0 people found this review helpful
this was such an adorable ep - it was perfection. as i said in the previous ep, this was far better then the actual series & it's not that, that was bad - it started of really good, but somehow after the confessions or rather Hioki's 1st confession, it kinda went downhill & felt like the magic was missing. it was cute & didn't think it was boring, but i lost interest & it was kinda meeh by the end - was even glad it ended. *********************************************************************************************************but this special is really special as this reminded me of how i felt while watching the 1st few eps of the prequel. this was precious & made me fall in-love with both mains all over again. & am sure after the 1st ep everyone was sure that the mains spending the night together would be way steamer, but i loved what we got as it was fitting for the teens that they were. this time around i am bummed that there wont be more - loved this!

at the start i was like "this could've ended in the previous ep" but loved the scene with the father & the grandmother, also loved how Guy & Nawa got together, the way they were going i was sure it wouldn't amount more then a platonic relationship. but their confession kiss was adorable & so freakin sweet. the rest was meeh - like o could careless for Name & Saifah, also think Napdao was pointless addition, she was like wallpaper & just kept interjecting herself into scenes & i didn't think she was needed. she wasn't needed to showcase Pimfah, who could've still remained a memorable side character like Auto & Max. *****the mains ending was predictable & cute. but i wont say i was riveted till the end. yeah they got great chemistry & they look good together, but is this a romance for the ages - nah. this was cute & on a whole i wasn't bored but i doubt i will ever rewatch this.

i thought we would get a 2nd or even a 3rd couple - thankfully nothing became of the GL, but was sure there would be something between Saifah, Name & Guy & Nawa. **********************************************************************************Saifah & Name amounted to a couple of moron's that r supposed to be the adults (among all the teens) yet their behavior is like they in lalaland. Saifah thinks keeping quite will keep his brother safe, as if Name can be trusted - given he went out of his way to help him & how did things turn out?!? why he think this time Name would/could keep his word?? ******************************& Name given how things worked out, he doesn't know his mob-boss??? he couldn't find an out & he thinks he has the power to keep Sailom safe, make his boss uphold his part?? like how deluded can one be. & sorry but now that the big-bad-boss has been caught or shot, if Saifah is let out, i am calling b.s. cause he was an accomplice & deserves to rot in jail for betraying the Sukprasert families trust! he as bad as Name & they both need to do some jail time. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Guy & Nawa thankfully turned out better then i thought they would. Nawa for sure a better friend to Guy then Sailom is. & Guy needs a good friend more then a lover so seeing their development warms the heart. they friend goals - love how supportive & caring Nawa turned out to be. *****************************************************************************************side note: Pimfah is a sweetheart & i get her wanting to help Sailom , but i find it so weird that she has shown little to no loyalty towards Kang - they not just childhood friends their families r close & don't just do business together - so i found it a bit weird how she always trying to help, saying she will involved her father - that's kinda absurd.

1st off i have to ask - why is Saifah still around? he came to help Kang's grandmother get back on her feet, now she is - SO why he still there?!? the fact he is very comfortable & doesn't want to leave, is obvious. as this progresses i have actively come to dislike this character & now that he has brought Name in, they gonna destroy that family, before they leave. the sad part is that Sailom who has been working really hard to lead a straight & narrow life, is gonna get painted by the same brush. **********also ironic that Name tried to make Sailom an escort to cover their debts, that could've destroyed his life & his future, but Saifah goes around like a thoughtless moron - care about ur brother & urself. here he can't take of his only family he's suddenly rushing to help a stranger just cause they went to school together - like is this moron brainless?!? ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************throughout had a feeling that something might happen to the grandmother, but it was the father that got shot - which is ironic given the fact that Kang was finally rushing home to see him. but the fact Saifah got caught & Name is nowhere to be found is fitting - cause i don't really care what happens to Saifah. of course his taking the blame, would turn out to be, a way to ensure nothing happens to his brother, but i don't think that he is redeemable as he is the one that brought Name into that house & is at fault for everything that happened as a consequence. ****************************************************************************what bothered me more is the fact that Kang rushed to be by Sailom's side, comforting him - asking about his brother. when Sailom didn't even think to ask about Kang's father?? but it's not shocking Sailom has a tendency to be selfish - like he made a huge fuss about Kang kissing his bff's asses, only then would he accept Kang. yet Guy got hurt & he didn't even think to wonder after him, just left him to go back with Kang & then didn't even call to ask him is he was ok. *************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************what i am glad about that i was right about Kang's father, he isn't a bad person, it's just that when ur raising a child alone (or as a couple) it aint easy & u never know what's right or wrong & things that work with one child, might not with another. so as a windowed parent he was doing his best. now that he has found out, instead of just decided on his own he should learn to communicate with Kang (as he aint a baby anymore). as the adult & the parent he will be the deciding factor, but that doesn't mean he talk it out with Kang before deciding.

