Oh, I really don't mind whether it's true product placement or not. I just found it amusing to think of it as one, and to think therefore that, Thai BL had "made it", so to speak. That said, do they usually list all product placements in the end-credits of Thai BLs? I know they do it in the West and in Japan. Wasn't sure about Taiwan or Thailand. Pity, because I like the idea of Demna watching his product being advertised in the horniest show in recent memory. I think he'd approve!

On your point about Sorn being besotted with Jun, couldn't agree more! He's Sorny for Jun, and will soon become corny.

(Okay, I'll show myself out.)

Oh, it could be. But given how prominently it was framed in the shot, and the complete absence of the need to specify a brand, not to mention I have yet to see a Thai BL without product placement, I thought this must be one too. :)

Right? It is the same with blowjobs and handjobs as well. As I always tell my husband: they don't call it a job for nothing.

Oh my friend, if what you say is true... I have a lifetime of bad decisions behind me.

That said, they should have shown the preparation. People think tops do all the work: but that's just anti-bottom propaganda. Being a bottom is a full-time occupation.

Never feel guilty about pleasure, my friend.

I keep accidentally (mis)reading P'sorn as Porn... I wonder why. 🤔

Fair warning: he'll probably take it as a kink!

Right? That's exactly what I thought. It doesn't help that Boat looks like Boss's long lost twin...

T'as raison!

You're right. Jun is the only one who is open, curious, and honest about his feelings. Sorny is just horny, and your classical dom-top selfish seme -- soon to become a selfless softie. Let's see if Sorny turns corny for Jun.

Okay, I'll stop now.

You know Thai BL is going mainstream when the product placement is for Balenciaga...

Please don't tell me they're not serving pornography for brunch at the iQiyi building.

Jesus fucking Christ, the nipple play...

I love it that each episode feels like a sex-ed class written by a gay porn star...

Again, not a bad thing.

While I'm all for vers representation, I think most men would want to bottom for Boat. It's just inevitable.

So far, this show is giving me no reason to revise my theory as to how it was made, and only more reasons to confirm it:

P. S. That's a good thing.

Well said, and well expressed. I take no exception to a single line of your comment. If you had posted this as your original comment, I would have applauded it, as I do now.

I would only qualify it with two points: 1. I think people have as much right to hate a show as to love it. But hating a show is not the same as hating a person. What bothers me is the sleight-of-hand by which one becomes the other. 2. Many people here are not calling out tone, framing, or intent. They are attacking the person. That is not dialogue. Unlike your comment above, and that of Happy Cloud.

I do think there is a good deal of hypocrisy when it comes to how people respond to criticism. But I like it when I read comments like yours above.

Alright... about to sit down and see what this masterpiece has to offer this week.

Well said. I like it when people engage with or dispute ideas, rather than launch into ad hominem attacks. I particularly agree with your last paragraph. I like the production here, and was really amused by their attempt at Anglicisms, and it is rather enjoyable, which is something. At the same time, let's not pretend this is a magnificent work of art. Within the terms of its genre, and in satisfying the residents of New-Zee-Land, it's doing rather well.

Thank you!!!
