estar how ironic that the character that i have come to actively detest is Teh - i can't stand the MOFO & i am getting really tired of watching him & Fah's f*ck, it's starting to feel exploitative - not that i don't get why, as this whole BL is a bit of a drag, so they supposedly adding some much needed spice to every ep. but it just feels wrong. u can't freakin dump a whole bucket of salt into the soup, u need to do it in moderation **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************& read some comments basically talking smack about the Dentist, personally i think he felt something was off with Toh & was over doing it, in the hopes of not just lifting Toh's mood, but in the hopes of conveying his feelings. that's what a normal human will do, for someone they interested in, he over did it cause Toh was like a freakin wet blanket most of the time, giving zero reaction. so the Dentist kept trying. personally i think having to 'baby' someone for 2 months into any relationship would make most people reevaluate wanting to be in that relationship. but he fell hard (i guess) that after talking to Run, he decided Toh was worth the headache & he wanted to put some much needed distance between him & his ex. hoping it would take Toh out of his funk & make him finally notice the Dentist. too much work for an unworthy character IMO, but it is what it is when it's written this way. this whole ep & BL is full of clichés & tropes that r ridiculous... but 1 more ep to go thank f*ck **********************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: from the start been saying that Run the best looking guy here (Fah comes 2nd, sorry) & given his ex was an abuser, i get his thinking Jimmy was the best of the bunch - he isn't - Run should thank his lucky stars & move on, but hey i think Fah should do the same

idk why 3 eps dropped one after another, but we already at the end & it's kinda frustrating cause as much as i am enjoying myself & loving this, it feels too short & i doubt this feel will change when we reach the last ep. it's like we r skimming the surface & not exploring the depths that could be given the chemistry between the mains & that is disappointing to me. ************************************************************************************************************************************************* this was a very fluffy & fun ep - i love Yo Ki, he is such a loveable fun character, no matter what is going on in his life he has the ability to keep his moral up, even when he is alone. he is such a positive character - he deserves happiness & i am so happy that he finally got someone on his side, not only rooting for him, but someone who demands others respect him - just wish Yang Meng punched that guy that ditched Yo Ki & let him climb the mountain alone. heck i wish someone would break that director's nose. **********************************************************************************************************************also we got some back info about the side story, but there is so little of them that it's another plot that's underdeveloped & a shame IMO.

i am thankful that Yang Meng told Yo Ki why he was pushing him away & appreciate even more that Yo Ki took a step back & gave Yang Meng the space he needed. there only 4 more ep's to go & it feels like there is so much ground to cover - hope this isn't a rush job at the end that leave us unsatisfied

i feel sad for Yang Meng & his wanting to hide who he is, cause of how unaccepting society is. it's not just his father, but he is living like a hermit on a secluded island like some monk, doing good deeds - like he is repenting for being attracted to men. this so sad. i get that Yo Ki is forcing him to face his sexuality & he isn't ready for that. so he is frustrated & angry, taking it out on Yo Ki is convenient, cause he existence if forcing Yang Meng into real life. if Yang Meng wasn't so terrified of being gay, he would see that the life he is living is no life at all, he is just existing & ignoring problems. which wont go away & sooner or later he will be forced to stand up for himself. **************************************************************************************************** the dude that wants the blonde haired guy - i didn't get his resorting to violence, it was so unjustified - he is starting to annoy me

this ep was infuriating - OMG but i wanna pay someone to break Phu's knee caps & seeing his grandmother hail & hearty made me detest her even more then i do her grandson. i could care less for the jovial nonsense with all those old f*cker that r in her friend group. seriously, what is Phu's damage?!? he can answer Dina's call, but can't give a sh*t to even text Nan back?!??? like make it make sense... *****************************************************************************************************************& why is Nan even following him??? after the way Phu has treated him not once but twice - why run after him??? why not cut ur losses & say this time i aint waiting a sec, let alone a decade?!?? heck i would look for a new apartment, a new job & wont look back, not after the way Phu broke Nan's heart. sorry but, after breaking down & weeping the way Nan did, he still wants to be around Phu???? *********************************************************************************************************************** sadly Nan is an enabler & he lets people walk all over him, if he can't stand-up to Man (in his work place) how he gonna do so in his personal life?!? pity - wish someone would let him know that he deserves better, alas even if there was a character that told him this - he wouldn't believe it, cause in his eyes Phu is the one slumming being his bff - not the other way around. idk why he got such low self esteem, depressing to watch how everyone pushing him around & he is letting them

