Filming update! Bright says they're about halfway done. It think they're making good progress, considering all the delays they've had due to covid. He also said F4 Thailand will be released around the end of this year, so maybe it won't be released in August after all. Source: https://twitter.com/psxbright/status/1407717149779525632
Hmm... I was pretty optimistic about this getting a second season after the manga finished. But now its been almost a year and a half since the manga ended and three years since the drama aired. Last year, so many dramas were delayed by covid and Hana was busy with her asadora. She and Sho did a commercial earlier this year, which made me really hopeful. I thought they would've announced the second season by now, but it feels unlikely that it will happen now :/ I still hope I'm wrong tho.
Very nicely put! I really liked your thoughts on character agency. I’m lucky since I’ve only suffered maybe two bouts of SLS (the one I remember distinctly is Reply 1994). But even then I wanted the FL to be with who she wanted. With most SLs, I’ve actually thought they were quite selfish like in A Love So Beautiful. I’m happy dramas are going away from the whole love triangle thing and there are more like Crash Landing on You, where the SL has his own love story.
I mean she did go to prison. But yea for the wrong reasons. Idk I guess as we saw as she went to prison, if affected…
Yeah, I thought that part was ridiculous too. I much would've rather seen Wee feel remorse for her actions, serve her time in prison, and have Kawin stay by her side. Then it would've made more sense for Nabi and every else forgive her. I just didn't feel any closure from the ending, which is frustrating.
That hastily put together "happy" ending was such a cop out. Just because Wee wasn't completely a bad person, so she doesn't have to pay for her crimes? The writers obviously didn't know what to do with her character at the end, so they put all the punishment on Chertchai (deservedly so tho that creep). Nabi and everyone else forgave Wee to quick. She killed two people and tried to kill another two!! Then they're like 'she's not completely terrible let's forgive her for Kawin's sake.' The ending makes no sense. How could you stretch a drama to 22 episodes, but give such little thought to the ending?
It just seems like an odd move for Disney I guess? Netflix, I get cause the platform has a ton of foreign content from lots of countries. It made sense that they would start making their own . But Disney? Whattt... I think they should've started acquiring foreign content first, before making this move.
Filming actually started in early 2021. In February, Bright said in an interview that it might be released around…
Trailer was shot in Nov 2020. Basically, it's just a "demo" for the Dec conference, where GMMTV presented their new shows for 2021. GMMTV does demo trailers for all of their shows as a basic look at what it's expected to be. An official trailer with footage from the actual show will be released later this year.
I wonder what this person wrote as a source that the approval staff approved the changes??
I've had this happen to me when I edit. Now I always put "Me, from watching the show" as the source and they'll accept it. Some things you can only prove with your own eyes lol
