With all the terrible things piling up in this episode again, with Zeke's accident as the cherry on top, I must say I was touched by Hiro's acting. It felt like he carried the complete episode on his shoulder.
So it's over now, and I can't say I'll miss it. I like Kych who has proven in projects like the May-December-January movie that he is a first class actor, but he alone can't carry a series with a lousy script, annoying or stupid side characters like Charlie's dad or his best friend, and a partner who looks gorgeous and may be a nice guy, but who just can't act.
The MDL rating algorithm is a mystery. The overall rating of BL series is usually by 1 point lower than the average of the age groups. Here it's the other way round. The rating among those "currently watching" is 7.48, among those who "dropped it" 2,83, and among "verified users" 7.34. In all the age groups the rating is slightly over 7 - so how does all this add up to 8.6, which would mean it's one of the highest rated BL series ever?
I was happy when Beam was announced as a lead actor, because I like his acting, and I'm sad that his talent was wasted in mediocre series. After watching episode 1, I congratulate him that he isn't a part of this lifeless, faceless series. I'll watch episode 2 to see if it gets any better, and because Best/Willi is there whose scenes were the only parts of the show that were at least watchable.
Just like Oxin Films are ruining the most promising Filipino BL couple HiroJericho, Mandee are doing the same to one of the most promising Thai BL couples, YimTutor. What a shame.
Fluke's character is bullied by his schoolmates when they find out he's gay. I've only watched episodes 1 and 2, but it looks like Fluke and Singto may be a couple.
This has been a lovely series of commercials, with a beautiful cinematography, food that looks delicious, and some of the best Bl actors around. The final episode was actually my favourite - the story of the wind and the windmill that takes many hours in "Dangerous Romance", told in 10 minutes. Plus: Dew is so adorable.
Is this meant to be comedy or drama? After episode 8 it looks like the writer couldn't decide. I'm tired of watching drunk guys lying on top of each other blabbing nonsense, and I'm also tired of toxic bosses treating their secretaries as their boy toys. My advice to Shun Yu: go back to your parents' breakfast shop and find a nice guy from the neighbourhood.
