After having seen this and TOSSARA, I get that they're short series and all, but there could have been a little more packed into these episodes. Like a little less screen time for Dewy and Facebook post scrolling and a little more time for some nuance. This was a clear step up from TOSSARA, but in general, there doesn't seem to be anything very special about this. If there had to be something special for me, I'd say it's the fact that we get kisses thrown in everywhere and there's not some overdramatic build-up to the ONE kiss in the series. Also, War's acting is good.
why is this girl writing a romance fiction about her brother that's so weird lmaooojejwjejj
Writers for years, literally centuries, have been writing the love stories of their family members. As strange as it my seem, writers draw a lot on their own lives.
Plot: basic Acting: mediocre Production quality: low Writing: shameful
Categorically, this was a bad series. I can agree with the general sentiment there. HOWEVER, I completely disagree with the notion that there was no chemistry between the leads. The way Gun looms over Bar and stares at him with his dopey smile, their little peck kisses here and there, etc. ...the chemistry's there. It's the writing that failed their most intimate interactions.
What I loved about the concept of like My Engineer for example is what I disliked about this series. My Engineer wasn't innovative at all. It just delivered the basic, typical Thai BL engineer school senior/junior theme we've all seen before, but it delivered it VERY well. No twists, no surprises, no innovation, just the basics done right. Tossara takes every single element of that theme and makes it as lackluster as possible and that's sad because all the elements were there, but few to none of them were delivered well.
I didn't hate it (probably because it's only four episodes), but this is also probably my least-liked BL (mini)series.
Well, I dare say that I tried to watch Tossara but no sympathy for Win, so I gave it up. All the characters in…
I see where you're coming from. Like, they could have presented him as someone who's "hot" at school due to an aspect of his personality or his background. Like the "exotic half-Thai, half-white kid" or the "nerd who doesn't realize that he's actually charming", but they just went with the "popular hot guy" troupe and it doesn't fit him that well.
I don't know how I feel. I like the actors so much, so I don't want to say this is terrible, but this show now also has very little redeeming itself. Episodes 7-10 were fun, though.
before the actors and all the supposedly called hot scenes...this was one of the worst way of handling a plot…
The acting and the chemistry (not even just the sexual) between the leads are what made this show as popular as it was/is. I personally like it, but I still see how problematic it is.
I'm six episodes in and I REALLY want what you're saying to be my feelings after the shows over, but rn I still…
She wasn't trying to give them scar on purpose, but she honestly didn't seem to show much remorse (read: no remorse) for it after. I'll take it cuz she was somewhat justified in wanting to stab the man trying to kill her father, but still...
And the brother getting the dream job was contingent on her gaining more attention from GT.
I like the the characters with faults too and I love MY. I just feel like her actions get more romanticized than they would if she were a man. If all this stuff were happening to a woman by a man in this show, I'm sure someone would have called the police by now. lol

I feel the total opposite about the gender thing. It's not necessarily her attitude, but her actions. I've never seen a drama in recent times where the guy gets away with something like leaving a permanent scar on a woman, causing her to almost lose her job *multiple times* and often times deliberately, or specifically manipulating her younger sibling in order to get her to live with him/spend more time with him. I feel like if there were a drama and a man did half of the things MY has done (from what I've seen so far), people would be very, very disturbed or at least find the guy to be a jerk. *shrug* I dunno...maybe I need to watch more dramas. lol
I love how people judge MY for being manipulative, yet forget practically everyone is, to get the best outcome…
I'm six episodes in and I REALLY want what you're saying to be my feelings after the shows over, but rn I still feel like she's manipulative. Honestly, manipulative is putting it nicely as far as I'm concerned. She's extremely problematic. I absolutely love her though, in spite of that.
However, I can't shake some thoughts: What if the roles were reversed? Would we still have the same hype? Is it it possible she's getting a pass for a lot of this because she's a woman?
I couldn't imagine them being a couple. But it works surprisingly well. They seem real and believable to me, despite…
Ep. 9 when Tin and Can are sitting on the couch. Can is eating a string-like snack. Tin starts eating it from the other end until they almost kiss. Just like in the movie The Lady and the Tramp when they're eating the same piece of spaghetti.
