So far, I'm convinced and the series meets my expectations, which were pretty high, I've been waiting for them since the teaser. I didn't expect the first episode to be that action-filled, but I liked it very much. My theory is that the Mr. Dika Ayan was asking about is his uncle who was driven to suicide by someone in the school. Also, my theory is that one of the students is causing the accidents - maybe the wanna-be-prefect, but it might be one of the three prefects themselves.

I expected to like the character of Akk more, but I was proven wrong, because Ayan's the really interesting character here. The way Akk keeps following him around borders on harassment, it's all he's done for the entire episode. No wonder Ayan is flirting so much, he has to find a way to deal with it.

I think I'm going to like both couples. I saw Neo and Louis in FUTS and wasn't impressed (with the couple, not with the actors) , but I like them here so far. Akk and Ayan make a great-looking couple and have chemistry and I hope to see some development in Akk's character soon, because right now, I think Ayan's flirting is a defense mechanism in order to deal with being followed all the time.

I'm here for the fluff, they've suffered enough! I'd take an entire episode of them being lovey-dovey with each other and won't get bored.

The more Friday's approaching the more nervous I get. This series and Never Let Me Go (which still hasn't started filming) were the only gmmtv series that caught my eye when the teasers were released last year. Please, please, be good, I've been waiting for so long!

There is a second official ep. 10 preview (sweet version <3): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDqkF8-HdHY

The funny thing is that Vee's cheating was never acknowledged, well, except by Mark and Vee themselves. Ploy found out about MarkVee, but she never found out Vee was cheating on her just like she was cheating on him before she suggested they take a break from each other. Well, there's still one episode left and maybe it will get acknowledged, but I'm not holding my breath.

Unfortunately, no, I just remember seeing on Twitter that the actors were in workshop a couple of months ago, so maybe after 21 Days Theory has aired?

It's not just bad, it's boring to death, and the episodes are looooong. But I'm still watching it.

It were Vee's older brother and Kamphan, Mark's friend. They met in episode 7, during Vee's accident, and are supposed to get an episode for themselves: https://kisskh.at/722565-call-my-name

The first episode of this was the cuteness itself personified. :)

IA, I like this series better than I expected, and I didn't expect much after the first teaser. I like the cinematography, the atmosphere, the colours, the softness, the cuteness and the slower pace. Yes, there's barely any plot, but it doesn't bother me for some reason. I also like the romance well enough, it's a nice change to see the leads being friendly from the beginning and developing feelings instead of the more common enemies-to-lovers story.

I'm missing the point of the first part of episode 9. I get that they wanted to deal with Vee's inferiority complex, but it didn't do the job. If it was done for the laughs, it didn't work, too. I liked the tiny Yoo/Kamphan moment, though.

Stop calling Mark a girlfriend or a wife, plz. He very obviously isn't the one or the other. If I wanted to watch a heterosexual romance, I just need to turn on the TV. Or go to the cinema. Chances are that any movie I would watch, no matter the genre, would have a bit of heterosexual romance thrown in. In a homosexual romance, I accept the terms wife and girlfriend only if I'm watching a f/f romance. This one isn't it.

I enjoyed the second part of episode 9, though, especially the conversation in the Japanese restaurant. And the ending before Mark's parents came it. ;)

I'm going to wait until next week for episode 10, because I don't want this series to end yet.

Edit: it seems that the wife comment bothers a lot of people here. This is obviously my personal opinion, which I'm definitely not imposing on anyone.

This is my most anticipated series for August together with The Eclipse, but in the introduction video Peat said Sky and Prapai would meet only halfway across the series. This is really disappointing , because I thought both couples would be given the same amount of screen time and was very happy about that, I like having two main couples instead of a main and a side couple. So, if I got that right, Sky and Prapai would both be main characters from the beginning but will meet later in the series. Too bad. Or maybe (hopefully) the first half of the series will be about Rain and Phayu and then the second half about Sky and Prapai.

