i love that you loved it! its a different take than a lot of BLs out there, a slightly sweeter and conservative love story. I love the religious and cultrual aspects.

It makes me sad to see the show getting low overall rating cause this show deserves a lot of praise.

Wow im glad to hear you say that. Yes that's right, this show also made me smile. I miss them too ;)

Thats sad cause this is cute, in the same level as Kieta Hatsukoi. I watch and enjoy iy even if i dont fully understand.

why the low 7.7???

I cant handle all the teasing since episode 1!

i actually liked this more than the Thai version.

hi, its good if you liked this drama, im not going to argue with that. I am happy that you were passionate enough to tell me what you think about it. Thats the good thing about all the contents we watch on tv, everything is subjective to one's personal taste - some find it good while others find them not so much. I love fantasy and historical series and them mixing it together was a great idea, however for me, not even my love for AHS and KJY can save the way this drama unfolded.

Hi TinyMoose. Unfortunately i havent seen the movie version and the Viki i have where I am doesnt show the movie. :)

Like i said thats your opinion. Your interpretation to what i said and written is full of assumptions. Where did i say i prefer Cake? I have never even mentioned him in my review, i dont even think anyone of them is inferior or superior.. Im not even trying to be progressive at all but you keep pushing the idea that i am homophobic and putting words in my mouth and assuming things i never even said at all.

Its useless trying to discuss things with wokes because they will push and interpret things however they want. Yes i called you woke since you keep calling me a homophobe, .you can keep calling me homophobic if it will please you but it will not chnage my mind too. Your strong opinion about my homophobia is as strong as my opinion about my dislike of portrayal of weak marshmallowy gay guys. Nothing will be resolved in this exchange but i still thank you for taking the time to write.

We can agree to disagree. If you see no exaggeration then its good. Things may affect viewers diferently, we are free to think however we want, it however doesnt change the fact that i still dont like gay guys portrayed as weaklings - got nothing to do with however they act, i just dont appreciate seeing gay guys in dramas like that.

I didnt even mention Cake in my argument. I dont even think the character Cake is better than Seeiw. I dont prefer Cake over Seeiw so please do not assume anything.

Well thats your opinion. This is my review and a mixture of my personal experience.

In my not so short life, being a gay guy myself, i have encountered and befriended countless of gay guys, and i will tell you that gay guys are the toughest kind of people. I have rarely encountered (in fact i dont recall ever encountering) a gay guy who is portrayed as delicately as Seeiw. Gay guys are fighters, and are survivors.

I have no problem with gay guys being portayed as soft and sensitive, it is when they exxagerate soft and sensitivity and liken it to being wimpy and weak - gay guys who always need saving, and gay guys who always falls on their knees and who cant even ride a public transportation to go home without the need of someone to protect them.

"Opinions like yours is why little kids as young as 9 are to this day still killing themselves please reflect and think about the repercussions of your opinions because YOU are directly sabotaging the acceptance of gay men.".

I beg to disagree. I want young gay boys to know to know that as much as it is OK to be what they are, life is tough and they have to stand o their feet to survive. They have to suck it up. Im not ok with telling them they need a prince charming to survive.

I kept watching because i like Santa and Earth together. However, yes, i hate it when they portray gay guys as someone even more fragile than girls. And yes id like to see Earth try to do different things he is so good as an actor

What is homophoboc about it, please enlighten me

Same here! I dont even understand why its getting this low 7 rating. its not perfect but its definitely not bad at all.

Hahaha, im glad we are still discussing this show years after it was aired. I love this show so.much and i have seen it multiple times.

I get that theyd be admitting defeat if they moved out. But it is family and peace of mind we are talking about. It' would be pride versus love of your family. In real life its not worth it. I get that its a drama and its a big part of the drama in the series. I just dont understand why they have to be side by side neighbors, even romeo and juliet doesnt live that close to each other. Although i wonder about it, it still not a big enough of an issue and i still love the show as is

Thanks!

I tried, really hard to like this. Its been a while since i saw it, and gazillion of other similar theme dramas has come along but i still remember how annoyed i am with Jean.

Shhhhhhh, dont talk too loud the fandom will hunt us down.

But in all honesty, i had very high hopes for this series but sadly it didnt deliver. Im actually surprised about the high score here in MDL. I still love the main cast tho

wow this just off the rails. I had high hopes, i guess we cant be happy all the time.

YESSSSSSS!!!!!
