I was mad at the dad and how things played out between him and his son, but there was a lesson to be learned from their relationship. Saint is not giving up on his father. He has respect, patience, and affection for his dad. He shows that he still wants to be part of the family, but right now, he's hurt. Hurt that his father still treats him like a prized possession rather than a son.
At the end of the day, he is still Saint's dad. It's up to him if he accepts his son and looks for forgiveness because although Saint loves and recognizes him as a father, Saint is an adult capable of seeking and wanting a life for himself.
Saint's happiness isn't negotiable.
One more episode to go. Let's see if the dad would come to his senses before it's too late. There's nothing for Saint to forgive, but on the dad's path, he needs to reel it in if he doesn't want to lose his son... And the prettiest son in law he's going to ever have! 😂
I love Saint's eyes when he sees Ice coming into his room like the baddie that he is. Ja's eyes in this scene were expressive, showing signs of relief, love, and awe all at once when his eyes land on Ice. You can feel the profound relief that his partner chose to be there for him in that moment.
It was beautifully portrayed!
Ja didn't need dialogue because everything he wanted to convey was spoken through his eyes. Not many actors can do this. I love how the camera lingered just a little as if to tell the audience, "Watch the emotional release through the eyes of Saint as he finally has his person with him."
I've heard about Ja before, but this is my first time watching him and I do like what he brings to the table. His looks reminds me of a young, boyish Tom Cruise. Just not going to watch his old shows, though. I'm fine with JaTae.
I love Tae's voice! I can listen to it all day whether he's talking, singing or laughing. It's melodic. His voice just invites you in. It's warm, it's slightly airy, and it has this floating quality thing that just feels safe to sit with.
I forgot to post this note. I apologize for the spamming.
I think the killer chose the game Truth or Dare because it was linked to the incident that happened with the Avengers group. The victim was perhaps fueled by peer pressure - as it's often portrayed in many TV shows across the world and even crime thriller books - to complete a reckless dare in order to join the group.
While attempting this dare, the victim probably met with an accident, and to cover it up, everyone was sworn by secrecy. It's no wonder Champ and others could overlook a rapist like Tar, the secret of what they did was more important than Tar being a disgusting human being.
So the killer blows the dust off the game and brings it back. They'd die by the same mechanics as each person is being targeted based on their specific "crime" in the cover-up. Someone issued the dare, some probably cleaned the scene, and some perhaps provided false alibis.
About Champ 😎
I think he might be one of the final survivors. He seems to be the one in charge of doing the cover up. Based on his background, he has influence to keep everyone around him quiet. He looks like he doesn't care about his so-call friends; he just keeps them close so he can control their silence better.
If he stays alive, I think he would lose everything and suffer from a mental breakdown. I think I've been reading too much Thrillers. I'll go now and finish that James Patterson I've been meaning to.
I live for mysteries that are structured like a "whodunnit"! While it's still too early to call out the killer, for now, I've listed a few candidates.
As we've seen so far, the murders are centered around a twisted game of "Truth or Dare". So far, we've seen two of the Avengers dead. We know Tar's sin, but we still don't know Fai's. The killer is eliminating the group one by one.
Grudge: Based on what we have seen so far, the motive stems from a past incident involving the group that was covered up. The killer feels betrayed, so every man Jack is going to get his/her comeuppance.
Truth or Dare: a party favorite for many, this game is being used as justice to force the group to own up to their covered up crimes. The killer wants them to suffer through the choice of revealing the Truth or taking the Dare, which eventually leads to their death.
The victims: So far, we have Fai who was injected to death and Tar, a serial rapist.
The suspects 🕵️
I'm sure the black envelopes are sent by the killer.
Dr. Phut - I know in many shows, the doctor is the key to help the police to unlock the forensic truths, but this doctor feels off balance. Did something happen to a relative of his (perhaps a younger brother or sister) and the group covered it up?
I can't rule him out.
Jay - his brother, Jade is a police officer. Was stopped from calling the cops by Tar and Bell. I've labeled him the betrayer because he lives with a cop and knows how the police thinks. If he has a reason to kill, it might be that he's fed up of holding onto a secret that's driving him insane. He's either an accomplice or a victim.
Those are my two for now. I'm thinking that Champ will be too easy, but he can easily be the killer. Oh, perhaps Time or Bell, though I think I might be watching them get killed soon.
But you know what the SICKEST plot twist would be: if Champ and Dr. Phut are in cohorts and killing off the group one by one.
Theories are subject to change according to how future episide goes.
This is perhaps the best I've seen Boun thus far since I started to pay attention to him. His wardrobe? Sexy! His aura? Sexy! His hair! Sexy! His profession? Sexy! 🧑🍳😘
Boun is out here looking as if he stepped right out of a noir thriller and I am LIVING!
