Also, you say that Teh is "lying to Toh 'supposedly' to protect him". This is only because of Toh's underlying initial lie which was, first to pretend he didn't overhear the phone conversation between Jimmy and Teh, and second, to continue seeing Jimmy without telling Teh. Teh is under the rather naïve (and stupid if you ask me, since he knows Jimmy better than anyone and knows that his word is worthless) impression that Jimmy is keeping his end of the bargain and no longer associating with his brother. In his mind it would do little good to tell Toh about Jimmy scheme, therefore. It would only end up hurting him for no reason. Now Teh is painfully keeping his end of the bargain whilst both Jimmy and Toh are both lying to him and continuing to hook up. I wish I could understand why you fail to see how messed up that all is.

What a peculiar statement... actually Jimmy did more than "ask", he demanded and threatened Teh into sacrificing for his brother. You might not understand this, but in normal human interactions, there are those in our lives whom we love enough to protect and even sacrifice for without needing anyone to ask us. I have no idea what anyone else's interpersonal relationships are like, but generally in most situations, one will naturally sacrifice for the ones they love. Parents sacrifice for their children, siblings sacrifice for one another, best friends will sacrifice for one another. Sometimes even a stranger on the street will sacrifice for someone he doesn't even know. And nobody has to ask. It's just called being a human being and possessed of compassion for others. I don't pretend that Teh has been perfect throughout this little journey. But that has nothing at all to do with whether or not it is okay for Toh to keep lying to him. Apples and oranges.

I'm reading the comments here from people who are intent on defending Toh and his stupidity. If it were only stupidity, maybe I could forgive it too. Stupid people need love too I suppose. But it's also his selfishness and his lies that are infuriating to me. He knows that his brother gave up Fah in order to protect him. The least he could do is tell his brother up front that he wants to continue with Jimmy and so Teh should continue with Fah. He has to know his brother is suffering and he just doesn't care. All he wants is Jimmy even if his brother has to suffer. That I cannot forgive. I can't understand his motivation for allowing his brother to suffer like that. It doesn't make sense.

I originally thought this series was going to be depressing and annoying and I almost stopped watching it. I'm glad I watched episode 3 though because it was so adorable! 🥰 And, as someone has already written...Arthit is annoying as HELL! It looks like next week's episode is going to get interesting, so I can't wait! ☺️

I remember back in the 80's there was a high school basketball team in Westchester County, New York who were being booed by the students of the school where they were playing after beating their team rather badly. So the victorious "away" team gave them parting moonies through the open windows of the bus. The school district was flabbergasted, saying that was "unsportsmanlike behaviour" and suspended the entire team. I don't remember for how long though. 😂

I'm just starting to watch this again for the second time, and saw in the opening credits the Italian saying 'Un diavolo scaccia l'altro', which in Italian means 'One devil drives out the other.' (It's very quick...if you don't speak or recognise Italian, you will miss it...) The entire premise of this series! What a great line! I can't wait to see Ok Taec Yeon again! ☺️

When the father told him from now on he must live an honest and upright life, and that if he contributed to restoring stability to the Empire, Zhang Mo's death would not be in vain, I think that stuck with XWJ. I believe he sincerely wants to help XHA because he thinks it will somehow redeem him for his past actions. Before, he only cared about survival. But now I think he is truly committed to the cause. That's just my opinion.

They switched in the Palace. When you see the eunuchs filling his wagon with memorials you don't see the face of the man in the wagon. That's because it is already Gu Yu. Commander Wang had to kill the guard following him because he had no intention of going to Bai Wan's house but rather to meet with XWJ and the Tiemo envoy.

I agree with everything you wrote here. I wasn't very fond of Chancellor Gao when XHA asked him not to abandon the people who helped him and his response was a Sphinx-like 'maybe I will, maybe I won't'. But now I understand him better. He's basically the sort of person who believes that if it benefits the Xiao family to betray you, he will not hesitate. It's all about his loyalty to the throne. For which he gave his life. Kudos!

I only hope he doesn't have to also meet the wife and kids. I will not survive that! 😭

I have just watched the scene where the 'deposed emperor ' confronts the father of the young man he both replaced and killed, and I have to say, that scene was PHENOMENAL! I couldn't stop crying for ten minutes. What an intense but heartfelt scene. I wasn't sure of the de's true intentions until watching that scene. I now feel a bit more secure in feeling that he is now finally genuinely on the side of XHA. What a well acted and well written scene! 🥹

I know the entire concept of this series is the fact that Peach is supposed to teach Khun Thee how to act like a normal human being, but it still fascinates me the way he is willing to patiently explain to him each time he goes overboard or acts in a way Peach deems excessive or unnatural. Most BL dramas are stacked with miscommunication, misunderstandings and silence between the two protagonists which totally infuriates me! I love the openness and the totally honest communication between these two. Especially the fact that Thee is open to and willing to learn from everything Peach tells him. It's as though he knows he is lacking in the very communication skills Peach is teaching him, and he is willing (and eager) to learn. I find that element of the story extremely endearing.

I honestly believe that the crazier he acts, the more Peach comes to understand that he just doesn't know any better, and I believe it endears him more to Khun Thee. Phuwin does remarkably well in this series with showing subtle acknowledgement of where Thee is coming from and also when he feels Thee has crossed a line. It's so great because he can understand him, but he also will not tolerate any disrespect or excessive treatment. Yet you know he doesn't hate Khun Thee or even look down on him. He simply explains to Khun Thee what he did wrong and moves on. I don't think anyone has ever done that for Khun Thee before. It's this dynamic that I love between the two characters. One is fiercely independent and determined not to allow anyone to cross his boundaries, whilst the other is madly in love and has no concept of boundaries. 🤣 It's so adorable! 🥰

I love the concept of Khun Thee being trapped inside this weird lakorn world because his parents won't allow him to have a real life outside of the family business. So he clings to the idea of dealing with people, especially romantically, in a melodramatic and completely excessive way. Whenever he offers to buy Peach a house, a plane or an island, he's doing it so sincerely because he truly believes that's how it's done. It makes me laugh but it also makes me sad for him because it shows how obviously little outside human contact he's had. He must be so lonely. No wonder he clings to Peach so tightly. Peach is the first person to speak to him like a real person and not like a boss or someone to be feared. I truly love both the concept and the execution of this series. It's quite special and, as you say, deserves to be remembered.

I was never a fan of Pond or Phuwin's acting skills prior to this, but after watching Me and Thee, I am a committed fan! Especially of Pond. The way he speaks the melodramatic obviously lakorn inspired lines he speaks with such earnest sincerity, thinking this is how people truly speak is hilarious! And I live for every time Peach has to tell him to get a grip! 🤣 This is the first time ever that these two have been able to get me not only interested, but completely obsessed with whatever they are going to do (or say) next. 😂❤️🥰

I just watched a reel from a livestream where Phuwin states that other than Peach and Thee ('because he's...Thee' 🤣), his favourite character is Mok because Est is a 'scene stealer...in a good way'! I loved that because it is so true!

It is offered for free on Viki with far better subtitles.

I love encountering BL fans in regular drama series and movies. I get why those two characters would have such an impact on you. My Love Mix Up was an incredible drama series. ☺️

His impossible hairdo (wig?) in both series makes it impossible to truly gauge who he is as a person, so one can only focus on the eyes and the smile. And both of his shine so brilliantly in both performances that it was impossible to miss. And she is just beautiful in every way. She can never be mistaken for anyone else. ❤️☺️

I KNEW they looked familiar! 😂 I loved them both in My Love Mix-up...they were adorable in that series and were incredible in this film. Both of them are such great actors.
