I read your comments before watching (so I was on the "look out" for 🐍) and I am currently on EP09 where he went on date with Chung Ook.
I get that he misunderstood the task but did he have to repeat it so many times? How much of an 🍑 one has to be to basically repeat over and over: it was a waist of my time? Chung Ook was really mature about it all (I liked how he basically told him off when he said that Hyeong Jin could have phrased it differently... and 🐍 kept going the same route! 🤯). Dude, not everybody is interested in you and Chung Ook might have wanted to go with someone else as well 🤦‍♀️
And I didn't like how 🐍 was telling it to SH and JS - he was making fun because Chung Ook too him to his house. Really? The date was planed in advance, so he had little control over whom he took there. It could have been anybody else from the group 🤦‍♀️

I have some books that seem to have more bookmarks than pages - they look like hedgehogs 🤣
I doubt it will be Seven Seas as they do CH only, I think.
As for paper back I am surprised that Amazon is not offering paperbacks - I bought Patrick Rangsimant books (My Ride, I Love you - which already had series and I love/kill you - which is upcoming series) and they all have on the last page that they were printed in Amazon Fulfillment, so why not Sammon's?
If (and we are talking about fan translation) I like book or it has too many chapters for me not to mess up where I ended or I want to bookmark it to hell 😉 I copy it to Word, then I format it (like if there are arcs then they get Heading1 style and chapters get Heading2 style), make it to PDF (for formatting consistency if I have to use different devices for later changes) and EPUB/Mobi (so I can actually read and book mark it).

I would also love paperbacks of her books (I could bookmark them to hell 😂) but have to "settle" with what is offered on Meb (you can only read them trough thier app and their formatting is so bad: either PDF which is not ideal for reading or EPUB witch has some weird spacing, like 2 words being squished together, example: "was gatheringpatients' documents") or Amazon 😔

Have you read the novel (Spare me Your Mercy)? It seems to me like her mains are basically the same as in Manner of Death (I mean novel versions) - doc is crazy in love with cold and aloof police officer (I know that in MoD it was cold doctor Vs. enamoured teacher) and there is criminal "something" that might tear them apart (their relationship or their lives).

If I recall correctly there was a lot of discussion how Triage was done super realistically when it came to medical side (no wonder since Sammon is a doctor). Manner of Death didn't have as much of a medical setting - in Triage most of the series happen in hospital, so perhaps you might give it a try to asses accuracy?

It's not based on book - it's original script by Sammon.

Her other book (Spere me your Mercy/Euthanasia) already has it's own MDL page and is in the works, I think. If I recall correctly it's about doctor that works in the same place as Bun in Manner of Death but he comes there after Bun leaves. He falls crazy in love with local police officer (I don't remember his rank).
Transplant (continuation of Manner of Death as has the same main characters) also has MDL page but apparently Sammon realy wants MaxTul to reprise their roles and since Tul is no longer acting, it's on hold.
The only other book that doesn't seem to be in the works is Diagnosis (if I recall correctly main characters are Ton and Thana).

You didn't like any of the below?
Manner of Death,
Triage,
Dear Doctor I am coming for Soul,
My Tooth your Love (mid for me),
Sky in Your Heart (not very medical but Sky was doctor).

I remember reading that 2ML there - who got BL storyline - didn't end up well (I think he died in the end), so let's hope they won't go the same route...

I wouldn't say "of course", see: Bite Me.

I actually like her novels (I wish they were in paper format and not MEB as both PDF and EPUB are not working well with their reader 😒).
The only issues I see with them are: MC (Bun) or ML (police officer from Euthanasia/Spare Me Your Mercy) simply has to be cold/unfeeling and their love interest is kind of obsessed with them (the doc was basically crazy about him since he saw the police officer). The other issue is with 2nd couple in Manner of Death: they simply don't have enough "screen time" for me (here the thug is also a bit cold but then gets super possessive, including violence) and I would love to see their life in Bangkok (Sarawat is studying medicine, so it should still be on theme).

I was convinced it's going to end this way 🤯

Should I suffer and watch it till end or just leave it at EP09? 🤔
I am so disappointed in OffGun - after Not Me I hoped for some quality series for them. Now there is Trainee comming and it seems to be more or less the same as Cooking Crush 😒

I agree - it was totally different.
MPWM gave like Stockholm Syndrome vibes but this was quite cute.
The work culture is 🤯 How can people exist (outside the work)? No wonder people don't have families...

