Wasn't sure to expect but I liked the first episode.

I'm so confused ... Not sure what to think yet. I want to give it space to show us what it's about, but it's a frantic start.

I get that … but the conversation had to start somewhere. they were celebrating their 1 year anniversary a day or two later. You’d think they would be able to talk about these things in a general way. I get that maybe Min Jun wasn’t in the head space to hear it right then. or maybe that Jin Hwan could have suggested it in a different way. But my whole point is that the bonus ep was already so short. Did they really need another argument?

And the argument was about them moving in together. If it was about how it was suggested or the timing ... then, ok ... but I still find it weird that they took up so much of the limited run-time for something that should have been an expected event by this point in their (assumed) commitment point.

A little confused about this bonus after the (assumed) engagement/wedding shoot at the end of the finale episode and them wearing the commitment/wedding rings. Why did we need to start this out with an argument? It was only 15 min of show (plus some BTS at the end).

I wish the studio and all the actors well .... but this short series needed to be longer to full express what they wanted to portray. Rough transitions, no clear definition of how much time had passed, rushed emotional arc, and no believable remorse from Ice for scamming/stealing from Frame and all the other previous partners.

My guess is that the 21 year old thing is a myth or an outright lie. I saw a theory about Nakan not being the worst villain in the show so I've been side-eyeing Thara the last couple weeks. So far, even in this ep, she's been okay. But we don't know if she has any ugly plans for whatever happens when Tong turns 21.

Also ... does the blood turn 21 exactly at midnight or after his time of birth? In the US, so many shows have this kind of thing happen at midnight ... but in midnight in which timezone? But in the Asian countries, they put such an emphasis on time of birth that I hope they will use that as the "magic hour" for whatever is going to happen.

They would be great in a Thai version of Advance Bravely

Do Tai, Champ, and even Win know about Sorn’s obsession/interest in Jun? it definitely looked liked all 3 have had questioning or suspicious looks at Sorn and or Jun at one point or another. And that lunch scene on the way to Jun’s family home? Tai definitely took a hint from Sorn to get lost so Sorn could be alone with Jun. And when Tai and Win came back to the table, neither one noticed them sitting so close and Jun’s leg in Sorn’s lap? Or when Jun took his leg back and scooted over after Sorn teased him?

My guess is that everyone knows about Sorn’s crush except Jun … cause he’s still clueless even after everything they’ve already done and said. And I think Sorn didn’t hide himself away for 2 years because he wanted to. He was still working the business and hanging out with the others in between overseas trips for work. I think Tai and Champ knew for a while that Sorn liked Jun but thought he wasn't ready so they kinda forced Sorn to back off, hoping Sorn would have gotten over Jun by now.

This had me cracking up

Whatever it is will start in mid/late June. This was supposed to go until June 20th, but I don't know if they will double up or add a week to account for the week they missed right after the earthquake.

Ex Morning is airing on Thursdays, starting on the 22nd

I think at this point in the anime they've known each other for 2/2.5 years and were together for more than a year.

A lot more series are highlighting the toxic celebrity/fandom culture as a way to normalize celebrities having a private and/or romantic life. Hopefully it's helping.

The evolution of Sorn's hair/vibe

- Noh's blond hair in ReminderS (2019), the sequel to Love Sick 2014 (played by Captain) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXfvAbnfvdA

- Win's blond hair in Until We Meet Again (2019) and the sequel Between Us (2022) (played by Boun). Interestingly enough, Boun was also in ReminderS and is close friends with Captain. https://youtube.com/shorts/pWUfYTuhjDM?si=XKsKZDg8EFVVQKwI

- Payu's dark hair in LITA (2022) and at some point in all of his MAME series.

That guy's boyfriend beat Jun for kissing in general ... Sorn is the one that said Jun's kissing looked bad from what he could see. Jun doesn't seem to be that confident even though he tries to look like he is. Plus, he grew up admiring Thai, Champ, and Sorn as "older brother" figures ... so he probably believes Sorn with very little thought.

I liked the t-shirt. The graphic was just a kid looking at the stars through binoculars. Cute idea. The only reason for the shirt is because Sorn hated the fact that Jun was wearing clothes that belonged to someone not him. He wanted Jun to wear his shirt that morning but had to let it go when Jun insisted on wearing his own shirt. But then he got soaked and needed something else, and Sorn was jumpy the entire time Jun was wearing Champ's clothes. He didn't care about the price, just getting Jun into something else. And I'm guessing that his original shirt, the sweater, and the polo shirt were all in the bag he carried home.

Jun is best friends with Thai's younger brother Win, both 21. They grew up with Thai, Champ, and Sorn, all 3 are 26.

Thai, Champ, and Sorn are childhood best friends .... Jun and Thai's younger brother Win are childhood best friends. They all grew up together. Older set are 26 years old, younger set are 21 years old. Jun used to call all 3 older boys Hia.

I've seen some prefer Hia and some prefer P .... so switching to the opposite after using one for a long time can be seen as an upgrade or downgrade depending on what is happening.

Jun seems to be upset that Sorn avoided him for 2 years when he was still in contact with everyone else and even worked at the same company ... Hence the switch to P' from Hia.

Thai, Champ, and Sorn are best friends, Jun and Thai's younger brother Win are best friends. They've all known each other since they were children.

Pretty sure that Win is Thai's younger brother, but basically the same. And there was mention in episode 2 that Thai promised Jun's father that he'd take care of him and his sister, but not in the sense that Jun's father is dead ... more like he's living somewhere else and knows that Thai will look out for them while the parents are away.
