Koichi's mom is Kitarie????? The first time I saw her I thought she looks so young to be a mom and seems like a former AKB48 member... and I wasn't wrong lol
After watching ep 15, I want to see Book in a series with a female partner. I don't know... but he looks like a disney prince in his scene with View tbh
I don't think the kisses were that stiff.. Yeah, the blockings of some kisses are bad, but for me the real problem…
Lol my memory must've been altered because of that high five indeed, plus I never really rewatched it after I finished the whole series way back in 2020
Well, after all the fuss and anticipation, this show came to an end. It was sweet, enjoyable at times, they were…
I don't think the kisses were that stiff.. Yeah, the blockings of some kisses are bad, but for me the real problem are the camera angles and editing. But Jimmy and Sea doesn't look forced when kissing so they're quite good imo
I just started watching this series and I noticed something different in the way Taohu speaks.. It's been 2 years since I started watching thai series so I am familiar with 'krap/kha' which is the standard (pls correct me if the term is wrong) while those from north uses 'jao' to end their sentences in a more formal/respectful manner. But Taohu says 'ha' at the end of his sentences. Does anyone know what region speaks this way?
I think it's Have I found by Sea Tawinan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YNIfcu8-ZU
Yes, I'm looking for the instrumental version, but I think the instrumental on the intro is a bit different. It sounds more magical and mysterious, that's why I'm so obsessed finding a clearer and longer version of it 😅
...yet it seems like even though a lot of things are 'happening', it doesn't feel like 'something' is happening…
Oh, my bad. What I meant was I like the story in general.. but yeah, the pacing is quite weird, which I honestly didn't mind at all during the past episodes.
I think the parallel universe element gave the plot a nice touch. They'll fall in love without knowing each other's physical appearance, and there will be some angst because one wants to go back to their original universe while the other don't. But I think it will become even more interesting after they returned to their original universe. They (will) fall in love in another universe and known each other's personalities, but when the time comes, will they find and still recognize each other? I hope they'll return at least before the last 3-4 episodes, because it'll be interesting to see how they'll deal with the situation back in their universe.
As for the characters, I think it was okay to not really knowing more about them before the swap, as long as their personalities and background will slowly unravel while they're in the other universe.
In my perspective, Talay is someone who is very passionate about his aspirations. But he can be quite silly and cute in his ways when he's not working. He doesn't care about love, but as time passes, he gradually opened up to Puen's advances after spending a lot of time with him. The only problem is that, yes we've seen them flirt and all, but it could've been better if they showed us more of the process. I actually find it hard how to explain this 😅 But their relationship/connection is like this - we've seen the raw and finished product, but we only saw a glimpse of the process. Maybe that's why to some, Talay's character seems to appear inconsistent, even though it's actually part of his growth. It really isn't a big deal to me, but I am hoping that there'll be scenes on later episodes that can redeem this.
I think I kinda get now why the story is being criticize.. I really like the concept, storyline, and acting of…
...yet it seems like even though a lot of things are 'happening', it doesn't feel like 'something' is happening at all.
I'll try to explain it in detail and this might be long, and I don't really know much about literary terms so I request for your understanding..
Let me say something about [how I understand] the concept first.
It appears to many (even to me at first) that the parallel universe is the core of the story. So to some viewers, it feels like the parallel universe element is not being utilized wisely because it seems that the story doesn't even emphasized that the MCs are in another universe. After the maze fiasco, they are just living the life of Tess and Tun normally.
BUT on Inside Vice Versa, P'X said that after reading (or 'understanding'? I don't recall what he exactly said) the manuscript, the story is about HUMAN RELATIONSHIP. So if my interpretation is correct, they wouldn't go really big about the parallel universe thing, except for it being an element to bring Talay and Puen together. Though maybe it may cause conflict on later episodes, since iirc on the trailer, Puen wants to stay in that universe, while Talay don't. So the other universe may be different in some ways, but it won't really affect the story (though as other people said here, it might be interesting to see how Talay and Puen will explore it; but it might not be that significant to the story so personally, I really don't mind at all).
Now, about the story..
Like what I've said, it's going fast and a lot of things are happening, yet it doesn't feel like there's really something that happens. I didn't noticed this at first because really like the concept and plot, and I do understand that it is reasonable to do time skips and such. So I do understand that around those times, there was 'something' that happened between Talay and Puen. BUT, it would've been a little bit better if what's happening those times were shown on our screens. Maybe that's what some viewers wanted to see.
This occurred to me because I was quite surprised how hurt both Puen and Talay was after that paint-on-glass-wall scene (lol I don't know how to describe the scene better, sorry). I have seen the flirting and it's cute and all, but the kiss at the end could've been more impactful if we've seen more scenes of them together while their fondness with each other develops.
Tho, I really like the story in general, it's straightforward and very enjoyable to watch. It's not as bad as what others think. Plus JimmySea are great actors. Don't compare them with OhmNanon. Their acting may not be on par with them, but JimmySea are doing great on their first main role. And their chemistry is just sooooo good!
So, that's all for me. Sorry if my explanation is a mess, but I hope you can understand what I wrote haha
I think I kinda get now why the story is being criticize.. I really like the concept, storyline, and acting of both leads so I didn't noticed this at first. The story is going a little bit fast (tho I don't mind at all), yet it seems like..

lmfao the only people who hate soohyun are the yohan and gaon shippers. it’s vv weird that y’all ship them…
I don't ship any of the characters, but I still hate soo hyun. She may not be evil like the other villains, yet she's still annoying.
Though, I agree that the relationship of Yohan and Gaon could pass only as brothers. I even thought Gaon could be his or his brother's child lol. But for me, they appear more as mentor-mentee relationship (though with Gaon's stupidity, he can't be even counted as Yohan's mentee)
I think one of the reasons people think Puen is moving too fast is that we don't have a sense of what his life…
This!!!! 💯 The story is pretty cute and straightforward tbh, so I don't get why people are 'too' critical when it comes to VV.. given that it's only 3 episodes so far and a lot may still unfold on the following episodes
What I like about VV so far, aside from the acting, is the way they know when and which part they have to use slow mo, especially during kiss scenes. Because sometimes, some series often slow mo almost every time the leads kiss, and also at some scenes which doesn't really feels right. But with the editing of VV's first 3 episodes, it's quite commendable so far.
(And why did the rating went back down at 8.3????)
I don't know why but it doesn't really feel like any of those past BLs. I might be exaggerating but there's really something in the 1st episode that makes me feel that VV is different. I already watched previous works of JittiRain and a few of those directed by P'X, but I can't pinpoint if that 'difference' is due to the story or the production. It's a 'good' vibes of being different tho and I can't help to raise my expectations. Hoping for this series' success!
