Lone voyage by adelyn paik ep 7 In the night by egaoya (ending)Im still inlove with you by jake $ing (beginning)Thanks…
I love that this drama introducing us to some lesser known musicians who created good music. And the songs fit the series so well! I love that this series is actually utilizing the use of music really well. Enhanced the depth of the story and evoked our emotions, make this production seems expensive, elegance and high quality. Many Thai BL can learn from this series instead of using back sound that make their shows look cheap. Of course there is budget that should be considered. But Top Form doesn't seem to be a highly budget production either. However, they use the resources they have to create such an amazing result.
Love the scene during Akin's stage play. The transition from Johnny to Jin was cool. Then, the way Jin broke down crying after Akin said 'forgive me' then hug him, then cut to their previous hugs... ugh, excellent! For tonight's episode, I want to applaud Smart for delivering such a masterclass in acting.
The long conversation when Jin and Akin cleared things up felt so intimate. I felt like i was watching a real couple in front of me. Made me almost feel like intruding their moment (felt the same way about the bathroom scene to the point that I was using my pillow to keep me from looking, but I ended up peeking like a pervert, lol). In that scene, Akin's guilt and relief crying stabbed my heart. If I had a boyfriend like Akin, who is a cry baby, sensitive and kind, I would make it my life purpose to protect him.
The only thing bothering me is how they handled the Johnny's matter. I honestly wish Akin would punch him. He can let it go after that, it's his choice. But at least, confront him for messing up with you. And yeah, I think the way Johnny's story is developed so far doesn't sit right for me.
This series looks very minimalistic. Sometimes, I feel like watching a stage play that only have two characters, or even a music video. It relies and revolves around Jin and Akin's relationship, and some dialogues can sometimes feel mundane. It's not a bad thing, but it can also be tricky to execute.
I think it's very brave for the director to hold that vision for the series. Yes, it has made the series visually stylistic. However if it's not done right, it can be a miss. Well, it's done right and everything about it has been beautiful. From writing to music. Props to P'Bos and the entire production team.
guys, i'm watching the 7th episode. some part (in the beginning) seems to be sped up. it's like the video moved faster. is that wetv problem or the editing? i'm curious whether someone else noticed that as well or just me.
I think the problem is, Akin doesn't perceive what happened to him as an assault. he thought he just simply slept with his co star in a state of drunk. yes, he doesn't remember a thing about that night. but, it can also because he doesn't think he'll get harassed, so the first thing came his mind is, "oh shit! what happened? do i sleep with him? have I cheated?".
the thought, "What happened? what did this kid do to me? did he do something to me?" might never crossed his mind at all. Hence, he looked so ashamed about the hotel thing that he must add they stayed in a separate room. Hence why, he couldn't defend himself to Jin.
I read some comments about Akin wanting to protect his career thus he can't say or do anything. I don't agree. Denying the possibility that he's been assaulted is probable for someone like Akin who is used to keep things to himself and put all responsibilities on to himself. Especially in a grey situation he cannot fully comprehend.
Even me, as a woman, though I understand i shouldn't blame myself, the first thing I would feel if I found myself in that kind of situation is shamed, and I'll have no room to assess it objectively. Though I have all reasons to doubt the situation and question Johnny, I would still put all the responsibility on my shoulder alone. I am a woman and Akin is a man. It's probably harder for him to acknowledge the assault or to even consider it.
For me, watching Top Form is sometimes painful because of Akin. His character triggers me in many ways. When he did the smoking pose despite feeling uncomfortable. The painful look in his eyes when Jin got the award, and yet acting strong. When he got out of the car after Jin accused him for betraying him.
Akin's wall is so thick. He's often misunderstood, and it's not easy either for people to understand him. I so want to hug him.
Anyway, sorry for the long rant. The last time I felt this kind of connection with a fictional character was when I watched Memories of Matsuko.
Jun is a real stalker. You made him fall for you, and then you blamed him for a mistake that was never Akin’s.…
Honestly, I feel Jin's frustration and pain. But, I don't like it when he starts to threat Akin. "Say it to my face then I will leave you", "If you do this then I will not do that again". I noticed that Jin can be controlling at times. Yes, Akin has to resolved his avoidance tendency, but Jin also needs to fix how he communicates with Akin when he's emotional.
Correct. What happened to Akin should crack open a conversation we’ve been too afraid to have. It’s gonna…
I feel Akin so much, because if it were happened to me I could imagine myself putting all the burden on me, being all confuse alone and even blaming myself for what happened. Just like Akin, I wouldn't be able to defend myself and prefer to act like nothing happened. Akin even still try to be compose in front of Johnny. I wish in the next episode we'll see Akin kicks his ass. Johnny really deserve a big punch! He's horrible.
oh god, Akin! I think he's too used to ignore his feelings, not facing himself even to the point of abandoning himself. Akin has a lot of issues, but as someone who often avoid her feelings and often feels overwhelmed by them, I personally can relate to his character a lot.
Anyway, there are people who find this series boring and think that the only good thing is the good looking guys. I won't try to convince them to like this series because I understand that the plot of this series is pretty basic. The story is not that complicated either. I can see why it can be boring for some people. But, I don't agree with the opinion 'all this series has is those handsome faces'. Top Form is much more than that. The story might be simple, but the characters are written like real human beings with their complexity. I think, this series has nuances that make it meaningful and thus allow people to connect with it on a deeper level.
About the non existent honey after their wild night, I would just consider the use of honey as a metaphor. they weren't really using the honey in reality but the honey is used to describe their sweet and intoxicated love making and relationship. does it make any sense? maybe not. but i'd like to believe that.
Anyway, Boom's performance gives justice to Akin's character who is a top and the best actor. He does seem like a real veteran. In Thai BL, actor with Boom's ability is rare to find and his acting is such a joy to watch. Meanwhile, Smart is convincing as this golden rookie with so much potential, a rising star that none doubt will get even bigger.
By the way, when Boom smile or laugh, he kinda remind me of PP Krit.
this point, if Thailand decides to do an adaptation of my favourite Chinese novel(svsss, heaven official's blessing)…
yes! isn't wetv a chinese company? those danmei adaptation shouldn't be too impossible, i guess? hope someone from wetv read this comment and start considering the idea. haha...
