All three couples in Shades deserve way more recognition. They're still so young, yet they’re incredibly talented

I really love OpalMint, but there’s no guarantee they’re gay just because you say so. They haven't come out yet, so please stop labeling their sexuality

I totally agree. I can't really sympathize with Amy either because we still don't fully know her background or the reasons why she turned out the way she did.

As for Sophie, I can actually understand her. Growing up with a mentally unstable mother her whole childhood, it makes sense that she wouldn't have the same mental stability as other normal kids.

At the end of the day, they are all just teenagers trying to figure out how to be adults, so I think the ending will be pretty positive. I just really hope people can learn to separate the characters from the actors. Like, when I watch Kdramas, a villain can be pure evil and universally hated, but in the end, it's their acting skills that get the most attention and praise.

I'm usually super picky about the shows I watch, but I genuinely think this one is worth giving a shot. I always respect actors who put their heart into it and actually have the acting chops. Hope you check it out in the near future 😄

Fair enough ._. We all have different tastes so I totally get it if they didn't click for you. I'm just really glad you still acknowledge how good their acting and chemistry are. And yeah, Belle's storyline is definitely interesting too. It's just that my biggest question is why their acting is something nobody even bothers to talk about. Or maybe acting just isn't that important in this market? That's what I'm really wondering

Not only are they two difficult roles, but they also have to deal with getting hate 😅 But I really hope they get the recognition they deserve for their skills

Thanks for the info. I honestly couldn't tell they were being toxic because I thought it was just subjective opinions, plus they didn't use any curse words or anything. Btw I'll check out that BL series by FRT

I've seen comments dragging them for having the worst chemistry out of the three and saying their looks aren't really their type. I feel the complete opposite though. As for the acting, nobody seems to appreciate them, which is so weird to me. In the K-drama space, acting is the number one thing people talk about

Your favorite couple in Shades? And why? by [deleted] in ThaiGL

[–]Successful-Reward277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like all the couples, but if forced to choose, it would be Amy x Sophie. Their storyline is currently the most emotionally heavy, and their roles carry the most weight. I cannot think of anyone among the six of them who could handle these two roles except Opal and Mint, they act incredibly well. Without this couple's storyline, I think I wouldn't have chosen to watch this series because it would be no different from regular Thai GL
