Nour Episode 3

Im hooked my lord

This shit is addicting my lord. Also bc you cant kill them what's the game plan for tee? I'm so lost. Also him drinking blood was an interesting scene, I liked it. Weird ass camera angles y'all. Yeah, we need to be crying right now because we just got rejected, I fear. Two things. Why are we sleeping butt-ass naked and in the bed with the door unlocked? Why do we just have a shirtless picture of our friend on deck? Like, what? Also, the friend on the motorcycle is going to die. I like how we think. Just shoot it. So does him saying another mean that he knows he's a nour? Wait uh. So there are bigger fish to fry? HE CAN'T KILL THEM IF HE GOT CLAPPED? I think the demon was a girl, so I have my money either on the girl that works with them or the friend of the university kids. We are kissing again… this junk is addicting and I'm gonna lose my mind waiting for this. 9/10 okay bye!

Where’s the love

Three episodes in, and I think I’ve figured out what’s bothering me: the show keeps telling me there’s romance, but I’m not feeling it.Having the female officer openly shipping James and Ken and gossiping about them with coworkers felt more like high school behavior than something happening inside a police unit. At least they finally break that ridiculous red tape dividing their tiny office. And apparently a very drunk James can now casually bear-hug Ken in front of everyone without anyone batting an eye.The editing remains choppy, with scenes jumping from one moment to another without enough connective tissue. The lantern lit bridge scene is a perfect example. James is supposedly very drunk, yet suddenly he can carry on a perfectly coherent conversation with Ken. Cue the romantic music, beautiful red lanterns…and somehow I felt absolutely nothing romantic.Maybe that’s my real struggle with this relationship. James comes across as overbearing and overly eager to get close to Ken, while Ken seems far more interested in blood and finding a way to finally die. James keeps pushing his mouth to Ken even in the seemingly empty police station until he gets his hug and his kiss. Where exactly is the chemistry between these two? I’m looking for it, but so far the romance feels strangely one-sided.Ironically, I’m getting more chemistry from Dr. Ji and Chita. Even their fever-reducing scene had more tenderness and sensuality than the carefully staged “romantic” bridge scene between our leads.Three episodes in, NOUR still has not context but the show has all the ingredients for romance: the lanterns, the music, the lingering looks but chemistry isn’t something you can create with an English-lyric OST. I was hoping for a more romantic Thai OST instead.