cute & all, but this could've ended in the previous ep. yeah the marriage ceremony was cool to watch - so u get an idea of traditional Thai weddings, but we needed Tm's sick mother, the separation & long distance relationship for what?? *************this was fun cause of Phi's character, he was entertaing from start to finish, but the plot was draggy at parts & even though there wasn't a ep where the mains didn't kiss or make out, it wasn't that butterfly inducing. as u got used to them & it didn't feel special, just like being around friends or family that show too much affection, so after the 1st few times u kinda get used to their antics & just roll ur eyes. ********************************************************************************************************even though the acting was good & the plot wasn't boring somehow this did end up being kinda meeh. wasn't bored but wasn't that interesting either. this a one off. am happy for the mains that they r very comfortable with each other but this just wasn't it- bummer

this started off meeh & then they got stranded on the Island & it was hilarious, Phi is adorable & so freakin funny. Tam had his moments - the fact Paul turned out to be the bad-guy was kinda back to meeh. as he was the thorn in Tam's side, he needed to be removed in this way? ok i guess - but poor Phi, not only was his wound infected he also had to get shot??? like come on with the cliché's - oh well, one last ep to go, just thankful the GL never went anywhere - cause that would be gross. *******************& the whole scene between Kaoki & Yong was sad, as it looked like Yong was still madly in-love, yet he saw that Kaoki wasn't, so he put on a brave face & stopped it - before he got his heartbroken all over again...

idk if i can say this ep was better then the 1st - which isn't a good indicator for what's to come, there were so many cringey moments. Jimmy so sure he looks cool, hot, maybe even sexy - but he's kina sleazy & "grease" cozying up to Toh. idk how Toh (who's the adult & thus should have more experience in life) couldn't catch onto the player, the sec he see's one in action & isn't revolted by the aggressiveness of the "come on" routine. & even if he's stupid enough to buy the "...Teh is crushing on Fah, so invite Fah over, so we can ask about his dating status..." shouldn't some questions have popped up when his brother ate & left, while the one pushing Toh to interrogate Fah was Jimmy??? not a millisec where he wondered if maybe Jimmy lied & he was the one crushing?!? guess just me being the suspicious type. ***********************************************************************same with the camping trip, where Jimmy was overly attentive to Fah ,while almost ignoring Toh. but the sec they were alone he put on the charm. isn't that weird - only me?!??? so personally i kinda laughed when he cried watching his bff & crush f*ck. that was hilarious & felt like a karmic moment.. lol **********************************************************************************btw i know Teh was like whatever at the start & just hoped things would work out, or not - that Toh & Jimmy would stop before any started. but still i don't get why he didn't tell his brother that Jimmy was crushing on Fah. that would help Toh catch on to the sign's, that r all around him. he is to oblivious & he thinks the reason Jimmy didn't kiss him was cause he cared about Teh, & didn't understand that yeah it was cause of Teh, but it was cause he knew he wasn't interested in Toh, but in Fah. so there was no point in starting something that could get in the way of wooing Fah. oh well the way Toh is acting, he is basically looking for trouble & he found it - ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Teh & Fah weirdly work even if i haven't seen enough of either to figure out if their only one-night-stand rule was cause (in Fah's case) he wanted Teh / was crushing on him for ages & knew that Teh only did 1-night-stands, so that's what he said to hook Teh?!? or if both were genuinely not looking for anything serious until the right person came along?!? ********************* but i loved the chemistry between them - the sparks didn't a lot to ignite. still didn't think they would get it on in the same room with other sleeping individual's without any perpetration's needed - hot & yet not - if u get what i mean. ******************& could care less that Teh double crossed his bff, as the same bff had no problems using his older sibling even after Teh told him to stop flirting with his brother. so they even in my books. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: the best looking guys in this so far r Fah & Run, Teh is cute but the actors playing Run & Fah - when they come on screen, it's like wow...

