Waste of potentially great actors
I wish that someone would have taken this cast and given them a script. The younger of the cast have great acting skills, but they had nothing to act on. I finished watching this series for the actors alone, not the story. The story was lame and disjointed in my opinion. Honestly, the behind-the-scenes was more entertaining. And I hate saying that, because I LOVE Boun and Prem, and wish them the best. I also enjoyed the other boys. The fathers seemed to be comedic relief without the comedy, and there was a lot of overacting that just came off as ridiculous. There was so much space that could have been filled with story....ANYONE'S story...none of them were complete. Instead, there was a lot of staring out over the ocean/river/sunset. It was a waste of a lot of talent. From day 1, it has seemed that this is just a little drama to keep Boun and Prem relevant until their next drama airs.Cet avis était-il utile?

The worst drama with the best actors
Illogical but logical nice story but the script was more than lacking some times i had to give myself a pep talk not to drop it and to keep saying it only has 6 ep you can do it. Watch it just for BounPrem and the other handsome actors they did their best it's disrespectful to them to drop the drama ? ? ?Sun's character was just stupid i mean for the love of god i was screaming internally to grow some balls fo the love of God
I liked them the actors were ok handsome and cute and sexy and talented they did what they could with a crappy script.

Even 2 suns can't heat this one up
Characters exist, characters inexplicably fall in love. And some possible, muddled ships. That's about it to this BL.The storytelling is rather incoherent. Sun is sent to collect a debt from Athit--Sun is part of some debt collection company (it seems) and somehow Sun's own father engages the company's services, which sends Sun to collect the debt. (Weird.) And Sun is a debt collector who never manages to collect any debts--it is not clear why; it is not as though his colleagues have superior debt collection tactics, but I digress like the series keeps doing.
Anyway, it turns out that Athit does not even owe Sun's father anything. In fact, it's the other way round. So what purpose does it even serve to get Sun to collect a debt? Boun and Prem are the leads playing Athit and Sun respectively, and the acting is understandably weak because ... how are they supposed to act with such randomness? It is not like there's any nuance or depth of character to bring out.
Another couple, Ashing and Mangkorn, has an even thinner storyline (if you can call it one). It seems that Mangkorn is basically enslaved because of a debt his father owes (Ashing's father is the boss of the aforementioned debt collection agency). They don't get along well at first but suddenly fall in love.
Then there is an assortment of characters whose behaviors are often inexplicable. One vaguely sees some possible ships here and there, but everything ends up being quite confusing.
The storytelling style makes things worse. One quirk of this series is the use of flashbacks to show how what is happening in a scene happens to begin with. This style is most of the time purposeless and does not enhance our engagement or appreciation of the story.
The only really entertaining thing in this series is the ending. And I don't even mean the happy ending for the two couples. It's how the boyfriend of Athit's brother (a terrible person) is left stranded on an island, with everyone forgetting he's there. Initially, I thought that the careless scriptwriters simply did not realize that they had left him on the island. Perhaps they did, but it is funny how they made use of it at the end so generate some humor.

Well cast series has potential, but fails to live up to expectations
I had high hopes for this series, because of BounPrem of course, but also studio Wabi Sabi because they typically deliver high quality shows…But, I was let down by the plot - it just wasn’t interesting enough for me to keep watching and if not for BounPrem I might have stopped, but I saw it through because I wanted to see their relationship develop. Unfortunately the pacing of their relationship felt a bit off to me. Maybe because we didn’t get enough time to see their characters develop fully with this short series. Their chemistry was undeniably great & their acting was superb, but I think they were ripped off due to bad writing.
One relationship I really liked, was the 2nd couple (I won’t put their names, as I don’t want to spoil the pairing). Their development felt more natural, and I actually liked their story more. As another user said, I also wouldn’t mind seeing them in another series, maybe even as the mains :)
Some more things I liked were: the gorgeous scenery, the intro which I never skipped, cuz that shiz is catchy as heck (why are all Thai drama intros so good huh?!), and the last episode, which gave me edge of my seat, heart clenching’ feelings, waiting to see what happened next, which I hadn’t felt a lot of this series. Please make more episodes like this in the future!!
Good luck to all the talented actors in this series & I can’t wait to see more from BounPrem! Until Between Us airs, I will be rewatching the specials + their cute scenes from this & UWMA hehe ☺️

Reseña sencilla
Tipo me gusto la serie, pero la vd me sentía perdido con algunas cosas y sentía a veces que la trama medio se perdía y las tramas secundarias como que nomas no me encantaban la vd es que ya los dos últimos caps (especialmente el ultimo) me gustaron mas, no pude empatizar mucho con algunos personajes siento que nomas con la pareja protagónica y algunos otros, pero siento que es pq es muy cortita la serie y siento que maybe la trama daba para un poco mas de salseo pero bueno esta bonita a final de cuentas:)Cet avis était-il utile?

