I've accepted that this is the era of convenience store BLs and I'm ok with that. I liked the first episode much more than any episode of Love at 7-11. My bar is obviously low on this one, but I wasn't expecting much and I wasn't disappointed.
I think I already have second couple syndrome though, because the brother was so outrageous that he and his boyfriend were my favs.
But you do know that you don't actually have to watch it!? There are so many other shows to be invested in right…
Thanks for the tip. I wasn't aware that I suggested that I "have" to watch this. I thought that most people watched shows by choice. Some people adore a series, some hate watch, some watch because they find a series so bad it's good or for any other reason. I know some people on here think that comments sections are only for people who find a series to be flawless and if you don't you should keep your opinion to yourself. Idk if you think that too, but I enjoy reading positive and less than positive comments and sharing positive and less than positive comments.
I'll be watching and sharing my thoughts when I want to. A tip for you is that you don't HAVE to read them.
WOW!!! I'm so glad MaxNat finally got leading roles. Too bad it had to be in this mess. I feel like I was transported back in time to a bad era of BL where ukes are infantalized damsels with zero agency and nothing but rich people problems to think about and a fear of communication and sex. And lthe only "personality" traits of semes are to be extremely rich and look good in a suit. Cutie Pie made this type of "plot" popular and for better or worse I hope Naughty Babe is the end of this ridiculous era.
Khondiao's arrested development was so frustrating especially because everyone seems to have grown except him. Yi had NOTHING to do, but it would be interesting if they reveal that he's secretly a super hero since he was able to withstand an awful car accident with only a scratch on his face, an arm sprain and an IV that wasn't connected to any fluids 😒. Kuea came back to remind everyone that his relationship with Lian was based on nothing more than sex. We know!!! Nong reminded me that he was the best part of CP and CP2, I love him so much! But Zee stole the show for me because he was as bored and confused about why these characters are back as I was. Zee knew his talents were being wasted and he's right!
I have no idea how I'm going to get through 7 more episodes of this withoug falling asleep during each episode, but I'll do my best.
The writer spent more time on hair purfume than they did developing the relationships. It all feels so contrived and convoluted. LJ will end up with CJ only because the show is literally named after them. Irl their relationship wouldn't even last a month.
So much of the audience was here for sexy content. Unless there is an uncut verison that I missed, that is not a part of this series. Sure CJ looks great in a suit and flirts 24/7, but one man can't make this mess entertaining. Especially when everything else is sooooo damn boring. If you skip the useless office scenes or the stuff with the "fiancee", each episode is about 5 minutes. I wish I had skipped all those scenes!!!
Wow I am LOVING this series. The plot is so interesting and the relationships are developing at a great pace. Also, I rarely say/think this, but it's soooooo nice to watch a series with so many good looking MEN. I think we should have a scene in a bath house every week!! ☺️
I binged episodes 2-9 in one day and really enjoyed it. The first episode was not good, but the rest is very sweet. It kinda reminded me of the old Chinese BL I Love You as a Man but with ghosts 🤣
This feels like a series that KimCop would have been cast in before everyone got tired of their ship. I won't bother pointing out the issues with the show, I'm just gonna drop it.
But I am sad that Frank and Lee Long are in another awful series. I'd love to watch them in something good.
This was watchable mostly because 2023 has been filled with a never ending supply of really bad Thai BLs. It's rare that I prefer bromance over BL, but the leads had zero romantic chemistry so each kiss made me wish they were just friends. As many have said, the plot was slow, but I did want to find out what really happened and that kept me slightly interested for 7 episodes on 2x speed.
On a positive note, Ping was solid throughout. I want to see him and Bright in more roles in the future, but with better directors, editors and SCRIPTS!
I want to like this, but the constant focus on Tammy is killing all of the potential nice things about the series.
I can turn off my brain and enjoy an innocent show where nothing really happens. But this is lacking in a lot of ways. The hardest thing for me to accept is the casting. Why cast Offroad of all people as Phumjai?!?!?!?! Someone make it make sense!
Still waiting to find out why 3 good looking guys are obsessed with LJ. And why they keep trying to convince us that LJ is good looking. The more they say it, the less I believe it. Even if he is, where is his personality?
The entire episode was filler except for the last minute. I remember when viewers were freaking out when LJ sat on CJ's lap. 🤣🤣🤣 the writers knew exactly how to draw people in. Too bad this show has gone no where since then!
I thought the first episode was simple and cute. This isn't gonna be the best story ever told, but I everyone did a fine job. I laughed a few times and I'm looking forward to seeing both relationships develop. If you want to watch something light hearted to pass the time, there are much worst shows than this one.
I'm pretty sure that if the cast had well known actors, the rating would be much higher. Please don't judge a new series based on a MDL rating.
I really hope that the screenwriter stops writing or learns how to write a coherent story. Becuase this is ridiculous. The scenes just kinda happen and then end abruptly. The actors are doing fine, but it's clear during the conversations that they don't know what's going on either.
There are way too many characters and no overarching story. LJ is FINALLY starting to realize that these guys might like him. CJ admitted he's engaged, but I can't be bothered to care about any of it. I still don't know why anyone likes anyone else in this series and I have been given no reason to think that any of them are in love.
I never have high expectations for KBLs, but this one is really bad and it all comes down to the writing and editing.
you make an especially interesting point: why didn’t they just make a story about childhood friends meeting…
Right?!?! They took a simple idea and filled it with way to much useless and distracting junk. All the extra stuff might be interesting in a webtoon with 100+ chapters, where they flesh out the side characters and give them interesting things to do. I've read a lot of webtoons set in offices that are great. None spent a lot of time on PowerPoints or random projects that were super important and given to a group of interns to complete. The writers of this show are completely focused on the wrong things. No one watches an office romance to see how many times the lead can mess up a large coffee order or how many times his adult male fellow interns with zero charisma can talk behind his back. More episodes aren't gonna make the writing better.
I think I already have second couple syndrome though, because the brother was so outrageous that he and his boyfriend were my favs.
