I really liked it, it was a nice watch! There are some flaws but overall, it was good and even better than the…
Yes, the dubbing was bad. And I meant that not just because they used it but it was so glaring in Ji Ho and Yi Won scenes (there were also some scenes where dialogues were barely audible). Maybe they had some issue with sound quality when they were recording and decided to just dub it? Or is that a new trend (like I think we all like Chinese "BLs" and they are always dubbed, now Thai's "Crazy Handsome Rich" is dubbed by 1 person because of comedy style and perhaps Korea decided to hop on the dubbing train? 😉)?
Random thoughts: Ji Ho should stop slouching - I know that some tall people have this tendency but it was making me worried about his spine and not what was happening. At least the kissing scenes were ok (be gone era of "Color Rush" kisses!). In some scenes Soo Won looked more like Zon from Thai "Why R U" than Tutor. Why You Gyeom did not clear the dating at the bus stop is beyond me - was it to test him, like: "who is more important?" Is Soo Won a good friend? I kind of get kissing while drunk. I don't get kissing while sober. I don't get not telling your friend about their SO cheating. He should be feeling guilty about that! How many time should they kiss before he even mentioned her? As Saifah and Zon we my faves in oryginal - here I preferred You Gyeom and So Won (even though it was more questionable morally).
I miss OffGun too. When will I get to see them together again? 😿
Yes, let's hope it's ambitious project (like in "Not me" Gun had to play very different characters and the physical side of all the stunts/fighting scenes/etc. was definitely demanding) 🤞
Tho I'm a bit afraid about that spooky part where Jom saw himself from the outside, that will bring more conflict…
Do you want spoiler from novel? 1st thing: nobody is dreaming about anybody or has hallucinations (except 3rd Yai). So Jom meets 3 Yai's: 1. Yai1 in time between World Wars. In novel Jom thinks he went to the past via wormhole and it so happens that he has once situation where the he suddenly is back in modern time but it's kind of like flash and not real time travel (different feeling than when he travels) but it last only a moment. Yai is in love in Jom from 1st sight (he later said that it was like he always loved Jom), he is heartbroken that he needs to leave him to go to England to study but promises that he will be back in few years and tells Jom to wait for him. Jom notices that his shadow is getting fainter and once it basically disappears the fog comes and (in front of Yai's eyes) takes him to: 2. Yai2 in XVIII century (he isn't not sure but it seems like 1st half of it). He was there when Jom arrived (in the pool, in cave), so he was suspicious of him. This time it was Jom who decided to pursue Yai (did not have to work for long 😏). Here it's important to mention Ohm. In this lifetime Yai and Ohm are stepbrothers and are very close and commanders of procession that is to deliver princes (yes, it's Kaew/Kaimuk) from their country back as she is feeling sick, so the king allowed her to come home to recuperate. This turns out to be a lie. Ohm and princes got busy and she is sick because she is pregnant but since the king was never intimate with her it would be obvious that it's not his, so to save her Ohm lied to his brother about the order. Once the truth comes out Jom things that their actions once again show Yai and Ohm true colours. Yai believes in doing what is right/his duty and Ohm just wants to follow his feelings regardless of how they might damage others life's (princess included). Yai locks Ohm up due to him killing one of the kings high ranking soldiers (he was actually protecting Jom and princes by extension) and plans to turn him the next day in, as requested by king's men (killer of the soldier and princess with her people are to go back to king). Ohm yells at Yai that if he loves somebody in this life he curses him not to be with the loved on in this life and the next. Jom notices that his shadow is getting quite faint, so he knows that his time is almost up (he told Yai about it). He decides to take Ohm's place. Killed soldier's friend plas to kill Jom in their custody but Yai shows up (Jom wishes that Yai would remember him when they meet again) and blocks them until fog comes and takes Jom to: 3. back in the present Jom was returned to the moment before car accident and was rescued and landed in hospital. In modern times Yai3 had partners but could not love anybody, so he gave up on love. His mother got info from Yai1 that she is to hire architect with specific name and she finally found him in some magazine. Yai3 was interested why she hired company out of Bangkok and not local, so she showed him the magazine and there is saw Jom's picture and the memories from past life(s) started flooding. He came back to Thailand 2 days earlier that his family just to get back to Jom faster but Jom just had the accident. They later reunite.
