well, you got me BOC... fully thought they were doing a repeat of the Dead Friends Forever ambiguous ending when Tyme and Great were looking at his watch right at the end... i was so ready for the cut ending... never laughed so loudly at a BL before once the moment dropped... well done BOC nicely played
i'm glad the rating is going up slowly, the series deserves a much higher debut rating on here, super excited about the next episode and how the story will play out even just from the first episode - would be interested to know if anyone knows how the ratings on MDL are measured? like does it break down into different types of engagement?
everything about this show, the styling, the camera angles, the music, the silly white shirts, and even the fact that it is a completely bonkers non-chronological storyline that needs to be all resolved in only one more episode, is just absolutely HIGH CAMP. its just such elevated high camp television and i love it
I am afraid everything depends on whether BOC wants to ship Ta with Copper or Barcode... Since jef left BOC ,…
i think they're setting up copper as ta's partner though regardless, because they were a pair on the reality show leading up to DFF called "the hidden character" - I think because they won that as a pair they got the lead roles in this series? not sure though, but pretty certain they are going to be a pairing
True, it has deeper and darker themes and questions, but we have to remember its also operating within the BL genre, which is centered around romantic relationships primarily. Exciting to have the romance and darker themes intertwined imo
so...would y'all recommend this drama? i only know like 2 actors in this but it looks intriguing.
Absolutely! Tonnes of commentary about the human condition, can we ever be fully good people? Plus messy messy relationship drama and plot twists galore
Has anyone else noticed the use of light pink clothing in the series within the Phee/Non/Jin dynamic? At first, Non wore this specific shade of light pink shirt when on the lake date with Phee. Later, we see Phee wearing the same shade of pink shirt when he takes Jin to the same lake, and the camera strap Phee uses is ALSO the same shade of pink (and matching in style to Jin's camera strap). AND THEN in the present day, Jin is wearing a waterproof jacket that is the SAME SHADE OF PINK as both Non and Phee's old shirts. I cannot figure out what this means but it has to be intentional, its such a specific shade of pink and only these three characters wear it!
Honestly, what Jin did is inexcusable, but teens give into peer pressure a lot alas, he never published it, cause…
I swear it's implied that Phee knows it was Jin who posted the video - when Phee goes to confront Non at the tutoring school he originally follows Jin up to the classroom and seems like he's going to confront him, and then Phee changes direction when he hears Non and Keng arguing
Maybe, Phee will start defending Jin and saying' oh, he's not bad Tan' and Tan gets furious because Phee has fallen…

This is very intense, never boring, kind of. However, nobody is that good as a person I wanted to root for them.…
Oh I feel that it absolutely the point of the series that there is no good moral character, that's what makes it so exciting to watch! Every ep another potential good character is corrupted, it's very real and truthful about human selfishness and relationships
Interesting choice by the writers/directors to not show much how the discussions about money etc went with Non…
I feel like this aligns with the concept of the series that there is no moral good character, but also is indicative of how pressured and groomed Non was at that point, have to consider how isolated he had been from everyone else and from his POV, the teacher giving him attention would have come above all else - plus he probably knew that was expected of him to get the money at that point, which is just sad for him really :(
At this point, I think it's better to have Jin and Phee to end up together bcz if in case Non is still alive then…
I agree, and also, did Phee ever explicitly tell Tan about his fight with Non before Non disappeared? I feel like Tan is under the impression that Phee and Non's relationship was going strong before Non's dissappearance (Tan asks Phee if he cheated on Non at one point once they were at the school) - I guess there was no real closure for Phee and Non though, so people might still want them together, but the most sense is Phee and Jin the present day, their relationship is so much more mature and exciting
Is this a "very-horror kind of horror", or is it more dark/suspence like Shadow? I'm very intrigued from the plot…
It starts off as though it's a kind of campy ghost story, but it completes transforms into much more dark and suspenseful themes by about the 4th or 5th episode - definitely worth watching! I'm terrified of horror movies and got through the beginning where the minor gore was alright, but you absolutely HAVE to wait for the backstory plot to kick in around Ep. 5, it's so so worth it for the drama and twists
