Kong did invite Film to "go home together", and the look on their faces suggested he didn't mean "coincidentally walk in the same general direction towards separate residences."

I choose to fill in the blanks in the most prurient way possible, but that's just me. So Kong's parents are away from the weekend and the boys only pause for pizza deliveries.

But seriously, it was cute and perfect.

Rossi is like a sexier version of Peak Peemapol. I love that they cast a darker guy and didn't coat his face in white makeup.

That was wonderful - the dialogue was smart, witty, and charming, and I liked the no-nonsense pursuit of each other, with no evil girfriends, no accidental kisses, nobody tripping and being caught and stared at, and both boys were on a basketball TWICE without either injuring their ankle in a comically stupid-looking fall.

It deserves higher than 7.8. I can't give it a 10 because it doesn't go beyond a perfectly-executed piece of fluff, but it's a solid 9 for me. I loved it.

At first I was thinking "why high school?" Especially because they're flirting was very adult. But then the shy innocence of the last scene justified it.

Can somoene petition the Thai government to change the uniform to white sneakers or something? Even the sexiest boy's looks are marred by the black dress shoe-white sock combo.

They're flirting was more like between 30-year olds, but I was still totally onboard.

Ugly and older is fine - there are characters I like a lot that aren't conventionally attractiv, like Oat in Country Boy or anything else he's been in. But it would be nice if Nut had an ounce of charm or screen presence. I'll give it one more ep, but I'm going in with low expectations.

The actor isn't even physically ugly - if he had a nice personality and got a good night's sleep he'd be attractive.

Thank you! I'll watch it.

4/10. I'd have give it a 1, but the cast was trying so hard, and the production crew did a great job. But the writing and directing were so bad that it was nearly unwatchable afrer te first couple of eps. Nothing happened - everyone just kept going in circles. It was a missed opportunity with such an attractive and talented cast. I'd have probably given it a 6 or maybe even a 7 if it had a redeeming finale, but it was so bad I couldn't believe it - none of the secondary storylines went anywhere at all, and the main couple ended up with conclusion less satisfying than their making up after one of their thrice-an-espisode psycho jealousy misunderstanding sulks. If I could go back in time, I would definitely skip it.

Aww, thanks! Now I'm blushing!

That really has no place in BL - it's an important issue, but this is not the genre to explore it. If the writer was holding out for that, then someone needs to slap her. Same when they have main characters run over by a truck in the last ep - this is escapist fantasy, not tragedy.

I hope so too!

True. But there was no staff and Bbomb's mother was cleaning the kitchen herself. If you were a gazillionaire living in a gigantic palace, would you even know where the kitchen was? I'm never bothered by fantasy elements, like everyone being rich - but within the rules they set, it needs to make sense or you're sitting there thinking "it must take her an entire day just to vacuum that place."

Someone else told me about it - I don't remember the name - it's a game where you have to get to be friends with a new guy, which is why all the popular boys in the school inexplicably want to be friends with Tae.

I couldn't find Mind Trio - is it called something else?

I also like that Pinoy BLs don't exist in a fantasy world where everyone is fantastically super-rich and all live in palaces - we actually get some class difference and exploration of issues related to this.

I agree about the spiking - it's not as bad as a DRD, but that's like saying "he didn't rape her, he only sexually assaulted her."

I don't think BL writers give much thought at all to what makes sense from a sexuality POV. BL main characters are straight. They only go gay for one guy, ever. But it's forever. Gay characters are all like the fundashi - loud, flamboyant, and ridiculous. Because real men can't be gay. Sorry, I sound bitter, and that's not always the case - like in He's Coming to Me, Ohm is explicitly gay. But Nitiman decided to go for every regressive trait it could get its hands on.

Thinking about it, you're right, by the time he was with Aim, he was already far enough along with his feelings for Bbomb that he should not have used her like that.

Don't get me wrong, it's terrible. But some trainwrecks are more entertaining than others.

This is a good review - you should paste into a real one.

If I could go back in time and drop it when you did, I would go back further in time and drop it earlier. So you definitely made the right decision.

Haha - got it. Yes, I noticed that a few times.

Later on Noh does demonstrate acting ability including some fairly strong and subtle expressions of emotion, so I think it's bad directing and writing more than him - I was pretty critical of him at first too.

I don't mind drunk kissing - if both chracters are drunk, not just one. Drunk kissing between people who got drunk together is something they decided to do together. A sober guy showing up later and kissing a drunk guy is a little creepy unless they're already boyfriends. And no matter what the situation, kissing a guy who threw up before he thoroughly brushes his teeth is completely disgusing - it's almost as bad as watching someone eat poo.

BTW, it didn't get better after Ep 4. It got much worse. Absolutely nothing happened.

Your review title is much better than mine - it made me laugh. I agree on just about everything with what you wrote. Spiking his drink with Viagra is fairly mild, but that can still be dangerous if you have certain conditions or its mixed with other drugs you might be taking and should be prescribed by a doctor. But it's just another element of the completely incoherent and totally counterproductive "plan" the frisnds had. As if Jin & Bbomb didn't aleady suffer from nearly psychotic jealousy issues, the friends thought it would be a good idea to exacerbate them?

If a guy is sexually confused, he's not deliberately using the woman. I'm gay and I had girlfriends - I didn't know I was gay, I just thought there was something wrong with me that girls didn't do anything for me, so I can forgive that part, especially since Jin felt really bad about it and apologized and talked it out. But everything else about this series still sucked.

LOL, yes. I did say he's a good actor. But he has an adult confidence underlined by his looks.'

BTW, I'm a lot older than he is - you never stop treating your mom that way. They usually won't let you.
