Okay, I cannot even understand a thing because no subs [these are the times I wish I had a personal translator], but **this** is too adorable anyway. I don't care that it's 3 weeks old. This right here will be the thing that holds me over until the actual "romance" in SOTUS begins:
My take away from ^^this^^ little piece of heaven: Singto/Krist couple are a Yaoi-girl's perfect fantasy; Krist is actually irl a year younger than Singto with a much *sweeter*, *shy*, *junior* personality that shows how good an actor he is in SOTUS; the kiss is to die for; Krist seems to rely on Singto and their aura of cute cub with protector bear is immeasurable; I cannot contain my emotions over the way Krist leans on Singto and the physical vibe between these young men; THE SINGTO/KRIST COUPLE HAS TOTES WAY TOO MUCH ADORABLENESS AND CHEMISTRY THAT I HOPE THEY DO MORE AFTER THIS ONE!!!
....**now goes to bed, pulls covers over head, and cries cuz of not understanding Thai**....
Watched the RAW version, and I'm starting to have a couple complaints. I hope the loveline doesn't dragout too…
I don't get it.... Is anyone watching the same show as me???
1. How does Em even have an attraction for May? It started in episode 1 when she grabbed him by the hand to help with getting Seniors autographs. She actually introduced herself directly to him and got his name. If anything, that was the opening to introduce May and start a regular romance between the two. They could have used this as a beginning to focus on them.
2. Kong didn't even know her and her name until a further episode and her getting in trouble because of him. They didn't need to make Kong her hero, they could have used it as a way to introduce her further to Em as one of his good friends and May's friends who know Kong as her friends. It would have still developed into the circle of boy/girl friends they have in ep. 4 but in a more straightforward way without any melodrama.
3. I think having Em/May be introduced to each other, having Em fall for her, then have May fall for Kong out of hero worship, that will ultimately end in her dissatified or hurt feelings, and Em's jealousy makes this "all over the place" and more complicated than it needed to be. ...and to be fair, ALL the relationships are PLATONIC at the moment. No one is dating anyone. ...BUT.... The ties of romance are being drawn in the script towards a certain OBVIOUS direction and there's a LOT of emphasis in episode 4 that there will be melodrama in the future.... and this was the vibe I was hoping to have this show avoid.

Well, when you watch ep. 4 there is now developing a square love angle. With Em liking May, May liking Kong, Kong being nice to May making Em jealous, and Kong pining for Arthit's attention. I never suggested that there should be any "forced BL", how could there when, even with his "strong" attitude the "feminine" one is Arthit NOT Kong, if you pay attention closely. Kong is not the type of guy to force anyone to do anything. From the beginning he said he'd seduce him.... My issue is that, for me, they are unnecessarily setup drama between friends where jealous and cultural mores could create a lot of hurt for a lot of characters. I didn't want this to turn into a mess.
From ep. 4, the boy/girl jealousy lovelines were getting way more attention. Without knowing the dialogue, I was fine with the basketball "friendship/teamwork" but that got less attention, than the secondary lovelines. What I'm saying is that if the b/l loveline gets dragged out more than a few more episodes, the feelings of the others will get more solidified and, frankly,I LIKE the girls in SOTUS, they are sweet and nice and good characters to admire, and I DO NOT want to see any of them HURT over a b/l connection... which seems to be the direction it's going towards. Now, I hardly see Kong hooking up with a girl, BUT that doesn't mean May won't get hurt. ...that's where I'm coming from...
...I'm not sure where you got that I wanted this to be a "FORCED" b/l relationship from what I wrote, though.... *shrug*
Watched the RAW version, and I'm starting to have a couple complaints. I hope the loveline doesn't dragout too long and there is way too much boy/girl interaction for a b/l series. There's barely any b/l to be seen... although the push/pull from Kong/Arthit is still pretty cute, they don't get enough 1v1 scenes for my liking, right now. Hopefully that will pick up.