Do you know the title of that CH+TH BL?

Naga magic is green. When Tharn was falling it was Naga magic that saved him. Then Tharn disappeared in golden light - same as Phaya - isn't that colour of Garuda magic? So I think it was big bro Garuda, who transferred them both into the cave as Phaya apparently lost his magic (interesting that Tharn's soul would still hold magic, his reincarnation also had some magic of visions/sight but Phaya had nothing).

IDF 😱 - the 1st time I saw it I was like: what are they doing in Thailand?! Running training program o.O? Then I was able to read what it actually means and uff! Then again I would feel "weird" every time I saw it till the end of the series...

I think that big snake Naga could get together next season with... big bro Garuda 🤭 Wouldn't that be a twist - like their love was what actually started Naga/Garuda war? So once he saw that there were Tharn and Phaya who - even trough there were obstacles in their way - decided to be together he got super jealous and hence S1.

I think I remember that at one point FL1 was crying/being sad and ML1 was trying to cheer her up and told her something like she is too nice and doesn't want to hurt people that is why she is crying about fate of ML2 and FL2.
So what I meant is that she is portrayed as such a virtue and kind person but in truth she is no angel - as you said she wants to dump her bad fate to others. They don't show the depth of her hatred/rage/hurt for FL2 and ML2 that any person in her situation would feel - it's to subdued for me (and because of that I thought of her being a bit fake). The only time she actually showed it was right before her death and right after rebirth.

Thank you for your kind words 😀
Do you happen to know if there is English translation of the novel? And if so do you have link to it?

