Synchonicity

Thank you! :)

Please know that BL has a large following of gay men, both young and adult. Check out reaction videos, at least half of them are gay men. Sorry, but "I don't like men, I just like him" is ridiculous and insulting. At least some BL producers have introduced gay leading characters (Korn in TWM, Pete in LBC, Tharn, Pete in DBK, Intouch in UWMA and more), and that hasn't hurt the BL popularity one bit.

So why do gay men watch? Because, after a lifetime of watching almost nothing but heterosexual relationships on screen, BL is as close to featuring and normalizing gay relationships as it gets, other than watching porn. It helps with a feeling of acceptance, something gay people have struggled with their whole lives. For them (which includes me), BL serves a purpose which goes far beyond fetishizing men sleeping together.

I just remembered one plot line that got dumped (and it's the only one I can think of): Ram's dad having an affair with Ram's best friend. Whatever happened with that? (Season 2, maybe... )

So much fun!

Great minds think alike. :)

Ep. 5 is up (with English subs)!

This went as well as I could have hoped! (Especially after the trainwrecks of some other BLs this season.) Especially happy the way Ram/King and Mek/Boss ended. As much as I've groaned about Bohn/Duen, their ending was cute. Thara/Frong never excited me all that much (mainly because their storyline was never all that developed), but it's nice that they've left it open ended for a Season 2.

One question: I never heard Bohn tell Duen that he (Bohn) didn't actually kiss Mild. But in the finale, when Bohn said he had no feelings for Mild, Duen's response was "I know." So then... what was all that "Scarlett O'Hara" whining about for the last two episodes? And why didn't Bohn just come out and tell Duen that Mild was the attacker?

That aside, I give this series a thumbs up for not giving up on story lines, and actually completing them. Unlike some other series, I never thought "Hey, whatever happened to (fill in name of character) from the first 4 episodes?"

This was a solid 9.0 for me.

Well, if it's to be trusted, The Shipper description does say LGBTQ+ and Gay Relationship, so we can hope for the best, I guess!

I'm pretty sure the only site with English subtitles is the one you've found. She's gotten up to Ep. 5, but we will have to wait for the others.

Thailand is indeed taking COVID-19 very seriously. Not only am I not expecting any kissing in the near future, but it's hard to even imagine filming, with anyone in close contact, holding hands, etc.

There's been talk that one couple will not have a happy ending. If that's true, I'd love it to be Bohn/Duen. They're too juvenile and toxic... but I probably won't be so lucky, lol. Logic would say it's Mek/Boss, with Ryan being out for a Season 2. If it's Ram/King, I swear imma cut a bitch.

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU @BrandoRando and @Agnes! For me, Duen is the only thorn in what otherwise is a really good BL series. I've been over the whole Bohn/Duen coupling for at least half the series now. I'm not watching university students, I'm watching ten year olds acting like they're "going steady." Duen's melodrama is just too much and Bohn isn't much better. They're just too tiring, I really don't care whether they end up together or not... even if they do, I get the feeling it wouldn't (and shouldn't) last very long.

Loved the first ep! Good chemistry, it will be fun to see how this develops. (Kind of glad these are short episodes, a nice change from series that drag on endlessly... )

I have no idea what I just watched, lol! After about five minutes I felt sure I would drop this right away, but I kept going. It got more entertaining as it went along. I'll give it a shot.

Love you, @Ty McC . Stay healthy and safe!

We are so on the same page, Gottillc! Mek/Boss are the ones that concern me. I think it would be weird if Boss suddenly went back with Fon. In fact, it would kind of ruin their whole storyline for me. I have no doubt that Bohn/Duen will work out their issues. The fujoshi-man in me (haha!) would love to see a kiss between Ram/King and maybe Bohn/Duen in the final episode. Something tells me that Thara/Frong (the real adults in the series) may be put on hold until Season 2. But--at least--this series has a somewhat believable storyline. Holding good thoughts for the finale!

Hmm... I didn't feel like this was such a bad episode. A little tension with three out of the four couples, while they're all on a camping trip. (Shit always happens when you've got a group on a vacay, lol.) Unless the finale is a complete disaster, I'm pretty okay with this series.

Yes! Bohn is really immature, too. I don't think either one of them is ready for an actual relationship. I mean, geez... they are university students, majoring in engineering and medicine. You'd think they were in middle school.

Love, love, LOVE this series! Ram/King are so sweet, Mek/Boss is adorable, Thara/Frong have chemistry... which brings me to main couple.

For me, Bohn/Duen just don't work, and Duen is the problem. I've seen naive, virginal and playing-hard-to-get characters many times, so I was trying to figure out why I find Duen SO annoying. Finally, I've figured it out...

It's because Duen acts like a TEN YEAR OLD. Seriously.

Not cute anymore. I just can't.

Great, thanks!
