Even if I want to forget her "I believe I can change him", I will never be able to... girl, have you lost your last bits of common sense or what?

I agree that episode 29 is the weakest, I didn't have a problem with yesterday's, but today's was mostly just annoying. We knew Song Han was an asshole, just like we knew Miao An Su was stupid in the previous episode. I don't mind that the main couple has less screen time in these episodes, but I'm not too happy that the story of these two was stretched out so much.

Because of the difference of this "stupidity through naivety", I actually felt sorry for Ming, whereas in the case of An Su... I wouldn't have minded if she had been seriously hurt, just to understand how her actions affected others while she was playing the savior.
But in Ming's case, the man himself was different, they are still part of the great imperial conspiracy, but... he is just a spineless slug whose abdication of responsibility led to her death. When An Su's husband is literally a walking red flag, but no, "I can change him". You can just hurt people close to you, you can literally die when his paranoid brain gets something wrong again. No, we will save him. Шоб шо?

For a while I thought that the most annoying one because of her naivety, which makes her stupid, was Orchid from LBFAD at the beginning of the drama. But no, Miao An Su has surpassed her with her stupidity. I just don't have enough words to describe how worthless she is, how she is manipulated by everyone, how she paves the way for all kinds of villains to come after the person who cared about her. And how blind she is to her paranoid husband, literally turning a blind eye to all his bad things. Because he is a poor, unfortunate traumatized boy, and she is the savior. Ugh, incredibly annoying.

I haven't even watched the trailer, but the tiktok videos of it are giving me A Home Far Away vibes, so I'm intrigued.

Okay, I'm here because it's a cringe and the length of the episodes allows me to even enjoy it.

Shit! Who are these people? What's going on? Why am I here?

this is what I want to complain about😭
people don't like literally everything that is happening or could happen. they complain about why I literally love this series and how I've pissed off my friends, who have no idea what I'm talking about.
when I go to the comments section, I sometimes feel a little uncomfortable, because there is a lot of "disappointment", when on the contrary I felt pleasure from watching: everything moves smoothly, naturally, and since there are many different characters, the relationships between them are very different.

all the characters in this series are so dear to me. I will probably never be able to explain it properly. I realize that not everyone will understand it (here I refer to the fact that I myself cannot quite understand certain opinions of people and people's feedback about this series)

I can (and did) comment on a certain phrase you used, but I can't argue about this certain illogic. although I can think of cases of prioritizing one's own children over another of one's own children for oneself. but that would be an absolute "pulling the owl on the globe." I'm not the creator of the script or the novel (which I'm not even going to read), so I can't say what exactly was meant to be in it.
And yes, I can understand your certain dissatisfaction in a way, but at the same time my own attitude towards the series (and other reasons) make me wonder about it, like we're watching the same thing, but while I'm "I'd watch their misunderstandings for as many more episodes (please just less angst)", you're saying "they bloated the hell out of this series to stretch to 16 episodes, but then didn't address a major aspect of a major character".

*whispers* actually, I'm not so sure, but as far as I remember, that's how sex scenes are labeled, well, I do (English is not my native language, I don't know it very well, blah, blah, blah).
I'm very curious what exactly the creators of the series are trying to achieve with such cuts, the same goes for the ending of episode 10 with the kiss in Peem's room, when they make a certain cliffhanger and episode 11 starts with Phum leaving the room. these are probably my only problems with this series.
as far as I know, there are no other versions of the episode (people in X wrote that the iqiyi version is the same as the one on YouTube). and if this is really to draw extra attention to the series, then it's very sad. i like this series for its childishness, naivety and a certain calmness. it's just a comfortable series that I can watch when life is chaotic. and I will never tire of saying how much I love the "cat and dog" character dynamics and here I literally get it (the same sound effects).
so these scenes are a little bit out of context, and this cutting of them is a little bit bewildering.

for me, as a person who can take offense for a long time at things that will be trivial to everyone else (which is why I got into the habit of not showing that I'm offended, because I'll be ridiculed again) and a person whose mother prioritized work, for which I can't blame her, but I really wanted her presence in my life, the reason "oh now you're paying attention to me" is quite significant. and that's not a good thing, but we're not going to be that serious, are we?

but the way this issue (the episode and the series as a whole) will be perceived will depend on the person's views, experience, trauma, perhaps. what will seem ridiculous to one person will make a lot of sense to another, and the third will not even pay attention to it.

