Yes Bouns comedic talent is something i did not expect.
Or to be laughing that much. I think they got the balance right.

He is just the cutest.

I didnt think a vampire could be that funny - but Boun pull it off. He is so good at comedy.

its so pathetic.
Dont get me wrong, i love critical discussion but this person is just like an unintelligent annoying fly of no value.

I cant wait til I get to watch ABO (saving it). Looking forward to that and Revenged Love

I am sorry for your experience.

I do think that anything that sparks debate, uncovers the issue and makes people aware is a good thing.

Ideally I would like a balance between story telling freedom and responsiblity to educate and inform. I think both can be done.

I believe that producers of the drama have a responsibility / duty to educate & inform audience about issues that can trigger, what is unacceptable behaviour (some dont know), what to do in such a situation, available help lines etc. (They can do this by inserting a minute of material before introduction without interfering in the plot).
BUT I also want the writer to be free to write a story without moralising .
I as a viewer can exercise my freedom to decide not to watch.

I do think that we the public can push the industry to inform and educate the public at the very least especially if they are making money from such an issue. And knowledge could prevent or help break a cycle.

luckily this is quality so far.
Or did you just create this account today just to b^tch about this series?

I cant see why the drama cant be both dark, and also have the cutest (unintentionally) funniest golden retriever like vampire.

I regret watching this because now I have to wait each week, instead of being able to binge.
I was so sceptical after watching the trailer as I had wanted something darker .
So far I am loving this. its interesting, cute, and funny in a good way.
Boun has wonderful comedic timing. I never thought I would see such a cute golden retriever puppy type vampire. He aces this role.

The chemistry is great between the leads - and both are so ridiculously good looking.
Also Mark Jiruntanin is so stunning - his profile photo does not do him justice here

Thanks for the review. I was so hesitant to watch this (based on trailer) but thoroughly enjoyed it.
I wanted dark but actually loved the comedy side of it as well.
I am pleasantly surprised.

I found MGB cringe and not funny.
Im finding this one funny in a good way and enjoying it.

His profile picture does not do him justice.
I had to go and look up who played Methas.

Instead being opinionated abut wondering what its like, why dont you just watch it and then you can actually have an INFORMED OPINION about the show and director.

I appreciate that not everyone likes or will BounPrem or this series or the director - and that is fine as well. Its being ridiculous to sit there wondering what its like when you can actually watch it on youtube.

I dont think there is much we disagree on.

But its interesting how we interpret in different ways as well:
" except Khem wanted to ignore the DV. Due to this, it almost portrays the crime of the DV to seem lesser than it is,"
whereby I interpret this as people not wanting to get involved tells me there is a problem with their character and morals rather then saying anything about DV.

I also agree with you that they are using it to paint Khem of a higher moral ground which is unnecessary/pointless and why even use DV. And why do they have to make him perfect anyway?

I also 100% hated the husbands actions and villagers/peems attitude towards this issue - cowedly (and its essentially what society does - not interfere as its too inconvenient.).

My issue is more that people want to interfere and impose how a story or theme is tacked by the writer. I may not like the character BUT there is crossing a line by having an expectation of how a writer should portray a characters (perfect green flags), the behaviours allowed, and how a theme is dealt with.

I want the writer to tell the story even if I disapprove, irrespective if it mirrors or doesn't mirror reality. Its the writers fictional story.
And I don't mind people analysing and criticising either, but I feel people are dictating and censoring.
Im not sure if that makes sense.

Apologies for my comment - and being insensitive to your experience and making assumptions. You are absolutely correct in that you have every right to an opinion and to express it. I have always defended that.
I also dont particularly care if you dislike the show for what ever reason. And you have every right to want or prefer it to be written differently and to play out differently. I am sorry as I possibly misunderstood you.

My issue is more about how everyone wants stories to be "whitewashed." Im becoming overly sensitive as everybody wants to dictate and censor writers - about how to write fictional stories with no toxic behaviours, perfect characters, exemplary behaviour and justice for all in the end.

Its a fictional story and if I wrote it - the village would ignore the abuse, the police tell the wife to behave, the wife would be murdered by husband. The village all come together and feel bad they didn't do anything. And then in the very near future another incident takes place and the village ignores it again.

Note: i have not experienced violence (but well educated in hypocrisy )

People nowadays seem to want green flag politically correct characters who can do no fault. To me that would make it the most boring show.

The characters are just flawed and dealing with issues as most of us are in real life anyway. Thats why i dont get the hate.

In real life most abusers get away with it and also do considerable damage to their victims. A lot gaslight victims and those around them.
I dont think they tackled it badly. The reality is much worse.

In real life most abusers get away with it and do considerable damage to their victims. A lot gaslight victims and those around them.

So why do you get upset how they treat it in fiction? At least he didnt kill her. I dont get why people want to write woke scripts and have proper Justise and punishment and closure in fiction. Its a story and I want to hear it from the author - not how you feel it should play out. The author is not writing a WOKE script to satisfy only you.

If people have a problem with domestic violence then act out against it in reality - contribute to shelters, speak to politicians, rather then get upset about a story.

I also sceptical about this show. I wanted something dark.

But the people involved in the directing, cinematography, producing have a good track record. So i wont judge just yet.

You are a hypocrite.
You have no problem supporting a rapist like Lee Jin-wook in real life but you have an issue with fictional characters.
I cant even watch Squid games or Sweat Home because i dont want to support a rapist

So you have a problem with rape in fiction but not with rape in real life.

You should do some mesarch into China and censorship instead of asking me to educate you.

In the UK, less than 1% of rapists are convicted. He admitted to having sex without consent.
Acquittal does not mean he did not rape.
What kind of person defends a rapist?
