romanticizing manipulation

there were so many meaningless nsfw scenes that you could tell were filmed separately and randomly placed in between scenes. sorn's utter toxicity and manipulation was almost too much to handle. he constantly was made out to look like a "hero" in jun's life but in reality he always just forced jun into physical interactions that nobody asked for!!! the main leads had absolutely no chemistry, they never shared a moment of intimacy beyond sex until AFTER they started dating.. and even then it was crumbs. whenever the audience thought we were getting a cute moment they just started making out. jun is way too immature to be dating sorn, their relationship was built off the fact that sorn manipulated him into being friends with and even when jun acknowledges that he proceeds to.... confess his feelings??? sorn constantly says jun was "too young" when excusing his feelings for him and said he has trauma from his ex being too young but....... how young was she if sorn almost went to jail for it....... but anywho.. there were SO many scenes where jun verbally says "no" to sorn's advantages and yet sorn uses force to pin jun down. also DOES JUN HATE HIS OWN BOYFRIEND?!?!? there is never a moment where he doesn't look uncomfortable with sorn.

as for the side couple.. i honestly thought they were boring at first. but i'd take a boring consensual couple over the main leads ANY DAY. they honestly grew on me, i liked how they actually had development and we could ACTUALLY see they liked each other... i loved Thai's character because he always said exactly what i was thinking. he was the only character to call out sorn's utter manipulation.

also what was the point of the lesbian side couple? it's like they were an after thought. they tried giving them lore but never elaborated on it. i think it would've been better if they were a couple since episode one and just kept it a secret from the work space while everyone thinks they dislike each other. there was no need for Penny to be friends with benefits with sorn and there was no reason for the writers to tell us they were "ex lovers" and not give us the backstory. there were just so many gaps and not even just with the lesbians but with the main and side couples as well.

i cannot stress enough how bad this show pmo, there are so many things i didn't even mention. watch if you only care about NC scenes i suppose lmao
