"Lets date". they say and what they do in the next scene? play volleyball! what a great romance! This is a nice movie cut into 8 pieces but it lacks romance and passion. Even the climax where a lover is running like crazy to see his love was cut to same old swing with same old bromance. please tell them to make longer series with real romance. And why they afraid to show kiss even on cheeks?
the actors playing Day and Itt in Unforgotten Night are way better than the actors chosen in this series. Why they cant choose right actors for the role? They could have chose the actors playing Niel and Night for the role of Day and Itt. Even the guest lovers of Itt are better than the main couple. The person playing Kamol in Unforgotten Night was also wrong choice. The actor playing Kamol in Unforgotten Night is looking like a gay doll rather a mafia! I think Thai BL industry prefer boyish looking slim small actors even for the mature characters. (Kinn proshe was an exception)
comment before watching the series - This production house loves to make sad gay stories! They even ruined Ben X Jim in season 2 after the success of season 1. (Ironically, In the trailer of this series, they are proudly quoting season 1, not season 2!) One of the reason Ben X Jim got success was their leads who had a charm but this series don't have those kind of charming actors. Eli has a certain kind of charm and great body too for the role of school jock and he is acting good but the guy playing Nikko is not suitable for the character. I have watched many movies and series in India where a dying lead character is trying to live his/her life fully ignoring his/her illness (Like movies Anand and Milli) so the concept is nothing new to me. I have not watched the series yet, but I know they will ruin it somehow.
comment After watching episode 2 - This is a copy of popular Netflix series Heartstopper about a nerd and a star school boy. They even imitated those heat and arrow animations from heartstopper. I know there will be some serious illness later like everybody crying. lets see what they want to show in rest of the episodes.
comment after watching episode 5 - illness appears and track of the story changed. I feel the romance was not given enough time to be developed between the leads so it is unbelievable whatever they will show us in the second half of the series. In real life, nobody scarifies for the love who is at the level of unanswered promposal level only. Maybe Eli will do everything he could for Nikko but is it due to love? or may be it is not love but sympathy?
comment after watching episode 7 - It looks like I have skipped an episode or they forgot to make it. There is story jump and due to it is very difficult to understand why Eli is doing whatever he is doing.
comment after watching episode 10 - The prom scene was the best scene of the series which brought tears in my eyes. with all the flaws it has, the ending is satisfying som how. Making hope of season 2, I will wait for the next part.
The harassments in the starting episodes by Ha Ram is not acceptable. He is clearly crossing boundaries. It is like Indian Moves and series where Hero /male actor harasses the female lead and after a little resistance, she falls in love with her harasser. So unrealistic and bad example for youth. But later, Ha Ram becomes so understanding and true lover that I forgot his earlier behavior.
On The other hand, Lee Jun is a problem since the beginning. The guest actor he met in the beginning and dumped him due to his stupid rule, he was better actor and more sexy/good looking than him. He should have been casted as main lead.
Lee Jun treated Ha Ram in the same way as he was treated by his ex. (not exactly the same. He broke up face to face, not over sms). Even after that, Ha Ram accepts him. This shows that Ha Ram truly loves him.
Both the leads of this series wore so much lipstick on the lips that they were looking Red Apples.
Kiss scenes were nice. Ha Ram swimming scenes were good. At last they dared to show their bulges in BL series. I was wondering why they afraid to show Bulges even in the most natural situations? Overall it is a nice BL. I can watch it again after some time.
I love the series and want another season. I wish they could start a new season with new writers if possible. People are always fucked up in this world but there should be a new beginning always. I care only about the characters in the series. I don't know the production team and their struggles. This series has seen many ups and downs since the first look video ages ago. All the love the series is getting only due to the series, not due to the personal life of the production team. we should not mix them. I hope they will make season 2 and bring happiness in the life of all the fans soon.
all the people who have reached to the last episode and find it creepy are hypocrite because they knew from the beginning about the age difference. Age difference is never an issue in loving someone, nor loving a friend of a relative. I know what is bothering them. It is the choice of the actor who played older cooper. Audience including me cant accept the new face of cooper. It would be better if they didn't have changed the actors to play older versions. They should have made them look older by using makeup only. We are used to see in Thai BL that the same actor studying in university is shown in his school life just by change of uniform (white shirt -blue half pants) and change of hairstyle. Almost all the love this series is getting due to cooper so replacing him with some really horrible creepy smiled actor was a BIG mistake.
over-acting, bad direction, bad editing, bad writing. bad choice of supporting actors. only main leads, their kissing and sex scenes are good but they cant save this series.
What is it with Korean BL’s and the dead fish style of kissing?
I agree. I think they are straight actors who don't want to kiss another male or it may be director's choice not to show intimate kissing as it may repulse straight audience. A real kiss actually represent the depth of the couple so they should include at least one real kiss.
The innocence of the sky is lost here. I liked his hair style in My Day but I don't know they changed his hair style in this series. Do all people change hair style after 2 years? Teejay Marquez was better in Ben X Jim. I think it is not the fault of actors here. It is Xion Lim. He has lost his magic of Myday. This is not a sequel of Myday. It is a remake sort of thing with few characters of previous series. and its official. Ace and Sky are broke up.
the first six episodes were going towards a beautiful and satisfying climax but last two episodes were giving a feeling of clips of remining six episodes. I mean, this series failed to give proper ending and conflict resolution. The main characters separate, meet after two years, one character was drunk and he promised he will wait for other in that very drunken state. and in the next episodes, they were again doing things like lovers! no kiss even on cheeks even in the last episode. a disaster.
I really got curious, that's why I watched the trailer... And upon hearing the soundtrack/theme song of the season…
As far as I know, the actor who played Ace had a huge fight with the production compony and he posted a video with tearful eyes on social media (you will get ll the links on My Day MDL page) so he will never return in this series. They should have retained the character of ACE with any new actor as it will be very hard to digest that Sky has forgot his first love and started dating another guy. lets see how they convince us.
I like Masumi but hate Ritsu for what he had done with him even after masumi forgave him. 1 years of cheating and breaking a person completely cannot be washed of with few tears and sorries when there is no proof that you will not do the same again. Ritsu cannot live without sex with multi partners and he is proud of this fact. disgusting. besides this point, series is great. sex scenes are very sexy! kisses' are bold. maybe second season will tell us if Ritsu has changed really or not.

Things I liked -
1)all the characters are likable, good, caring, loving (even the female characters!) .
2) Almost all actors are good looking, sexy, have great body,
3) good acting,
4) loving moments, funny moments,
5) great concept, positive ending,
6) great locations,
7) kisses, last sex scenes,
8) all the deleted scenes (Why they deleted them?)
Things I don't like -
1) some unrealistic/unbelievable incidents in the story, loopholes in plot (like why phu left for 10 years, why they didn't expressed their love to each other till the last episodes? )
2) some cliché in the direction like one character asks something bit other character keep smiling instead of answering the question.
3) lack of skin (it is like a crime not to show those great bodies of the lead actors, he he he)
4) too much dragging the concept of not expressing your love (it was dragged till 7th episode)
5) when the leads expressed their love to each other in the 9th episode, that should be more powerful, moving and deep as the whole story was built for this moment. . but it was rushed. and than its effect was ended within few seconds by the bad news and tears.
I am looking forward for the second season. I hope they hire some good writers and read comments of this page before shooting.
