I might be in the minority here, but the couple I am enjoying most at the moment is Mek/Boss. It is definitely not an original storyline, but it's a classic one, and I am feeling it...
I like Bohn/Duen as well, but the subject of their plot this week was a turn-off.
Does anyone else want to b**ch-slap Tutor right about now? Perhaps before making a drastic decision he could at least talk to his boyfriend about it. You know, like an adult.
And please forgive me for momentarily shipping Tutor & Zon in part 4. Sorry, sorry, sorry! >_< I really didn't mean it! It was a very brief lapse! I am on team SaifahZon, really! It was great to see them together again. I was also reminded just how absurdly handsome Zon is...
They are really pushing the boat out with these sex scenes :D Fighter looked like he'd been electrocuted with Tutor put his hand 'down there'. I'm loving how Tutor is not passive and practically begs for it x_x
The Saifah/Zon cuddle was super cute, and I'm glad they included it, but I wanted so much MORE...
social distancing made me give the 2nd ep a chance, but I just cannot get through.things are moving super fast…
I just dropped it halfway through ep 2. This show gives me the creeps. Bad acting, bad script, bad casting, bad vibes. I'll stick with 2gether and WhyRU, thank you very much.
Episode 9 was the hottest BL episode we've got in a while, but it was bordeline cheesy. Like, from romantic dinner…
I agree, the first three parts were a little cringey and disappointing....but I am inclined to forgive and forget because part 4 made up for it. I would say I am looking forward to "Sexy beach vacation part 2" but actually now I'd rather see how Zon reacted to that kiss last week...
i kinda feel like he does. His actions shows that he knows that Sarawat likes him but maybe his kinda confused…
This was the first episode where you could see him just starting to connect the dots...there is a little glimmer in his brain, lol. Bet he will put it down to drunkenness, though...
I can't believe I am saying this, but I am thinking of dropping this after just one episode. I guess I will give it one more chance, but I am astonished at how bad ep 1 was: bad acting, cringey and unoriginal plot, and the sorriest, most unattractive excuse for a 'campus heartthrob' I have ever seen. A SERIOUS miscasting error was made here, beyond which the character of Gun is pushy, awkward, selfish and disrespectful of others' boundaries. What a disaster of a guy.
hmm i wonder how this will end... starting to think that they Zon is trapped in that book or something everything…
I'm waiting to see how Zon takes it when he finds out that Zol didn't change the book like she said she did...surely he must find out at some point. Predicting an epic freakout. At any rate, if it's all down to the book's spell.....it's a spell I don't want to see broken...
Oh, Tine...... There must be a limit to how clueless and unobservant a human can be. Surely even a total idiot would have noticed by now - so please snap out of it, because you are at the tipping point between being cutely naive to being annoyingly dense and self-absorbed.
I wasn't too keen on this show at first, but after ep 4 it's growing on me....
First of all, who else thinks Soda is badass?! I could watch her all day long.
Moving on to the main points...
The Zon/Saifah kiss was perfect. I've been waiting for it and it actually gave me a whole-body hot flash, lol. At the beginning of this series I thought that Saifah was the weakest actor/character, but he has totally won me over now.
However, I feel this episode was disappointing on a few fronts. This was the first episode where I felt like the production values really slipped. Why? They were doing such an amazing job up until this point. I felt there were bad moments with editing, sound and composition. What happened? And seriously, why couldn't they find some extras to fill the empty seats at the concert? And what was up with the terrible Zon/Saifah concert outfits? Were they meant to be ironic in some way...? Maybe a reference or joke I didn't get...?
Beyond that, I felt that the Tutor jealousy bit felt plonked in there, and I didn't feel any emotion behind it. However, I am really looking forward to the beach trip.
And finally, what was with that weird 1-minute Blue/Champ montage? It was pointless and confusing and felt like someone decided to cram it in there for no reason. I have not read any of the novels, but just going by the TV series I don't see why they are even included, as they aren't given enough screen time to develop or for us to care about.
Ep 7 threw me as well. I watched it last night, lay in bed awake thinking about it, and had to re-watch it this…
Ok so Kate has made me watch the sister scene for a third time! lol
I interpret it differently. I don't think Tutor indicated that he was unsure of his own feelings. In fact, he opens with 'so if you kiss someone, and you have feelings for that person...' I think his roundabout, questioning tone was like a softer way of telling her what he feels rather than saying bluntly 'I'm gay and I like a guy!'. I felt he was asking her for guidance about what a kiss means so he could figure out what it meant to Fighter, not to him.
But that's just my interpretation. I think it could be read either way!
In general I think this ep could have been presented in a better way that had more emotional impact. For a confession scene it didn't have the impact that it should have had.
Okay, so here I am again, this time with a bit of frustration. I have not read the novel so everything I am saying…
Ep 7 threw me as well. I watched it last night, lay in bed awake thinking about it, and had to re-watch it this morning.
Before I get into F & T.....the Zon/Saifah scenes were so cute, and the sound effects when Zon saw 'that thing' in part 2...lol, perfect. I think this ep marks SIX attempts by Saifah to kiss Zon, all rebuffed (locker room; in the rain; sofa in music room; on his bed x3). Maybe I've missed one...? Perhaps he will be 7th-time lucky?!
First of all, re: the sister talk, I think Tutor was admitting to his sister that he likes a guy and fishing for a sign of approval - after all, she is the only family member left in his life. For Tutor I think that knowing you have feelings for someone and being cool/confident with those feelings are two different things, and when Fighter is giving off crazily mixed signals I think it is reasonable to be a bit confused and unsure. As for Fighter, when he said he knew he had feelings for Tutor from the very start: NO WAY! I think he knew he was attracted but in major denial mode even up until that scene, so that line rang false. As for the sister's little talk with Fighter, I think that was her gentle way of offering him encouragement and prompting him to resolve what she described as an 'unclear relationship'. It was kind of sweet.
I think the rooftop scene was handled badly. Tutor was saying 'okay, it's late, I'm going home, seeya' and Fighter suddenly grabs his arm and starts yet again with the 'do you actually think I like you?' line. It felt forced and unnatural to say that at that point. Frankly, it was weird, and felt plunked out of nowhere. Also, I would have preferred it if Tutor had responded with telling him straight up how he felt rather than playing the 'who looks away first?' game, as it would have solidified his position as the more assertive and honest one in the relationship. If they had to play that game, Tutor should have said 'ten' and immediately looked away. That would have been way cuter!
STILL, at least some progress was made, even if it was handled in an awkward way. Loving this show so much!

Thanks to all the cast and crew for such an amazing show that made me happy every single week.
Cannot wait to see what happens with SaifahZon next week! 0_0

And finally...round of applause for Kae :D

I love how Tutor took charge and really asked for it :D
If I'm not convinced by ep 2, it's out.

A mixed bag this week, really!
