To me, the biggest problem of that series was that there was no plot. There were things happening, but they didn’t come together to make a coherent story, from the beginning to the end. Yeah, the series was about Uea and King’s relationship. They start as friends with benefits, the question is if they’ll become more, but there is no question, as in the second episode it becomes clear that they will. So what’s next? The FWB is barely touched upon. They meet, they have sex, they barely talk about it. No problems there (except King being a bit pushy at times). The problems come in the shape of Uea’s multiple SAssailants. The first gets punched into oblivion by King. The second gets solved (albeit in a weird way) by King. The third one gets solved by some random girl who was also a victim, but unlike Uea decided to do something about it. Uea? He’s just there. In normal stories we get something called “character development”, but he gets none. He started passive, he ended passive, except now he has King to punch his problems for him. Now you may say that his problem is being private and unable to trust anyone and he ends up trusting King. But the problems we were shown didn’t stem from him being private. They stem from him being vulnerable and surrounded by assholes. And nothing gets done about that. In the end, he’s still vulnerable. If he loses King, he’ll be in the same boat he was at the beginning of the show. Which makes the whole thing pointless. Now, I gave the series 6.5 stars. It was watchable, I have low standards when it comes to cinematography. And it promoted some healthy practices, like setting boundaries, safe sex, and taking therapy instead of relying on your bf’s magical dick to do the work.

FirstKhao really delivered with their kisses in Our Skyy. 31 kisses in a span of 2 episodes!! They're insanehttps://twitter.com/overshadowed_/status/1654176093941661718?t=p506ElWJ7yNsNvXQ-A2kkA&s=19
They had to make up for all of this baiting in the main series 😂
I'm really curious how much of this show was scripted and how much was just letting the guys go wild. It feels like barely contained chaos. I loved it <3 And the fujoshi ghost is what all of us will turn into, don't pretend it's not.
The first half of this show was great. The second half felt like something between a fever dream and Thais taking revenge for every time clueless white people appropriated (and butchered) stories from other cultures. Still, I loved it and I hope to see more horror/fantasy dramas from Thailand. The actors all did a great job. And Off should be happy that Tor doesn't do BL, because TorGun's chemistry is something to behold.
I haven't seen NLMG (and looking at the reviews I'm not sure I want to), but the historic setting got my attention. Do you think I can watch this ep without watching the main show?
I really hope they will give us some "happy ending" in the last ep. I mean, come on, the series was advertised with sex, and there was barely any action after ep 3.
