Love by Chance

Because the story stretches over 13 episodes it doesn't have to adhere to many of the standard formulas and with the large cast is able to follow several story lines. The two primary leads are so believable that it's painful at times, but you're always rooting for them. There is some wonderful comedy in the secondary characters, particularly from Surat Permpoonsavat as Pond, Ae's roommate. Despite his antics, craziness, and sometimes crassness, he still manages to get the girl. Following a chance incident that leads to Ae taking Pete to a clinic and then vanishing, they run into each other several more times before Ae finally gives Pete his number to call in case Pete finds himself in trouble, which is adept at. There is also a story line about one of the boys in Ae's soccer team that leads to a bit of heartache for a friend of Pete's. While many of the boys are fresh at acting they carry their scenes extremely well which leads to many smiles and a bit of wish fulfillment for people who weren't born in the current era and had not chance to live these experiences.

The show in itself was very good. The acting was very well done and the side couple was absolutely beautiful. There was another potential side couple whose story wasn't completed so we never know what they were. But the second season had its problems.

The side couple story seemed repeated and the main couple story they made us fall in love with on season 1 was deconstructed in season 2.

Overall a decent watch for the lovely side couple.

As I traveled along with this series, I found myself caught up in the honesty and the sincerity of the story telling and the acting.

Set in first-year university, Pete and Ae -- played by Suppapong Udomkaewkanjana and Perth Tanapon Sukhumpantanasan -- meet literally by accident when Ae crashes his bicycle into Pete. This is the beginning of the story of a growing, heart-warming relationship that blossoms into love. The two young men who play Pete and Ae work with the theme of first love wonderfully well and develop it superbly. Both characters are very believable and they are kind, considerate and gentle. While the show has it flaws, none of which are major flaws, if one watches with an open mind and can see that everyone involved is giving the very best performance that they know how to give, "Love By Chance" is a satisfying and enjoyable experience. I smiled most of the way through. It is a wonderfully positive romance between Pete and Ae, two young 18 year-old men. There is no nudity nor explicit sex scenes. These are left to the imagination. I don't know if it's the translation, but there is some occasional language could be considered mildly offensive to some. This is minimal, though.

Thailand is to be congratulated on producing this fine gay drama. While it is enjoyable watching for everyone, it will definitely help those young men who are coming to terms with their sexuality. As Pete and Ae show the world, at the end of the day, love is love.

This show is so sweet and well-done! i love the storyline and the characters are all amazing and loveable. it truly is a brilliant show

This is one among the best BL series I ever watched but the thing is that it has been stretched over a long 14 episodes where it could have been finished in 10 or 12 episodes. Also there are lots of characters which leads to lots of side plots and one thing I didn't like was the suddenly chompoo disappears, there is no end of Chompoo's story. In spite of all this thing I love this series because of Pete and Ae and the story of tin and can.