r u f*cking kidding me? so it was just cowardice?!? he hurt Nan just cause he couldn't suffer being in a unrequited love??? cause that is what it amounts too. he ghosted someone he knew loved him (just in a platonic way - so i guess it doesn't count) all cause he couldn't be around him & suffer all alone?!?? so he ghosted him & watched from a far as Nan ran around like a madman wondering what he did wrong, searching Thailand & freakin Australia for Phu... also suffering!!! the worse part, he knew that Nan was in pain, cause even without witnessing 1st hand Nan, looking for him he read all the emails Nan sent into the void - in the hopes his bff would read them & contact him. OMG Nan is justified in his anger - i wouldn't decked him without a 2nd thought. ******************************************************************************************************************************Phu doesn't deserve Nan & it's sad that Party that genuinely cares is gonna never get a chance, cause sadly Nan does have romantic feelings for Phu ugh

Party is such a green flag, i feel so bad that he gonna end up alone (even though not 100% sure he is interested in Nan in a romantic way) but i love him so much for standing up for him, helping him - let alone putting Phu in his place when he said 'he & Nan know each other for 30yrs...' loved that Party deducted the 10yrs, where Phu ghosted Nan. that was a well deserved barb! & Nan never gonna get catty, so someone needed to do it. **************************************************************************also get from the conversation between Phu & his grandmother (& her buds) that there is more to his disappearance then kissing a drunk Nan or the end of the promise made to his father. still - until i hear the reason - can't warm up to him & don't think he is worthy of Nan - who is a sweetheart! ************************************************************************************btw Nan is a bit of a pushover & i don't get him not standing up for himself at work, let alone letting that asshat Man goad him into anything & somehow that joke of a human succeeds in pushing Nan into doing his bidding every time - like why

am loving the side character's here, from the 2nd ML, Party to the beautiful Giegie, crazy Jo & the star that is Patrick - dude is the MVP at getting under everyone skin like a pro - freakin hilarious & it was heartwarming seeing why Phu chose to study with Nan, instead of pursuing his own dreams. but as Nan also goes out of his way to make Phu happy too, i don't think one sacrifice is bigger then the other & it for sure doesn't make up for the way Phu ghosted Nan. *************************************i for sure hope he didn't bail cause Nan was graduating, so the term of his promise to Nan's father had come to an end - that would be whack & would make me angrier. *****************************************************************************************either way i really wish Nan chose to go home with Party & not Phu. yeah i am holding a grudge - ugh. *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: is Man related to Ken?!??? cause he doesn't work other then harass Nan, Party & Giegie. & the way Ken treats him, he knows that Man is useless - so why keep him employed unless he is family. either way dude is asking for an ass kicking

so, if i am getting this right.... the reason Phu ghosted Nan is cause of the kiss?!? he didn't know how he would react the day after, so Pun chose to run(?) instead of facing Nan the morning after? or cause he "got" that Nan didn't remember, he felt hurt & chose to leave, interpreting it as Nan never being able tp see him in 'that' way?!? what???? either way still angry at this character - how many times did Nan question him about the pas?!? the ghosting, what he do in Melbourne or when he came back etc.... & Pun just goes quite (like when Joe was the one to clue Nan in that Phun had come back cause he wanted to buy the coffee shop they frequent as collage students & Phu's catty remark was "news gets around" like b*tch - WHY the f*ck he move into a room in front of Nan?!??? knowing full well they would bump into each other eventually?!?? like WTF is his damage. ******************************************************************************************************************************didn't he tell his grandmother he as "ready", he might have talked about the coffee business, but i am 110% sure he was talking about finally being ready to face Nan. so now he is "standing" in front of Nan - why keep quite? what he waiting for now???? ugh - frustrating character!! ********************************************************************************************************* the fact Nan is such an easy-going, sweet, considerate, understanding character makes me dislike Pun all the more. Nan deserves better & idk if Party into Nan or they just best-buds, but he a better choice IMO. *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: Joe is such a character, i laughed so hard in the 1st ep cause of him, he's goofy - so wish there was more of him in each ep.

