can someone explain the timeline does this happen before part 1??
FahPhoon's story jumps around, yes. So far it is before the semester starts, so prior to the events of season 1. If they follow the book, the next episode should have a time jump to after the events of season 1, because Ter, North, and Dao assist Phoon is his quest to win over Fah, and as of yet in season 2, Phoon has not met them.
Never thought I'd be saying this but PheemJira's chemistry is making me waver so badly. Unless Pheem becomes one…
It's so interesting to see people say that, because I don't feel it at all. I see it from Pheem's side, yes. But Jira always gives me the vibe that it's forced attraction. He wants to want Pheem, but it's just not there for him. I think, rationally, Pheem would be a better choice compared to the red flags of Koh, but I also don't think we've learned everything about Koh and his background yet. I agree, though, I need Pheem to do something that forces me to dislike him so I can be happier with KohJira in the end. Since we *know* that's going to be the end because it's OffGun lol.
Can someone who have read the novel tell me why is tonfah said to be wolf in sheep's clothing by fans? He seems…
It's mentioned a couple times in the book, and I never really thought it was an appropriate moniker. Yes, he ends up being very insatiable once he gets Phoon in bed, but that was never the time he was described as a wolf in sheep's clothing in the novel. It was related to him being willing to enlist Tiger and Johan and their seedy and mafia related contacts to bring about Phoon's father's downfall. It was more about him being willing to do anything to protect Phoon. But I still don't think it's a correct term 🫤
don 't think so 👀 his hand hide his lips , Pond kissed him
I honestly think it's reactionary to Pond's lips. Pond has very full lips, and always goes for Phuwin's whole mouth. Like, completely envelops top and bottom lips at once. I think they both need some assistance about how to kiss more believably lol.
Do I disregard the events of season 1 or did this (episode 1) happen before season 1 started?
FahPhoon's story jumps around in time a bit, so this is before Phoon met Ter, and before HillTer's story begins after they meet again at school. Then it will jump to after HillTer and JohanNorth's stories. If they follow the novel, that is, because Ter, North, and Dao help Phoon with his relationship. Then ThitDao's story will happen after that. GerNao's story is like a side story novel that kind of happens throughout all of the other four. Their time line confused me the most reading the novels.
I am already rewatching the episode lol. I thought Thee's bracelet said Top when I first watched, but now I see it is T❤️P. Who was "P" when he was a child?! Please tell me we will find out 😭
Tonliew is crushing this role so far. It's literally like Phoon in my brain from the novel jumped onto the screen. Just phenomenal. This story is so well done so far! They're genuinely pulling all the heartstrings, and I am so so so mad I have to wait another week for the next episode. This arc is gonna stomp my heart on the floor so hard 😭
It's only the first episode and I'm way too emotional and stressed out! I don't think I'm emotionally stable enough…
FahPhoon's story is very emotional. Strap in lol. I am not a crier - hate it with a passion, really - but their story made me cry. It's still my favorite story of all the 5 couples, though 💜
Ohmigosh I just knew Rome was going to interrupt 😂
But seriously? Phuwin's eyes in this series are telling every story and showcasing every emotion. It's so well done on his part. When he was asking Plub if she was mad at him for falling for a man, his eyes were basically the begging eyes of Puss in Boots from Shrek. Can we have more well written scripts like this one so these actors can show off their talents like this more often, please?
The angst and tension this movie was filled with! Dang. It was extremely well done, though, I am slightly disappointed at how open the ending was. It makes sense, yes, but it felt so abrupt. I was locked in, focused, intrigued, ready. Then, bam! Credits. I quite literally froze and said out loud, "What?!" It was a bit jarring. I'm not usually a fan of open endings, I like finality in my stories lol. This wasn't just the door is ajar, open. This was the door has been entirely removed, open. Stopping and reflecting, it makes me feel like Sugiki was hell bent on winning to prove he could, and refused any sort of distraction that might get in the way. Though, he definitely did not articulate that at all. It's almost like he said to Suzuki, "Once I win, we'll get together." when he said he'd see him at 10Dance, but we're supposed to muddle into that conclusion ourselves. Communication was a bit amiss between them, which is really the only let down I felt in the film. However, the way they spoke and understood each other through the movements and dance was beautiful. Very visceral. Thoroughly enjoyed this movie.
OK. It wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't great. I see a lot of comments talking about the NC scenes and how often they happen, but for me, the frequency made sense based on the story line. However. The way the NC scenes were shot felt like they were trying to extend time as filler rather than actually necessary. Which, in turn, made most of the NC scenes feel gratuitous. This could have been better at 10 episodes. It could have shown more reflective flashbacks when Sorn realized just how much he liked Jun. The GL story line could have been cut out entirely, because what the crap even was that? Everything with Phut and Vee could have been eliminated. The two little kids delivering coffee could have been eliminated, because that just felt like a producer wanted their kids in the show. The potential was there, and it felt like it missed the mark, mostly because of the excessiveness of the NC scenes. So, yeah. Not bad, but not great.
OK, so another random question. In the scene where Thee and Peach are outside at the homestay sitting at the table with the chess board, there is this weird metallic sound in the background. I heard it the first time I watched the episode but let it go, now rewatching, it's a sound that my brain loathes lol. And I knew I had heard it before! In Fourever You when Johan and North are outside at the café before North passes out, it's in the background there, too, only louder and more grating. Does anyone know what it is?!
Random question... Why is Pond wearing lighter contacts in this series? It's a silly thing, but I am continually distracted by it and questioning the purpose of it.
I just finished this, and on the one hand, loved it. On the other, demand justice for Gao Tu. Hua Yong and Shao You's relationship is aptly called psychotic by Wen Lang lol. But it oddly works. And dang if Huang Xing isn't just the prettiest human. This is definitely one I will revisit because I know there are some things I missed the first go around lol.
I am hard fangirling this show lol. The dream sequence musical had me cackling, then Peach and Plub's back story pulled all the heartstrings, Thee coming in clutch to save Peach was perfectly shot, acted, and executed, then R being who we all *knew* had me in full glee giggles. Roller coaster of emotions in a single episode.
I also find it incredibly endearing that Peach calms himself down and explains patiently so Thee can understand. Thee can't imagine a world where money can't solve the issue, but Peach brings him such a humble humility. It's just a lovely balance.
OK, seriously? Every middle finger of every person, alive, dead, or otherwise, directed straight into Saint's dad's eyes. He's an absolute douche magoo of a human, and I wish him nothing but daily paper cuts under his fingernails with constant citrus splash surprises.
