I don’t think disliking the FL makes someone a hater. She’s clearly not written as a positive character, so…
For the most part, true. I don't really like her either. And I'm gonna enjoy every bit of it.
I think that's the difference though. The distinct between liking how unlikable she is vs just disliking her. Former opinion shows you're enjoying the overall show plus her unlikable character. Latter opinion shows her unlikable character is souring your mood about the overall show. The tone of the comments is usually noticable who's enjoying the show vs who's not because she's unlikable, and that's mainly most of the arguments I've seen, is why are you complaining about a bad character who's supposed to be bad?
oooh so after ML almost dies too, that's how they'll get to the soul exchange, maybe? anyway, i enjoyed the first 2 episodes so far. I love Sejeong, I started this for her. I've never seen shows with TaeOh but am quite impressed with his performance so far. I felt his sadness thoroughly.

That user askme is in this comment section too? Dont bother talking to that person. They're very ignorant, cant comprehend basic conversational exchanges, and will intentionally misinterpret things and then pull some nonsense out their butthole as counter argument. They seem to hate watch a lot of shows just to complain about the most basic things that can easily be solved by going to watch shows they DO enjoy (which at this point I dont think they enjoy anything and are just being insufferable on purpose). I already blocked them and cant see any of their comments but when you did the @ in your comment i thought i'd chime in. Just my outsider's two cents tho 👐
May I ask in the Manhwa why did she want to destroy Junseo and he also wanted to destroy her ?
I think even during these episodes you can see he disagrees with what she did to her Dad. This is the beginning of his criticism against her and her methods. It reaches a point where she plans to take a third life and that was his breaking point. He ends up exposing her to media using all her X, as you saw in the beginning there was some kind of interview. After she fell from grace, she blamed him for ruining her life, and he becomes her last big victim, thinking if she has to suffer, so will he.
You're suggesting she has to be a real sociopath to play such a good sociopath role? Why?
That's a huge generalization to diagnose someone as a Sociopath. Usually people go to a Doctor and multiple sessions to confirm. And the reason I ask is because I see a lot of naive people unable to differentiate between acting and reality, they think just because an actor is evil in a role, must mean they're evil in real life to accept the role, similarly an actor must be a sociopath to act so good as a sociopath, so was just wondering if you were one of those people. And seems you are. Oh well.

I think it's because people thought she was a good guy teaching the bad guys a lesson, turns out she's just a bad guy all along 😅 i dont think people grasp it yet since the show did start out in her favor.
Just two things I'm confused about... did Peem end up getting his powers back?? And I really liked how they talked…
Yes he got his powers back. Monk said it was temporary. But the other confusion you have. Honestly at this point im confused too. My personal real life understanding is shaman's CAN have family but maybe the reality of the story is different from actual reality and they have different rules. Because First Pheem's mom was like, "if you become shaman, then you cant have lover" so i was like, oh so he has to remain clean off that squirt squirt stuff. That's the rules of this reality. Okay cool, whatever. But Im sure they'll find a way around that because aint no way a Thai BL won't have at least one spicy scene. But then they just started making out and jerking meat sticks and there wasnt any actual change or ritual releasing powers or nadda. He still had his full power when those jerk sticks were squirting. So now im like ok? You can just do it? Maybe Pheem's mom was joking...to scare him into not becoming a shaman? That IS a hard gig to do for life. I get it.
But final boss Pheem was like "babes my powers gone, we can put the meat in and go all the way." So now which is it? I thought yall could do it with powers? Now it's power absence again? The rules are a little confusion 🤨 😭
****WARNING: Spoiler about the webtoon. Do not proceed reading unless you wanna be spoiled by the ending of the webtoon.
I went straight to the webtoon because im impatient.
And Dear lord.
She never changed, till the end. She was steadfast, focused on getting back at those who hurt her. She fell from grace but still had one last bite. Her last revenge on Junseo. Chef's kiss. It's simply too cruel. Did she win? Did she lose? Both? Sigh. Whatever it is, she got him good.
But honestly though, at least the daughter looked normal. Thank goodness.
The only issue now is....the daughter is the final innocent victim of Baek Ah Jin's twisted actions.
If they decide to closely follow the webtoon, can't wait to see this in live action 🙏
Is the FL an anti-hero or something? I've been reading comments about her being nasty and manipulative, but could…
There's only 4 episodes out and based on those 4 episodes, she's not an anti-hero. You could consider her just plain villain quality. It's not like she's out to hurt innocent people, but her goals to hurt those who hurt her involve innocent people. I personally wouldn't root for her. But I do think the show will be entertaining just to see how she deals with different situations.
Based on how she behaves and is portrayed, I'm assuming she is leaning more toward being a villain and we're gonna watch how she keeps up the charade until finally, she is taken down? She thinks the world is out to get her and she is in constant survival mode, using anyone she thinks is usable. Maybe a lot of people will deserve the brunt of her actions, but a lot of kind innocent people will be her victim too. I really don't see a good ending for her.
write some yourself, then ?? what an insane thing to say...
I do get that part too. But I think as with everyone who have their wants and needs, we have to remember just as you want to read more about PheemKhem, those people want to read KengNamping, and it is unfortunate the ratio is so off, but that is why if we want something, just as Knp shippers wanted Knp fics so they wrote it, people who want more PheemKhem should write it and add to the fancreation pile of goodies.
Can't move on from kengnamping. does keng does fanservice during series airing? Doesn't feel chem and ignoring…
They're official partners so they're stuck together for a while. I've seen their fanservice amp up a lot since the series ended, especially from Keng.
But imo, fanservice is just a gimmick. Too much of it and it's obvious when actors are over it. Having a good friendship where you're comfortable with each other is so much better. Actors shouldn't need to act like they're into their costars to sell a show. The show should be selling the show.
I'm nervous about a 2nd season. 2nd seasons for Thai shows traditionally don't go well. But I won't lie....I would…
I agree. Second seasons don't usually go well because they're adding to a complete story and have nothing else to tell. It's usually just unneccessary drama and fluff content to meet the episode count. Khemjira is already a well rounded and complete story.
I think that's the difference though. The distinct between liking how unlikable she is vs just disliking her. Former opinion shows you're enjoying the overall show plus her unlikable character. Latter opinion shows her unlikable character is souring your mood about the overall show.
