Because of a couple of things (the way I see it). 1. Writers are too lazy to come up with a relationship dynamic…
Thank you for recommending! I haven’t watched those shows yet :) I agree My Ride was on a slower side, but their healthy dynamic is what totally made it for me. Also, I really liked uncles in both novel and series, and I loved Nadya in the novel. I was pissed that they had a girl in the series to play Nadya. Why??? In the novel it’s a bulky muscular guy who is very effeminate. His story was so cute - I would love to see it on screen. As for DBK, I don’t think Kao was intimidated at all 😉 I really don’t like that intimidation trope, but there I didn’t feel it. It was just Pete being moody as usual, and Kao is totally used to it and doesn’t care much 😊

Oh yes, if Porsche’s childish behavior could be like that for the sake of humor or whatever, the bodyguards were totally inspired by Mean Girls or something. Yeah, I don’t think they were close to life at all 😂
Because of a couple of things (the way I see it). 1. Writers are too lazy to come up with a relationship dynamic…
I saw a hint of a switch couple in Dark Blue Kiss (played by Pod and Gawin), and Bad Buddy. Again, just mere hints - I guess they are scared to lose fans who live for hubby/wife trope 🤦♀️ My Ride was a great novel and series (I liked the novel better) - maybe because it’s written by an actual gay couple? I really don’t want to throw blanket statements here, so all I am saying is I would like to read and see more BLs created by men just to gather statistics. If you have any recommendations - I would love to see them 😊 Btw, I really liked Diaries of tootsies - I don’t think it’s a BL though 🧐
agreed horrible character and bad writing. watching this is testing my patience. I would have dropped this a long…
Same here. If it wasn’t for Tay I would just skip this story. Of course the fact that I like Tay and his character only adds to my frustration with Nueng character, so I’m not sure what’s better - watch it or drop it 😂 I will definitely come back for Arty’s story - I agree, Gun is an awesome versatile actor, and I don’t feel like his character would need a protection from an intrusive witch. Unfortunately, because I strongly relate to Thames character, all I want to do is protect him and sway a frying pan or something at Nueng 😂 Great job to all the actors and actresses - my bitching sessions always go only to characters and (sometimes) the writers who created them. Never the actors! Love them all! 🥰
Because of a couple of things (the way I see it). 1. Writers are too lazy to come up with a relationship dynamic…
Thank you 😊 I just prefer more mature topics, but “fluff and stuff” BLs go well with a certain mood ☺️And sometimes they are cringy funny, like you can see two guys basically horsing around, having fun 😉 I loved Manner of Death, Triage, My Ride, Not Me, Because of you, Long time no see, History installments. KinnPorsche was good - production and actors. Story? Well… ok. I probably shouldn’t have read the novel as I hated VP part there and I think it trickled down to the show, even though they changed it around (thank god). I liked Love Mechanics mainly because of very talented actors - War can act like there’s no tomorrow! I can watch him just standing still 😂 I do wish BLs brought more different characters, like I don’t think there’s enough strong bitchy effeminate guys who won’t trip over their own feet. Also, bring more “switch” couples who don’t adhere to seme/uke trope - the more different characters, the more interesting stories we can get - I think 😻 Sorry for my long post 😊
Not the best BL drama ever but I like that it doesn't take itself too seriously. I always cringe when it happens…
Because of a couple of things (the way I see it). 1. Writers are too lazy to come up with a relationship dynamic close to real life and just copy/paste good old tropy hetero dramas, substituting female with a male. Given that in Asian dramas FL is a perpetual damsel in distress, you get a guy who’s totally infantilized and cringy (just like those FLs). 2. The whole genre came about in countries with strong patriarchal structure, and women who created it were just having their sweet revenge by placing guys into the situations they would normally face. 3. Given that those tropes bring money from the fans who will eat anything as long as the guys are cute - why change and strive for better writing? 🤷♀️
So, we get what we get. Thankfully, we started seeing a change with better shows, but this trope of a super useless bottom will probably survive an apocalypse 🙄
idunno why a lot of ppl hate nueng, yes she is a spoiled brat and a foul-mouthed for a woman but she is being…
Well, let’s see how “adorable” her character is 🧐 1. She doesn’t give a shit about people’s life unless they are in her immediate circle (security guard she hit with her CAR and proceeded to buy a purse). 2. She is not only selfish but also dumb - she misplaced her hatred towards her father for bringing another woman in the house onto that woman who didn’t do anything to her. I still have no idea how she got that best CEO award… All that furniture was designed by Krit… she opened a cafe? Wow, cool… 🙄 3. She doesn’t understand personal boundaries - Thames is uncomfortable with her touching him and she proceeds to do it on purpose, “playing”. She kisses him without his consent.
