I'm officially lost. I have no clue what the heck is goin on.
I appreciated the realism of the handwritten documents left unsupervised where anybody could find them. As if there were any incriminating things written there. Just drugs dealing, bribery, sexual crimes. Why bother trying to hide them or find code words? Dear diary, today I sold a lot of drugs, I spent the well earned money with prostitutes and then I threatened some important people in exchange for money. Please, dear diary, do not tell anyone! I'm leaving you under the bar counter, because everybody knows "hidden in plain sight" is a thing.
I'm starting to keep count of the camera operators sightings. In this episode only we have two (a reflection and a shadow). I'll keep you updated.
And please, for the love of god, now that you've unbuttoned almost all the buttons, just open that darn shirt already!
Ongsa and Inn are so good looking! Its really difficult to concentrate on anything else when they are on screen!!!!!!!
Right? I spend my time trying to decide which one of them is better. Ongsa is canonically beautiful, with those deep piercing eyes, and the perfect lips, and everything in between. Inn on the other side has that aura of power and masculinity and a wilderness barely kept in check, and those smiles full of mischief are to die for.
Ongsa is pure beauty, Inn is sensual attractiveness. They are the sacred and the profane, the sky and the ground, and they fit perfectly together, as the title says, at the horizon. My greatest congratulations to whom cast them together.
I think the time has come for Phob's mother to retreat to the countryside, where a lovely relative will take care of her and her poor health, and where she no longer will be able to mess things up for her son. Good bye Madam, may you live in health and peace.
Can I say I feel sorry for Chat? I can't bring myself to hate him. He's so dumb, my poor guy just needed someone to love and take care of him and give him a purpose in life within his reach, instead of weighing him with expectations and tasks he would never be able to achieve. He's like a special needs kid and instead of protecting him they kept bashing him for that. The only one who seems to give a damn about him is his younger brother. He's like a thai lakorn version of Fredo Corleone. I just hope he won't have the same fate.
Phob well and truly doesnt give a fvck! He looked his FIL in the face and told him, I miss my mans! 🤭🫣😭😭😭
Yes! That's why I love him! We are used to seeing characters who endure the parent's wrath, who either submit or try to escape the situation. Phob doesn't kneel. He fights back. He doesn't give a fuck. This is so refreshing in the BL world and exactly the reason why I find him so attractive
Ep 4.- Still very questionable music choices, but then in other moments the bgm goes silent and there's just loud…
"And of course, not even 15 seconds into their kiss, they're already laughing so hard, they're shaking as if they were sitting on a massage chair (and that would have been a setting idea than whatever this is)."
This is one of the reasons why I'm convinced it's all staged. They can't not know what they're doing. This sloppiness, this clumsy staging, the editing, the sound, the patches, Windows 7… they know exactly what they're doing. They're laughing at us as we laugh at them, and they're having a blast.
I Just watched ep 4 and I’m sorry to say I don’t have a clue about What happened because I was transfixed with the 5 people dancin on the couch in the background. A quarrel, a beating, a fight and a make out session later, and they’re still there dancing and drinking and caring for nothing in the whole world. This series is truly something else.
Yay! Back to the comments section for episode 3 & 4! Let’s see what’s in store for my favorite Tide of…
We have to do something with that DA DA DA, like, I don’t know, turn it into a secret code for the secret club of us deranged fans? Try to picture it: we meet at some sort of comic con while cosplaying our heroes wearing the uniforms with the barely hanging patches and We greet each other with a solemn DA DA DA. Wouldn’t it be something to remember for the test of our lives?
I wanted to watch both new episodes but I need to stop after episode 3 because my neurons are about to combust.
What is the lady cop so busy typing on a keyboard that is clearly not connected to the pc, as the monitor is showing the Windows home screen? And why is that same monitor reflecting the camera operator? Is it some kind of tribute to the hard work of this playful crew?
Cut to nightclub guy, who is stuffing his nose with a substance that may or may not be the leftovers of the one his boyfriend secretly gave him to show him love in TOL. And that he now wants his ex to sniff. Can't say these guys have dull ways of showing their love.
Aaaand here we go again with the 5 years. What happened 5 years ago? Not 4, not 3. 5 years ago. Cop guy has a mysterious (5 years) old video of nightclub guy apparently having fun with other people, but apart from that we still don't know. So it's easy to assume that we'll be back to "what happened 5 years ago" in the next episode. I like it when plot progresses so flawlessly.
I wanted to skip this one after reading the fist comments, but then I discovered it's from the same gang of Tide of Love and I was suddenly excited to start this new journey into sloppiness!!
And I must say I was not disappointed one bit. Except perhaps by the fact that it seems they hired a sound technician. That was a bit of a let down, as the crappy sounds and voice echoes were part of the fun. I guess you can't always have it all.
It all was balanced anyway by the usual astounding editing, especially at the the beginning of the second episode, where the characters' position was reversed seamlessly and the handcuffs appeared and the disappeared in true magical wonder.
I'm glad to see they did not change the kissing scenes attitude, where one of them (the guy who played the student in TOL and is now a cop/pilot - by the way: kudos to the uniform!) seems to be swallowing sour medicine. Love him.
damn boy can kiss!but please tell me i was not the only one laughing my ass off like a wild horse during that…
I swear, I started watching the series because I wanted to re-experience the most grotesque scene I've ever come across. I don't know if it is possible to take it seriously :D
And I love Phob's mindset. The reason why I can't have a relationship with the one I love is that he's a noble while I'm a servant? No problem, I'll crush the whole political and social system and I'll get my man. This is what I call problem solving.
I'm loving this so much! It's the only airing show at the moment that makes me curse when the episode ends :). The only problem I have is deciding which is more beautiful, Ongsa or Inn.
He won't heal until he accepts the fact that he is wounded.Can you imagine Itsuki doing that?Can you imagine him…
"Sadly, I believe the future Itsuki will end up as a suicide, a tropical fish that can't take the heat of the world in which he was placed, gone belly-up as a result. On this matter, the script was not subtle"
this is so spot on and perfectly said.
It resonated with me because I understand the feeling of always being out of step with mainstream society. However, feeling out of step cannot become an excuse to justify any shortcomings or to blame society for one’s own sense of inadequacy. As you rightly point out, Itsuki needs a journey of self-awareness and healing—which doesn’t mean he has to conform to imposed social standards, but that he can learn to live within them without building defensive walls.
Unfortunately, we know full well that he’ll never do that.
