About the drama arc happening at the last episodes, isn't this quite common in dramas? My only complain at this…
They probably added it because they wanted to deviate from the novel (which is fair) and to give Mint and Tee more screentime. Personally, I don't have a problem with them making changes, but there are only two episodes left, and it kinda messed up the pace. But, oh well. Guess we'll see how it turns out next Saturday.
Tbh, this is probably my least favorite episode. Don't get me wrong, I love the interaction between Thee, Peach and Plub, along with the subtle but significant moments that had me anticipating what might happen next. And JJ, poor guy (lmao)! However, the scene where Tawan punched Peach felt downright underwhelming. Maybe it has to to do with the fact that I read the novel beforehand, and I understand production may want to change some things so the show wouldn't be identical to the novel. Still, this particular scene is a pivotal point in Thee and Peach's relationship, and they absolutely botched it.
Another thing is, there are only 2 episodes left, and they finally remembered all stories need a villain? Like, seriously? This is the point where they should be winding things down, and they decided to commit the ultimate Thai lakorn sin by cramming one last storyline towards the end of the show. Granted, I feel that the production team has been doing a good job so far with the pace and everything, and for a moment, I wonder if someone else has taken over.
Anyways, overall I'd say the show is still great. After a week of GMMTV-less show, I NEEDED this episode. Still, I couldn't help but feel dissatisfied about the direction it's going. But, I'm still optimistic, so I'll hold out and see how they're gonna start and wrap up Touch's storyline in 1-2 episodes. At this rate, they'll probably need to do a few special episodes to wrap everything up.
How many shows from gmmtv have been in netflix before this one?
Two. Enigma Black Stage and this one, though GMMTV did have shows on other streaming platforms, such as Viu and Disney+. I think Home School and Enigma were on Amazon Prime Video.
i dropped this in the first episode but idk should i pick it up again? is it good?
Imo, i think the trailer was a bit misleading. There's actually less comedic moments, and more angst than I anticipated. It definitely is one of those shows that gets better as the storyline progresses. It started out with Botpleng wanted to recover his memories and learn about his past, and things get pretty complicated from there.
I had to rewatch the episodes to get a better hang of the storyline because there seems to be one plot twist after another. So Pleng's first love is actually Thunphob, but he has been masquerading as Tankhun, and somewhere along the line, Thunphob died, and Pleng lost his memories in an accident. So, now they're trying to investigate how Thunphob died? If that's the case... what about the two bodies? And why is the grandmother so hellbent on keeping Pleng from investigating his past? Is there some kind of feud between Pleng's and Thunphob's families?
It doesn't matter what series get put out by any agency, it's always people complaining 🙄 It's not their job…
And it's only two episodes in, so there's hardly anything one can complain about (for now). Plus, this is on Netflix, so given the amount of people complaining about it not being free, I wouldn't be surprised if they watched it on a pirated site. Like, you watched it illegally, then have the audacity to complain about it? How dumb can you be? *smh
Y'all complain about every series they put out just be quiet
Just ignore this fool. They just go about everywhere dropping their opinions and called them facts, then tried to make themselves look legit because they're supposedly an expert in their field. Film major? Not bloody likely. It's stupid, really, especially when you look at their username and realize it's just another fake account. They're too cowardly to use their actual account to state "facts."
It's too bad Tar got killed off so early in the series. Aungpao has shown some good acting here, totally different from his roles in Cooking Crush and Perfect 10 Liners.
In the novel, Thee's father is Russian, and his mother is Thai. He grew up in Russia, but his mother wanted him…
Yeah, that part is a tad confusing. However, in the novel, because of the nature of the family business, Thee, Rome and Mhok all grew up learning various languages.
In the novel, Thee's father is Russian, and his mother is Thai. He grew up in Russia, but his mother wanted him…
It's not impossible for Pond to pass off as Thee because according to the novel descriptions, he takes after his mother. However, if GMMTV plans to adapt Calm Down, Mr. Rome, then it also makes sense to change the ethnicitiy for both brothers since in the novel, Rome looks more Russian than Thai, and I honestly cannot imagine William with bleached hair.
Question: I'm a little confused here. I've heard Thee be accused of having "not very good Thai," from…
In the novel, Thee's father is Russian, and his mother is Thai. He grew up in Russia, but his mother wanted him and his brother to know her side of their heritage, so she'd make them watch her old movies and lakorns. That's why he talks like a movie character. The show probably changed that due to political reasons (with the ongoing Russian/Ukrainian war and all that).

Thee: Are you complimenting another man in front of me?
I can't even... ROFL!!!
