I am in the camp: his acting needs improving and director has a big role in that as well (I am not fan of Off but he was much better than unusually in Not Me), so it's not just Dunk's problem, however he should have the biggest motivation to better himself.
Perhaps part of the problem is not only genre but partner as well (I am not claiming that Joong is problematic here but perhaps he would get better chemistry with somebody else? 🤷‍♀️)? IMO FlukeFirst (Not Me) was so-so but FirstKhao is 🔥 (even when they were not exactly together like in Midnight Chicken).

I think people who are criticizing him are mostly commenting that his acting skills needs improving (which I agree with) - acting is his job, so improvement is his business. Good director can make a difference and I hope it happens here (I am not expecting him to be on FirstKhao or Gun's level but at least I would like to be able enjoy his parts).
However if you saw some baseless bashing then I agree with you - it should not happen.

I read it so many years ago (after watching the movie + in my country only 1 or 2 of Shakespeare's works are in curriculum) that I forgot about others - it just left me with bad impression of what he was doing to Kat (she was too modern for those times, so I get why she was considered shrew) - if I remember correctly he was sleep-depaving her (so basically a torture).

How similar can it be, though? (I liked the movie but the play 🫤 she was not an angel but that doesn't excuse abuse).
I think that only the taming of Joong by Dunk (as in trailer it seems like Khao is going to be quite proactive, Ray like 🤭).

I honestly no longer remember if they were different. I just wasn't swept by him and perhaps haven't paid enough attention to him.
Honestly even First was not as noticeable to me in Not Me - his new pairing with Khao made him skyrocket in my opinion as they have great chemistry. Perhaps if Fluke gets paired with somebody with whom he gets it as well, I might become a fan.

It's fine - it's hard to convey emotions in text (even with emotions) and I think your "confrontation level" with me was not at any high/alarming level (I had some quite heated replies in my long, long life 😉 on this platform).

You have right to your opinion and it might be shared by most, I don't know.
For me in both he had this constantly pained expression (perhaps it got better in later EPs 🤷‍♀️). I saw comments agreeing with me but if you see him differently then good for him.

Thank you 🥰
I totally agree. If people were making up stories about him - then the legal actions would have some merit but having an opinion? 🙄
I think that Ohm (Untill We Meet Again) and Fluke (Not Me/My Favourite) have similar issue as Dunk. One expression + looks.
I also think that Off is overrated and he is not on Gun's level but he was much better in Not Me, so if director+screenwriters of this series step up they might make him watchable 🤞

Really? As I am not interested in them, I had no idea about any legal actions. Can you elaborate?
(There is this YouTube account what seems to be enamored with them and it keeps showing in my feed even though I don't even check other pics in post - YouTube and it's algorithm 😮‍💨 - so I thought that that perhaps it's just me who isn't a fan)

Star in my Mind (SimM) was a let down and I liked Sky in your Heart (SiyH)! I was wondering if SimM might not have decreased SiyH viewership because after such start who would have expected something better from "sequel"?

For me they never were close to my favourites (even For ebook are higher) and that it since Star in my mind (I couldn't finish Hidden Agenda 😮‍💨).
The funniest is that it's Joong, who is here Khao's older brother, is 3 years younger. Is Khao Angeles seductor? 🤭
What we can count on is chemistry between FirstKhao 🔥 and if they add good script + "level up" JoongDunk (a good director definitely can do it - I am not a fan of Off but his work in Not Me was much better than his previous ones... and Cooking Crush as well) it might be one of GMMTV bests (perhaps even Thai/BL best) 🤞.

I think it was recorded not long after Only Friends, so perhaps they used the same wardrobe to save money. Trailers and finished product differ, so let's hope (then again First's character is definitely not going to be wearing any suits 🤭).

I like it as well - it's quite funny and here we have a new BL thorpe: "love from the 1st kick in the ⚽⚽" 🤭 (or perhaps we are going to later find out later that Phum used this as an excuse and he had crush on Preem for a long time...🤔).
QToey scene in the bar with seniors reminded me about Love with Flaws (if you haven't seen it then search for it's BL cut - there are 4 parts and each 20 min long, if I remember correctly). Toey was offer a lift and I literally saw the scene of Park Do Wook asking Ho Dol if he wanted to go to his place. I wish they did it similarly to Love with Flaws as it was so funny (poor Mr. Park - always but of joke 🤭).

Korean BL realy should do workshops for kissing/intimacy. I am not saying that I want them eating each others tongues or something like KinnPorshe/Bed Friends but this kiss was a small step up from Colour Rush (dead 🐟 kiss). I get older step-bro - he was not expecting it but younger was clearly pent up with desire (and considering number of GFs he had, I bet he had at least some experience with kissing).
Overall I like the series and want last EP now!

If I remember correctly they recently said that they wanted to take part in rom-com (I think First said that he wants to be the rich one, who throws money on his problems 🤭) as they had enough dark themed series.
However I am definitely not complaining - I would be actually worried if it was a rom-com, especially considering some of GMM TV "treasures" (*cough*Cooking Crush*cough* even Gun could not save that 😮‍💨).

I loved 10 things I hate about you (it hat a really nice soundtrack)! The play is IMO to misogynistic (I know that were the times and she was no angel but he was abusive towards her)
I saw trailer and now I am wondering how exactly is that connected with it? The only common point seems to be "taming" of Faded by Style...
Regardless - I cannot wait to see it 😍

🤦‍♀️

😅

😂

The Heart Killers (no MDL page yet, as far as I can tell).
Trailer: https://youtu.be/NBUo3qnOWng?si=RhVXmSjgDCzfSxNG

They (JoJo) don't look (act) so bad in the trailer, so they shouldn't lower the quality 🙏.
When I saw their mix I thought that perhaps they want JoJo to learn something from FirstKhao. Perhaps they might get a good director who is going to "level them up"? 🤞
(I can't wait for MDL page for this series, so I can bookmark it and be certain that I won't miss it 🥰).

I was thinking the same.
What can he possibly be doing to get it every time?!
Prod should just get together with Jess... 🎵 but the heart wants what it wants 🎵

Considering how popular and liked both are, I would say that you are in minority in this opinion.
If you mean behind the scenes, then yeah - they need to do much, much better.

It was like they could not decide what to do, as some were a bit more passionate but most were on Color Rush level 😒
