It might be nice for them to rewind and show us what was going on with them the whole time. There's a play that was also a movie Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead which was Hamlet from the perspective of two very minor henchman characters - something like that.
Michael Kiettisak is killing it on Call It What You Want - he'd be a great partner for Earth. He's only been in CIWYW for maybe 5 minutes of run time, but you feel it.
This is so good that the 7.5 it has right now is criminal. I was expecting something silly and shallow like Lovely Writer (I mean the BL critique element), but this is f@#$ing dark as f@#$.
The acting was phenomenal, the pacing was perfect, the atmosphere claustrophobic and oppressive, I'm really blown away and so excited about this. This is a good day - not only did I get Neo, but now this.
The green screen took me out ????. That driving scene was Funny
It was bad. But the budget for this is probably extremely low - and I'd rather have the bad green screen than super-bad sound like amateur productions do when they use real streets.
Ooo I'm feeling this. I'm watching Lovely Writer at the same time.. they are both tackling the darker side of…
I'd be willing to bet $1M that the toxic breed of fans would say "This is so boring! James is creepy!" The chances of them seeing themselves in this critique = 0.
I totally agree about Pi and it’s going to be fun watching him change. Esp Phuwin who has turned out to be such…
He really is. I don't like Pi, but I thought Phuwin did a great job playing him, and he seems to have good comic timing. I think Pond managed to portray Mork as a really compelling lead - I love him. Seriously, I love him. And Neo.
I think the writing was a little overboard with how awful Pi was to Mork. It makes it hard to believe Mork would be interested in him. But it's only ep 1 and there's a lot to be excited about here.
i dont see Pi being an asshole. How can you say he’s awful and rude?? He was always getting bullied. Are you…
He was not bullied by Mork, and he was absolutely awful to him. He also assumed that his brother would for some reason trick him into going to the mall? That's pretty seriously ungenerous to your own brother who is trying to help you.
Being bullied is terrible, but it doesn't make it OK for you to treat people poorly. I get that Pi has to be obnoxious because it's the plot - the lesson will be that beauty is on the inside, and Mork will bring it out in him. I just think the writing took it too far, and it's hard to see why Mork would be interested in him at this point unless its a phyiscial attraction, which would make no sense for the theme. Pi's not even really very nice to anonymous Mork in the texting.
I don't blame Pi for being upset the night he was at the club, or even that he assumed Mork set him up - but he still treats him like crap the next day after Mork gives him an incredibly sincere apology. He automatically disliked Mork from the beginning because Mork is a friend of his crush. That's self-absorbed and immature, and he didn't even give Mork a chance, even though he was so relentlessly kind to him.
I don't hate the show or anything - I'm actually really excited about it and I really like Phuwin, I LOVE NEO!!! and I am excited about Pond - Mork is one of the most compelling leads I've seen.
I doubt they had sex, when he went back in. Or else since Pei Shou Yi have affection disorder, he would not let…
It's "affective disorder", which is mood-related like depression and bipolar disorder. I don't know if someone made a translation error or what, but it didn't make sense, plus this has never been mentioned before and is weird to introduce in the last ep.
is brothers good? iam okay with the other series , but iam skeptical about this one
Brothers is incredibly cute and very positive and affirming. It avoids tropes like problems caused by implausible miscommunication. When people have a misundertanding or fight, they talk it out - when they behave unreasonably, they apologize. If you watch it, you won't be sorry, although it could take a couple of eps to get into. The actors are not experienced, but they get way better as the series progresses. It's clearly aimed at younger viewers, but it's enjoyable if you're older, too.
I love it. I look forward to it more than anything else right now, and I usually tend to like darker series like History4.
*insert Adachi surprise sound here* Did we miss an episode or something??? WTF? How did we get from where the…
It was love at first sight for me with Richard Lee, and his pairing literally got no screen time until the very last scene, which was a huge WTF for me. I didn't even know they were together.
This was bad. The acting, superb. Costume design, best I've ever seen. Story, what story? I didn't even know the pair at the end were a pair! This was a meandering mess that didn't know what it wanted to be. In the end, we got some strange fan service to try to make everyone forget how pointless this season was.
Since when did Pei Shou Yi have a disassociative disorder? What even happened between him and Zhen Xuan at the end? We got a powerful and wonderfully delivered good-bye monologue from Zhen Xuan, and then essentially a "never mind!"
Unless the 3rd season rewinds and shows us Zhe Yu and Bing Wei's story, I can't think of anything that I'd want to see.
I can't say I hated this, because it had some nice things in it, but it was a wasted opportunity and a letdown after the excellent first season.
I love this! I laughed a lot watching this episode. I am in love with the couple already, so I will enjoy this…
I thought Pond was handsome in the trailer, but in this ep he's just - yikes. He's such a prince that my eyes would water whenever he was on screen because he was so kind, caring, thoughtful and what he looks like doesn't hurt...
He does have good comic timing - Neo (his brother) is also really good a comedy, so it helps to be playing off…
I love Neo so much. I hope he has a bigger role in this than he had in Tonhon, where I thought he totally stole the show. All the acting in this is really good so far. Pond is just... yikes. More than his looks it's the presence he has. Even though Mork is very reserved, you can almost see into him and know what wonderful person he is.
I'm actually really not a fan of changing the way you look to get someones attention or love just because of that…
I got the impression that what he really needs is be be more beautiful on the inside, and that Mork will be the person to bring that out in him. He may actually become more obnoxious if people are suddenly paying him more attention because he's better styled, and find himself sadder than he was to begin with.
The acting was phenomenal, the pacing was perfect, the atmosphere claustrophobic and oppressive, I'm really blown away and so excited about this. This is a good day - not only did I get Neo, but now this.

I agree, Neo has already gotten sexy - in 5 years I'll feel pain in my chest whenever he's on my screen.
