My wife doesn’t want me to take a concubine and I don’t even get to use a bang maid. What else is a guy supposed to do but go to a brothel and bring home an STD?
Seriously, the men in this family are trash.

Negative reviews by thai fans? There not being a third book is not necessarily a bad thing, they can make up their own story or the author gets more involved.

Has anyone heard them talk about season 3? How is it even possible for them to wrap everything up in just a couple of episodes??

His dad is legit stealing his snakes and is trying to force him into marriage with a(ny) woman and I consider that domineering behavior.

Looks like we fundamentally disagree on stuff. Anyways, I think this is a good point for me to stop here. It‘s been interesting comparing notes on different perspectives. Thanks for the exchange!

His right man hand told him to just force himself on WZW- CC dismissed the idea but he didn’t show outrage at the suggestion. The idea of being thought capeable of rape didn‘t faze him.

He almost did cross the line when WZW visited him at home and stopped himself just in time. He doesn’t get brownie points for that, that is the lowest requirement, really.

I understand CC has his fans defending him but that is no reason to not call out his shitty behavior.

A bigger guy telling you he might rape you is a threat. He intended to be considered a threat. Never mind if he would follow through, the threat stands. And if you believe most people wouldn‘t freeze in the doc‘s place, I am genuinly glad how you grew up. Looks like neither you nor anyone else you know has ever had any awful interaction with a guy. Because people freeze a lot, even at just getting catcalled.

Power=control, he is very into control and being in power. Him grabbing WZW is absolutely about calling the stakes in their relationship. Probably something something growing up with a domineering father.

And the thing is: would the doc believe he was in danger of getting raped? Obviously he was intimidated. Everyone would have been in his place.

Thanks for giving me a new headcanon about CC inflating his reputation. I had fanwanked it with them kinda looking out for guys into the sharing thing. Or who wanted to spend the night with CC in a roundabout way

Rape is usually about power- there are enough examples in Hollywood if you can stomach to look. So no, it isn’t out of the realm for CC to be a rapist and be high society at the same time.

Don‘t come to a comment section if you do not care for comments about the show! Is everyone supposed to click on a wall of spoiler tags because someone else has not started watching yet? Spoiler embargo used to be 24h to allow for timezone differences. A blanket expectation is nuts.

CC has no issues with scheming if he is kinda in control of it. As in, he knows the motive and recognizes the moves, and he is allowong it to go on. But when the real reason come out, things change. Basically, WSW managed to conceal the YueYue angle and CC is going to feel dumb about not having seen through it.

Not us all sharing the same braincell 🤣 but is truly has been too long

He is! And I kinda like him but he needs therapy and a hobby. And good friends.

It has been so long, I totally forgot about Sheng Yi‘s brother and was a bit confused about her clingy didi. But the poor kid has only ever known kindness from his sister so it makes sense he would glomp onto FL, fighting for her attention after being so long without and probably crushing on her, too.

I hope they don‘t turn him evil out of stupidity. His bio sister wasn’t the smartest tool in the shed, either. Just let him mature and find his own happiness.

It could have used more episodes to flesh out the story and the second couple some more. But I adore the superb communication skills demonstrated here, how soft they were for each other.

It wasn‘t dramatic or flashy. And it didn’t need to be to get its messages out. This is like a mug of hot chocolate, definitely a series to rewatch!

It is fun so far with proper scheming and plotting and smart leads.
I need her almost-husband to get his own HE, he is so righteous!
Amusing our ML like a puppy but he has potential if he survives long enough.

Charlie🤝Jeff🤝Kenta, sharing the same self-sacrificing braincell
Well, at least Kim managed to make Kenta ask for support. Seriously, why can’t the kiddos work together?

Alan, go get your sorry ass to the surgery, you will walk the very next day. No more mechanic work above shoulder level, though.

Pete: he should manage the gang working together! He has all the information but keeps them fractured!!

Willy is such a creepy character, the remote control bomb in him was galaxy brained. Watch him hug Tony in the end while going sploosh

This. They put the King and his boy through so much trauma it is unreal.

Male sexual abuse survivors really have it bad with the victim blaming. Willy is evil, Charlie better figure out his boyfriend is getting sexually abused right in front of him and punch Willy. Babe needs therapy stat.

It’s really obvious Babe and Jeff and Kenta are brothers. Hairebrained schemes and no communication skills.

Came here just for this. Their society would never accept him marrying the ex-concubine of his best friend. His parents would never accept her as first wife, especially if he is the heir (he might be the second son, though?). I do adore how they switched the tropes around with them but she isn’t just a servant.
