"And then there’s Nong. The supposed straight man"Where did you get that he is straight?
I somehow knew that is the scene you are basing this on, but this is very likely to be a misinterpretation, The Thai word "Faen" is non-gender specific and it means both girlfirend and boyfriend. The translation indeed says girlfriend, but that is the rudimentary quality of these subs for this show (not ununsual btw that other English subbers of Thai shows mistakenly choose this instead of using something like lover, partner or significant other when the sex of the other party is not defined). If you rewatch it, when it comes to Wi's confession, the subtitle also says "I used to have three girlfriends. All men". So it is clearly the case of an erroneous translation.
That scene is more like about Wi being totally upfront about his sexual orientation while Nong is dancing around the question, at least in front of strangers . But if you look at closely how Nong's family and friends behave around him, especially when they see him with Wi, I think it is pretty obvious everyone there knows him being gay. It was particularly telling when Ni asked Jump about whether Nong had someone at the beginning. I might be just speculating but Jump nearly spilled the beans there.
It would have been totally out of place in that situation, not to mention a reckless thing to do there in public…
That was a moment of tender solace and those small gestures like hugging ad caressing suited the situation far better than any kiss, for which it was not the time and place.
It’s going so good. But waiting for new eps is a pain in the neck. Ep 5 was amazing. That scene where they sit…
It would have been totally out of place in that situation, not to mention a reckless thing to do there in public now. The script does not have to defy logic only to serve kiss-obsessed fans.
Saenkaew, your mother died because of your monster father. She tried to protect you from him. If anyone is responsible for her death then it is your worthless father, you should not feel smpathy for him. I am already mad that this human garbage is likely to be given forgiveness at the end in the best Lakorn tradition just because he is called a "father". He should die in agony.
I think there's hope for a happy ending since Nut's tumor was detected earlier than in the previous timeline.…
Nut was taken to the hospital just a few days before the competition now, plus the surgery should take place in Bangkok. I don’t think it makes much difference.
WHY are people getting mad at those upset with the SA?? Them just excusing it bc it's a yakuza drama is stupid...…
You are talking absolute rubbish out of your arse.
Nothing is "romanticized" here. Both sexual interactions between the yakuza head and the underling were presented in a grim, absolutely aromantic way.
You annoying SJWs cry and go on and on about "romanticizing" whenever something unpleasant just happens on the screen . For some godddamn stupid reason you have the idea that creators owe you not to show such grim aspects or if they do there should be a preachy condemnation displayer about it.
And no, romance is not always sweet rainbows and butterflies. It can be dark, grim and unpleasant as well, especially in the world of people from an organized crime.
If anyone is "problematic" then the self-appointed finger-pointers like you who cannot just walk away from a show but feel the need to play the moral supremacist.
i think it is important to talk about consent. But I think people talk about consent like a binary - either yes…
"Talking about consent" in a yakuza-themed drama is like talking about killing in a murder mystery or talking about violence in an action movie. Pointless and futile.
Consent police freaks just jog along. Wtf did you expect from a yakuza-themed show? Also people like how can a vicious gangster be suddenly kind to a boy with a bird. So personalities are not black or white? How shocking. Jesus wept, what a kindergarten again.
But whether you like it or not, that's the reality. Do you think the world is a fairy tale and all parents are…
What about trying to comprehend what I wrote first before you respond? My point is not that why it is shown. The frigging problem is that Asian productions, especially Thai lakorns always find excuses for such abusive parental behaviour, and I have my two cents that is gonna happen here as well.
Another horrific piece of shit father about whom I have no doubt the show will try to shove down our throats that all the abuse he is doing to his son is happening in the name of love and who will untoubtedly get away with his disgusting actions without anyone ever telling him off - in the best Lakorn tradition.
I love the music that played during both of Naran's and Krailert's love scenes. Google's music search feature…
I am subbing this series for another lnaguage and I always include the songs. I have to tell that throughout the series the songs and especially the lyrics always fitted perfectly with the proceedings. It is a crime the captions were not added to the English subtitles.
