I wish that the script could have been 75% better. Sigh. I hope that the next series, featuring Chap and Green will be better than this one.

He certainly did, and it was too funny. Ze Shou is also very observant, whenever it comes to his "friend" Le Gong. He's also very touchy feely, and ramps up the affection, whenever Le Gong attempts to avoid him. Once Ze Shou actually realizes, and accepts his true feelings, Le Gong will not know how to react.

This series looks like fun, and the lead actor, Sota Ryosuke reminds me of both Mean and Plan, aka Tin and Can from the Thai BL series "Love By Chance".

GMMTV really loves using Leo and Leon's house from "Don't Say No", and I think it's the same actress that portrayed those two characters Mom in the series. Here she is again, being a supportive, and loving Mom to her child.

But, I guess that it wasn't expected for viewers to pick up on those responses from Lian, and not see his behavior, and actions as troubling. We were just supposed to vibe off on how hot, cute, adorable, sexy, and "meant to be" between him and Kuea.

New fandom name. Now called "ZonZon"

"I keep recalling that Lian actually told him he could do what he wanted so long as he behaved. He actually fucking said that. I heard him. And yet I still can't quite believe it."

It was a scene, in either the 2nd or 3rd episode. I literally raised up my hands, and shook my head in disbelief.

"Allow, naughty, behave!" This is his fiancé, he is interacting with, and not his parent?!

When they are "allowed" to be together.

You're welcome. I will always continue to wish that there was more to this series, because I know if I had been a fan of the novel, and this was the result, I would be pissed.

Which results in the lack of interest in those two particular characters, as we have seen in this thread, with some of the posted comments about them.

"....its weird that their "relationship" is based on fear and guilty."

Agreed, and for me, that the two more focused on pairings in this show, consist of having the status of their current relationships, be based on, lack of communication, mistrust, dishonesty, fear, and guilt, isn't something that can be dismissed, due to "other series being more toxic than this one in the past"! At this point, I'm glad that viewers, who are watching this series, are continuing to point out the things, that are bothersome for them. It's better to acknowledge it, rather than just being wowed by the cutesy scenes.

"Just because this show isn't the worst one out there doesn't mean any negative opinions it garners are "unnecessary"."

Don't forget, "deep"!!

"Many comments say they got bored while the show is very entertaining and the love story building is one of the best, it just shows that without toxic actions and storylines, these BL fans are bored, which highlight what they are really looking for in a BL series.
These fans are problematic, and I'm glad this show is calling them out."

Ding. Ding. Ding. Thank you for pointing out, what some BL viewers, actually do find exciting, and intriguing for them. It is all the toxic parts of BL. The horrible tropes that are written, and drawn in the yaoi, and manwhas, that get adapted for TV series.

Nuea will probably saveur that moment. 😉

That special was really fun. I liked seeing the actors, being able to "swap" roles, even with it just being for fun. Barcode is just absolutely adorable, and I love how his older fellow actors, look after him.

"OMG this kid, he is no damsel in distress. He knows how to play the game well when it comes to Nuea! Not like Nuea isn't also using manipulative traits to get what he wants from Toh, but it is refreshing to see that Toh is more than just some geeky "bottom" and he actually has control of the relationship and is an equal partner to Nuea."

Hallelujah!! Another refreshing thing that's amazing to note about Toh's character. He's an active, willing, and enthusiastic partner, in displaying sexual desire for Nuea, and is learning which buttons he can push, to turn him, and each other on.

In complete agreement with your post. Most of those "issues" are always pertaining to the characters of Jao, and Toh. Especially Toh, and it's just not only about his obessive, stalking behavior. It's about his looks, how he walks, talks, hell even how the character BREATHES bothers some viewers.

People have issues with how long it's taking for Jao to get over his fears, and concerns about Sky's attraction towards him. Someone, who has deep, long term issues with self-esteem, and self-image, are not going to change their view of themselves, instantly once someone else, professes interest in them romantically.

The situation with Daisy is interesting, because she's such a lovely, adorable, and funny (not to laugh at her, but to laugh with her) character, that viewers want to see her happy. She isn't viewed or seen as a joke, which helps to make the other "aunties" that are around her, to also not be seen or viewed as a joke.

I love how Nuea, Sky, and Intouch have been written for this TV adaption. They are emotionally open characters, not scared of pursuing their love interests, who also have the need to get confirmation that their love interests are also into them.

Well, if you didn't have that perspective, I am glad that you voiced your concerns about that scene, and I don't see your concerns as a "complaint". That's something that folks, should bring up and question, because it was an off-putting scene. When Sky explained (which he shouldn't have been put in that position to do so), why he had brought Jao to meet those "friends", those "friends" should have stopped their disbelief, and made them realize and acknowledge, that Sky had grown and changed from the person they new from before.

I also wondered how someone like Sky, could have friends like those, but then I realized that he was probably a totally different person in high school, and those "friends" kept expecting and seeing him as that version of the guy they knew back then. Sky probably thought that they would have been supportive of him, and his connection with Jao, since he brought him to meet them, but as those "friends" kept talking, and revealing their disbelief that someone like him, could ever be drawn towards Jao, he realized that he made a mistake. The only positive thing that came from that outing, was that their disbelief, made Jao realize that he finally needed to be honest to Sky and himself about his feelings for him.
