I never thought that I would watch Boys over flowers. Then one day i came across this Thai version of the story, and decided to give it a try.
I have not watched any other versions of the story, (i donot wish to hurt anyone's sentiments), but i think this is the best version of the story (a bit modernized (the S korean version seems age old, doesnt interest me)).

Casting: it was definately good. Each and every character was beautifully portrayed by the actors. Everyone simply fits their respective roles. Actors cast for F4, they definitely posses rich kid vibes, and everyone looks so cool and full of swag and that pride of being the previledged. Tu fits for Gorya so well, i mean no glam & just simple pure innocence.

Acting: It was okayish. Majority of the lead cast being young age, i felt sometimes they are unable to deliver the expressions and emotions aptly. I felt Gorya was too loud. She kept shouting in almost half of the drama, which was a little annoying. Plus Thyme and Gorya keep fighting like 5 year olds, its irritating. Bright(Thyme) delivered weird smiling-like expressions, instead of serious emotional looks in some segments. But still okay.

Story:
A little bit of criticism from my side :
Its the same cliche story 'Prince charming'x 'Beggar maid'. Totally unrealistic (but thats what dramas are about , entertaining people & real life story aint entertaining anyone). I found it a lot similar to the 2 korean dramas 'The Heirs' and 'Extraordinary you'(just the school part (It has something like S3 group)).
In dramas like this, sometimes they exaggerate the rich people so much, that they are like everywhere, on the Tv, the billboard literally everywhere, and other time, they completely ignore their power and influence.
(For eg: when the anti F4 group kidnapped Gorya and threatened Thyme to come, what did he do? He jumped into the firepit, head-on. This is so unrealistically foolish and naive. He could've got both of them killed, then and there. There was no back up plan made no guards kept on standby, just the 4 friends, somehow magically defeated around 20 boys(similar in age). Its things like these, that look so pretentious, and make the script shallow, in my opinion.
Also, if someone gets bullied, the way its shown in the drama, its kind of next to impossible to ever fall in love with such a person. I find this concept utterly unrealistic.
Another thing that i really hated, literally kids in school, making huge decisions of life like marriage and stuff, like seriously. What would it take to make it a story about atleast college-goers, that would make more sense. Kids in school are pretty much clueless about a lot of things, and their thoughts, beliefs and fellings are vulnerable to change.
And yes no matter how rich and influential your family is, you need education to run a business. Thyme literally finished school and went on to become the deputy CEO at the singapore branch. Seriously what the heck.

But, It was not all bad and ugly, so
Coming to the good part:
It did bring on camera some good stuff (which i did not found anywhere in 'The Heirs' (and thats why i hate it)) like
- social issue like Body Shaming, promoting Self Love, Bullying(obviously)
-'Consent of a women' matters. I really liked it that, being so powerful and previledged how Thyme never forced Gorya to be in a relationship with him(which he could have easily done). He just tried his best and left the rest on her. He patiently waited for her to reply, which she did.
-Friendship- This is my favorite part about the drama. The frienship that the f4 had, was very special. I loved how dedicated MJ was, to keeping the group together. How patient, helpful and sacrificing Ren was, not just to Thyme, but to Mira as well. Not a fan of kelvin, coz he's pretty much on neutral grounds mostly, but we see a glimpse of his way of reciprocating, when he signs the deal as per Thyme's modified business model, to help him out. Also Kaning, she was a sweet &understanding friend to Gorya. This drama gives us a glimpse of what true friendship means, and how important it is for us to help each other and grow together, coz an eye for an eye will eventually make the whole world blind.
And yes, another best thing was when Thyme and Gorya had a fight sort of and Ren took her out on a date, and later Thyme got really furious and they have this fight in the school stadium. It was hilarious, all four of them, just fight each other & end up solving all their grudges, and they leave happily. (I don't know, maybe its a boys thing).
I also really liked the specific scene where thyme regains his memory after the incident, causing retrograde amnesia. It was sweet. (The best scene between them).
And yes, how can i forget Thyme's mother's (Roselyn's) heart change. While whatching, I was wondering what's gonna melt the heart of this woman. But it turned out just perfect. The way Gorya made Roselyn change her mind was just perfect.

On end note, the drama was fine, with the usual amount of drama (as expected from a drama).
