Title Bad Buddy
Regarding that destroyed pavilion... Does anyone notice that they come from Architecture and Engineering?

(A lot of symbolism in each episodes so far, just like the smiley and sad faces in Pran's room. Please pay attention to them!)

Architects cannot build something without people who knows how to actually build them from the parts (Engineers), while Engineers cannot build something properly without guidance from Architects to design for them.

They have to work together to rebuild that pavilion, and perhaps, stop being enemies.

I know this is generalisation, as Engineers know how to design too. But I think it's quite a nice touch from the director and production team to weave in this plot to reconcile the two groups.

(It's not in the original novel)

I think most likely Pran's parents (especially the mother) isn't happy that Pran was associating with Pat, less…
That actually happened because of that in the original novel story, except that it happens afterwards, like halfway through the story.

I love their chemistry but I'm just really tired of gmmtv's editing style and their way of telling a story. Fights…
Actually their fights do have reason, which we may find out later (or it may simply be interdepartmental rivalry).

But as I said, the fighting most likely will cease soon, by the next episode latest (EP 3).

I feel that it most likely will end in this episode. The plot and story is already moving ahead into Pat and Pran's…
Thank you for adding on that excellent point!

Great point of view. I agree with you. That shows both Pat and Pran, that they can rebuild everything together, if they want to.

Can someone please explain to me how was Pat responsible for Pran's transfer?
I think most likely Pran's parents (especially the mother) isn't happy that Pran was associating with Pat, less still performing together with him.

There is misunderstanding between the two families, just like in the original novel. So perhaps, Pran's parents decided to transfer Pran away from Pat to keep him away from the latter.

Alternative possibility:

If you watch the scene carefully, it's quite obvious that Pran was singing that song for Pat (He might have liked Pat since that early on), but maybe his parents noticed and wanted to keep him away.

Anyone else notice that the Smiley Face light in Prans room changed from happy to sad? I like how they added that…
Yes I noticed that too! And Nanon was great in portraying his emotions (that under bed scene)

istg i hate their parents, but w/o them the story wouldn't be as interesting as now. but i know for a FACT that…
If you read the original novel, you'd hate their parents, especially Pat's a lot more (but you'll grow to forgive them towards the end).

But I don't think they're going to make the parents so horrible this time round. That's what I think.

EP 2 was great! Not to spoil too much, but it has just the right amount of light moments to make us laugh without feeling cheesy.

At the same time, we got to learn more about both main characters' backstory, and see the development in their relationship! Plus some sad and heavy moments too (scenes in Pat's bedroom and the past high school time).

OMG that preview for EP 3. I can't wait for next Friday!This is actually the first series in which I am watching…
It seems that they are moving closer to relationship in EP 3!

And in a way, the director did bring some sort of separation (as per novel) but instead of after, it happened before (when Pran was transferred out of his high school because of Pat - probably because Pran's parents found out that he's performing with Pat).

Hope this won't happen again later!

The violence is just annoying now. I wish it ends because it's not a pleasant plot device.
I feel that it most likely will end in this episode. The plot and story is already moving ahead into Pat and Pran's relationship.

Them rebuilding that broken pavilion is symbolic of repairing that broken relationship between the Engineering and Architecture groups.

I just read a summary of the novel this drama is based on, am not sure am ready for the angst, I was so surprised…
The series may not fully follow the novel's storyline, as some parts had been altered (added or removed). The novel was great though, and I'm sure the series version will be great too!

I think one of the way to make sense of Pat's chat ID was to think of it as his childhood Chuunibyou-edgy phase,…
Thank you for the translation of that ID! :D