Oryginal title of the novel is "Sweet Scent of Love" and it's refering to Plumeria (Lantoms). Jom and Yai2 visit some merchant to purchase stuff and Jom wanders to the garden (due to scent) and sees the tree. He later tells Yai3 that he used this flowers to fall asleep. Yai3 promises to plant it in their home. Yai2 already has few Plumerias next to the guest house (Yai's family lived in main house but he just recently moved to guest house to be able to learn in peace) where he and Jom live and promises to plant more (here Jom lives them next to pillow to sleep better). In modern times (beforentime traveling) there are plenty of Plumeria on the site and Jon was wondering why they were planted as they were considered as signs of bad luck (they are supposedly shelter to spirits and ghosts). Yai2 told him of different meaning - throwing away sorrows ("Lan" = throw away).
Personally, I really liked the synopsis and the character development, but the edits teased me so much with Skinship,…
I agree - I was like: did I miss something? Honestly they could have added like a minute of their "missing" scenes to make it flow logically and smoothly.
No same that’s why I’m like do I need to rewatch before seeing love class 2? Because I can’t seem to remember…
No need to watch it. The only common theme is the fact that some of the mains take part in "love/marriage class". Even the teacher leading the class is different.
Why is everyone's 1sr instinct to steal? 😳 You need just few seconds to check, so why make it more complicated (adding the cousin to help him with that is another hair brain scheme). Luv - don't go even lower by reading somebody's diary! "Are you insane?!" You all are 🤭 I wonder why they are all covering (and his opinion is apparently the only one that counts) before oldest bro 🤔
Please someone send me the version without dubbing of this series🥲 This series has good actors, but the dubbing…
I don't think you are going to find it. Apparently that's part of this style of comedy in Thailand 🤷♀️ What is somewhat funny is that fact that I. behind the scenes you can clearly see boom operator! Why hire him if one is not going to use the sounds recorded? 🙄
The teaching assistant and art student were my highlight for real!!!
If not for the mind games the art student was playing I would call them one of my all time favourites. Good that the art student finały learned to talk (their talk at the bridge was such a let down but he improved). Side note: I was a bit weirded out about professor (the uncle, that was harassing TA) and student. I hope that they are not from the same department because that would have made it so, so bad.
According to novel: Jom is going to disappear in front of Yai's eyes (fog would kind of keep him in immovable…
I think I wrote it misleadingly - we have 3 Yais. According to Jom's timeline he meets them in the following order: 1. Yai in the time between World Wars fell in love in Jom at the 1st sight. He doesn't remember any other life, had no dreams or hallucinations about Jim before (and after) meeting him. 2. Not sure yet about anything concerning Yai in the even further past (haven't read this part yet so I don't know the exact period as well). 3. Yai in the modern times seemed to remember his past life(s). Jom remembers all of it the whole time, so when he hears that the owners son (remember that Jom was responsible for renovation of that house before car accident) is coming and his name is Yai, he is almost certain that it's his Yai. Seems to be happy ending after that (back in the modern time).
When it comes to Ohm - his role was way extended in the series. We barely see him in the between World Wars time - he had maybe 4 appearances (meeting with Kaew; meeting with Jom, so that Jom breaks with him for Kaew; Ohm asking Jom about news of Kaew; Jom found out that Kaew was pregnant and told Ohm about it - no beginning in the woods, no fighting in the shop etc., so no big blow out but more like Jom was slowly accepting the situation... and he had hot young* Yai who was showing [subtly] his interest and then not so subtly 😏 *Yai is 18 during the 1st meeting and Jom is 24, modern time Yai seems to be 28).
question! will this have a sad ending? will jom disappear?: https://youtu.be/Bajl7sxppoA?feature=shared&t=484what…
According to novel: Jom is going to disappear in front of Yai's eyes (fog would kind of keep him in immovable but he could call Yai's name at the last moments, so Yai saw what happened). Then he would reappear in even earlier time. I haven't finished the novel yet but out of curiosity I checked (better would would be "skimmed") that in the end Jom is back in his time - before accident he was supposed to meet owner-lady of the house on Monday (I think that his accident was of Saturday) and the son shows up (so it might be that Jom returned to the "starting point"). Yes, the son is Yai (in this life he is few years older than Jom) and he seems to remember his past life(s). Yai in the 1st world doesn't seem to remember anything (no dreams about each other for any of them as well) and just feelt in love at 1st sight.
Well, It's a grey area I think. Technically what he did is not wrong. He just told the truth. If he lied, the…
I read the novel - he clearly heard them (as the novel is written from his POV). In novel it is shown a bit differently and there are 2 separate instances of the lovers "meeting" - I think that the series kind of mushed them together. I am not advocating for Jom to lie - he did not tell the whole truth. Same with the servant - she lied (by exaggeration) and also did it out of malice (in novel it was more of jealousy that lead her to spy on Kaew). The truth is that nobody should be punished here as nothing actually happened (Kaew has younger sister - 11, I think - that would have been sent in her place if she escaped, so she was never going to do it).
