I am very concerned that bib overalls are going to make a comeback. Quit trying to make them a thing.

The actor who plays Beer is Nan from the promise, yes?

Usually the episode 11 breakup involves them actually separating. In this case, though, while they are technically still together, they are separated because Kawi is in the ICU where Pisaeng can't visit him. It looks like he can view him, but he's isolated.

Ugh. I wish they'd just banish SOTUS as a thing that we have to cover in Thai BL. Just run us a 4 minute montage since we know its going to happen. Absolutely nothing happened during all these rituals. I guess it was an opportunity to show how Dino gets jealous whenever someone else so much as stands next to Rak. Other than that, all that happened was that Rak fell down and didn't get hurt. And they almost got in trouble for flouting some made up rule, which they continued to flout and didn't face any consequences for.

Hopefully when Rak starts working at Mhee's bar something interesting will happen. But sorry, SOTUS activities at this point is just filler, doesn't add anything to any series.

In the first two episodes we had Rak losing his boyfriend to his best friend and the best friend slitting his wrists and going into an mental hospital where he talked about how his sliced wrists were beautiful but would be perfect if they were still spouting blood. And then Rak's former boyfriend shows up and attempts to rape him. But hey, yeah, this is supposed to be a simple cute series. Puppies and rainbows for everyone.

I think Tonkhao's friend who is moving away has the doll and was with her in the market that day. Either Tonkhao passed it too her before running away or dropped it while she was fleeing and her friend picked it up. The one kid indicated that she had the doll for awhile, so its not like something she picked up in the market that day. (Like she bought it from a vendor and it contains smuggled drugs or diamonds or a sim card). Anyway the timing seems off and the crime seems off. Like if you know a girl has a doll that you need, waiting around for her to show up at a market so you can run her over with your car seems to be an odd way to try to get the doll.

So far, I'm just relieved that it doesn't look like we will have another grouchy-happy pairing that KBL loves. Happy-happy is fine, for a change. Its also a nice change that we don't have a main character with some huge personal trauma to deal with, although who knows? I haven't read the webtoon or manhwa if there is one. We really haven't been given much backstory. Now, if I were a former idol, I might be a bit depressed that I needed to start the corporate drudgework, but smaller Jun seems to be chipper about it. At least we don't have him wandering about sad and locked in his room.

And it was nice to see two adult men flirting like hell so we don't have to sit through 7.75 episodes of "uke doesn't like seme to touch him" interactions over and over again. Or at least we SHOULDN'T have to do that, but who knows. It'll probably turn out that big Jun wasn't actually flirting and we'll have to sit through a bunch of "gay panic" episodes. But for now, they don't appear to find each other gross and would appear to have gotten over that phase where the idea of hopping into bed with another man makes them too anxious to function. Heck, if this were set in an alley in Itaewon and not an office, they probably would have hooked up by now.

Kawi fixating on a girl he cannot have for ten years and using that as an excuse for not trying to date anyone could mean he was asexual, but it also strikes me as a habit of a repressed gay man who is using any excuse to explain why he hasn't found someone.

At least for now, despite the fact that she's helping Lom emotionally torture a complete stranger with an elaborate scheme meant to drive the poor wedding planner insane, she seems rather nice.

Maybe it would help if we looked at this as being episodic TV rather than a serial. That would help explain why they are resetting the characters like its a sit com and the humor is based on Minato's reaction to any advances Shin makes. It more like a newspaper comic than a manga. "Oh, isn't funny that Sarge beat up Beetle Baily again? And Garfield scarfed down that lasagna? And Hagar lied to Helga again and his horns fell off? And how about Shin doing something again to jump into bed with Minato and Minato getting flustered? I like starting my Sundays reading this stuff." If you look at it like that, you don't have to worry about the lack of development and repetitiveness. Good grief!

I'm a bit confused about Ho Woo's motivation in episode 6 as to why he needed to prevent the Sanga Group from making another bad investment. I guess it was because YA wanted him to and he likes her. Orwas it to drive a wedge between Je Kyun and his largest client? Is he ruining the deal to rob Je Kyun of commissions on the deal to help VP An get her revenge so she'll back off from trying to get him fired? Not sure what was up with him.

