 capybawra0w0:

 p43425:
I love Force/Book and Perth/Santa, but I'm now very ready for Junior/Mark, so I'm really looking forward to the start of the final third of "P10L" next week.

I too a excited for JuniorMark! I hope viewers stick around for it <3 

We’re on ep 3 of 2gether and my friend and I r starting to get impatient lol

We even considered skipping to Still 2gether cuz they’re taking too long 🤣 😭 (if I were watching on my own, I would’ve finished the first series by now so waiting is torture)

Welcome to today's episode of TeaTimewithTheo  The episode  name is "Ossan's love ep 6"

So cute I could feel Heng being jealous when he saw Ten talking to Mo hahah


Over all rating 10/10

I have some doubts as a kinda 'new' in BLs. I’ve always liked BLs, but I never followed them super closely since I watch a bit of everything. So, for example, I don’t know much about the fandoms, and now I’m learning more about how fixed pairs work in Thai BLs, I didn’t even know that was a thing. This year, I got more into some stories since I finally finished college and have more free time. I started The Heart Killers and loved it, then went on to High School Frenemy, which I really liked too. But as I kept up with THK episodes, I started noticing how bad everything actually was. Like, I already knew the script wasn’t a masterpiece and that it was more for fun, kinda like trash movies, but the acting is just impossible to ignore. Lily and Style seem really bad, and I don’t even care much about acting in general. But I caught myself wondering… what’s gonna happen to Joong in the future? He’s not exactly Oscar-worthy either, but if he’s Dunk’s fixed pair, does that mean they’ll always have to be the leads in objectively bad, but luckily fun, dramas? Am I overthinking this? I haven’t watched anything else with them together, only THK, but that alone was enough to convince me because I found it so shocking. What do you guys think about this?

RE Ossan's love ep 6. I agree. This episode was super cute. Heng thinking that Ten liked him, then Heng witnessing Ten and Mo holding hands. Mo finally figuring out his feelings.

RE: Joong & Dunk and acting - It's very subjective, as is all art forms. Our individual filters shape our perspective of what we see, hear and understand, whether it's the acting, visuals, delivery, story, pretty much the whole enchilada. 

So you're likely to get 10 different opinions from 10 different people, and no one is right or wrong. 

My own opinion is that THK could have been better and some eps were disappointing to the point of being unbelievable, lol, but at the same time I've been engaged and entertained for the most part by two sets of BL pairs that I like and that work well together. 

Actually, I wasn't a big fan of First & Khao until THK!  

My advice is to watch more of Joong & Dunk so you can make a more informed opinion.  😊

R u guys actually watching it together in person? Or online at the same time? It would be hard to wait for sure!!

I'm also less enthuasistic about "Heart Killers" than most other viewers. I liked Joong & Dunk much more in "Star In My Mind". (Disclaimer: My objectivity is not compromised by my crush on Dunk.)

Being a Thai actor in a couple pairing has advantages and disadvantages - but I get the impression that many of them prosper in the arrangement, building their careers while having fun, too. There are also some Thai BL actors who clearly don't want a fixed CP, which I respect. As to your question of what happens when one partner is holding the other back: Well, I guess they can "divorce" and risk the inevitable fan backlash - but as to me, I fully respect their right to self-determination, so long as they're not hurting anyone.

Thailand is also notable for actors largely being under contract to production companies (or artist management companies associated with production companies) - i.e. basically the studio system that Hollywood had in its early days. Again, there are advantages and disadvantages to this from the actors' point of view. For the industry, it means that they can crank out productions very efficiently. With very few exceptions, Thai BLs aren't brilliant drama, but as popular entertainment and money generators, they're hugely successful, in large part because of the many viewers like me who will watch pretty much anything with our favourite actors and CPs. 

To my fellow DMD afficionados-- we have a new actor. I spotted him in the last ep of 'Your Sky.' Maybe we'll see him later this year if we get a new season of DMD Friendship the Reality ;) 

(Also-- he seems familiar but I think it's just that he looks like another actor, because I don't think he has any previous work.)

We can’t watch online so we have to watch before and after school on my phone but the problem is sometimes one of us is too late in the morning and we only get like 15 minutes after school, also the ep takes forever to load lol

That’s why we only finished 2 eps last week, it’s actually a nightmare coordinating our watch time lol

I just finished ep1 of FC Soldout and I'm sold--

The premise is ridiculous but entertaining-- and the main couple-- I think they have it-- I'm invested in them already lol

Yikes, that's a pain! What we do for the love of dramas, lol

I liked Joong & Dunk much more in "Star In My Mind".

I liked that series! I looked it up and there's a part 2, a shorter set of eps. that I didn't see yet. Wait, there's even more titles listed.  It's time to break out a new drama notebook so I can track all this carefully.  

 This is the second or third BL series that I've come across recently with more than one season or specials that I never saw. I'm waaay more out of touch with drama land then I thought.  **sigh** ...more for me to watch.  

Maybe I'll rewatch Star in My Mind, since it's been a while and I'll get a kick out of seeing Joong and Dunk from earlier days. Plus JJ and Winny are in it too! Wow, I didn't realize it's practically the cast of We Are. (Where have I been?) 

And Pepper - I think he's been great in THK...with those sexy suits and glasses. He could be a main lead! I don't think he gets a lot of attention, or am I wrong? Is he paired with anyone, cuz I always see him single, as part of a friend or family group, but never really in a romantic role, like as second or third couples, etc.
