In a flashback scene in an earlier episode, we see Thup as an infant, with an oddly-colored left eye.
Later when we see Thup as an adult, the difference in eye color is noticeable in some scenes. The right eye is a sortof golden hazel brownish color, and the left eye seems to be more gray. So far there's been no explanation for the oddity.
But in Ep 3 - it looks like his eyes are the same color.
I went back and looked again, and I'm still seeing his eyes as the same color.
A thought-provoking short film about a man who can't move on after a breakup, which seems to have happened a long time ago.
He's a photographer who used to specialize in color images. But his world and his photographic vision have both lost their joy and energy, and now he can only work in black and white.
He's caught up in the memories of that past relationship, still fantasizing about intimate moments with his ex, still gazing sadly at old photos, still unable to happily date anyone else.
Even when he's outside in the sunshine and fresh breeze with a potential new love interest, there's a melancholy stillness that lives on his skin. His heart is locked in a windowless room, and he's simply not motivated to find the key.
Personally, I really felt this story. At one time my own heart was locked in that windowless room. My own world lost its color for a while. I lived this film.
The ending is not a conclusion. It's just a signal that he's not ready to move on yet. But maybe he will be, some day.
I agree, the silly tantrums and general stupidity are annoying. I want a smart villain, not just a hot, dumb one.
Exactly. The way his character is portrayed in the series, he's not much of a foil for Pheem. I would rather have seen much more of a battle of wits between the two brothers.
But on a separate note......many comments here on this page talk about how they want to see Jet (Chet) have some kind of relationship with the bodyguard.
But HOLY CRAP, would YOU be attracted to a screaming toddler in an adult body? How in the world would anyone? I mean, I can see why everyone would say that. There is some chemistry, but UGH. I feel for the bodyguard.
I am enjoying everything about this series......except for one thing.
Jet (Chet) and his SCREAMING tantrums.
His emotional maturity apparently stopped advancing around the age of 3.
Of course his feelings / emotions / anger / jealousy / frustration / fear / despair, etc are important to his character. But did they have to make him such a big freaking diaper baby, basically? A screaming toddler who needs to be put in the time out corner for a few YEARS until he calms his childish ass down???
Although it's not a fast-paced series, the story and the characters have still drawn me in. I watched Ep 4 today and panicked a little. I was thinking it was the last episode and wondered how they could end it like that.
But per the comments below, it sounds like there will be a few more episodes. I'm glad, because I need to know how the story finishes.
After watching that video, I am even angrier than I was before.
So basically, the companies got into a giant pissing match with all kinds of legal fuckery, and in the process, pretty much DESTROYED the mental and emotional health, as well as the amazing partnership, of two incredible actors.
That's why Smart and Boom STILL both look sad sometimes, and they both say there are things they are not allowed to talk about.
Top Form aside (because it looks like there will never be another couple-ship for them, related to that series).......are they legally not allowed to work together anymore, in ANY capacity?
The other side of the coin might be that.....even if Smart and Boom were allowed to work together again......they got so close during Top Form that they might not want to deal with any emotional entanglement with each other, for fear of getting hurt again (by the companies).
The whole situation is infuriating and heartbreaking.

But.....I'm wondering if we should switch that to Shu Lang challenging Hua Yong. I think there's more to Shu Lang than meets the eye.
Revenged Love
ABO Desire
Secret Relationships
I get the feeling there is MUCH more to Shu Lang than meets the eye.
And since Fan Xiao and Shu Lang are both tops, it'll be interesting to see how this plays out.
This is going to be TOXIC AF. And I am SO here for it.
LOLOL
It was more like polite yelling. It was so wimpy, it was infuriating.
In that scene Pooh should have been full on SCREAMING his head off.
(Clarification - I feel like this ^^^ is a mistake by the director, not Pooh.)
I hope Pooh breaks out of that rut at some point. Or gets a better director that demands more. SOMEthing.
Was anyone else besides me hoping for a major change in Pooh's acting now that he's in a different series?
Is anyone besides me disappointed that his acting is exactly the same as it was in Pit Babe 1 & 2?

Am I the only one who sees that?
Hmmmm.
Ao Ruipeng had to take matters into his own hands to deal with some nutjobs who were stalking him.

It is such a massive turn-off.