1. FL1 character is not this fake Mary Sue - she is legitimately angry at FL2 and ML2 and wants the revenge (in the series she is being portrayed as not really wanting to harm anybody but ups).
ML1 is even bigger simp than in the series.
2. FL2 is simply deranged from the get go.
3. Highschool friends got convinced by FL2 with just situation with ML3.
4. People were mentioning how FL1 was looking like while meeting parents but I think that the bigger difference was with highschool friends during the wedding - they were dressed as "party animals" (although I would never go to club in sweats - even designer ones) and looked super trashy 🤭
5. Mr. Lee - I doubt chairman even knew of his existence, he was in different department, had totally different personality and storyline.
6. Mrs. Yang - younger child (1 year old). The order of events was different - first was the husband's affair (with vanity being the "culprit" instead of glas table) and then the cancer (no intervention from Mr. Yu or Mr. Lee). There was no issue with any evidence for the divorce, nor was police in their apartment. Her romantic storyline starts around chapter 48-49, ten 61. Her divorce storyline actually picks up on chapter 49 (see No. 22).
7. Eunho (ML3) is not a chef - he owns café. He never took FL1 on a date (except 1 meeting after reunion). His romantic storyline starts a bit in chapter 48, we get a bit more in chapter 57 (see No. 29) and then 63 (see No. 32).
8. Mother-in-law was as bad but her ending was different - she got a stroke after semi-publicly learning about her son's infertility. FL2 was there with her at the time and just left her (father-in-law was out fishing so he found his wife next day). FL2 actually injected air to her body to kill her because she was afraid that MIL might get better and tell others about what happened.
9. ML2 kind of killed himself. He wanted to kill FL2 (he was in debt and bought insurance on FL2 - he didn't have any), so he rigged breaks in car but due to info about his mother's death he forgot about it and took the car to get to the hospital and crashed (there was lighter in the floor of the car, so he burned to death).
10. Father-in-law was also quite mean and considered his son's wife to be servant to the son and him (when his wife was in hospital).
11. FL2 was arrested at her husband's and MILs funeral but she escaped. She bamboozled again Mr. Kim and decided to use his car for getaway but then she saw FL1 and ML1. She decided to kill FL1 but ML1 saved her and landed in hospital instead. FL2 got life in prison after that.
12. ML1 told FL1 quite early that FL3 is his sister but there was no BTS song that made them figure out that they both travelled in time. Instead while ML1 was in hospital (see point 11), FL1 went to his apartment and found calendar with marked her wedding date + death (he actually found her dead and held funeral for her) and a letter where he explains their history from his POV (including that he was about to resign because he had his own security company and how he drowned himself).
13. The meeting between FL1 and ML1 in Uni was while she was taking care of kitten. She wanted to buy some food for it, so asked ML1 to stay and look after kitten for a while. He didn't have time but he got some food, so he gave it to her. FL1 never looked up, so she didn't know how he looked like.
14. For big part of the show it looked like it was a commercial for Autentique. Here the earrings were exactly the same for FL1 and FL2 - it just seemed like they suited FL2 more before FL1 transformation. No necklace storyline.
15. No company scavenger hunt (or anything of that sort).
16. The big idea was not FL1 but Mrs. Yang's. She was also not even a bit backstabbing.
17. The idea that tanked Mr. Kim was FL3's + there was no airplane scandal for Mr. Kim's backer (nor was he face of the product).
18. No cooking class from FL2 + no meeting of MIL before restaurant (and it wasn't Eunho's + no ML1 in the vicinity).
19. ML1 didn't help with ML2 proposal to FL1. The whole proposal looked totally different in the webtoon (not clear if it was the same before rebirth).
20. FL1 decided to make ML2 cheat on FL2, so that she gets FL1 fate instead Mrs. Yang, so she asked girl to pretend flirt with ML2 via texts/SMS. FL2 finds the texts and confronts "affair partner", so now "AF" became co-conspirator with FL2 and FL2 tells her almost everything she does. "AF" suggests for FL2 and ML2 to get tested to find the reason for them not having babies and since ML2 is treating FL2 like a trash he refused to go get results. FL2 uses the results to humiliate MIL and the "accidentally" leaves them in the car, so that FIL finds them.
21. No ex-fiancée storyline.
22. Mr. Yang's husband wants to squeeze out money from her, so he wants to get/keep parental rights. He decided to kidnap his own daughter with help of his AF (she doesn't want the child - just the money) but AF gets caught immediately by FL1 and FL3 (she is quite vicious to AF), husband gets his comeuppance from his FIL. They all land at police station where they are being told it's just a family squabble and to let it go 🙄 ML1 and Mr. Lee appear with a lawyer - Mr. Lee (they are brothers). They add some additional evidence and finally kidnaping sticks.
23. Mrs. Yang is apparently older than Mr. Lee by 6 years. They never had any storage talks nor past where he was kind of rude to her.
24. Mrs. Yang - due to her great work - gets constant promotions. FL1 turned down promotion because she felt like she hasn't earned it, so that made grandfather/chairman instantly impressed (it was their 1st interaction).
25. FL2 called from the prison to inform FL1's mother that FL1 is marrying rich (to mess with her, of course).
26. FL1 mother visits her at work. ML1 figures out that she basically wants to repeat history (she stole her husband's and FL1's money when she left to finance her BF's business) and offers to pay her off to leave FL1 life. However the mother accidentally called FL1, so she heard the whole conversation. FL1 confronts her mother and when things escalated to violence step-mother of ML1 shows up and "handles" FL1's mother. Only after that we learn that FL3 is step-sister of ML1.
27. FL1 visits FL2 in prison and we get more details about their parents affair + FL1 cuts ties with FL2.
28. ML1 proposes to FL1 in Busan, on her B-day after giving her properties (as incentive to say yes? 🤔).
29. Eunho decided to go to Switzerland to truly get over FL1. FL3 meets his at the airport before he leaves and confesses. Eunho said that he will make dessert just for her and to wait for him (but if she finds someone better before, to go be with that guy). He comes back on FL1 wedding day with suitcase full of presents for FL3.
30. FL1 and ML1 get married in chapter 58 (she is already pregnant with twins).
31. From chapter 59 we have "spin-off": FL1 pregnancy, delivery and rising the twins.
32. FL3 has to travel to Indonesia,so she wants to tie the knot with Eunho and fast, so she proposed to him at his café and thought he rejected her. FL3 tries again: this time she arranged for them to travel and "accidentally" spend the night thereshe wants to pop the question but Eunho kisses her and then helicopter appears with ML1 + grandfather started to call her 🤦‍♀️ and they decided to escape. So it of course turned out to be an elaborate proposal by Eunho with help of ML1, FL1. Grandfather was against FL3 marriage but not because of Eunho but just in general.
33. FL1 eventually leave the company to start something new.
34. Chapter 67 is from the cat's POV (he also went through rebirth).

I decided to read webtoon and there are significant differences. Spoilers for the webtoon ⬇️

I don't think they do it like that in Thai Rom-Coms (not sure about Larkoms, as I only saw Rivarly due to its side BL couple).
JP does wild things in their dramas - you never know if you get super conservative (like they act as if hand holding = graphic porn) or straight up graphic porn 🤭
