I hope for the best and trust in EM and their experience. I'm particularly excited about Earth, whose role will be very different to his previous ones.

I also think that there isn't so much pressure on EM. In my opinion, the target group is different and not as big as with G4. I think G4 also have far more advertising contracts to fulfil and a target group that has completely different expectations of them. That's certainly another external pressure on the director. I mean, these factors didn't exist at MSP at the time, which is why I think they were able to approach things with more ease and perhaps a willingness to experiment.

So in my opinion, they have a creativity problem. They have great actors and therefore a lot of potential. The smaller studios often have interesting ideas and better storylines and I think sometimes they fail because they don't have the financial means to realise them. But this event that GMM has created, where you can send in your ideas, receive a minimal amount of money for them (and only if you win, but all participants give up their rights) and get nothing more out of it, has left me with the feeling from the beginning that they run out of ideas.

Oh yes Vice Versa and the randomly eaten chips. 😂

"MeenPing's got that 'can't take my eyes off them' energy. "
So I'm not the only one who feels that way. :)
I think they've done well in this series.

Daou is so good at portraying San. I find it so funny to see this young man behaving in such a grandfatherly way.

I was also very emotional.... and then came Atom.... I burst right away, he even disturbs them in such an intimate moment and then gropes him...

The ending is rushed, but round and a satisfying conclusion. At the same time, for me it also has the potential to work exactly as an introduction to a possible 2nd season.

Yes, I also thought it was very rushed. But for me it could be because a second season would be possible if the series is successful enough. You could use this quick summary as an introduction to the first episode. The appearance of Q was also nice, but kind of random and could be developed in another season. If they don't make a 2nd season, they've managed to pull off a rushed but rounded and satisfying conclusion for the viewers.

This! Imagine if instead of Meen and Ping it was with actors who were really 16... It's a shame that instead of a good story, only NC scenes are emphasised. Some good stories don't need that, for others it fits perfectly.

At first I wondered why Grandma was wearing headphones and smiling.... 10 seconds later I knew 😂

Thank you very much. I know about the term aunt and uncle, but that "great-grandfather" was new to me. But it's understandable when you see the generational leap. I'm somewhat reassured that I didn't seem to have missed the description of the relationship. 😅

I think it would be kind of great. Because it would be a special, safe place that gets attention through the series and would somehow also be a great contact point for the community, but also for the supporters and BL fans.

Imagine you come to Thailand and you already know a place where you can meet like-minded people.

Thanks 🙏

Yes, that's what I meant by physical attraction 🤭 It was precisely because San said that that I was so confused. Thank you very much for your answer. I don't have that much idea about how many kinds of names Thai people have for each other and in what connection 😅 I just thought Doc Tao is the descandent of the guy who performed the ritual with San and thought to myself: how does he suddenly come to have (great-great) grandchildren.

I don't know. Thought doc Tao is the descendant. Because I have no idea and have had this question since episode 1, I just had to get it off my chest 😅

I didn't watch that 🙈 but since Golf was the director, I can imagine.
I love it in any case. Does the café exist in real life?

It is quite obvious that Vee is the reincarnation of Vad.

He came from the right place at the right time and had the right birth time. San and he had an attraction for each other from the beginning. San's pain has disappeared. San met his grandmother, who suddenly moved away, before he was born. The stone immediately lights up next to San. San collapses when Vee leaves the house, even though the stone is there. Third, as a reincarnation, loves V and has a close relationship with him and a natural dislike of San.

While the fake Wad doesn't recognise the Doctor 2 times, even though she "remembers" everything. Character-wise, Vee is more similar to the original Wad than the fake one. Why can the fake Wad remember everything while the Doc can't? In my opinion, the evil great-grandson, who knows San's fate in detail and has been looking for Wad in Chiang Mai, has given all the details to the fake Wad. Only nothing was known about the Doc. I am sure San realised that the fake Wad did not respond to the Doc.
In between, I briefly theorised whether the goddess had sent the fake Wad personally to test San's feelings. The theory fell apart in the end.
I find it frightening how easily everyone can be fooled by appearances, even though many things obviously don't fit. And while Vee had to prove his date of birth and the time in writing (if I remember correctly), with her it's enough that she just tells us when she was born. It pisses me off that the family and Tao are so blinded by appearances. I don't think that's the case with San. I mean, he had physical reactions the first time with Vee. I think he's just trying to find out the background.

What I also noticed:
San used to be poor and without status- now respected
Wad formerly rich with status- Vee poor with criminal record
Doc formerly a murderer - now a doctor to help others. All 3 important people are the opposite of 100 years ago.

But what I've been wondering since episode 1 (maybe I didn't realise):
If San has been searching for the reincarnated Wad for 100 years and had no physical attraction to any human in that time and is so rigidly attached to Wad, how is it possible that he has family? Is it not his real grandson but a grandson from a previous sibling? Have I missed something? 😅

When you also consider that Vee came from the right place at the right time, that San has been attracted to him since the beginning and is showing physical reactions for the first time, it can only be Vee. I think the evil great-grandson told her the whole story, so she knows all the details, including the birth date and time. Didn't Vee have to prove it in writing? (Can't really remember). With her, it's enough that she says it. And Doc as a reincarnation has no memories of that time at all, as does Vee, all connections are based only on positive feelings. But she of all people knows everything? Considering that the great-grandson was in Chiang Mai looking for her and said we'd have her soon, I can only conclude that he's behind it. I also think that Vee comes from the direct family line of the original Wad and that's why San met Grandma back then.

I am 100% with you. You see the birth and growth of a very healthy relationship that started by chance and life in an already healthy relationship full of mutual support. I have a feeling that healthy relationships are too boring for some. Yoryak and Cher are the greenest of the green flags. When I read the comments, many people's interest levelled off right when the pure FWB transitioned to a real relationship because the emotional aspect became more important and the NC scenes became much much less. For me, the series is a real treasure and balm for the soul. It finally shows that you don't have to "achieve" anything to deserve love, that everyone in a good relationship can go their own way and that you respect each other's boundaries. Then, as you have already mentioned, showing diversity (Plakao was such a good role) and also taking care of your health. All of this realised by really good actors. For me, it's all really well realised.

I agree with you. Atom's behaviour is not funny and in the end he wants to own Zen. Imagine if they were in a relationship.... That could get abusive really fast.

I understand what you mean. But would that change anything? Would Atom stick to it? I don't think so, because a) he knows they both have feelings for each other and b) Zen told him to go home to his face and he just said I'm staying. The reaction that he "slept" was also just an attempt to escape. I also have the feeling that Zen doesn't yet trust the stability of his relationship. He was rejected then and Ryu disappeared with no response. This is unsettling and creates anxiety, even if the other person is very clear now. But I agree with you, he definitely needs to learn to set boundaries and, above all, to enforce them. I think Atom's dominance is suffocating him, because even when he tries to draw the line (take his arm away, send him home), Atom finds a way to impose himself. And that makes Atom really pathetic to me.
