They even cut parts of scenes that had other music entirely...like SooAh singing right before MiRae dances to "New Face"...I feel like I'm going to have to pirate every show now if the major networks edit the shows so much years later. They are literally skipping a scene in which the ML gets pushed up on stage to "help" SooAh cause she can't sing well....

I guess all the streaming services don't have the rights to "New Face" cause what in the heck is the music playing in episode 1? There is a whole joke/context missing because you can't hear the song playing.

I just want to punt Faye across a room into a concrete wall...I hate hate hate people like her. A user and manipulator who will tease and pretend that everything is okay because they are smiling at you.🤢🤮
If you can't tell, I've actually known people like her in real life. The heavy "pick-me" era of the early aughts was a wild time for a teenager.

Just looking at his page, it looks like he left his company....so my guess is just a transition period. I don't know if Thailand has the same issues with blacklisting when artists leave certain companies though.

I tend to avoid toxic romance lines these days. Unless they changed how the ML treats the FL in the story I'm not sure it will be my cuppa. I've seen Hana Yori Dango, BoF, and the OG Meteor Garden 14ish years ago...I tried to get into the newer Meteor Garden & realized it wasn't really my vibe anymore. I know that the cast in the Thai version are all doing really well right now(rabbit hole after looking more into the cast of Beauty Newbie), so I might watch the first few episodes to see how I feel about their version. Cause I've noticed that even if they are following the same source material the different countries tweak things here and there. I liked the Thai version of It Started With a Kiss/Playful Kiss much more than the others because they changed a few things here and there to make the story more palatable imo.
Thank you for the recommendation!🥰

All I've got to say to the younger actor trainees and those that are still teenagers and thinking about a career in entertainment...get your military service out of the way as quickly as possible. Actors tend to hit their peak popularity in their mid to late twenties. This is when most of them are bookable for both high school/college age roles as well as adult roles. Sometimes it does work out for those who become popular and then enlist, as people are looking forward to their discharge and what their first role back will be. But if the young actor can afford to do their military service early....do it.
Also the child actors who take their military service either right before college or after are able to make that transition from kid to adult roles more easily.
I know that there are a lot of horror stories from the military, but I will say that there are a lot of entertainers that come out looking like they got an entire glow-up. (I think this is just cause they are eating well and exercising more)
A lot of people have been spreading more awareness what happens while enlisted thanks to social media and producers highlighting important stories. I hope that there can be more positive change in the future for future generations of boys and men that server their country for their mandatory military service as well as the female volunteers serving their country. I hope that they can all server well and come back better.

(I'm from the US and I know for a fact that our military uses weird(read as predatory) as hell tactics to get people to enlist with promises of paying for education etc. We are lacking in mental and physical health services for military personnel who need it after they are no longer active duty. As well as safe environments for female soldiers...period. All I can do is vote for policies that help them and have them in my thoughts. Cause our government chooses who and when they fight...yeah...lets just say being informed about all the effed up things America has had it's paws in...doesn't exactly make me want to wave my country's flag all proud like.)

I hope I remember to regularly check the calendar for this one's air date. I feel like it should be releasing soon as they've both just come off well received projects. Fingers crossed for end of February/early March.

Depending on the genera of show, posters can look vastly different. Honestly seems about normal for a melo-thriller.

A few killed projects and some poorly received ones might have stalled out his on screen roles. He's currently acting as a music/performing mentor with Jerry, Jackson, and Ten. The multilingual chaotic combo I didn't know I needed.
Covid years messed with a lot of people's careers in weird ways I've noticed. Depending on the project they were working on before lockdown kind of determined the next few years. Also personal life wise, I'm not sure unless he shares it on social, but he's really active in his family life so he might have honestly just been focusing on that after being in the US/overseas for a few years.

I think this will be the first Thai drama I've watched in like 10ish years. I didn't even realize it had been that long. So far so good. It's nice to be able to actually see the show....480p was all that was available the last time I attempted to watch a Thai drama. Yes, I fully realize I am late to the Thai drama party. My algorithm wasn't algorithm-ing until recently apparently.

Kang Full seems to be developing multiple projects for Disney+ platform so more "same universe" than multi season.

Disney+ show so 8 ep might be correct.

If anyone wants a good laugh and recap of the show....Stephanie Soo(Miss Mango Butt) is doing a multi-video re-telling/breakdown of the whole drama. The way she tells stories is just so entertaining to me, that even though I've watched the drama I still enjoyed her describing everything that happened to her husband/audience. Her enthusiasm for the show really makes it that much better. So if you are on the fence about the show or you maybe dropped it for one reason or another but still want to know what happened...highly recommend Stephanie's videos on Marry My Husband.

the secretary of YuRa got literal flowers from Ji Won's father, sooooo 2. 😘

I'm hoping that you are leaving this comment BEFORE finishing the scene and not AFTER, because it is very much explained in the episode why she does this.

Small little part, but I loved that Yu Ra's secretary kind of got a nod from Ji Won's father at the end. The cherry/plum(can't remember which ones represent him) blossoms that circle him as he avoids a grim fate. Because he chose a different path for himself.
That's really the message of the whole show. No matter what decisions you make you can always change for the better if you want to. It wont always be easy, because sometimes the RIGHT thing is the hardest thing to do. Also karma's a bitch, so.....

Honestly, first time it's actually looked like a chaebol's wedding in a drama, for me.

Perfectly put.

youve got to be kidding...MORE amnesia?
I have so many things to say but I think they are best kept to the real world info dump report i give my friend.

ive paused after episode 10 as there were some plot points that were...not my cuppa. & a major one that only works because it is a drama(& they still have 6eps to air) and not because it makes any logical sense. aka if this was any other format or length certain parts should have been left on the cutting room floor/writers room waste basket.