i wanna write cute 1st ep, but the way Phupha ghosted Nanfah someone who isn't just a childhood close friend, but someone he has a crush on, really rubbed me the wrong way. at the end there, i wanted Nan to punch Phu the sec he saw him, especially given the smile of recognition - like r u kidding(!) be ashamed - show remorse, something then act like u didn't just ghost ur bff for over a decade, while u were still in the country - like WTF! ********************************************************************* on a whole this was cute & the childhood yrs were sweet, seeing them get closer & then support each other when Phu lost his father. let alone seeing how Phu developed a crush pretty soon after meeting Nan. so seeing how he ghosted him afterwards makes me angry, as i can't see any way to justify his sudden disappearance. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: having suffered from insomnia most of my life, i get Nan & yet him having the lights on, staring at the celling is the wrong way to go. even if u can't sleep close ur eye's make sure there r no distractions & try to clear ur head/mind - even if u can't, just the fact u r with ur eye's close & body relaxed, u will have the strength to deal with a new day in-spite the lack of sleep. the way Nan is going, his body is still active & this will make it harder throughout the day to maintain enough energy to get through it...

what the hell did i just watch.. OMG but this ep was a wild ride, from Tontae reaching Taiwan only to be told that Victor died & then to come back home heartbroken to find out Nan Krai met a similar fate - talk about cruel. that was crazy & the guys that worked with Nan Krai blaming Tontae was just rubbing salt on his wounds - talk over kill & when he gets to regress he is the one to (sacrificed) die??? like what!!! *************************************************************************************************in Nan Krai's case i kinda get the logic, where u could in a roundabout way say; that Tontae turning back time would keep him alive, if he chose never to get involved with Victor & then to go visit him. but in Victor's case it doesn't apply as it was his destiny to died (however he did). his falling in-love & getting involved with Tontae had little to nothing to do with his death - so the sacrifice is....?!? don't get it *******************************************************************************************************but great acting, Tontae freakin broke my heart & i didn't think i would be crying my eyes out in the last ep - not considering the amount of eye rolling i've been doing watching this BL. but cute all in all & still say that this would've been a much better romance between Tontae & Nan Krai - maybe if the plot was changed into a romcom with a tourist falling for a local, it would work with the Taiwanese twin. but as is, the main romance fell flat IMO & only the tragedy & Tontae acting gave any gravitas to the mains romance.

like i've been saying the chemistry between Tontae & Nan Krai is just banging... their love for each other is evident & seeing how much Nan Krai cares for Tontae was soul crushing, cause nothing is gonna come of it. really wished he didn't kiss him at that moment, i assumed Tontae's reaction would be more explosive. thankfully his reaction was to finally understand Nan Krai's confession & his rejection was so heartbreaking, but sweet. ***************************************************************** i get not wanting to give up when u have spent the better part of youth loving someone, but u got rejected directly & indirectly so many times. holding on will only hurt u - so i wish he put his mind to letting Tontae go. *****************************************this was the 1st ep in a while where i really enjoyed myself as there wasn't the broken communication or the annoying Somo. but that's coming to an end in the next ep ugh... but only 2 more ep's to go

all the scenes between the mains, feel like a travel promotional vid, where u see the village it's costumes & cultural, the tourist sights & cuisine... the romance isn't skin deep & that's why i am thankful that the most we get from them r hot kisses (& that's cause Tontae can kiss & is very comfortable in his skin - Hsia En looks uncomfortable in the NC scenes IMO). btw mentioning Hsia En, i was wondering if his twin is also in this BL & i have a sneaky suspicion that they both playing Victor (maybe there scene which one wasn't ready to perform, while the other was comfortable with...) as Hsia En got a beauty mark on his right cheek, near his mouth & that isn't always there. ************************************************************************************anyway hope now that Victor has left this get's interesting cause i was bored out ot my mind & was hanging on just to see how this is gonna get concluded. **********************************************************************************************************side note: Somo is annoying the heck out of me & the guys that work with Nan Krai r getting added to the list - shouldn't it be bros before ho's?!?? & here they were ready to cast a love spell on him just cause she's annoying & they can't tell her to f*ck off?? Not funny!

this whole ep felt like filler, i am NOT interested in anything the mains have to say to each other, cause they don't say anything - it's a lot of fluff & really wish they would've just dubbed Victor. having to listen to the nonsensical conversations r doing my head in, it's beyond cringe - heck it's down right stupid & annoying to watch. & their NC scene was so meeh. yeah they can kiss & make-out but it didn't move me cause there's no substance there. & i get the actors r trying but they just lack something & i aint buying that they already in-love. in lust more like - but like i mentioned in the previous ep Tontae & Nan Krai were like a volcano, while Tontae & Victor r not even a sparkler. such a bummer as i was rooting for Hsia En. ********************************& have to say the whole Somo character needs disappear into the background - cause she's freakin annoying & not funny IMO. the only one i cared to watch was Nan Krai, who was nursing his broken heart.