Well, It's a grey area I think. Technically what he did is not wrong. He just told the truth. If he lied, the…
I am quite sure he heard what they were talking about, so he could tell the truth that she was not planning to leave with him. I am not advocating for him to lie but not telling the whole truth is a choice that he made due to anger and not because he was shielding either of the women. Actually I don't think he even though about consequences for any of them (that is no excuse but I get it was in the heat of the moment) even though he lived in this time period long enough to be aware of them (beatings, being thrown out etc.).
I don't think that he is doing it on purpose (maybe subconsciously or maybe deluding himself). I think he might view Lee Jun as unobtainable and hence safe for him to love since it would not be reciprocated. I think he feels protective of him like of little brother (who is innocent and clueless) and that's acceptable love for him. With Simeon is like you said: he is super flirty, so perhaps he doesn't see his relationship with Simeon to end well (like he prefers to have any kind of relationship with Simeon then none if they - in his mind - inevitably break up). On the other hand he is avoiding calls and meeting Simeon because Simeon is irresistible for him, so he is afraid what could happen. That's just my theory - I hope we get it all resolved/explained in a few hours (I would also like to know what exactly happened with Lee Jun to leave idol business).
Simeon and "Hyung" (ex-manager). For me it's clear that there I something between them. Simeon is flirty with him in a different way [then he is with Lee Jun] - he is more sincere, like he is showing his true self. When "Hyung" was asked in ep6 "since when he likes him" (Choi Jun meant Lee Jun, of course), he answered "about 4 years? 5?" (he was Simeon's manager for about 5 years, so it would fit timeline better than him being in love in Lee Jun). I think "Hyung" is using Lee Jun as as shied/excuse not to start relationship with Simeon (perhaps he was concerned about their work relationship or status or destroying Simeon's career if it ever got our that they are together...).
Well, It's a grey area I think. Technically what he did is not wrong. He just told the truth. If he lied, the…
He might not have known but what was he expecting? That there are not going to be any repercussions? Him not thinking ahead is not an excuse for adult. Smal children know that there are consequences of their actions. I get that he was in highly emotional state and was not thinking rationally but does that absolve him from responsibility (I am not advocating for him to lie just that he could have painted a different picture - perhaps say that the guy was pestering her... because he was)? If the kids play with ball and accidentally break the window what should happen? Nothing since they did not intend to break the window? At least they (and Jom in this case) should feel guilty.
Yes, we don't know either way, so it's not fair to assume the worst of Kaew. On the other hand we can of Ohm and this is what I am trying to convey - Jom's feelings were misplaced. In the novel he even later checked up on Kaew to let Ohm know that she was fine (and pregnant). He was helping the guy who cheated on him! 🤦♀️ I had the same issue with "Love Syndrome": Itt suggested Gear to do something to Night. Gear did it out of his own free will. Who was punished by Night's bro, Day? Itt. Only him. If you want to punish somebody then it should be the perpetrator!
That's actually exactly what he thought in novel.In the novel Kaew also did not blame him but he felt so guilty…
Is karma fair? Is it always happening? There are a lot of bad people who never get punishment and a lot of good people who never catch a break. Let me play devil's advocate for Ohm: he was abroad for 4 years (I don't think that they met during that time in person). It's hard to maintain long-distance relationship. People grow apart. It's Okey for the feelings to disappear - perhaps Ohm was no longer in love in Jom before he met Kaew. In all that what is not ok is Ohm using lame excuse of saying it face to face when he was cheating for half a year. He should have either told Jom over the phone that he fell our of love with him or should have been waiting to return to Thailand to tell Jom face to face before starting relationship with Keaw.
For you it's future bad luck but the characters here are not going trough live/reincarnations in the same time line, so what for ones is fire is for others past.
Well, It's a grey area I think. Technically what he did is not wrong. He just told the truth. If he lied, the…
I agree that Jom might have not expected her r*pe. But what was he expecting for her to happen? In the novel he got accused of helping Kaew and Ohm escape and that would have gotten him severe bearings. He knew more or less the punishments that were given, so he should expect severe punishment for her cheating. I have problem with revenge when it ricochets on other people. It's like the "logic" of children paying for their parents mistakes (ostracism towards bastards but not both of their parents). If Kaew knew nothing of Jom and Ohm's relationship (quite possible since they met abroad 6months earlier), then it's not her fault. Additionally Kaew tried to get rid of Ohm - she was telling him to forget her. Why didn't Jom told about that? Had he did that perhaps he could lessen her "punishment".
