it's okay, if you don't find it interesting, don't force yourself😊I ususlly watch at least 3eps to see if I'll…
It's a pretty simple story. For the main couple, at least, a happy ending is guaranteed. And given the overall vibe of the series I think we'll get a happy ending for the rest of the characters too.
If your "ewww" factor is due to one of the leads seeming less mature than the other, that's understandable, but one thing I've liked about Kong's performance is that despite Rak's inexperience he shows a lot of common sense and never lets expectations guide his behavior.
Rak thinks he knows where he *should* stand in Fah's eyes and refuses to believe anything more without hearing it from Fah himself. He sticks to their arrangement without wavering. To me that's a sensible and mature outlook that a lot of adults severely lack.
Rak deserves credit for the results of his love lessons for Fah. We need only consider the stony Fah we saw in Ep01 compared to the transcendent one in Ep09.
And kudos to the series for making the transformation gradual and believable.
Kla has truly done a terrific job as director. I looked over his past projects and nothing there prepared me for the sheer excellence I see here.
Thomas is so gorgeous. He appears shy and reserved but is so passionate and wild in the love scenes. Kind of reminds…
He's reserved and cautious by nature but loses all inhibition around Kong. Sometimes when they're together you can sense Kong toning down his own exuberance so as not to encourage Thomas too much. Just watch their reaction video to Episode 3.
auausave is my new obsession......... hia is cute without any effort.he is a natural sos!!!!!!!!
If you watch them in the second season of DMD Friendship you will love them even more. I swear, Save is an absolute angel. I love the way Auau drops all pretense with him. He fully understands how lucky he is to be the apple of Save's eye.
When this series is over I might have to end my own life too >.< But seriously, this bl it's what is providing…
Based on personal experience I can assure you that it is infinitely rewatchable. I don’t want to shame myself by saying how many times I’ve already fired up the series when I need some serotonin, as you say. 😉
Well i didn't think of all people they would be Teerak antis
I'm pretty sure it's a dream or Rak's imagination, since the opening credits show Fah's parents sitting next to each other, no longer in formal clothing, beaming.
My bet is that this is the real scene of them meeting Rak.
In true Thai BL tradition, the night falls fast and early in the BL universe.
Fah's flight arrives at noon, at which time he meets up with Rak, who dashes off after a brief conversation, and after Fah finds out from Babe where Rak has run off to it seems to take him several hours to finally get to the bridge.
The same early nightfall happens in Moonlight Chicken when Li Ming takes that chicken delivery to the Sargeant Major's house and meets Heart for the first time -- it's mid-afternoon when he leaves the restaurant and dead of night when he gets to the house.
Okay .. just curious .. why does every characters of Thai BL 's are Rich Kid .. like I hope they can make a character…
Thai BLs almost always feature lighter-skinned actors since light skin is highly valued in Thai culture. When you see darker-skinned actors they usually play henchmen or comedic extras.
Domundi also uses skin-smoothing effects when processing their footage. For me it's done to a tolerable extent in this series, but in Cutie Pie it was one of the things that made that series unwatchable for me. It was like the film editor had discovered a new toy and couldn't get enough of it.
I thought Punlee would be the token single of the group, him having a love interest was quite unexpected! That…
By the end of the series I think Type will be the only single guy. Although who knows, maybe they'll tease a little love interest for him at the very end too.
The music in this is amazing!! As expected of domundi but still
I am constantly wowed by the music. As just one example, that opening theme song gets brilliantly redressed to suit so many scenes. The absolute killer for me was when they added the soaring vocalization while Fah tells his parents about Rak. Goosebumps galore!
To offer up some trivia, in the book the infatuation that Fah feels for Rak starts even earlier than Rak's Freshman Welcome ceremony, in fact in the book Fah goes to the Welcome ceremony specifically because he knows that Rak is his brother's classmate and will be participating. When there he watches Rak longingly from afar, standing under a tree some distance away. (During the series trailer there's a shot of Fah smiling as he holds a photo of Rak at the Welcome ceremony, which made me think they might include a more extensive flashback, but seeing how things went in today's episode I guess they won't.)
In the book, however, you might say that Fah exhibits some stalker behavior long before the Welcome ceremony. There is a whole chapter that covers this period in Fah's life. Fah tries to learn as much as he can about Rak, which includes following his Facebook account. Rak's ill-fated relationship with Mew takes place during this time, and Fah learns they're together when Rak changes his Facebook status to "Dating Mew". Seeing this, Fah is devastated -- it's like all his dreams are crushed in an instant. I found this chapter to be quite moving. Fah is lonely despite his wealth and gorgeous good looks.
There is no fake relationship in the book, although Fah and Rak do meet in person for the first time after Fah rescues Rak from Oh at the night club and drives him home. (The incident with Oh merely serves to get the story going.) Babe is mortified that Fah had to take responsibility for her drunken brother like that, so she tells Rak that he must apologize to Fah in person. The next morning she and Dom set out to drive Rak to Fah's business, but on the way something comes up so they end up dropping Rak off there with a promise to pick him up later. A sobered-up Rak finally meets Fah in person and is deathly intimidated, but in a short time Fah starts fawning over Rak and asking him to stay as long as he can.
This scene happens before the book reveals that Fah has been crushing on Rak for a long time, so all this fawning strikes both Rak and the reader as puzzling.
From there, Fah becomes a constant presence in Rak's life.
Other trivia: Fah's name refers to the sky and Rak's refers to the sea, so in the series pilot when Fah says he wishes that the sea and sky could meet and make the horizon disappear, he's hinting at his wish to be with Rak for real.

Kudos to JJ and Tor for taking on this project but I won't hate them if they stay away from BL in the future.
And kudos to the series for making the transformation gradual and believable.

Domundi hit the jackpot with these two.
My bet is that this is the real scene of them meeting Rak.
I get a kick out of their high-fives. 🙂
