Surprisingly solid start

Well-paced and smartly written, ep. 1 introduces the cast and sets the stage for the series - doing what any first episode of a new show should do and doing it the right way. The camera stays the longest with Mick and Luke, which might indicate that they will be the "main main" couple - unfortunately their performances aren't the strongest (Mick, in particular, seems more wooden than his character requires) and I didn't sense any chemistry between them (so far). The other main couple had a less rocky start, with Chokun (so far) being much more interesting than in "My Love Mix-Up!" and Aston devouring him with his eyes; the chemistry is there and it's good. What I enjoyed most, however, happened elsewhere, with Aun's and Ciize's small performances creating Shane's household (giving it what BL often lack: a lived-in feel) and with both supporting couples hitting the ground running. Papang unpacked his comedic skills, Pod radiated pure warm charm while Ken and in particular Paul (visibly enjoying himself) portrayed the not-so goofy sidekicks, commenting story developments like a Greek chorus.

this was a tough ep to sit through, i don't get Mut moseying around with Meena, when he knows that pathetic excuse for a grandfather is stalking that child. especially after he had already accosted them on a prior occasion. why chance it?!? & this time that f*cker didn't just send thugs to hurt Mut, they wanted to kidnap Meena!!! this fact became irrelevant the sec Mut got hurt. **********************************************************************************************************************************& was right that this family doesn't communicate - each is funding that disgusting man just so he will say away from the others in that family & he is playing them all. ***********************************************************************************************now if they communicated maybe the mother would stop funding the disgusting man, she married & that would prevent her kids & grandchild from living in terror of him. they for sure would not be rewarding his threatening behavior by giving him buckets loads of cash. **************************************************************************************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************& even though i am Very thankful that Rak's father got punched more then once, his comeuppance isn't all that, as the mother is gonna keep funding him. only the well that was his son & maybe his daughter have dried up - still doesn't mean he gonna be destitute. but something better then nothing, at least he not getting away with murder like the mother in The Boy Next World.

everyone is trying to deal with that "father"…

everyone is trying to deal with that "father" alone, Mut should've told Rak about the meeting with the father! & even before that Rak & his sister should've had a meeting with their mother & they should've tried to solve the problem that is Jak - together! the only thing they do is send him money in the hopes he goes away. but a money hungry f*cker like him will never have enough(!) he will bleed them dry & still come back for more. so it aint shocking that he is using their want to safeguard each other, against them. ************************************************************************************************************btw Mut is a moron for standing around with that child, hearing out the "grandfather" let alone taking her to a coffee shop & giving him more of a chance to poison her mind & hurt her soul. he should've legged it at the school parking lot, his job was to keep her safe & away from her grandfather. he failed at both - if anything he added to her guilt by letting her listen to that snake. she shouldn't have to deal with all this mess. the adults needed to come together to solve this sh*t ASAP. ****************& cause they r not - he is running wild. even endangering people, all for money. even if Prin hadn't incentivized him he would have been there trying to harass his "family" as they r the only source for his income. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************i feel bad & sad for Rak, but this problem isn't going to ever go away - what is he gonna do? until Jak die's he will come back again & again for more. that is what people like him do. i get Rak is terrified but he needs to find a solution to this problem. heck Vivi doesn't seem like a pushover & is a good friend, maybe she can give him some advise that will put an end to this nightmare Rak & his family r living through hell, cause his mother fell for the wrong man.

idk how Rak just sat there & took it, Prin eviscerated him with her words. there is NO come back from that - ur only option is to go mental & bash her head in. well, that or just take it - the picture she painted, so much info, damage & trauma Rak lived through & she used every hurtful memory/experience to slash at his soul. u can't just brush that sh*t off & move on. ****************************************************************************************************************************************************& i am curios as to why he is still this terrified of his father, he has had enough time to grow & isn't the child he used to be, still he this terrified of a phone call?!? what he gonna do when they come face to face?!????

so Mut's big plan is making Rak fall in-love with him, so he they will marry, like it went with his bff Khom & how he ended up with Conner??! well i guess that is also a plan - still toxic & not healthy. but at least this way Rak wont have to worry he gonna get used & then tossed aside, once his money runs out. which i am getting wont happen anytime soon, as he (his mother) is loaded. still doesn't mean Mut can't turn into his father & history won't repeat itself - worrisome if u ask me. that's why found it ironic that Khom was worried about Mut, cause Rak doesn't believe in love. like plz ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also what is the "grandfather's" deal - why he stalking his grandchild?!? he didn't give 2 sh*t's about his children & from what i got his wife gave him money to stay away. even if he has run out of it all, isn't contacting her a better option to get more?! am sure she would give him what he wants, just to keep him away from her life - let alone her children's, no?!? **************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: i didn't like the whole inner thoughts of a 10 yr old child. that not cute of funny & i don't give 2 sh*ts that girls age faster or all that crap... she is STILL a child! i don't need her appreciating a grown mans looks! what the f*ck were the writer & director thinking even adding those sh*t lines?!? it was needed why?!?? that cute? to whom?!??