Yeah, I'm not going to be satisfied if Suzy's death is just inadvertent. A bit disappointed that Sun's character didn't do more. It seemed like he was introduced to stir the shit, but in the end, he just choked Host once and walked out the door. I was hoping for more. Its kind of like he was hired because someone owed some favor to someone so they wrote him in as a red herring. Anyway, I don't think Zo actually did anything, even though Sun fingered him on the way out the door. Whatever happens next week is probably just the result of him losing Pitch and the fact that Gun seems to be walking back his promise to turn himself in. Sun was always the one with the best revenge motive for killing Suzy anyway, but now he's gone.

Honestly I was hoping that as Wayu kissed Weha, Weha said "Is that the taste of mangoes on your lips" and left it at that.

So its kind of like My Only 12% that suddenly changed into an anti-smoking PSA. Only with STDs. I don't know if this show can handle having a public awareness mission.

I ask myself that question all the time. Sheesh.

It's rather irksome that they deleted that and then moved on to the sweet tutoring sessions. So basically SA episode was just there as a stepping stone for Dino to rescue Rak and that last little push to get them over the hump to make them boyfriends.

Sadly, you know there is a very large BL contingent who will eat up that character complexity and hope that he gets an unearned redemption. Just because he's pretty and says he's sorry.

I wonder if they test these things with focus groups and the Thai fujoishi respond well to vomit, which is why we get vomit in every series.

Episode 5
Liked it, except I wish they would have just let Joyce be Ho Woo’s noona and not the resurrected presumed dead lover of Seung Jo. I really didn’t like that the only way the writers could think of to get her to talk to SJ was to have him drag her by the wrist out of the meeting. And if I’m Joyce, I’m firing whatever staff from HK I brought with me who stood by and let me be manhandled like that without a peep. That may looked dramatic, but it was dumb.

I figured that Haebit was killed for its IP. Sales Leaseback for the win.

So the next battle is going to be Audit vs Advisory. VP A looked stunning in white, but she was never going to win that particular battle. Heck, I’m surprised Jiseng Bank would have agreed.

I’m the real world, Ho Woo wouldn’t have been giving that presentation. Joyce’s criticism of that were correct. Man, they drunk some kool ad about Scam Tech’s prospects. Yeah, if only a mere 10% of houses were constructed using 3-d printing, they’d be in good shape. Lol. Is that all. Easy peasy. Im sure they’ll go from 0% of the market to 10% next week. Because if there’s one thing people like when building their house,es, it’s unproven construction materials.

Just started watching. I've worked at a large accounting firm for 25 years and I can see why its confusing to people who haven't worked for one. The premise isn't really accurate in that there is no way a major firm would hire a high school graduate for service delivery, and at least in the US, you can't sit for the CPA exam without a BA. But I won't quibble about that. I found the treatment that Ho Woo received very accurate. Its exactly what would happen to a first year without a degree. I thought they did a good job spelling out the various role of accountancy teams and the conflict between the profession's public mission and the profit motive.

I also had to laugh when he was corrected on how to refer to his colleague. Although over the course of the past 25 years, US firms have become less formal, that is not the case globally. When I started, every partner was a Mr. or Ms., and if you were close enough to one to get permission to use their first names, you did not refer to them by their first names when others were around. The Catty office chatter is realistic. So is laying out your photo id in order to make copies since those copies are charged to the client. Or were (again, in the US we don't do that so much any longer, but when I started one needed two different codes to make a copy. What I did find inaccurate was the fact that the managers and senior managers left their IDs out for him to use. He's so lucky. When I was a junior, they always just handed me a stack of papers and told me to copy it without providing me the numbers).

The catty office chatter trying to knock down someone who might be promoted is fairly constant. Referring to your audit accounts by code name isn't really a practice in the US. That's deal advisory and a transaction specific practice. However, a team member should only discuss client work with another team member. And never should it be mentioned whose tax work you are doing and what deal you are working on.

In the US at least, the kind of cross-sell that the vice president engaged in with the media company is forbidden and has been for the past 20 years. Unless he was talking about additional work from due diligence to prepare for the transaction, actual deal work like they described would be against the rules to perform for a public audit client. I'm giving that a pass as rules and regulations vary by country, and of course, the reason they showed that is to demonstrate that the Vice President is not an ethical accountant. He's the bad guy, so having him do something shady is fine.
