I like the 3rd story WAY more than the second so I’m with you lol

I’m sooooooo sad to see this series end! It truly was the best series I’ve watched this year 💯 the plot line was so mature and realistic. It faced real life issues in our society today. There was a time that I hated the skin I was in, being me just wasn’t fulfilling because of how my peers viewed me. No my problems and issues weren’t the same as Akk & his friends were facing but I think everyone had an identity crisis through middle & high school at some point or another. As I got older I realized that the people who are meant to be in your life will love you and support you regardless of anything else and that’s when I started accepting myself and truly falling in love with myself. I am unapologetically me and that’s very much okay whether others like it or not. The entire cast and crew did a beautiful job on this show ❤️

I’m thinking they won’t legally be married but one is in a serious relationship with a woman but the imaginary couple seems to start catching outside feelings for one another. I’m excited to see this toxic mess 👏🏾

So far I like the first story the best but this one is a great deal better than the last one. I really didn’t like that one but I do understand why it was relevant because this type of stuff really does happen behind the scenes in the entertainment industry. It’s not the fluff that everyone likes to see, the scripted interactions between our faves onscreen or at fan meets. This toxic stuff runs deep MOST times and you’re lucky if you never have to deal with it as someone pursuing the entertainment world 💯

Yep! The screenwriter and director need to be slapped for this disgrace lol

Rain & Phayu carried this show but it’s a dishonor to them that we were given literal CRUMBS of onscreen appearance of them in these finale episodes. Like we NEEDED to see them together because they were the only freaking couple that was intriguing to watch. Ugh I’m irritated.

Same! I really pray that Em holds his word and doesn’t get too wrapped up in social life to write Name because if he does that will probably set Name back even more because he has so much trust in Em 🙏🏾

My student didn’t speak much at all but to his therapist. But never in full sentences at all. Now he was only 3 at the time so that could be also why his communication skills were lacking plus language skills are lacking in ASD people too so a lot played into his. With Name, his communication skills could have worsened because he was bullied so much and with Selective Mutism being a anxiety related disorder then this could have stunted his skills even more so. It seems like the only someone that he’s comfortable enough to speak around is Em. Maybe for him, Em is his safe space where he feels no judgment at all.

Well he has selective mutism which is more a anxiety disorder so he actually probably doesn’t fall on the autism spectrum. Most people with selective mutism only suffer from it in certain areas but can develop communication skills around people and places that they become comfortable around. He’s clearly VERY comfortable around Em and could possibly start to speak more to him. I actually had a student when I taught Pre-K who was on the autism spectrum but he suffered from Selective mutism and I was the only teacher in the building that he ever spoke to. No, he didn’t have full sentence conversations with me but he answer my yes or no questions and also would answer questions with one or two word answers but to anyone else in the building he wouldn’t speak a word. But I am excited to see how they develop his character! 😊

Name broke my heart. I hope he can come out of his shell and start to talk more so he can be reunited with Em 🥺 I hope that social life in Bangkok doesn’t drive a wedge in between them because I think that would tear Name apart and me too 🙁

I thought I was the only one who thought it seemed super unauthentic 🫢 I told my best friend while we were watching it together….it just doesn’t provoke the emotion that it should honestly.

It was a VERY awkward ending 🤦🏾‍♀️

You’re very right! They will do anything to make sure they make their money and that’s by pleasing the fans rather than the LGBTQ+ community unfortunately but it’s that way with everything in the world, as long as it makes money companies don’t care how offensive it is to a seemingly “irrelevant” group of people.

Attention drawn for sure. But I will say this, something can be a cultural norm without it being accepted fully by the people of that culture. There are MANY things that happen in the U.S. like racism which is definitely apart of our culture but is shunned by many people of the culture. I hope with this particular thing, writers will stop using the “wife” term but I doubt they will unfortunately.

Yeah that’s exactly why I said it seems like that term is a “to each, his own” type of thing. It’s all about personal preference and if someone isn’t comfortable with being labeled that way then it shouldn’t be used for them. But it is generally used in most Asian BL, whether that makes it right or not, well, that’s up to the viewers. I don’t use the term at all because a wife is a woman and even in heterosexual relationships (I’m straight), I hate when people automatically assume roles in the relationship are solely identifiable by gender. For instance, a lot of people feel like the man should be the bread winner (make the most money) but why can’t I make more than my husband financially? What’s so wrong with that? I don’t like stereotypical gender roles.

I agree with you. I do think in Asia is a cultural term for the bottom to be called “wife” because I’ve seen it done in Thai, Japanese, Taiwanese, etc dramas but I feel like if someone is uncomfortable with the term then it shouldn’t be used to label them. I guess it’s like a personal preference type of thing. I think Peak is so self-conscious about EVERYTHING and the fact that he feels less of a man because he’s been labeled the bottom makes this experience even worse for him. I do think Kla actually had feelings for him but I think fan-service and his career is DEFINITELY taking a front seat for his priorities whereas Peak’s feelings run a bit deeper plus he’s confused with all the pressure he’s receiving because of the idol camp. It’s a great start to a wild ride! I do think being on this show is going to put pressures and stress on him that he doesn’t need, and he really needs to come to term with his identity without those pressures.

I love that the brothers genuinely love and care about one another. Usually with these type of familial set ups the siblings are fighting against one another for power. They are truly brother goals 🤍 the mothers and the father irritate me. The mistress seems to be the most sensible one so far tbh.

Okay this third story is catching my attention way more than the last one. I think Peak actually likes Kla and Vice versa. The difference is that Kla doesn’t seem to resist the idea but Peak is having heavy identity issues and the fact that he’s been labeled a “wife” makes it worse because he feels like he’s losing his masculinity which makes him resist his feelings for Kla even more. I’m not for sure of any of this but that’s my impression of the first episode. I also think Peak is not cut out for this industry. He’s way too sensitive and the entertainment industry is CUT THROAT, I just pray he’s able to get through it because he does have vocal talent but a lot of people do and are still not mentally strong enough to be in that industry. Very promising first ep of this new story!

I love that in this version Tin & Muk ended up together and NOT just in a long distance relationship 🤍 this ending made a lot more sense and felt more realistic and right 👏🏾
