What r u watching these days

Catching up on THK,I just finished squid game season 3(took a break from bl),still on Kpop demon hunters yk.

Knock Out - episode 8

It took me almost three hours to finish this episode because I am doing so many other things at the same time. I basically watched this episode as if I was skim reading, so I caught all the important events of the episode.

Glad to know that Itt has an excusable reason for his betrayal, and that despite the betrayal Mawin stood up for him and stood beside him.

As the story continues to unravel I appreciate the fact that we have established couples from early so that focus can be placed entirely on the conflicts (corruption, extortion, illegal fighting, societal disparities, etc.). We get to see the couples react and fight against issues as a unit while getting some lovely romantic moments. 

Based on the preview for episode 9 we will be witnessing the story getting very murky as it takes a dive into the underbelly of Thai boxing.

I also like it when the couples are established and then deal with other conflicts together, but this requires a story that is more that just the romance. I guessed that Phuwis might be behind all the evil doings—I never trusted him—but to have Pakorn involved as well is horrible for Thun. I like that the couples are being loyal to each other and forgiving, with the understanding that the situation goes beyond their control.

i would have liked more ThunKeen moments because they are so good together but im still enjoying the show a lot.

I'm loving Memoir of Rati so much! I get completely drawn in each episode, and everything around me just fades away from existence. 

Im also loving this show. I think the characters are already full of depth and emotion and I can’t wait to see what happens next.

my one complaint is that im tired of “you’re gay! Oh no we’re ruined!” Scandals. I know this is realistic for the time period but it hurts my heart every time. Why are people so cruel. 

while BLs with more complex stories are often more rewarding in the end, I need breaks for pure fluff so i don’t get too emotional. But I get emotional easily so there is that problem . Yesterday I cried during ballboy tactics, I feel you linger in the air, and the kdrama twenty-five twenty-one. By bedtime I ended up rewatching a little Your Sky for the forth time just to feel better. Yes, the one father is disapproving, but otherwise it’s a world of gay acceptance and happy endings. Which I always need more of. And all the couples are so adorable. This is pretty much my perfect comfort BL.

i said I was going to watch Your Sky but I ended up on social media watching endless clips and bts from Ballboy Tactics, Revenged Love, and the Next Prince. This was also an excellent way to boost my spirits. ❤️❤️❤️

Although I'm less sensitive about things, I likewise don't enjoy this particular theme, as realistic as it may be (and as it certainly was in the socially very conservative environment in which I grew up, where even the word "gay" was taboo). This is one of the aspects that makes me love Asian BLs, as well as some of the more recent Western series like "Heartstoppers" and "Love Simon": They make me feel good rather than crappy. (I can get plenty of the latter in real life.)

Absolutely! "Your Sky" is now on my go-to comfort re-watch list.

Yes, this social media stuff can be alarmingly addictive - and not only BL actors, also cuties such as one of my latest love interests, the fascinatingly adorable Hu Yetao (from "Chuang Asia S2"). I wish he would do a BL with BamBam! (See what social media is doing to me?  Argh!)