Love in paradise
those of us who are fans of Boun have a hard time being objective in our assessments, go ahead. Since Until we meet again, seeing him on screen, even if it is a cameo as Cutie Pie, is a gift and the connection that he made with Prem Warut is more than a ship, it is from authentic colleagues. Boun Noppanut Guntachai as a singer is a great discovery. But the series well… I start from not understanding why it has been classified as Content Rating: 18+ Restricted when there is very little romance or affection expressed… or little violence other than boxing or debt collectors! the plot is unevenly armed, with characters who do not fully understand what moves them, not even how they connect with each other. The story has no value, not even pulling the topic of children who knew each other in childhood, which is not used. Adults are childish even though they play the role of lenders. What stands out absolutely is the beauty of the settings, of the island, of its nature and beaches with excellently raffled shots, blurring or focusing to better get into the environment. It's like a great advertisement for a tourist destination. Even the actors' clothing fits into that atmosphere of serenity and beauty. But it's a shame we didn't get more out of the Boun Prem connection ship. … Series to watch with a relaxed mind and dream of going to Thailand and living that placid life. To give an example that breaks this idyllic image, the scene of the monkey with the coconuts on the beach, when he is seen under the palm tree tied and led by a human. He breaks the heart. It was better not to have exposed it and to have left us with the dream that it was wildlife and not that tyranny towards the animal that follows with its head down. Let's stay with this island and how beautiful love is and the promise of finding it without looking for it as this series proposes. and running away from the noise and hustle and bustle of the city to find this paradise.Cet avis était-il utile?

Não tem lógica mas tem química, isso que importa
Essa história chamou minha atenção pela sinopse. Quando eu vi que um cara ia ser cobrador de um agiota, lembrei imediatamente de "You make me dance", minha queda do cavalo foi grande!A série tem um grande apelo: os Boun&Prem, o essa resenha ela já começou)com sua gigantesca fanbase, desesperada por vê-los enquanto "Between us" ainda não estava entre nós (Estava, no passado, pois no momento em que escrevo ela já começou), e a presença deles garantiu um bom público.
Dizer que foi um bom roteiro é exagero, no máximo mediano. O plot do romance é bizarro de tão sem noção. Tenho a impressão que ultimamente, sempre que um casal vai mal, socam entre eles uma amizade de infância e acham que está tudo bem. As paisagens e fotografias belíssimos, o casal secundário num ringue de boxe, os velhinhos agiotas, ingredientes raramente vistos, porém mal aproveitados. Tinha potencial para ser muito maior do que foi.
Tem uma bela ost, a galera atua direito, mas sinceramente eu não veria de novo. Recomendo? Sim, mas não vá com muitas expectativas ao pote.

It's bad... Not terribly bad but bad nonetheless.Right from the beginning the direction pulled me off and then, it only continued.
There is absolutely no continuity in this series and a lot of errors that could have been easily rectified if the filming crew was paying attention to what they were doing. I have two examples in mind.
The first one is when Sun goes down the mountain alone. He decides to go back up for a reason that he is not even doing at the end and then, goes back down but... the road he's walking on is climbing and Arthit comes from the opposite direction from where Sun is, which is totally illogical if they both are going down the mountain. They should walk in the same direction. Also, I have to add that when Sun is halfway to the hotel when he is first descending, it is totally dark outside, but when he goes up, the sky is lighter than before.
The second example is when Sun begs Arthit to free him from the handcuffs and Arthit accepts. But the next scene shows them walking side by side, with the handcuffs locked on their wrists. So what happened between those two scenes?...
And there are so many errors like these throughout the series that I sometimes wondered if they didn't lose any footage and tried to deal with what they had left.
We also lack information about important things. Like the fact that Sun's dad has scammed an old man for 10 million bahts but we don't know if the old man realised he has been scammed and what happened next. We also have a flashback of Sun and Arthit when they were young (and Arthit remembers who is Sun) but we don't know if Sun remembers who is Arthit. And why is Ashing's dad sending Sun take back the money when he knew that was Sun's dad that owed money to Arthit's dad? Unless, Sun's dad was owing money to both Arthit's and Ashing's dads? I'm so confused...
Last but not least, the pacing of the series is awful and badly done. There is absolutely no progression whatsoever between the two leads throughout the whole series and, all of a sudden, at the end, Sun wants to stay with Arthit (when he wanted to escape the last 5 episodes) and Arthit accepts with a smile and a tear in his eye. Since when did they develop such a relationship? Is this again a case of missing footage that I was mentionning earlier? This is ridiculous. So I couldn't care less about these characters and their relationship because we didn't see anything interesting between them.
To conclude, I would say that the plot could have been interesting if it were correctly written and directed. I even thought at one point that maybe it was because 6 episodes were too short to develop such a story but the problem wasn't it: the main problem is the filming crew... The same filming crew with a 12-episode series would have been the same or even worse because our suffering would have lasted longer.

