Not a Robot

I want to offer my point of view, and I'm a person who has low tolerance for violence. Not just in BL, but fiction in general, we have characters who are not perfect, but it's up to the author to redeem them. Some viewers become escalated during the violent scenes, and the comedic moments break the tension, and adds a touch of human element, so that we stay grounded.

I think that both Vegas and Pete have PTSD, and being males in Asia, they don't get to show it or talk about it. We saw Pete kick the s#it out of someone over a debt, but what his dad did to him is still haunting him. Vegas never fully de-escalates, because he keeps getting abused before he has time.

Not everyone hated TharnType, in fact, it was very popular. MDL can be a little Tumblresque at times, but in reality, TT was super popular, especially in Thailand. Before COVID put a stop to it, Mew and Gulf were being hired everywhere to promote things. Mame is also coming out with another series from the LBC universe.

I would be really hurt if my child or good friend betrayed me. I would always love my child and would be willing to forgive in time, but I would also need to let them have their adult consequences to their adult decisions. If Tupe cheated with a rando down the block, I probably would not feel so strongly. I have a soft spot for Rich only because he made a commitment to his wife, and stuck to it. I know that gay men had beards for centuries, but at least he stuck by his decision. I know Rich isn't a saint, and Tupe is an employee, but he must have felt like he was 18 again, and this time he gets a do over with a man. Now, everyone gets an HEA at least.

P.S. You won't get on my bad side. My BFF and I debate all the time about topics, but we just stick to the topic do not get personal, and are still BFFs.

Thank you!

I did not think of this angle. This series is like a 1500 piece puzzle. Thanks for sharing.

Asking for a friend, are the uncut versions significantly different where the plot is affected?

We're waiting for the DNA results. In the meantime, there's a funeral. Not joking, from the novel.

Finding out that Kim is also a true crime stan is one of the best BL moments for me. I loved true crime before it was popular, so the bulletin board scene is one of my favorites.

I like this show too. It's just a simple comedy, where opposites attract. I really like Earth's look in this series.

Episode zero is at the resort and they fall in love. It's a prologue. Watch at your own risk. People who watched Ep 0 seem to really dislike the series.

Had a Calvin Kleing sighting on KinnPorsche too while I was catching up on the episodes. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, now I cannot, not notice it!

I haven't been on this board since before this series aired, because I didn't want any spoilers. I just caught up on the episodes. It's refreshing to see that this board is part Chippendale's (don't knowif they still exist), part intellectual, and so open to diverse thoughts and opinions. It feels like the old days of the internet. Great job KP viewers!

Me, only because I feel they wouldn't have wasted money filming the prologue. If they don't get back together then the prologue was meaningless click bait and I would feel bad for the fans who watched it.

So far, use the prologue as the HEA and maybe wait and see. I didn't watch Ep 0, so I'm committed to the hot mess version.

I'm not into BDSM in manga, erotica, fan fiction etc., so this show will have to be great for me to overcome my aversion to watching verbal degradation, restraints and whipping. Judging from the comments, this isn't going to do it. Anne Rice couldn't do it with her Sleeping Beauty series either, so at least they have good company.

I think they will get together in the end. Sorry that my wording was vague.

They could never get away with an ere*tion, so they should have kept their bottoms on, or put him in boxers. The way they were raging with passion, doing it in front of huge glass windows, after dark, with the light on, ripping buttons, the movements, and Daonuea isn't "ready" to go. The lead characters do not evoke empathy in me, so I can focus on the totally useless details. I don't blame the actors, this storyline is from the 2017-18 era so far. Hope they turn it around because I like Best.

To be honest, I think Daonuea and Nine will be end game, or they would not have invested in the special episode. I chose not to watch Ep 0 because the comments on this board were hating on episode 1 because it wasn't living up. I'm still not at the point where I was with I Promised You the Moon, where I wanted them to break up.

Tee keeps getting those mysterious calls, so maybe they are setting us up for him still being a snake. Praew being an actress gives her another chance to cheat too, or break up due to an overseas project, leaving true love to blossom. I hope they surprise me and prove me wrong.

Yes, episode 0 seems to be the backstory, which will prime viewers to root for them even though cheating is involved. Since I didn't watch it, I'm not attached to Nine and Daonuea. I actually think Nine is kind of a sociopath at this point. He ghosts Daonuea and gets back with his girlfriend. Sees Daonuea's photo on the website, decides to get involved, disguising his identity. Then he will not let Daonuea leave, then forcibly kisses him, even after being told to stop. I'm shocked the usual suspects on MDL aren't screaming their heads off about this.

That's part of the problem. I think that he agreed to give Tee another chance because Nine ghosted him, and he finally gave up and put Nine's photo away.

He agreed to start over again with Tee, but wanted to wait before having sex (the subs said before becoming lovers). It happened when they were in Daonueas room. I may be wrong, but I thought they agreed to give it another try.
