I’m willing to give this a chance. I generally do not like BLs where there is a female ex girlfriend that just can’t face reality. However, I am getting good vibes from the two male leads and the rest of the cast is entertaining. I just hate clingy females and the use of a female as the interloper. That said the chemistry between the two mls is so good I can’t wait until episode three.
This is a winner for me. Sometimes I just want to watch a simply delightful story about finding love. For me this is one of those. It will definitely go on my watch list. I loved the inclusion of the heterosexual couple and the way it ended with the part timer was the icing on the cake.
Oh wow I didn’t see this coming. Episode 4 was very personal to me. My husband and I adopted two children. After 15 years of marriage I became pregnant. Our oldest son was 9. Our daughter was 2. Our miracle baby was a boy. From the very beginning we included our two older children in every step of the journey. Thank Goodness we didn’t have an aunt like Tae. The three are adults now with children of their own. Once someone asked our youngest son if he was treated differently. He just laughed and asked why would he be? My daughter returned to live with us a few years ago. After her father died she stayed with me. I don’t know what I would do without her. I love all three so much. This series has exceeded my expectations. I like BLs like this and give us real life experiences even if it shows painful experiences.
Perhaps I’m in the minority but I just keep going back to this series. I kid you not. I currently have a list of 40 BLs, half of which have already come out this year and Moonlight Chicken is my personal favorite. I thought the entire cast was awesome. Yes, it was all over the place and some interactions may have caused people to scratch their heads in wonder. But maybe that’s why I love it…because that’s how real life is( at least mine) It doesn’t always make sense but somehow the pieces of the puzzle all begin to fall in place…like the priest said…there are two sides to every coin…the happy and the sad.

I hate to think of anyone being subjected to such cruelty. When I taught school there was this student who felt he could tell another male student. That student turned on him and each day he was ridiculed. Even some of the teachers offered no comfort. When he told me he was transferring schools I wished him well and I told him to be careful and to wait awhile before he shared certain things. He seemed relieved .

I do understand. Even though I live in the USA where we profess to be so open minded that is not the case for so many. When my cousin caught his teenage son in a dress he beat him and ran him out the house. He used to visit our church but after what his father did I haven’t seen him. The last time I asked about him even his grandmother said she didn’t know where he was. Now it’s amazing to me that when my father found out his nephew was gay he took a totally different approach. He told him he still loved him and when my father hosted a birthday party for my grandfather he welcomed he and his mom into our home. I was sixteen and I remember our going shopping to find my mom a dress. The best word to describe him would be flamboyant. We had a ball. I know that’s why I have the mindset that I do. To me my dad demonstrated what being a true Christian is.
So far the only similarity to Unforgotten Night is the name of the two main leads….if I hadn’t read it in the details given it would have went pass me. I’m hanging in there but even I don’t know why I haven’t dropped this…

Wow! Thank you. I did meet a couple from India on a cruise. They said their marriage was an arranged one but each one had been given the option to decline. Fortunately their marriage worked out. I also remember attending school with a girl whose parents were from Israel. She said it was required that she marry within her clan. Her sister was rebellious. She was not. I’m sure she did what her parents told her. I just can’t imagine having to work hard and then having my parents demand money from me. I loved my parents and when they asked me to sign for a house for them I had no problem because they said they would handle all the financial requirements which they did. I have three adult children . If I needed help they would give it but I am glad I am able to care for myself. It just hurts me to see the physical and emotional damage that Uea has been subjected to.
I’m just curious. Is it customary in Thai culture to support your parents financially? All I want at this point is for Uea to tell his mother to go to hell, change his number and never send her another dime. If that means not seeing his sister ever again, so be it. Seems like King also has mommy issues. I thought arranged dates was also a thing of the past. Please enlighten me. I do hope Uea and King eventually find happiness together.
Ep 4 was so hard to watch. I applaud the production team for tackling such a sensitive topic. Unfortunately too many innocent youth are physically assaulted and face the same treatment from the ones who should protect them. Uea’s way of handling his trauma is not uncommon. The best thing he did was to leave that house. The next best thing would be for him to cut his mother off completely.
This is kinda fun to watch. Imagine traveling 27 years in the future and you are the same but your friends are 27 years older. It’s a little like the series Not Me but in the reverse.
I am absolutely loving this and I don’t usually like horror thrillers but if Gun is in it I’m all in. Gun never disappoints. And I have become a fan of Foei ever since Manner of Death. The storyline is crazy which is as it should be for a thriller. This is going to be some rollercoaster ride.
How this has a 8.0 rating is beyond me. I won’t say anymore. Bad idea to follow Moonlight Chicken with this. This just feels so amateurish. I want to be fair but it feels like the formula bl troupe…sex, betrayal, miscommunication, toxic relationship, and of course an accident.
Top 5 MDL ratings for 2023 so far: 1. 8.6 My School President 2. 8.5 Moonlight Chicken 3. 8.4 The Warp Effect 4. 8.0 Never Let Me Go 5. 7.9 Between Us Not surprisingly the top two both had Gemini and Fourth in the cast! The only one I didn’t love was The Warp Effect…I started it but dropped it at the 3rd episode. I liked the mls but it just didn’t jell with me at the time. I’m going to give it another try after I finish rewatching Moonlight Chicken.
