I agree YuNorth's story was written soo well and TimPai's was written soo horribly. Everything took proper time…
Yes so true it worked for YN but not for TP. And I think the issue is that Tim's character is also writen as one of the comedic relief acts of the series. There are others but Tim is on elementar on which is no suprise bc Junior has an impacable comedic timing and is quit perfect for a roll like that. And after Tim got found out at the wedding, i found the playfull, lighthearded comedic part of Tim to win Pai back was actually where they went wrong in the writting. They should have gone the way the went with Yu and shown Tim's backstory and how he resolves that actualy be showing that he knows he hurt Pai
I am soo conflicted about this series! Love the chemistry and superb acting of the 4 of them! I want more JuniorMark and OhmPoon series for sure! That said, i feel iky about the script and characters. If what a light romcom is what this series was all about, to just entertaine and enjoy without thinking to mich about it, which I asume, was the goal, than maybe choosing a scam storyline wasn't the way to go bc it is actually quite a heavy topic, I mean it takes quit a tool on the victims, they develop trust issue not only on other but on themself too, doubting themself and everything. I think Mark did an amazing job at protraying that! And this is quit hard to show in a series and at the same time keep the lighhearded romcom vibe they were aming for. So I think this is the main issue this series has, which results in all the critic it is getting. I agree that Pai is way to forgiving and not angry enough and Tim has to suffer and prove himself more. I just think there is much more to be resolvedโฆ and for Tim to respect Pai's boundaries. I mean I really hope that there is some time jump next ep before Tim askes Pai to marry him as seen in the preview bc Pai JUST SAID to take it slow, and asking to marry him is in fact not taking it slow AT ALL. And that is just one of the many example of tim crossing bondaries and it is frustating me bc there is no character development there! And I think all of this is a way to keep the lighthearded romcom feel of the show. They focused a lot on Tim beeing playfull to win Pai back which pissed a lot of ppl of - me included - but this was a choice the series maker made bc of the romcom vibe they were going for. And it just ended up in us thinking Tim is not realising how much he actualy hurt Pai and is not realy facing the consequences of his actions! Bc of this, I have realised, that I have grown to dislike Tim which each ep after he was found out. And this is saying something for Juniors acting bc he is a gem! But I also realised this is the way the writes wrote him unfortunately due to the lighthearded romco feel they wanted this to be. also the Parents and Grandparents are pissing me off so much! Where are Pai's parents in all of this? And the audacity Tim's parents have for scolding him after abandoning him with hugh depts .... take responsibility in your part in it WTF!? Anyway what I wanted to say is a scaming story shouldn't have been the base for this romcom and this wanting to be a romcom is actualy what went wrong eith this story. So I am done giving my 2 cents.. Welcome to my TedTalk ๐คฃ
Can't believe it took me so long to watch this! I have been an avid ZeeNewNew Fan since I watch cutie pie. They literaly are the first ever cp I shiped too. So I finally got over my fear of watching horror genres - esp. since khemjirah wasn't that scary at all and even though Godess bless you from the death was scary I enjoyed it so much - and watched this too. Espected some few jump scares at the begining it wasn't very scary either and I realy enjoyed it. Yes It is not perfect at all - esp. If you compare to the other 2 masterpeaces I just mentioned, absolutely recommend if you haven't seen them yet - but I went in whitout any expectation, just wanting to get my ZeeNewNew fix bc I miss them and it delivered that. And seeing Namping in it was a plus I didn't expected. Must have been his first roll and I loved it so much.
I know a lot of people don't like the Jamie/Marvis couple, but personally I love them!! The only problem I find…
Wait ppl do not like JamieMarvies?!?! How?!? Why?!?! I love their dynamic and chemistry, they are such a refreshing contrast cp to DuangQin which just elevades this series even more! While they are more playfull and unserious about each other in the begining you can clearly feel how they do develope feelings for each other, i just love that. And It just works! I wish they had more screentime too but also I am fine with seeing more of DuangQin to be honest ๐คญ
He only came forward when qin said "duang i can't take it anymore" and qin trusted him enough to ask for…
Him saying it broke my heart! How the fuck do you not take this kid in our arms after he fully breaks down before you! Like how? How do you not hug your kid imidately but just watch as he breaks down before you and someone else has to tell you to hug him! It is just baffeling to me how emotionaly dense his parents are!!
