I have never heard of engineering or architecture being "hypermasculine," but I think they use those so often because of costuming. Black pants, white shirt, black (maybe purple, depending on the school) tie? Easy peasy, likely inexpensive, and no effort.
The age of adulthood in Thailand is 20, so all incoming freshmen at university in Thailand are at least 20 years old. I don't really see anyone acting 14 or 15, personally, but the cutesy thing feels more like a cultural thing than an immature thing. Again, to me. Though, I agree that one being the overly cutesy and the other the stoic, almost mean, one kind of trope is vastly over done.
I still recommend the show - each couple gets a progressissively better story. I liked ArcArm, liked YothaGun even more, and would absolutely commit murder for FaifaWine.

So you're telling me no one thought to sit Heng down and give him an actual run through of events and let him make the decision? Ugh, communicate, people, communicate!

Boss finally realizing Heng's feelings and not forcing the relationship was like a giant sigh of relief. The entire show I've been annoyed at Boss 😑

Mo yet again giving up. Wimp. Dude, step up. Speak up. Communicate!

The song and dance scene was... Well, it was.

I didn't hate this, but I also didn't love it. No, I never saw the original - and given the vibe of this one, it's not something I'm going to seek out, either. Earth was excellent in this role, Mix was good, but the character writing felt flat a lot of the times for me, so I don't think he was given the opportunity to really shine in the same way as Earth. Overall, it was OK for me. But nothing more than that. Just OK.

So the shirts that Faifa had made - anyone else see the heart on the front as quite reminiscent of Wine's lip shape? That then also matches the cup Faifa bought for Wine? I wonder if we'll get any sort of explanation about how Faifa designed it. My brain is seeing the heart as Wine's top lip and Faifa's bottom lip and the lightning bolt on the back as how struck they are with each other and how finding each other was like a bolt of electricity to Faifa's life. But I'm probs reading way too much into it 😅

PondSand were at the table when Arm got the call, so I would say JetPun. But Po was the one on the couch whining he was going to propose, too, so I'm confused lol. Maybe Tay? Because Wine still has to get his bracelets. But then why would Arm get that call instead of Arc? Unless it was Pun letting her peer mentee know. 🤔

That rooftop needs to be immortalized deeming it Faifa and Wine's personal spot. This episode's rooftop scene surpasses them all - absolutely perfect. My eyes are watering from how much I've been smiling lol

Toey yet again spilling Wine's information without his knowledge or consent is pissing me off. Like, girl, shut your damn mouth.

I use kisskh only as a last resort lol. I get really tired of having to close all the ads that pop up every 5-7 minutes and the constant rerouting to random websites 😑 But I do pay for Iqiyi, so I'm good on that count lol

The trailer specifically says Iqiyi at the end, so I'm assuming it'll be Iqiyi only for the US like MGB. I don't know about elsewhere, though. GMM has been taking a lot off YouTube lately 😑

So I know My Golden Blood is only 2 episodes in, but is it wrong that I'm hoping this show will be more serious than MGB? Because I have been cackling like a loon after MGB episode 2, and it made me realize I hope Revamp isn't like that. I just want them to be different enough that they don't get compared to each other too much. I know it's inevitable they will be to some extent, but if Revamp takes a darker and more serious note than MGB it will set them apart enough. Hopefully 🤞

My mind went way deep into the gutter as I was watching this episode because of that exact thought 😅

Honestly, I'm not a huge vampire fan, but this show has me legit laughing like a loon so far. If you take it as more of a comedy, I think it's highly enjoyable. At least so far. I also do not care for Ossan's Love Thailand - I don't see redeeming qualities in any of those characters and the camp is way overdone. I think this show is better than what EarthMix was given, as much as I wanted it to be the other way around.

Tong: Let me go, I won't tell anyone, I swear!
Also Tong immediately upon seeing Tongkla: Kla! I swear this is the truth - I got kidnapped by a vampire! 🤣

It didn't even need to be a whole phone call! Just shoot the poor man a text! Ugh, I wanted to hug Faifa so badly 😩

I feel like the way Yotha was written is a bit contradictory. He genuinely cares for Faifa, yes, but at the same time seems to not know his brother very well. He knows Faifa is overly kind to everyone which causes issues sometimes and then Yotha comes in to protect him, but on the other hand, he seems oblivious to the underlying issue about *why* Faifa is overly kind to everyone. He jumps in to protect Faifa against people who misunderstood Faifa's kindness, but doesn't do much to protect him against their mother. Yes, there was the scene when their mother shows up at the dorms and he takes Faifa away, but I always got the impression that was more for Yotha's sake than Faifa's. And yeah, Faifa doesn't open up about it, but Yotha doesn't ask or dig deeper about it either. There's just an inconsistency with Yotha that grates on me a bit.
Also, to me, Newton can go suck an egg. He actively watched Yotha be upset about their mother, but Wa was the one to actually comfort him. He clinked glasses watching the drama fallout between Klao and Yotha like it was enjoyable soap opera and not his younger brother's personal pain. He showed almost zero concern/compassion/care about their mother leaving or apologizing or explaining. He's the weakest link of the brothers for sure.
I hope Wine lays both Faifa's brothers low, honestly.
(Sorry, that was a whole rant I didn't think I needed to vent, but evidently did lol.)

I know I'm probably in the minority about this, but I started this because of EarthMix, and they're the only reason I'm staying. I am legitimately constantly irritated by Heng and his manchild self, Boss and his inability to take a damn hint (or rather, multiple), and Mo's incredible lack of self esteem. I wanted to like this, I really did. But I don't see many redeeming qualities in any of them. I knew it would be campy, but it's so insanely over the top campy the meaningful moments get overshadowed. Though, I do think Earth has done a fantastic job as Heng acting wise.

I honestly think that's going to be what happens. Wine is going to blow up on Faifa's behalf and it's gonna be a gut punch to Yotha, but he needs it so badly. The entire family is incredibly selfish *except* Faifa. It's so true that kind people are kind because they know the hurt of unkindness - Faifa being a perfect example, which is heart crushing.

It's the scene when Faifa and Wine are on the rooftop before going to the bar with the others. Faifa tells Wine he waited, they didn't actually show him at the airport.

-"You can be weird all you want, as long as you're being yourself with me." OMG Wine is the greenest of green for Faifa! And Faifa deserves this beautiful green flag so much!
-"I've cared too much about other people. I want to protect my heart for a change." Fucking yes! Faifa, you beautiful boy, that is the right answer! Oh, the sigh of relief I felt when he said that 💓

"Why must I be the one to sacrifice?"
"Mom said love wouldn't hurt, so why am I still hurting now?"
Words cannot express how much I want to punt kick their mother and Newton (and also dad and Yotha, dammit) multiple times. It hits home for me, too, because I'm totally that person in my family. Like, I want to hug Faifa so tight to mend the broken pieces 😭

I can totally see where a lot of people wouldn't enjoy it. I actually liked the second half better than the first. I struggled to get through the first half - I honestly couldn't decide if I liked it or not. It's like it tried to be too many things but couldn't hold them all together or something. I can't pinpoint it, but there was something just... off... for me throughout a lot of it. Overall, I enjoyed it, but it's more just OK. Past the halfway point, it's does get better, though, it shouldn't have to be that way.
