They're offering pre-sale, but only shipping in the Philippines.

I think the actors are doing a good job given the framework for this story. That said, if it gets any sweeter I'm going to get a case of diabetes. And I wish I could get a pair of the plushies.

I'll just say you have have a right to your opinion and I beg to differ. I thought his crying was actually spot on when he was sitting next to the pool.

This isn't Frank and Drake's first rodeo. They've been a couple before. I think that's why their chemistry works well.

I would say Bright's saving grace, as it were, is that he's been in the business for quite a few years and must have some awareness of the toxicity outside Thailand. Also, he's apparently both even keeled and sweet by nature. I don't think they can ruffle his feathers that easily.

I was amazed when I found out how toxic the Chinese fan culture is. I think it's an outlet for not being able to take out their hates on the government, which would get them locked up. The gov't tolerates it because they don't want a student/fan uprising. The gov't sees it as a valve on the pressure cooker of their lives.

It's a ready for the stage fan meet and greet. They could even do the Type/Man shower scene on stage, since they're wearing shorts.

Fluke was excellent. He fully embodied a person who knows nothing of intimacy and finds it frightening for reasons he doesn't understand. Watch the scene where the car backfires again.

Watch the Nung Narong reaction videos. They've been subbed.

Meh. As in, Still 2gether: Meh.

Apparently no one has watched him in Meteor Garden. I recommend it. His acting is generally very understated. Even in the more dramatic moments in Sleuth he keeps the character grounded. His smart/naive trade off is very well done.

I watched the first episode Eng Sub on YT, but then it got taken down.

Over the last year and a half, particularly in relation to LBC I've learned that the Thai BL industry can be incredibly nasty. Unforgivably so at times. They treat actors worse than horses at a race track. A lot of these kids are university students so they're intelligent, but maybe a bit naïve.

If you're still looking I can suggest Until We Meet Again, TharnType, Love By Chance, and 2gether.

And you might want to look up Boy Sombop on YouTube as well as the Joox video that has the whole OST performed live.

Grab a hanky! The end of Ep 11, Yellow Curry Soup. GO!

Just curious: Did you figure out that until the very end Fluke is playing two characters simultaneously and that the In character is "taking over"?

The story so far has all been about Cai's confusion. He's never been hit on by a guy and is trying to figure out how he feels about that. And then he gets pressured in ways he's not expecting. I haven't seen Elijah's other work, but here he's doing a good job of portraying that confusion.
These people are Catholic which puts an extra onus on being gay. If you have feelings for someone of the same gender, saying so out loud has a fairly high level of gravity.
He may well have concerns about how his family will react when and if he needs to reveal that he has a boy friend.

Never easy