idk where Tam's mom popped-up from, but the evil mother-in-law persona wasn't appreciated. as the one that was hurt & jilted in that relationship was Phi & yet his mother is the sweetest, warmest, kindest towards Tam. so the over protective mother act is annoying. she should come hat in hand groveling in gratitude that Phi took her son back. ***************************************guess the whole Te issue getting resolved by karma while there still 2 to go - makes me wonder what final hurdle the pair gotta overcome before their happily ever after

even though this plot is moving along now, it somehow feels sloth paced & kinda boring. maybe just me - idk - but after the revelation & everything else that happened in this ep, i aint left energized. i am bored & uninterested - which is a pity cause i still like Phi & want to see his come back. ********************************************************************************************1st off i don't get how Paul knew something that was only between Tam & Yong. 2ndly why didn't Yong mention the truth, that could be a reason for Tam's sudden break-up & disappearance?!? he had 4yrs to tell Phi the truth, he for sure had no problem blabbering about it to others - like Paul... & 3rdly if Phi was so bad or not ready to be in from of a camera. Tam resigning was enough to push Phi into the spotlight? what, there were no other interns in that TV station?!? or the country?!??? like plz with this b.s. plotline - *********************************************************************************************************************but i get Tam's decision & i am glad he deleted the initial text, cause that was b.s. - we all know that if he had stayed or told Phi about the real reason, Phi would've resented him as he was the one that had verbalized the dream to become famous & if Tam (who was more or an introvert) would achieve his goal 1st, it would've broken them up for sure. *********************************still if i was in Phi's place i couldn't forgive as i would be worried if there would be a next time. hard to trust someone who just ups & bails every time sh*t gets tough or complicated

when Phi & Tam kiss, it feels like they a couple that's been together for ages. it's not hot & heavy it's warm & cozy. but i still say that Phi is doing the wrong thing. yeah it's easy to ignore sh*t, just cause u click perfectly or cause u love them so much u just want them back in ur life. but there is a whole past - 4 yrs to be exact - where Tam just upped & left. no explanation's no nothing - in any stage of the 4yrs. if for no other reason, Phi shouldn't be rushing to give him a 2nd opportunity to repeat the past. that's why he needs to know what went wrong, so he wont get blindsided & dumped again. **************************************the fact the dude playing Yongis in his 40's is kinda shocking - he looks younger then the mains IMO.

watching this 1st ep, i don't feel like it's following the description. Jimmy not in-love with anyone but himself & the fact that he is hitting on Teh's brother, when Teh is his bff is such a f*cked-up thing to do. u don't do that to ur bff!! that's one oh one bro code, like not dating ur bff's ex, or not putting a woman before ur friend. there lines u don't cross, cause it will destroy ur friendship. ****************************************************************************************************************************here Jimmy could care less for anyone & yet the one i am annoyed at, is Toh - dude the oldest among the 4. 1 he should know better & 2 his brother freakin warned him. but he blinded by Jimmy's good looks & charming personality - as the adult he should spot a player the sec Jimmy put on the charm act & the touchy feely sh*t, there should be warning alarms going off in Toh's head - but nope. he more naïve then a new born babe - go figure. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************heck Fah is the youngest in the group, but he could spot a player a mile away - that & he has no interest in Jimmy - which good on him, considering Jimmy so full of himself he sure he can get anyone he just gotta look their way. so he needs to be brought down a peg or two. Toh for sure not gonna do it

