Yes, KJH definitely not giving me nice vibes. Still think CJW should let it go and use a pen name to write again for the time being if he still likes to write. And thanks for the insight on everything else

Yes, I've seen Drake in a lot of big dramas too. But he's also mostly in supporting roles. While sponsors sees the leads only, so as long as the leads appears to have the look and/or fan power to represent their brand than the company while sponsor the show and the lead actors too. But that's showbiz everywhere. If you look different from the majority you don't get recognized; like how Hollywood has/had been whitewashing Asian characters to avoid casting actual Asians for the longest time.

Here's the link to Bank's talk about his insecurities on his BDay:

Indeed, Bank is kinda carrying the show. While Mos' acting abilities are still inconsistent. As for the 4 unreleased dramas, my guess is they have never been announced so they wouldn't be listed in his filmography at the moment. Sponsoring companies are locally based, so having more foreign fans than Thai fans would not meet their profit margins, I suppose.

I do not get JungHyun and JungWoo relationship with each other. In the beginning I thought they had just become a couple but 3 years later they do not act like a couple at all, more like exes who are now only roommates. So far TaeYoung is the only likeable character. JungHyun seems a bit bipolar and sus. While JungWoo is just sad and depressing.

And I really don't get why JungWoo can't write anymore bcuz he criticized a senior writer. Like is the senior writer a gangster who'd kill him if he wrote again? Why can't he write under a pen name? I doubt readers or writers can tell who a writer is just based on writing style, especially since he seemed to only had written one book before being cancelled. And it don't seem like he was threatened verbally or physically, why he always look so afraid like someone's gonna find him and beat him up.

Yes, definitely rewatch the series on their company's youtube page Star Hunter Entertainment and leave positive comments so their company know they are worth investing in. Cuz MosBank are literally promoting the show on their own at this point.

I'm guessing when Leo and Jung Hyun started filming the director didn't see the chemistry, then they cast Karam and realized both of them vibe better with Karam and that's how the love triangle concept developed.

Yes, it's unfortunate. I know Perth, watched him in My Engineer and his youtube channel. I think even for him he hasn't been an only main lead in a series yet. He recently left that big company who plays favorites with their actors (him not included), maybe he'll have better chances now.

I actually think the first few episodes were more intriguing while the last couple episodes has sometimes been lagging. Otherwise it's nice to see the couple finally together.

Episode 7 was so very sweet with such beautiful cinematography. BUT... I would had loved it more without the slow dialogue, extended gazes, long pauses, prolonged two-shots, disjointed scene transitions and the slo-mo intimate scenes compared to their previous ones.

Honestly think Bank and Mos acted well for this drama, especially Bank, for what they were given. The original story is just bad. And the script, although said to be better than the book could had been better thought out. The editing is done oddly to make the pacing of the story sometimes too slow and boring; of course that could also be the director's fault.

But what I really came here to say is that, it broke my heart when Bank said (on his birthday last night) that he was the reason this series isn't popular and that Mos would be more famous if himself wasn't his partner. Because Bank had filmed 4 dramas already and this was the only one released. And that's so sad to hear that to this day he still faces prejudice for his foreign appearance. There's also rumors this series could had been longer but they didn't have enough sponsorship because companies are afraid to take a chance with a foreign looking actor as lead.

That's why I hope Bank and Mos can be given a second chance to be in a brand new series with a better story, script and director to prove themselves. It's not just about looks; if the drama is good more people will naturally support it. They have such great chemistry off screen (search MosBank Vlogs on youtube and you'll see) it would be a shame to have only this work to represent them.

You're welcome!

If I were to give this drama another theme song it'll be Mia Rodriguez's I LUV U and Bella Poarch's Villian. They love/want each other but they show it in all the wrong ways. In the real world they would be so wrong for each other, but in the BL world they are meant for each other.

Anyway, I hope we have a good amount of date time on the next episode, cuz they need it. And hopefully a sweet love making scene without the violence and wilding before the drama ends

I meant how the lead actor's met in real life was more interesting. Because Bank's (plays Yai) company was looking for new talent, so he was scrolling on Instgram and saw Mos (plays Mangkorn) thought he looked cute/handsome, so he showed his boss. Then later Mos was casted and became a trainee.

When they first met Bank thought Mos tried too hard to act cool/aloof so did not like him much. While Mos saw Bank was a social butterfly and was afraid to talk to the latter at first. Later they got to know each other through company social gatherings. Bank sort of became Mos' voluntary mentor-type which I believe is uncommon within the entertainment industry; they are technically competitors after all. Like Bank introduced Mos to all his industry friends and how to interact with those people.

