I have to make the observation that some viewers are upset about the age difference between Noey and Thi or the actors, but have seen much less concern for the amount of violence Noey/Tar engages in. Noey has been beaten in the face and head by adults nearly every episode but we are more angry over two actors playing characters who so far haven’t had any sexual contact. Why is violence more acceptable?
I personally feel like you’re exaggerating things , because 15 years old is the constant age in Thailand and…
Things can be tricky in some countries because of the age of majority vs adulthood. It’s problematic so Japan lowered age of majority to 18 last year. From what I understand age of consent for sexual stuff is 15 with parental consent. This is probably why we won’t see kissing and the Noey character does most of the touching or forces Thi to touch like on the motorcycle. Thai citizens can vote at 18 but males do not go to the draft lottery until they turn 21.
After reading this board I decided to watch episodes 11 and 12 back to back this week. That way I can just get my heart broken once if this ends like MODC (no HEA) and I have to hold a grudge for a few years. I’ve been traveling, so I have only been watching this show, between us and what’s on GMM. I’ll be in Thailand when the final episode airs, so I’ll be able to hear a collective scream to know that I need to say prayers for Director Champ or will hear a collective outpouring of love.
I see things differently. I think Phayu is bullying Noey because Noey is hilarious when he gets jealous over nothing. Phayu is just using Thi as a means for comic relief. Phayu doesn’t even know Thi nor does he seem to pursue him outside of when he’s with Noey. I’m laughing along with Phayu😏
It's me again haha! Just wanted to share a little info on phayu's character. P'Champ jokingly said Phayu is like…
I think that Phayu just likes to bully Noey. Some younger males like to soft bully males younger than them. I don’t know if Phayu is even attracted to Thi. I think he likes pulling Noey’s strings, getting him to react. Haha
Just wanted to make something clear. The places near temple areas are kinda shady sometimes because all kinds…
Plus street business is kept in the streets. People are not going to just go crying to the police if nobody got seriously hurt or killed. The mom and sister wouldn’t have been touched had they not tried to get involved. The guys just pushed them away, they didn’t beat up on them or Thi. The issue was between them in Noey. These guys are in a gang. They are not BFFs with the cops. You would be considered weak if you went to the police. I don’t think people understand how street business works sometimes. You have a point about the cops. I saw the plastic bag video that happened in the police station.
I screamed what the F is this so many times watching this episode because what was that? I think something like…
Most people on forums are not from the streets and do not understand this is street business. Thi is going to try to protect the mom and sister to the extent can but Thi is not from the streets either. The mom and sister have had more exposure to the streets than Thi has. Noey did not show up to the fight so as stupid as it is they don’t care if it’s 6on one. Thi didn’t jump in but he didn’t call the cops either. This is the life he doesn’t want for Noey.
Does anyone know what the headbands translate to? If there was a subtitle I missed it.
Also to provide context, Pam and Oh do not have a problem with stigma and they do not hold hands or are shown doing PDA. Pam rests her knee on Oh’s that’s how we know she forgave him and is in a mutual relationship with Oh. For this community the neighborhood) it seems that Thi and Noey are not moving too slowly with their relationship.
The most refreshing thing about this series is how simple the story is and even the lives of the characters. The…
I think in real life, people take it slower, get to know each other, watch from afar before entering a relationship. Noey wants to court, not hook up. I also like seeing leads who are not heirs to a fortune and not driving luxury cars.
