SOTUS is about a bullying hazer, Arthit, and a freshman named Kongpob who are both studying engineering. Many freshman are against the SOTUS System simply because they feel like the hazers are wasting their time doing squats and the like. Hence, the start with kongpob’s uprising
SOTUS is a slow burn BL series. It’s not like any other series that has kissing, hugging, or couple fights in first 2 episodes. So some of you might get bored in the middle of the series! But hear me out there are numerous points why I stay tuned to finish this series.
There is depth with their connection since they are from 2 different sides. I admire the conflict between the freshman and the seniors, it gives the main characters more conflict rather than just love, it's not just that plain love story! A different/fresh approach to BL series.
I love the simplicity of the story line. None of that too much complicated plot, which is so common within modern films. It’s nice to watch a feel good series, aside from the fighting. The fighting made the series a liltle bit interesting cuz it makes u ask what will happen next.
My problem with SOTUS is that the fight between the freshmen and Seniors kinda gets repetitive. Freshies does not follow, senior gets angry causing Freshy not to follow. I wish they kinda remove a little part of it. But trust me later on in the series your patience will pay off.
Actually I love Arthit the whole time! Cause I understand him that he's doing everything he can in order to serve his juniors! Krist portrayed the character well but I don't get the sense of intimidation out of him! But I can see the irritation and frustration in him as a hazer.
Kongpob was so cheesy! And I love it! He just hits on Arthit in the most random time and he always mess with him! Which I cherish since it's the only fan service we get in the early days of the series! And for me those were the highlights of SOTUS, those sweet and light moments!
(SPOILERS)I love Arthit's realization arc with his Girl Best friend and later on leads him into trusting his heart to pursue Kongpob! Then this is the turning point of the series wherein the relationship of Kongpob and Arthit started! Then it got a lot sweeter, I mean the kisses!
I get that the rest of the cast plays an important role to establish the main cast's relationship but I wish they put more light into the love life of the side characters I mean Prae, Goddess

SPOILER:Can we not Ignore the fact that Prae is Lesbian it could’ve been a good story
The Best Supporting Character goes to Bright! He just made the show a livelier! Every single time he was on air it's just so funny and special especially time's when they are all together! Let's not forget about Tutah he also made the series funny, but bright is on another tier!
(SPOILER) CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW THEY ROBBED PREM AND WAAD! I mean I don't know what happened to Waad because he suddenly disappeared from the scenes but I was kinda hyped up when Prem gave an advice to Waad when he was playing a game! I mean he bought medicines for him! SPINOFF!!
Let's talk about the cinematography! It's pretty normal and average nothing special! But can we fix the lighting I'm so sorry but sometimes the scene is exciting/special e.g like Kongpob sneaking at the campus at night or the beach scene! A good film needs a proper cinematography
And last problem is that I don't know if its the script or the acting. I can't explain it properly but some scenes are just cringey and not natural, don't get me wrong I love them and this BL series has a SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART to the point i don' want it to end
SOTUS is a feel good BL series. Although it has some flaws, not everything is perfect, the little moments between Kongpob and Arthit was just so special! If you want something light full with Kilig moments SOTUS is for you

SOTUS- 8/10
Wait for SOTUS S, this one is a lot special
