Ep 4 was so hard to watch. I applaud the production team for tackling such a sensitive topic. Unfortunately too many innocent youth are physically assaulted and face the same treatment from the ones who should protect them. Uea’s way of handling his trauma is not uncommon. The best thing he did was to leave that house. The next best thing would be for him to cut his mother off completely.
This is kinda fun to watch. Imagine traveling 27 years in the future and you are the same but your friends are 27 years older. It’s a little like the series Not Me but in the reverse.
I am absolutely loving this and I don’t usually like horror thrillers but if Gun is in it I’m all in. Gun never disappoints. And I have become a fan of Foei ever since Manner of Death. The storyline is crazy which is as it should be for a thriller. This is going to be some rollercoaster ride.
How this has a 8.0 rating is beyond me. I won’t say anymore. Bad idea to follow Moonlight Chicken with this. This just feels so amateurish. I want to be fair but it feels like the formula bl troupe…sex, betrayal, miscommunication, toxic relationship, and of course an accident.
Top 5 MDL ratings for 2023 so far: 1. 8.6 My School President 2. 8.5 Moonlight Chicken 3. 8.4 The Warp Effect 4. 8.0 Never Let Me Go 5. 7.9 Between Us Not surprisingly the top two both had Gemini and Fourth in the cast! The only one I didn’t love was The Warp Effect…I started it but dropped it at the 3rd episode. I liked the mls but it just didn’t jell with me at the time. I’m going to give it another try after I finish rewatching Moonlight Chicken.
This show truly deserves its ranking in Imdb, such an spectacular show.Simple stories that could happen to regular…
I’m already binge watching the entire series. Lol..there are at least five new BLs out there. Usually I’m in a rush to watch but I’m in no hurry. Moonlight Chicken has spoiled me! lol
This drama was an utter joy after the series of shit show disappointments we've had to endure lately in the land…
This is why it is so important for to not give up or give in. Hopefully when the investors see that the bl base is growing and its audience is expanding due to the an interest in quality scriptwriting and substance we will get more BLs like Moonlight. It’s still a business and when they see there is money to be made perhaps we will get more quality projects. They will also attract quality actors who want to be more than eye candy and a slab of meat on a shipping block.
The same here. Cannot yet put myself together to say something articulate. I still want to keep that warm feeling,…
I know. There are just so many positive messages that keep popping up in my mind….Jim giving up the chicken rice diner was him finally letting Beam go…Alan moving out of the condo, changing his phone number and even leaving the pictures behind signaling his leaving the past behind…Li Ming and Heart both leaving the nest , Saleng getting a new job and settling down, Kaipa moving forward by keeping his mom’s legacy alive and finally Wen choosing home and love over money. I was going to stop here but I can’t leave without saying something about the mothers in this series. Kaipa’s mother was the ideal mom. But a lot of us are not ideal. Many of us come closer to being like LiMing and Heart’s mom. We are not bad people. We have flaws and we make poor choices but deep down we do love our children . Got to stop here before the tears come. Take care.
I am really at a lost for words. My heart is just bursting with joy. This was not just a bl. It was so much more. There are so many life lessons in this one series and they accomplished it in eight episodes…acceptance, love, forgiveness, family, tolerance, true friendship, kindness, redemption, hope . What a perfectly beautiful ending. This and the lakorn To Sir With Love I highly recommend if you are looking for a series that will lift your spirits and renew your faith in humanity.
The star in this episode was Khaotung….he captured the real heartache of losing a dear mother. I too lost my mother suddenly. She also concealed the true nature of her illness. Like Gaipa I too was an only child. This was a beautifully sad but realistic depiction of life. Seeing how they all rallied around Gaipa was heartwarming. Bringing everyone together in such a supportive and caring way was heartwarming. I miss this cast already. Can’t believe that it comes to an end tomorrow.
Lots of you hated it, and that's cool, I do not shame anyone for disliking a series -- I've been very vocal about…
Lol..I thought the same thing..who thought Joy to the World was the least bit romantic…that really was my biggest objection…and the disappearance of the father…lol..still I enjoyed it!
All is well in my bl world. I got what I came for and I don’t care what anyone says. Seeing my four guys coming together and beat the bad guys was enough for me. Watching Ben and Chopper hug was the icing on the cake. Can’t wait to see Chimon and Perth in their series. I came to be entertained and I was. For me it goes on my rewatch list. This will hold me over until tomorrow when Moonlight Chicken begins the end to another great run!
So now Jeff also left BOC. It’s a bittersweet feeling for me. I’m sad because we will most likely never see…
Thank you. Love the cast and wish them the best but as a company BOC has lost my respect. It didn’t protect its artist and applauding the person who has been charged in court and has caused malicious harm to a key member of the cast is a disgrace in my opinion. I’m glad Jeff left .
Another voice of reason and a much needed reality check.Thank you.
Yes those teen years can be rough on both the parent/guardian and the teenager.’I tell parents with teenagers to get ready for a roller coaster ride. Lol

You bring up some valid points. I would have the same concerns if I were raising children today. I did have a young cousin who was abducted and taken to another state for sex trafficking. Fortunately she was able to escape but she was forever traumatized. I grew up in a large city and never was afraid. It’s no longer the same. I just accept the Work Get Paid inclusion in the series as just a fictional addition to add some drama between Li Ming and Jim. However it is a known fact that when poor uneducated foreigners come to the USA on work visas they usually get the worst jobs and are many times mistreated.