I think that’s all for now. Just my opinion about her 😊 I’m really waiting for Arty’s story now.
Nueng is still not redeemable to me, sorry. As someone who strongly dislikes being touched - if I told her to…
Same with the kiss. She knows he’s a virgin at his age. That means he’s extremely particular about personal touch. Knowing that, planting absolutely meaningless kiss on him just because she feels like it is the next level of selfish and disgusting to me. Of course, this is a romcom and it’s made out to be “but he secretly loves it”, just like they do when genders are reversed. But I don’t see him liking it and there’s no consent, and that is a problem for me, whatever gender crosses the boundaries - I don’t care. Sorry for the rant 😣
Nueng is still not redeemable to me, sorry. As someone who strongly dislikes being touched - if I told her to stop touching me and she still continued - she’d be flying against the wall. She just doesn’t get boundaries. The rest is in the spoiler 😉
1) eternal yesterday is japanese 2) please smile once in a while this is like.. the max you're going to get out…
Wow, some people here can see your gender AND your race! 🙄 Please ignore this troll - everyone has a right to their opinion. Except for trolls, of course 😉 That’s why I don’t reply to them, especially when they’re trying so hard to be racist 🙄😂
Ok, so they decided to switch annoying females with annoying boys - got it! Pai switched his target (good boy), but they threw in another boy with evil plans? Is he new? I don’t remember him. Oh well, at least it’s a progress from idiotically evil females 🤷♀️ I’m not sure why Nam is still hanging out with Tap, though - she seemed to be smart and not pushy last time. I thought she figured them out - is she just having fun observing? 🧐 I really don’t know what they’ll do for the rest of the episodes except “kiss Prince/fight/have sex/we’re FWB” 🤦♀️ Why even have all the rest of the characters if you’re not using them?
As far as I remember from the novel, Hong asked Mangkorn to special order those bracelets as a surprise for her…
Yes, exactly! 😂 that’s why I wish they didn’t imply in the show that Yai is that smart to stage a whole assault on tape - he’s an idiot, not a rapist! I mean, what kind of bright ideas do you expect from a guy who thinks he’s pregnant after drinking some potion? 😂 Seriously, why did they decide to make THIS a series??? 🤦♀️ Did they just like the characters’ names and decided it would make a nice poster? 🤷♀️ To make anything out of that mess you have to start from scratch and have a brand new script 😊 Anyway, I like the actors, so good luck to them and hopefully better plots in the future! 🥂
WTF was this turn of events? Why am i feeling like watching a cut version of the uncut version?
Because they’d rather spend 5 minutes on a “drumroll” for who won the architectural club award (which is still a mystery) than showing us a relationship development 🤷♀️
As far as I remember from the novel, Hong asked Mangkorn to special order those bracelets as a surprise for her…
No problem :) I read the novel a long time ago, and I was honestly surprised why they even decided to make series out of it. It was so dumb! Yai in the novel is a super airhead with one brain cell, but he never thought about having sex with Mongkorn originally. He just wanted to embarrass him on tape. And then he got “interested” in his dick! 🤦♀️
I’m so confused after watching episode 5.. There is no continuation of the storyline..- Yai went to the party…
As far as I remember from the novel, Hong asked Mangkorn to special order those bracelets as a surprise for her girlfriend and she came to pick them up. But of course without knowing that info it looks super weird and intrusive, especially for Yai. But I guess that’s the whole premise of the plot built on misunderstandings 🤷♀️
I would have loved it if the line had been: "Doctor, what caused it?""Most likely she had a child that didn't…
I definitely disliked the doc being totally out of line, blaming the father who’s not even there for a decade. Making them hate their father while real culprit might be the fumes from mom perpetually cooking grilled meat and cleaning the restaurant with chemicals! 🙄 Peak outdid himself for sure. I was thinking he’d offer his support and reassurance of just being there for her, but nooo… 🤦♀️ Oh well, I still like the show and all the actors 😻
I really like this show and enjoy it a lot. The only thing I strongly disagree with is the way the doctor blatantly shoved all the blame for mom’s cancer on her ex husband. Why? To give the kids a scapegoat? But it’s their father who didn’t mean to cause this issue and now they have to do what - hate him? Yes, that 3rd hand smoking (first time I hear about it) could cause something, or it could not - the doc has no means to find out. Lots of people live with the heavy smokers and nothing happens. And for some people it does happen. I don’t smoke and can’t tolerate smoking around me - I start choking, so I don’t root for this habit. Also, she spent all her life in the kitchen grilling and cleaning up using some chemicals I bet. I think all those fumes might be playing much bigger part in the cause of her illness, but doc didn’t even ask about her daily life! 🙄
I just don’t think the doc had any right to place the blame with no doubt on the only close relative those kids had left. He could have handled it differently.
