Arghl, I love this lil show so much, it feels like a precious gem to me. :) The story is sweet and a bit naughty, the atmosphere is light and fun, and Ai-chan and Okumi make for such a lovely couple. In episode 3 I cried a bit and I smiled a lot. And now I want more, but have to wait until next week. @____@
I am only at the beginning of episode 8 but just wanted to write down my theory. Chae Ha's colleague has felt fishy to me for a while. The way he is so friendly but sometimes will act a bit suspicious or ask questions about the state of the investigations. Could it be that he is the "hidden son" aka the "awl killer"? It would make kind of sense considering his age and how he is involved with the investigations on a more surface level. I hope that I am not totally wrong @____@
Ooooooooh, interesting set up ... Did Aunt Jumpa abuse the crap out of Gaew because where did all this bad blood…
I mean I would also be hella angry if I thought that someone tried to kill me by sinking my boat and then actually ended up killing one of the servants.
I took me until now to realize that Leng is the same actor who played Q in Kidnap The Series. My mind is blown xD I am also very happy that we got to see our silly tea house owner from Love Upon A Time once again. ^^ All in all I had such a fun time with this first episode. Everything looks beautiful and really enjoyed the story so far. But I am kinda glad that we were able to get rid of the old Gaew. No matter his trauma - the way he was treating and kicking around his personal servant made me feel so angry. Hopefully he will have a better time under his changed master ^^
I know that Phatsa's shirt will eventually end up getting washed and cleaned. But just the thought of how he must feel when he considers wearing it the next time xD
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.
Do we really need this show? Me and Thee is fun for what it is, but career-wise, Pond and Phuwin should try a…
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?
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.
"...but don't you dare disrespect your father." Cracks me up that your first thought is incest when hearing…
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.
I watched the first episode out of boredom after reading some comments... People were saying it's like softcore…
"...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
