The Thai version just makes me want to watch the original J series. It's a disappointment on so many levels, but that was clear from the trailer. First of all, the casting is unclear, especially the choice of Tay, who is cute, but he's not as handsome as described, and the character needs to be beautiful because that's the whole point - his beauty works for him. Also, the second actor doesn't look like a muscular and insecure guy. His appearance, his acting, and generally, he's not convincing. Their choices in scenes are very strange, but that happens often with Thai adaptations. The Japanese are always precise, everything is calculated and in place. But with the Thai version, it seems done without thought and without attention to detail. The elongation in speeches and dragging out of scenes are strange to me. In general, it's not convincing or attractive, and lacks the charm that the original series had. There's also no humor at all, which was a focal point of the Japanese version. It's hard to meet the standards of Japan, and it would have been better if the Thai hadn't taken on this project at all.
I'm fond of the music in the series, which doesn't happen 99 percent of the time with Thai series. However, the series is very slow and cliché, the characters are very annoying especially the girl, Night is confusing and frustrating, and the other guy is confused. But we're waiting for something to happen; somehow it passes, probably because of the main actor who portrays Night.
I liked it, it's funny, the characters are beautiful and humorous, and there's good chemistry. At the end of the episode, I missed a beat and it was a bit cruel to cut it off like that and now to wait a week. The Japanese always outdo everyone.
I liked this Zee compared to the previous episodes. It's clear that Zee doesn't want to be Sprite but be anyone…
I'm sorry to say this, but she's sick. I don't think she wants him to be an athlete like she's in love with the coach, which is maybe his dream. I also noticed later that First is not surprised they called him Sprite, but on the other hand, he didn't turn around immediately. But ultimately, he probably knows. It's hard for me to believe that such a mistake was made in the editing, so he probably knows. It doesn't fit them too well because of the lighting there by the bed and also because he is always angry from some jealousy instead of confronting him about it.
I didn't notice the beds, that's amusing. Regarding the kiss, I didn't understand what you meant. Do you think…
I think he's kissing Sprite because in the kissing scene he seems too eager to be Zee. He's also the one who probably drinks the bottle because he's holding the bottle with his bandaged hand, so the bottle is from a scene after.
It's about time they drop the twin pretend to be each other from the story line and focus on the family, also…
According to the trailer that was released at the time, it seemed that the series was heading towards depth and a bit of darkness. But it's possible that they flattened the plot and made the series more trendy or sweet. There's a complex story here that doesn't get realistic attention. Many things don't sit well, and their relationship is lacking – the fact that they don't tell the truth, that they don't really communicate, is a problem. In any case, they have wonderful chemistry and it's still the only enjoyable series currently available.
That kiss between Sprite and First was hot. Hehehe First and Sprite pushed their beds together with the letters…
I didn't notice the beds, that's amusing. Regarding the kiss, I didn't understand what you meant. Do you think that First will actually kiss Zee instead of Sprite?
The chemistry between the two lead actors is fantastic. During the kiss, First's hands were shaking. I don't know if anyone else noticed. The editing was also different between episode 7 and 8. Some parts were re-edited, and I think it was more intense in episode 7, but it was still very exciting to watch that scene from another angle, and of course, they extended it to the heartbeats scene. What bothers me and somewhat detracts from the enjoyment is the lying part. I find it hard to understand why Sprite is still lying to First after they have already established intimacy between them. It seems unfair to me, and the rationale is also unclear. Of course, there's no proper communication, but this lie is annoying because there's no justified reason to keep dragging this out between them alone.
is first actually knew that all this time, he was with "sprite" and not "zee"? because the name of the phonecall…
Right, I thought it was just the translation, but I checked and it turns out that it's probably what's written in Thai. Thanks for pointing that out, it seemed odd to me that First the wise and suspicious didn't notice.
Why are they pairing Neo with the most unmatchable pair? He is so underrated. To me, he is one of the leading actors, but for some reason, in the "GMM" production, he is only a tool to use. Now they've portrayed him as a beast, devoid of value and driven by envy. I'm not complaining about the plot because I understand that adding chaos can make things exciting. However, it seems to highlight how no one has values. To me, It feels as though the producer himself doesn't believe in anyone and has some scars, so he cannot see anyone as good. It's not the first time this has happened (Friends Zone, Gay ok bankok). I understand that viewers craving for action, but what I don't grasp is the extent to which he is portrayed characters. I've started skipping these scenes with Mew too It is not because he's a good character; it's because Book makes it boring.
Those who claim that the K version is bad compared to the Thai version do not understand K films at all. In fact, it is much better than the Thai version. I would not be surprised if the producer is old or has studied classic K films, as it takes viewers back to the 2000s. It is made well, funny and charming, and pretty nostalgic in the way the film is made. I didn't even remember the original one, and I had to check it back to remember the nonsense they made 3 years ago.
The drama itself is not the best; it's boring at times. Half of episode 7 was basically a long commercial, and we have to admit that Dunk is not a good actor. However, for me, Joong makes up for it. The show also has some adorable moments.
I don't care much for Top and Maw; I don't understand why they're considered the primary couple. For me, the best couple is Sand and Ray. I also enjoy Boston. I felt the first episode was superior. Usually, it's the other way around, I guess it highlighted the weak spots in the so called plot. on none plot. Bed scenes are not enough.
Like "Step by step", Their production has a high budget, but they just can't make it entertaining. It's boring and drags on. They could have condensed the episode to 30 minutes instead of stretching it to 70. I predict it will end the same as SBS, endless loop
I really like the couple, especially their chemistry and acting, as well as the affectionate moments between them. However, my main reservation is about their repetitive fights. The previous time they fought, was needed, but now it's becoming tiring. They are already dating, so why not communicate better? The conflict in such a short episode feels too extreme and it's exhausting. If they had extended the episode and resolved their issues within it, it might have been better.
Boys over flower plot. Thai never ceases to amaze me. They have progressed and developed. I didn't expect it. In the past, I thought they would never improve, but now they've proven me wrong. It was a great episode.
People have lost their ability to enjoy or understand comedies. This is why many Comedians are being criticized. It's as if they can't even laugh at things anymore; they are censored. But a Comedy cannot truly be a comedy if it doesn't find stupidity of others or being stupid as all humans are.