I don't know how obvious it was Ploy was initiating the kiss, I have no clear opinion on that, but Vee just stood there without pushing her away for at least 15 seconds... and this is a long time. Everybody has an opinion, of course, and mine is that Mark was right to break it off, considering Vee's previous treatment of him.

It would've been better if that option wasn't available and they would just continue with the normal airing schedule, to be honest. Now twitter is full with spoilers for episode 9, even though not everyone can or wants to pay to see it in advance. It will be even worse on Saturday with episode 10.

Absolutely! In episode 4 Vee came back together with Ploy without telling Mark at all. He didn't even bother to text him, instead he just paraded with her in front of Mark after asking him to wait for Vee to break up with her. Seriously, the scene in episode 8 at Mark's door with Pack was indeed brutal and I felt sorry for Vee, too, but it doesn't mean he hadn't done the same thing to Mark already and didn't deserve it. He himself said he finally knew how Mark must've felt.

We had the same happen to Vee in episode 4, when Mark was the one to bring him drunk and passed out home and take care of him. Both have a drinking problem IMO and this is why the series is rated 18+. Drinking seems to be a general problem in BLs, the characters drink a lot. Or maybe this is my very subjective impression as an almost non-drinker, but I don't like it either, especially considering how young these characters are.

A whole episode from Mark's POV... I'm in heaven. Again, I adored the new episode and couldn't put it down, it was thrilling and exciting from the beginning to the end. Episode 8 hurt a lot and I felt all of it, they were so good. Great actors, please more!

Mark's father sucks so much. No wonder Mark comes across as needy sometimes, with him practically having just one caring parent.

This continues to be my favourite BL series for this year, and now I'm convinced more than ever it's mainly because of the flawless acting, the chemistry between the mains and me loving both of them for different reasons and in a different way, because they are portrayed like real people with their good and bad traits.

Two things I wanted and got: it was Vee who explained to Mark what had happened with Ploy, and they sort of reconciled at the end of this episode and the issue won't be dragged to the very last episode. Hurra!

This is my most anticipated GMMTV series for this year together with Never Let Me Go, so I'm absolutely excited it's finally coming! I love the new trailer as much as I loved the teaser. After all, I'm watching BL primerly for the romance. *shrugs*

Yeah, I saw the preview and really hope Mark won't go too far with his ex just to spite Vee, it would be very contraproductive. But I have faith in him and think he'll calm down at some point, but it will take time indeed, he's really hurt and we know he tends to lash out when he sees no other way to deal with the pain.

I finally got to watch episode 7 and I think it's my favourite together with episodes 2 and 3. It was engaging from the beginning to the end, and the acting was flawless.

Although Vee didn't do anything wrong except not pushing Ploy away more resolutely, I absolutely sympathise with Mark and can understand his reaction. The best moments of the episode apart from the honeymoon scenes were the scenes with Mark being absolutely over the moon with happiness while waiting for Vee and preparing for their life together (the clothes, the toothbrush, the photos, the mugs OMG) and the scene with Mark and Nuea crying together. I got goosebumps when watching these moments, they were played so well. I can't blame Mark for the way he reacted, but I can't help but feel sorry for Vee, too. His character has grown on me a lot in the recent episodes, because he's actually really caring and compassionate, i.e. generally a good person, but his inferiority complex, his impulsiveness and his inclination to try to satisfy everyone in combination with his good traits lead him to not to be able to put clear boundaries when needed, because he doesn't want to hurt anyone, which of course results into a bigger disaster. I absolutely loved the ending of the episode, go Vee!

I really hope they won't drag the reconciliation until the very last episode, because even though he deserves some of it, I don't want to see Vee suffer too much. And he probably will, given how possessive he was of Mark and how Mark seems determined to move on. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a reconciliation at the end of episode 8 or the beginning of episode 9, because I want to see them grow together as a couple before the series ends.