Omg I just started to watch the new ep and only now realise duang's place is the same as khabkluen's place from…
"Duang I can't take it anymore" "Just hug him! It's all it takes to fix it, just hugh him" ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐๐โค๏ธโ๐ฉนโค๏ธโ๐ฉน no I can't take this I needed to stop and cry ! Most heartbreaking lines I have ever heard ๐ญ๐ญ
Omg I just started to watch the new ep and only now realise duang's place is the same as khabkluen's place from Star in my Mind ๐๐ฑ๐ฅฐ it's like going full circle because TeeTeePor played in Star in my mind too! okey I'm off to watch the ep now hahaha aahh I can't wait any longer this week has been torture
I wonder if the backlash from Season 1 was so bad that it made the season 2 crew afraid of making fixed ships…
Also remember the fotos of the cast after they read the script, they looked traumatised! But what we have seen so fare wasn't realy traumatising ... so I guess maybe they toned that version of the script down too.
Again! Not even a peak btw Dean and Arnold, just an almost . .. s2 is realy not going in like s1 did and I blame it all on the fixed ships! And also where is boston, he was the one creating most of the mess! Ugh I miss the mess of s1 but AouBoom is saving the show for me!
Okay just finished the 15th episode but looks like we're not gonna get Dao's past like why Dao is like that? Why…
100% the book is soo much better! I haven't finished it yet (just read the chapter aboit Dao backstory of beeing bullied) but really everyone who watches the series sould read the book, it is soo much more meaningfull and deep and just ughh soo good! Also FahPhoons story is the o ly othere Book I read of these Bookseries and it is also wotrth the read!
They've added like 20 chapters in 1 episode ๐๐ before this you also get Dao's SA backstory and stuff.They've…
OMG the huge book spoiler I just read! Ahhh ahahah, soo freaking excited to read this part. Thit being more anoyed than scared by beeing kinnaped just sounds sooo like him ๐คฃ I just read the chapter about Daos backstory of beeing bullied and almost gang r*ped and WOW, he is really so strong and though and level headed, the way I admire him even more now, ugh Dao might be my all time fav charcater now. Also agh they realy left out aaaa looot in the series ๐ฎunderstandable when you only have 8ep to tell the story but ugh still, what a shame, I would have loved to see Dao fight the gang to protect thecats and Min and to see him set his bullie on fire ๐คฉ๐คญ๐ they really toned the violence down in the series ๐
Ahhh that ending of ep15! Whaaaattt! I was soo shoked and confused and ahh what is happening?!?! I'm not that far ahead in the book yetโฆ they just had their first kiss in the car after dao showed thit his drawing, so the whole of ep15 was new for me bc I had no idea what will happen and aaahhhh I really need to read the book and read even furter bc there is nooooo way I will be able to wait until next week ๐ญ
and was hoping with every fiber of my being that they wouldn't kiss while he was still in Lin her body, but alas...
100% agree! I found the kiss so weird, okey we saw it with win but for korn, even if it is win in there he is still kissing Lin's lips so why does that not weird him out??? And id did make Win questions Korn's feelings towards him or his sister even further!
Ooh and don't get me started on the mom!!! What the hell was that! No this is some real bullshit she did and Win forgiving her so easily just bc she cried and hit herself oit of guilt ... well just no
I do have a problem with the portraial of the women in this series! Like lin was soooo winny and always crying and they made her very weak like her body always fanting and everything ... really didn't like that and yes,like I sad, don't let me start about the mother or even the aunt ๐
Ooh this was soo good! Watched it in one sitting I couldn't put it away and watched the whole thing ๐ this is just another example of the superbe actor that EarthMix are! That ep where Win experience PMS ๐๐this was pure comedy gold! And korn trying his best to be helpfull! Ugh soo caring ๐ฅฐ KornWin are soo dear to my heart now!
I noticed that EarthMix are given/choose very intersting characters to play, like most of them didn't have like the typical jobs like a fancy CEO, Business Man typ of thing or like college student. Ok yes, on OFDO they do play students but Earth was a shop owner and Mix like an interior designer at a mall If I remember correctly in Moonlight chicken, in ATOTS they were a ranger and volunteer teacher/student and here they are farmers, which is a most unusual job for bl characters I have seen so fare. And I realy love that for them. Hope to see them play more versatile characters like that.
Thought dumondi peaked with khemjira, and than they giv us this series! This ep was too much ๐ญ๐ petition to only see happy goofy duang and happy qinn from now on
Ahhh SandRay Cameo had me screaming! Oley but why am I wishing for the series to be more messy! Like it's only friends after all! So rome should have gone for Pete - kinda glad he didn't but also ugh the mess it would have produced would have been soo entertaining. ๐ I just feel like they are not going full in plotwise like they did in s1 and that feels off. But if I saw it right in the preview, I see some mess might happen btw Arnold and Dean and oohh that would be ๐ฑ as long as they dont mess with aouboom Im fine hahaha
