I hope that some dear soul who knows how to edit or the network will make a BL cut when this series is done airing and post it. I only say this because the network that airs Love is Science? makes a Mark x Ou Wen cut and it's really enjoyable.
This series wasted the talent of the actors with weak storytelling. I'm not going to be so arrogant to say that I could have written the special episode, but I'm surprised that when the team met to discuss it in pre-production, nobody thought to say maybe the MLs should have the lovey-dovey time with the ex's story told in short flashbacks. It just seemed like this episode was developed to paint the ex as the savior of the ML's relationship. The ex and JYH had more love scenes and happy moments than JYH and SL during the series. I would be reluctant to watch another BL series from this same team.
I am now a Boat Tara fan. The way he plays Sun even makes me feel safe when I look in his eyes through the screen. I know that he does MF series, but I hope to see him in another BL in the future.
I'm with you, tho I don't like the drama between the girls either cause I don't see what their relation to the…
I think it will pick up once Satha and Nut start going out. I wish they would focus on that and drop all of the side drama. It would be a better show, but it looks sort of self-produced, so I can't be mad. I watch the girl drama only because it is somewhat interesting, but I skip the teachers because I'm not into that comedic style. I think they both could be cut and maybe develop the story of the two friends, Jedi. I belong to the Line group and they said it will be 12 episodes.
I loved this series. I've noticed that I'm really enjoying the low budget series that are coming out of Northern Thailand. I'm partly prejudiced because I've visited Northern Thailand and they are very proud of their culture and heritage. I think that's why these types of series really take my heart.
It was wonderful that a group of gay men and a trans woman saved the village. Although they ended up having the transwoman, Jidlid become comic relief to an extent (which I hate), they also showed her as smart and a good fighter.
Yes the intrusive product placements are annoying, but they need to raise capital and so I had to ignore it. Also, the actors cast in this series are from the provinces so they may not have the coaching resources available in Bangkok. I'm hoping to see them in more projects in the future.
Watch at. your own risk since there are some disturbing scenes, especially in the final few episodes.. The over acting, the men running around in hideous underwear (even though I enjoyed that they do not have gym bodies), the random musical numbers, everyone is in love triangles. LIke I said, My Boy is like Masterpiece Theatre in comparison.
I'm still here for you Nut and Satha! I like the drama between the girls, but skip the teachers. I'm waiting for Satha and Nut to tell each other how they feel, even though it's clear to the viewer. Even though this show is far from perfect, I still like it and will continue to watch it. I prefer the quirky nature of this series and the characters. There is so much going on that it's almost psychedelic.
I think that they should have deleted episode 6, made episode 7 the new episode 6, then made episode 8 the new episode 7, and in episode 8 the Pitch and Bank resolution episode along with Sky and Sun being more firmly established. I'm not trying to say I'm a professional, I'm just a viewer.
But he's not a toddlerrrrrrr he's a whole adult! Also, RIP Rubix Cube. Sun said that was his only childhood friend…
I was responding to people ripping Gun's acting. I thought that he did a good job acting like a toddler. A couple days ago, they posted a BTS showing two takes of the sofa scene and even Gun didn't want to do any more takes! Yes, RIP Rubik's Cube. Sky better make up for it.
I'm hoping that this is based on Joou to Shitateya since there are going to be Thai versions of Love Stage and Antique Bakery (which is not originally a BL).
Is this good???.....also any other recommendations for ongoing or recently released BLs......???
I think that it is very good, but to me, this is a series where you have to read between the lines. I think that with some of what is currently going on in Thailand, these characters may be somewhat identifiable to youth. I'm not going to get political since I don't know much and I'm not Thai.
There is an overabundance of product placement, to the point of being obnoxious, but it costs money to produce these shows so I just ignore them. There is skin whitening soap if that bothers you. Unfortunately colorism is everywhere.
I only watch the BL cuts. I think the network notices this because they made a cut of their relationship from the beginning to where they ran out of filmed episodes.
Wait! How did Satha get those green teas without spending 10 minutes at the coffee counter and having the 2 women…
LOL about the director's cut. He was at the campus branch. With no ladies, he could hear the whole conversation between Nut and the cutie pie who gave Nut milk in the bathroom (I'm not sure if that was intended, tea would have been funny too). I still love it though, even if I'm the only one.
I'm the lone ranger and liked Episode 6 because Nut and Satha finally spent time together! This show isn't deep and it's not trying to be philosophical. I finished Swap Test because I kept telling myself it was an homage to John Waters. This is Masterpiece Theatre compared to that.
One of the most difficult things to learn in helping professions is that the person has the right to not report.…
Even some those who say they have been through SA show very little compassion toward Bas, instead of understanding him like Kaprao. From what I've seen, most SA survivors are more like Kaprao. TBH, some of the bluster from self disclosed SA survivors is still unresolved trauma in my opinion. They may disagree, but that's what I think. Bas has very little outside support. His agency is a concentration camp, his family will not accept tears from a man. He has suicidal ideation, clear from Episode 1 of this season. He is in conflict, he wants a career, but if he commits suicide, it's all over. The ambivalence that people who have been victimized is well done here. For some people, reporting doesn't equate with peace. Daisy from documentary Audrey and Daisy committed suicide in 2020 even though she has been regarded by the SA community as a hero. The consequence of reporting is that now it will be public, especially in this case because it involves the entertainment industry. The fact that Bas is surviving today shows that he is strong, he just needs to know that he has a safety net before he will be able to jump. Sorry so long.
If you look at this character, he is already close to a mental breakdown. He has been isolated, starved and deprived of sleep. He has also been sexually abused. His living conditions are more in line with a concentration camp. Plus, there's the stigma of male sexual assault. The bullying that will come after he reports may be what pushes him to suicide since he is already having ideation. At least he has not committed suicide. If you haven't heard of the Amanda Todd case or watched the movie Audrie and Daisy, I would recommend them. You will see the possible consequences that comes with reporting. I cannot support Me2 if they do not support the rights of ALL victims. We can agree to disagree, but I just wanted to present a different point of view.
