This episode was weird. Not bad, but sadly, not that good either.

Patts is apparently head over heels for Tai, but didn't tell his ex-girlfriend to leave him alone then and now let her kiss him for at least 10 seconds with him closind his eyes and everything instead of pushing her away immediately. I have flashbacks of Love Mechanics.

Tai is apparently head over heels for Patts and had sex with him (yes, it counts as sex for me), but his smile to Lomfon when he was videotaping him can be interpreted either way - as very, very friendly or romantic. No wonder Lomfon thinks he has a chance.

Make it make sense, plz.

Two interlopers at the same time is one too many, especially when we know from the trailer there will be another one-sided kiss between Lomfon and Tai. So they'll probably get rid of the ex-girlfriend first before concentrating on Lomfon, which means the love square will drag and drag, probably until the end of the series or shortly before. To be honest, I'm slightly disappointed.

On the positive note, there was only one flashbacks in this episode and I liked the scene with Tien and Lomfon under the stars, it was by far the best part of the episode for me. The making up session between Patts and Tai was hot, too. ;) And I really like them hinting at a romance between Bow and Khun, go girls!

Tien has established himself as my favourite character and this episode cemented this. Plz don't hurt him.

It was stated that Tai can hear his soulmate talking to him since his 20-th birthday, the same day his parents announced their divorce. He has said many times that he's been ignoring his soulmate and hasn't been replying to him for 2 years, so he has to be 22.

Tien is in his second year at university, it was said in episode 1, so he has to be 19 or 20.

I have a cat myself and I don't understand why Tai's door is closed all the time exactly because of the cat. Since I have a cat, I've forgotten about closed doors in my appartment. This makes indeed no sense.

Maybe one of his other brothers we hear about but never see takes care of the cat, if Tai's bothered to let them know about it? It was so weird that Tien didn't know about his brother adopting a cat. It was the very first thing I did after I got mine - let the entire family know about this glorious news. ;)

Nope, no translations. I saw the spoiler somewhere on TikTok and checked it myself using Google Translator. The names of the brothers (one means Northern Lights, the other one Southern Lights) matched so I consider the spoiler to be correct. No idea whether it will be included in the series, though. We barely saw the other two brothers.

Here the link to both books: https://www.naiin.com/writer/050399

BTW, Saengtien is supposed to mean "Candle Light".

Here's a very nice summary of all names and what they mean: https://www.tumblr.com/recentadultburnout/719295565702316032/la-pluie-the-series

If the spoiler I've seen is true, the oldest brother does indeed have a boyfriend. La Pluie is the second book in the series, the other book is about the oldest brother and his story.

I'd take anything (Patts and Tai breaking up for good, Tien and Lomfon ending up really hating each other, etc.), but not them ruining the brothers' relationship because of Lomfon. I like Lomfon, but he's not worth this. Nothing is worth destroying Tai and Tien's bond. I refuse to accept that this is a possibility at all. It doesn't suit Tien's character at all.

This is actually a pretty good series. The highschool couple has had a good enemies-to-sort-of-friends development so far and they are also doing a very good job with showing the detoriation of the relationship of the established couple and Thana's gradual fall from grace.

So far, that supernatural aspect is not needed at all and the creepy lady is the only thing I don't enjoy.

Tai reading a Nora Roberts book in bed is such a mood. I'm starting to think that him being unable to accept his parents' divorce might be because he's reading way too many such books. ;)

The main couple have amazing chemistry and know how to kiss, but the second couple have slowly taken over for me. I just think their SL is more interesting and taken separately, Tien and Lomfon are more compelling characters - Tien with his crazy energy who's generally wearing his heart and feelings on his sleeve and Lomfon with his calm, composed nature who can hide his feelings very well. Although, as it seems, he won't be hiding his crush on Tai, at least not to Tien.

Plz don't drag the love square for more than 3 episodes, I want it to be finished by episode 9. And what about Patts' ex-girlfriend? Is she going to appear there as well? How many interlopers are going to try to come between Tai and Patts? Only Lomfon or only the ex would've been enough.

And OMG, I knew that key chain is important, they specifically showed Lomfon playing with it in episode 1.

I have to compliment whoever did the casting, all actors are fantastic.

I'm officially more interested in the second couple and I hope the love square will be finished by episode 9 and they won't drag it for longer.

Honestly, from the GMMTV 2022 line-up I was the least interested in this one. The mock trailer didn't appeal to me at all and I never expected to like this.

I was so wrong. So really, really wrong. If the quality and the story stay the same, it will turn into one of my favourites ever. I absolutely love it!

The new preview for tomorrow is up and I honestly can't wait.

It seems the mains will kiss again and go even further and there was a shot of Lomfon caressing Tien's hair while Tien's sleeping... ☺ It's so rare for me to be excited about both couples equally, but here we go.

OMG Pat and Pran, my loves, you've owned me since I saw your story and you still own me. I'm so overwhelmed to see them again. Bad Buddy was the first BL I ever watched thanks to a reaction video and these two have my heart, forever and always. I didn't realise how much I've missed them, but the magic is still there for me.

I really enjoyed the first episode and can't wait for more!

No idea. For me, it wouldn't make sense for Tien to accept Lomfon considering the circumstances as they are now. No one who has even a tiny bit self-respect would accept to be the second choice after their brother of all people. Plz don't do that, it would ruin the show for me completely. I love Tien and he deserves better.

There are still 7 episodes to go, though, so hopefully things are not as they seem. The preview for next week gave me an idea: maybe Lomfon would develop feelings for both brothers and will decide to pursue Tai because he thinks they have so much in common, unlike with Tien?

Yes, definitely. Tien's all talk, but he doesn't have a very high self-esteem from what we've seen so far. The lines "I exist therefore I get complains" and "Everyone's targeting me. Yet here I stand." are exemplary. He will think he has no chance against his perfect brother. Additionally, he loves Tai very much and would not stay in his way if Tai would choose Lomfon, I'm pretty sure about it.

So it seems we'll be getting the lovey-dovey moments now before Lomfon and Nara start causing problems between Patts and Tai. Basically, it looks like the struggle for them will be to stay together after the initial bliss has passed.

Patts should've told Nara to back off and that he doesn't want her back and Tai should listen to Bow, she was right about Lomfon.

I can't help but feel very sorry for Tien, he'll get really hurt, because how could he compare to his brother whom he considers perfect? My guess is that he won't say anything more than he already has told Tai to anyone else and suffer in silence. For the life of me I still can't figure out how Tien and Lomfon would end up together. Accepting someone only because your brother has rejected him doesn't look very healthy to me, no matter your feelings for that person. The struggle here will be coming together, unlike with the main couple.

The cat is still the star of the show and I adore the brothers, more than their love interests to be honest.

I adore these two brothers, their scenes are gold every. single. time.

Wait, why does the countdown say the next episode is in two weeks? Plz no, I want to cry. Plz someone tell me it's a mistake and we don't have to wait two weeks for ep. 7. :(

I didn't expect the twist at the end at all and I would really like to understand why Pat agreed to it. While I get why he would think Jeng is out of reach for obvious reasons, I didn't get the vibe that he was ready to date Put again or was that much into him.

I have to compliment whoever styled Pat for the date with Put, he looked very good.

I found the scenes with Kong too long, although I got why they were necessary.

It's up!

It releases on YouTube always at 07:30 pm GMT+1, so it makes sense it's still hidden, 25 more minutes to go.

I swear, can these brothers get any cuter? The one is absolutely adorable in his lovey-dovey state, the other one in his obliviousness.

This episode was so sweet, I melted. More, plz!
