodes had me hysterically laughing, I got a coughing fit every few minutes and weezed like a granny walking up the stairs! The side couple could tell a story with their mimic alone and their chemistry was phenomenel! Their little glances and touches, their syncronized movements, I fell in love at first sight!Khao is such a great actor and can be paired up with a bag rice, I would still feel their connection and believe his love for the rice! He played Chon beautifully! Neo, ma boy, he is so talented, I love seeing him younger and in different roles, he always gives depth to the characters without loosing his charm or comedic talent. The other actors and actresses did a great job, too, I loved the way Ton got played.
Chon's mom deserves a medal for the best mom, the cussing in the last episode was hilarious! Ping is such a great friend, everyone should have a Ping! Miriam was at the beginning somewhat meh, but I really learned to love and support her!
At episode 5 the tune shifts and it gets more serious, but Ai and Ni always get the timing right for another hilarious moment. I really liked the story, it was light at the beginning, never boring ( the only thing that really got on my nerves was Amp. Girl, you lost!!! ) and the fight with oneself, to truly accept what you are feeling was beautifully portrait by the actor of Ton.
All in all, a nice drama with a lot of humor and more serious parts, a silly happy ending and sweet moments with a fresh couple and one that is already together for years. You can see the difference, and feel it, and that was so cute! I'm just a little sad that the kiss scenes from AiNi got cut in the post production, but there are a lot of sweet noments, gazes and touches that make up for it! I just like physical show of affirmation more than words, it's my way of showing love, so I naturally seek something like that in series, movies and such.
Give it a try, but I remind you: It's nothing to take seriously. Just enjoy the humour and the chemistry (between actors and characters) and their beautiful friendship!

Ruined by the last few minutes!
This show is FULL of tropes, absolutely rammed solid with them. The cute junior liking the senior, the ENGINEERS, only gay for you, spiteful token hetero etc etc…I really enjoyed the majority of this series! It was like coming home on a cold day and pulling a blanket out the tumble dryer! There’s something so comforting about the familiar and predictable.
That being said, the last few minutes took the shine off/ruined my buzz. Why on earth would Ton not tell Chon he loves him? They’re going to be parents, been together 3 years, in love for more than a decade and he can’t muster it up? Yuk. I wish I had paused it and could have lived in that blissful nonsense with Miriam without hearing Chon BEG Ton to say it just once. I’m still unsure what my true rating is because I’m trying to be fair but am also seething that I stayed up all night for that.

De cara gostei de Chon, sua personalidade e sua fofura, o Ton, é muito ambíguo, não o vi como homofobico, mas sim como alguém que cresceu aprendendo que tinha a obrigação de seguir os negócios da família e dar herdeiros aos pais, mas sua possessividade realmente era irritante.
Vendo o último capítulo, me fez pensar que ele podia ter um melhor aproveitamento e em resultado também ter um melhor desenvolvimento no romance. Como disse anteriormente, nunca o vi como homofobico, mas suas ações não têm sentido, pois parecia que havia dois enredos brigando entre si. O queriam homofobico ou ignorante? Os dois? No final, não souberam escolher nenhuma dessas alternativas. Confuso? Eu sei, foi como senti com essa "reviravolta” do final. Ele parecia sempre está cozinhando tudo no banho-maria. Nunca ia para trás ou para frente. Apenas nunca se dava uma chance, mas também não deixava Chon ter.
Ai, Ni e Miriam eram divertidos, às vezes me irritava com as ideias de tentar juntar Chon e Ton à força. Amei a amizade de Pang com Chon. Confesso que no começo Na me irritava por exibir sua riqueza, mas com o tempo descobri que era apenas uma fachada para ter amigos. Ele desde o início deixava claro seus sentimentos por Chon, sempre foi bom amigo para o mesmo e foi o único que não passou pano para Ton sobre suas atitudes. Com certeza meu personagem favorito.
No início estava feliz por não tratarem as mulheres como inimigas, mas daí surgiu a ex Amp, o que achei que seria um arco rápido virou algo arrastado que envolveu até plano de tentativa de estupro. Taí outra coisa que me incomodou, por que a falta de busca por justiça, foi esquecido como se não fosse um crime. Me pergunto se isso é algo recorrente dos BL.
Alguns pontos negativos ficaram com a forma machista de tratamento que o pai de Ton tratou as mulheres até o final, como se só servissem para gerar bebês, a demora no envolvimento do casal, só aconteceu no episódio oito, deve imaginar o quão corrido foi e precisava de um melhor desenvolvimento, aliás para o casal coadjuvante também.
O final é feliz, porém podia ser melhor, se tivesse focado só nas partes leves e fofas, sem truques, ex chata, e claramente uma tentativa de estupro. Com certeza teria sido melhor.

A Secret Pleasure of Mine
This is such a feel-good series particularly currently. Honestly, I should not have liked this, but I did. It is slow, predictable, filled with the usual suspects but so much fun. I could not help laughing at its silliness and cuteness at the same time. If it were not for these actors, this would have been a total disaster. They made this series so real, so comedic, and just a joy to watch. I did not care that it had no depth to it or great message. It was just entertaining. It is a thing of beauty to watch. The ending is as unrealistic as this entire plot but so in synch with the rest of this series. This was a comedy and indeed has a happy ending (well you know what I mean). Everyone wins in the end. Do not read too much into this series. This is not a slice of life; it is essentially asking you to suspend your reality and simply enjoy a feel-good series about love between guys. There are a lot of flaws in this series from ridiculous characters, such as Amp, to crazy plot lines, like a surrogate pregnancy. But for me, it worked. Why? Because I believed the characters.However, there were some situations in this series that made me shudder. One is the overuse of ‘hubby-wifey’ connotations. Again, I am NOT Thai, and I do NOT even pretend to know the Thai culture or customs, but for me these terms are simply cringeworthy. I am hoping we can stop using these terms to define gay relationships. I know that they might help make them more relatable to societal norms, but these terms are simply outdated and literally have no and should not have meaning in the gay world. They make it sound as if these are your assigned roles and duties, thus perpetuating the stereotypical roles of each gender.
The words that Chon's mother is so apt here and we should all remember them, “It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.” If you would like to review my full review of this series, it is posted on my free blog site at ppbongi.medium.com. I have to caution you that I actually liked this series, despite its flaws.
