disappointed

I'm not going to lie, during the weeks I've seen many theories about Thua's involvement in the Curse thing - but i hoped they weren't true because i knew they'd have ruined ThuaKhan - they definitely did him so dirty. Honestly you can't: act bad, accuse your friends, expose someone else's relationship and just get along with it!! Khan was literally like: "oh you did so many bad things, I'm so angry with you... come here lets tell everybody we're together love", wtf!!!! It's annoying waiting an entire week for an episode and get... this. I mean, I still like this series (despite every plot hole I really got attached to AkkAyen) but why did they have to create such exaggerated dynamics :(Now I can't stand ThuaKhan because it turned into a non-sense relationship (0 credibility). Anyway I hope next week's episode won't disappoint me (it's the last one guys im crying) even though I never really enjoy finales, they make me sad!So, to sum this ep up: I will just pretend i've never seen Thua's parts.

What Happened this Episode?

I vacillate between being really angry over this episode and being so incredibly sad over this episode. Honestly, the writing had a lot of issues for the Eclipse but FirstKhao were carrying so much weight that I could forgive it. Even NeoLouis carried a little bit of the burden. The acting cast for this show are honestly really really good...... But even they can't fully carry the travesty that was this episode?The Pros:Akk and Aye are beautiful in every way and their scenes are honestly perfection and the thing I've gone back to watch this episode for over and over again. First and Khaotung are beautiful actors and have chances all series to show off their chops; this episode is definitely a First episode though. Akk's emotional break down through out the episode is honestly breathtaking and heartbreaking to watch; First conveys the emotions behind Akk's guilt ridden mind so wonderfully. I feel like he breaths life into a character that is honestly really nuanced. There are lots of little moments in the show that are so warm and enjoyable to watch. Which makes sense considering the director has said that they wanted to focus on moments.The Cons:Plot twists for the sake of plot twists are annoying. You had Namo on the table right there. He would have worked and could have been the end of it. Instead, they dragged Thua into this and murdered his character. Thua not only outs Akk and Aye out of the closet(shitty) but also allows Akk to take the full blame for the curse... despite *also* having been involved with perpetuating the curse. Like... the writing surrounding Thua is honestly so bad and kind of inexcusable. Thua is such an awful person in this episode and he gets *no consequences* for being an awful person. They just randomly go back to being friends like Thua didn't just force friends out of the closet. Like Thua didn't just toss Akk under the bus for the curse. Like Thua didn't talk a huge game about telling the truth and just wanting the truth to be out but then *never actually comes forward himself about all his wrong doing!* He also tells Kan to turn him in but there is 0 chance that will actually happen; everything we've seen of Kan up to this point shows that he's just as whipped, if not worse, for Thua as Aye is for Akk. The entire plot for Thua being the actual one behind the curse is so illogical and ridiculous and there isn't an appropriate level of consequences being exerted to Thua for him honestly being kind of a psychopath! How did we go from part 3 where everyone is mad at Thua to part 4 where we have everyone suddenly fine and okay and they're asking Thua to do the script writing? We are missing so many scenes here. Like an entire episode worth of scenes are just *not here.* Honestly, Neo got gipped; he should have had an opportunity to act out all of that pain and hurt and betrayal that his character should *definitely be feeling* since you know... *his boyfriend spent the majority of the show lying to him about EVERYTHING.* The Curse, who he was, what his motivations were... LITERALLY EVERYTHING WAS A LIE and Kan is still like... fine with this????This episode was grossly the worst, weakest of the scene and left such a terrible taste in my mouth. I'm still excited for the last episode but I'll probably just skip all of Thua and Kan's scenes unless they randomly realize,"Oh yeah, characters being shit human beings generally comes with consequences" and they nail Thua with the punishment he honestly deserves.

Didn't feel the hype. Unpopular opinion.

Well this is awkward...This started off as a solid 4 star read for me (Payu/Rain), and it all went downhill from there since Sky/Pai story started. Not to say that this was not a fun watch - because it was. I was just expecting more.*ahem* You're confused. Well here i explain it.I was expecting a chemical and passionate story about two people falling for each other like Payu/Rain but what what i watch is superficial and cheesy words and gestures.It was supposed to be a "slow burn" romance but It felt... repetitive, dull, dry and rigid. That's how I'd define for this second couple story.Didn't feel the hype. I really think a lot of people, like me will enjoy this... I also think a lot of people will love this story for what it is - just like I have. Unfortunately, I speak for myself when I say this story just did not do it for me.

Funny af

Tidak salah dugaan saya kalau drama ini membius saya lebih dalam lagi. Seliapan humor dan back story tentang latar belakang kehidupan pribadi Yai mulai dijelaskan disini. Minusnya, durasi per episode kurang panjang untuk total serial 8 episode. Meski unsur humor mendominasi episode 2 kali ini namun interaksi antara Yai dan Mangkorn hanya dapat porsi sedikit. Malah boleh dibilang sebagian besar adegan lebih difokuskan ke 2 bodyguard Yai. Mangkorn terlihat tampan dan lebih sexy dibanding pada saat di episode awal. Yai seperti biasa he's like sucked my soul with his naive, cute and good looks. No sexy scene di episode ke 2 namun awal pembuka saya cukup dikejutkan dengan fantasi? Imaginasi? atau kilasan memori pada malam Yai dan Mangkorn berhubungan sex pertama kali karena diperlihatkan Yai menggunakan alat bantu BDSM (ball gag) ? jadi ini yang menjadi pertanyaan besar buat saya yang barangkali bisa dijawab di episode 3 karena di trailer diperlihatkan Yai bermain dengan seorang dominatrix mistress. Ini cukup menarik mengingat di episode awal kita diperlihatkan rangkaian alat sex BDSM. sepertinya Yai memiliki ketergantungan seorang dominan untuk memuaskan kehidupan sex nya.
