They decide to stay together but live apart while JTF goes to work at the coffee plantation and QXC remains in Beijing.

No triangles or squares - each FL has her own ML. The three relationships are very different. My favorite is the Noona one.

Mon reminds me of Pai in "My Gear and Your Gown", but I expect the role will eventually come to life in a way that Pai never did.

I like the premise very much. The twist at the end of Episode One was awesome, although one of the guys was capturing it with his phone and that could lead to trouble.

I know I've seen the actor for Pond somewhere else, but his bio on here shows nothing else. Grrr.

Mon's reaction to Soh was gay panic all around, and I think I sympathize with him because that was also me when I was a freshman in college. I'd been hiding behind religion throughout my adolescence and once on campus I freaked out the first time a guy hit on me. By sophomore year I had a boyfriend lol.

So, I'll likely be more forgiving of the slow pace and be more invested in the story than most. I appreciate the polish in the production and the acting is good. I'll be looking forward to each new episode.

For real!

My favorite part is actually the second-couple-in-the-making, Xiang Lin and Yu Zhi. I think Yu Zhi's backstory would be interesting -- something along the lines of a rich kid who is small for his age and was probably picked on when he was very young.

His thirst for Xiang Lin's attention is so obvious and sweet. I look forward to when he finally gets a little bit of affection because I bet it will transform him.

The series itself isn't a priority for me -- I tend to forget that it's airing until I visit Viki to watch something else -- but I will keep watching in support of it.

Not a bad idea. I also feel a little overwhelmed with all the series that are running or starting soon. But I guess that's better than the opposite.

For some reason I thought this was a six-episode series but come to realize it's TWELVE.

They've got to be kidding. How in god's name will we be able to endure the glacial pace and inscrutable storyline?

Great insight. Thank you!

Plus "Hia" is pretty close to the Thai word used to call someone an a$$hole or worse.

Such an interesting story!

With "Enchante" and now this series it seems that Thai producers have discovered face-smoothing technology. So, I've got news for Lian - his face looks like a doll's too.

Other than that it looks like this will be fun.

My thoughts exactly. Let the guy show some range.

And what I thought later was that after Valen alerted King it would have taken King several minutes to leave the dorm and get over to the academic building. Sean and Pete should have had enough time to finish their "bizness", iron their clothes and take a shower. :)

This is #2 on MDL's list of top airing Kdramas!

I can't remember ever seeing a BL on any of those lists. (But I admit I also don't study them closely.)

I'm utterly confused.

How do I get a job with coworkers as cute as Milk's?

They need to reward my patience with at least one scene of Milk shirtless.

For me, this and "You're My Sky" are the two powerhouse BL series running right now -- completely different from one another but just oozing with greatness.

I wonder if ITSAY was a turning point for the Thai production companies. Like maybe they saw what kind of masterpiece is possible in the BL genre and decided to put some hard work and real money into producing something meaningful.

I include "Bad Buddy" on that list. I'm sure other people would have their own examples.

I can understand how you feel. Over at "Rainbow Prince" I'm in the minority for enjoying it, but I like that I still get to say what I think and some people agree with me, so I don't feel alone.

It's true that it's more fun if almost everyone is on the same groove, like with "Bad Buddy" and "Not Me", but that's super rare, and unless people who like "Gen Y 2" are being personally attacked for saying it I hope they'll shrug off the opposing opinions and continue to express themselves.

I have to say that I also think it's disingenuous to try to invalidate the opinions of people who dislike this series, dismissing them as haters who dump on everything. I bet most of the people who post here negatively about Season 2 actually enjoyed Season 1 and were ready to embrace Season 2.

Speaking only for myself, I think this season is such a botched job that I wonder if Star Hunter was just cashing in on the popularity of Season 1. It makes me a little angry, and if I may speculate a bit, I think a lot of the piling-on that you see here is from other fans of Season 1 who feel similarly let down.

A poorly done Season 2 of any series can have a retroactive effect on its first season, suddenly making the Happy Ever After look like a Happy Just For Now. Take, for instance, Mark and Kit. The storyline they've been given this season just doesn't ring true to me -- it rings like something thrown together in a story conference, and it's a bit insulting.

Anyway -- if someone posts stupid rants that get on your nerves, just block them. And if they get personal with an attack, report the comment and get it deleted -- then block them. Reporting abuse on here does get a response, and fast! It's something I'm grateful for as a member.

Finally, there is definitely a loss of sorts when you seek to surround yourself only with people who agree with you. I've read some of your episode recaps and I've been fascinated by your perspective. In some ways it feels like we're watching two different shows! But I like knowing that there are people here like you who are articulate, thoughtful, and passionate about something we all definitely love together, which is BL.

Yok bringing Dan to the garage was like when one of your (straight) guy friends gets his first girlfriend in high school and starts bringing her around all the time, because "Guys, she's so cool!"

It was such a teenager move and I'm glad Sean called him out on it. At least when Sean finally agreed to include Dan it was his own choice, not Yok forcing the issue.

Yok was reckless bringing Dan to the hideout without checking with anyone first. He should have sold them on the idea *before* doing it instead of after, when it is too late. When Yok came walking in and I realized what was going down my first thought was, "Dude, don't be thinking with your d*ck." Which he was.

Dan might not be a snitch (*might* not be), but only Yok has spent any time with him. And it's still a little suspicious that he just happened to be on the scene to rescue Yok when Yok was being chased.

And those dudes with the guns showed up soon after Dan had made his first visit to the garage. Now, I'm pretty sure that was because of Todd, but it continues to bother me that the series is making Todd the villain. It's too easy. I'm hoping for a clever twist in that regard.

You're so right! Any bets on whether that kiss between Khaitoon and Non gets interrupted at the last second (probably by Valen)? ^_^

I'll be shocked if Non ends up the winner in the end, but also impressed by the audacity of the writers. He's not a very interesting character though, so it would be a hollow victory.

Khaitoon and King would be a nice pairing. And it would drive Valen nuts lol.

But the final blow was when Pete and Sean emerged from hiding, adjusting their clothes. With that, Pete lost any points he'd earned from resisting Sean in the beginning, and the kissing video was no longer needed as evidence of his infidelity.
