Entertaining but there is room for improvement
I had somewhat low expectations for this drama, but it was way better than I thought. Don't get me wrong - it wasn't the best drama I ever watched, and had some significant issues, but a lot of it was pretty good too!
The plot itself is pretty basic enemies to lovers - nothing new or revolutionary there. The main couple also didn't do it for me, there wasn't really much chemistry between the actors and it was quite obvious in the characters they were portraying too. I didn't feel any connection between them until well into the last episode, until that it was more like a friendship, where Bohn bullied Duen just because he felt like it and liked to get a reaction out of him. They don't kiss until the last episode, they don't even hold hands until the last episode, they barely even sit next to each other until then. To me, them as boyfriends, it was not very convincing at all. Their constant arguing and Bohn's "teasing" really bugged me until the end.
The best thing in this show was for sure the side couples, especially RamKing. The chemistry between the actors was very good, I could sense the tension and emotion between just by the way they looked at each other. King's persistent approach and Ram's silent affirmation put together with lingering looks and subtle touches was truly the best thing in this whole show. The way they interacted was very very good and seriously enjoyable to watch. The flower crown by the waterfall was just the sweetest, most thoughtful thing too, and finally everything culminating towards a confession. RamKing was by far the best thing in the show.
Other couples like Boss and Mek, a humorous but sweet and truly genuine connection with a cute hubby-wife nickname situation was a constant source of joy for me. Also the more grown Frong and Thara were refreshing to see and watch with their budding romance.
Pros in the series:
+ RamKing ; truly the best thing in this show. The chemistry is so good!
+ Other side couples were very good!
+ Many different type of characters
+ Cute husky dogs
+ A lot of fine details, such as the venus flytrap thing
+ Last 2 episodes were the best
Cons in the series:
- Main couple did not have much chemistry
- Constant arguing and bickering of the main couple
- No intimacy (not even hand holding) of the main couple, even though they were boyfriends
- Relentless teasing from Bohn where it stopped being funny or cute and got tiring.
- Excessive jealousy from Bohn and overall bad attitude towards a person he was supposed to be in love with
- Some annoying continuity errors in the plot
- I didn't really buy the emotions & feelings of the main couple at all
- The "I don't like men, I just like you" trope
- Main couple was, in the end, really boring through all 14 episodes until the literal last moment
That being said, I am very excited for season 2 and look forward to watching it, especially RamKing!
