BLs overall do target straight women - that’s their bread and butter 😉
So what’s different about this one? Really curious, thank you 😊

I honestly don’t understand what would be so different for either Lian or Kuea when they get married. They’ve been living together, having sex and enjoying each other’s company for a year now.
Legally, they can’t get married in Thailand (unless this series takes place in another universe). So I would think they’d have a lovely ceremony and a party for friends and family.
So, what’s the problem? Have a ceremony and carry on just like you’ve been doing. If Kuea wants to perform he can do it whether they get married or not. 🤷‍♀️
I don’t think Lian would make him stay home after the ceremony, right? What am I missing here? 🤔

Yes it was good 😊 and I agree - they could have done more, given the actors are mature and professional enough to give us a believable emotion.
Also, I like Strongberry very much. Long Time No See in particular, speaking of depicting physical attraction between the leads. This company always casts actors who can show genuine emotion towards their partners, even if it’s not NC, like Choco Milk Shake which I loved.

I think Semantic Error was also good in that respect. But dead fish kisses seem to be a staple of Kdramas overall - hetero or BL. I don’t know if that’s a cultural thing or just the way they do movies. They can be eye-fucking each other for 15 episodes, then at the end of the 16th episode break into a “spectacular” dead fish kiss 🤦‍♀️
I’m not saying they should shove their tongues down each other’s throats, but at least make it believable that you maybe like your partner 🤷‍♀️😉

Thank you 😊 I like this saying, too, and it does help in real life.
I agree - Nueng needs some serious reflection and character growth. Given he’s a teenager, it shouldn’t be super hard for the writers to accomplish this. Hopefully, Palm will also get his character out of that perpetual attempt at submission and we’ll see a strong, smart man that he is.

Yep, I love it when they bring in mature, experienced actors to support the story. They effortlessly give “the look” and we immediately understand the message! 🤩

I actually liked the way they showed that kiss between Ben and Nueng. It made perfect sense to be awkward:
1. None of them is overly experienced in intimacy to start with.
2. Ben likes Nueng but doesn’t want to scare him with shoving his tongue down Nueng’s throat (good boy).
3. Nueng is experimenting with Ben to see if he can feel anything from that kiss. He thinks that Palm is getting into a relationship with Maggie (thanks to her social media diarrhea). So in his mind he doesn’t stand a chance with Palm. Meanwhile, Ben is being nice to him and Nueng feels flattered and curious. Nothing wrong with that.

Now, Nueng’s behavior when drunk would be a huge red flag to me even if I saw him as just a friend. We have a saying “What sober one thinks, the drunk one says”. So when Nueng lost his filter his shitty attitude came out. I really don’t care for an explanation of “he was jealous and wanted to hurt Palm”. It would work for me if he WASN’T drunk 🤷‍♀️ but not when he was seriously wasted. Oh well, we’ll see…

What kind of “old people dance party” has a bar and drunk young thugs in it and the owner is nowhere to be found? I see what kind of “many businesses” Maggie’s dad owns… 🤦‍♀️

I don’t think he’s playing a straight character. He’s playing a gay character pretending to be straight - there’s a difference in portraying those characters.
We do get signs of him being gay from Vee’s gaydar in Mum’s world, and from his own mother in his world giving him “the look” when his dad carries on about the right girlfriend.

Somehow, I think even if Dew honestly told Mint that he wants to break up when she questioned him - the outcome would be the same. That girl is obsessed and doesn’t take NO for an answer as we’ve seen on many occasions. I think she’d be there with that gun either way.
Also, if someone tells you they have no expectations from a relationship with you as long as you give it a try - run as fast as you can. They’re lying through their teeth. If they didn’t have any expectations they wouldn’t have offered to have a relationship in the first place! That’s my firm opinion.

Absolutely! Can’t wait for the last episode! 🥰

Thank you so much for this unique series! To me, it’s so refreshing for more than one reason. It’s not a “business as usual” BL.
I’m so grateful for total absence of tropes and stupid girls who don’t understand rejection. I’m actually grateful for a psychopath girl instead 😉 I think she did great - she gave me goosebumps 🤩
I love the presence of a unique plot, great actors, beautiful visual effects and meaningful messages. To me, it’s a long awaited mix of sci-fi, political criticism and BL. I would love to have season 2 as a post-apocalypse series.
I was very happy to see Art and Michael again, and in my opinion, the whole cast did a great job!
Sis Mam was such a warm and funny character, with her own flaws, multidimensional for me. Uncle Som and his recount of the bunker structure and his decision to leave made perfect sense to me.
Again, thank you and your team so much! Happy New Year and best wishes to everyone! 🥰

Works for me! 😊

It looks like on Viki they combined two episodes into one. So the total number of episodes there is 10.

I think he’s very much into fantasy and sci-fi so he’s mostly having fun with his adventure and is trying to survive without freaking out. More power to him! 👍🤩

I don’t think he’s been a bully all his life, though. If his family wasn’t affected with those businesses deals he might never even think about bullying someone. So he doesn’t have the physique of a stereotypical bully, and it’s ok as I think they went for a “bully of one cause”.
I don’t excuse him. I just think that it made sense to cast a smaller-framed, cute actor for this part as it shows that anyone can fly off the handle under certain conditions. Physique doesn’t matter. It’s the character traits that might never surface otherwise.

Exactly what I thought! Moreover, Nueng could just hint to the principal that his mom was thinking about another donation to the school, but the way things are she’s changing her mind. The administration would be on fire to protect him immediately!
Also, honestly, in mom’s place, I would sell the company and use that money to live comfortably myself, and share with my son so that he can do whatever he wants. Like, learn music, become a professional musician or whatever. I’m more than sure that money would cover everything. 🤷‍♀️

I hope they will happy, too! I know, they milk Fluke for tears like there’s no tomorrow! I can’t wait for the series where Fluke plays an angel. He’s so playful there, giggling and cheerful! I loved the trailer. 🥰

But on the picture would be Dew from Mum’s world, who has no idea about Mum. So he couldn’t help the investigation much. This Dew probably has the same people surrounding him, but he seems to be more relaxed so those people might be not as bad as the ones from Dew’s world. We’ll see :)

Yep, she’s a total and complete embarrassment of a female character - thank you, writers, so very much 🙄
Just please go work abroad or whatever - ffs, remove yourself from the situation! 🤦‍♀️
