At first I thought that Naran was gonna be the one in danger of dying. But after this latest episode I feel like its definitely gonna be Krailert in the protection of someone.
We're definitely gonna get a bittersweet ending. I think that with both of them constantly loving and hating each other the only peace they will get is in death. This next meeting Huai Yi propose to Shu Heis gonna be their final one. Maybe we'll get one last true romantic moment between the two then both will die.
I do not see him that way. None of the things that happened to him were in any way his fault. He did not act reckless.…
Just because someone can help you doesn't mean that they should especially as its the needs of one stranger against a village he's being protecting forever. And its very similar to the novel because some of those traits are still seen here. And I'm still watching the series because its well done and the story is interesting. I like the horror aspects and the way its executed. The romance element is the weakest part for me and I'm glad its not that prevalent now, even though typically when shows start off like this and the romance element starts up, the story part tends to petter off and that ruins the show for me. I'm not here for just one character but the whole production and I won't let one part of the story ruin everything else.

Maybe it's just my annoyance of him as a character in the novel as well. Here in the series he keeps trying to get Master to help him even though Master keeps telling him he can't and doing so would damn his entire village by going against his promise and role he's had for many, man years, before Khem even showed up, to protect the village. I like the fact that Khem meddles to try to right some wrongs but even when he's told multiple times to leave other things alone, he still barges in and because of his karma is makes everything worse. The only reason the whole village is suffering worse fates is because Khem is there and he won't leave. When someone has the sensible thought to get rid of the thing that's making everything worse, Khem keeps only thinking of himself and it kinda feels manipulative. Like "I'm gonna stay here so that the problems get bad enough that you have no choice but to help me get rid of it." Or even "You've helped me with this small matter so you should help me again." Heck in the novel the only thing that got people to help Khem with all his terrible situations was someone taking a look at him and think he was pretty. That was it. He was so pretty that people willingly got involved with dangerous situations just to help him.
I like the fact that Khem wants to help but does he also get on your nerves as well? Master keeps telling him to do something for a reason but he keeps thinking he knows best even though he constantly needs help from other people and can barely save himself? Like cmon
I can't even say I love this show because it's way too raw. The same issues are still ongoing in many parts of…
Right?! I hated that he is in a loveless marriage with her and cheats on so and felt so sorry for her, but that one sentence from her gave me pause. Now I'm questioning why her father even wanted him to marry her if he knew that he was gay. It got me thinking maybe she KNEW or even had some part in making Krailert marry her for her own selfish reasons.
Tanwa is so unserious its ridiculous. But I think he is exactly what Trin needs because he makes him happy. Hell he even recognized that his biggest issue was him being depressed and slowly, understandably, encourages him to stay in that happiness. Trin had to tell Krailert that he was depressed and he's his family and didn't notice, and his advice was not the best.
I do agree with Victor's father saying no system is perfect even democracy. Like you said look at the U.S right now. Nothing was meant to las forever and sometimes things need to break before it can be fixed.
I heard that people refer to this more as a gay original series rather than a BL because of the different connotations of what that means in terms of production, commentary, and handling of many issues.
Oh I definitely think victor has some worship for Trin now. Trin is trying to give him the respect he is asking for as someone trying to fight for the people, and might be slowly changing his views of all rich people being evil. My only issue is that his affection for Trin might be detrimental to his cause as that worship/respect for Trin might slowly turn into hatred/deterrent as he sees that Trin does not hold him in the same regard.
Love the subtle shift of Naran and Krailert turning their more public column of lyrical analysis (under the disguise of flirting and foreplay) to more intimate cat and mouse game in the romance novels (even if it is irking my peace with them writing in the books! 😂) They already had a connection if we can gather from the first episode they had been writing to each other for an undetermined amount of time as pretty much the entire community is investing in their responses to each other. So while the NC scene might seem like its come out of left field for us, for them this was probably just a compilation of weeks, months, years of building that romantic side.
We have only 5 episodes left and while I myself is invested in the romance aspect of this shows, its also great to see how all these small political breadcrumbs will cumulate into some of the other scenes shown in the official trailer and how it will affect all the characters.
I don't want them to but in the trailer it already shows him with shorter hair...so you will get your wish 😔
I like his hippie hair. Matches the era and his character lol. To be fair he does look good with short hair, his previous roles are a testament to that. Which is why I wanted them to keep it this time 😭
It was an enjoyable watch but man did the whole stupid storyline with Wang Shuo and then his mom telling Chi Cheng to keep secrets and them not FREAKING TALKING TO EACH OTHER and not saying what they really mean made me want to just give up on this show. Piss me all the way off that I almost DNF so close to the end. Ugh
Krailert’s scene with general was really fcked up and sadly very realistic. Government is clearly aware of his…
True. Two characters I worry about the most are Victor and Naran. One because of the Krailert's past history. They will of course keep an eye on him. They will come to the conclusion that 1) he's either back to engaging in his "preference" or 2) telling secrets to the press about the deal. Either way it might not end well for one or both of them if they think that. And then Victor, he is a believer and often times true believers becomes martyrs to their cause. His enemies has no qualms about making people disappear and we only have again history, with Claire in Paris, that protesting you can end up losing your life. I can't wait to see how all these stories progress but make no mistake there will be heartbreak at some point.
I'm actually a little happy with the fact that she will keep changing between the two. Really pushes the fact that you love the person for who they are, not what they look like.
I'm enjoying it so far but holy crap am I tired of Min practically telling everyone he's from the future, and making himself look crazy. On the other hand someone can believe him and try to use it to their advantage. Then there is the fact that he could literally make changes right now but he keeps doing so that doesn't really benefit him and seems to be making relationships he doesn't have yet start off bad. He knows he's in the past, time to get over that and stop being so surprised by it every time you meet someone he "knows" and try to make a better future.
"Will you tell me now why you had ne lie about being bullied?"Imagine Bison knows everything that's going, but…
Glad I'm not the only one who thought that! Like he noticed he was being followed the whole time and we didn't see until it was a flashback. I really hope Bison is actually as smart as hitmen are supposed to be and his "cute" nature is how he gets people to underestimate him.
