estar glad to see Ben got a bit of good in him, cause the way things were playing out he had put his feelings for Nueng out of his mind (in a flash) & was ready to move on - what with all the flirting with Chopper. glad to see he still got a moral sense (cause was really feeling bummed watching him & Chopper, as the reason i started watching this BL was cause of Dangerous Romance which is airing & heard the leads there were in this. so while that got updated would fill in the time with this & really dislike both their character's here (even though they not out & out bad), so seeing some good is reassuring). ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************Nueng - idk what to say about that mess with that plot line (lacks logic) Nueng is still a kid/teen with no power, let alone connections that will enable him to fight back, let alone stand strong against his Uncle. but he knows best??? ok i guesshim throwing a tantrum around Palm (again nothing new), at least this time it was to save Palm. so he did bad for a good reason. still meeh writing (¬‿¬) *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - dude playing Nueng can't kiss to save his life - maybe it's cause he still young & inexperienced. but considering how he kissed Palm's shoulder, i think he not into kissing (men) period. ＼（〇_ｏ）／

donno what to say - these 2 morons need to stay low, but they keep finding reasons to get into trouble & after using the ATM shouldn't they have immediately packed up & left?!??? but nope - no common sense or logic used when writing this crap - sorry but this plot is mediocre at best. it has it's moments & every time i think it will be ok from now on... it gets worse＼（〇_ｏ）／(ノへ￣、) the mains making out, doesn't delete my memory if anything them getting cozy loses & impact ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************everything was more or less predictable - Chanon getting locked up for his stupidity, handing his ass on a platter, removing one more obstacle from getting at Nueng. let alone having a fall guy to blame Phiphop murder & Thanya's shooting on - heck even his son got framed as an abductor - convenient. same with Palm having a heart to heart with Mam, of course we needed a heartwarming mother son moment, for him to care let alone justify Nueng putting himself in danger to help her. genius writing it isn't ( ˘︹˘ ) ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but 4 more eps to go - stuck it out until now, a bit more wont hurt (as is keep fast-forwarding this). ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************ah & don't care for the Ben, Chopper story either. Ben the last person anyone should fall for, his heart is fickle - 1 moment he was mooning over Nueng. & considering the reason his friendship with Chopper ended (cause Choppers confessed) if Ben was a good/worthy guy he would be the one seeking him out, trying to apologize. not just hinting at a past & them not being friends anymore - so his suddenly noticing Chopper is gross IMHO another b.s. plot line

get taking in someone u helped, so he can repay ur kindness through work, but to make him ur bodyguard （︶^︶） little wonder the dude a colossal mess - u don't just give someone a gun & hope he turns into a trained bodyguard ＼（〇_ｏ）／(ノへ￣、) like talk moronic - little wonder anyone in the Kiattrakulmethee family survived this long. the ending scene also obvious - what's making me angry is this stupid man (cause he feels beholden to Phiphop) is ready to sacrifice another inexperienced person (his son) to the same family. the lack of logic is mindboggling by all the adults involved - this was doomed from the start. ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************idk what changed Nueng mind, that he not running circle's around Palm trying to figure out his true feelings. but was the one to make his wants clear (even though his saying "...while they were on the island...." - not baoding well) but at least they have made some type of headway - now lets hope this doesn't end in a disaster or a tragedy. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Ben deserved getting his ass handed to him, he a joke trying to confront a group of guys - what he think no one would hit him cause he the school president?!? ok - but that was needed for Chopper to come to the rescue (why have just one couple when u can have multiple?!?). but Chopper got enough on his hands, with the psycho for a father - who loves gaslighting him, saying everything he is doing is for his son - b.s. he's a greedy little pig, nothing more

Palm's mother is a real character, so how ironic that she turned out to be the sane adult. everything she told Palm, after finding out why he was there & who Nueng was - i was like Preach!!! at least she got some sense - not that it's gonna help Palm, dude a goner - he head over heels infatuated with Nueng. heck anyone saying "...u only show me ur good side..." is hooked - cause from where i'm sitting, Nueng totally toxic when dealing with Palm. *********************************************************************so as much as it was light & fun watching this ep, Nueng really is a walking disaster waiting to happen - his life is a mess & the baggage he is carrying make him emotionally a mess as well - this situation aint something to scoff at - ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************i am crossing my fingers he hasn't lost his mother, cause that Uncle wont let him reach his 19th B-Day. & how long can either live in hiding without an income - Palm's mother aint rolling in it. so idk where this plot is going will have to wait & see - we only at the half way mark still 6 ep's more to go - hope this aint a tragedy (getting tired of hearing about the weaver girl and the cowherd, hope it aint foreshadowing＞﹏＜).

