I got one too and reported it to Admin.

Here's admin's reply:

Omg I wondered what that message was. I did only get the notification because the user was already banned. I had luck

Unfortunately, I'm in a drama slump. At first, I thought it was lack of concentration, then lack of interest but it's not. It's been going on about a week now give or take

Not necessarily a bad thing to take a break. Get outside, enjoy the summer, go hiking or swimming or something like that!

I agree. When this happens to me, it just my brain letting me know it's interesting in something else. Like a craving you can't shake until you get it. 😆

Hello! I might be MIA for a while because I have several projects I've taken on so I'll just give a quick rundown.

Dramas

Your Sky: (japanese version) This is the first remake of a thai drama I am watching. Mainly because I hated the thai version (sorry for the people who loved it 🙇‍♀️) So far I dont have any strong opinion either way, but I do like how much more detailed the original version was on establishing the personalities in the first episode.

Your Third: Still not like this drama, I actually think I hate the second episode even more than the first 😅

Gen Y: part of my challenge here. I mainly started it because the second season is very poorly rated and I wanted to get that out of the way. 😉 I look forward to all the good dramas I'll have left. Also Bas!

Payback: ending up doing a rewatch watch party with a friend and ended up loving it even more 10/10. I didn't catch in the first run that Jay had the whole coo in the last episode planned so far advance until the rewatch. Also Sun's seemingly standoffish attitude toward Jay not so standoffish on the rewatch. More like a guy trying to resist temptation. 😂 Especially when you remember he had that daydream about Jay kissing him on the couch. He was just as thirsty 🤣

Deep In: already talked about this but another 10/10 for me. Still can't get over it.

Match Point: loving this more as it goes on!

Duty First Kiss Later & The Servant Prince: these two JBL's are competeing with Fake Fact Lips for favorite JBL of the year.

My projects

  1. Remodeling the backroom/old garage of my house to have a game/craft room + guest room for friends and family. Also a better laundry room and adding a window.

  2. 2 crochet projects. Doing a 2c2 blanket for a friend and a co-op project with that same friend (I crochet a sweater and she will crossstitch) for her husband.

  3. Building a retaining wall in my front yard (as I live on a hill) and adding a better mailbox and package delivery so the post guy doesnt have to climb stairs to my front porch in the heat or cold (poor guy).

Busy busy busy. 😮‍💨 plus keeping up will all these dramas and working.

Deep In : I just finished binge-watching it, and it was amazing. 10/10.

I was fully immersed from beginning to end. I loved both the main drama and the drama within the drama. Pulling that off must have been incredibly difficult, but because we got so many scenes from the in-universe drama, it worked perfectly. I actually wonder what the runtime ratio is between the main drama and the drama within the drama.

The switches between the two stories could have been confusing, but they were handled so well that I never felt lost. I also liked how the writing never felt lazy. Both stories avoided some cliché misunderstandings, which was a huge plus for me.

It's crazy that this was the first acting experience for both Ollie and Shu Yuan. Their performances were amazing, and their chemistry was perfect. Before starting the drama, I was a bit worried that I wouldn't be able to separate Ollie from the cutie he was on Boys Planet, but I had nothing to worry about.

I also liked that there wasn't a second couple. It allowed the story to stay focused on the main characters. The female characters weren't overly annoying either. Zhang Zhun's ex-girlfriend could easily have caused trouble for him, but instead she helped him and stayed by his grandma's side.

ETA : I also really liked that the final scene of the BL within the drama was the only one without the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. It really made me feel like that scene could belong to both stories.

The OST is really good too. I have it on repeat.

This is only the second BL I've ever given a 10/10, after Me and Thee, and the two dramas couldn't be more different.


I think it might be too much for me to binge-watch Payback tomorrow like I had planned after watching something this good today. 😆

Did I hear my name?

Ja, natürlich 😉 Vielen Dank für deine ausführliche Antwort.

I thought this might be a complicated matter, but you included in your answer the three dramas I was thinking about (BotW, TW, CC), so I'm very satisfied with your answer 😄


Have The Prosecutor's Proposal and The Lie We Lived in got any NC scenes?


Don't ask me why I always watch these Japanese remakes. I just do 😀

Your Sky ep 1

It's just the first episode, so I can't say much. I like Hinata, he's cute and adorable. When I first saw Oji I thought he came straight out of anime. He gives me those over the top, flower petals flying everywhere kind of vibes. Also here he clearly drugged Hinata, in Thai version it was more ambiguous. I'm not sure about Sora. It seems like he's one of those cold, emotionless leads. Muenfah, played by Thomas, was a man of cold demeanour, but I could feel different emotions in him. Let's hope Sora will get better with time.

Yes, the prosecutor’s proposal and the lie we lived in have NC scenes.

Also, Your Third with Max and Nat is another Copy A Bangkok drama. Same Director as ChermChey, Peach Lover, and Sutiny, 3 of the 7 shows I have dared to drop. I personally have decided to put Your Third on hold until it’s over. I wanted to see MaxNat and Peterpan but it’s just not my kind of drama, or humor. There are so many good dramas I don’t have time for right now, so I’m not going to watch ones I’m not enjoying.

Art Girl's ETA "President's Secret Mark" (Strongberry) is presumably BL.

jazme:

It's good that the MDL admins are reacting and aware, but as to the user, it's a same-day throw-away account, so it's likely that the scammer will be back.

The best defense is awareness. Needless to say, don't click on external links unless you're 100% sure they're genuine!

jazme:

You are too kind. Thank you! ❤️

Substantively that's probably true, but the logo on the poster is officially Mandee. As I wrote above, the lines often blur, especially in the case of Cheewin / Copy A and Max / Nat.

I haven't yet started "Your Third" but I will undoubtedly watch it through to the end because of my blind head-over-heels love for my most extra dearly beloved Fluke Natouch. (I also have a certain fondness for Max & Nat, but more as "old friends".)

p43425:

Who will Ohmkrit's new partner be?

Domundi CEO Aoftion has said that Ohm Thanakrit's new partner will be announced very soon, at the blessing ceremony for "Magic Lover". Recent fandom speculation has centered on Phupha, Ton and Matthis. Depending on how one interprets Aoftion's words, it could instead be a new hire. I'll also throw Nan into the mix, as he seems highly eligible without an obvious partner. (I'm assuming that Thee/Wave is a sure thing and that Pung/Nick is highly likely, and thus I'll keep them out.)

Personally, I'm putting my money on Phupha.

Phupha Siraphop 55%

Ton Saran 0%

Matthis Metharam 0%

Nan Nattanan 0%

Another existing Domundi artist 9%

A new (not-yet-announced) Domundi hire 36%

11 votes · Poll closed

So then ... time for more Domundi-obsessed speculation, because that's just what I do:

Following DMD Sport Day, with James and Ohmkrit conspicuously chummy, BL fandom is speculating that James might be Ohmkrit's new partner. What do you think?

Will James and Ohmkrit be partnered?
Definitely not. James and Ohm are both uke (or at least viewed by fandom as such), and Domundi invariably sticks to the classic seme/uke stereotype.
Sure, why not? Domundi lets their artists self-determine and pick their own partners - and it would definitely be a new "first", also in that both are "divorcès" (James formerly with Net, Ohmkrit formerly with Jimmy).
I have no idea, but after James's ill-fated foray into solo singing, I think his talents lie more in acting.

Feel free to elaborate on your vote. This is meant to stimulate a fun discussion!

Thank you, now I know what my next binge is going to be 😉

That's an interesting piece of information. I haven't seen any of the dramas you mentioned, but I feel warned 😅
