[Episode 3]I don't like how they wrote Sher to be this badass guy who's more than capable of being by himself,…
" they always make him submit to Fahlan in the end. It's disappointing" Yes it is. He seemed so fierce in the previous episodes.
"WHITE INHALEEEER?! " It's good to have references.
"[But like, not showing it is better" Agree !
"His 'older twin'. By like, minutes?" You have no idea how much it's important for twins.
"You can text. To phone number. It's called "sms" " Don't be too harsh, they are so young 😁
"I really hope Prince is just Sher's friend. Because as friendship, this works pretty well!" I take for sure that Sher considers Prince as a friend. But I begin to think that Prince is the classic boy who has a crush on his childhood friend.
Siam is the main character of this series. The title itself suggests it. He is this longitude that unites and separates them. We are in a Greek tragedy and, in my opinion, there will be no "happy" ending. I was at first, like many, eager to see this story between Wang and In develop and evolve into a fairy tale love. But, as we approach the end, it seems obvious to me, more than ever, that it is doomed to failure. Each of them reacts according to Siam: Sasi who bears the scars of their failed relationship. In who has not been able to affirm his love in the past. Wang who desperately searches for his father through In, the only one who could make him "live" and give him body. Until then, the only things that linked Wang to his father were the few photos he had of him and the globe that never left him. Sasi was never the link she should have been between them. So when Wang meets In, it's pretty much obvious that the latter is going to fill the void in his heart. But this is where things get complicated: those who know me know that the age gap does not bother me. And yet, here, it is combined with so many other elements that it worries me. Is Wang really in love with a man who is his father's age and, moreover, was the one his father loved? Does this very sudden love have a chance to flourish over time or is it the chimera of a very young man looking for a model? Does In really have an interest in Wang, or is Wang just a shadow of Siam? I am a woman and I am straight. I always knew that if one of my children told me that he was gay, I would accept it, wholeheartedly. Each of us, based on their experience or their feelings has their opinion on Sasi. So here is mine. Sasi loved a man, madly. This man was not made for her. Did she notice it immediately or as their relationship progressed? Her suffering was no less hard to bear than that of Siam. He didn't have to marry her, but he did, and she had every right to believe he loved her. In the end, the only proof she has left of this doomed marriage is Wang. And, like in a nightmare, history repeats itself. I think I would have it bad too. It's not the fact that her son is gay that bothers her. It's that he's in love with In. Last remark, on an important point which disturbs me. Knowing everything that happened between Siam, In and herself, she moves in with In, whom she should have avoided like the plague. I admit, it puzzles me.
"I'm glad the story is respected (Maybe Afterday asked it that way)." I also think it's way easier to stick to…
Product placements are the only real "plus" writers add in the series. 🤣 And ofc I want a plot too. Not necessarily amazing. But one, at least. Not as in Physical therapy. (And yet, I watched it all; gave me so much laugh).

Yes, Dek-d is a uni platform, with a novel section. And more or less talented authors. But they dare, and I'm respectful of that. For MOD, I was not convinced for all the med story. Triage seemed to have been really worked on. But maybe I'm wrong about MOD. Well, I'm not very regardfull, as long as the series is cute. I like it or I don't like it. And, tbh, only a few bl are a masterpiece. Most of them remind me of books written only for women (Harlequin books, for ex), with always the same background : Rich man Poor woman Love Misunderstandings .... Not anybody can be Tolstoi, Hugo, Whitman, Salinger and so on. But I don't care. Sometimes, I just want a story with fun, love, tears (not to much)and a happy ending.

" I also think it's way easier to stick to a book with fairly simple slice-of-life premise and setting, compared to some other, more ambitious novels." Yes, it's a story about youth and Eiw discovering he might be gay (even he doesn't express this in words), is the main purpose.
"(in screenwriting department, for example)." Right now, I'm dead laughing 🤣
Triage, imo, was way better than MoD, for the medical stuff. It's the same author, but maybe she had nothing to say for MoD and wanted a better description of it.
Thai novels are very numerous, often written by young people, certain talented, others not, but this is a "reservoir" for series. No doubt that, when chosen by producers, they are modified to stick to what the viewers want. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's average, sometimes it's so bad that we wonder why they filmed the series.
All novel writers, all producers and all actors are not on the same level.
This episode was almost perfect. They are teenagers, with teenage concerns (friends, first girlfriend, school...) So, I'm not surprised that not much is happening...yet. No drama, a happy life, all those things that make those years, most of the time, our fondest memories later. And then, the book itself is not very long (27 chapters, 2 episodes for 1 chapter). I'm glad the story is respected (Maybe Afterday asked it that way). The actors are natural and have the right attitude. Things should evolve very quickly next week.
Yes it is. He seemed so fierce in the previous episodes.

I take for sure that Sher considers Prince as a friend.

Soooo true 🤣
I hope too there will not be another tragedy, physical or emotional.
But, I doubt ...

And Thailand at the time (more than today), was like every other country, not open to homosexuality.
It's a very interesting idea.
What do you think, personaly ?
🤣

It's so ... Grrrrrr
🤣🤣
I think the next episode will be the final one for her.
They are teenagers, with teenage concerns (friends, first girlfriend, school...)
So, I'm not surprised that not much is happening...yet.
No drama, a happy life, all those things that make those years, most of the time, our fondest memories later.

As a mom too, I'd be proud of my son (or daughter) as well.
