I don’t want to criticise this really well-done series, but I am getting a little uncomfortable with how they…
"Child labor" would be more accurate if they children were being deprived of their freedom and rights as children in exchange for small amounts of money through hard minial labor over the course long hours under poor working conditions. I cant see why its considered child labor when they are helping out their own families and volunteering. Those kids werent doing as a job in the sense they are being hired. They volunteered in helping out to save their village and family. Before the sachets they were working in the farms plucking tea leaves, and sewing clothing, and help raising the chickens which would be sold. Now they just are working on another job. But no one considered what they did before making the sachets as child labor. So if what they did by helping the family is considered as child labor, then making them to act and film a TV series would be too Lol
Ok I know it's not PC to talk about it but any way I look at it they are making the childreen sew the sachets...…
LOL If u consider them doing the sachets as child labor then asking the kids to act in the series would also be child labor. LOL They VOLUNTEERED to help the village. Its not like they were made or forced to work in a factory.
The fact that this series actually has a villain is nice touch. Nearly all other BL series never actually have a villain. Its always some sorta relationship problem that causes issues throughout the series. And the fact that Kaotung's character isnt there just as a comic relief or fan service is another nice detail. His character actually serves a purpose to the story.
Its great they finished season 2 so fast BUT its also a scary thought. Although Im carrying high hopes for season 2, fast production could lead to poor results.
what was the significance of Tian buying those 2 bags of Osmanthus sachets? Was it just so the director could have a cameo? It seems they tried to make it look like an important scene/element but then there was no follow up to that scene
My guess is that it might be some sort of Devil's Bargain GMM does to get funding for their shows: it seems to…
hahaha. The devil now comes in mixed blended form haha What is worrisome is that with many shows, as they become more popular after a few eps, more products are promoted. In some cases ppl have said that scenes were redone, or replaced, or cut out cause more sponsors decide to jump onto the show. And the end results cause the remaining eps to fall apart
Another great ep BUT....those product placements are becoming frequent and slowly becoming "forced" The Snacks in ep 3....the Shampoo in ep 4,....and now the energy drink, and the energy drinks other sponsored products and the coffee in ep 5. I hate it when shows become crowded with promoting products because of the shows increasing popularity.
Its not up yet. its only the reminder for ep5 airing tomorrow
Haha. ok I guess u dont understand that ur wording might mislead ppl. But I also see what u were trying to say. (I know english can be difficult for some ppl)
So instead of letting this series just end with the horribly boring season 2, they decided to prolong the agony for the viewers by adding this "special". Its nothing more than a cheap flashback/summary of the previous eps with roughly 20 mins of new footage spread across 1.5 hours. And it doesnt even wrap up that nicely...The director should have just let the series die with some dignity after season 2. Why bring it back for more humiliation and embarrassment for the series and the actors?
After having watched quite a few series, not many of them have songs that stuck me to very strongly. This series' theme song however brings about another set of feelings after listening to it. Its calming and soothing, but brings about a bit of sadness (in a good way) I dont speak or understand thai. But to put it in a lamer form its one of those songs u dont need to understand what they lyrics are saying. The melody conveys feelings and is a song u will feel comfortable hearing even though u may not be watching or know about the series. (Im not saying its the best song Ive heard, and im sure everyone has their preference about music. I just think as a song in a foreign language its a good song)
People are really worked up over the peeping thing huh.... I really couldn't care less about that scene... People…
I totally agree. I know in many asian countries, in the rural or more traditional parts, they have various wedding traditions. Ppl seem to think that peeking is the tradition referred in this scene. But they seem to forget that the real tradition they were talking about is for the couple to have an intimate night NOT the peeking part. Those guys and Tian werent supposed to be there.

Im guessing GMMTV has only 1000 to sell? haha

And these kids dont even get paid haha
