Qin's parents are the WORST!!! Like, I'm actually astounded at how fucking awful they are! Your child comes to you, hurt and all you can tell them is "don't be snarky" "we ignored you but let you do whatever you want so be a good boy again" "it's my fault, are you satisfied?" like...crazy people! You're wondering why he never brought it up? Cos you didn't provide him with the tools to know how to do that and you let his abuser walk completely FREE when you had video and medical evidence to have her thrown in jail! I don't care that Qin "made up" with them, they are awful people and useless parents. But I did like seeing Qin open up more and more, especially with how affectionate he is with Duang. Their little kisses were so cute and lovely. The difference between Qin’s parents and Duang’s were so stark and almost offensive at how they were so much more present and loving and you could see how comfortable Qin was even though he’s not good in situations that require talking and interacting. Haa, I’m gonna miss this series when it’s over, though I can’t help but wish they would pull a Fourever You and make more stories for the side couples. I wanna see Pae and Tong becoming something and I want messy jealous drama with Jett and Marvis, they’re all too interesting to remain background characters.
Wronged him?! Lady, you abused your child, out here trying to lighten your literal crime....Qin is too good in forgiving them... This episode was the best! Duang and Qin are finally together!!! Their love scene was to die for, obsessed with how well DMD does their NC scenes, they're always so intimate and sexy. Also TeeTee, damn, bro has one hell of a sleeper build, I didn't know he was that built. I can't believe there's only 3 episodes left, I'm gonna be so sad when this is over...😭😭😭😭
am i tripping or is Klao's assistant/maid not Tonnam anymore? or is it still Tonnam, but it's just the styling/make…
I feel like he got replaced and mydramalist just didn't update the casting? That or he lost a serious amount of weight and I just don't recognize him anymore
Why?????? Who the hell was this even made for? Like, is this what they think BL lovers actually like?! It's sick and gross and I regret watching it. There are soooo many different plots that can be done that are maybe a bit more mature and dark but this was just straight up rape with zero story to make up for it.
Oh my gosh, is Tao Sarocha just every BL boy's mother now?😂😂😂 also I've missed PerthSanta, I'm so glad they're a main couple again, it's crazy to think that this is only their 3rd series together, I think, it feels like they've been together forever. Guess great chemistry is like that
Gosh TeeTee is killing this role as Duang. It's actually really difficult because a character like Duang can get irritating really fast but he's doing it with such an endearing charm that I just can't hate that hyperactive over-the-top-ness. His excitable screams and baby voices are sooo cute, especially since it's not actually always like that. His voice noticeably lowers when the situation is serious or he's talking to someone he doesn't like, and especially when he goes into seduction mode with Qin. The switch up in tone is amazingly done. Not to mention how the air just feels heavier when he's upset and stressed, like it's as if he's taken all the air with him. I also love what a horn-dog Duang is 😂 and I'm kind of glad they didn't make him or Qin virgins, like they were both pretty upfront about their past experiences and positions they preferred, plus let's be honest, we all knew Por was gonna be the bottom in their ship. (Hate stereotypes and love switches but usually when one is taller and bulkier, 9 out of 10 times they're the top) Por is also doing so well though, Qin is such black cat vibes and paired with Duang's golden retriever energy, it's a dynamic I am such a sucker for, their shower scene was to die for. Side characters....Jaime and Mars, I like it but the English is kinda cringe sometimes, no hate but I just chuckle when I hear it. And even though I do like them, not enough time is being given to them for me to fully and truly care much about them. I'm waaay more curious about Tong and Pae. Like Pae is for real cat-fishing Tong and we're getting nothing from that storyline??!! Like, when is Tong gonna find out? Is he gonna be upset that it's a guy, not a girl? Does Pae have feelings for him or is it just to help out Duang? How did they get in contact with each other in the first place anyways? I have so many questions....!
You know, after watching the trailer and the special I have to say that having the cast change was for the best. Although I hate how OhmLeng were bullied out of their ship, I don't think this would have been a good series for them. Leng is a good actor for sure but waay too green for a more grown up role like Raffy, and even though Ohm has been in a lot of BLs I don't think he has the personality for Rome, (talented though he may be) especially if he really needs to be super connected to his partner. Aou and Boom have been together for a long time and you can see how comfortable they are together, how their kisses aren't awkward, it's mature and lustful. I just know they're gonna kill this role and it was about time they got to show off their acting chops and stop being relegated to the guest star couple. I think OhmLeng would have been rather a weak point in a series of couples whose ships are a lot more established than theirs was at the time, they would have been overwhelmed by the stronger chemistries. (if they were still together they would have been better off in a series with just them or one other couple, where they could shine rather than sharing, I wish better things for them both in the future)
The way that I feel like Keng and Namping could play Chen Li and Xiao Zhi in a Thai adaptation, I want it sooo bad. I feel like if they filmed in a more mountain area or something there would be some beautiful Thai shots. Plus it could really add a lot more without having to worry about censorship.
