Aam is well-known for his oppositionist stance against the current Thai political administration as well as the general Thai social structure, so it is clearly intentional and the plot is a political allegory in istelf.

The sister is better staying single. She would save somebody else's life by that humane action.

He is not an ex. They never were a couple.

Try practicing punctuation and spelling.

This episode gave a curiously effective mix of comedy and dramatic emotions, with several moments of unique dark, black humour.

The problem with the abusive father arc is only partly because a much better and much more relevant aspect (Bai Lang's PTSD) was seemingly sacrificed at the altar of this horrendous cliché, that is otherwise totally out-of-tune with the atmosphere and vibe of the show so far.

The other and much more serious problem is that once again it is normalized. An adult and self-sustainable young man lets himself beaten up to the point of having serious and lasting scars by his sadistic father, and he still begs for approval instead of telling this monster to fuck himself. I am sick up to the back teeth that parental abuse is always justified in Asian shows. Here the mother says "like father, like son". No one stands up to themselves against this fucker. In "About Youth" an angelic boy was abused by two goddamn awful parents who were never called out for their behaviour, on the contrary their continuous terror and tormenting their child was reinforced by other characters ("All parents love their child, the child however does not always like their methods"). This makes me fucking livid.

Why the hell cannot we see just one occasion where this changes? Why cannot we see just once a self-conscious gay man to say "you are not my father if you treat me like this"? The only acceptable outcome would be the father being called out and sent to his Damascus Road and make him apologize, but I take the bet it is not gonna happen again. I am 100% sure they are gonna find some rubbish excuse and sweep his abuse under the rug.

And don't even start this "different culture" and "importance of family bond in Asia" bullshit others have already come up with. No one is more open to different cultures and traditions than me, but that has imits and does not include condoning abuse. This treatment of children as your property and that your parents are always your parents never mind how physically and mentally abuse you has once been the standard in the western world also and it has changed. So don't tell me that just because it is Asia it has to stay like this till the end of the world. And dramas would be the percfect instrument to start to change this mentality. I would be the last person to say that fictional shows need to be educational all the time, but the fact no show ever tries to go this route just once is infuriating.

Put this on spolier.

And here we go again. Abusive, sadist father who beats his gay son and the filial son takes the abuse and begs for his approval instead of telling the fucker to die alone then and rot in hell.

Christ how I hate this in Asian shows. And they cannot stop with this shit. I wish the proposal scene in the preview came as a consequence of the father being kicked to death by the horse, but I have no high hopes.

I am very disappointed. I liked this series so far, but this horrible cliché was totally uncalled for, and I really did not excpect it from Lin Pei Yu.

@thewatch313430 I am still a bit anxious what will happen if YouTube has a closer look at that one. The channels of Rex Lantano (Papa What is Love?) and Life Time Dream Production (PRE*SO) were deleted for much less graphic content.

Knowing the prudish standards of YouTube I don't get my hopes high.

It is interesting to see Nat as a villain here as well as in 609 Bedtime Story.

It started off so well with the first story, and at such a high pitch of emotions and angst, that I feared it was not gonna keep that high standard, but it managed to be consistently intelligent, thought-provoking and compelling over 20 episodes. The first 3 stories were edge-of-the seat, only the 4th segment got some disparate elements and script discrepancy, but even that remained civilized and engaging. The writing was full of unexpected twists and turns, it featured muliti-layered and multifaceted, gullibble and brilliantly flawed people, it caught the actors at their very best form who gave the best performances of their career so far, and nonethless it gave us a sharp look at the Thai entertainment industry and went even farther and deeper than Lovely Writer or Call It What You Want. One of the very best of this year. The key reason it did not resonate with the average BL fans that well is quite possibly because the couples/characters were too complex, often manipulative and frequently unscruplulous for the purists. To me this was probably the the bet aspect about it. By turns I could despise and feel for them alternately.

The plot and even the characterizations of the leads are not dissimilar from Golden Blood.

His name is Songklod Kunlachat Cheythong. His IG is @songklod.klc. He is an airline host (at Air Asia, actually) like so many other Thai actors.

So did Team’s friend die because he tried to save him and was Team’s brother is a friend/love of the deceased boy, so that is why he is angry with him or was that boy his half-brother from a different mother who did not die at last but he cannot swim due to his shock or what? I really don’t know.

BL fans' idea about acting on MDL is just as negligible and childish in general as in almost every other respect. They seem to think that if someone is cold, stiff and not very expressive in mime that indicates lack of acting abilities. As if there were no characters irl who are just like this, and who should be played exactly this way.

OK, I gave the benefit of doubt and chance to reform for the gay couple in the gang and I have considered the girl and his snuffed out bf the only psychos, but after today's episode that is gone.

In most of those I am watching there are.

For those watching this show - and in general every fucking BL for the goddamed kisses and skinship alone - I have a suggestion. Go to this site:
