Nooooooo must save Neur for Praram lol

I can’t staaaaaaaand that! It happens with almost every popular airing drama, and it really irks me lol regardless of whether it’s praising or critiquing the drama. I feel like reviews shouldn’t be written until the show is complete and one has finished the show (unless you dropped it, but even then I feel like at least half or close to half of the show should have been watched). You just can’t leave a useful review after one or two episodes! Most of these initial reviews can just be comments.

Ahhh ok. Yeah, that is a shame though that not everything was translated.

Ahh the article you mean? Yeah, it’s troubling, to say the least!

I know :( I hate that line of thought too! And I’m also glad they changed Wat’s character for the show. He’s so charming and he and stone have such good chemistry (credit to actors of course ^^), and not to mention how insanely popular and well-loved this show is. Just goes to show you don’t need misinformed rape-to-love storylines to have a successful BL (or any show for that matter)!

Ohh interesting observation! I don’t think you’re reading too much into it. I’d say you’re probably right. (Especially thinking about how this kind of “joke” seems prevalent in many Thai BLs that I’ve seen). I definitely think knowing the cultural context is important in interpreting colloquialisms like that (for any language) because just as you pointed out, the translation may not be the most accurate, and foreigners (like me) wouldn’t even know the difference!

Were those scenes in the LineTV links though? To be honest I have yet to watch bc I’m salty towards the director/producer’s cheap antics lmao but I skimmed through both and they seemed to be identical? I was confused, though, that none or few of the teaser scenes were included (but idk if that’s what you meant). Guess they only used those for clickbait and ad revenue :/

This may help explain it: https://www.google.com/amp/s/undertheropes.com/2016/04/01/rape-culture-in-thailand/amp/

Agree with you—hate this trope so much. :/

Sure ^^ Yeah I’m confused now that it’s back to 4 lol Guess whoever changed it to 6 was mistaken

It used to say “number of episodes: 6” but now it’s back to 4.

lol yeah I’d love if they added different reactions like a laughing one and a love one as well.

Yep :)

Whoaaa when did this jump from 4 to 6 episodes? I missed that announcement haha

Ahh ok. Goblin was actually kind of boring to me lol *ducks for cover* and I put it on hiatus after two eps lol. But I still want to give this a try once more eps come out. Thank you for the reply!

Thank you! I’m going to give it a try once more episodes are released and see how it goes. ^^

Does it seem like romance is the main plot driving this drama or is it more on the side? I know it’s only been two episodes so it may be hard to tell at this point lol. I don’t mind romance in dramas, but I don’t like romance dramas, if that distinction makes sense haha

So they finally put it on YouTube with English subs (part of it, anyway, at least for now) but they made sure to include in the title “low budget short film” which, after reading what you wrote about the director’s statements, feels cheap and, I don’t know, distasteful? I get that the director wants to earn revenue from this, but the way he’s going about it leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

What!? I have not seen that. That is some shady stuff and honestly makes me question whether I want to continue supporting this series. I want to support the actors and people who worked on this, but I don’t like that behavior from the director.

Such is the curse of the side-side couples T_T