😭😭😭 okay, I forgot about the opened curtains..

well, it's not such an intrusive ad, let it be.

but I'm still thinking: Phum just got really hot (maybe uncomfortable?) or was it the nc that was cut?... (it feels like I have nothing to worry about anymore...)

This!

how sensitive both brothers are and how much they need the support of their bfs (who can stop me from generalizing and calling Peem Phum's boyfriend if they're not in a relationship? that's right, no one). "we are" finally made me cry. i congratulate myself on that (not that it's hard to be moved and the series has done it in many ways, but i haven't cried over it yet, except for the parallels between nlmg and futs).
and it's all about three things at once:
1. the sibling relationship:
"the moment he returned from abroad, i could still remember the look in his eyes clearly. it has remained my trauma until today."
"but luckily, Fang always called me, consoling me and keeping me company so I wouldn't cry despite such a big timezone difference."
"I think Phum already knows his brother loves him the most."
2. FangPhum have the most supportive people around them (and here I can write down how supportive their partners are, but I'm lazy, so I'll leave the phrases that are indicative for me personally):
"anyway, thank you for loving me, even when I'm not always adorable."
"thanks a lot. for staying by my side."
3. the topic of family:
"...because family can't always be our safe zone."
It reminded me of PB and Jeff with his "family is not everyone's safe zone."
like... yeah dudes, I know that very well and it's.. sad.

now...
this is episode 12 of 16 and isn't it funny that the second couple out of 4 got together in this episode while the other two couples act like they've been married for years without a defined relationship? I find it funny and I don't understand why people are mad about it...
the fact that Peem told Phum to try to win his heart when he knows perfectly well that Phum doesn't really need to do anything:
"from now on, you'll certainly be head over heels in love with me."
"haven't I fallen for you enough already, huh?"
and to me, it looks like a little (deserved) revenge for the beginning of their relationship. even if it wasn't intended that way, it's still cute (to me).
QToey and ChainPun are just so... 🥹🤲🏻

auntie with her 😉 for Phum was iconic, I love her.

I feel that Phum's problems with his father will come out sideways and angst. I wish it wasn't like in other PondPhuwin series, where angst was "grabbing the ass" in the last episode.

the only small issue I have is with the hotel scene. I was like... wait please... what's going on? how did we even get here? because it was so unexpected.
and after watching the preview for the next episode, I was like, "I don't understand anything, but it's very interesting."

It's so funny when people complain about more or less serious shows because they're bored, they don't understand anything, or they think the authors are too clever with the plot, or they don't notice the whole story, paying attention only to the little things/not paying attention to the little things, so the picture is not complete. And at the same time, people complain about light, entertaining shows that shouldn't be taken too seriously. ( at least the first episode and the preview for the next one do not hint at seriousness yet).
It's really funny to watch it all from the outside. Because I haven't watched Lita and I'm not even going to (although I wouldn't swear off), I'm not a fan of the actors, I just randomly watched the first episode. I was interested in it, it made me laugh, I liked it, because it's weird.

And there is nothing wrong with subjective evaluation of something. On platforms with the ability to rate/write reviews, there will always be works that are overrated for some and underrated for others. Just like the way the same things can attract someone's attention to a series, become a reason for liking it, and annoy other people.

(This doesn't negate the fact that I often don't understand whether I'm watching the same show with other people, why others take certain parts of the story too seriously/not seriously, etc. But I hope what I wanted to say is clear...)

Can I put in my five cents about Ray? Although why am I asking if I'm going to say something anyway... Doesn't the fact that Ray was in a "relationship" with Mew at a time when he already had feelings for Sand and they had a certain privileged relationship mean anything? Just like the fact that Ray did the same thing as Top...