I haven't watched it yet, but based on what everyone says it sounds like it's the new replacement for Boss & Me,…
@Vivi Thanks for the info. I know ppl say that Boss & Me has a triangle but honestly, even when she kissed him, that triangle was always 100% pure one-sided. Something I loved realizing was, the 1x I watched I was really bothered by the triangle because I'm so used to K, TW, & C-dramas going all messy towards the end esp. when it's 20+ eps. I guess I was walling myself in from getting hurt... but when I watched it over again the 2nd & 3rd etc time, I realized Feng Teng's character had pure love and Shan Shan was just clueless to realize it. Loved the line, "Shan Shan, do you know how to reel in a Big Fish?" I loved it being the guy doing the heavy lifting for once. ;)
@kdramasinpajamas I watched My Amazing Boyfriend although I wasn't as infatuated with that one, it was still fairly cute.
@Rin I excited at the thought that I was able to catch on to the writing being similarly without knowing that upfront. Definitely gonna say, if this ends up being near to or, as you all are saying, better than Boss & Me then Gu Man's gonna be an A+ writer for me and one I'll watch for in the future...
I haven't watched it yet, but based on what everyone says it sounds like it's the new replacement for Boss & Me, where they the OTP were just always so beautiful to look at and you never doubted the guy was head-over-heels even when they tried to make a triangle, thus, their moments together were always adorable. It was Boss & Me that made me realize that China has it in them to do "adorable" that doesn't end in trainwrecks.
Glad to hear they finally came up with another one!!! ;)
Anyone else thinks Arthit is really tsundere? Haha. He's actually a huge fluff ball when he's not angry.
Totally! I saw it when Kongpob called him "cute" when he has his "serious face" on... He totally looked flustered & blushing like a little school girl with her 1st crush but then realized he's supposed to be "unaffected" and does that little fist jerk like he'll punch someone but he just cannot bring himself to do it because he loves the compliments SO much. hahaha.....
This was fine. Way too short with only 4 episodes but, even then, they seem to be struggling with a storyline concept for these two.... the whole gay thing was really forced. I know that GMMTV with its SOTUS series and all is trying to be really "accepting" of it but let's be honest, the gay community only makes up less than 3% of any population so making it out to be that everyone is possibly 50/50 gay to straight is a bit far-fetched. So, when a guy straight up says he likes you and isn't gay, especially if it isn't a forced relationship and he has nothing to gain by using you in any fashion, you should probably take it on face value that he really, truly isn't gay. Acting like you're still trying to figure that out while you're dating him doesn't lend for a "romantic" drama. She looks and feels like she's really not sure she likes him or not or likes guys or girls or not. It's just a really weird concept all together. Can we move past the 2 extremes: 1. the self hating gay person, and 2. everyone can be gay given the right circumstances.
Okay, the ending of ep. 2 had me squealing because Arthit is so flustered he don't know how to react.... ...and the preview of Kongpob teasing Arthit about "pink milk" and telling him "you like me, right?" ....lol.... Glad we're finally gonna see Kongpob tame the savage beast. ;)
furrits is still in the process of subbing this, she updated 8/30. She said that she heard others were subbing it but that she was going to completed anyway and to be patient.
The title of this drama is Dear Fair Lady Kong Shim. It's supposed to be about Kong Shim. That's what the title tells me. ...but let's be honest, for the last half of this drama Kong Shim was almost non-existent. Kong Shim had no further character development and, if I might be so bold, actually digressed in her development to a certain extent. Frankly, the writers for this drama failed miserable in their execution!

My take away from ^^this^^ little piece of heaven: Singto/Krist couple are a Yaoi-girl's perfect fantasy; Krist is actually irl a year younger than Singto with a much *sweeter*, *shy*, *junior* personality that shows how good an actor he is in SOTUS; the kiss is to die for; Krist seems to rely on Singto and their aura of cute cub with protector bear is immeasurable; I cannot contain my emotions over the way Krist leans on Singto and the physical vibe between these young men; THE SINGTO/KRIST COUPLE HAS TOTES WAY TOO MUCH ADORABLENESS AND CHEMISTRY THAT I HOPE THEY DO MORE AFTER THIS ONE!!!
