Yeah, the former main CP became background noise almost instantly. As much I liked that new world’s dad of Thai wasn’t successful to make him “strong”, it wasn’t well written and executed. Almost 2 episodes what felt more like an afterthought at the end.

In the Original series time isn’t simply linear. They exist parallel, even can be in the same timeframe. And it was the renewed ML who fell for the FL and back. I found it incredible funny how both used past bitchy ML to send each other messages through him. It was so well written. Past ML started to fall for FL too but she clearly wasn’t into him. I felt sorry for him, that he died but he did to save both of them. Even when he can’t have her, his other self was loved. The Remake totally botched the timeline. Whoever wrote the script didn’t had any idea how the SciFi part works. They just took pieces and put them together without sense and sensibility. It is an okay Drama when you don’t know the Original series but it is an outright insult when you do. 🥺

Yeah, the script isn‘t well done. When you adapt a plot heavy novel to tv screen with only a few episodes, you have to leave something out. You maybe should focus on the red thread an leave the side arcs out. It feels more like problem of the day/evil of the day episodes than a story that connects its parts together like a puzzle.

Haha, the invisible armor reminds me of the Chinese Isekai novels when a cannon fodder character has to suffer because of the CP halo.

So true 😆

I agree that it isn't on the script only but the script is the fundament. When it isn't transfered well into TV format, no one can save it. But yes, sometimes a producer or director killed good scripts. There are names in Chinese Dramaworld you beg to not get picked up from. What I never experienced was a team saving a bad script. The best what can happen is making it so bad, that people love it. Trash TV was immensly popular in my youth. I think Unforgotten Night is a good example in BL world. Every episode felt like an accidental Muppet Show for me.

It depends on the production. I know that Not Me made script changes and LITA too. In Not Me the director was co-scriptwriter and Love in the Air was produced by the novel's writer. So, that may be the reason and it did good. Sometimes you notice only on set what works and what not. But generally I think it is good for the actors to have a script that is almost done, so they can impersonate their character better. It must be highly stressful to come to work and everything you prepared for changed. Especially K-Drama often is a bit ridiculous and it is very noticable when the production left the actors and actresses behind. I think finding a balance is the best.

So far it is getting better. Still, for me, the main characters aren‘t like humans in RL would react. They are too novel perfect. The story still is too much packed with too many characters in a short time. I can‘t emotional connect when I constantly get thrown around. I know, they have too little episodes for too much plot but it is on the screenwriter/s to transfer a novel to tv screen without loosing the essence of it. I love the premise but the realization is somewhat lacking, so far.

Cool! Have fun.

They did that last week with EP10 but I wouldn’t count on this again. Free users can only watch first 10 episodes. At least that is what they state at their website.

VIU is always only the first 10 EP for free. 🤷‍♀️

Gosh, Pai and Rock are so cute together but it is such a shame that Jan and Ssing have no chemistry at all. At least for me.

You are welcome.

Good luck. It worked fine for me. The option is rather at the end and mine was completely in English. Did you change your system language after login?

For me it is more weird him wearing them and you clearly can see they are fake.

Don’t they accept your CC? Choose the VIU premium option. It is just 150 Baht for one month and you can just cancel after paying right away. A pint of ice cream cost more than that.

Checked my old manga and nope, nothing. Achi is getting a job offer to develop his career and has to leave Karan for a while. Maybe we start to deviate from the manga.

I‘m not sure such a rule would be even legal in Japan and I always thought Thailand was above „employees are slaves“ too.

P.S. I used the Thai names instead the Japanese ones for better understanding.

Exactly, this show is great with real character development. And I love that the side characters get their chance to shine too. Heck, I even like the boss.

Well, he never dated. No wonder he has troubles. But he did grow since the beginning and I like the direction he is going. Especially today’s episode when he wanted to be cool and noticed Min doesn’t care for that.

I absolutely love Jinta even though I’m not a fan of Tsuge. Jinta is a great friend and even though he is socially awkward it isn’t to the point that it isn’t realistic. Other than Achi who lacks a lot of social skills and seems sheltered, Jinta knows what goes on in this world and how to articulate. He is booksmart for sure.

The law works in favor of men first. Having money is just the cream on top of the cake.
