scroll up. it's right above this comment section.

that and the sweet/bitter comments. in khemjira it was the bitter tea, but it's sweet to pharan cuz he tasted it off khem's lips. here supposedly sasin thought the lotus seed is bitter, but when he ate it off saenkaew's palm, it was sweet 😊

right? i was thinking the exact same thing watching the reaction video. im trying to recall back to what i watched vs what isn't there during the reaction and thinking to myself, what exactly are people who's watching the cut version watching? lol. Like half the important character development stuff seems to be missing from the cut version.

i've already rewatched this whole series (6eps) 3 times since i started this, rewatched each episode at least 2 times, scouted promo content and interviews etc to learn more about actors/actresses. its so good im in a chokehold ✊😩✊

thank you!

Does anyone know if the scenes here were acted specifically for the mv or is it like a pilot for the show? Saenkaew crying at 2:14 is just so heartbreaking omg had me tearing up. if the actual show does something similar i might just die on the spot

I dont think he's gonna die. despite the heavy angst and drama, the story actually has a pretty positive outlook on life and love. plus a lot of the promotional content the actors did don't seem to indicate there's gonna be a sad ending.

Imo each lead are doing something to cause emotional distress to the other, so Pin isn't necessarily the only who should get heat. She's wanting to marry a man whom she knows is not into her, sure that is troubling. But Sasin is literally going after his younger sister's crush. In a normal circumstance, stealing your siblings crush is a big no-no, no? Saenkaew gets the most leeway, since the marriage is against his will and he doesn't like her that way, but he's also falling for his fiancé's older brother. This triangle of a relationship all have their own faults and reasons. Like you said, it is very complex. Just because Pin is the odd one out doesn't really mean she's the villain. I wish people would go easier on her. Or at least share the heat with all the characters. None of them are innocent, you know. If anything, I think Sasin should take the most heat. He loves and values Pin so much and yet he still ends up stealing her crush. I've only seen him show remorse once since he started falling for Saenkaew, which, I think is too little for someone who talks big about protecting Pin.

I don't think she will go full evil mode either, it's just not in line with her character values. Maybe she will be very disappointed and shun them, but I don't think she will do anything to cause them actual harm. And although the relationship is complicated, they're still family and friend, so I believe they will probably sort it out.

Of course it is obvious to us viewers, we have all the information, but do the characters 100% have certainty in their feelings? Neither have verbally confirmed their feelings. They are simply acting on mood right now, therefore, there is uncertainty.

I dont watch a lot of BL and I havent been in the BL side of shows for a while. This would be my 3rd major BL I'm watching this year and so far it is my favorite 🥰

but they haven't even confirmed their feelings, how can they kiss already? 🤨 it's taking forever because the plot is plotting. too quick to make-out when there is uncertainty will ruin the pacing.

okay i do feel bad for Pin but having seen how she acts in these recent episodes, it's clear she is also aware she is alone in this relationship. she knows Saenkaew does not love her but she is ignoring it for her own happiness. the betrayal of her own trusted brother stealing her crush, and her crush choosing her brother, will be very heartbreaking for her. but everyone, even herself, is choosing their own happiness. she wants the marriage despite knowing he does not love her. Saenkaew wants to break off the marriage for his own happiness, as a gay man. and Sasin is already growing fond of Saenkaew, cutting in between what his beloved sister wants, for his own happiness.

when saenkaew got hit by his dad and sasin is just laying there, unable to do anything. i can feel both their pain.

i rewatched the trailer just to double check what to look forward to. angst. the drama is drama-ing.

im seated for the next episodes.

That might be because that's part of his character personality to contrast Saenkaew. Saen is calm and collected, reserved and makes decisions based on logic. Sasin on the other hand is chaotic and free spirited. I do agree he did a bit much these past episodes but we don't know if he will get character growth/development, so I will hold back on judgement and see where the story takes us.

as someone who's watched a lot of thai non-bl drama, especially the 2000s, this bl is very reminiscent of those dramas i used to watch. aside from it being a bl genre, the way it unfolds, the drama/angst, and all the annoying evil characters, it's very typical of a thai drama. im saying this because i feel like lot of bl tend to focus solely on it being a bl, and the plot tends to take the backseat (or the plot focal itself IS about bl and not much else). but i think this is a good balance. you can see the relationship develop but the plot itself is also still moving forward.
Edit: I just saw an interview where the director said the story is meant to be an angst story about romance, not necessarily focused that it is a BL. Basically, it's a romance that happens to be BL, rather than a BL that is romance. No wonder it's so good. When you focus on writing a good romance story, whether it is lgbt or not, it will still be good 😮

The way they misunderstand, argue, then apologize and makeup, all smiley and yearning again 😩👌

Same, i wanna see their reactions. Ive been seeing fan clips and their reactions were genuinely so funny, had me smiling from ear to ear. But i wonder if we will get official reaction videos.

Thanks! 🙏 i'll also rewatch again to see if i catch anything 😌 if it's true then the more you know, I guess lol.

interesting. I understand thai too and sure the nuance could be contextual but i didn't see where the context could lead to that understanding? even the words they said didn't have any implications of top vs bottom (losing the front or back). can you link where this person said this? i'd like to know more about the contexts they're referring to. I'm definitely in the internal side of things but since i know thai too, i'd like this to be a learning experience on what the actual thai girlies are seeing that im not, since language isn't really a barrier, you know.

wow, who would have expected lol but that makes sense

i rewatched and they both spoke the exact same way. maybe that person misread the dialogues. i dont think it's bottom vs top thing.
