Ok, it is getting increasingly unlikeable with the characters becoming rather repellent. The housemate is a selfish and arsehole psycho, Jin Woo is confusing, the girls are annoying and the plot development is gradually implausible. Like why the fuck did not they report the attack? Was that babbling from Jin Woo supposed to be a rational explanation? Yet, I am somehow still curious where it is going. Roa is an interesting character for sure.
I just wanna give the shoutout to the translation team of this show because it probably has the best official…
They even took the time and attention to explain the cultural references and in-jokes, just like the scenes spoofing classic Thai movies in the latest episode.
That was heavy stuff. At least Dr Metha is not as bad as everybody thought he was.
Actually I never thought he was. He clearly has some grudges, mainly poisioned into him by his father, but he clearly cares about everyone around, including Prakan. He refused Nathee's scheming plan as well.
She is not cheating on Tol. That guys is her bf or ex or whatever. He is the one she talked to on the phone to…
I have not read the novel either. It is enough to watch the series with a little bit more attention to see that. Just listen to their private conversations and see how they behave when they are tête-à-tête. They are never intimate.
So far these episodes HAVE BEEN AMAZING!I LOVE BL dramas with more of a plot then the romance, so with an additional…
She is not cheating on Tol. That guys is her bf or ex or whatever. He is the one she talked to on the phone to whom she told "we agreed to take a break". It has not been established so far but from the way Mai and Tol behave when they are together it is quite clear this relationship is just a facade. They both just pretend.
And this show now ventures into the Robin Cook territory. Dr Sak seems to have a special business of selling organs to wealthy patients - just like in Cook's Coma - as it seems. I am still not quite how this is organized inside the walls of that hospital - it was confirmed Rit had his surgery there, and not in that special clinic - beacuse to get away with stuff like this he needs too many accomplices, like the entire operating theatre for a start. But we will see how the story unfolds. It is clear that the stories of Tol, Rit, Mai, Sak are all related in a way. My hunch is that Rit's kidney was taken away to be given to Mai's mom.
As for the time loop, it is obvious that Tin has to go back earlier and earlier in time and learn about the stories to get out of this whirlpool. He always tries to solve the problems technically and by mechanical, external intervention. That is what he has done so far with Tol, and that is what he is likely to do with Rit when he tries to prevent him from committing suicide (preview of episode 5).
Tin clearly has to get to know these guys better and acknowlegde how they reached to the point they run into their death. And he needs to change the narrative around them so they never get there.
I suggest you to go back and rewatch Country Boy 1, in particular to the swing scene, and if you still think it is more bromance than BL, I have not much more to say.
I expected an outcry when Mon chose So over Saint but wow. Saint had literally years to act on his feelings, but…
But apart from that, I have Utsukushi Kare and ITSAY/IPYTM déjá vu, where irrespective of whether some people symapthized with a main character's choice or not, they deciced he should be with the other one they chose for him, regardless of his own feelings.
They do not realize you cannot decide rationally who you fall in love with, and they do not realize either it is exactly the same stituation when you love Y, yet your mom comes and tells you should date Z instead, because Z is so nice to you, has such a good upbringing, stable carreer, acceptable social background and anyway she just knows better who is good for you.
I have just realized now I understand Amber's claustrophobia when they were stuck in the storage room with Ah Le, after I have seen how he had been locked up in the toilet.

It is a thoroughly intriguing journey.

But I still want follow-up/second season.
There's a lot more to tell about their story.
