As expected from rookie actors, the acting isn't very good but they make up for it with surprisingly good chemistry. Besides that, it's very cute and full of cliches, but the latter is a given for Thai BLs, gmmtv produced, on top of that. Personally, I don't mind those cliches, but some definitely will. If you enjoyed Cooking Crush like me - give this one a try and I'm sure you'll like it!

I love Zee and Nunew, the trailer visually looks great, and the plot is quite original... but Nunew's acting still isn't the greatest. I don't know if it's intended but he seems to be undermining the seriousness I think they're wanting to achieve and I doubt they want to make him a comedic relief character. Nunew currently seems incapable of portraying this seriousness, as he was in Cutie Pie, but hey, that's just the pilot episode - maybe it's better in the series itself. I'll definitely be watching but as a wise person once said - "Sometimes it's wise to keep our expectations low. That way we're never disappointed."

There is a lot of far better KBLs out there. It's not bad, but it relies on eye candy too much, at least in my opinion. The story seems decent so far, nothing groundbreaking, however acting is subpar. Also, if we don't get at least one proper kiss, not the angled, blurry bullshit, which I think is VERY likely, it will inevitably fall into the pit of forgettable KBLs.

The OST may not be out yet but if anyone else is in love with the music from the scene of Myung Ha walking in the water - it's a piece by my countryman Piotr Hummel called 'Forlorn'! Give it a listen - it's definitely on Apple Music, don't know about Spotify though.

EXACTLY! I was just rewatching the scene with Myung Ha walking in the water and the music there just tears my heart open in the best way possible. EDIT: I actually found it! It's a piece by my countryman Piotr Hummel called 'Forlorn'!

I thought we were going to have high five bros v2 💀 thank God for the last scene

One thing I was thinking about after the last scene is whether the world they're in was the real one - and then I realized, to them it definitely is - and that's all that matters. And I think that's a beautiful way to end such a great show.

Sorry to burst your bubble - Myung Ha literally said word for word: "I died that day"

From what I understand, this world they were in wasn't really a game - the game aspects of buffing, quests, messages, etc were sunbae's(who is most likely the grim reaper or sth of that sort) way of directing Myung Ha in the direction of finding his - lost in the real world - happiness. It;s essentially Myung Ha's second chance at life. The messages were meant to provide him guidance, or at least that's what I took it for.

Someone answered it below and it made sense to me - it was Myung Ha's ex from the "real" world so she actually knew him

Does the fact it was in the book make it any less pointless? It just makes it pointless in two places lmao

Like boy, you broke up with someone because they chose YOU and YOUR well-being over a lifechanging opportunity, the fuck?

Hello and welcome to Pointless Breakups in BL Part 143 🙃

That was my favorite episode so far - yes, the editing is still off, and writing, in general could be better, but I really liked it anyway. OffGun were finally allowed to show that they CAN kiss well, Firefy and Dynamite are developing nicely, and the switches from playful to serious were quite sudden, but well executed anyway. Can't wait for next episodes 😁

It's not bad... yet. But with 8 episodes left to go it is bound to get draggy and boring. Although finally getting to see Barcode next episode will be some sort of compensation 😅

This is partly my love for OffGun speaking, but I am really enjoying it so far. I agree it might not be the most interesting of plots but the acting and chemistry of both OffGun and Neo and Aungpao really make it fun to watch. I just watch it in bed at 10 PM giggling my ass off and go to sleep with a big smile on my face. It's such a nice break from the other, more serious BLs I'm currently watching. 😊

It's been a while since I last cried like this 😭 that was so beautiful

I'll be honest, it's actually quite funny for me 😅, but that might just be because I find most horrors funny lol

I quite liked the first episode but the second one felt dragged out. I have absolutely no idea how they're planning to make it 12 episodes long - this is literally a stereotypical 'friends in a cabin of a rich kid in the middle of nowhere getting chased by a killer with paranormal undertones' horror movie plot which could be wrapped up in two hours, tops. The only original thing about it is the romance part, surprisingly, however I don't think it's enough to redeem it. I'll keep watching for the eye candy and potential steamy scenes but I expect the story to only get more boring from now. I will also make a bold prediction/observation - Tan is hella sus for me😳 and White seems TOO innocent 😉

I think this show is a great example of how a bad script can also affect the chemistry and acting of main leads. The silly faces Yim has to pull in every scene, the repetitive and cliche dialogues said in the most over-the-top way, or useless slowed down stares really make the acting seem subpar at best while we all know both Tutor and Yim CAN act and DO have chemistry. The incompetence of screenwriters, directors, etc, really sabotaged any attempts of saving the series undertaken by the main leads. I don't really mind slapstick comedy but this way too much for me. I love TutorYim and I will keep supporting them, but with a series like that being their first lead roles, I'm scared another projects are in jeopardy. I hope I'm wrong and I get to see a well written series for my cuties 🥰
