NLE

So just to confirm: there are 7 stories with 4 episodes each, which makes a total of 28 episodes. The first story, MuTeLuv: “Hi” by My Luck, is a BL, and the remaining 6 are not BL, correct?

I missed them so much from OnlyBoo!

oh wait, i think OP is correct, I just check on GagaOOLala

I get where you’re coming from, and yes, you’re lucky you can switch around more easily. But it’s not just about bullying during an internship. If this were a full-time worker instead of an intern, changing jobs, even in Nordic countries, is not as simple as changing clothes. When you talk about complaining to a teacher or person in charge, that sounds more like school work experience than an actual internship. That is not how internships work in many countries, which means you are in a very fortunate position.

I’m from Australia, and here it is already difficult just to secure an internship. When you do, it usually lasts only a few months, and your performance often determines whether you will be offered a real job. You cannot simply ask a teacher or mentor to swap placements, you have to go out and secure the internship yourself.

And this is coming from a country with one of the highest minimum wages and strongest workplace protections in the world. If it is still challenging here, imagine how much harder it is in places like Taiwan.

I also understand Junxi’s silence because I lived it myself. I studied hard for five years, landed an internship at a major bank, and was bullied by my supervisor. I stayed silence because I desperately wanted the job. I had worked too hard to throw it away, and I was young and naive at the time. So no, it is not as simple as just speaking up or just switching.

I used Google translate your comment
“It hurts my heart to see what JunXi is going through with his internship”

I totally understand where you’re coming from, but sadly this is the reality of the working world. There will always be workplace bullying, harassment from bosses, long hours, and unfair treatment. It’s tough, but it happens all the time, and you have to be strong to get through it.

On the positive side, JunXi is lucky compared to many others. He has his best friend supporting him, his boyfriend Tuo always by his side, and whenever he feels down, he can just hold Tuo close like he did in this episode. On top of that, he has loving parents waiting for him at home. Yes, he’s being bullied during his internship, but with all that love and support surrounding him, he’s in a much better place than many people who face similar struggles alone.

From Parents’ Blessing to Moving In Together: Episode 7 Delivered Everything 10/10
It made me laugh seeing Wen Sen give Tuo advice about not being too clingy to JunXi, especially knowing this is the same actor who once played a character in HIStory 4 trying to force himself on his stepbrother. Completely unrelated, but the irony made me smile.

Episode 7, however, was pure magic. The way JunXi’s parents embraced Tuo as though he were already part of the family truly touched me. It was so heartwarming to watch them treat him like their own son, giving their blessing to the love between JunXi and Tuo. Both kisses were beautiful in their own way, but the moment JunXi took the lead and initiated the kiss himself was something special. It showed how much he has grown, how much trust and love he has for Tuo.

HanTuo continues to be the most caring partner. The fact that he worried about JunXi missing his parents after moving out shows how deeply he thinks about JunXi’s happiness, not just his own. And now that they have moved in together, it feels like the start of a whole new chapter. My heart is so full for them. Hopefully, children will be in their future too, because they already feel like a family.

From the beginning, I had a feeling this series would be exactly my type, and I was right. I love fastpaced stories that don’t drag, and this one has delivered beautifully in every episode.

And to those saying Tuo might cheat, absolutely not. There is no way he would ever hurt JunXi. He is completely devoted, completely in love, and utterly obsessed with his precious JunXi. Their bond is unshakable, and this episode only proved it even more.

It took me a couple of epiodes to get it. I finished this masterpiece 4 months ago. 10/10

That kiss in episode 5… it didn’t just feel romantic, it felt like the kind of moment you carry with you long after the screen goes dark.

Why it hits so hard 💔
The slow burn made every second ache, like time itself was holding its breath.
The music wasn’t just background, it felt like it was written for their hearts alone.
The tears weren’t just theirs, they became ours too.
The lighting wrapped it all in this fragile glow, as if the world wanted to protect them.

What it says about them
Jimmy and Sea aren’t just acting, they’re showing us what it means when love is tender, patient, and raw. They’ve become the purest green flag pairing I’ve seen this year, the kind of duo that reminds you how rare true connection really is.

Opposite to Secret Lover (Taiwan BL) where they cleared the misunderstanding in 30 seconds, here we’re stuck in a dragged-out mess.
I don’t mind a slow burn, but let’s be real: if I’d been raped, I’d want answers immediately. I wouldn’t disappear for days, randomly show up, and then throw in a kiss like some tragic Romeo and Juliet performance. That’s ridiculous. I’d demand to know exactly what happened to me.
And the most frustrating part? Knight has been trying again and again to explain, but Mild refuses to listen. It’s infuriating. Stop dragging this out for drama’s sake. We better get our damn answers next week, not in the finale, because if they stretch this nonsense any longer, it’s just disrespectful to the entire storyline.

Same. Waited for 55 minutes with no explanation at all and now we have to wait another week. The director clearly loves to test our patience.

I’ve lived in Australia all my life, and you rarely see cases of male rape in the news. I know it happens, but so often it goes unreported.

Reading about the UK was heartbreaking, Reynhard Sinaga, an Indonesian serial rapist, was convicted of 159 sex offences, including 136 rapes of young men in Manchester. He even filmed the assaults. It’s absolutely sickening. My heart goes out to all those men in England who had to endure this trauma. They deserve justice, healing, and our prayers.

Answering your question, yes, when it comes to male on male rape, it’s normal in Western culture to go to the hospital and get tested. But in many Asian cultures, it can be extremely embarrassing to do so, especially when the assault involves another man. Some countries even ban same sex marriage, and in the worst cases, you could end up in jail if caught. This might be one of the reasons why they didn’t go. In Thailand, the authorities probably wouldn’t care either, as the system is not as strict or protective as in Western countries.