the cat watching them kiss was kinda hilarious.. & i am glad that Krist has gotten over his aversion to kissing a guy. BUT i don't think Phi had anything to apologize for - or rather he had NO reason to run after Tam - cause sorry not sorry Tam is in the wrong. heck dude is rubbing me the wrong way. he wanted to get back at Phi - why? wasn't he justified is blowing up when everyone has betrayed him - starting with & including Tam?!? & after how Te & his crew humiliated Phi - isn't he justified in getting angry, when he thought that Tam was going behind his back & might betray him (again) & abandon him for Te?? it's not like it would be the 1st time. *********************************************************************************************************so personally i think it was a really bad idea to jump into bed - very human reaction & yet very bad - cause Phi doesn't know yet why Tam just up & left. no indicator as to why. breaking up via text & then just hopping on a plane - not a backward glance. the fact he cried & maybe didn't want too, means nothing in the long run as he did all those things, not only broke Phi's heart, he also messed with his head - not giving a reason as to why... they weren't fighting or distant - they were loving until Tam sent the text destroying Phi's world. i don't need groveling - i think Phi needs the truth & an explanation! ********************************& i know the GL - woo - yeah - nope. just skipped past whatever was going on between the girls. as that messed-up.

i hope the mother isn't gonna get sick or worse & still love Phi. if anything as this progresses i love him even more - am sure Tam was threatened into leaving Phi, that it would destroy his budding career or something. either way it's clear to see neither is over the other, but they need to talk about the past, so they can decide if they can / should get back together. *******************both the girls r pretty, well Kaoki is beautiful & i am guessing GL - even though i hope NOT. cause it's just gross that Kaoki who almost married & jilted the brother is now gonna be with the sister. even if Yong is over her & the whole situation - it's gross & 2ndly Nudee acts like a teen , either way she way younger then Kaoki & i aint a fan of the age gap romances.

this ep was hard to sit through, cause i don't think Phi deserves all the bullying. we also got to see how he became the "mean-girl" he was, at the start of this BL. when he was taken for granted & treated like dirt, cause he was an intern. little wonder he developed walls & didn't let anyone push him around after he gained fame. it's a slippery slope & it's easy to mistake having high standers to being over bearing - depends on where u stand. *******************************************************************Phi as the boss demanded perfection & his subordinate's would have to deliver, though their best efforts weren't appreciated. personally i hope that when he gets promoted, he remembers everyone that didn't him wrong & doesn't give them a 2nd chance. maybe petty of me. but forgetting & forgiving is over rated! ***************************************************************everyone in that place is showing us, that no matter ur role when there is someone in a worse position, the majority will relish in demeaning u more & stepping on u just for the fun of it - the fact they justifying it as "Phi was once mean" is a b.s. copout, that's immature & not professional. *************************************************************************************************yeah Phi need's to be less strict & not bark orders, just cause they his subordinate's, but that doesn't mean he should grovel & kiss ass just cause they work under him. if he is in the wrong, then so r they - so i hope whatever the growth is on his part, it's with a new set of people (the ones that have come together to help him) all the old workers that acted like working with Phi was beneath them, can kick rocks for all i care... *************************************************************************************in this BL so far i have come to love Phi - he's totally the MVP of this show. no matter how Tam justifies breaking Phi's heart i can't seem to like him & this is new for me, cause until now i usually warm up to the character's that had to suffer Krist's character - who was usually very self centered.

i really love the character of Phi, yeah he a mean-girl that shoots himself in the foot constantly & is throwing a tantrum all the time, but i love him. he is funny, sweet & adorable, as u can see also the vulnerability & pain he is carrying around. but this is so much more then i am used too from Krist, as saw him in both seasons of SOTUS & even watched Be My Favorite & Our Sky & he was more or less, the same character - so this is refreshing. *********************************************************************love his & Singto's chemistry, their acting feels more mature & u can see that they r comfortable with each other - that is making this such a soul soothing watch - regardless of what the character's r going through. i am enjoying myself & can't wait for more.
