I find it disturbing. It seems to be a fetish in most Asian dramas. Like toxic parents are necessary for shows to be dramatic. Sanha's mother is in denial, irresponsible, and toxic while Haejun's mother abandoned him like yesterday's trash. On the other hand Sanha's dad feels like a coward against his mother and Haejun's aunt spouts nonsense and crappy advise. SMH, is it such a taboo for adoptive families to be close and actually be functional like a true family?

📢 Attention Real Lusi Fans: Your Official Guide to Blocking Shen Li & Co. Like a Boss:

My fellow sane, drama-loving, here-to-enjoy-our-girl-thrive Zhao Lusi fans — this one’s for us. 🌸

If you’ve been on kisskh for more than five minutes, you’ve probably seen the usual suspects — those hater gremlins (e.g. Shen Li) who camp in every Zhao Lusi thread like they’re collecting rent, spreading the same tired script:

👉 "Fake illness!"
👉 "Copycat queen!"
👉 "Overrated!!"

We know the drill. And we’re done entertaining it.

So here’s an Official Step-By-Step Guide to Blocking Haters & Preserving Your Sanity:

Step 1: Identify the Species 🔎
Haters like Shen Li aren’t mysterious — they’re louder than a palace eunuch announcing the Emperor’s arrival and twice as desperate for attention. Their whole personality is "hating Lusi," and frankly? It’s embarrassing.

Step 2: Block with the Elegance of a Heroine kneeing the villain where the sun don't shine 💅
No back-and-forth. No explaining. Just click-block-done. Treat it like removing gum from your shoe — gross, but quick.

Step 3: Assign Them to NPC Status 🎭
Once blocked, they are no longer people — they are uncredited background extras in our Lusi-loving kingdom. What they say? Irrelevant. What they think? Don’t care.

Step 4: Blocking = Self-Care for Drama Fans ✨
This isn’t about "fearing debate" — it’s about protecting your good vibes so you can watch Lusi shine without some basement philosopher ruining your mood.

Step 5: Curate Your Feed Like a Royal Garden 🌸
Here’s your quick checklist:

"Fake illness" theorists = Blocked & reported to the Royal Quack Council.
"Copycat queen" screechers = Blocked & encouraged to develop original thoughts.
"She’s only famous because XYZ" whiners = Blocked & advised to discover what true talent is.
Repeat offenders who stalk her tags like unpaid investigators? Preemptive block — do not pass Go.

Step 6: Remember — We Are Not Their Babysitters 👏
We’re here for dramas, cute behind-the-scenes clips, and Lusi slaying roles. We are not here to provide free therapy to people who hate-watch her entire filmography while claiming they can’t stand her.

Final Reminder:
Blocking is not weakness — it’s positive energy.
This is kisskh, not MyFreeForAllTrollList.

So block boldly, my friends — and let the only drama we experience be the fictional kind, starring our girl Zhao Lusi.

Now go forth and curate your peaceful feed like the Zhao Lusi-loving royalty you are. 👑✨

Kaokla didn’t exactly go full dark and evil like I expected. Sure, he hit back at Saikim’s father and humiliated her in public, a lot, but most of that humiliation was a direct result of her father’s actions and, to some extent, Saikim’s own choices. It wasn’t like he was out there plotting world domination; he was just done playing nice.

He’s not a pure-hearted green flag, but he’s not completely a walking red flag either. He lives comfortably in the morally grey zone—calculating but with clear boundaries, especially when it comes to actual crimes or outright evil. He wasn’t trying to be a villain; he was just deeply wounded. And instead of quietly nursing that pain, he wanted Saikim to feel every bit of the misery he went through. Even then, Kla never intended to truly harm Kim.

The emotional trauma? Off the charts, for both Kla and Kim. I’m still reeling from it. It was so intense that I had no choice but to sit down, process it, and then pour my feelings into a review because there was no way I was moving on without unpacking all that angst.

Yaya is impressive. First time seeing her in a thriller/mystery genre. I loved her as the fierce and resilient Jeerawat, the innocent and hopeful Saikim, and the flirty and loyal Anong. I was very surprised she can realistically play a serious nuanced character like Dalah. Her deadpan gaze gave me the chills. I honestly believed she would kill for revenge. Who knew she had this side to her? Her acting range is phenomenal and it just cemented her as one of my favorite actresses.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some people just have that face that makes you pause mid-stroll and you run into a lamp post. I think the male lead is good-looking, but looks alone don’t seal the deal for me. If he can actually act? Suddenly, he’s very attractive. And if his character is well-written on top of that? Now we’re in ‘dangerously swoon-worthy’ territory. Basically, talent and depth make people hotter—science or my personal bias confirms it.

I love the OST too. Gives me Eminem vibes. 💓

I think it makes sense. Because, obviously, the best way to destroy villains… is to become one. Just join them so he can burn it down from the inside. Hoping for S2, I love a morally conflicted antihero.

I had to look them up, and if what I found is true—wow. Against all odds, they stuck it out. That’s either true love , sheer stubbornness, or both. I respect that - and honestly, impressive. Here’s hoping they get their well-deserved happily ever after - the perfect comeback to those delusional fans.

