"I doubt much consideration goes into the actual content, which is stated as what is being depicted."

Agreed. It's ridiculous that some folks are upset about the infidelity issues, when that is one of the themes to this series. It's been clear from the very first episode. At least with this series, the screenwriters, director and producers didn't have to focus on not upsetting different fandoms with what their script is based on.

This series is really cute, and I love just how supportive Feuang's crew is being regarding his interest in Krom.

I am also enjoying the fangirl bits in this series. We cannot say that none of what we are seeing isn't true to life regarding fandoms. This is the fun that is posted about all the time. The shared experience.

Hmm... not too bad for a first episode. I am glad that they tuned down the usual Thai background sounds from their flashback scenes during their high school years.

Achi knows exactly what he's doing when he calls Ji "Butcher" all the time.

Ki's eyes tracked the hottie Kambee from the moment he saw him enter the room. Nice setup for the second couple.

Only 8 episodes. So hopefully we won't get unnecessary filler characters/storylines that won't be beneficial to the plot of Achi and Ji finally getting together.

That hazy sheen filter is a bit much.

Sadly, I think the main demographic of BLs (specifically Thai ones) would probably find the idea of "slice of life living the LGBT life" as extremely "dull and boring". They want the fantasy of every character being rich, young, hot, gorgeous, with this exciting and non- boring life.

"I have to agree that I believe their “ship” has come it’s fruition… especially when it comes to BL’s. I feel they are too old to play college students and their chemistry is so solid that they could realistically play a married gay couple with ease. Now that’s a drama I would sign up for!"

I think that could be something for many BLs to focus on. The everyday life of an older married gay pairing, like Japan's successful "What Did You Eat Yesterday" trilogy series. What happens after they get together? How do they go about sharing their lives together?

That could be something for these writers to get interested in!

This past weekend, BL Twitter had this funny meme about "You are a BL Fan if...." and this new series first episode had almost every trope that you could find in other older, and sadly current BLs.

Those horrible background sounds. Squek! Blip! Bloop!

They seriously couldn't cast younger actors for the flashback high school scenes?!

It's one thing to ask the audience to stretch our imaginations and accept that Kimmon's supposedly portraying a 22 year old college senior, but to have him in those blue shorts?!
😃 😀 😄

I will pass on this one, and continue with "City Of Stars".

They made sure to fit in as much product placement ads in between the awkward group scenes, and the foot/sex scenes.

It's nice to see that Dew and Tor are comfortable in being able to showcase the mutual love, need, and desire that Him and Nail have for one another, but the script was really lacking.

Hilarious (bloop)!

Yup. For me, it's clear that the director just lost any interest in the overall production with each new episode. I hope that the actors got paid, because they can only do so much with subpar material in the script.

Just a wonderful series. A terrific and strong start for KBLs in 2024.

I am absolutely loving this series.

Night is constantly running from what and who he wants.
He's lucky that he has Namwan and Dream still wanting to be apart of his life, because they both have taken his feelings into consideration over their own.

The whole thing about Night never ever mentioning about his older brother Day to Dream is absolutely absurd. Not one of their teachers in high school never talked about Night's older brother? Especially since Night was some mediocre student, during their high school years. Night's father never spoke about Day in front of Dream?

Wow!

MFlow's casting agent has a great eye for finding very physically attractive talent.

Frame and Ryan are lovely together as a professional acting pairing.

Brilliant. I am a total stan for Japanese BLs.
Wow. Just amazing. Abe Aran and Akutsu Nichika were brilliant as Akafuji and Aoyagi. Now, I want to read the anime.

How Akafuji realized that he fell in love with the actual real individual that is Aoyagi. Not the actor. Not the characters he portrays. Not the persona that is featured in magazine articles, interviews, and clips. The real person.

While Aoyagi opened up to knowing who he is, as a "regular" person.

I am going to watch it again.

I love that both of the managers aren't trying to discourage Akafuji and Aoyama from being close. Murasaki's worried that Akafuji might get rejected, be heartbroken and not be able to do his best throughout the rest of the series production. While Oshima feels like Aoyama will come out of his self-inclosed shell, and blossom with Akafuji's encouragement, focus, and attention towards him.

Japan has truly given me delightfully interesting BLs throughout 2023.

It is troublesome to me that Namwan is purposely refusing to see how Night hasn't at all demonstrated any physical/sexual attraction towards her, while she's still using her "friendship" connection with Dream to try and "help" her to get closer to him. Even Dream's friends, Zone and Khun are advising him to put his own interests first before anyone else.

I guess we're supposed to feel for Namwan, but I don't. She clearly knows that Night doesn’t see her as anything more than just a very good friend.

When Kenji told Shiro that he didn't want to be adopted (like the older male couple from the previous season), due to hoping that some day, in their lifetime, that he would be his husband, that's when I started to cry. Shiro, ever the practical person, needs to be sure that Kenji's, his love is taken care of financially, because Japan still doesn’t legally allow same sex marriages.

It's just too sad that with this Thai BL, they cannot seem to be able to recreate the same OTT humor that works in most Japanese BLs. I can see what the director, and screenwriters were attempting to do in this adaption of the novel, but they sadly went overboard with everything.


🤔

Fire's Mom is just too much. How is her of age son supposed to show her that he's an adult, when she's constantly controlling and scolding him as if he's still a 10 year old naughty child?!