They also started a travel vlog youtube channel together because Mos wanted to try being a youtuber and Bank liked traveling. And then Mos was casted for Big Dragon. While Bank tried really hard to diet so he could maintain the part of Yai, cuz he gain weight easily and he doesn't regularly fit the "BL bottom-type".

Now they are the best of friends. They currently live together in Bank's place while Mos is on school break. All these facts were gathered from their live chats and interviews.

I'm amused how we all agree this drama is a mess but still continue to watch it. For me, I guess I'm just too attached to Mos and Bank now. Their real life story sounds like a better drama plot at this point.

It's getting quite frustrating following the story. In general the pacing of the story is just bad. Some parts are so slow I need to press the speed up button especially Mangkorn's explanation of his "problem" which isn't even a problem. Like sir, we're in 2022, tell your dad you don't wanna marry. It's not like this is a political marriage or your family is going bankrupt so you have to marry into a rich family... unless it is? Then tell us more!

Sometimes I wish the characters had inner monologues so we know what they're thinking, instead of them surprising us with their next actions. Because their emotions fluctuates too much, and I'm like why, why are you acting this way!?

Otherwise, the NC scene was HAAAWT!!! But not enough to save the story or relationship. The boys need some time apart to grow up. Right now they're too self-centered and immature to work things out. One doesn't like revealing his true thoughts/feelings and the other doesn't know what he wants/feels. Right now they are just bad for each other.

But because I really like Mos and Bank. I will continue this drama. It's a tough ride though. And don't get me wrong, this drama is a fun watch but it can get frustrating at times.

think bank said during pr this is his new song, mv coming nov 8?

Heard from the youtube comments Mangkorn already liked Yai since sophomore year, in the novel. Not sure if they will include it in the series though

Actually, in the uncut version Yai had a ball gag on while Mangkorn pulled him by a leash during their wild night. It happened in a blink of an eye in the beginning of ep 2 though. The guy had a whole wall of wipes and chains in his office behind a curtain. Too bad they didn't showed more of the bdsm. It seemed to be a thing for him in the novel version, i think.

This drama is about 2 jerks who somehow fall into bed together; then for some reason feel drawn to each other due to: idk... insecurities? male pride? curiosity? Yai is an immature rich kid with daddy issues and bdsm sub kinks. Mangkorn is an arrogant, smart-ass, manipulative, flirty, player (more so than Yai).

The drama tries too hard to be everything: soft porn, melodrama, romance, comedy. And maybe the series expect the drama watchers to know the original novel, because there seem to be some parts of the story missing. Other than that the acting is pretty decent, for one being a newbie actor and the other a former model. But their are some parts where their shocked/frozen expressions last for way too long; too dramatic.

Honestly, I was riled in by the NC17 scene floating around instagram. Then people said the lead actors had a vlog youtube channel, so I checked that out first and really enjoyed watching them traveling together around Thailand. You can tell they are genuinely good friends off-screen. And that's why I decided to watch their drama. But I really have to remind myself they are not themselves in their drama, but their interactions sometimes reflect themselves in real life. Even the directors had to remind them to stop.

Anyway, I'll still continue to watch to see where the story goes. Because although the story is messy, it's amusing to watch.

Wish they hadn't made the beginning into their breakup scene. They were probably trying to setup some kind of expectation of the rest of the story. But doing the back and forth with the flashbacks and present or future (?) with indistinguishable times skip just made everything confusing. Plus their acting isn't up to the point where I can sympathize with their characters.

For Amagi, they made him too doll like. I like pretty boys but this doll-like aesthetic is meh. Seen his idol looks, so we know he's already cute and pretty without all that white foundation on. Other than that his comedic moments looked to forced and unnatural. I suppose they were trying to make him another Kouta from Mr. Unlucky but this actor doesn't have the comedic timing and facial expressions right for them to work. And he needs more vocal training, cuz the way he delivers his lines doesn't flow with the scenes.

Takara, slightly better than Amagi in styling and acting. Probably because he plays the aloof character type so his sleepy, sad boy look works at the moment for now. Otherwise, the next episode looks more interesting, so I'll continue to watch to see how the story goes.

The story is about 2 high school best friends Mieko (girl) and Michio (boy) who gets part-time jobs together. At the job they meet Eiji (a university boy), who becomes friends with them and later confesses to Michio.

The boys become a couple. And Mieko witnesses her best friend Michio falling in love and struggles with losing him, and falls into depression. While Michio struggles with realizing he is gay and how to tell his family.

Eiji turns out to be a not-so-nice guy. In the adulthood arc Michio will meet an old school mate (another boy) called Sugimoto, who takes notice of Michio's "loneliness". and looks after him.

Its been noted that even though it's a BL, in the manga it seemed to be in the point of view of Mieko (the girl).

According to some Japanese reviews I've browsed, the story is about.... (details in spoiler post below)