I feel bad for both of them, her and the guy. It’s honestly disturbing how some fans become so obsessed that they feel entitled to dictate who idols can be friends with. Imagine living under that kind of scrutiny—where complete strangers monitor your every move, dissect your personal life, and even resort to online harassment just because they don’t approve of your choices. It’s not just unhealthy; it’s dehumanizing. No one, no matter how famous, deserves to be treated like a puppet for other people’s fantasies. At the end of the day, idols are human beings with their own emotions, relationships, and boundaries. If you truly support them, that should include respecting their right to live their lives freely.

I hear you. I’m still new to K/C/Thai dramas, but in just a year, I’ve seen more cruelty, misinformation, and online bullying than I ever thought possible. This isn’t just a specific culture or fandom issue—it’s a global one. Some places wear their toxicity louder than others, but the harm is the same.

I heard her family is taking legal action against a YouTuber who has been harassing her, invading her privacy, and spreading hateful lies. If that’s true, I genuinely hope they win—not just for her, but for everyone who has ever been torn apart by reckless words. Maybe then, platforms and people will think twice before turning someone's life into hateful entertainment. Misinformation shouldn’t be entertainment. Hate shouldn’t be a business model. And silence shouldn’t be the only response.

So I hope that celebrities, fans, and even bystanders stop being silent. Kindness shouldn’t be quiet in the face of cruelty. As Edmund Burke said, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing.” We have voices - I hope more of us choose to use them for something better.

I fell in love with his acting in My Cherie Amour too. His chemistry with Yaya is phenomenal.

This is actually hilarious. After binging Bad Romeo, the comedy and romance in this drama is refreshing.

We all make mistakes, and often, we’re our own harshest critics. The weight of guilt can be heavy - much heavier than anyone else would place on us. We can’t control how others respond or force forgiveness. We can only hope for understanding and kindness. Forgiveness is a crucial tool for personal growth and essential for our own well-being. It’s a gift we give ourselves and others - to heal and move forward. Wherever you are now, I hope you’ve found the peace that this world sometimes struggles to offer. A place beyond pain, where anger, hate, and regret can no longer reach you. RIP.

And some folks are trying to get people to boycott her upcoming work under false rumors and accusations that the drama is the reason for her illness.

I'm only on episode 3, and I’m already stressing about how dark Kla is going to get—because damn, I currently adore his character. And the actor? WOW. I was not prepared for him to be that attractive—and I’m not just talking about looks. The way he carries the role? Instant obsession.

I miss her too. She's a fighter. She'll only get stronger.

Oh, so the “norm” now is blindly jumping on a bandwagon that trashes someone’s reputation, hard work, and career? Get off your high horse. She opened up about her depression—honestly admitting she didn’t take it seriously at first but is now working hard to heal. Nowhere did she drag this drama or the production team into it. Yet here you are making wild assumptions on her behalf, as if that helps. Remove your blinders or whatever you're on because your rant doesn’t help Lusi. It's actually hurting her professionally, emotionally, and mentally. You really think these rumors just magically appear out of goodwill? No, they exist to tear her down, to undo years of dedication and hard work. And every time someone, like you, spreads them without a shred of confirmation or proof, they’re basically handing the wrecking ball over and saying, “Here, swing harder.” But sure, let’s pretend this rumors are about “concern” and not just fueling a smear campaign.

I fell in love with this—my first Thai drama—and was completely swept away by the phenomenal performances of the leads. 💖 The script had the potential to be just as strong, but the dragged-out miscommunication tested my patience. For two otherwise frank characters, their reluctance to simply confess and say “I love you” felt out of place. They kept assuming that the other loved someone else. 😆

Wichai’s near-death experience should’ve been a wake-up call, yet he kept running—both from Anong and himself. Credit to her, though—her wit and persistence never wavered, even as he fled like a scared little b***. I had a feeling he also secretly enjoyed watching her chase him.🤣Of course, it takes another near-death moment for him to finally step up and fully commit.

Also, the rushed redemption arc for Wichai’s mother aside, I devoured this drama in a single day. Despite its flaws in the script, it had a hold on me and makes their story memorable.

All these speculations, all these opinions wrapped in outrage and disguised as guidance—they’re just noise, distractions to be ignored. The only voice that truly matters in her life is her own. The only choices that hold weight are the ones she makes for herself.

This is her journey, her struggles, her triumphs. Her burdens to carry, her victories to claim. Those who truly believe in her—her strength, her resilience—know that every obstacle is simply another mountain waiting to be conquered, another storm she will weather and rise from, stronger than before.

So I hope Lusi takes this role and owns it. Slay it girl! I hope she faces every challenge ahead with fire in her heart and leaves no doubt about the force she is. Because this is her story to write, and she is more than ready to turn the page.

These toxic fans are twits. I’ve seen the hate not just on TWOT pages but across other recent dramas too. Blaming someone completely unrelated—just because they were co-workers, had a similar genre, or, heaven forbid, their drama was more successful—is next-level ridiculous.

War/military romances are tricky and very subjective. My bar is set at the likes of Pearl Harbor, Cold Mountain, and Casablanca, so I’ve been lurking on TWOT discussions, trying to decide if it’s worth my time. I had hopes because of CZY—I liked him in Hidden Love, and he’s got potential. But from what I’ve read, the show is very slow, possibly weighed down by directing, writing, or editing issues. Heavy topics like PTSD and depression can hit hard, especially if the ending fumbles.

And then there are the toxic fans. Nothing kills my interest in a drama faster than a fandom that treats it like a battleground. Anything that doesn't praise it is taken personally. So for now, TWOT is sitting comfortably on my “maybe someday” list—far, far away from all this nonsense.