Mew did bad things after he was injured. And yes, a bad thing done to him does not justify it. But can we notice the faults of all the friends of this company without blaming and hating one?

"It's romantic, it's sweet, it's fluff, it's domestic and yes, it's cringe" is literally what I fell in love with star and sky series for. in general, it would be cool if people stopped rushing to series just because they are simple, not much happens in them and they are weird/cringe.

This is my comfort series
The show is in that time: dudes can't talk with their mouths about their feelings for a few episodes

There were no traumatic things in this episode, so I'll say it again, the main reason I love this show is friendship, how different all the characters are and how much they complement each other.
I can agree that the couples don't really develop, the same things are repeated, just in different circumstances. But this is not a problem for me. In fact, I don't want this series to end so badly that I'm ready to endure the misunderstandings between the characters for a long time.
I don't even know what to say now, but... I love all the characters in this story so much. This is not the first and not the last series with such a theme that I liked/will like. But it means a lot to me.
And the number of little things you can notice in the behavior of each character towards each other... it warms my heart so much.

And the preview for the next episode makes me regret again that I decided to watch the ongoing, and not binge after all the episodes are out.

And... and... as a person who really enjoys this series, I don't understand so much negativity towards it...

I wanted to write a short review, because why not? But.. why we are here again...

"I'm not going to watch it" -> "okay, I'll put it on my list, maybe someday I'll be in the mood for it" -> "wow, it's actually not as bad as I thought".

The other series give me a "dream friendship" to a greater or lesser extent, only friends gives me the "friendship" I've experienced. They are toxic, sometimes nasty, treat each other terribly, sometimes take advantage of each other. It would seem that friends are close people you can trust, but no, if you do, you will regret it. It's so familiar.

I would like to highlight a few points:
1. Mew - my child did not disappoint from the first appearance on the screen until the last minutes of the series. Sometimes he made me angry, but he never disappointed. I paid attention to him because of his certain innocence in this company, his cute face (I really can't help it sometimes, I like cute people). And it was interesting to watch him change. And Mew in the revenge phase is just gorgeous.
2. SandRay... a typical toxic couple? I really like Ray and Sand as individual characters and yes, I like them as a couple. The fact that they became each other's salvation, as if there wasn't enough toxicity between them without that. "How could Sand stay with Ray after everything he did/said to him?" Well, who the hell knows, people often stay after a lot of shit is thrown at them for certain reasons, as long as they have the patience for it. Sand be like "I can fix him". And it works probably because of the right person at the right time. And also because it's a series. In real life, it's many times more complicated. And Ray is my second child in this series. I saw somewhere that Ray is mostly defended because he was played by Khaotung and if it was another actor, the character would be perceived differently... who knows, we'll never know. But for me... there are a few types of characters that I want to hide in my pocket from the world, and in this case it's... "I see myself in him". It's so easy to hate yourself. And it's just as easy to pity the characters for what you hate yourself for. I'm not sure about the accuracy of the quote, I watched it in my native language and didn't take screenshots with English subtitles: "If I die, I won't be a burden to anyone else, right?"
3. Nick puts self-love first in the end! I'm so proud of him.
4. I'm glad Ton stayed the way he was. Sleeping with anything that breathes isn't gross, people are different. I like how Nick told him not to be someone he's not, because nothing good would come of it. The other things he did were disgusting and it's good that it wasn't just forgiven. It was a little sad when Atom slandered Ton, like he did a lot of shit, but he never forced anyone to do anything. But he ruined his reputation so much that nobody believed him.
5. How Top tried to get a second chance. And Mew with "forgive but don't forget". It's cool that they ended up talking a lot about their relationship.
6. The fact that all the characters did something bad, none of them are white and fluffy. Thank you!
7. While all the guys in the show were kissing/shagging, the cute lesbians were cute lesbians... I don't know how I feel about that, it just stood out in my memory.
8. Why was there a Boeing there?😭