Serie horrível!
Assisti essa serie a pouco e não consegui chegar ao fim. A ideia de ver um garoto rico e mimado e seus amigos idiotas drogando e acorrentando um garoto pobre numa cama é revoltante. E ao som das risadas de seus amigos ver o garoto rico e idiota acordando o garoto com um balde de água e levando o mesmo acorrentado para executar trabalhos braçais. Tudo isso por uma dívida que não compra um relógio dele. Essa série propaga esteriótipos negativos de classe e poder e perpetua o dogma de que os ricos tem poder sobre os pobres através do dinheiro. É uma péssima influência para os jovens e não deveria ser exibido em nenhum meio de comunicação.Cet avis était-il utile?

se cerchi vibes estive sei nel posto giusto
Quando ho saputo di questa serie mi sono subito fiondata a vederla, non mi aspettavo che facessero una mini serie prima di between us che uscirà tipo a novembre (mo non ricordo benissimo quando).La trama mi è sembrata alquanto carina, peccato che l’abbiano portata male nel corso degli ep, tutto era confuso, hanno messo la verità solo alla fine, cosa che succede già normalmente nelle serie ma bho secondo me già se dicevano tutto al quinto ep facevano meglio in quanto poi avrebbero potuto chiarire meglio il tutto, sopratutto non capisco il perchè Athit ha strappato quel foglio, ceh finalmente ti restituiscono i soldi e te li rifiuti pure, bho ma secondo me l’ha fatto in primis per morale, magari non voleva soldi dal padre della persona amata bho.
Poi hanno messo in mezzo quella cosa di loro da bambini e io ero tipo “wtf mo me lo dite”, l’hanno messa all'ultimo ep e neanche vediamo se Sun se n’era ricordato.
Vabbè in ogni caso ho amato loro due, il loro rapporto cane-gatto e la carineria assoluta.
Riguardo la seconda coppia il tutto era stra bho, confuso, la loro storia è veramente carina poi il padre del tizio…che odio perchè non voleva far gareggiare il figlio e poi senza neanche accorgercene gli stava bene, l’ha fatto gareggiare e ha anche accettato il rapporto del figlio con quell’altro ragazzo bho.
Colui che ho odiato di più è stato il padre di Sun, imbroglione che sfrutta i soldi degli altri ingannandoli e ne va pure fiero, poi quando ha mandato Sun sull’isola e lui aveva scoperto che i debitori erano loro, non Athit, Sun l’ha chiamato e quel demente invece di aiutare il figlio in diffcoltà, ha fatto finta di nulla, povero Sun, il padre non lo merita.
Riguardo la relazione tossica di Nemo non ho capito neanche io come sia finita perché sembravano essersi lasciati ma comunque si son scordati quel tizio sull’isola, vabbè meglio così sennò poi Nemo doveva affrontare ancora tutta stra relazione tossica.
In generale non capisco come molte persone odino questa serie, infatti ho visto molti commenti negativi riguardanti questa siete dicendo fosse inutile ma boh io personalmente l'ho trovata veramente carina da guardare, nonostante tutti gli aspetti negativi penso comunque sia qualcosa di molto bello da guardare.
Penso sia una serie molto leggera, fresca, mi dà proprio le vibes estive e proprio per questo mi piace.
Poi ha pochi episodi, è una storia molto leggera da vedere ed è anche molto carina, effettivamente è una di quelle serie che puoi guardare quando vuoi vedere qualcosa di poco complicato e che non ti scervella quindi veramente per quando vuoi guardare qualcosa di molto soft, semplice.
Che poi seriamente quanto ho amato Prem con i capelli arancioni e quegli occhiali stra fighi, ho amato molto anche l’intro, da vibes estive e fresche.
Approvata, la consiglio.

Não entendi nada
Tem meus BounPrem, por isso terminei. A série é muito curta, eles começam bem os primeiros cinco episódios, mas dai resolvem tudo (DO NADA) no sexto. A fotografia é linda, até porque o lugar é um paraíso, mas o roteiro foi com Deus de tão fraco.O casal principal briga o tempo todo e até aí tudo bem, quem não gosta de um EnemytoLovers? Mas daí do nada eles se veem apaixonados, porque inventaram um plot de amizade de infância.
Eu achei até fofo, mas isso pode ser porque eu amo muito os atores principais.

It didn't feel like I was watching a fully thought out show
I recently discovered Boun and Prem and wanted to see more of them as leads, unfortunately, the two series I've seen of them aren't must-watch. This show had an intriguing plot but its execution was all over the place. I don't understand the need for four couples in six episodes. We literally got over two minutes of Sun cleaning up a room when that time could have contributed to exploring Sun and Thai's rivalry or Sun and Mek keeping each other up to date over the phone about their work. Sun's phone call with his dad did not need to be as long as it was. I understand it was going for comedy but because it was prolonged, it became boring and cringe. Honestly, the boxing arc felt so out of place, it might have been fine if it wasn't taking so much screen time from Athit and Sun's storyline but it did and I found myself skipping a lot of it despite appreciating boxing films and games. Mangkorn and Ashing's story should have been a spin-off or "Even Sun" should have had more episodes.It's odd that Athit and Sun's dads are best friends and close enough to lend and borrow 10 million baht yet Athit and Sun never knew that fact and only met once before Athit moved away. Sun's dad being the reason Athit's dad had a stroke/heart attack was so random and incoherent. If Boun and Prem weren't the leads, I wouldn't have given this show a chance or anything higher than a 5.
