I was so excited for episode 2 and kept checking the time throughout the afternoon ^^ Although the episodes are so short, I am glad that they move quite fast, so that we still get a decent amount of story every week. And some sweet moments between Okumi and Ai-chan ^^ Seriously, these two are so lovely together - they make me smile so much. Okumi who is so mischievous and still feels warm and trustworthy. And Ai who is so adorable and sweet with his pouty face. I am hoping for lots of silly and fun adventures in the upcoming episodes <3

Just properly started watching this show today (first three episodes so far) but am already a bit in love with it. Sure, it's not a show that I could ever recommend to most people, but there is something so very particular and fun about it... it's kind of a thing of its own. The jokes, the bickering, the intimacy, the teasing - I am very happy that Tutor and Yim decided to act together in such a niche but beautiful production.

Find the usage of the word "need" a bit much here. Like of course we don't need a sequel, but I am sure that many fans of the original series (I amongst them) were longing for more adventures and episodes set in that universe. When the show had ended I was thinking to myself how nice it would be if we got a few new episodes each year just to check back in and have a sweet time. And then we got the fun lil vertical drama. And now this special that consists of 4 episodes. Just view it as a present to the hardcore fans of the original series. And everyone else can just ignore it and view one of the 15 other BLs that are currently airing.

Lolol, I dont even care anymore if someone sees them kissing, this must have been like the 6th time now so far. And if it's Chat - even less need to worry. xD (Pond, I adore you in this role - please give us more moments of screaming and stupidity :D)

Reading the comments is kind of amusing. I understand wanting to point out when something feels fucked up/morally wrong, but guys, you are clearly watching a drama that features a dark love story that shouldn't be imitated in real life. Morally grey to morally dark acting characters - to me it feels kinda obvious that this is definitely not supposed to be a portrayal of a healthy relationship. I mean, come on, we are talking about a psychotherapist character whose methods incorporate punishing his patient with a hard strike on the butt. xD

Oh wow, what a blast from the past. No wonder I couldn't remember which drama it was from, 9 years have passed since then. :o Thanks so much to you and your amazing memory. *woohoo*

Alright, I have to ask because this is driving me nuts. The song by the Thai band Pause that gets played in the car twice during the first episode, I swear that it was a very popular song for another Thai BL before. I just can't remember which one @___@ Can any of you tell me?

Love of Silom and Flower Boy will start airing next week and both of them sound intriguing. Maybe try those out :)

it felt kind of deserved though

This was such a great and fulfilling experience. When the movie began, I couldn't stop crying because I had anticipated this moment for seemingly so long. The first beats of the score took me back to all the times I had listened to all of it on Spotify already. ^^
It's truly a great movie, such an intense journey of a determined individual, and at the same time also an emotional story of a difficult friendship/family bond. I was really glad that despite the splendor of the Kabuki performances, the actual life story felt realistic and quite raw in some places. Sometimes people make decisions we don't like, and that's ok. But also, yes, the performances had their own role to play and I loved watching them and follow them throughout the course of the movie.

thank you for your comment, really helped me out there :)

Sophee, you won't be missed. Som, I hope I will never have to hear your voice again.

IQIYI, 51:53. And the phrase "messing with" has like 5 different meanings, I don't know why you would jump immediately to a character having an incestual relationship with their father when so many other definitions are possible/make probably more sense.
You can see the father character in the intro to the drama.

"...but don't you dare disrespect your father." Cracks me up that your first thought is incest when hearing that line. My first thought was actually Gangster or Mafia because of the way the father points his gun and smirks at the same time.

Middle of Episode 7 and I just need to vent a little about Mike's character Oh: he is telling his mother that she is only thinking of her reputation and that he is behaving the way he does because of her. I am sorry but doesn't she have a right to maintain what she has worked for throughout her life? Is it in any way fair to expect her to accept all his shit and thus risk to lose what she has worked for? To go to court? She already did some shady stuff to "help him out with Muenfah" and she clearly told him to stay out of it. Very easy to follow, right? And what does he do? Walks right into the club to cause a massive scene/violence. Let's also mention that he drugged Teerak and his friends in the first episode and wanted to force him into a relationship. And that he tried to blackmail another woman (basically risking the livelihood of her family) into breaking up Fah and Rak. And all the other times he seems to have "messed with" Teerak. Also walking around university and flaunting his name and "power" as if they are anything that he has worked for. It's what his mother has worked for. But yeah, just tell her that you are this way because of a mother who doesn't ask about your self-caused injuries when you are putting her work and her achievements at risk. Sorry, I just had to leave my thoughts somewhere. :D

After reading the novel I think I can say that most of the upcoming episodes (regarding Phoon and Fah) will feel much lighter than what we started this season with. There will probably be one more painful episode and the rest will feel more like healing and love and sweetness ^^)

I just entered the name of Phoon' and Fah's novel into Google (South: Beside the Sky) and it was literally the very first result.

From what we see in the trailer and the first episode: it definitely looks like BL

If you had watched the end of the last episode you would at least have a guess for why he reacts that way

Tbh, being expressionless (the way he is required to act) makes it even more fun when something happens that causes Charan to lose his stoic demeanour for a moment. Like when he can't help but to smile or is shocked. And as we have seen with other drama, we will see him open up over he run of the 14 episodes - and then he will show his emotions more clearly. Don't know how else people would expect a royal guard to behave during the first episodes of a drama.
