Bunn is older than Tann. In the novel, Bunn is 30 while Tann is 26. So if anything, Tann would be the one saying…
I tried to find where I heard this so that I can share here, but I could not. So, if I remember correctly, someone on the series team said they change so that Tan is 28 and Bun is 30.

I have another question for members...Does anyone speak Thai or read Chinese? I'm asking because an interview…
Here is an english translation of the part you are talking about:

https://twitter.com/Alva_gin0808/status/1359455404019752962

As you will see in the clip, there seems to be some jumpcut between Tul reading the question and their talking about season 2. So, it is possible that it is a joke taken out of context and it is not a serious conversation they are having. I am trying not to have any hope unless they officially announce.

But, what they say in the clip align with novel 2 of TanBunn adventure: Transplant. The author has released 10 chapters so far here:

https://writer.dek-d.com/dek-d/writer/view.php?id=2158747

She announced recently that Transplant the novel will be released in full in Summer 2021. If there is season 2 of TanBunn and they adapt Transplant for it, it will be a new case (and new adventure for Tan, Bun, That and Sorawit) and not a continuation of the case from MOD. So, there will still be plenty of story to tell and it won't be simply milking due to MOD's and the actors' popularity.

Personally, if there is S2, I will be excited only if they have the same directing-screenwriting team as MOD S1 working on it.

I feel the same way. There are too many things that don't really make sense or work. Like when Tan was going to…
My conclusion that you are hateful is based not only on just this post. I logged in here, scroll down for just a bit and see your very less than positive replies to several posts, and they indicate you don't enjoy this show at all, and not just this episode.

Regarding Bun's dynamic with Tan, you are asserting your point without examples or explanations.

Regarding the judge, the creators clearly want you to suspect the judge from the start of the episode. This is just nitpicking based on your personal preference.

I got that haha. It is way too clear that I enjoy this series. I was replying considering your reply as a reply to their post.

Yes, and I understand if someone has criticisms. But their comments are not even criticisms, they are simply nitpicking and just being annoyed at the show for not making them like it.

Among other things, I truly commend the wardrobe department of this show. The outfits truly complement the characters.

I also appreciate all the action and stressful scenes while wearing flip flops, and Inspector M's one- size-too-small uniform. We wouldn't have gotten all the funny memes without them.

You have so much patience. Thank you. Whenever I see victim blaming, it's too much for me to handle. I cannot write down my thoughts coherently because I am way too angry.

I think you are watching this show just so that you can act like you are cleverer than people who enjoy this show and make comments like this.

The scene went like this. Tan expected and was hinting that Bun say "as long as you're with me" or something romantic and sweet. But, Bun, making it into a joke, says "as long as no one is killing me". So Tan suddenly goes up to him, so he is startled, not scared. Important distinction. As soon as Tan says "as long as you're with me", Bun carresses Tan's face and leans in to kiss him, because the mood changed from funny to romantic. Read the subtext. Read what is not said in words. And if you actually pay attention to the series from the start, you will notice that Bun never admits in words how much he cares about Tan. He only shows with his actions.

Also, it is pretty clear that a lot of physically intimate stuff is going on in their relationship. But, the series shows only the ones that drive the story. It's not trying to appease people who watch this show for the sex or makeout scenes.

The shaky camera scenes are to invoke stress on the viewers during the scenes that are stressful. People might be just talking but the content of their conversation can create stress. They are by design not by mistake. If you don't like it, it's fine but it does not mean it's usage does not make sense. That Rungtiwa is evil has been hinted throughout the series. A crime show lets viewers solve the mystery with the characters. If the bad guys came out of left field, most viewers will be disappointed. The show, from the start, has intentionally given hints after hints as to who the bad guys are. In short, the ominous music when Rungtiwa is on screen is intentional. The question is not whether she is bad or not. The question is 'how bad is she?'

Of course, like any crime show, there are flaws with this show. But, you are just nitpicking and being hateful.

