Yes as someone stated you don’t even have to be there to experience
survivors guilt. My little cousin was seven
years old and in school
when his three younger brothers did not survive a fire at their house. He felt if he had been home he could have saved his brothers. I think most of us could relate.

I agree. I don’t think I ever really said the word boyfriend out loud until we had been dating for over a year. He
was the
same. I
remember his friends teasing him but he would just smile. I think we both felt if it didn’t work out the pain would be less. So I
Understand
perfectly and I really am enjoying
this so
much

What a beautiful heartfelt
episode. When my son was in the third grade a classmate drowned. He was only eight years old. His father was watching him swim and walked away to make a call. A few minutes later he heard a commotion. When he turned around the lifeguards were pulling his son out of the pool. They
administered cpr but were
unable to revive him. We attended the funeral along with my son and his other
classmates. The father was
inconsolable. It was too
much. The family moved
away. This episode captured the pain and guilt
felt by the survivors. My husband who served in the military said soldiers who have survived being in a war often have a hard time, especially if their comrade did not survive but they did. I also loved how the other two couples are being depicted. Love me some BounPrem.

Thank you. I loved it too!

I’m good….I got my happy
ending…obviously this was not your typical bl. I’ve looked at over 30 BLs in 2022 up until now and this is one of two that included
Individuals with a physical
disability. Not Me had the mother who was deaf. So glad it ended with Chompo
and Nan in a healthy, loving relationship. Name
not only is talking but is a writer too and he and Em
also are in a happy relationship. It was so fitting that Name would be the one to sense what was really wrong with Champ. Gun and Golf are still
together and have matured. I even liked the
wedding scene. Life is not
perfect. Things happen but with the love and support of family and friends you can make it. And we find out at the end that Champ is gay. No surprise there. Afterall most of the group is gay and this is a bl. This will go on my rewatch list. It was slow in some parts and I could have done without the wigs but this was not the worst bl I’ve seen. That honor still goes to Checkout!

I started watching and was enjoying until I saw the look on Fern’s face at the concert. I knew what was coming and had to drop it. I have a low tolerance for
vindictive wanna
be girlfriends and
homophobic
mother’s. Now I have to rewatch
Love Mechanics
to get this nasty
taste out of my
mouth.

Thank you. I love different and I am enjoying this. I am really enjoying it and I love Ohm and Fluke together. Can’t wait for the next episode.

What can I say but I love love love all three couples. This was such a feel good episode even with the touch of drama. Can’t wait for ep2 .

I agree. You visit the person who you believe killed your brother and moments later you and the sister kiss. You then decide you want to take her to school. And of course Tu has that same sad expression. Too much too soon for me. I would have preferred the animosity to continue until the truth came out about who actually killed Mai. Then there would be a realistic and believable reason to start the two moving toward acceptance, forgiveness, reconciliation , friendship and then love…again, this just seems like another
vehicle to highlight and promote Tu.

I really want to love this but there is just so much pain and angst. Intertwine
this with the underlying story of drug dealing it is obvious that there is more pain and imminent death coming. Realistically I don’t see a happy ending although it’s obvious they are suddenly turning this into a love story. That’s where they lose me. In reality the pain does not go away so quickly. Will the sister get out of jail and they all sit around the fire and happily reminisce.
It’s clear that they want Tu to be the center focus in this love triangle but it’s not working for me. I will hang in there until the end
which at this point seems very predictable.

I just can’t get enough of Off and Ohm….watching them act is such a great experience. I even envision watching them years and years from now. This is what they were meant to do. Tu is okay but it seems like she only has one facial expression. Her sad and mad are the same. That’s just my opinion. Episode seven was full of angst and emotion. I loved it.

KinnPorsche is my #1 for 2022 with To Sir as a close #2.
The ost for To Sir is definitely #1 in my book.

Watch it! You won’t be disappointed!

I am binge watching this series for the second time and the character I am loving even more is Yang. Never once has his love for his brother wavered. He is always there for Tian. In terms of depicting brotherly relations when one is gay this series and
KinnPorsche certainly raised the bar. No toxic sibling rivalry and homophobic rants…just pure love and acceptance
between brothers.

Lol…you are so right about true bl addicts. We go crazy if we don’t get a happy ending. Lol…I still remember the bl Irresistible Love. There was such an uproar over the sad ending a second ending was made which gave us the ending most of us wanted. I’m still upset over History- MODC and Addicted.

Well we had our kumbaya moment…everyone sitting around the table as happy as they can be. This is really where I feel it should have ended. We have two
couples who have gone public, we have a bromance which may last an eternity, we have two single guys who both need a life and may be the perfect match for each other. For me, this is a wrap. Can’t wait to read your comments next week.
Happy New Year!

In my opinion there is a good balance of moments where you will be angry, sad and even glad. I put my own tears at a 3-4 all for Tian and Jiu.

I agree. I was drawn by the inclusion of those with physical disabilities also. Two great storylines which could have been developed better. Well, it’s a start.

I am able to generally find at least one positive thing to say about a series. If it’s really abysmally bad I just drop it. But I have hung around for ten episodes thinking the next episode would get this series back on the right track. I started watching because of the cast. I think they are each genuinely talented but I regretfully have to agree with your analysis. Ever have a job that you will never put on your resume or bring up in a job interview. Well, for these actors this is it. This is the one you just chalk up as a life experience and vow never to be sucked in again. You learn to do your do diligence. You read the script. You ask questions and if you don’t get the right answer you learn to say no. If you have to pay your bills accept it for what it is…hold your nose, take the money and vow to do better so you don’t get put in this situation again. I refuse to watch the last two episodes before I read the spoilers. Then I will make my decision. Take care, stay well and Happy New Year!

Thank you…I agree. Emotional manipulation is the worse. Cultural manipulation is equally bad. I know a young man who was like Dew. He knew he was gay. His mom knew he was gay. His wife knew he was gay when she married him. He wanted so much to conform to everyone’s wishes that he went along to get along. Less than a year of marriage everyone realized you cannot pray away
gay. Fortunately his wife apologized, they divorced and are still friends. His mo ther finally accepted there would be no grandchildren in the conventional way. And everyone else just had to deal with it. It’s hard to go up against your parents and your culture. So I personally have no ill feelings toward Dew.
