As much as I liked this drama (I’m a fan of Zheng Ye Cheng very much) I think it’s a bit lacking. Mainly it’s a whole lot tell and less so show. They tell you he and he got this and this punishment but they don’t show it. They tell you she did that but doesn’t show it. They tell you he decided to abandoned camp but didn’t show it. I’m vague for spoiler reasons and I could go on if not for that but I think you get my point. I’m glad we got a drama with fewer episodes than a regular historical drama but for once I think it would have benefitted from a few more.

But overall it is a sweet drama with good chemistry between the leads and a villain who is good at villaining.

Oh, I didn’t mean you, I meant Bank shouldn’t read comments and reviews if he’s sensitive and starts to cry. And as I said, people might continue to watch for a number of reasons even though they don’t like the show as a whole. Me personally, I watched it mostly for Yoh and Sam, and what little we got of office intrigues. Leaving mean comments though is just unnecessary and kind of childish but then again, how old do you think a lot of the people who watch and comment on a series like SxV are?

I had no bigger issues with Banks wardrobe but I wish they would have made his runway clothes black instead of white. They resembled a wedding dress way too much and I think that was a little too on the nose. Also, the necklace would have made a bigger impact on a black canvas.

I’m sorry but if you’re that sensitive to critique and bad comments then maybe you should not read reviews and comments on places like X or IG or MDL or where ever he saw them. Because that’s what it’s like being an artist, not everyone likes what you do. It’s extremely hypocritical to pretend to like something and lie about it just because you don’t want to hurt the actors feelings. And maybe people kept watching the series because they hoped it would get better or they liked some part of it/some actors.

I had totally forgot I hadn’t finished this one so now I watched the last two episode. I can’t believe I missed Sam and Yoh in the sofa. Where did that body come from. Now, if those two could get their own BL I would be a happy girl for a very long while. Their chemistry through out this series is what made me bare with it. Because let’s be real, it wasn’t that good. Not even a 7.0 good as the ratings suggest. It’s a shame how little chemistry Bank and Mos had. Idk what happened there because they were great together in BD but here it was just meh.

Prim and Pim might possibly be the cutest GL side couple in a BL I have ever seen. I generally am of the opinion that GL couple should have their own series and it would be nice to get a spin off with these two characters.

In conclusion; I came for Mos and Bank, stayed for Sam and Yoh (sorry I can’t remember their actual names) and wished the series had focused more on office intrigues and less on boring relationships between Lin and Khun Dad. In the end I started to even ff M&Bs scenes. That’s how boring they were.

So, that’s my two cents on this. I won’t rewatch like ever unless I want my Yoh and Sam fix (and then I’ll use the ff button real well) but I suspect someone has made a YT or TikTok with them I can watch so yeah, there’s that.

GL should get their own series and not get treated like some second hand option just for the sake of it. The pure hate these girls get is ridiculous when it comes to BL and I can understand why they get it. Most GL couples in BL are written poorly. (I’m pretty sure BL writers don’t know/understand how to write GL without making the girls into stereotypes and cliches) They are silly and hysterical and try to cater to an audience that isn’t there. Most of the BL viewers aren’t interested in GL and are just annoyed by the girls. I don’t know if this makes sense at all but the short version is; the girls need their own series but by writing them into BL as side couples they don’t get that. They only get hate instead.

People complain too much about this series. Me, I watch it cause tongue action, and Rak is adorable and Dino is such a goner for him. Is cute is all I’m saying.

I read it on Kobo Books.

I absolutely love this series but I do think it would have benefited from having a couple of more episodes. I sometimes got the feeling things were missing or rushed over. It went too smooth. I’m all for keeping the drama on the low side but Oab was a bit too lenient on Wan tbh. Or, maybe not but we didn’t really get to see him being angry properly. We were just told months had passed. At least give them an episode on conflict and solution. Anyway, it was a nice series over all and the actors did a splendid job with their characters. I think the guy (I’m sorry I don’t know his name) playing Kluea was absolutely phenomenal. I hope to see more of him.

I don’t think Mame knows how to write GL so she should stay away from that genre. It’s an unfortunate trend to add a GL side couple in BL nowadays. Give the girls their own series. And don’t add BL side couples to their shows. Anyway…

It was a good finale. Maybe a bit predictable of course. I even at one point wished it would take the other route and not be a HEA. But yeah, I’m happy about the end too. Now I want a special episode about their happy life together, on and off island.

Why am I still watching?! 😩

Well, I was right about Khaosuay backing off. Or are you gonna tell me she’s gonna come back full force next episode now that the cat’s out of the bag? 🙄

Kluea, I’m sorry but what the f is he doing? First of all, he should have confronted Wan before showing Oab the video. Second, what’s with the beans. Does he hold that much of a grudge against Oab he actually intentionally wants Methas to demolish the restaurant?

Thank you for your answer. Sounds like it’s worth a try then. Quirky and goofy I can live with.

I’ll just pretend for a week that she’s a good person. I really want her to be. I’m tired of evil exes.

I definitely agree. I am intrigued by the story so far so I genuinely hope the can get it together. Knowing myself though, I will stick by it until the end no matter.

Thank you. I must have blinked when that apology and explanation happened. Even if there’s a lot to tell they should be able to focus and set a good pacing though. Three stories in one or not. Whatever that means.

What happened to the lawsuit and the plagiarism accusations? Are we just gonna ignore that? And just accept Shan as one of our own just like that? Idk, I’m still not sure about this. Things happens for no good reason without explanation just to move the plot forward and that’s just bad writing. Ozone not answering the door because Pie as in there for example, why couldn’t he do that? And what’s with the room mate we didn’t know about before, he obv had a problem with him but no buildup to that event . things move too fast, why are they in such a hurry?

I didn’t pay much attention to them but which ones were they? Would be interesting to check them out. If they can be found translated.

If that jar claims to taste like French fries then yes, we can give it a negative review.

I really can’t hate Khaosuay. I want to, but she’s only figured out her feelings run deeper and she hasn’t really done much wrong except been a bit pushy and perhaps taken a bit for granted that Oab would discover the same. But it actually seems like she is backing off after that talk with Nub. So it’s hard to hate on her.

Boy oh boy, that Methas. Was it really necessary to include that bathroom scene? Was it supposed to be sexy or something? Because that wasn’t it. Cringe 2.0 more like it. The moment in the cinema was cute though. Now I just hope Methas would let go of the thought of getting Wan to win the restaurant on his on volition. Hopefully JJ can teach him that love is more important than money.

I don’t look forward to the drama that will ensue when Oab finds out Wan is working for Methas. If it were me I would never forgive him.
