That's great! They have good chemistry.

For me the bad hair award goes first and foremost to Pok and Tong, but Thanu might take second place. He just isn't as strikingly handsome as he was in S1.

I think they're trying to make them all look more mature. SMH

Does Bas have it in his contract that he's not allowed to smile? How can such a dull, lifeless character as Wayu be the lead in an ensemble cast?

While I don't see the appeal, Bas clearly has a fanbase, but I don't know how anyone can say he is a capable actor.

I'm watching because of my hopes for Sandee and Phai, and I'm looking forward to seeing how Jack and Koh finally wake up to their mutual attraction. The rest is so skippable.

Well, actually, I do like Jil and Yuki too. I realize they're the token m/f couple so they'll get minimal screen time but they have chemistry together, which in this series is saying a lot.

I was hoping he'd become Mark's rival and go after Kit, or even get his own BL storyline, but they squandered the opportunity.

Maybe he'll get a series of his own someday.

I'd have liked this much more if the first thing Wayu did after stepping out in that long blond wig was to fling back the hair and say "Call me Khalisee!"

Honestly, I think it's the writer-director's fault. His own script probably confuses him. Either that or he just doesn't care and changes the story in whichever way he wants.

This episode was so bad that it made me wonder if this was a "rogue" production where they didn't have permission to film on the premises, resulting in shitty sound and one-take amateur acting.

And just when we thought Calix's mom couldn't be any less human she confounds our expectations once again. What a monster.

I agree - this was Clark's episode. And I also agree that it looks like we've been had. Although the promo pics uploaded here show Calix and Luke sitting together like lovers, in the end I think we'll be lucky if we see them shake hands and smile.

Over nine episodes I've put up with a lot of terrible production values not to be rewarded. Alas.

Why would Todd perpetrate the deed on Black and then urge White to impersonate Black?

I think it's so that the gang wouldn't be aware that Black had been attacked in the first place, allowing Todd (who is undoubtedly linked to Tawi) to remain above suspicion for a while.

And, sorry to DanYok fans, I think Dan is sketchy. As someone has already pointed out, it was all too convenient for him to be there to help Yok when Yok was being chased. Maybe Dan will have a moment of truth where he absolutely must choose sides, in which case I hope he'll chose Yok's, but for now I'm not totally convinced about him.

I don't know exactly why Sean kept the button from White's vest, but when the real Black shows up in a vest with all the buttons intact it could be a major clue to the switcheroo.

In the opening credits of Episode 1 there are three credits to "Beijing" cultural organizations. I don't know if those are the production companies or the distributors.

Was this made before the crackdown and then sold outside of China? How are people determining that this was made in Hong Kong?

We live in a selfish world.

“I don’t mind being a bottom.”

The screenplay worked hard to get the dialog to where that line was possible. How can I not love such artful writing? LOL

After that the banana-riding jokes were a mere bonus.

Adrian is a good sport to let his body be the reason to watch parts 3 and 4. He might not be a gifted actor, but that stroll in a Speedo showed how he’s gifted in other ways.

All that, and they still found a way for Mikey to squirt pearls of suntan lotion over Zeyn’s bare chest.

More beach-trip fun next week!

Some of the characters are dubbed but not all, and not the mains.

You can tell who’s been dubbed by the change in acoustics in a scene. For example, during the parental confrontation with the principal, the principal and student were recorded live while the student’s mother was dubbed. Whenever she speaks the ambient sound deadens like it does when something is recorded in a studio.

Similarly, the scene with the bicycle gift wasn’t dubbed.

If it follows the pattern of other Kdramas of this type, once it's finished with its run as a series they'll release it as a self-contained movie.

This gets my support because with the Chinese crackdown on anything m/m a production like this takes a lot of courage.

But omg, all the dialog is dubbed and Cdrama dubbing is such a pet peeve of mine.

So far, for a drama with the word “kissable” in the title the actual kissing looks as sterile as what we get in most other KBLs. We’re not in “To My Star”s Korea anymore.

Finally got around to watching this and boy is it dumb. It’s always a warning sign when the “lore” of the supernatural being has so many random requirements and consequences.

Assuming the vampire is hundreds of years old, why does he still need a high school education? At this point he’d better be ranked first in his class.

And: “By the way, did I mention that I was almost kidnapped when I was younger?”

LOL … not the most creative way to fill in a back story.

The leads are super cute but I don’t feel any spark between them. I’m actually glad the episodes are short so it won’t take me too long to see how it ends.

Meh. I’ll skip this one.

The Taiwanese cast has more charisma. And nobody will be able to replace Greg Hsu.

I’ll give it a go when it’s released, though.
