I love the chemistry between MaiWan. I think you're right about Wan feeling extra hurt over Mai's leaving.What…
I would have liked more from that scene but I was happy that it was about Wan opening up to Mai and sharing his suspicions about Ongsah (even though he's wrong.) I'm always hoping that Wan will show more affection towards Mai, so it was good to have a scene where they talked like close friends who trust each other. Wan got irritated but I think Mai is used to that by now lol.
Could you pls spoil me on the bl plot line as much as you can pls
For me it’s one the best-written, best-cast Thai series. Gorgeous cast who can truly act, and lots of money invested in handsome production values. You just need to be willing to leave your moral judgments at the door and wallow in the naughtiness. I think they just want us to have fun loving and hating certain characters, commenting up a storm on here and on YouTube. I’d love for this franchise to keep going for season after season.
In regard to relationships this episode focuses mostly on Ongsah and North. Here's a synopsis to assist with any gaps left by the subtitles.
Ongsah and North finally get to talk about how Ongsah knows who North is. Ongsah proves that he's learned a lot about North, including the full details of North's near-drowning and coma. Initially, though, Ongsah is standoffish toward him, still hurt over how North didn't recognize him after he'd recovered from his coma. North is a customer at the cafe where Ongsah works. As Ongsah serves him he's super-polite despite North's attempts to speak as friends. North gets annoyed and confronts Ongsah over it. It turns out North is there to meet Wan, but he phones Wan to say he's stuck at home after a house guest showed up. Then he starts working alongside Ongsah as another employee at the cafe. (I'm not sure how that was an option ... )
Ongsah seems to finally convince North of his story when he shows that he has North's secret notebook -- something that nobody else could know about, not even North's mother or P'Ken.
Meanwhile, Wan knows that North lied to him about the house guest and is suspicious of Ongsah. He confronts Ongsah about it. He tells Ongsah -- who's always been a loner -- that he thinks Ongsah is trying to get close to North in order to win favor with North's mother.
Later on when Wan is alone in the bedroom with Mai he shares these suspicions with Mai. Mai brushes them off, which offends Wan to the point that Wan tries to leave. Mai stops him and does what Mai does best, which is to push Wan back on the bed and get busy. (The subtitles don't catch what Mai says to him right before the end of the scene -- a sentence that includes the Thai word for "like" -- so I'm hoping that he was assuring Wan that he has feelings for him and isn't after him just for the sex.)
Next week it looks like the Ongsah-North relationship advances even further.

Right! I like it. :)
You might be onto something when you say that Wan confessed because I noticed that just before Mai kisses Wan for the first time, Wan starts to say something but then puckers his lips, more or less inviting the kiss.
Plus before Mai moved away they'd promised each other that they'd attend the same university, and Mai did everything he could to get there, which made it sting even more when Wan rejected him. He had to go for it or all those plans would have been for nothing.

I'm glad you heard that comment the same way I did. If you have created a back story for them then write up a fan fiction and let us read it!!! haha
Mai looks over 18 and if that's the case you have a full license to think of his body as much as you want. He's not showing it off for any other reason, and I think he'd be disappointed to know you were trying to look away. :)
Just started it. I hope I'm not speaking too soon but the FL strikes me as one of the most enjoyable that I've seen in a series. The rest of the cast seems really fun too.
I read somewhere that the promise itt made to pai was that once he get to engineering college he will give his…
Thanks for the info! This would explain what Itt was holding in his hand after he asked Pai that question.
I did notice that the trailer shows them arguing about that damn activity room again lol. I guess Itt didn't know that the teacher persuaded Pai to tutor him by promising that Pai's group would get the room if he managed to get Itt into college.
Which might mean that Itt will conclude that any affection shown by Pai was part of an act ... but then why would he care about keeping that promise.
I look forward to seeing how this gets sorted out! :)
So after watching Jai, Mill and Guy do a livestream and finding out they are friends irl I have become seriously…
I love the chemistry between MaiWan. I think you're right about Wan feeling extra hurt over Mai's leaving.
What do you make of Mai's comment after that first conversation? After Wan walks away Mai says something like 'Forget it? Fine. Then I won't be your friend.' I want to think he means 'I'll be MORE than a friend, just wait and see,' and that he'd been attracted to Wan for a long time, because the next time we see them together they're drunk and in bed.
Real talk, I can't get enough of Mai's sexy body. I appreciate all the scenes where he gets to show it off. Wan's a lucky guy. ;)
Your point of view is interesting because for me it seemed obvious that the script started out as a BL then for some reason was toned down. Very little was left for the viewer to fill in -- they could hardly have spelled it out more clearly if it was in neon letters flashing in the background of every scene. :)
I do believe that Puen was in love with Singha and eventually fell in love with Than. With Singha in particular his emotions were so over the top, both at the restaurant buffet and of course after Singha's injury. Puen practically had a breakdown over that. And once he accepted Than, he went all in. Than had access to Puen that Puen would give to nobody else. I think I remember a scene where Jern was dying to be let into Puen's apartment and he wouldn't oblige, but Than got the red carpet treatment lol.
Jern finally figured things out in the final episode when she stumbled upon Puen and Than after the big game. She saw how they looked at each other and how intimate they were, and she went around the corner to start crying because she finally realized that Puen would never be hers.
Add in Puen's comment about not caring about the gender of the person he'd fall in love with, and I think one would have to be willfully disregarding tons of evidence to say that love between boys wasn't a subtext of the entire series. Peun's comment wasn't a throw-away -- it was there for a reason, just as Jern's moment of crying was there for a reason.
That being said, I knew going in that this wasn't a "true" BL, whereas you had the unfortunate experience of having those expectations only to have them dashed. I wonder how much that might have influenced each of our impressions of the series.
I just realized we're 1/3 of the way through the series and we're still in the flashback to high school.
I need to know what the 'promise' is that Pai made to Itt and why they're no longer friends at the start of uni. (And why it seems every student from their high school ended up at that uni lol.)
If you've watched 'Capture Lover' then you'll get a sense of the production values and writing of this movie. There's some crossover in the casting too, so maybe the same studio did both. The story has some implausible moments (to say the least) and a few plot holes. And the ending? It's 'happy' but there's no explanation of how a certain character manages to show up all of a sudden, so it feels a bit like the last scene was tacked on so we'd all be smiling as the final credits start to roll.

Right before that Wan said something like "Why is this the only thing you ever think about?", so maybe "Because I like it" was his reply.
