Aside from the problem with the subtitles, I found this film to be on the boring side even with the prolonged kissing and sex scenes which looked and sounded remarkably realistic. The dialogue between the various characters added little to the storyline and was prosaic.
Everything's been said concerning Po and Thame which I fully agree with. They make a gorgeous couple and William as Thame surely has a great career ahead of him, combining talent, looks and a lovely singing voice. I just want to say something about the rap contest in which Thame was about to come out second best until Dylan unexpectedly took over and slaughtered his arrogant opponent, deservedly so.
The subtitles are bad on youtube, because they're auto translated, giving us the absolute worst.But on other platforms…
Yes, the subtitles were pretty dreadful on YouTube. I don't know yet if successive episodes will be shown there but that combined with having to endure ads every few minutes is going to force to me find a different platform to watch this series.
"I've never been loved by my mother that's why I'm an asshole. 🥰"Shut it, Oh!Are those people on Tiktok and…
The brothers looked stunning in their tuxedos. And their English, particularly Meunfah. Wow! Why Meunfah and Teerak are still unsure of their love for each other at this point mystifies me, particularly after the lovely kissing scene.
This is far more lively and dramatic than AntiReset which I enjoyed and has a totally different vibe that adds to its entertainment value. It's good that we were offered three episodes to begin with as it allows one to get more into it and follow the character development. From spoilt out-of-control rich spoilt brat to a more self-controlled young man adjusting to having a humanoid bodyguard who pampers him while analysing him and his relationship with him, the physical aspects are becoming more pronounced. I like where this is heading for Bu Shi and his close friend.
The one thing Dr Kan didn't tell Tew when he was relating the final moments of his mother was she told him to take good care of Tew. I wonder if that would have made any difference to the outcome. Maybe not, as Tew is such a stickler for the law, despite the doctor's impassioned defence of euthanasia. So there he is, sitting next to Tew in his car with his wrists handcuffed. As there is a second book, there's a good chance we might get a second series or at least a movie-length special episode. Let's hope so.
This is the perfect romance for the holidays now upon us. Beautifully shot at a beachside hotel, the two characters as they got to know each seemed destined to become lovers but of course, they had to overcome various obstacles and situations before that could be achieved. It was done gently and without any unnecessary melodrama as we became increasingly invested in them. I enjoyed this. It was a pleasure to watch these two cute and intelligent guys navigate their way to personal happiness and for that it receives a warm recommendation.
The final episode was curiously low-key and tepid except for Jeed being put in her place and rebuffed by Noh and Yuri and the last few minutes while it managed to disappoint me in regard to the lack of kissing, nor has it got anything to do with their age. Going back to 2018 and the series 'Cause You're My Boy featuring Tee and Mork as the two schoolboy friends who become boyfriends where the kissing is frequent and passionate. Who can forget the scene in the ice rink when they snuggled under the cover of a small tent for a pash, thinking they were obscured from view, only to find out a security camera caught it leading them to be suspended? Apart from the accidental kiss between Noh and Earn, that was it; all the rest were cheek and forehead kisses. The final scene where Phun and Noh kiss after not kissing when they could have, with a glass door between them, is just a copout.
Otherwise, it was most enjoyable and the acting of all the kids was excellent. I was disappointed that Earn didn't find himself a boyfriend (whatever happened to Pete?) but at least he was compensated by being made president. The trajectory of Per and Win was the most dramatic and the steadfastness they displayed in the face of the objection of Win's father and how he stood up to him was admirable, but even so, he caved in, allowing them to spend time together in the camp, after which they vowed to be together once they finished all their studies. The other relationships didn't make much impression on me.
The last episode was so intense, especially the scene after Fuma rescued Kai, it brought tears to my eyes. Overall, I thought this adaptation, short as it was, did justice to the story as we know it. I wouldn't change anything.
So many lovely and delightful moments in Ep. 7. I didn't realise what Junior put under Sun's nose to inhale until I read that it was catnip. That brought out the animal in him! I do hope that Nat and Ton adopt Sun and Junior. This show is just wonderful, so original and a little bit quirky and among my top shows for 2024.
Just watched the whole thing in two instalments (1/60, 61/81) on Boys Love Factory and I quite enjoyed it, kept me engaged the whole time, good plot, the two boys - one cute, one handsome - have good chemistry and they kiss really well.
It's hard to tell whether the kiss was real or a dream. Clearly, though, Rak is embarrassed by it to the point he can't admit to himself it might have happened, hence the way he subsequently behaved. For his part, Fah comes across as being overly timid/cautious in his attempts to be more intimate with Rak, even as he encourages it. Babe, Rak's sister, I find objectionable, being overprotective and bossy. However, despite the awkwardness, Rak and Fah are falling for each other and soon I'm sure they'll be kissing to their heart's content.
What stands out in this story is how fragile the boys' feelings are - anything can set them off, and plenty does. Earn has an unexpected kiss with Noh, they discuss it afterwards, Phun appears, Noh runs off with him and Earn breaks down sobbing. Poor boy. But where's Pete, the boy who has a crush on him, which briefly appears to be reciprocated? I liked the final scene though, when Phun suddenly moves to sleep with Noh. The way they cuddled up together, Noh's head resting just below Phun's on his chest, is really sweet and emotionally satisfying.
