A Groundbreaking and Hauntingly Realistic Work of Art

I believe 'I Told Sunset About You' (ITSAY) is a groundbreaking series that truly deserved all the accolades it received. At its release, it stood out as the first high-quality queer coming-of-age story from Thailand. The series excels in every aspect: the cinematography is stunning, the acting is impeccable, and the story is beautifully crafted. I find it flawless in every regard.

The show's portrayal of reality is so hauntingly accurate that I couldn't get through it in one sitting. I deeply relate to Teh, which at times is almost unsettling. Similarly, I find Oh-aew's emotional maturity incredibly charming, much like you do. The development of relationships between Bas and Oh-aew, as well as between Teh and Tan, is executed perfectly. Each character is given a thorough and meaningful arc, ensuring they all have their moments to shine.

I also fell in love with the authentic cultural nuances embedded in the series. It subtly yet effectively portrays the Thai-Malay-Chinese relationships, starting with Teh's family background as Chinese-Malay descendants. This cultural backdrop significantly influences the family dynamics and expectations, from Teh's name to his mother selling Hokkien mee and wearing a Malay-Thai kebaya. The differing family situations and upbringings of Teh and Oh-aew also profoundly impact their emotional maturity and acceptance of their sexuality.

Moreover, ITSAY provides a strikingly realistic depiction of the challenges faced by students from rural areas, like Phuket, who pursue higher education in Bangkok. The struggles with their studies and the emotional turmoil of adolescence are portrayed with such authenticity that it mirrors my own experiences of preparing for prestigious college entrance exams in the capital city. The series resonates deeply with anyone who has faced similar trials, making it an incredibly powerful and relatable watch.
