I think you're referring the old trailer, the one that they made before they even started shooting the series.…
Thank you for the link, but I have seen this trailer. Gulf seems to be a rookie actor and it shows. Also a PTSD storyline can always go horribly wrong. That kind of storyline needs some heavy drama and maybe an open end, but it looks like they are going in a different direction. I also feel like there is no chemistry between the leads. Still I hope for the best and I will watch it for sure!
This storyline has a lot of potential, but it looks cheaply produced, bad acted and overall too cheesy and cringy. Hopefully I'm wrong, but the trailer wasn't looking that good :(
No they aren't the fighting kinda couple this time. If you've noticed, they are more intimate and comfortable…
Most (I suppose younger) people like the cheesy stuff. I'm a bit sad, because I would wish for some more mature and well told BL series, but at the end of the day all those stories follow the same plot to make sure fans will be satisfied. Pete&Kao are playing it safe too, but at least the execution is more mature. Their interacting, their bickering, their sweet scenes are well acted and pretty smart. Tay and New are pulling it off in an incredible way. Their affection for each other shows in every scene. Their acting is so natural and feels "real" while in many other series it's a bit awkward when the two guys interact. Sometimes that awkwardness is part of the chemistry, but Tay&New just feel at ease when they are with each other. It's so obvious that they are really, really close friends in real life and because of that they are unable to pull off the stupid fan service. It's hilarious, honestly. Seeing those guys passionately kiss would make me faint though. I will admit as much :P
I wonder why so many people are worked up about Suzy‘s acting or how her character is not portrayed in a realistic way. This show has some bigger problems! It focuses too much on the overall story. The characters are mere tools to put the plot forward. I don't care for any of them. They are not interesting enough and that's a HUGE fail. On a side note: Korea is a bit late to the game. We got in the last two decades enough of those terrorism stories (mostly from the US though). I'm just not in the mood to watch this.

Honestly, I'm not here for what others call "romance". I feel like most people think staring in each others eyes, all shy and in love, being all cute together etc. is "romantic". I could never get into the Krist/Singto pairing even though Sotus is a very good show. I refused watching Love By Chance for a long time, because the main couple was just too much for me. Talking about Pete&Kao I thought their episode in Our Skyy was VERY romantic. That kiss on the bridge was great, the dialogue cute and funny. Kao leaning onto Pete with that cute smile – that's what I call romantic! My heart melted. Those two don't even need to kiss to make my heart beat faster, but I'm sure their popularity would increase a lot if they deliver good kisses.

I kinda agree that their interaction is not romantic/sensual/sexual. But at the same time I must admit watching them in Kiss Me Again got me ... ahem ... very excited (in a romantic/sensual/sexual way). So there is something special about those two for sure. If they deliver some good kisses, everyone will go crazy. After seeing New kiss Earth in Waterboys and Tay kissing his co-stars in 3 will be free I hope they are not holding back anymore.
Okay, the Tin&Can pairing was really something else. I felt like I have never seen characters and a story like this before. Both actors did great, especially Tin. Very intense guy and very convincing acting. Not at all predictable. Really refreshing. I got such a strange (but pleasant) feeling watching those two ... I cannot explain it ...
I feel really guilty now, because I really did enjoy this series, but now after watching the new season, it has…
Don't know about the second season, but the first one was cringy as hell. No idea why so many liked it. I'm trying season 2 now. Hopefully it's better ...
And let's all pray that this won't end like Together with me the next Cheater
I don't have high hopes. Pete&Kao story in Kiss Me Again was one cliche after another. They did well where other stories failed (for example the girlfriend issue was resolved pretty fast), still it was the same old plot. If they could come up with something new, this would be great. But judging by the trailer this will be about acceptance, outing and jealousy like we have seen it before many times.
I agree with you and I am really confused because this novel and the author are really praised in thailand apparently…
The quality of BL stories in Asia isn't that great to begin with. They are very open about Gay love and get a lot of international fans, but the stories itself are full of cliches and questionable plots. Like Heroin/Addicted which was such a HUGE success. The novel is terrible written, the plot pretty disgusting. Lately I thought about it, that those BL stories are sooo similar. Guy falls in love with other guy, gay-panic, a girlfriend appears, coming-out-issues, bullying or typical top-bottom-cliches. I'm not complaining, but they should come up with something more original already. In Theory of Love we had again a weak "bottom" which is very submissive and lots of (emotional) violence he had to endure in the name of love. If not for the chemistry between the actors, I wouldn't even watch those series.
What is he lacking? There are so many (young) actors out there who’s acting is rather awkward, but New‘s acting…
Oh Jesus ... I have only seen him in Waterboys and Kiss Me Again, where he played two very different characters and did a good job. But Love Beyond Frontier ... oh Jesus. I think it's not fair to judge an actor, because of ONE bad acting job, because I know several Korean Actors that are incredible talented and also had this ONE drama, where their acting was atrocious. Sometimes the director or scriptwriter is to blame. But well ... oh Jesus. Krist's acting in this show is also unbearable to watch. What were they thinking? Terrible show. It physically hurt to watch this.
Thank u for the rant, I will skip. It's a couple of years that GMMTV don't give us good non bl series, I think…
Who is ahead of everyone? The Japanese? I must admit I'm an anime fan for almost 20 years, but never watched much of their dramas. Can you suggest some with BL content or gender bender?
Taiwan is trying to do something different like they did with "Trapped", but it seems local fans were hating on it. So back to the old stuff, I guess.
I like TayNew but nothing can beat YuZhou. I Believe if china didn't ban YuZhou they will keep flowing and beat…
But YuZhou is gone, unfortunately. I was never a fan of their story either. Addicted/Heroin had a very toxic and questionable plot. Still those two were incredible. The only BL actors I ever shipped in real life (I normally don't do that). There was undoubtedly something special about them.
Tay&New have the advantage of a better told story (also compared to Knock&Korn who's relationship just never seem to work). Their natural acting, their incredible chemistry ... with some good kissing they would make it really big. But I don't know if the couple has any future either. It seems especially New isn't that interested in BL roles anymore.
We will see ... Still those two are the only ones (after the YouZhou couple) I enjoy stalking on YouTube :P
I feel this whole shipping culture is going downhill. There is so much drama and so many "couples" that break up ... The industry is to blame. They are just going too far with all that fan service.

Well, it's not like their BL stories are original. The plot is ALWAYS the same. I'm here for the BL, don't get me wrong, but let's be honest for a moment ...
