I'm not sure if she's a demon or whatever, but I do think her anger came from some kind of desperation because she probably 'feeds' on wishes or some sh*t, it must be what keeps her going. I agree though, most people, Westerners in particular, would be like 'Man, no.'
I went into this without reading about it and not even knowing who the ML's were, and I was pleasantly surprised to have enjoyed this. After reading the write up following the first episode, I'm actually keen to watch the next ep. Can't say I'm a fan of the actors playing the ML's but maybe they'll grow on me. So far so good.
Welp, it's getting a bit sleepy. Good thing it's wrapping up soon, dragging it out any longer is gonna' tank it entirely. That's the potential downside of 'slice of life' shows, they get boring fast if they're not super well written and engaging. I mean, I really like the pairing and even the kid, so I hope it ties up nicely.
You know, I really enjoyed it, the acting was GREAT, the characters, the cinematography, and the horror part were all really well done and everything was going so well, but in the end, the show just didn't peak. It built and built but never quite hit for me. For that reason, it's an 8/10 from me. Would recc it though.
So far this show is qualifying as a background watch for me. I see many people talking about their likes and dislikes too, but personally I'm finding it hard to like anyone. Initially I actually liked Day (De? I dunno his name, the subs are bad), only to realize he's not even a main character.
I really like MosBank so I'll give this a try. I hope the script is better written than Big Dragon.
I really like them too. MaxTul have always been (and will always be) my number one Thai BL pairing, but MosBank are like MaxTul 2.0 imo. Big Dragon didn't do them justice and I'm hoping their new show will be better. Same for SantaEarth from My Only 12% actually, I hope they do another show together with a MUCH better script. Most Thai BL pairs don't interest me beyond a one time watch, but these three pairings are 🔥
It's really early, but so far I've got mixed feelings because right off the bat Seo Han Joon is great, a very likeable character. He has a subtle reserved personality, but he's also seemingly genuine, suitably friendly with everyone, reasonable and nice, BUT Jo Yoo Jae barely scrapes the likeable line for me. Like, even his resting expression screams 'not a nice dude', and then he's acting cocky and entitled and I pretty much wanted to punch him in the face.
Park Jin Hwan is far more likeable over all, and it's only episode 2. So, not sure if the writers are just swinging confidently for a home run because they've got some great game plane to make JYJ actually likeable, or if this show will strike out with a very mismatched pairing. Mismatched main pairings are the worst in my opinion.
But it's only episode 2, and I like the acting and natural flow of the scenes and dialogue so far, so let's see how it goes.
Dropped. Pretty much skipped eps 7 to 10 in chunks before giving up, it just gets worse imo. Messy story line, very forced pairings (was this show pushing Un and Two??? Why and how and when did that even develop? What about Lynn???) and there is no redeeming 'Khai' as a character. I don't care that he sleeps around, the fact that he is a pr*ck as a person in general makes him shi*t. Also, his sudden interest in Third after ALL that drama made no sense, and it was hella rushed too, he went from no-homo to all-the-homo between one episode and the next.
I know this show is 'old' now, but still. Anyway, 5/10
I am on episode six and I can honestly say I have never shipped any pairings LESS than in this. Ever. The only pairing worth anything is Bone and Paan, the rest can sink, fast and quietly, no lifeboats and survivors please.
I completely agree with you.. The first 9 episodes were all about Cake taking care of Seeiw as a friend. It looked…
I guess for me personally, I find scenes like that to be unnecessary. For example, I preferred that Eiw never blushed or acted weird or acted confused up until, and even after, the moment he realized his feelings for Cake were non-platonic. That moment when he was watching that movie, when it hit him, was more than enough and so nicely done imo.
That said, I would rather have watched a scene of them talking about their origins of their feelings in place of Cake's one sided, loaded English love spiel at the end of ep 12. That level of confession was too intimate for such a new relationship, it felt out of place, like it should have been saved for a 'one year later' or S2 scene. It was too much too soon and also a bit too static. But even though the show was flawed and my eyes were rolling through the first 9 episodes, it's still better than 80% of the other Thai BL's making the rounds.

How you gonna' drop that ep4 final scene and leave it like that!? Not cool.

Over all pretty sleepy. I'd say give it a miss honestly, unless you have the excess free time.