So, I am glad to see the cactus. Because this means Tan probably watered his garden. I can now convince myself that the pepper is okay.

This episode was so chilling, I actually had a stomach ache near the end from the stress, lol. Inspector Gun is…
I thought it was heavily implied in the episode that Rungtiwa was fabricating parts of her confession (her facial expression, the score that was playing, why she took Pued's phone, how she said Pued confessed to her that he murdered Jane, etc.). So, I have a feeling we are going to see a third recreation of Jane's murder with the correct murderer.

Regarding Captain Gun, I am not surprised either. What is surprising to me is Inspector M getting shot several times. And yes, Oat has to be lying.

Okay am i the only one that felt it was hella anticlimactic when they revealed Jane's death and pueds like i knew…
Or are we sure Rungtiwa was telling the truth during the interrogation?
What did I watch? Two famous people tied down by a contract acting out Mame's personal fantasy or something that did not need to be acted out for everyone to see? I still can't believe they made that. Usually I don't like to say that I don't like something without giving an explanation.... But this one, I don't want to explain anything... This series broke that rule for me... I have seen bad Thai BL's but this one... wow... I feel bad for all the fans, and the actors for whom this might have been an important job. They deserved better.

On Manner of Death Feb 2, 2021
Two types of people seem to complain about the development of the relationship between Tan and Bun.

1. People who cannot pay attention to and understand a nuanced exploration of an LGBT relationship and character development in the midst of an unconventional scenario.

2. People who want to see two attractive men make out and take their clothes off.

There can be overlap in both.

The series does some fan service, no doubt. But, it does not dwell on it. There isn't an intimate scene that the camera lingers on unnecessarily and it seems like that has disappointed people who watch stories about gay men for the sex and makeout scenes.

While we are at it, let's make up stories in our heads about how Bunn and Tan both did competitive diving in high school and college lol.

The nuanced way of storytelling really amazes me. I am hooked on this show. I will probably be watching this series several times after it finishes airing. Every dialogue and every scene has a purpose. Mainly I can't get over how Tan is literally a shady murder suspect with a double life for most of the series and yet the love story is probably the healthiest I have seen in media.

If they defy laws of physics, let's just assume Bun knows how to dive lol.

Yeah, the novel is used only like an outline for the story - the characters, setting, story outline, etc. The novel does not do much of what the series does. The series does a lot of world building and shows a lot of characterization of the characters especially Tan. Tan's character's complexity is not there in the novel imo. Moreover, any other character other than Bun and Tan is not developed at all in the novel.

I agree with what you mean by grey villains. Like you said, in this case though, we 'can't expect people like Rungtiwa (if she's the villain) to have any ethical or moral code'. Maybe there will be some kind of reason (a reason and not a justification) for her being like this. Maybe they will make her more complex than an 80's superhero movie villain.

Episode 10 takeaways:-Inspector M is DEFINITELY helping Tan. That’s why we didn’t see their convo when he…
I agree. I think it's pretty clear they faked their deaths with M's help. The question is how. Maybe Bun uses his medical examiner expertise and teaches them where to shoot so that they will survive easily. I am saying this based on what happens in the novel. In the novel, things are not quite dramatic. If you haven't read the novel, he uses his expertise to stage his own dead body using pig's blood.

Speaking of novel, the series cannot be compared to it. It is superior in every way to the novel.

With regards to Rungtiwa, I love the idea of her being the main murderer. I don't like when women are villains with their main motivation being a romantic interest or jealousy (you know basically 'men writing women' lol). But, I would love it if she is very powerful in the shady things that are going on... and she killed mainly to retain her power. And it would be even better if she is the mastermind behind everything, a truly horrible villain in every aspect.

Also it seems to be shaping up for Rungtiwa to be the main villain. Besides saying suspicious things, it was implied in episode 9 that she is at least as bad or shady as Por. Every decision regarding a character's personality and motivation hasn't disappointed me so far. So, I hope they won't disappoint with Rungtiwa also.
