En of Love: Love Mechanics focuses on a romance between two engineering students. In this Thai BL series, the heartbroken protagonist was recently rejected after confessing his love. He is comforted by a university senior, who helps him move on from his former crush. As they solidify a bond, their feelings are complicated by a lingering girlfriend in the turbulent love triangle.
Love Mechanics is the second story in the En of Love trilogy, although watching the other dramas isnât required to understand the plot. Technically, En of Love: Mechanics is the best out of the three installments, but its sloppy narrative still contains many problematic tropes. While I like the charming actors and their enticing chemistry, they deserve a better showcase than this messy BL romance.

En of Love: Love Mechanics Review
Review
Drama Review Score: 5.8

En of Love: Love Mechanics is the second chapter in a BL trilogy. Among fans, itâs usually considered the best out of the three installments. Compared to Tossara (the predecessor) or This Is Love Story (the sequel), itâs more vibrant and compelling. With that said, Love Mechanics suffers many of the same narrative woes as its counterparts. The writing is still terribly flawed, plagued with problematic tropes, and I wouldnât label it a good BL drama.
My favourite part of this series is the couple, portrayed by two charming leads (Yin and War) with a sizeable fan following. After completing En of Love: Love Mechanics, I totally understand the appeal of this pairing. Aesthetically, the actors look cute and compatible together. Chemistry-wise, they share a natural and easygoing rapport. From their flirty glances to their muscular abs, the BL package is very complete and presentable. For me, itâs all about War and his heavenly smile. I like Yin too, but not as much as I adore War. ð
However, what I enjoy about this romance has everything to do with the actors and nothing with their roles. My enthusiasm for this couple dies down whenever Iâm reminded of the actual storyline. Even though thereâs a sizzling spark, the characters donât spend enough meaningful time together to depict an authentic connection. Iâm perplexed why Vee acts so hung up on Mark. Dude, you just met him? His feelings seem disproportionate, like weâre missing huge chunks of relationship development.
Mark and Vee are unsympathetic characters whose despicable actions make it difficult to champion them together. Mark gladly gets involved with unavailable men in relationships and then sulks about being the third party. Vee is a serial adulterer who cheats recklessly, only to grovel for forgiveness after getting caught. I also donât like how Love Mechanics perpetuates toxic behaviour and pretends like they are romantic. A glaring example is when Vee tells Mark to cover up his ârevealingâ swimsuit at the pool, raising red flags for control freak issues.
En of Love: Love Mechanics is packed with heated arguments and tearful confrontations. It resembles a soap opera, keeping me entertained as the melodrama unravels with constant twists and scandalous antics. However, the story is too rushed, resulting in an incoherent narrative where events suddenly happen with no buildup. Some crucial scenes are oddly missing, explained through a mere line of dialogue instead. I donât know if Love Mechanics ran out of time or simply couldnât convey an articulate plot. Either way, the storytelling sucks.
En of Love: Love Mechanics is marginally better than Tossara and This Is Love Story. However, even the best drama in the En of Love franchise is still a far distance away from decent quality. The bright spots are the two actors, who exude an enchanting magnetism as a BL couple. However, the crappy material limits their potential and they deserve a more solid showcase to display their charisma. I know Love Mechanics is getting a full-fledged remake with the same cast. Letâs hope for significant improvements in their second attempt, fingers crossed.
Summary
Messy story
En of Love: Love Mechanics has a messy story that feels rushed and incoherent. The plots donât have enough time to build up organically.
Annoying romance
Thereâs an engaging romance in Love Mechanics, but itâs all down to the actors. The love story is poorly written and itâs hard to champion these annoying characters together.
Good chemistry
The actors (War and Yin) have a strong romantic chemistry that carries En of Love: Love Mechanics. They salvage the terribly written material with their charisma and rapport.
Happy ending
Ugh. Love Mechanics has a laughably contrived happy ending that feels undeserved. Why introduce so much drama if you wonât resolve it elegantly?
Plain artistry
Thereâs little artistry in the En of Love franchise. The production looks very plain with nothing remarkable visually.
58%
The actors bring a bit of pizzaz to En of Love: Love Mechanics, making this awful love story almost watchable. However, they deserve a better BL series than this poorly written material.
