Hey, I have to keep up my image. At least Seng hasn't committed first degree murder. In He's Coming to Me, that was forgiven with an apology. Or in Siew Sum Noi, "I'm sorry I tried to beat your son to death in a homophobic rage." "It's OK, he lived."
I forgot - the doctor lady just seems like "stock vaguely evil female character Type II". Sometimes she looks…
I agree with all that, especially editing issues. This is a fairly straightfoward story and there shouldn't be any doubt in the audience's mind as to whether or not that was a dream or really happened. No purpose is served by making it vague, so it's either an error or a bad decision.
They keep referring to the vaguely evil shareholder lady as "Doctor", so I assume she's some sort of doctor. Or maybe it's a translation error in the subtitles. Why does a family business have a shareholder in the first place? And is she the only shareholder? It doesn't make too much sense. Maybe the Thai term actually used means "partner" or "investor". But if there's one thing that's fairly consistent in BL, it's that writers are not too familiar with the business world.
That's why in Cutie Pie a corporate CEO is making copies or that everyone uses paper. Beside the fact that nobody makes copies anymore, I doubt any CEO has ever even looked directly at a copy machine. I work in real estate, and not even commercial leases are in hard-copy form anymore. I'm not sure I even remember what my own signature looks like.
EP11 was not bad but the most basic one yet, there is a little progress in Khim and Sun, and I am still unable…
I forgot - the doctor lady just seems like "stock vaguely evil female character Type II". Sometimes she looks like she's going to unhinge her jaw and devour Rain, but I'm sure he has that effect on a lot of people. I thought she wanted to marry him, but it was strange in that case for her to emphasize their age difference.
Was it just me, or did they hit the former owner dying a lot, and play horror-movie music whenever Rain was anywhere alone? I was thinking "they're not going to throw a ghost ino this already unnecessarily complicated plot, are they?"
Anyway, Rain & Payoo are one of the hottest and most compelling couples I've seen in a while, and if they don't get to be happy I will burn things down.
I agree with this. I feel like there is some major death foreshadowing going on here. I also agree with the couples'…
I don't think that actually happened - I think it was just Payoo's dream. The next scene he wakes up, and Rain doesn't seem like the type of person that would just pretend it didn't happen like that. But I had the exact same thought about the sand that you did. Sex on the beach sounds so romantic until you try it, and then it's just awful. There are bugs all over the sand, for one thing, and you need to use body parts that really, really need to be sand-free.
Totally agree. I feel nothing when they're together. They don't complement each other on the acting level. And…
OK, you guys are making me think that I'm not the only person in the world that feels this way. I couldn't even get through UMWA - I kept forgetting it was on and never got around to watching the finale. I called them "Waterworks andhis Mannequin". Fluke is cute, but he's never allowed to do anything but cry and faint, and if they tried to get Ohm to do anything except stand around looking serious he'd probably malfunction and blow a few circuits.
Anyway, Fluke needs a new partner because this isn't working. Even though I desperately want Rain with Payoo, I was totally shipping Sun with Rain in that one scene where he performed with him, but then Noh could generate chemistry with a fencepost. Maybe even with Ohm.

Sometimes I can be a little dramatic.
I'm still working on watching it - I think this series is superb, but it's hard to watch too much at once because everyone is so awful. Seng has climbed into my top rank of actors.
Anyway, I'm not one of those people that forgive all the awful and selfish things people do just because they have some minor redemption at the end, or if someone even more awful does something bad to them.
I have to say that I'm disappointed - I really liked the first two episodes - I rated it a 9 - but why is it that even when the writer comes up with an interesting and different premise, they can't stop themselves from degenerating into the same old BL tropes and formulas? He were are, back in a college setting, with really stupid misunderstandings, like jealousy because a guy is just talking to another person. Sigh. I had to struggle to get through Ep 4 and it's only a few minutes long.
Well, we didn't know about Kim's stair-climbing superpowers either.
I watched it because I was washing my hands and didn't want to miss anything important in any scene with Payoo or Rain. It was quite insane.
I thought I was going to start lighting things on fire when Payoo was stuck in that endless and pointless scene with Baibua. They could have had Payoo fantasizing about Rain instead. Or just had him taking an unnecessary shower. Or just standing around looking pretty. Anyhing.
Dropped it after 3 episodes. Can anyone tell me that it gets better and I should pick it up again? I typically…
The first episode was the worst, and it went downhill from there. Ep 10 and Pleng still hasn't taken a gratuitous shower, so I'm starting to lose hope.
Wouldn't it have made more sense to just push the elevator button, wait to see which floor Sun stopped on, then board the other car and follow him up?
The indicator was rising a floor per second, so Kim ran up 25 flights of stairs, including running out to to check the elevator several times, in 30 seconds (being generous and assuming the elevator paused at the 25th floor for 5 seconds before the door opened). There were 28 steps between each floor (let's ignore the landings and all his detours to the elevator lobbies), so he climbed 23 stairs per second. Sprinting with broad paces, let's say 3 paces per second, meaning he was leaping 8 steps per pace. He's tall, but is he THAT tall?
The point being that stretching the lawss of physics that violently makes something eye-rolling stupid, not cute or romantic, and hurls you out of the story and into hyper-sarcasic hate-posting. All they needed to do was, just once, show the elevator making an intermediate stop, say a janitor getting on with a cart and then stopping again to get off, and it would have been enough to suspend disbelief.
But as it was, I demand to know why Kim has never used his superpowers until just now. And what the f@#$ is that grey thing he's wearing over his shirt?
Also, Payoo's father should be shot. Payoo was JUST ABOUT TO take off his shirt when he knocked.