Palm was all healed by the end, so was sure he would again injure one body part or another, heck not a bodyguard for nothing ( ˘︹˘ ) & sorry but Chanon is the worse bodyguard i've seen - he slow to react, the people he is supposed to guard, always end up getting shot, the cherry on top he always just wounds the assailants, never killing them. so the whole "...we owe Phiphop our lives..." is lip-service, that he for sure can't for the life of him seem to repay. but i guess this is how we get the leads secluded together, so their love story can progress - same with sudden existence of pic's of Ben & Nueng's 1st kiss - which came from an angle where Palm was standing - meeh writing *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Maggie (as i pointed out in the previous ep) is a gem of a character, she's down to earth, not money hungry, a good friend & also she's fun to be around - not to forget she's caring - can we say this remotely describes Nueng? he got even one trait making him worthy of being a main, let alone of Palm? in this ep i didn't see it. ******************************************************************heck he finds ways to demean & humiliate Palm at every turn, always reminding him of his place & then getting angry at him, when he complies - so he's damned if he does & damned if he doesn't＼（〇_ｏ）／ but sadly Palm is infatuated & has known how he feels from the start, little wonder he keeps letting Nueng walk all over him, acting the spoilt brat only where he is concerned. this totally toxic, but everyone else eating this up (ノへ￣、)

so disgusting Phum's father is demanding retribution for his injured son. but Nueng's mother isn't?!? even if Palm's father couldn't come & exposed he is employed by the Kiattrakulmethee's (complicating things for them), couldn't a mothers who's son has been bullied for weeks on end, gotten his stuff stolen & also ended up getting beaten (when he exposed his bullies) come demand Phum be punished accordingly?!? little wonder the teacher couldn't take one side over the other, as she pointed out "...Nueng is alright, as it was just some innocent bullying..." so if only Phum & Palm were injured, and Nueng did make it clear is wasn't 'just kids playing around' they both to blame & got the punishment the deserved. she not the bad-guy here ! ********************************************************************************************************************************************love Maggie, she a great character & a better friend to Palm then Nueng. Nueng keeps saying the word, but action wise he always finds ways to remind Palm who is boss & i aint even talking about the mess at the end, where he out n out shouted ur my dog in Palm's face, humiliating him in front of a room full of people. Maggie is 'good people' she pure hearted, hardworking & would be a great partner with whomever she ends up with. ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the rest is a mess - Nueng doesn't realize he is jealous of Palm, cause he may be attracted or even infatuated with him. but he has yet to realize this, so he just acting out, like a spoilt brat. but tired of watching Palm getting his ass handed to him time & again cause of Nueng stupidity *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************ironic but have a feeling Chopper is gonna turn on Nueng not cause of his father but Ben. also what happened between them to end their friendship.

had to stop 9 mins in - Nueng keeps telling everyone he's an adult that can deal with anything , let alone he doesn't need help & yet he's acting like a new-born, trusting anyone who seems remotely friendly - why? why be so trusting & confide in them? why be open & answer any question they ask? how long has he known either Ben or Phum - let alone what have they done to show him they trust worthy??? *************************************************************************************************************after seeing his father gunned down, he still keeps running away without protection, as if his life isn't in danger - after getting bullied in school wouldn't one be more suspicious of everyone?!?? this not a logical, commonsensical reaction?? frustrating character. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw Ben went from suspicious in the previous ep to creepy, "...u don't need him, as u got me as a friend..." WHAT?!?? huh who says that - can a person have only one friend? why so territorial?? freakin crazy mentality IMHO. let alone that dude can't guard his own body, what he gonna do against a bullet? play classical music?!? WTF is going on with this 🤪 dude ***************Palm also a moron for standing there listening to him spew nonsense, he should've told Ben to go talk to his employer - i.e. Nueng's - end off that whole redundant speech - but this BL great at drawing out scene pointlessly. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************like with Phum, the big reveal was turned into a bad joke - i aint a fighter but even one bad word about my parents OMG & if one spoke about a dead parent i would've bashed their head in, before they finished the sentence. here both Nueng & his "bodyguard" got their asses handed to them & then to add insult to injury Nueng standing around not informing his mother or Chanon, waiting for Ben to update him - why??? Palm did his job (badly) but that is what he was hired for - moronic plot

everyone is suspect. know everyone suspecting Chanon (so was i in the previous ep) BUT would he bring his son into a situation that could put him in harms way?!? i doubt it - not saying, i trust him - but giving him the benefit of the doubt. *************************************************************************************************************************************************same with the rest of the character's - Nuengdiao indeed is too trusting & naïve. maybe he has always been so lonely, anyone being kind - he is ready to give a chance - like with Ben (another one i don't trust) & can't read he just wants to be Nueng's friend or more?!? ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Chopper, in-spite of being born to a father like Kit, is much more clearer to read. he isn't interested in Nueng or his inheritance. heck he not even concerned about him as family (which given we talking Asians, is totally weird). he does care about Ben, as a bf that he has grown apart from? as a love interest - yet to be seen. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Phum on the other hand - the sec i saw him (in the previous ep) knew he was the main bully after Nueng - he got "user" written all over him. hope the plot becomes clearer

