It's a Chinese production but they cast Korean actors, Best Lover is another example,
Generally it's a way to draw in other audiences. Capitalize on their popularity from other markets and countries. Sometimes it's also a funding/sponsor grab. You fund me, I cast your actor.
I haven’t started this yet and was worried about the subs but I’m glad to know they aren’t as bad as MGTV…
Yea, it mainly feels like theyre being done by someone still learning. So i was more thinking “they probably meant this” or “ooh, messed up your tenses i see” rather than “That makes no sense at all. Hopefully i have enough context clues without whatever that dialogue was supposed to be.”
Eh. The acting is pretty awkward. And the subtitles aren’t the best (not MGTV-level bad though, it just feels like the word choice and flow could be better).
But I’m pretty sure we’ve all watched (and potentially enjoyed) dramas that were worse in those regards.
What gets me is how inconsistent the characters are written. And not just compared to their characters in Tonhon Chonlatee, but even isolated to this first episode.
Like Ai. What was the point of the whole beginning set of scenes if he’s just gonna be a hopeless romantic/lovestruck pouty puppy? Where’s the promiscuous player? The anger issues? Choose one! Or at least do a gradual transition between them.
But that’s to be expected, i guess. The trailer also felt pretty inconsistent in tone. Especially when compared to this first episode.
Where is it airing?I couldn't find it anywhere, neither the name of it
Officially it's on IQIYI. For regions without IQIYI, i'd imagine it would be on Youtube (as most of the projects from that studio are), but I'm not sure.
There's an hour delay before streaming for that countdown. That countdown is when it airs on GMM25 channel. An hour later, it goes up on streaming platforms for re-runs.
But Saint has hinted about it should be ready around November if everything goes according to schedule.

No wonder he’s worried about them finding out.
