But Joong said it will be a romcom, here: https://x.com/ChenRcj/status/1954439589294379374.
Yeah, no. I'd say there are some funny moments in the novel, particularly with Jade flirting with Khamin, but other than that, it's pretty serious and intense.
1) Don't take it seriously 2) They tried to slip in some serious topics through comedy and it was a hit-or-miss. 3) This is completely different from Naughty Babe and Two Worlds, so there's no comparison. In a way, that's a good thing.
Overall, I have to give MaxNat props for venturing out of their comfort zone to make something wacky and chaotic ilke this. It's not the worst show I've watched, but I wouldn't call it good, either. However, it's good that they are trying different things rather than limiting themselves to acting certain genres.
Just started reading the novel and... is it only me who really wants William (Thee’s little bro) to be the one…
You mean Rome? It could happen, though I think GMMTV might wait to see how Me and Thee did with ratings and viewership before deciding whether or not to adapt Calm Down Mr. Rome. Would be nice if they'd do it. I think fans are dying to see William and Est do a 2nd collab together. Thame Po was amazing, without a doubt one of my favorites.
I'm just gonna wait for the last episode to air and just watch the rest in one go. There are only two episodes left anyway. Kinda need some time to recover after what happened in episode 12.
Maybe it's just me, but I found it easier to hate Tomoya (Japanese version of Minhwan) in this adaptation than in the Korean version. Don't get me wrong, Lee Yi Kyung is an incredible actor, but every time I see him, all I can think of is, "Gwenchana Gwenchana!!"
In the Korean version, Minhwan somehow managed to come across as funny and infuriating at the same time. In the Japanese version, I just wanna kill Tomoya. Of course, no hate to the actor. Yokoyama Yu has done a fantastic job bringing the character to life. He actually follows more closely with the web novel.
So his first name is Ravipon, I thought it was Supha
Ravipon was his first name, but it was later changed to Supha. It's not uncommon for Thais to change their names for personal, religious or career reasons. Hell, some people change it to improve their luck.
C-dramas are pretty repetitive nowadays. Too many restrictions, too many rules, and little room for creativity.…
Um, not necessary. Production is weird that way. They don't always go for what you think it's the logical direction, but oh well. At the end of the day, it's just entertainment. I've read the novel, too. Personally, i prefer the novel version, though I watch the show because of Yang Zi.

Author cited Baidu as her source. That's basically China's Wikipedia, so she probably just took that and translated it into English, and added parts of the novel into the article, as well. To be honest, if the drama is based on a novel (loosely or closely), then chances are readers have already spoiled it. Most people watch these shows either for the acting, the costumes, or so that they can compare the drama with the novel.
This is why nowadays, I prefer original scripts over adaptations. At least those are harder to spoil.
Well, I guess it's.... okay to have a full blown description of what's going to happen in the series. No surprises…

EP3 of “Body Swap, Love Unlocked” — Cringe meets ambition, and somehow, it works.Okay, yes. Watching someone…
I wasn't sure what to make of this show at first. It's like MaxNat are trying to shake off their previous labels and go in a completely new direction. Yet, in the midst of the chaos and confusion, they somehow made it work. After Naughty Babe and Two Worlds, I feel like they're introducing a new side of themselves.
