I originally dropped this but after seeing a RamKing fan video on YouTube I decided to pick it back up again. Naturally they became my favorite couple of the series; I could watch an entire season of RamKing and not complain.

[ BohnDuen ] - The main couple but maybe my least favorite. I just didn't really care for them. They're cute, but Bohn's jealousy and cat/mouse games got old quick. It felt manipulative - Duen would do something that Bohn misunderstood, then Bohn would get mad, then after Duen apologized Bohn would forgive Duen but not tell him and continue to play mad so that Duen felt worse and continued to beg for Bohn's forgiveness. This happened in nearly every single episode. I would understand if Bohn's insecurities stemmed from a fear that Duen might want to date a woman (which is a common cause for jealousy in a lot of BL dramas), but all of Bohn's jealousy was directed at men that really didn't even express interest in Duen (except for the one but even that had faded by the time him and Bohn were together). Long story short - if this drama was ONLY about BohnDuen then I would've dropped it and not continued.

[ MekBoss ] - I really liked the relationship that developed between Mek and Boss. It makes me sad that Mek's actor is most likely not coming back for season 2, but I'd also really love an actor that can speak Thai so they don't have to dub someone. That was the only uncomfortable thing about their relationship for me... But I really loved the way that Boss so proudly announced his relationship with Mek at the end. I'm excited to see what season 2 holds for this couple because I think it'll be fun watching them navigate going from friends to lovers. I love friends to lovers relationships so I'm excited!

[ TharaFrong ] - I didn't actually see this one coming but it's a cute couple. The ending though... "brother." Ugh. Poor Frong. I'm really interested to see where this one goes because it sounds like it could take some time to develop just based on Thara's words in the final episode. I'm just glad that Frong moved on from Duen and doesn't have to be used as some kind of weird plot device for BohnDuen drama (at least more than he already has).

And finally on to my kings...

[ RamKing ] - Honestly the only reason I returned to watch the show. I was bored in the first few episodes but I loved Ram IMMEDIATELY, and I absolutely adore King with all of my being. I love my little plant and dog boys. I want them to fall in love and just be together forever and live somewhere with a bunch of dogs and plants and quiet. Their scenes were so good and the development of their relationship is probably the most wholesome of all the couples. King really had to work to earn Ram's trust and is clearly one of very few people that understands him. I'm a sucker for relationships that aren't easy or immediate, so while it was a bummer to leave RamKing's ending "open," I'm also really glad that they chose to do that. It gives me something to really look forward to with Season 2 because I can't wait to see how their relationship further develops now that King has confessed.

CAST/ACTING - I really love the cast! There's a lot of chemistry between all of them and the acting was great. I'm looking forward to seeing how they all improve by Season 2.

STORY - The story is fairly straightforward. It's mostly character driven so there isn't much of a "plot" going on outside of the relationship developments. But I never mind series like that because I think character development - if done well - can be plot enough.

All in all, I'm really glad I decided to finish watching this and didn't just drop it without continuing. The first few episodes were hard to get through, but I'm glad I stuck around (even if it was just for RamKing). I've followed all of the actors on Instagram and I really recommend following Perth's YouTube channel! He speaks English, Thai, and Japanese fluently; it's really impressive and I appreciate his hard work to touch 3 groups of international fans.
