OMG

Yes, yes and yes.

That's what I like to see. I loved this special episode.

Firstly, I'd like to say that both actors are just.... hot. And Chahub's fake tattoo suits him perfectly. (Yes, he confirmed on twitter that it's fake?)

I liked their chemistry, and the looks in each other eyes were just perfectly executed. They really transmitted me their feelings and emotions.

The story is definitely an interesting one, not the typical school concept one, as they are both playing as adults in this series.

I'm definitely gonna re-watch this one several timed until the actual series drops.

Check Out This Special Episode

Content Warnings: non con/dub con*

Overall: Looks like it sets up the series which will air in 2022 (which I will definitely Check Out lol)

What I Liked:
- the actors have good chemistry which makes sense as they were in Skinship together (fyi there's like no skinship in Skinship)
- the story of people meeting at a resort/hotel is not new, but I think it played fairly well, they had some cute moments

Room For Improvement:
- enough with the creepy stalker women, that hotel worker was so unprofessional and she should be reprimanded for being unprofessional/harassment 
- *I didn't like how Daonuea was definitely drunk but Nine looked like he wasn't when they had their bed scene, that gets into the non-con territory as people can't consent when they are very drunk. I wish they either both weren't drunk (preferred) or they both were very drunk.
- leaving your partner is such an a**hole move, people should be there in the morning even if it's awkward
- at least there was a reason Nine had to shower at Daonuea's room but what was the reason they had to shower together at the same time? Is there limited hot water or something? (I liked them showering together, just wish there had been a logical reason for it)
- am I the only one who doesn't like characters in romance genres smoking?

Wow, this was really lovely

Warnings : NO WARNINGS. Just plain loving and beautiful.

I was not excited about this given how Skinship is a long ad. There is definitely product placement in this too, but it's wonderfully integrated into the plot and non-intrusive.

Anyway, this is both hot and adorable, with wonderful chemistry between the characters - it's rare that you instantly feel two people are perfect for each other without reservation so quickly. I'm really excited for the full series. Both actors really inhabit their characters - especially Chahub, who does a wonderful job as the mischievous Nine - his not-very-subtle flirting was really funny and sexy, and I really felt his character.

The plot progression is natural and believable, and the way they drew together was romantic and beautiful.

One thing, though: that female employee was so obnoxious that I seriously almost stopped watching this. Note to producers: characters like that are not funny - they're intensely annoying and that behavior borders on sexual harassment, and she should be fired immediately. I would leave and demand my money back if someone treated me that way at a resort.

Better than the series

This special episode seemed to be the perfect setup for the series. The story got a good start and the actors showed great chemistry. You can believe that Nine and Daonuea, both trying to get away from something, were instantly attracted to one another. As the episode ends, you certainly want to know what happens to them in the future. Nine and Daonuea would seem to be a perfect couple.
Chahub and Best are excellent and deserve more opportunities together and separately. Unfortunately, the series that followed was not very good and the script was trash. Even the performances of these two guys could not save the muddled series storylines. I just hope the series did not hurt their chances for more together.
Watch the special episode and skip the rest.

why this show was a waste of time

SPOiLER
i decided to watch this because i was bored but i just ended up more bored i cant lie first episode was kinda okay but as soon as it got ep 2 daonuea started leading tee on while entertaining nine he made tee think he was in love not only that but at ep 3 he had s@x with nine while tee was at his house like what .after he finished with nine he started making it out like them having sex was all nine fault and saying how this cant happen again after soon later that same night tee asked daonuea to be his bf and homie was like yh but low key did just to spite nine after that nine and daonuea kissed like multiple times so he basically cheated on tee but extra drama tee has a whole gf who he treats very bad i mean she is annoying but i get her kinda daonuea
also complains so much that i skip his parts i really dont like the characters in this show and there always in the same place throughout the show i cant even carry on watching the plot is just so bad infact there literally is no plot when there speaking it sounds like have a over voice also the trailer was so good but the show is not to add on nine is a asshole daonuea is selfish and immature and a attention seeker basically the whole show is about cheating candy kinda saves the show

This review is about the 12 episodes. Not yet done with the 12 and I didn't watch the special yet

Im not done watching with the series as well as the special but I'mma put a review here...

