exactly i agree Also, if they ended up killing the king it would have not been true to the story... since IRL he didn't die until he was old(?)

Hated how the FL was treated by everyone. Even her own son, who had deep respect for his dad, had no respect for his mom (the FL)... and she just took it? I can't however completely blame it all on her son... the FL was also to blame, for being such a weakling and never being firm with her son.. If i had a child who treated me badly... trust me, then I wouldn't be anything like the FL!

Me too, I avoid mostly slap/kiss lakorns but there is a few that I can't help but to be interested in (Kluen Cheewit, Hua Jai Sila...) but overall its a big nono for me! I'm not saying ALL of lakorns are problematic, I have seen a few wonderful lakorns with no rape/sexual harassment/abuse etc... Bpoop Phaeh Saniwaat is a gem! :)

finally someone stated the facts! I love thailand but gosh their rape culture is sickening! There is not just rape in Thai BLs but also in so many thai dramas overall with straight couples, so called "slap/kiss" dramas...

because when searching "thai lakorns" on youtube first thing that comes up for me at least is clips of ML sexually abusing the FL.There are lots of fanmade MVs of rape scenes in lakorns

Ah ok, maybe I just have had bad luck of coming across where most ones has rape.

I see one of the tags ”rape”
*facepalm* rape??? Really Thailand, I thought Thailand had finally moved from r-scenes (ML raping FL) , but guess not =_= When will Thailand learn that in lakorns a relationship can still be very interesting without any rape involved?? You can still create a wonderful, exciting love-hate couple without it. I wouldn’t be complaining if just a a very few lakorns had r-scenes , but since it seems like a standard (like more than 50% lakorns having the ML raping the FL) it really annoys me. Rape is a very serious traumatizing experience..I don’t mind there being rape as long as it’s NOT romanticized...that if there is any rape, it won’t be the FL’s romantic love interest. I love Thailand so much ,but I hate their disgusting rape culture. But don’t take my comment to heart, I’m not looking down on you who love this drama, everyone are allowed to love whatever they want :) There has been a few slap/kiss lakorns I actually enjoyed, but majority I was so disturbed by!

I loved AePete so much !! They were my favorite BL couple, their relationship was so beautiful. So while TinCan was the more popular couple, it was AePete that stole my heart. When I heard of s2 I was overjoyed, mainly to see more of AePete , their continuation of their story (I knew some things from the novel that would happen in their relationship, so I was so happy to see it come alive on screen in season 2!! There was so much left to tell about AePete, how their relationship would develop and grow stronger after their ”honeymoon phase”, Pete’s homophobic dad coming to the picture, Pete’s childhood friend wanting to destroy his relationship with Ae, etc ) but ofc my happiness didn’t last for many minutes, as I went to this page and saw that Saint was missing from the cast... And I learned about him not being in s2, it made me very sad and bitter...I lost all interest in this drama, while I did like TinCan, the love I had for TinCan was not nearly as deep as the love I had for AePete.

Idk ...season 2 without Pete just feels so empty for me, not right at all. I loved his character in season 1. I try to think it was for the best(?) to not have Saint included , that maybe it was the best for Saint, as he wouldn’t have to deal with Perth’s jerk to a manager. Still very sad about this ...if they are gonna destroy the AePete relationship completely by having Ae fall in love for another Guy (which did NOT happen in the novel !!) then thats too bad :/ But I try not to care so much anymore, because what’s the point of continuing shipping AePete when the ship is basically dead already. Sorry for my rant, idk what I really want with my post xD This is the first time a fictional couple I love, has it basically destroyed. Hopefully there will be No second time lol

Okay, I have heard of the ban... but maybe it was not true, dunno. Neverthless, I'm looking forward to this one! :)

OMG I can't believe this is the first thai drama I finished!! I was seriously in huge shock/ so disturbed by this... For newbies when it comes to thai dramas, then plz don't do the same mistake as me and watch this... it might scare off you from thai dramas for good. Newbies, if you are interested in a thai drama, look first if it has "slap/kiss" as tag, if not .. then it is safe(most of the times), meaning no forceful kisses or even worse - rape. Jam Loey Rak is a totally messed up lakorn, Harit is such a bad person... not just when it comes to Soraya, but overall as well. He is def hot and manly looking, but thats all. I was so pissed off at the ending since Soraya's cousin (the evil bitch) didn't basically get any punishment for her actions, while Soraya (the nice innocent one) got harshly punished.

Is it true that this has only a little romance? :(

If I'm not mistaken...real kisses are not allowed in channel 3, or has the ban been lifted? Hopefully, I want to see real kisses between Pope and Bella, their chemistry is just too amazing!! Well, even if real kisses are still banned, I will still watch this without a doubt ^^ I know there was kisses in Bpoop Phaeh Saniwaat, but they were so tame lol, but its kinda understandable, since it was set in Ayutthaya era. I don't mean to come across as someone shallow, like I said... even without real kisses I'll still watch it, it can still be a very good lakorn!

I was thinking exact same thing!

I haven't even watched Love O2O, but I'm still very interested in this (unconfirmed?) drama :) If it's true that "Falling in Love with You Is the Best Thing I Have Ever Done" will be made, I'll definitely watch it!!

Yep, more romantic dramas should end like that - marriage and kids. The ultimate happy ending, can't get any happier than that!

Oh thanks so much !!! :D it helps a lot! I really need to rewatch this adorable drama again <3

Ugh I lost interest in this drama since when a few guys (if i remember correctly) was going to rape the FL, and the ML not bothering doing anything about it despite knowing their plans. He didn't have to go there to save her himself, he could have just told a teacher that she was about to get raped, so the teacher(s) could have put a stop on it.I lost all my respect for the ML because of this, no one should ever ignore it when knowing someone is about to get raped (even if that person who is about to get raped is not someone you know). And in this case, the FL was someone the ML knew and had "feelings" for.

Well, I don't love this drama. The ML was at first too much of a creep/asshole... Great chemistry tho., lots of sexual tension. If you can go past what the ML did to FL at the beginning, then you might come to love their chemistry. Chemistry is no joke in here.

i'm sad there are not as many great taiwanese dramas as it used to be before :(

The Princess' Man. The chemistry between the leads is amazing. It's concidered the Joseon version of Romeo and Juliet... one of my alltime favorite dramas!! Everything is perfection... the cast, storyline,, OSTs. I warmly recommend TPM if you want another intense historical drama:)

Whoa that sex scene !! It's the most explicit sex scene I ever seen in a k-drama!! Hot, hot, hot... I think I need a shower asap lol. The chemistry between Moon Chae Won and Lee Joon Gi is one of the best ever, I'm almost afraid watching that hot scene again because my computer might melt from the hottness lol. Now I understand why Flower of Evil is shown so late in Korea.
