Love in Translation Episode 1

One Stars

cute 1st ep, even though (maybe cause of the poster) i though they gonna meet in collage or university. guess not - but have to say, i wouldn't want to go into business with anyone like Pho Jo, he too much like a teen with a short attention span & him being on his phone all the time - i would murder him. **************************************************************************************also i didn't get why Yang who brought the money, has only 49% shares. weird, unless it was contracted like that cause O To is Pho Jo's bff. *******************************************************************************************************************************************************also the family dynamic would've been perfect if not for the older brother, i get him wanting his younger brother to stand on his own two feet & stop leaching off his parents, but he is overbearing & i really, but really dislike his secret relationship with Tag, it feels exploitative - given he is older then Tag. gives off vibes of someone that took advantage of someone younger cause they hero worshipped the older brother of a good friend. someone they looked-up too, cause of whatever deficiencies exist in their own life & were basically groomed. & the fact Phojai told him that they would stop being a secret once Pho Jo get a job, reaffirms my conclusion that dude is up to no good. as that has Nothing to do with their relationship, it's not like Pho Jo is Phojai child & he needs for him to be independent, before he brings home a "step mother". like plz*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: i am watching after watching Century of Love, which was cute & enjoyed the chemistry between the mains. but have to say (even though it looks like a wig) i prefer Daou with longer hair, with the buzz cut in the other BL he looks like a country bumkin & a bit gaunt...

weak start

Okay so i started this at 2 am this morning and then just finished it on the clock but uh that was a very weak start. It felt very long and not a lot of stuff happened, like could have done this whole episode in 10 minutes, but dragged it out. This is an interesting concept that i don't think i have scene before so i am excited, i have no expectations for this show if i am being honest but it should be funny, i guess. I like the couples off screen chemistry and i just finished their other show and saw they had this one, so yeah. Interesting but very weak start and lots of potential. Also i wouldn't know how to feel with my best friend dating my older brother behind my back but okay. That's it. Okay bye!

SPOILER ALERT! [8/10]

The first episode left a good impression on me. The production, editing, effects, and sound are great. The acting of the main characters is great and the supporting characters did equally well. None of them lack the acting skills to make the first episode watchable. Our main character is Phumjai, a spoiled brat who is clueless about the reality of being an adult, and a huge fan of a Chinese influencer who loves Thailand, Tammy. In an attempt to gain Tammy's attention, he wants to learn Chinese. On his way to sign up for a Mandarin class, he meets Yangfeng, a foreigner who is looking for a local business partner to open a mini market in Thailand. A misunderstanding happens that makes them dislike one another, but they end up in a situation that requires each other's cooperation. Poor the security guy who tried to break off their fight! I enjoyed the touch of comedy here and there. I'm looking forward to seeing the outcome of the secret Phumjai's friend and brother have been hiding from him. Phumjai will feel betrayed that Tag is dating his brother, but I don't think he'll make a fuss about it. My favourite character is Oto, Phumjai and Tag's friend. My only concern so far is Offroad's portrayal of Phumjai. I don't know if that's how Phumjai's meant to behave because he's very loud and childish. I think he's supposed to be naive, but let's see how it goes.