I watched the series because I saw it on my fb acc and having the thought that I would like it, I started watching it, and I am still currently watching I want to finish it somehow but I am not sure. I wouldn't say that I don't like the whole story, there are just some that I don't like maybe really it depends on the perspective of a person. Honestly, I personally don't like stories that involves cheating and such depending on both sides, I might agree with it and I may not. I appreciate the casting and acting I really love Nine?? as well as the rival Tee and Candy, oh I also like the acting skill of Preaw and natural acting of Boat, I also like Dounea(forgot how it spells sorry), how he portrays the childish side of his character tho I don't like him in the series hahhaha what I meant is the actor's acting skill, that's what I like. However, I find the series a little bit boring tho it's funny sometimes because there's one character out there that just makes me laugh, anyways idunno why, I just don't like how the other character shows his love toward the other person and how the other one deny his feelings for the other one(i don't want to spoil so other other hahaha). Continuing, I mean maybe it would be fine if the issue is mild but no it's not and I can't take it and I need to put a review. Here's a bit of spoil DON'T CONTINUE IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED HEHE. I don't like how Dounea react towards Nine and their issue is not solved I feel like the story is focusing on something I don't like personally but I also think that some part of the series portrays something not good in a relationship, generally. That's it, I still feel like what I said is not enough but that's it. Anyways I appreciate the casting and maybe I would like how it will end. Gonna go back here if I liked the ending, I'm not yet done. Mwaa?

Lol, the receptionist just gave them the keys and they both know which direction to go.
Both the actors are hot but half of the time too much makeup is applied.
Both lead actor's played their character good.
Also, I noticed, The angle at which nine takes pictures doesn't match with the actual pictures.
The receptionist is just too extreme.
Many things just don't add up in the special episode, hope the series isn't like this.
The special episode feels to be less budgeted for some reason.

Perhaps the director was enlightened by the Holy Spirit, otherwise I can't explain it after the near-flop called Skinship, where both actors also appear. I think it was a collective shift of the entire crew, the production, a radical cut, and episode zero was released into the world, which in my opinion has all the best attributes, even if the story itself has already been used elsewhere. Suddenly there is incredible chemistry between the actors, everything fits together, great music (not mostly Thai, but world music is used, especially the ending complements the ending beautifully) and I can only look forward to the series itself (unless, of course, the creators screw it up...)


Režiséra snad osvítil Duch Svatý, jinak si to nedokážu vysvětlit po téměř propadáku jménem Skinship, kde oba herci rovněž vystupují. Myslím, že to byl ale kolektivní posun celého štábu, produkce, radikální řez a na svět se vyloupla nultá epizoda, která dle mě má samé skvělé přívlastky, i když příběh samotný už byl jinde použit. Najednou je mezi herci neskutečná chemie, vše do sebe zapadá, skvělá hudba (není vesměs použita thajská, ale světová, hlavně ten konec krásně doplňuje) a už se mohu jen těšit na samotný seriál (pokud to ovšem tvůrci nepokazí ...)

Un buen comienzo

He evitado ver esta serie durante muuucho tiempo debido a las criticas polémicas que tiene; sin embargo decidí darle la oportunidad y creo que me gusta la idea. Es un buen comienzo, este capítulo especial nos deja bajo cierto contexto para la historia que viene después y, a pesar de que la historia no es muy profunda, igual me gustó.

Los personajes por supuesto son atractivos y tienen buena química, eso me anima más a ver como se desarrolla su relación a lo largo de la serie. Nos dan un poco de sus contextos individuales, lo que ayuda a crear matices de personalidad y a entender por qué es que están en este lugar para empezar y por qué toman las decisiones que toman.
Por su parte, la producción la música y la escenografía son bastante meh, no llaman demasiado la atención, no destacan demasiado, diría que las escenas que mas llaman la atención son la de la fiesta por como juegan un poco con los fondos y las luces y la de cama, por que nos muestra un poco más de la química entre los protagonistas, pero eso es todo. No hay mucho que destacar aquí, también las actuaciones son bastante promedio, a veces dejan un poco que desear, pero quiero atribuirle eso a que es un episodio piloto, por lo que no voy a profundizar mucho en este aspecto, esperando a que la cosa mejore a lo largo de la serie.

No tengo mucho más que decir, ya que no pasa gran cosa en realidad, es un buen episodio introductorio, cumple bien con su función de presentarnos a la pareja principal y dejarnos con intriga de lo que va a pasar después.

Besos,
Camy ✨

Maravilhoso

Esse episódio especial foi maravilhoso. Fazia tempo que essa série era aguardada, e com certeza esse episódio deixou a todos com água na boca, ansiosos pela história completa.

Não posso opinar muito sobre a história, pq provavelmente ela será contada sobre outra perspectiva na série, mas em relação à atuação, fotografia, ost, tudo esteve maravilhoso. Além disso tudo, existe um fator primordial que é a química do casal, que realmente esteve impecável.

Já revi esse EP várias vezes, e se vc pensa em assistir Check-out, com certeza deve ver esse especial antes.
