deedee

I see. havent seen the show yet

Just small trivia: The house shown in the 1930's back story is the same as rati's house in memoir of rati and i think the water body in front of the house i remember seeing it in one scene of most beautiful count...
Also the reference of Thai / French conflict from the 30's /40's in 2 parellel running shows is intersting

Just started this.. Watched all 3 episodes. I must admit i did skip some of the horror / thriller scenes cause I have a weak heart for that kind of stuff.. But overall love the show; its not your ordinary thai BL no OTT acting. Even the supporting cast is doing so well. I am fully tuned in and looking forward to the next episode!

I dont understand one thing.. Why does SSY not recognize SY when he is forcefully pulled in to the room. Same for SWL why doesnt he recognize GT when they are about to do the deed. Do they turn blind or something.. Is it suppose to be dark in the room? Even if it is if you are spending every day with that person you dont need to see who they are to be completely oblivious to mistake them for a stranger.. Is it explained in the book?

I have skipped a lot too.. but after the Yue Yue reveal, the mother passes away > they make up > go on an elaborate holiday (to the states) > then settle down in their daily life > then the kidnapping > the sister and her two kids shows up > acceptance of CC's family > the arrest - this is more than last 1/3 of the book i think..

lol.. i am with you about the dad.. the kidnap episode was one of my fave.

My Magic Prophecy :)

I hear you.. I felt guilty for reading the book so I know what you mean.

Exactly I thought the same, the character needed a psychiatrist for his addiction to sex.. even his parents and sister thought so.. Remember the sister saying (I think) who would want to be with him, he is crazy the other is a weirdo they are made for each other... lol

Thats still the decent part. All hell breaks loose after that.. So good decision to not continue.. For me it was the same i started reading the book after watching the first 4 episodes wanted to get ahead. I kept reading it with the progress of the show and ruined my experience of the show. I just had to know how the book ends so didnt drop it but that stuff was so disgusting even after skipping pages it was hard to flush it all out.

If they decided to follow the novel closely they would have to make a porn film or several for that matter as there is so much tasteless content in the book.. lol! The book is thematic around sex, punishment, torture, possession and power wrapped with the label of love.
After reading all your comments i am reminded of a few more gruesome details...
The show on the other hand though flawed tickles you and leaves you wanting for more..

The book is 1200+ pages long. To compare the intensity the characters are very loosely based on the book like the show says 'adapted'. They have picked key events from the book and threaded them together in the story . The characters are much darker especially CC in the book (very much sexualized). There are several chapters which go in to graphic details of the sexual acts some difficult to read. I consider a lot of it sexual abuse, BDSM type punishment, no boundaries even among characters who are friends. There is racism in the book which is humorized and I may be forgetting a bunch of stuff to call it out here
The show is more mature and sensitive given the book was written in 2014. The characters have been sensitized and appear much softer when compared to the book.

Thank you for breaking it up like that and sharing the videos... I will give it a shot

Hey everyone.. I have been confused about whether i should watch this one inspite of the rave reviews.. Heard terrific stuff about it but was not inclined to watch it since I dont enjoy censored adaptations. they feel like they are neither here nor there... but after reading recent chats about this show and the comments here I so badly want to watch it.. please advise

nice! thank you :)
now only if they let the whole show through and dont ruin it midway.. looking forward to next week

I thought this was bromance.. I remembered reading it somewhere. Is it really a proper romance?

Ep 5 and 6 are picking up steam. Finally!
Its funny how the tables have turned.. Washizawa was doing the chasing but Suzuki is so jealous and in love. Looking forward to the reunion story unraveling next week

Good catch about the mention of the favorite place. I got stuck on the mushy part about finding his future wife there and didnt think this :)

This one's getting to the point of being barely tolerable. MildKnight have no chemistry, i am surprised PerKan are more bearable. Inspite of such an important incident being brought up towards the end of today's episode - it felt flat, didnt stir any emotions for me usually I am very sensitive to the topic.
And whats up with Mud.. the actor is annoying

thank you. not in to thrill the jump scares that you mentioned but i might give this a try after seeing these responses
