I'm sorry maybe you missed some things but this isn't bipolar disorder and the show doesn't treat it like that,…
Maybe I missed the topic about " age regression". For my defense, I didn't watch it in English Subtitles. I watched it in my own language subtitles and I guess they mistranslated it. I've been interpreted it as some sort of bipolar (but not entirely) untill bow. My bad. I've been feeling really strange and akward with how the story is going because I didn't really satisfied with how the doctor handle the situation and how Pobmek didn't rush to doctor for the whole Episode 2. So I lost connection with the show afterwards.That's why I wrote this.
The intention and message behind the story are actually quite good, and I do like it. But there’s one thing that’s really bugging me, and I honestly can’t accept it.
The whole situation with Solar/Sun is basically framed like bipolar disorder caused by childhood trauma. Bipolar is not a joke, and it’s not something that should be treated this casually. It’s an actual psychiatric condition that needs to be diagnosed and handled by a professional. Yet in Episode 2, they spent the whole time trying to deal with it by themselves, and none of the characters even mentioned seeing a psychiatrist or reacted like this was a serious medical issue. That’s just very unrealistic.
Even when Pobmek went to see the doctor, the doctor only explained the condition and barely said anything about actual treatment (at least that was what the series showed and I didn't notice the doctor mentioned about the treatment).Then they basically came up with their own way to “treat” it, which made it even worse. Bipolar disorder is not something you can solve with love, patience, or emotional support alone. Support helps, sure, but this is still a psychiatric condition that usually needs proper treatment, professional care, and often medication too.
And the worst part is Solar’s mom. She barely seemed to care that much about Solar’s condition and only called once, at least up to Episode 3 since that’s all I’ve finished so far. That part was just very unrealistic and honestly hard to accept.
That’s what makes it frustrating because the story itself is actually good and I do like the intention behind it. But the way they handled Solar’s mental health was just careless. Most GMMTV stories actually have a lot of potential, but they always fall short when it comes to the screenplay. The ideas are good, but the execution is usually just mediocre. The stories have potential, but the production, the directing, and even the acting in some series are just average at best.
I know this is already good, but I really want to see them in a more normal, pure romance or rom-com genre or even slice-of-life. I think they would both be pretty well suited for it. It’s just that I’m not really into mafia-type stories personally.
I already feel sad and miss it. Although it has its own weakness , no other series in the same genre could ever pull off like DUANG WITH YOU did. The best of the best. 😭 It's already 3 am aand I can't sleep with this heavy feeling.
Xixi and Zhaozhao pretty much confirmed S2 in their live, but don't take it too seriously and raise high hope since everything can change when it comes to Chinese BL... LOL
They probably will rush thw story line in the last episode. I am sure that episode 9 is gonna be like all over…
You're right. The reason I like this series is because of the chemistry of the main leads. The directing did a great job and also the story is great too, but the screenplay somehow lacks something, and the side couple did nothing for the story and just felt like filler (dunno how they were in the book, though). It definitely has the potential to be much better than this. I'm not complaining, but I just want it to be better than this because I like this series so much. I just want to like it more.
It takes sooooo much effort to get in the mood to watch each episode every week with that unsynced voice-over. To be honest, I enjoy their live streams and real-life chemistry more than the series itself. LOL
I didn't mean the series is bad. I just wish they hadn't done the voice-over this badly. That's the weakest part of the series. And I'm also pretty sure they'll end this season without much happening since it's moving so slowly, even though it's already Episode 7. It feels like there's still so much left to happen, and everything is taking forever.
Ngl, as much as I hate the Nanny, she got a point. Like excuse me, why Qin was never hugged once ? Because they…
I’m pretty sure this kind of plot was intentionally included to reflect parents like Qin’s. But since it’s a rom-com series overall, it will likely end with a happy ending to avoid making the story too heavy.
The BL industry nowadays is filled with mature content because of fans like you, so don’t worry, there will be even more in the future. A cute, warm, puppy love type of show won’t hurt you. Even if you don’t like it, you can simply skip it. It’s a shame to rate this show only 1.5 stars. For people like me, who find unnecessary mature content annoying as FUCK, Duang With You is gold. And another thing, even though it’s more of a puppy love story and not very mature, I dare to say this is one of the best-written stories and has some of the best characters among BL series with a similar type of plot.
I think I can almost guarantee this series will go downhill toward the end because of the director. I thought the project hadn’t started yet, but it’s already on Q6. LOL. At this rate, there will probably be no quality at all. I hate how New keeps rushing projects and jumping from one to another without giving himself enough rest in between. That’s definitely not a good thing. Just take things slowly and rethink your work, for God's sake. Even if GMMTV is rushing, you're the director! Just make some qualities already , not just quantity.
how to retweet a comment on mdl!!! i wasn’t excited about finding out he was the director of my romance scammer…
As for Romance Scammer, I'm currently only on EP 4, so I'm sorry I couldn't read your comment completely. I was taking the show slowly because the early episodes are fun to watch. Both couples have nice chemistry, and the story is good enough since the production team behind it is a great one. But I was honestly scared about the later episodes because this director is very, very good at ruining things. 😂 Even though I haven't read your comment fully yet, I can sense that you're furious and disappointed ,which probably means the later episodes of Romance Scammer go downhill. Looks like another good potential has been wasted , Again!
He always ruins series with strong potential because of his cliché, mediocre, and repetitive directing style. Not a single one of his projects has met my expectations. I really wish GMMTV would change the director for 17th Spring and When Orange Falls, as they’re the series I’m most anticipating from the GMMTV 2026 lineup.
Both stories need authentic warmth, nostalgia, and real dedication, qualities he consistently fails to deliver. And just look at how many series he’s directing in 2026. No director should be handling that many projects in one year. It inevitably leads to overlap and creative fatigue.
I truly hope he drops out of the two series I mentioned. Otherwise, they might end up like HEAD 2 HEAD, another highly anticipated series that was completely ruined under his direction.
Another thing is that I don’t personally dislike him, because some of you might like his work and find his directing style suitable for you. I just wish he wasn’t involved in the shows I’ve been anticipating.
And let me be the villain and say one thing. Most of you BL fans set the bar too low when it comes to BL. That’s why directors like him keep getting so many projects, because many of you mainly watch for the actors and sometimes the story, but not the creativity or authenticity most of the time.
It’s not the 2010s anymore. Just look at the works from DomundiTV. Their production value and directing are getting better series after series. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like all of their shows, and there is only one series that I personally like. Still, it’s undeniable that their production value and directing are on a different level compared to some of the shows from GMMTV, especially the ones directed by this guy.
Sometimes it feels like BL is treated as a separate genre with its own lower standard, and that’s frustrating for someone who truly values filmmaking. If you really want the BL industry to improve, which it already is slowly doing, then you guys need to accept the hard truth and start setting higher standards and expectations.
You will understand my point if you truly understand the real standards and values of filmmaking.
Wheww, after this there's a feeling left in my heart that other BL drama always doesn't.(But I still enjoyed most of Other BL Drama.Especially Puppy Honey, Kiss me again,edge of seventeen and 2moons, so on..) For me it's The Best BL from GMM TV so far and I want more of like this. Not A forced-frame ones. It went to the top of My Most fav BL list that is throned by SOTUS The series. But honestly, That list only have twos, SOTUS and then, THIS ONE. he heh..