I haven’t read the novel, but my guess is that Mild had a nightmare in which he was assaulted. Knight then came in and held him to calm him down. I’ve watched hundreds of BLs, and it’s very common for one lead to have a nightmare and the other to comfort them with a cuddle, it happens all the time. That’s just my theory, but I could be wrong.

I have the same questions and this is what I wrote last week.

Episode 5 left me furious and heartbroken, and I have three things I can’t ignore.

First if my younger brother was raped in my own house, I don’t care if it was my best friend or a complete stranger, I would call the police immediately. Drunk or not, friend or not, nothing excuses that. You don’t fight him yourself, you let the law deal with it. This isn’t some superhero movie where you take revenge with your fists, this is real life, and it’s your own brother who has just been through something traumatic.

Second I cannot forgive that girl for exposing the truth like that. Peer pressure is no excuse. You don’t stand in front of everyone and rip someone’s soul apart. You pull Mild aside, you tell him in private, you give him dignity. Imagine the humiliation of learning you were raped while your friends watch in shock. That’s not just painful, that’s soul-crushing. The shame, the humiliation, the unbearable silence that would follow you forever.

Third the pieces don’t add up. Mild wasn’t drunk, he was asleep, and the flashback doesn’t sit right with me. If Knight really did it, he would have been fully aware. And Knight himself kept repeating, “let me explain, let me explain.” That can’t just be brushed aside. I’m not excusing him, but something feels off. Maybe it wasn’t him, maybe there’s more. All I know is the truth isn’t as simple as it looks, and we need to brace ourselves for what comes next.

I remember watching this old Hong Kong drama years ago where something similar happened. The stepdad drugged and raped his stepson and then hid under the bed. Later, the boy’s drunk friend accidentally fell onto the bed, and everyone assumed he was the one who did it. He even got sentenced to jail. It wasn’t until much later, after a DNA test, that the truth came out and they discovered it was actually the stepdad all along. That’s why I feel like we shouldn’t judge too quickly here, let’s wait for the next episodes, because the story might not be as straightforward as it seems.

is that their offical YT channel National Drama League?

I feel so sorry for Mild after everything he went through last episode. Yes I’m glad you need your own me time and space to think. But this episode he’s the childiest ever. In order to move on, you have to face what happened to you, not just run away. If you don’t feel like talking, at least text your family and friends so they know you’re safe. You can’t ghost everyone for days. In real life they’d already be filing a missing person report.

During this episode Knight countless times said he wants to explain to you, but Mild never listened. Just a couple of minutes of your time doesn’t even hurt.

And then the whole “returning the kiss” thing? Please. By that thinking, what’s next? Having sex again just to give it back? Makes no sense at all.

Waited for 55 minutes with no explanation at all and now we have to wait another week. The director clearly loves to test our patience.

Those three boys are bullies and pricks but they do not deserve to be eaten. They did not commit some major crime like killing someone or raping someone. No one in this world is perfect and everyone has made mistakes, including you. That does not mean they deserve to be eaten.

And honestly, you must really hate The Next Prince because almost every one of your comments is about how bad it is. You even said before that you wanted the company to go bankrupt. Yet here you are still watching Khemjira, produced by the same company. That is contradictory. One minute you want them to fail and the next you are still consuming their content.

Just think before you talk. Imagine if the company actually went bankrupt like you wished. Hundreds of people such as actors, staff, directors, crew members, makeup artists, camera operators and even interns would all lose their jobs. These are real people with families to feed, not just nameless faces on a screen. Do you really think they all deserve to suffer because one drama was not to your taste?

Not all companies make perfect shows. Even top studios like GMMTV, Netflix or HBO have hits and flops. For every Game of Thrones there is a Velma. For every Not Me there is a Water Boyy. That is how the industry works. You cannot expect perfection every single time. Just because you personally did not like one series does not mean the entire company deserves to go bankrupt.

We get it, The Next Prince is a flop for you, but do you really need to keep bringing it up again and again? Enough already. Try being positive for once and move on.

I’ve seen so many negative reviews just because this series is 60 episodes of only 2 minutes each, and honestly, that’s unfair. The actors, directors, staff, and crew put in countless hours to bring this project to life. It’s not easy to film and produce something of this scale, and their effort deserves respect, not dismissal.

Yes, I get it, 60 vertical, scrolling episodes at 1 to 2 minutes each can feel annoying. But can’t we focus on what actually matters? The acting, the plot, the cinematography. Why not enjoy the story for what it is instead of nitpicking every little thing? Being negative about the format only takes away from the effort, talent, and heart that went into making this series.

For me, what matters most is the quality of the show itself. And here, all three deliver. The plot is engaging, the acting is strong, the cinematography is stunning, and the story flows so well that the 60 episodes flew by. I genuinely enjoyed every second of it.

What frustrates me even more is seeing people rating it 1/10 without even starting the series. Are we really going to rate every short format series a 1/10 just because of the structure? That’s not criticism, that’s dismissal. Many great shows have been unfairly judged because of unusual formats, like Love Mechanics which began as a short project before becoming a full series, or Seven Project with its one episode arcs. Once people gave them a proper chance, they saw the value behind the structure.

And to everyone leaving negative comments, let me ask: do you even realize how much effort the actors poured their heart and soul into? Is it fair to blame them for the production team’s format choice? They don’t decide the length of each episode. Imagine working endless hours, giving everything you’ve got, only to be slapped with lazy, negative comments from people who can’t look past the runtime. It’s ridiculous and honestly disrespectful to the entire cast and crew who made this possible.

All I’m saying is: give this series a chance before judging. Watch it with an open mind, you won’t regret it.

With a spoiler tag, can you please tell me the difference from the novel and the series, next week is the finale so i dont mind spoiler, thank you

Thank you :)

Thank you :)