where to start (⊙x⊙;) good looking cast. the plot meeh - same with the acting & the drawing out of scenes with nothing but tedious.... *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************plot holes; for a prestigious family the Kiattrakulmethee's only got one bodyguard(?) that is conveniently busy when a gun man comes to kill them? Chanon for sure comes back at the right time (to keep the relevant character's alive) without the car he was supposed to fetch. oh & not one person among the affluent, got a phone to use? everyone just standing around watching Phiphop kick the bucket ＼（〇_ｏ）／ OK ( ˘︹˘ ) **********************************************************************************then we got the school scene, for a prestigious families kid Nuengdiao is a submissive pushover, letting random morons bully him in school? & he angry his mother is worried enough to plant a bodyguard close to him - really??? OK ผ(•̀_•́ผ) ********************************************************************************************************************************************************the only one that impressed me was Thanya, Nuengdiao's mother - what a turn around, she slayed in that red cape dress, she more fitting for MC IMHO. so seeing her taking control was a boss move & much more impressive then if her introvert, shy pushover of a son would've tried asserting dominance - that would be ridiculous (again dude can't handle the morons in his school) & that scene with his Uncle was hilarious, that awkward hug was so freakin funny. other then this really this was more miss then hit for me. hope this gets better (ノへ￣、)

am happy that Ren & Kazuma ended up together. that they r not just communicating, but expressing their feelings/love verbally - something that conveys their relationship will grown n go from strength to strength - so that is a very positive ending. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************& yet this ep left me wanting - didn't like the whole scene with Sanada or even after (the running after Ren), it was over acted, came off amateurish. even the whole scene with the president was b.s. considering what Ren revealed about Sanada, let alone informing he had an additional 12 victims, the president's go to was "...lets cover this up..." like r u freakin serious?!? the cherry on top of that scene what Ren bowing his head in thanks - just me thinking of cursing& trying to assault that old f*cker, that enabled Sanada for over a decade?!????? that conclusion supposed to make me happy?!??? plz（︶^︶）*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************if this wasn't enough we get that weird scene with Kazuma's mother - yeah right she wasn't angry cause they were gay, but cause they didn't think - was that why she tried to keep them apart not only a decade ago, but also now when she recently met Ren??? was that it???( ˘︹˘ ) plz(╬▔皿▔)╯ but as this the last ep, everything needs to be wrapped up (even if it's half assed & unrealistic) so we get the "happily ever after" oh well - what's new＼（〇_ｏ）／ always the odd one out - this was great until ep 7 - pity, cause this had potential (ノへ￣、)

sorry but WTF was that ending ＼（〇_ｏ）／ that was crap/garbage writing!!! has Ren suddenly turned stupid?!? there is a time to follow societies norms/rule & a time to be on ur guard - be freakin weary especially of a rat like Sanada. here he isn't suspicious the dude shows up when there not another soul in the company & he's drunk too??? then Ren just stands there getting his ass handed to him. waiting to get r*aped, like WHAT!!! - What The Actually F*ck (っ °Д °;)っ make this scene make sense plz🤦♀️ like what was the writer thinking??!?????? all this so Kazuma can be the knight in shining armor - really?!?? this was an idiotic cliché if there ever was one, OMO i am pissed (＃°Д°) at the turn this plot has taken (╬▔皿▔)╯(for the worse)(ﾟДﾟ*)ﾉ *****************************************************************************************************************************************& Ryunosuke maybe a good friend to Ren, but he not justified in targeting Kazuma, any more then Kazuma's mother was justified in taking out her anger at Ren. they were teens when what happened happened, neither was innocent nor guilty - they were just teens being teens, Kazuma falling sick was neither's fault, just bad luck. *************************************************even as grown-ups they were so scared of communicating (for fear they would hear/say something & lose the other) they didn't ever come close to having a serious conversation about the past, let alone the present or the future. if u blame one, u have to blame the other. but as both of them were the only ones paying for their insecurities, which outsider has the right to get angry at one or the other - ugh this was a frustrating ep

