I guess this is going to be satirical slash parody of the BL world. Which I am here for...so I guess the crazy sound effects is another tool used to shade other BLs and their penchant for silly and often weird sound effects even in moments not needed. Every element in this first episode was used to poke fun at the ways that BL dramas/books/shows portray some toxic and weird behaviors/actions. I do hope it keeps in this manner as it will make it refreshing.
yeah I saw that it will premier for international fans on the 25th
It's what was being shared. I am not sure if that is correct. I also follow several BL sites that have calendars and they put this drama on the 25th as well.
It was a good try, but the team didn't know how to handle crime/investigation and it became messy/cheesy.
That was the only let down for me as well, but I still enjoyed the rest of it. I took it for what it was meant to be and hopefully this signals a change in the BL market for more crime/action/mystery dramas. I still appreciated what they tried to do.
Question for the people who read the novel :) Is the killer in the series the same person as in the novel?
According to those who gave us hints and spoilers from the book, the only kept one person as the killer (it was Rung and Pued in the novel, but here it is only Rung)
It's not that people who're uncomfortable with that scene think it was romanticised or passed off as acceptable…
I thank you for your comment. I am someone who works in the criminal justice field and I know when something is criminal or wrong when I see it even if it may be "normal" in some cultures. I am not discussing cultural norms here. I am merely pointing out that those who appear disgusted with the scenes aren't looking at the bigger picture which is that the behavior was ADDRESSED by the show. If it had been romanticized or normalized it would be a problem, no matter how okay it is in some cultures. The characters (all of them even the villagers) reacted in an ashamed manner which says that they knew it was WRONG to be peeping in on these two having intimacy. If the villagers and Phupah had shrugged the scene off and they continued doing what they were doing, then yes it would have been a disgusting morally and criminal act. Also, I read some of the comments and some are from people who have given a pass on some real bad behaviors in other shows, but some how they are offended by this...just makes no sense to me the level of pearl clutching some people do about certain things but not others.
Holy Hell what the heck happened in this page yesterday?! That peeping scene was addressed as being "wrong" by Phupah making sure those men left. It wasn't made to be "romantic" or "acceptable behavior"
Honestly, like Tian I wasn't even sure what the heck the howling night meant (and trust me I've had heard more vague ways to describe the night before the wedding as I am nearing 40 years old) so like him I was curious. I honestly thought it had something to do with the illegal stuff happening in the forest--maybe poachers stealing animals. When the scene came on I was like...OOOOH it's a peeping into the cabin of the newly weds...sure the action of peeping is both gross/morally wrong and also can be criminal, but to put it context with the drama itself....it appears that this is something expected of some of the villagers, but it's also something that seems to be addressed by those patroling the village to ensure safety. That's why those villagers reacted the way they did when they got caught. They knew it was wrong and left quickly.
I'm baffled as to how this scene got such a lengthy discussion, yet some other dramas with real disgusting/criminal behaviors are praised...it's interesting the way people can view one scene and interpret it in so many ways.
A good story and still interesting, my interest doesn't lessen since the beginning.And I think that Khaotung Thanawat…
Khaotung is a good actor. He was one of the only saving graces of 2gether (along with Mike, Toptap and Gunsmile) so I am so happy he is getting to shine a bit more here. He really got screwed with TonhonChonlatee because of the horrible script/directing. I wish to see him more in good series.
Okay now I am a bit nervous....There was so much forshawdowing in this episode ...but LOVE LOVE LOVE the pacing! and a big THANK YOU for making it clear about Phupah and Torfun. I mean it was clear as day to me when I watched the first episode, but some people may not understand it due to his stoic nature. But glad that the story made it clear right away that he is not into Torfun in a romantic way.
I did a little research on heart trasplant and it seems the highest a person can live is 5 years but if you are…
It all depends on the individual. Their age, their level of overall health etc. The longest a person has lived after a transplant was 34 years and it was a world record holder. So, he can live over 30 years if he takes care of himself.
