I'm 4 weeks late to the start of the party...and boy have I been missing out. Just finished episode 1 and OMG the YEARNING!!! It was so intense it was giving me heartburn.
New rule I'm making for myself...go through my watch later list and send the garbage to the dropped pile. When gems like this exist, then there's no reason for me to waste my precious life hours on substandard crap when I can simply spend my free time lamenting the fact that I'll never find a man who will look at me the way these two look at each other...I feel so single π
Every now and then I feel the need to have a nice slithering wallow in my own moral grey areas - and this show is feeding that need nicely. I'm obsessed, I'm sat, and I'm loving Zhen Xin's girlfriend... she's an absolute hoot.
How to remove that main couple/second couple syndrome in one easy lesson...make it the same people playing both. I love how in the main storyline Zhang Zhun is like a deer caught in a trap, and in the second storyline his character Gao Zhun is the one laying the trap. Such an interesting show.
Episode 3 when they're in the trailer - at the 35:09 mark they start playing background music that I swear is from some 80's Hollywood movie soundtrack that's right on the tip of my tongue and it's going to drive me frigging nuts until I figure it out
I was trying to hold off on this until all the episodes were out. I heard it was made by the same people who made Secrets Happened on the Litchi Island, which was (to me) OK. I mean, I gave it an 8 which is still higher than I rate a lot of shows, but I wasn't gushing about it. Then I kept seeing the reels of this one being posted all over my socials, and I caved, and the agony of waiting for the next episode begins. The 2 main leads don't just have chemistry, they have CHEMISTRY. Watching each of the 5 episodes so far, I kind of feel that I'm intruding on something private and personal. With 11 episodes left to go, there's no way I'm we're not about to be put through the wringer - and I'm here for it. Destroy me, pummel my heart, and please leave me with a warm hug and a soft forehead kiss at the end before you go.
I'm sorry, my depraved sense of humour couldn't help it. While Wayu and Ice were slogging it away during that fight scene, all that was going through my head (because of the prop they used) is "The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed"...I apologise, I really do...but it wasn't my fault.
Since it's just a TV show I have no problem recommending Patricide as the most logical solution to Mueang's problems. As the *held responsible* older sibling to a very irresponsible younger brother, I felt that outburst like a punch in the chest. There's a reason I tend to always side with the villain - at least they understand what I've been through. It's taken me my whole life to realise that it's OK to be a disappointment.
My current watchlist is so long that I don't remember exactly which show I heard this in, but it was recent...Why be concerned about living up to other people's expectations when they always fail to live up to yours.
Mueang, do away with your dad, sell the farm to Sila, and go get yourself a life.
To cringe is to be free...after this episode I'm as free as a bird. Good on those actors for doing what they do, because I certainly couldn'tβat least not in public. Still loving the show though, but part of loving it is that I spend half of each episode dying from second hand embarrassment. 'Up' in his little tight black top, and his crisp white shirts with the sleeves rolled...I spend the other half of each episode trying to still my throbbing heart.
Pardon the pun, but I have 'no regret' at all about watching this movie. Was absolutely not what I was expecting, on any level. Gritty, emotional, depressing, but also funny at the most unexpected times too.
I don't think I'm going to survive this show...my rage is eating me alive. Lu Feng sweetie, you get a pass, but oh my wordy lordy - I'm not a violent person but I've never wanted to unleash a swinging baseball bat to the face of the characters of a show as much as I do with this one. Lu Feng, not YOU honey buns...but the rest of them AAARRRGGGGHHHH!!!
OK, so...if you kiss the person with whom you've swapped bodies, then - physically you're basically making out with yourself, which is really just *cough-cough* 'self love' *cough-cough*
Jae On..."Just kiss me and I'll do whatever you say"...yeah, right...like he's ever taken No for an answer. Manipulative little snot. That kid is a red flag in the making.
I'm almost at the end of Episode 4, and I think that's it for me. It's just too...too...I dunno...poorly done, maybe? I can handle awful dubbing if the rest of the show is good, but this show is just lacking on multiple levels.
There are WAY too many unanswered questions for this to only have one episode left. Having said that, if there ever comes a day that I find out there is no season 2 for this show...then welcome to my villain era. SCD is my personal #1 of 2026.
When Net and JJ first paired together, I didn't quite see it. Their arc in the Next Prince was a bit blah. Episode 5 changed my mind...drastically. They're freaking ADORABLE together, especially in the boat where Klao leans his head against Phop's shoulder, and I could be mistaken, but it seemed like Net (rather than Phop) was the one who couldn't control the tiny little smile that escaped his lips. I came into this with low expectations, and though it took 5 episodes for me to get into it, I'm now hooked.
