My guess is probably Q1 2027 tbh, maaaaybe end of Q4 2026. Because JuniorMark has LOL to prepare for after MRS ends. And after LOL, they need to prepare for their concert in August. Assuming filming starts in September-ish, and filming generally takes 3-4 months, that brings us to the end of 2026. Nut and Hong (supporting roles in twenty-one) also mentioned filming will start at the end of this year.

I wish it could come faster too :( Ima miss Jumark sm after MRS ends. Ik Ju said we're getting Twenty-One soon after MRS, but his "soon" means smthg else 😅

And the way Pai's parents weren't even there at the "family" meeting. They are absent until the end

LITERALLY OHHHHH I WAS FUMING. Kids having to pay the consequences for their parents' actions and the parents still acting like the bystanders/victims!!! OMG

BOTH TIM AND PAI'S PARENTS AINT SH--!!!!!

serve face

Yesss exactly!! After ep7, we get to see the real Tim! He's annoyingly shameless and he knows it, buuut he sure loves Pai a lot 🥹

And npp I'm glad I helped. Lmk if you have more questions ;)

Haha no problem!! I actually love analyzing this drama a lot since it has layers and many hidden tones. Glad to help :)

Besides scamming people, I don't believe Tim was inherently bad. Even the scamming was more situational, as you said; he had to pay off his family debt somehow. And there's also the fact that his parents just left without a word; this would make anyone a little bitter.

I think Tim meant compared to the "perfect" Tim's demeanor of being calm, polite, and patient, his real personality was more sarcastic, impulsive, and straightforward. Basically, he has no filter and is more shameless. And we see that in the episodes after this. His personality isn't necessarily "bad," just not perfect!

Hmm, to me, Pai's hug to Tim was a farewell to the "old" Tim, the Tim who was the "perfect" partner for Pai. Because he hugged him after Tim switched back into that persona and called him Teerak... like maybe this was Pai's way of cherishing the last moment with who he thought he loved. It was his way of mourning and letting go of that version of Tim. That is why he (and even Tim) cried.

Depends on what you're looking for/expecting from this drama based on the synopsis. If you're looking for angst or a super complex plot with revenge, then no. If you want a romcom with a little bit of drama and emotional scenes, then yes. Both couples have good chemistry.

Do they end up working tgtr after she finds out his identity?

Any updates on this? Looks like it started filming a while ago

yessss

I'm on ep9 and I'm liking it so far! But can I ask if there are any misunderstandings in future eps?

thank you!

Is this the same ep changyu finds out too?

When does everyone find out his identity?

Happy ending? Any misunderstandings?

I so agree with you. I would have been fine with heavier angst, but I don't oppose the lighter path they took either. Siwaj told us that the "drama" aspect was like... 5%(?) if I remember correctly from the press tour AND the novel itself isn't that angsty either, soooo I wasn't expecting much.

But even so, my heart still hurt a lot throughout these past episodes, so I feel like it was... enough 😭. And it looks like we'll have some trouble with Kuea in ep 11 too...

After finishing today's episode, I have quite a bit to unpack. First off, Pai deserves better. I cannot believe he had to BREAK DOWN AND CRY for his grandpa, parents, and North to understand that he was hurt by the scam too. Even if Pai is a fully capable adult, he is still human. It shouldn't have taken all this time and a full-on breakdown from him for them to realize he has been hurting all along. I wish it weren't so easy for his family to be forgiven, but as long as Pai is happy...

Okay, let's talk about Tim telling Pai he's planning to leave. Some people saw this as manipulative, BUT I felt like this was a very nuanced scene. Tim stayed with Pai through this partially because Pai was all alone... so if Pai has his family now... I felt that Tim would have really left if that was what Pai ultimately wanted. Tim asked Pure to call Pai's parents for him to get his needed closure. He knew this could mean Pai would get his family and old life back and wouldn't "need" him anymore. Tim helped Pai get back on his feet like he said he would.

And we finally got to see Tim's real confession on why he likes Pai!! I also want to appreciate that Tim took his time leaning into their kiss. It was a silent ask of consent in case Pai wanted to pull away. JuniorMark sure knows how to nail a delicate, yet passionate scene. Even though it was cut short, we received their emotions well.

AND FINAALLY. You guys don't know how happy I am to see TimPai and YuNorth happily eating dinner together without the weight of the scams. Before, I was always saddened thinking about how everything is a lie... but now that the truth is out, I feel like the ending scene was beautiful. Overall, I loved this episode. I can't believe we only have 2 weeks left IM NOT READY TO LET THEM GO!!!
