Have you ever thought that Thyme and Gorya fighting is actually unusual for their viewers (F4 and schoolmates)? Because they are so used to seeing Thyme being mean to the students and the whole school are scared of him? There is a closeness between Thyme and Gorya that outsiders don't understand, like they are no longer strangers?

Won't tell, you're not 15 yet, or I will be said trying to trigger your mind again hahaha ;D

Hi Chibi,

First of all, I apologize if there is anyone, who did such analysis in the F4TBOF comment section, who got offended with what I suggested for people not to read the drama comments. Please let me know I will DM them or they can DM me with their grievances.

When I was writing this article, I didn't look down, neither had any intention to be sarcastic with any in-depth analysis I read in the comment section. On the opposite, I was actually amazed how you guys still remember the details and event sequences of each version. Meanwhile, having watched hundreds of romance/romcom dramas, I have blurry memory on HYD that may mess-up the details and confuse people if I take part in such analysis.

This article is actually the most challenging of all CW articles I wrote, because not only that HYD is a super popular story for about 30 years, it also has a lot of lovers as well as haters. For weeks I was contemplating how I should write this article to approach the readers. Therefore, since the readers can be complete newbies or never watched any HYD version before, I placed myself in their shoes and advise them not to read the in-depth comments because if I were them I will be confused and turned off with so many names. Imagine you try to watch a Chinese historical dramas for the first time, and you see the characters have Japanese/Korean/Chinese/Thai names. It's like they go to four different life times ;D

You're only 13??? So when you watched BOF you're underage, hahaha. The content rating for BOF as per MDL is 15+ (Teens 15 or older) ;P

Kavin is a true descendant of politicians... they do lie ;D

I remember in BOF, Ren's Korean character Ji Hoo comes back from France broken-hearted and becomes 'strange', he hangs out with Yi Jung ("Kavin") and Woo Bin ("MJ") at the bar with girls and the two find him odd cos he never done that before. That's the same with F4TBOF preview for Ep 6 when they say that "Ren has changed".

I'm just curious how Thyme will handle Ren flirting with Gorya right in front of him (in the preview)... but it's not necessarily Ren's fault either. I just want to be logical not team with anyone. If Kavin and MJ know Gorya had a crush for Ren, I'm pretty sure Ren knows it too that she had a crush on him but at that time in his mind was only Mira. Though Ren may saw all gossips from social media about Thyme and Gorya's date announcement, he may not know that Thyme is serious with Gorya. Cos when Kavin and MJ realize that Thyme is serious, they try to solve the problem by talking to Kaning secretly (by inviting her for meal at Kavin's place after the shop is closed). And the scene with Thyme and Gorya at the storage room is not leaked yet. So it makes sense Ren doesn't have any clue about the progress of Thyme and Gorya relationship. Besides, in a sense Gorya is not in a relationship with Thyme. She hasn't give the consent to be his gf. She refused that the amusement park event was a real date and didn't acknowledge herself as his girlfriend when Thyme announced it two times, lol.

Oh girl, you really have a dirty mind, mwahaha! I swear, I didn't even think about it when I made the last GIF and put it in the end of the article. I just wanted to lure the readers' curiosity for the last time, using their characters' own dialogues.

But now that I think about it, Thyme does say suggestive things the innocent ways. I suspect the screenwriters wanted to make his character like that, since he's supposedly the most unexperienced of F4 boys when comes to romance. He does smile after saying the "exhausting" word. Now what you say about the storage room scene? LOL

I watched till ep 5 too. Have you watched other versions before or okay with a bit spoiler? I will tell you why Ren is like that.

Sorry, I was away the whole day for IRL activities yesterday and didn't have a chance to reply. So, in the manga there is never any love triangle going on? Not the first one when Tsukushi has a crush to Rui, but the one that Rui actually falls for Tsukushi. I don't read the manga neither watched the first adaptation, which is in my opinion is the Tw one not the J movie. Then it appears the Tw version gave an idea for the rest of the versions to add in the love triangle? The earliest version I watched is the J trilogy and I remember that Rui and Tsukushi agree to try dating and she picked a dress etc for her first date thinking that she has to appear nice. Tsukasa drags his fiancee to follow them and he is angry when seeing Tsukushi looking so pretty dressing up while dating Rui, meanwhile with Tsukasa she just appear as she is. LOL

AHA! I got you! Yes,... you need to support Win by watching him LOL! Does he have a dimple or two?

If you want to wait until it's over, I suggest you to read some reviews. And the ending spoiler, if you want a certain ending. Did you watch any version? If you did, I suggest you NOT to read all spoilers. Because the fun thing is being surprised by the dialogues or small events that aren't in the original manga or other versions. Let me give you an example. The 3 screens put together about the interview with Kavin is not in any version I watched. I was eating when I watched that interview scene and anxiously waiting for an upcoming important scene following the interview. When Kavin says "... and we are not that good looking..." I actually burst out laughing and spilled my food. That kind of surprise, you know... ;D

If you would rename it, please without "romance" or "love" word. So many Cdramas' titles using them already... ;P

In WeTV you can watch the previews

It's his strategy. The ML is as cunning as FL. Remember what he said to Miss Du when they had tea? End of Ep 8.

which event with SLS that they didn't do in manga book?

I saw other versions shows the narration of the others too, but their characterizations are not deep. I only see the rest are more two dimensional characters: F4, FL's friends etc. Even FL narration is more focused on the love story instead of life story. The only know who somewhat has deeper characterization is the F4 childhood friend (ih the Korean version she cuts her hair at her party).

Yes to both ;D

It's pleasantly surprised that they decide to publish it before Ep 5 is out cos I wrote from Ep 1-4. I thought it will be publish like February or March hahaha. Go read it and what you think?

Second ;D

If you're talking about bullying problems, it's my wish put in the article that they will not only address it but solve it in a small scale (the Kocher high school). Like I wrote, it's not necessary that F4TBOF solves it cos the manga doesn't. But they wanted to make an impact since the problem presents in Thai society, as the GMMTV Director said, as might as well they give example how to fix it.

Oh that reminds me of Li Hong Yi and Zhao Lu Si's drama... they are so cute together!