I have to be honest though, had Boun not been casted in this series, I wasn't bothering to watch. I need to stop following Boun around like a loyal puppy. The pacing (slow, atmospheric) allows for us, the viewers, to focus on Pleng's confusion/story. I've used the time to conjure up theories and it was fun! 😊
I have a feeling that she's faking the state that she's in. She killed Thunphob, but for what? Why? Was it an accident? Does Mile know and is willing to go to any lengths to protect Pleng from that truth that his mother is a monster?
Killer #2: Botpleng.
Is he is the one who actually killed Thunphob? Maybe they had a fight? Maybe it was self-defense? Maybe it was an accident? Perhaps Mile witnessed the killing and has been suppressing Pleng's memories to keep him from knowing he's the actual killer. But the timeline doesn't fit. 🤔
* Back to Mile: he just dropped the BIGGEST confession in his life: he has loved Pleng for what, ten years? So he's been lying to the person that he claims to love for so long? When he confesses like that, the secret is finally out, but it doesn't free him from whatever prison he put himself in.
He manipulated Pleng for so long by hiding evidence or drugging Pleng to suppress memories, that it'd be wrong to root for him. I guess if this theory holds true, Mile was doing it out of his own version of loyalty, albeit twisted.
Or ... And this is a big OR... Did Mile make a promise to Thunphop regarding Pleng promising to shield him from whatever secret of Pleng's family was uncovered by Thunphop? Eh, that's an ugly reach ... But I reached! 🤪
* Mile... Again! I guess all roads lead back to this man. What if Mile and Jen are the ones behind Pleng's suppression? Jen is a doctor. Could she have treated Pleng years ago and discover something wrong with his brain? She chooses to protect her family while Mile chooses to protect Pleng? 🤔
Okay! Here I go putting on my psychological noir thriller hat on. Mind you, I'm at the hospital writing all of this! 😂 In this exercise, I let my mind wander and write whatever comes to it in note taking form:
* First, I started with the meaning of the names. I'm not sure if they're 100% accurate, but it's what I yielded from my search:
Botphleng - "song" or "musical composition".
Tankhun - "worthy of you" or "deserving of you". It's a rough translation, but it fits with the character's portrayal.
Thunphob - Thun meaning wealty, resources, or foundation. Phob meaning world, realm or existence. So he has something like a solid foundation I guess. Something established, something real.
Somewhere else said that his character could represent a grounded past, or the life that exists outside the dream/memory loop.
Muenmile literally translates to “ten thousand miles.” It's so poetic! 😍 But the name carries weight. How far is Mile willing to go emotionally speaking? 🤔
* Next, I looked at the title: what is the melody of secrets? Melody is music. Like, is it a music box or song that contains a recording that could lead to the real killer? I've thought about it for too long and though I may be way off, it kind of fit for now.
* Based on the lighting, I deduce Pleng to be in a coma or dream-like state. I now think that Pleng is physically awake, but he is being psychologically managed. But by whom? Mile? His grandma? His mother? Dr. Jen?
* Pleng could have DID or a trauma-induced personality split (as indicated by Tankhun last episode). This personality was perhaps created to help him cope.
* My baby Mile! 😔 I know he's not innocent, but I cannot pin down how and what way. 🤔 Is Mile drugging Pleng to suppress his original memories? Is he working with Pleng's grandmother to keep Pleng at bay? Did he and granny commit a crime that they want Pleng to forget about because he was a witness?
* Did Pleng's family kill Thunphob?
* Dr. Jen is also someone to be suspicious about. Did she by any chance falsify medical records? But my main concern is, does she get with my boy, Mile, because their chemistry is 🔥.

1) Koh knocks on Jira's door. And I know that he was uninvited, but he looked so good in Jira's room/space. Like he just fits.
Pheem didn't knock. He barges right in and is angry to see Jira drawing his boss.
2) Koh is flower illiterate! 🤣 But I love how thoughtful he was in gifting Jira a rose to apologize for Pee Gate.
Pheem puts flowers in Jira's hair. I just realized that if Jira is an Angel for Koh, the he's a fairy for Pheem.
3) Jira can easily draw Koh.
Jira struggles to even draw Pheem's face.
It's nothing, but those were just the differences I noticed in the fifth episode.
Saint loves his father, but he also loves Ice.
I was mad at the dad and how things played out between him and his son, but there was a lesson to be learned from their relationship. Saint is not giving up on his father. He has respect, patience, and affection for his dad. He shows that he still wants to be part of the family, but right now, he's hurt.

"Lookpeach."
"Peach."
"Lookpeach. Lookpeach. Lookp..."
😂🤣
That scene was almost an hour long for me. No wonder I couldn't finish the episode on time!