As someone who read the webtoon years and years ago, I'll admit my memory on this isn't too great but I still remember enough and this....well, it's not bad but it's not great. Maybe this might sound ageist but the actors just feel waay too old to be playing these characters. This really would have suited a younger group of actors in their mid twenties, not ones almost in their forties, ones who could kind of get away with the charming stupidity of kdrama logic and doing dumb things, cos you know, they're clearly young and dumb. Oh Yeon Seo and Choi Jin Hyuk just....don't feel like they're pulling off that fresh and impulsive vibe that the story needs, maybe if they had been paired together for a more mature drama instead.... (Also OYS has an extremely tiny face and she is DROWNING in that hairstyle, like it is literally weighing her down.) I'm not a stickler for "it has to be the exact same as the webtoon" cos Business Proposal changed quite a bit as well but the changes done here were just boring and unnecessary and even though this is only 12 eps, I don't think it's gonna get more exciting.
I love, love this series. It's so funny and has been the highlight of my Saturdays and I've seriously enjoyed how viral it went with everyone doing scenes from it. That said, I still have a few complaints. I mistakenly thought this series was going to be 12 eps but when I saw it was only 10 I was shocked. Nothing happened in this series. Like, the side characters that had so much potential were just atrociously squandered. Aran and Tawan, they were this messy, toxic couple that I really wanted to see either part ways amicably after realizing they weren't good for each other or to see Tawan on his knees begging for a second chance. But they were barely in here and they quite frankly didn't even need to be here with what little they were given, it was an insult to the talent and chemistry that is PerthSanta and even though they were barely in it, they took up valuable plot time. Tee's character Tatsuya was sooo disappointing. Like how can GMMTV be so bad at giving most of their series actual conflict? He should have shown up way earlier and been an actual threat to Peach. They built up Thee's mafia life as being so dangerous and being constantly surrounded by enemies but the one and only time that Peach was in trouble it was someone from HIS life, not Thee's. I wish they had Tatsuya kidnap Peach to threaten Thee (instead of having him idiotically going after Thee ON HIS OWN with NO guards! Who does that?) And then had a big fight with Thee that leaves Peach finally seeing with his own eyes how dangerous Thee's world actually is for him and wanting to take a step back cos he's scared. It would have made his resolve to learn guns and fighting a lot more impactful cos he wants to overcome his now legitimate fear and still be with Thee. I wish they had committed to making Rome more of a fixture in Mok's life, like really shown how conflicted he felt with his loyalty to Thee, a friend and a boss he has to potentially die for, and his love for someone as forbidden as Rome. In which case, the dad should honestly have been a bigger obstacle. It was cute how supportive he was but if Tatsuya wasn't going to be the big bad, then father should have been. All in all, it's fun, I enjoy it, I'll absolutely watch it again for laughs but it left me seriously wanting at certain points.
Maybe it's just me but since I've been watching so many BLs that have in your face romance and sex (heated rivalry currently😜) I guess I really enjoyed watching something that was slow, sensual and where body language, chemistry and the longing in their eyes have to do most of the work for them as opposed to an NC scene. Not to mention I've come to expect this kind of slowness from JBLs since they are notoriously slow, sometimes to the point that I actually lose interest so in that regard I'm glad it was a movie and not a series cos that would have made it even slower. Not to mention I watch so many censored CBLs that stuff like slow burns hardly bother me, in fact I think it makes a story better sometimes because you actually have to focus on other things and let your imagination sometimes fill in the blanks. Especially with the ending, which I know some people are a bit disappointed in, but to me I think it's the perfect open ending, it leaves it to the viewers to happily imagine what comes next for these beautiful characters and you can then create any future for them that you like. A bit like fanfiction really. A trip to Cuba with them dancing alone on the beach....damn, now I want them doing a special 😂 Either way, I super enjoyed this and I can't wait to watch it again.
