Hmm, to me, Pai's hug to Tim was a farewell to the "old" Tim, the Tim who was the "perfect" partner…
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!
Hello lovelies,can anyone enlighten me the scene from episode 8 I guess l,the dinner scene between Tim and Pai.Why…
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.
guys tell me genuinely IS IT WORTH THE WATCH bc i only got 2 days of day off so i wanna spend it on something…
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.
I honestly am not bothered by how the series showed almost no angst between Tim and Pai. Yes, Tim scammed Pai…
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 ðŸ˜. 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!!!
I know Nana works under Empire, but I'm a little sad/disappointed she didn't wonder how Pai is doing too :/ I mean she worked as his secretary for a while and seemed really supportive of him too :(
What is really good about this show is that all the 4 main protagonists behave consistently and in line with their…
Wow, you ate and left no crumbs. Get them fr,, like you said everything that was in my mind. You're right about Pai's family, though. The best ending would be that he never forgives them because he gave his all to Empire, but they tossed him away like it was easy.
Alright, after episode 9, I hope that people can finally see why Pai reacted the way that he did. Tim's betrayal still burns in the back of his mind; it is not forgotten. Pai still pushed for a divorce and has tried to move on. The only problem is he can't because he sincerely loves Tim.
Tim may be annoying and seem like he's clinging onto Pai. Some viewers want him to give Pai space and leave him alone. I understand that, really, and if the circumstances were different, I would agree. But you guys need to see that Pai needed someone to care for him. His parents are MIA, his petty grandpa doesn't care about him, and North is too busy and tired from work. Tim is the only person that listened to him completely this whole episode and the one who understands him the most.
Tim's presence may be overbearing to viewers, but to Pai, he's a source of comfort that lets Pai know he's not alone in this world and that there is someone who worries for him too. I hope people understand this.
