I just finished episode 3 and I want to kill myself... It's ONLY episode 3 and Babe's already kissing Charlie. There are 10 more episodes so what are they even going to show us at this point because Babe is already in love (which feels so out of character...). He even added a heart to Charlie's name in his contact. That's ridiculous! And I understand your feelings for the second couple now that they introduced Jeff, I don't feel them either... I don't really mind Jeff but I feel like Alan is a bit too intrusive when Jeff clearly specified that he doesn't like being touched. But at least, I'm okay watching their scenes compared to Babe and Charlie's. Also, is it me or the series turned a bit into sci-fi?... It became X-Men all of a sudden with children having powers and a weird guy using them for a unknown purpose... I don't know where they're going with that but it doesn't fit the genre of the series... Let's go watch episode 4! (And I've seen that you've already on episode 8! Is it any better?)

Yeah, I'm going to continue watching. I hate dropping shows, even if I don't like them, because I can't properly judge them. And sometimes (very rarely), the show got better by the end so we never know! My taste has also definitely changed. I know that if I were to rewatch some shows that I loved in the past nowadays, I would probably not like them as much or at all. But, unlike you, I've become less tolerant with all the clichés and tropes that they still use in some of the BL today. Sometimes, when it's well done, I accept them, but in this one, I can't...

I'm also glad to have found someone with the same taste as me. Sometimes, I wonder if I'm not too old for this type of shows... Maybe if I was younger I would've liked them but now, I've matured enough not to like dumb characters with innocent looks who only knows how to whine to get what they want... I don't know who is Jeff but I'll see if I like the second couple better. It was the case for LITA so... I'll see (if I have the courage to continue the series, of course!).
Is he attracted to his looks maybe? Have u watched LINA before? I just wanted to know if they're like PayuxRain…
In that case, I don't know why... I don't like judging actors by their looks but the guy is not great looking and he has no charms at all (just my opinion, of course). I've had the displeasure to watch LINA before and the premise looks the same. So if you like PayuxRain, you're probably gonna like this one. I personnally hated this ship.

Oh, my God, THANK YOU!!! But you're scaring me because if you've already watched 4 episodes and still think that way, I don't think I will be able to continue watching... It's very true that Babe's feelings make no freaking sense. The guy is supposed to use people to his advantage and just because the guy smells good (which is also a very weird approach...), he accepts to let him use his cars... Also, I forgot to write it in my first comment but I really dislike the s*x scenes right from the first episode... I didn't even have the time to get attached to the characters that I have to see them f**k (and I don't even like one of the guy). I'm not a prude but s*x scenes should have a purpose. Here, they are used just to please a certain audience... Anyway, I would even rate Charlie a 0 for now. He's not doing it for me.
I've just finished the first episode and, based on the rating, I thought I was gonna like this series but it is the complete opposite... First episode and I'm already rolling my eyes every time Chalie is on screen. I really hope he evolves throughout the series because he's a really detestable character. I hate his type of character: looking innocent, naive and dumb. I'm sorry but who asks to rent a racing car to a guy that they never met before expecting he's going to accept? I know it's probably an excuse but still, it's dumb and I hate those kind of settings for the two main leads to meet... Also, Babe is already acting like he loves this guy when he doesn't even know him! I mean, he shouldn't care that Winner takes him if he loses the bet! (even though, you shouldn't bet a person but that's another story...) So, I already dislike the main couple, which is not a good thing if I want to continue watching, so... should I continue?... I like Pavel and I'm happy to see Nut again. There's also Pon that I liked a lot in Make a Wish so I'll probably continue for them but I'll probably not gonna like this series... I should probably watch Sign instead (hopefully the rating is not lying on this one!).
I'm usually not a fan of teacher/student relationships but this one was cute and funny. Yes, it wasn't perfect (especially towards the end) but I really liked watching it and I would still recommend it.
My take on that is that they are referring to him getting to the point of thinking that Day can't be safe without…
I agree. I felt that Mhok was more in need of Day than Day himself. Just because he didn't want to lose him as he lost his sister. But I can understand a bit more Day's point of view now.
Day didn't want anyone to pity him as a disabled person. He wanted people to treat him as normal and not strange…
It's true that he became a bit overprotective. But I've never seen that as pity but love. But now that I've read your comments and reflected on it, I can see the pity they were refering to.
I think that they are equating pity with not treating Day as a sighted person. If Day could see, Mhok would have…
Do you think he would've? I think he would've still refused the job but after reading all your comments, I understand a bit more Day's point of view. I still think Mhok did all of that not out of pity but for himself. I feel like Mhok's life revolved around Day and he was the one who needed Day the most.
they don't say it bluntly so i will: mhok's lying was rooted in ableism. and that was what day couldn't forgive,…
I see... But I feel that Mhok wouldn't have accepted the job even if Day was sighted. To me, his only mistake was not to tell Day about the job offer but I see what you mean and I can see it now when remembering about Mhok's actions.
Absolutely love the series but can someone help me understand what was Mhok's mistake that they were all taking about? Because, apart from lying about him getting the job just because he didn't want to leave Day behind (because he was in love with him and not because he pitied him), I don't understand the "mistake" they keep refering to...
I actually liked the last episode (especially P'Aof's cameo haha). And this was by no means a short episode but…
I 100% agree with you. The scene at the airport was great but it would have been even better if Mhok really took his flight. I was kind of expecting him to go back to the US, resigned from his job and return to Thailand. Because he didn't take his flight but what about his job in the US? We had no explanation about that. Also, as you said, it would have been better for Day to gain his vision back little by little. A quick search on the Internet helped me find out that it can take months after a cornea transplant for the vision to improve so it is really unlikely that Day can immediately see his relatives just after the surgery. Also, we don't know much about how Mhok got the job at Day's mum's restaurant and Day's life as a whole. Did he keep in touch with Aon? What about his shop? A lot was missing. Or maybe, I got too attached to the story and the characters that I wanted to see more, I don't know...
I absolutely loved this episode. It was Tay's episode all the way. I think this is the first time that I see him cry in a series (I can't remember another series in which he cries...) and he was so good!! I also loved that it is the only episode in which we don't hear anyone's mind voices. We didn't hear anything when Min hugged Jinta and the same goes for Karan hugging Achi (even Achi noticed it). That was a nice touch, I think.
It's cute, but honestly, it's pretty much exactly the same as the japanese version so far, at least as far as…
It is adapted from the same manga so, of course, the story is very similar. However, it is not exactly the same. They made lots of changes while staying faithful to the original material and they added a few more scenes from the manga that was not in the Japanese version (I'm talking about the business trip). I'm a fan of the Japanese version and I love this Thai version because it feels very different from the Japanese one. I really feel like I'm watching a totally different series (which is the case).
Oh, ok, I'm not the only one who has the same problem. I thought there was something wrong with my VPN, because…
No. I've tried some VPN already but I don't want to pay for something that I barely need so because they were free, they didn't really work or the countries choice were limited.
And I understand your feelings for the second couple now that they introduced Jeff, I don't feel them either... I don't really mind Jeff but I feel like Alan is a bit too intrusive when Jeff clearly specified that he doesn't like being touched. But at least, I'm okay watching their scenes compared to Babe and Charlie's.
Also, is it me or the series turned a bit into sci-fi?... It became X-Men all of a sudden with children having powers and a weird guy using them for a unknown purpose... I don't know where they're going with that but it doesn't fit the genre of the series...

I don't know who is Jeff but I'll see if I like the second couple better. It was the case for LITA so... I'll see (if I have the courage to continue the series, of course!).
