A Thai BL trope galore in this simple storyline

This series is a classic enemies-to-lovers storly, centering around engineering students, and while it doesn't break new ground, it effectively employs tried-and-true tropes to craft an entertaining series.

The narrative follows Ai and Songkhram, dormitory heads at an engineering university, who constantly clash whenever their paths cross. Unbeknownst to them, hidden beneath their bickering lies a growing affection for each other. When Songkhram discovers Ai's feelings, he actively pursues a romantic relationship. Intertwined with this budding romance is the presence of a resentful former dormitory head and another student determined to see Ai and Songkhram fail. Additionally, secondary plotlines explore the relationships between Meen and Bright, as well as Nano and Pluster.

The series leans into the familiar tropes often found in Thai BL series, especially those set in a college backdrop. It incorporates elements like rivals secretly harboring feelings, one MC falling ill and being cared for by the other, and the cliché of maintaining a secret relationship while making it blatantly obvious. While the series delivers on these plot points, it doesn't delve deep into character backgrounds or their journey toward falling in love. It tends to jump from one plot development to another. A more comprehensive exploration of Bright and Meen's past relationship, as well as the cause of their rift, would have enriched the narrative. Similarly, the sudden emergence of Pluster and Nano's relationship lacks depth.

One of the series' strengths and simultaneously a drawback is its adherence to these familiar tropes. While it might seem typical, it also ensures that viewers won't feel bored or encounter jarring narrative shifts. The series successfully balances its reliance on conventions with its entertainment value. The two main actors deliver commendable performances, breathing life into their characters and crafting a genuinely heartwarming love story. It's evident that these actors have the potential to shine even brighter in more complex storylines.

In conclusion, the series may not revolutionize the BL genre, but it's far from disappointing. With only 10 episodes, it's a manageable time investment. The skilled performances of the actors and the decent background score contribute to its charm. While you'll need to overlook some subpar subtitles, the series is a worthwhile watch, especially if you enjoy the classic college romance formula.
