Wanted to like it, but just couldn't

Oh, what a trainwreck this show was. I think I’m especially disappointed as I thought the setting and main actors were not bad, in my opinion.
I really liked the idea that on the one hand side we have the tailor Aioon, who is very talented and just a really nice guy who runs a tailor shop with his two brothers. And on the other side we got Nawee, an arrogant, tormented rich guy who is scared to leave the house. They meet because of a suit (not really a tuxedo) which then sort of brings them together. I thought the acting was fine and the two leads had nice chemistry. But man did it all go downhill fast.

The plot is basically non-existent. When all the fuss was made about the perfect suit for the birthday of Nawees father, I thought it would be this big corporate event with loads of important people, where the son really wants to shine. But it then ends up being an awkward little family dinner that lasts about 5 minutes as no one eats anything and ends with the dad telling the son he doesn’t want to see him anymore. And why? Because he is a “bastard”? It’s the 21st century, give me a break. Sometimes it felt like they were hinting at some bigger family secret involving the past of the dads of our protagonists, but it never goes anywhere. When the horrible father leaves the dinner, Aioon tells him, he will regret being so awful to his son. It seems like a threat or a premonition or something, but of course it is in fact nothing and never mentioned again.

The terribly stereotypical side characters of the fumbling assistant, the annoying ex-girlfriend and the ridiculously evil stepbrother added nothing to the show and were a total waste of time. And don’t even get me started on the odd relationship of Aioons two younger brothers and their fight about a turtle. Again, this added nothing to the show and the time could have been spent so much better developing an actual plot.

I did enjoy the dynamic between the leads and how we started to see that the arrogance of Nawee mainly came from loneliness and Aioon managed to tear down his walls. This could have been developed into so much more, add some properly written dark family secret that is being uncovered and some likeable side characters and boom, this could have been good, but they just seemed to get it wrong every chance they got. It is absolutely beyond me how someone read that script and actually said, yes, great, that makes sense, let’s film it. Unbelievable.
I hope for the actors that we get to see them together again in some other show with a decent storyline where they get a chance to show what they can do as this is definitely not it and I unfortunately can’t recommend watching it to anyone.
