BL Drama Lovers Club

 Jojo:

I’m looking forward to this. Although I’m not a big fan of Earth, I’m watching this for Pind. After seeing what a great job he did in 180 Degree Longitude Between Us, I fell in love with him. 

I'm also really looking forward to this one (= "Fourever You Project").

Yes, Pond Ponlawit was great in "180 Degree Longitude" (cute but also a very good actor). As to Earth, my opinion of him totally changed with "My Only 12%" (see a few posts up) - so I'll give him a chance with this and see if he's whiny but likeable, or just whiny and irritating. (Although I've come around, I can totally understand why many others still don't like him.)

Oh, and Bever Patsapon, too - such a cutie! I loved him in "21 Days Theory", a sweet, fluffy, funny school BL (Youtube "Rookie Thailand" channel, 2022, 4 episodes - so pleasantly short by Thai BL standards).

 Jojo:

@p43425 So that’s where I’ve seen Bever too! I

@Jojo angeliviki2022 : Speaking of Bever Patsapon and cutie-filled Thai school BLs, did you ever get around to watching "The Best Story" (Youtube "Rookie Thailand" channel, 2021, 3 episodes)? A few weeks ago, you asked about the missing subtitles at certain points, which I answered can be found in the Youtube comments (although I hadn't yet watched it myself).

Anyways, our exchange gave me the nudge I needed to watch it (things tend to get buried in my vast PTW list) - so thank you! It was way better than I was expecting - in fact, I loved it! Yin and War (from both versions of "Love Mechanics") were really good as the leads - along with various other cuties, including our dear Bever (although just in a minor supporting role).  The only major weakness as far as I'm concerned was the deficient quality of the subtitles - but it's definitely watchable with help from the Youtube comments.

The third and final episode was heavier and more emotionally moving than I was expecting (yes, I was sobbing in tears!), and one really has to pay attention to the ending to understand it, especially the significance of what Best starts to write on Dew's shirt, and what Dew then writes in Best's notebook. The explanatory MDL comment by "labcat" was an enormous help to me in making sense of the ending (but needless to say, don't read it until afterwards).

P.S. Now I have a sudden urge to re-watch "Love Mechanics".

 American Fan:

Me too! Is it on MDL yet, cuz I can't find a page to add the title to my PTW list. Actually I can't find Last Meal Universe either.

The information may have already been submitted to MDL but is stuck in the approval queue. This happens frequently. I have had to wait weeks for my edits to a drama page to appear.

I also asked about the missing subtitles. Thanks for pointing them out. I was able to find them in the comments and complete my re-watch. I 100% agree with @labcat's review. I really wished we got a Season 2 for The Best Story. 

 angeliviki2022:

I also asked about the missing subtitles.

Angel, so sorry - you're absolutely right, I looked way back and finally found it (p. 555), and it was you, not Jojo. At this point I assume we won't get a Season 2, but I would have also loved this.
