kinda shocked reading the negative reviews for this, cause i Loved it(!), considering the ton of BL themed dramas and movies (from Thailand) i've watched - this is up there with a good ones... the acting was stellar, the plot was interesting not cliché-y. its a coming of age and coming to terms with being gay, or rather growing up in general - i for one loved this -
Chimon (who have to admit even if i've watched any of his dramas, i can't remember) but here he / his acting for-sure made one heck off an impression - loved how geeky he was and how the sec he took of the glasses (and yeah that whole scene was a bit farfetched considering what a meek personality Nack had in general - he couldn't stand-up to bullies or anyone in that school. but some random man trying to rob a kid - that screams violent criminal - he stands-up too?!? meeh) but had to get those glasses off lol, so we (well) his love interests would finally "notice" him -
this was far from perfect and i Really would love it if the director's of these BL's would just Stop(!!!) with the sexually exploitative shots of these young actors - the close-up - slooooow shot from top to bottom focusing on sexual organs or butts, and they in nothing but speedos - like we stuck in a 1960 bad-porno ugh plz - like i know sex sells. but it just turns my stomach when i see this shit - don't care if the target is female or male - we in freakin 2021, enough already!
other then Nack, loved his homies - they such a cute pure hearted bunch - true friends. a bit miss-guided at times, but at least their heart was in the right place and when they were needed, they came through. this whole movie was kind of a roller costar ride - started off normal teens, some bullies, some friends but wholesome in general - then almost turned tragic...
what i didn't get was Pong, why he and the other effeminate gays were such b*tches towards Nack?!? and them saying "oh he's gay, but hiding it..." - like WTAF is that a reason to target the dude - and really didn't get Pong (well hated the little f*cker) he kept stalking Nack and if that wasn't enough, he kept lying to others about him and putting him in hot water - even causing a bullying and beat down incident - like why? what, just cause? i really didn't get his motivation - there were so many others in that class, why target a quite guy that was so focused on his studies (cause he could afford a tutor or to fail to get into a community collage with bad scores) cause he knew how poor they were - its just being mean cause u can -
other thing, seeing the poster one would think there some love triangle here - there isn't(!) Petch was a good-looking d*ckhead and a douche, that wanted to use Nack to release sexual tension, cause he couldn't get with his gf (who went to school not far from them) like plz. Nack may have been tempted, but he knew better then to let a douche use him - plus the sec he backed off Pong came in to "steal" his guy, which back-fired cause as Petch said himself "he aint gay" and he for-sure wouldn't be taking Pong out, as if they a couple - he used him and took what was offered but that's about it - so Pong got his - even though dude didn't learn ugh whatever..
Toy on the other hand for sure was interested in Nack and if no-one intervened they might have developed into something - but in comes Nack's mother, a neurotic, crazed bible-thumper that seeing her son (just) sleeping on the same bed with his buddy, asks him the day after "if he gay or a lady boy, and if he had sex with that man he was sleeping with.." like talk about traumatizing ur own child - let alone coming to absurd conclusion, as if they were sleeping in the buff - it was so sweet and innocent, but i guess u see what u want - and her attitude let alone her calling Toy to tell him that her son was "obsessed with him, so as he aint gay - was he?!? he should stay away from Nack,,," - like plz how could a person be this evil?!? she basically shamed and scared both boys into the closet and now even if they were peaking out - after her, it will take therapy to even contemplate who they really r - well that's the case with Toy.
Nack in despair not knowing why Toy was suddenly ghosting him, decides he had enough - but lucky his friends show-up (cause Toy still has a conscience - even if he scared to admit his true feelings and rather push Nack away) he cared enough to call them and inform them they should check-up on Nack.
then Nack is left to pick up the pieces of his heart and just focus on the normal stuff and get on with his life - no happiness or perfection - just life.. his seeing Toy after a yr with a "beard" doesn't help his heart - but given what his mother did, not shocking - Nack on the other hand should've kept his distance and not taken the hand offered in friendship from Toy, cause that would be rubbing salt in an open wound, which in-spite a yr passing hadn't even begun to heal - it would take a lot of work for him to move forward let alone be ready to find love and be true to himself in-spite of that harpy of a mother - this was a very realistic movie and i loved it
