yes, when I see your post about Season of Love in Shimane I remember that it was about ep5 and not ep3. I have caught up on all the episodes now, and you are right, their chemistry is amazing. Their scene in episode 5 is particularly beautiful. It definitely conveys how people act when in love. I love what you said about it feeling like intruding on a private scene between a real couple. I also like what you said about how it made you feel and react. I just keep thinking how much better their portrayal of attraction, love, intimacy is in this versus Kiseki Chapter 2. I don’t know what’s going on off camera but they are definitely showing us something lovely.
For anyone who decided not to watch this because of low ratings or bad reviews, I would say reconsider. I actually like the story and the characters. if you don‘t like explicit NC scenes of course don’t watch it (or be warned so you can fast forward) but after episode 1, which was boring, this has actually been an enjoyable series. It has some great chemistry, some really touching moments, and a simple but engaging plotline. The cast is also very attractive too. I actually put off watching boys in love so I could keep watching as many episodes as are out so far of this show.

im glad you appreciate our comments about intimacy. I love it when couples are able to convey feelings without words, whether through a look of love, a kiss, or through a sex scene. Language is not our only form of communication, especial when it comes to love.
As for Bangkok Boy, you are probably right about what Mr. Joe knows and I am terrified. I don’t want these characters to face any more hardship. Also I don’t want my heart ripped out while watching them.

if you like GreatInn you should try Wandee Goodday. It is the total opposite of Memoir of Rati in terms of setup, but still really good. I watched it before I knew either of the actors, and I just felt their chemistry was amazing. It is a story about a couple that starts with sex and moves to love, which isn’t for everyone, but they do a wonderful job with it. It is one of my favorite series, not because it is such an amazing story but because it gives me everything I want from a feel-good BL: lots of couple interaction, great chemistry, sex scenes, romance, just enough tension and conflict to keep things exciting, and no need to wait for gratification until the end. (Plus I love men in suits and they get dressed up at one point.) As a side note, it also includes an asexual character which is great to see represented.
