Externals at 3:57 and 12:51 were the same. The one at 24:27 is different. Whether they're the same shots, used repetitively or not, is not relevant. The fact that they ARE being used is the point of contention.

Just to be clear: I may be annoyed by the use of AI when other means could be employed, but I pick my battles; because, this is South Korea we're talking about. Almost every single actor on the screen has had plastic surgery procedures, as this is the norm in the industry (it's the same in many countries, by the way, not just South Korea-- they get a lot of flack, but the U.S., China, and Thailand are just as bad). It seems silly, at this point, to take umbrage with AI generated scenes when we're already appreciating engineered human faces.

The same AI slop images are all over Chinese dramas and I've been seeing them in Thai dramas. I don't watch a lot of U.S., European, African, and Latin American dramas, but I'm sure this is a practice that's being implemented worldwide.

All the external overview city scenes were AI generated, from what I noticed.

In episode 6, alone, there were 3:
@ 3:57 min
@ 12:51 min
@ 24:27 min

I am not watching it on YouTube. 😉

Our opinions may differ on the funding strategy, but we're in full accord on our love for these types of dramas; so, win-win!

I don't blame those production companies for doing what they determine is necessary, but I'm not going to pretend I like seeing blatant advertisements for products I wouldn't touch in a million years. I, personally, abhor the tactic, and it's a significant part of my motivation for moving away from watching Thai media. I return to watch the series that primarily avoid this marketing gimmick. Bonus: the productions that keep that marketing gimmick to a bare minimum, also usually have better production quality, overall. Better acting, directing, writing, cinematography, and score. I'll take limited high quality productions over cheaply produced quantity every single time.

It's great that there are some series available on YouTube for those who want to be able to enjoy the genre. I don't watch series on YouTube because I know they're going to have a product placement moment shoehorned in what seems to be every 10 - 15 minutes. Boooooo!

I am relieved to not see a product placement every other scene, as those moments always cheapen the series for me. It's a very gimmicky and unprofessional marketing tactic. Seeing Thai series move away from that ploy is a good sign of their film industry's rapid maturity.

During that bathroom confrontation with Big Jane, I actually found myself saying out loud, "Run, idiot!!" Honestly, Little Jane has the survival instincts of a mollusk. 😅😅😅

Agreed! I'm female with a very dominant personality-- most males steer clear of me. The minute I would spot Big Jane, I'd turn the other way and never look back. Little Jane has very weak survival instincts. 😊

I wasn't implying that Sky's character would have a sexual/romantic relationship with the Phakin character. Yes, this is a BL series, but would you agree that there are other types of relationships for two characters to have? Mentor (concerned elder professional looking out for a younger one who's struggling), friend, etc . Phakin could even turn out to a creep who still leads Sky out of the mental prison he's trapped in. Whichever is fine, as long as they don't settle on the simplistic (and unrealistic) one that was depicted in the manhwa. At least, that's my preference.

Exactly!

Also, the sound of a voice that's muffled by and obstructed by a furry costume is distinctly different from a voice that's unimpeded. Sun didn't sound like the pink bunny stranger until he was back under a mascot headpiece.

Enough has been shifted around in the story from manhwa to screen, one can't be sure how they're going to resolve Sky's issue. I, for one, would prefer a change from how the manhwa did it.

That's the point-- the same thing is happening to the actors.

Ah. I think the info listed on MDL is what's confusing everyone. This series only has a total of 10 episodes: 9 regular and 1 special.

kisskh somehow has incorrect information, which is being republished all over the internet, that states: "In total, there are 11 episodes of FAKE FACT LIPS, including the main series and the special episode." This information is incorrect.

I just watched episode 10; so, it's definitely been released.

My eyes couldn't believe the monstrosity they were gazing upon. Those shorts were hella terrible!

I eventually continued watching for the cat. 😅

Night Flight is definitely more realistic.

I'm glad that it's canon that Si Eun and Su Ho have a deeper bond than platonic friendship. Not that there's anything missing in a deep platonic bond, but for those two, the eyes show far more than, "That's my bro," vibes.

**MILD SPOILER FOR WEAK HERO



Granted, WEAK HERO's violence is filmed in a more PG manner, but I wouldn't say it's less violent. One character gets his brain smashed in and ends up in a coma. Also, there are subtle nods to there being a queer bond between Si Eun and Su Ho.

So, am I the only one who noticed that the series WEAK HERO is essentially a bromance version of this movie?

Thank you, love!
