Great series. Maybe let down by the last two eps.

I really like that we've moved past university (or worse, high school) stories, and I applaud the plot and theme of the story, which is that clinging to the past only brings sorrow.

This is a charming series, with a superb actor in Daou, who gives a deep and mature performance. Offroad is infectious with that smile, but he did pale a bit in comparison to his partner, perhaps partially because his character isn't as interesting or deep, and doesn't really have that much agency - he more or less gets dragged along by fate or whatever else is happening. He's clearly been hitting the gym, because... woof.

The cast is extraordinarily attractive, with not only Daou and Offroad, but Pond, Gumpuns as the hot priest, and especially See as Vee's friend Ton who we don't get enough of.

There are a few things that did diminish what could have been a better series. One is the 2D villains, who would twirl their mustaches if they had them - they were cartoons and lacked any depth, context, or any defined role in the plot other than being evil. I liked that although we revert to the female villain, she's not evil so much as selfish and bumbling. This is all Lakorn-ish, including the overly dramatic musical cues, and got a little tiresome.

The other problem was the tonally dissonant last two episodes, which took way, way too much time and made me ff through most of it (there's a +10 sec button on GagaOOLala). It was tedious and not fun like the rest of the series. This, like almost all Thai series, would have benefitted from being 2 episodes shorter - it's a bit dragged out to fill the time.

Still, you won't regret watching it.
