Welcome to the Farside of the Moon

Ep 2 - I’m dying from the hair, makeup and fashion alone lol.

But seriously, I’m in love with Man Love! My BL heart is all a flutter over Krailert and Naran’s library literary lip liaison.

This has political unrest, classism, sexism, bigotry and econimicism (that ain’t a word 🤣).

Script is scripting for me, ‘I’ll shine your shoes again if I ever get the chance.’ And this is what you call an OST, I still have BL PTSD from The Last Prince OST but this is not an interference or it’s own character, it’s sound design and engineering. Slot Machine, what a vocal in such a different genre for them, I hope ‘Am I in Love’ charts well for them, it’s on fiya.

Ep 1 - The psychedelic opening credits were groovy! Apo (Dr Trin) is lookng like the next James Bond, the cinematography is giving.

Miles (Tanwa) first track in the Moonshine band was sexy. Background music is atmosphericly on point.

As Miles alluded too in interviews this is a Man Love series and a fascinating look back in time at Thailand in the late 60s. I would say it’s had more script rewrites than many other Thai BLs moving this more into T-drama rather than a straight out BL and I’m here for it, the more sophisticated the writing the further this can go worldwide.

WOW is all I can say to Be On Cloud and Pond.
