So Tanrak has accepted his sexuality and let himself love Barth in the latest episode 4 which was sweet, anyway this episode could be kind of the calm before the storm. By taking time to let Tanrak or both of them fall deeper in love, I guess they were using this episode 4 as a build-up for the angst with more drama to come later. Now that the penultimate episode is coming, I don’t know if it will create as much tension and intensity as those previous episodes. I guess it will be somewhat intense though.

Wow, is this your first time to watch both Gemini and Fourth in any BL series...? Previous series they played together as a couple are ‘Moonlight Chicken’, ‘My School President’, and the Thai version of ‘My Love Mix-up’ respectively.

Their ‘My Love Mix-up’ was cute but just not as good as their previous two. If you wanna start with something cute, heartwarming, and wholesome, I’d recommend ‘My School President’, otherwise it’s ‘Moonlight Chicken’ if you want something heavier or more serious.

Haven't read the novel. Do you like the novel?

Which episode are you up to, have you watched episode 3...?

Oh sorry, that was a typo, I did mean 'TTH'. It's true though, he directed both series.

That happens to remind me of GeminiFourth's next project which is a musical.

I think episode 2-3 are pretty good. Why don't you finish episode 2 and give episode 3 a chance? If you still don't like it then I guess this is not your cup of tea, and of course it's totally fine if you wanna drop it. I understand that everyone has his/her own cup of tea.

P'Aof is the director of the series. He is also the director of some other GMMTV's series like 'He's coming to me', 'Dark Blue Kiss', 'Bad Buddy', 'A Tale of Thousand Stars', 'Last Twilight', and 'Moonlight Chicken'.

Interesting how different you feel about these two series, 'TTF' and 'BB', and they both share the same director who is P'Aof.

Oh the song which Barth sang in episode 2 when he first joined the choir, and also played in the latest episode 4, "Before" from 'Modern Dog', a popular song in Thailand around that time.

If I'm not mistaken, the novel with the same name is based on the writing of the series’ original script. I think GMMTV is selling the Thai novel in its shop.

I also saw somebody posting a link to read translated novel in English in his/her comment, but you really have to scroll down a lot to find it. I don’t know whether it’s fan-made translation though.

I think 'Love You Teacher' has already ended.

This show is based on the novel with the same name. If I'm not mistaken, I heard that the novel and the writing for the series simultaneously had been developed together around the same time. I think GMMTV has released the novel for sale.

I also saw somebody posting a link to read translated novel in English below, like maybe a day ago, so you can just probably scroll down to find it somewhere.

I guess Buddhism is LGBTQ+ friendlier in general, so maybe queer conflict can’t really get built up to the point that it can become a premise related to Buddhism in which queer topic is not such an issue, and therefore that’s probably why it seems harder to do this kind of story in Buddhist context.

Thailand did have series with its religious Buddhist theme as a premise within its own culture, just nothing to do with queer issues though, like for example the series “The Believers”, with scammers taking business opportunity to exploit people's religious beliefs for money, or “The Stone”, portraying deception or dark side of Buddhist amulet business.

I also saw somebody posting a link to read translated novel in English above. I think it’s not far from our comments around here, so you can just probably scroll up to find it.

Somebody who already read the novel wrote a comment above that it was good. I guess you can scroll up a few comments to read it.

'Ticket to Heaven' is based on the novel with the same name. If I'm not mistaken, I heard that the novel and the writing for the series simultaneously have been developed together around the same time. And now GMMTV probably has the novel in its shop.

Oh I really like them both a lot. Why don't you finish 'My School President' first since you have only two episodes left to finish.

GeminiFourth's next project...? Do you mean the musical...?

I’ve been reading people’s comments and while I was seeing comments like it was “too depressing” or “too intense” as you mentioned, I think I saw more comments expressing a bit disappointment that this official trailer wasn’t as dark as the previous pilot one. So I feel like more viewers actually are afraid or concerned that it won’t go as dark or heavy with awareness as they expected.

I myself wonder how heavy it can turn out and will surely watch this show. I don’t mind that this trailer looked a bit lighter than the previous pilot. Don’t really know if the series can become somewhat gut-wrenching. Just hope that it can really bring proper awareness and deliver something as heavy to the point it’s supposed to be, and I’ll just be all right, fine with it.