what u need to be a genius to get that Rak needed space?!? but nah Mut needed to make it about himself & when Rak logically lashed out, he got to play the aggrieved party. as if Rak not got enough on his plate, he now got to feel guilty that he was rude to an innocent bystander - who really isn't that innocent. cause anyone watching that scene unfold, would know that Rak needed to be alone to deal with his emotion's. but now he the bad-guy for hurting a concerned Mut's feelings - miss me with this sh*t. this gaslighting & manipulation 101 - ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also the shopping for clothes scene, sorry but if ur selling urself to a rich person & they have an image to maintain, they can't have their partner be looking like a slob. u dress for the job. same here, Mut is getting paid for his services & he should look the part. he's getting a free wardrobe upgrade, why make a big deal about it? oh, yeah to pluck at Rak's heartstring's - selling the love angel? yeah i get it - sadly Rak is falling hook line and sinker. *******************************************************************Prin might be a sh*t-talker, but she hit the nail on the head & that is why it hurt Rak so much. pity he brushed off her warning & didn't think better of the arrangement he has with Mut, cause logically this doesn't end well for him.

So beautiful, intense and at the same time pure torture from the beginning till the end.

I even do not know what to say... So beautiful, intense and at the same time pure torture. From the beginning till the end. Not easy to watch, not easy to feel...I can not even say if I liked it because for me it was so heavy ... but at the same time I have to say it was so beautiful and absolutely unforgettable... 🌸I can not give full ten because of the heaviness but I think it is master piece. I do not know story behind the story but I would say that is not just fantasy and creators definitely know what they are talking about from own expirience.Also, that is historically my FIRST review on MDL because after watching hundreds of series I just can not go without saying a word this time...

Recap and temporary employees new mission

The first several minutes start with cartoonist and succinct recap of preceding I Am Nobody drama. This you may or may not want to speed along. This story begins with an unprecedented amount of super powers causing upheaval with outsiders. BaoBao and ChuLan are still working together on a job when they are confined and told to not exit. A case of a colleague killing her mentor has all upper management debating what to do about temporary workers period. The mentor was killed in a very specific manner that points exclusively to ChenDuo, making her the wanted person to be tracked down by all temporary personnel. Management figure this will be a way to prove loyalty or no amongst the outlier personnel under temporary label. They are given her location and all workers make it clear they don’t want to use teamwork to find her and share credit. ChuLan is the worst about hiding but also ends up being the group chauffeur. We are introduced to new characters and BaoBao once again proves to be the kickbutt character of the group. They are all introduced to Chen Duo but it seems her memory is scrambled and her recollection of her meeting with mentor has him yelling at her. There is also one standing hidden in the background with nothing to determine if he was an observer or participant in the conflict.

ifind it ironic that Rak is following in his mother's footsteps & everyone (in the comment section) is cheering him on. Mut keeps accepting payment (if i aint wrong, he has accepted too date around 140 thousand baht, that Not chump change) & then talks about love... sorry what?!? i genuinely feel bad for Rak, he is broken cause of his father & childhood, this is the only way he knows love. this sad & toxic. no matter how much money he's got, the fact u gotta pay someone to be with u, how u know they will be around when u truly need them? what happens when u aint got no more money to fund ur toy-boy? what happens when someone wealthier comes around?!? this whole romance is a recipe for disaster, where Rak is the one whos gonna be left bloody a broken. Mut - even if he gets tossed to the curb, will have all the money he has earned, to keep him warm. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************the whole scene with Khaimuk was beyond moronic, is she stupid?!? or oblivious to the fact she is too late to worry about who Mut is & if he is trust worthy. if she wanted to act like Rak's nanny & bodyguard she should've followed him to the island & made sure no money hungry, opportunist would take advantage of him from the start. now it is too late! ************************& sorry but i can't stomach Khaimuk's cutesy way of talking, she is getting on my nerves so much so i just skipped all scenes with her - the fact she made Mut sign a contact is too little too late IMO but we will see... *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************i find reading the comments hilarious - like is everyone serious, the fact Mut acting the aggrieved party if freakin hypocritical. dude has put a price of everything since the 1st sec he met Rak. now he's acting like a wounded puppy cause Rak is jaded (cause of his childhood) & wont play along with the love game. but he still keeps accepting payment & Rak the bad-guy?!? i get u need to shut-off ur brain to enjoy this, but people bordering on brain dead - sorry not sorry. ********************************************& another thing, the one that is in-love & will fall harder is Rak - the fact he is protesting verbally means sh*t - he is so desperate for love he has bought someone, someone that keeps mentioning how expensive his services r (from the start), someone that NEVER rejects a payment. *******************************************************************************************Mut is just a great snake oil sales man & as someone who had to look after themselves since 15, i get him being this calculating. but i don't trust him cause of this & neither should Rak!
