Episode 1 began like a puzzle of pain. Ice and Saint already knew each other, but the air between them was cold, sharp, and full of questions. What had broken them so deeply that even their eyes could no longer meet without trembling?

Episode 2 unraveled that silence beautifully. The idea of the notebook, filled with Ice’s handwriting, his doodles, his quiet feelings captured on paper, became a window to their past. Through those pages, we saw how they met, how laughter once replaced the tears that now stained their memories. It was such a brilliant way to tell their story, love written in ink, now smudged by time and regret.

Then came the heartbreak. Another father poisoned by homophobia, another wall built from cruelty. Ice arrived with a teddy bear, ready to congratulate Saint on his graduation, a small gesture but one filled with so much love. Yet, Saint’s father stopped him at the door, his words slicing through Ice like a blade: “Saint already has a girlfriend. Don’t come here again.”

And just like that, the rain that once united them became the rain that washed Ice away. He walked home drenched not only in water but in sorrow. He never knew the truth, that Saint never had a girlfriend, that it was all a lie, a cruel misunderstanding that grew into tragedy.

Ice’s pain runs deeper than the surface. A father who drank away his love, debts that chained his youth, and now, when he finally found someone to love, another father crushed that fragile hope to dust.

But fate was not done tormenting him. The man who should have guided him, his professor, his mentor, betrayed him in the most unforgivable way. Drugged, violated, filmed. His innocence stolen and paraded before the world that chose to judge, not protect. Instead of justice, he was handed shame.

Then came the final blow, his father’s death, the debt collectors’ cruelty. Forced into adult films, Ice’s body became currency, his soul left bleeding. Each night he closes his eyes only to face another nightmare, the same wounds replaying in the darkness.

Yet fate, cruel as it may be, leaves a single thread of mercy. Ice finds himself sharing a room with Saint once more. Perhaps destiny is offering him one last chance, a chance for Saint to become the light that reaches through the cracks, to remind Ice that love still exists.

Because sometimes, the most broken hearts are the ones most capable of love, if only someone is brave enough to hold them again. 💔

I get the anger at shitty parents, but saying you’re glad the professor’s wife miscarried is too far. Wishing harm on an innocent baby is cruel and takes away any moral ground.

Yes, the professor is evil and should be punished by law. The wife’s slap was wrong, but she didn’t deserve to lose her child. The baby is innocent and has nothing to do with this, it didn’t choose its parents, didn’t do anything wrong, and shouldn’t suffer for their mistakes. We should punish the guilty, not celebrate an innocent life lost.

Episode 12 & 13: Synopsis on GagaOOLala..
"After the marriage, Pinanong suffers from her husband’s coldness and lack of love. Her father then shows her photos of Saenkaew and Sasin kissing, ordering her to go through divorce and seize the family fortune. Realizing that Saenkaew and Sasin’s love is sincere, Pinanong decides to upend her father’s scheme"

My Theory is the key word here is “upend.” In this context, it means to overturn, disrupt, or completely reverse. When it says Pin decides to upend her father’s scheme, it means she plans to thwart or ruin his plan, going against his orders and stopping him from using the situation to his advantage. It carries a sense of taking decisive action to turn things around or turn the tables.
So maybe Pin will change and side with Prince Saenkaew and Sasin, letting them be together. Fingers crossed, I hope I’m right for the finale!

Yeah, I just saw it on GagaOOLala..

The final episode is two hours long, and here’s my theory:
Episode 12 (version 1) will be the happy ending, and Episode 12 (version 2) will be the sad ending.
Those who’ve watched 609 Bedtime Story will know what I mean, that series also had two alternate endings.

This is just my theory, but it makes sense. Why else would the final episode be two hours long? Why not just make it Episode 13 instead of breaking their usual tradition?

Both shows are flawless works of art, shining in their own way yet Love in the Moonlight touched my soul a little deeper and claimed my heart completely.

I thought GMMTV had a curse on their 11th episodes, but now it looks like ONE31 is doing it too.

So many people keep comparing the two versions, but honestly, I love both the Thai and Japanese ones. Why can’t we just enjoy them both?

Did you watch it without subtitles? I’m saving it for tomorrow when the subtitles come out on GagaOOLala. It’s already too sad to watch, even worse without understanding what they’re saying.

Uncensored version this time so they will not blurred out the Peach 🍑 like they did on YouTube

After 2 years on YouTube, the Uncensored version is coming out on IQIYI, this means that that they will not blurred the peach 🍑and NC scenes. Time to rewatch my favourite shows in 2023, this time in 4K with viable peach

Yes , it’s a BL. Boys kissing boys, gay romance, LGBTQ+ tags everywhere, so I’m not really sure what the crying emojis are for. Did the trailer/tags not make it clear enough? 😭😂

I agree, some Thai BLs have those sound effects that make you cringe. I think I know which show you’re talking about, I’m the Most Beautiful Count lol.

But there are definitely Thai BLs that feel more mature and don’t have that at all.

I like Japanese and Korean BLs too, but most of them don’t have fighting scenes or the police/mafia theme, which is something I’m really into. I’m probably the opposite of you though, I prefer longer episodes, around 50 minutes with about 12 episodes. The shorter 20 minute Japanese and Korean BLs feel too quick for me.

Have you tried exploring Chinese BLs? Revenged Love is my favourite this year. And if you like historical dramas, definitely check out Kill to Love. It’s not as high quality as The Untamed, but it’s the first Chinese uncensored BL, and it’s really good.

I don’t usually like old Thai BLs, but there are so many great Thai shows airing at the moment.

Recently, there have been some amazing Thai BLs - Khemjira, Love in the Moonlight and The Cursed Love. All three are mature with great plots. Especially Love in the Moonlight, give it a try and it might just change your perspective on Thai BLs.

I keep a spreadsheet of all the shows I watch, including the exact time and date each episode airs. The “Calendar” and “Episode Guide” tabs are super useful too. Once you’re addicted to something, you’ll do whatever it takes to make it work. 9 airing shows are reaching their finale this week, so I’m down to 19 now by the end of this week which is great, because it gives me more time to catch up on completed series.

I’ve already watched the prequel, but it’s still boring and confusing.

You’re not the only one, I’m confused too. I hate leaving a drama unfinished, and since there aren’t many shows airing on Sundays, I’ll just finish it. Only two episodes left anyway.

But honestly, it’s so boring and confusing.

You should check out “School Trip: Joined a Group I’m Not Close To” it just aired in Japan today and it’s so much better!

Haha, welcome to the world of Japanese BL. Just like you, I only started watching Japanese BLs this year too. From my experience, only Korean series usually release two episodes per week, while most other countries like Thailand, Taiwan, China, Japan, and Vietnam release one episode a week.
To be honest, I’m currently watching 28 ongoing BLs at the moment, so one episode a week is perfect for me. I definitely wouldn’t be able to keep up if they released two each week!
