I get why people are upset that Thyme didn't face more severe consequences in this episode but folks, it's a Hana…
Like Thyme said, it was going to change his life forever if I became public. That would've also changed the whole trajectory of the series. And like you said, at least they called him out this far.
U don't know Ahn Hyo Seop... how is that even possible lmao
Lol I just looked at his page and I do know him. Guess I didn't recognize him since I saw him in Lovers of the Red Sky and he's dressed all historically.
Started this show randomly. First K-drama I've watched in long time without knowing at least one of leads. Overall, I liked the fluffy vibe and I'm glad there's a secondary couple instead of making both men fall for the FL.
I think F4 Thailand is very closely following Chinese Meteor Garden
Disagree. F4 Thailand seems to take the most influence from the Japanese version. I love the Chinese version, but it's the most different from every version due to its tone.
anyone els think that this is the worest version of them all !!! this version is close to the chineas one but…
Thai version isn't like the Chinese one at all. Totally different vibes. It's more like a grittier version of the Japanese drama. I'm enjoying the Thai interpretation more, but you're entitled to your opinions.
Well, what's going to happen in the next ep happens in every version. But the consequences thing is not given…
*In the original, Junpei (Talay) wants revenge on Tsukasa (Thyme) for almost killing his friend. Manga often points out how animalistic and violent Tsukasa was during middle school. *Meteor Garden and MG2018 are basically the same as the original. Korean version too, but here they change it to Junpei wanting revenge for his brother whom we see in the first ep. *Japanese version deviates the most. They change it to Sakurako (Hana) kidnapping Tsukushi (Gorya) instead. Strangely, in the sequel, Junpei is introduced and kidnaps Tsukushi but Tsukasa's sister saves her this time. *Anyway, my main point that none of this really has anything to do with the red card. Thai version has decided to focus in on it instead of ignoring it like the original and other versions. And there's even an "anti-F4" group even of just some random guys who hate Tsukasa/Jun-pyo/Si for beating them up.
Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think we ever got to see the consequences of gun pyo and ming zi actions…
Well, what's going to happen in the next ep happens in every version. But the consequences thing is not given as much emphasis. This version has chosen to focus on the red card and it's effects on others. I'll put the rest under a spoiler.
I don't really think the author was that influenced by that poll tbh. In an interview, she described Tsukasa's…
Yes I agree that she intended on making Rui the main love interest at first. This is obvious by volumes 1-2 and also why everyone cries about SLS. But by volumes 3-4, you can tell she's leaning towards Tsukasa.
I've been thinking about this version a lot lately because I'm currently watching the Thai version. Honestly, besides being adapted from the same source material, the two versions seem so different. MG is slow-paced while Thai is fast. MG glosses over all the bullying (booo Chinese censors) while Thai dials it up to eleven. MG has more of a light, fluffy vibe most of the time while Thai focuses heavily on the angst. They have two things in common though: I love both casts and the OSTs are both great.
Referring to Fea's post below informing us about the manga writer changed the plot because of the readers' poll:Whoa,…
I don't really think the author was that influenced by that poll tbh. In an interview, she described Tsukasa's character overpowering when she was writing. I think that was the real reason she went in that direction. Also the very last poll shows Rui in first place. So the readers were very flip-floppy.
Enjoyed the first two eps. I love all of the characters so far. I'm looking forward to seeing Namtan too. Imo I didn't perceive anything transphobic, but I'm also not an expert on it or anything lol. Basically, I would advise to not take the show too seriously. It's mostly a crazy comedy. Look at Pingpong's double personality character for instance lol.
I'm going to on hold watching this, tell me guys if there is a plethora of transphobic remarks and jokes in this…
There was a couple of remarks in the first ep, but with context I didn't think it was hateful. You should watch the first half of the first ep to see if it bothers you.
Probably not for a while. They haven't started filming yet and Fah is currently in America to finish up college.
I’m not sure about budget… I suppose a project like this might have a hard time getting sponsors.🤔
Also, I just saw on ‘P.S. I Hate You’ page, another project of Fah’s, that pre-production is starting in April. That’s around the time I think Fah said she was returning. So I think ‘The Warp Effect’ will come out later in the year.

Anyway, Off doesn’t have any upcoming BLs.