ugh!!!! seriously (っ °Д °;)っ what a mess & why the frack i have to see that rat with another victim - he can't find even 1 person willing to sleep with him, he gotta drug everyone??? talk about a rotten cherry that wasn't need, after this emotionally turbulent ep (ノへ￣、) (btw was the person a male, this time around?!? wont be shocked as what he is doing, is trying to assert dominance on the weak - gender doesn't matter) d*ckless wonder that he is (╬▔皿▔)╯**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also idk if this the Japanese culture, or Ren's overwhelming guilty conscience, but u wouldn't catch me dead sitting cordially/humbly sitting in a café trying to have a civil conversation with someone that was so hostile towards me. again guess it was Ren's conscience - but he didn't kill Kazuma, he for sure didn't r*ape him. not to mention he has been paying since the sec the whole thing was brought to light, can't he find it in himself to forgive himself? frustrating to watch him sitting there meekly, letting Kazuma's mother treat him like so much dirt. i get why she is hostile, but as the adult (let alone a decade passing) shouldn't she show some maturity?!? & considering she didn't rush to contact her son, she knows she is in the wrong about Ren & her son's relationship. but looks like as long as she can take out her frustrations in life on Ren - convenient fall guy (►__◄) logic doesn't factor - nothing really matters *****************************************************************************************ironically the one she is hurting is her son - who is again left abandoned without an explanation -

of course wasn't wrong about rat-boy Sanada. (but didn't get Ren's question to Ayumi's confession) like sorry, but why should she leave? how does this solves the problem?!?? let alone leaving any job & letting Sanada be, isn't a solution (cause as we saw in this ep) he has countless victims, cause he isn't being stopped by anyone. even firing him wont be enough IMHO - dude should be castrated or jailed (¬‿¬) now either solution works for me. but gathering evidence, is a start `(*>﹏<*)′*******************************************************************************************************************************************************Ren has suffered so much & the fact he is still running scared is heartbreaking. he is worried that the sec he confess to Kazuma, he gonna get rejected & he's gonna lose him all over again. so he rather play act at being FWB＼（〇_ｏ）／ then come clean. so get it & yet, it's frustrating to watch... cause every action by both Kazuma & Ren is a declaration of their love＞﹏＜for the other **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************have a feeling the reason Kazuma's mother recognized Ren, was cause of the shirt she made for Kazuma (the one Ren was wearing) add a mothers intuition, put two & two together & of course she gonna recognize the teen that almost killed her son. not to mention Kazuma for sure resented her taking him back to the US, away from Ren (even if she didn't come out & say they were immigrating cause of what happened between him & Ren) just the fact she decided without consulting him or giving him a chance to contact Ren before leaving, would've made him resent her - and her biggest fear was her son being around someone who almost killed him, let alone forced him sexually (ノへ￣、)

OMO poor baby Ren, he so didn't deserve to get outed in that fashion, not only did he feel bad putting Kazuma in that position. then Kazuma has to get sick almost losing his life and then in front of a whole room, he gotta confess what happened. **********personally don't get why that would help Kazuma or the doctor, when he knows what is wrong with Kazuma & has a freakin degree in doctoring - but ok. & cause Ren already felt guilty (that he more or less forced Kazuma into doing it - automatically took all the blame, making it seem like he forced himself on Kazuma) n even though i kinda get Kazuma's mothers reaction (which was out of anger & worry) my heart still breaks for baby Ren, who didn't deserve anyone piling on - **********************the "cherry" on top, getting actively kicked out of him family. guess can be thankful he wasn't tossed out into the street, just sent abroad (►__◄) this was one hell of an emotionally charged roller costar ride - little wonder Ren is still running scared ********************************************************************************************************************************************& if all this wasn't enough, it looks like Sanada the rat is date-r*ping his subordinates among other things ＼（〇_ｏ）／ just thankful i don't have to wait for ep's to get subbed & uploaded

not even 5 mins in & had to stop; do Japanese love hotels just let anyone use their rooms?!? we talking teens here - bleedin hell - how this legal?!? am thankful it aint a teen with an adult (that would be worse). but still, they babies ugh `(*>﹏<*)′ (also seeing 2, 14yrs old's getting half naked has me uneasy, thankful that scene wasn't exploitative & didn't last long ).***************************************************************************************************************************************************************finished & am back, thankfully that was Ren's 1st time & his attitude was a front. also after doing the deed & seeing Kazuma break-down. Ren wrongly assumed Kazuma felt bad about what they did (let alone him then suddenly disappearing, reaffirming Ren's mistaken conclusion). while Kazuma was crying cause he was moved by the connection he felt, sleeping with Ren. bittersweet moment if there ever was one in a BL. *****************************************************************************this also explain why Ren is actively avoiding any type of serious discussion about what they did the night before, let alone 10 yrs ago. he still thinks Kazuma is straight & being a good friend (like seriously?!? weird assumption - but it is what it is) so we get the FWB b.s. where Ren is doing everything to keep Kazuma at arms length, while keeping him close - quite a mind f*ck when u see the yearning in his eyes heartbreaking IMHO
