I liked this episode. The storytelling is moving forward in the relationship of Fah and Sherbet, plus 2nd leads and thank fuck, Fah and Sherbet yet again, didn't have sex or show any forms of intimacy! Result! My eyes were pleased they didn't need to watch that oh so badly done.
I find myself astounded by Asian culture. I'd say perhaps 9/10 of the BL and hetro dramas I watch the bad people always come away unscathed with literally no recourse for their actions. Why is this? I find it a real head fuck that doing bad is rarely punished. Both stories in this drama have showcased this and actually exacerbated it to the next level. Am I to think that power, influence and money speak above human decency and morals? #ShakesHead.
I'll be honest. I was expecting something better because of all the hype leading up to the first episode. However, having read a few of the comments of those who have read the book, it now makes total sense to me where the story is going and I adore hate to love storylines. So, I'll be here for the 8 episodes. And no, I don't get why peeps are comparing it to Kinnporsche, nothing like in my brain.
There's something about this drama which draws me in week-after-week. To be honest, I couldn't give a flying fuck about the curse narrative, doesn't interest me in the least, only in the way it affects and drives Akk's heavy burden and choices. However, I find myself invested in the story behind Ayan's uncle. Now that I find interesting . #Oh!My SunshineNight, you could learn some lessons here in how to create suspense and weave an interesting by-line story that actually makes sense but remains BL, which you've been too lazy to think about and deliver. #Just Sayin'
What for me is really interesting and delivered oh so beautifully, is the chemistry and interactions between Akk and Ayan especially, but also Thua and Khan. Really lovely acting by 1st and 2nd leads. Beautiful to witness. Ayan, never giving up and being brave in his love. Literally putting his love for Akk out there time and time again, irrespective of the many knock backs he's received. I find myself quite transfixed by him. He understands and knows his man - this much I see. This is a man who is understanding of his potential partner and willing to play the patient long game for his love. #Respect. When it comes to intimacy between the two, I find their interactions oh so sensual, honest and believable.
Thua and Khan are beyond adorable. I especially love that Thua so absolutely knows how Khan feels about him and is bringing his wise game play to the party to hook his man. Clever, clever boy. #Respect And, the twist, although I thought I knew who the texts were from, it was heart warming to see😍!
OK! Now, I actually like the start of Sky/Prapai. Prapai seems to be as much of an a**hole as he is in the novel.…
Greetings! See, I didn't think he was an arsehole in the novel, more a complete joker, piss taker and shameless like 24/7. He constantly had me laughing at his cheek and antics. Totally agree, Sky in the novel is seriously sassy and I'd love to see that here.
Good start to the Skye and Prapai story. Personally, I don't think Prapai is an arsehole, he's just arrogant, confident and now knows what he wants and he wont stop until he gets it. Hope, like the book, Sky is seriously sassy, because up to now in the drama he's been wise, astute and considered. Bring it on you power bottom! I'm here for it all!
Beautiful OST and excellent acting - so raw, so heartfelt, so believable in their pain and sorrow.. However, as believable and beautiful as the acting was, that story was totally unbelievable and the conclusion therefore unnecessary. Too many “But you knew,…so why didn’t you’s” for me.
I know right! Can they even call it a BL? To me, every other boring shit has been thrown into the mix, except…
Yeah, it frustrates me to hell. I’m astounded how it managed to end up this way. It really is a bizarre mess with ZERO story. Can’t believe it even got signed off to air.