OMG! Did no one else notice that the victims house in the beginning was Porsche's house? That was so freaking funny, love it when I recognize reused houses. Also why am I watching this?? I don't like horror😂 I guess it speaks to how well it's done that I'm still here and watching it. Like, I need to find out what happened with Sey and Darin and I want to see King get brutally eaten by a ghost, I'm sure the actor is great but I so wanna punch him. Also, my boy Thup, stop telling people you can see ghosts and get some damn legal aide in there with you when these officers are questioning you. Also I don't think it's wrong of Thup to doubt Singha. They've known each other like 3 days and jump off a cliff cos you said so kind of trust is just supposed to magically be there? Nah-uh, nope, I would need waaayy more than that. But the sizzling chemistry between them, whew, they way that they were staring at each other was amazing. I really like this drama, it really makes Fridays fun, and tomorrow Me and Thee is coming out. The weekends are just the absolute best.
This episode was awesome, so intriguing and it's only the 2nd one. Honestly, politics are harsh, like it's been literally just one day and they're already pressuring Singha to close the case. Like, at least wait a week before you decide to call in backup! Who the hell solves a serial killing case in 24 hours? King has a schmuck face that I want to punch (no hate to the actor of course) Also, I'm hoping it's a translation issue but it really bugged me that they kept referring to a transwomen as a man, that's not right. Other than that, this series is so freaking good. It's literal torture waiting until next Friday. Pavel is so freaking hot, I can't get over it. Pitbabe was fine and all but he just seems...manlier here. Pooh is adorable but I hope they get into his character a bit more, I want to see more from him other than following Singha around like a puppy.
Well, this was way better than I thought it would be! I usually avoid horror genres at all costs so I told myself even if I love PoohPavel, if it creeped me out too much I wouldn't continue. I mean...it did kinda creep me out but I think I'll stick around for awhile. One of the things I really like about Thai horror or I guess Asian horror, is how they weave their culture, lore and superstitions into the stories so it's not your average jump-scare but a really rich blend of supernatural elements. Pooh has definitely gotten better and his chemistry with Pavel is fire as always. I have to say I'm a sucker for the weak top and muscled bottom trope and I'm glad they're sticking with it. So often you have the smaller, thinner one be the bottom but not here and I just love that they didn't ever go the stereotypical route with them or change the position now that PitBabe is done. I look forward to the next episode, I think Thailand should definitely focus on adapting more of their books to series, as we saw with Khemjira, it really works when you have a popular blueprint on what to make.
I absolutely loved this. 10/10 all the way. I usually start to lose interest in a lot of shows midway but this kept me engaged and coming back for more every week. I'm so sad this is over and my weekends are going to be dreadfully empty for a while. I need KengNamping to act in another show stat!! That we'll have to wait god knows how long for Magic Lover is a travesty. The music was exquisite, there wasn't a single song that I disliked and i'll be listening to the whole playlist for a while now to ease the sadness. Haaa....I'll really miss this show. I feel like it's a really sad reality that you don't get that many good BLs anymore and when one really hits the mark and sets such a huge standard it takes forever for a new one to try to meet that standard. I really hope that companies start paying attention to what the fans clearly like and start putting in more effort with their productions.
Only 20? They are literally old enough to become uni students lol 😂 you act like they are playing dads or business…
I know they're old enough in real life. That was never the point. I just meant in terms of acting skills. They're very talented obviously but MuTeLuv was very short so they didn't have to really put forth a lot of emotion. I have no doubt they'll do well, just thought they should have done a bit more first. Kinda wish their MTL segment was longer so they could have flexed their acting chops more.
Nah, it’s fine. Most university students nowadays are just bigger high schoolers. While there are still plenty…
I more mean in terms of skills and experience. In Bad Buddy OhmNanon were kinda in the same age group that SeaKeen are with this series but I felt like they could pull it off. They were young and silly but they looked the part of uni students. Because both actors had been around for so long and there was a build up to uni roles it felt a bit more natural. But yes, uni is just a step from high school so I'm sure they'll do well. I really hope they go far with their pairing
Maybe it's just me but I feel like Sea and Keen just don't look ready for university roles yet. They're both only 20 and they're such newbies that it just doesn't feel like they have the experience to pull it off yet. While I'm not the most fond of high school dramas there have been plenty of good ones (Boys in love, my school president, high school frenemy and Eclipse if you want a more serious school vibe) I just think they should have done a school drama, waited a bit and then moved onto uni roles. Their chemistry is great and they were so good in MuTeLuv but I feel like their pairing needs a bit more nurturing before they're put in more adult roles. It feels like GMMTV is so obsessed with ushering in the new gen of BL boys that they're not giving space to the already existing ones that have forged their ships over the span of years and are only just getting recognition or having their ships changed cos it didn't get enough attention. That said, I do have high hopes and I am looking forward to this since I enjoyed them so much in MTL.
But I did like seeing Qin open up more and more, especially with how affectionate he is with Duang. Their little kisses were so cute and lovely.
