Ok deleting the link bc the consensus seems to be that it’s fake and I definitely want to support through official means if available. Sorry!! Hopefully we’ll get something soon. :(

For reference, it was from a LineTV International YouTube channel which looks legit at first but is actually fake so please do not watch from there!

True! Win’s acting is very effortless and natural.

Right!! Your scenario is so much better and you probably came up with it in like 5 seconds haha

Yeah I don't feel any chemistry between Drake and Frank at all (just like in My Tee) so I'm happy with less of them as a couple (individual characters are fine if they help move the story along). But this second side couple we saw a glimpse of in the preview for next week, I'm sensing some potential!

So I just saw in a Youtube comment that the name of P'Dim's band comes from the spell Ron used to turn his rat yellow in Harry Potter and I'm dying!! So in love haha (and disappointed that it flew completely over this Potterhead's head).

True! But that said, how much budget do you need to write a really amazing script? Talent is priceless! ;)

Thank you!!

I don't know that people are saying it's bad per se. I think a lot were just a little underwhelmed. For me, I just felt like they were trying to cram too much into this short amount of time, and it would have been better had they focused on just one couple maybe and/or the "mystery." It felt rushed and underdeveloped despite a great plot concept.

Great metaphor!

Ughh knowing that, it got me thinking...maybe it would have been better if Drake and Frank were given "bonus" time at the end of the episodes, like how in SOTUS S they did all their product placements at the end as a little side piece lol. Or just give them their own show if the character's have their own book. (Or just write them in more seamlessly lol).

What?? Another side couple!? I'm usually all for them but in this series, not so much! haha Maybe they'll only get a little amount of time like in other series, which usually leaves me disappointed but is something I'd be totally okay with here lol

Hahah I know! The way he makes Tine all flustered lol

Yes I would LOVE to see Sarawat flirt with someone else and then Tine gets jealous while simultaneously realizing his feelings for Sarawat.

Also....this look right here! Get you someone who looks at you the way Sarawat looks at Tine!

One of the things I love about Win's portrayal of Tine is that he has this sweet, innocent, naive look about him sometimes when interacting with Sarawat. Like when he's telling Sarawat how much he loves the band Scrubb and is asking Sarawat to play his favorite song for him (ok yeah the motive is questionable but the genuineness is there haha). Or just looking at Sarawat being his amazing self. I don't know how to explain it, but he just emotes so well!! It's a really good juxtaposition to Bright/Sarawat's bad boy broody vibe <3

Looking at posts from Lazy Subber, it looks like yes (hopefully that means it'll also be subbed ^^).

Yeah, I feel like as is (whether current format or movie, since it’s basically a movie anyway lol) it would have been better to just focus on the main couple and half-brother storyline, so that both could have been properly developed. What they tried to give us would have been better as a longer drama with more time devoted to building and elaborating everything. I think they tried to cram too much here and it didn’t work due to the time constraints.

Storyline was simple, nothing revolutionary (pupil falls for tutor, but relationship is frowned upon by parental figure), but it was cute. Dew was really adorable as Tone (his face and the pure joy in his voice when he saw the Charlie Brown figure....come on, you’d be lying if you said you didn’t melt haha), but in general the acting was a bit stiff. Plot was rather slow and not a whole lot happened within those 25 minutes. Overall, it’s what I’d expect from a low-budget short film. 5.5/10.

Yes I agree about lack of promotion and probably due to funding as you said (which if true is a shame because I feel this could have been so much better if they had the funds to really develop into a proper drama).

And haha sounds like we had the same mindset on UWMA; glad to know I’m not alone!

I feel like a lot of the BL community (who’s probably be most interested in watching this haha) doesn’t really know about this show? I kind of stumbled upon it somehow (can’t quite remember how), and shows like 2gether (brilliant) and Why R U (meh) are the current obsession over there, and Until We Meet Again (snoozefest) before that, so people may just not know about this one?

* General disclaimer: I know UWMA is well-loved by many but it is one of the most boring, overhyped dramas I’ve seen so I can’t hide my feelings when talking about it. Please no one come for me lol
