Wow, this makes so much sense. As a casual viewer of Domundi series, who just started the show, I was finding Wan's character to be kind of insufferable in the first episode. Like he's being mean to everybody that's not Nine and that includes actors, their staff, and his own sister. I'm assuming there will be some good character growth since some many people still like it six episodes in.

You aren’t. I’m currently working my way through the eps and the amount of vitriol toward Zhou Yang vs Mingxuan is absolutely baffling to me. People hate ZY, but are sympathetic toward MX for whatever reason. ZY’s biggest sin, at least as far as I’ve gotten, is that he’s a coward, but MX is actually emotionally abusive to Shen Mo and it’s wild to me that people keep defending him with the “oh he’s flawed, but he loves him” bs. In the very first episode he told Shen Mo that he’d never let him and ZY be together, cause his sister wanted him. Even if that wasn’t true and there were better reasons, why say it like that!? Why make Shen Mo believe he’s unwanted trash vs treating him nicely or at the very least with neutral indifference. I don’t get it, I really don’t get it.

Also, Shen Mo himself pissed me off in one of the episodes, the reveal one. He kept berating ZY for lying to An’an and wanting to hide him and yet when ZY finally admits the truth to her when it all comes out, Shen Mo punches him in the face!?! I’m like what the fuck was that??? You don’t want him lying to her yet get violate when he tells the truth. Make up your damn mind!!

That part got me too. I'm thinking, 'Aren't y'all supposed to be rushing to save someone??'

Noooooo 😭!! It’s already annoying watching a decent show and having to deal with AI B-reels of panned out shouts. Why the production team doesn’t seem to care about catching scooter rolling down the sidewalk without a rider or cars rolling across the street into oncoming traffic is beyond me. Now we have to worry about and deal with AI-generated plots too!? Like did they fire all the people who could have even just looked at the script and gone, “So, this story has no plot. Y’all know that right?”

Right!?! To his credit, in many of the scenes, Rin does move to walk away, but then they end up saying something aggravating or rude that makes him turn around and feel the need to defend himself. Only he doesn’t defend himself, he just stands there getting shit on until Khobfa or someone else comes to save him. What he should do is, like you said, just tell them to eff off and stop obsessing over him.

I’m confused about the magic/curse too. At this point Rin has full awareness that Khofan has been considered a jinx his whole life. Has he never stopped to think that maybe his bad luck was his own and not from getting cursed? Also, how did it go from Khofan being “cursed” to Rin’s family being “cursed”? And it’s not like Khofan is his first love. Why was he never worried about losing Krit or him getting hurt while they were dating if his family was so cursed in love. That part came out of left field and made no sense.

And why on earth are Mochi and Krit still being so mean to Rin?? They can and should just leave him alone and go their own lives,

The second couple is pissing me off and confusing me so much. Why does Mochi have so much smoke for Rin and not Krit? He says it’s cause Rin broke a promise but Krit asked first. At first I thought it was cause he was jealous of Rin and wanted Krit to himself, but now that he has him, he’s still an asshole to Rin. It makes zero sense. If he didn’t fall for Krit until recently why wasn’t he mad at both? If he fell for Krit before, why is he reducing him to an FWB relationship and throwing so much shade to his ex?? Dude is the soreness winner I’ve ever seen and a terribly written character, him and Krit!

Qinglang was doing a performance for a livestream. In the scene right before when he’s talking to fans in a different livestream, he tells them that he’s not turning on the donate button (where viewers can give him money), but that they came tune in to his upcoming performance (i.e. support him by watching his art).

Wow, you hit the nail on the head in terms of what I was feeling too. I watched a few episodes to not be quick to judgment but I was legit getting an uncanny valley feeling with the acting, just feels too over the top and inhuman. I’m sure that was 100% intentional on the director’s part though, which….yep. Also yesss the older guy gives off such creepy vibes when he smiles and the younger guy is almost too shy/self-conscious. Once I started watching the show as if it were a caricature intended to make fun of other shows like it, it got better.

When there is no one let it comment and fight remember this post hon. Actual, since it’s so inevitable, just bring on all the data centers instead. Let one get built right next to you since you love them so much. Hope that you have the very future you fight for. Bet the brown poisonous drinking water will taste great to you 😘🥰💕💕💕

Terrible kisses, terrible plot, AI slop editing (why are all the signs in freaking Korean when they’re speaking Chinese???). Story sounds good from the summary but the execution is just not there. Oddly enough the chemistry and dynamic of the two main leads wasn’t bad until they were asked to kiss, which was like watching actors with were asked to kiss wart covered frogs. If you don’t wanna kiss a man, don’t audition for a BL, it’s that simple.

Hugely childish take. You’d care if you were living next to a data center sucking up all the water and polluting the air. What drives AI is usage and if people don’t watch AI shows, then companies will stop making them.

Man this show was so good. I can’t help but agree with all the bromance/romance comments though. Like, someone mentioned it felt like one of those older Chinese BLs, turned bromance that was one kiss scene away from being banned, and I just can’t unsee that reality now 😂

You didn’t! They completely flattened his character to create drama and it started way before that scene, back when the wishes messed up and He Xiang Yong cornered him while on his bike. At that point he knew wishes existed and something was going wrong with his. Then this random guy who he doesn’t know comes up to him and starts ranting about wishes and as opposed to being like, “Holy shit, how do you know about this? Who are you? What’s going on here?,” he dismissively calls He Xiang Yong a lunatic and then drives away. His response in that scene made zero sense and his character has been shitty ever since that episode. Like forget, best friend dynamics, how could someone ever tell another person, “Well, maybe you don’t deserve to exist” and that person not be considered the shittiest human being ever???

To My Shore used B-rolls of Thailand because that’s where the story in the show took place. Yes, it’s a bit weird that everyone is speaking Mandarin for the most part, but the show is definitely set in Thailand in the beginning.

It might explain the craziness but not the rudeness, though maybe that’s explained by the age part. Even still, it does make the first few episodes difficult to watch, but it’s good to hear that he mellows out cause he’s honestly a holy terror in the first few episodes. I mean who pushes someone into the water and then is nonchalant toward them when they say they can’t swim??

Unfortunately no. I’m on the 3rd episode now and it’s still the same. The Klao/Nakun character is still especially annoying. I really don’t understand his motivations at all. He’s in a foreign time era where he doesn’t understand the customs or practices and instead of trying to blend in and stealth learn how to get home, he keeps acting out, shouting about the future and needing to get home, and being rude to the people trying to help. Like how does he not realized this just makes him seem crazy to the people of that time? He also keeps trying to run away, but to where I don’t know cause he has no money, no other connections, and no idea where to go. It’s dumb, it’s so dumb, and I feel like I’m in the minority with this thought process with the way everyone keeps raving about this show.

Hands down the worst short drama I have ever seen. I'm actually shocked it managed to be so incredibly bad.

Production companies in China can make BLs as long as they only release them to international audiences. Shows such as these are banned from Chinese entertainment platforms in China.
