Do you not get the feeling that everyone already knows that Daon's super giving/nice anyway? Tbh I feel like people try to take advantage of his lack of confidence/self-assertion and do it shamelessly because he's categorically good-looking and wouldn't second guess any implied lack of satisfaction that he shows because "omg this hot guy is actually being nice to me!" ...his character kind of reminds me of the handsome Wei Jie from the ancient Chinese legends. The saying goes that his death at a young age was due to an excess of attention. In spite of being so handsome and kind, I feel like Daon's going to lose it all. T_T Hopefully, this isn't the case.

True, but based on what we saw on screen last episode: So Hee purposely chasing inviting herself, then later chasing off two girls. Then in this episode, he flat out told her he wants to do something with Taekyung and to go away and she says, "Ok, but I'm REALLY gonna wait for you".

It's hard (for me at least) to believe that it's "she doesn't know how to take a hint" and not "she refuses to take a hint", BUT we have a long way to go. I don't hate Sohee though. I hope she actually gets a happy ending.

Sohee introduces herself in the second episode as the "crush of 3 years" of Daon. So, she's openly liked/flirted with Daon for three years, but is still not in a relationship with him...I don't think Daon's the one who needs clarification here.

I know Shinwoo/Taekyung is end game for most people and I won't be totally unhappy if it is, but Daon! :'( Some may write him off as a basic bootlicker, but there's something to considered in the defense of people who tend to be more deferential. Daon's only as clueless as he is because he's as attractive as he is. He really doesn't seek or yearn for attention, people just give it to him and he doesn't want to be on anyone's bad side. I think his lack of interest it only comes off in a mysterious or "mixed message" kind of way to Sohee because her own personality is so dominant. So far, Daon acquiesces to her, but really doesn't try to deceive her. Another tragic thing about him is that he's so good at being nice to everyone that when he's actually trying to be *extra* nice to the person that he likes, the person can't even realize it. T_T If Taekyung ends up with Shinwoo, my heart would be completely at ease if Sohee somehow ends up with Sinwoo. Something about him being silly to try and cheer her up while looking for his phone just got me wanting to ship them.

Aesthetically, I wouldn't have put these two actors together, but somehow, it's working out for me. Also, we know *how* Sun grew up, but would like to have known *where* he grew up. He was adopted by Sky's dad, so did he grow up in the care of the bodyguard who trained him or??

Same here.

I'm just commenting to say I love your name. lol

I wonder if it's because Tae's very measured about having friends. He wants to have friends and express himself more, but he's not sure who he's ready to do that with. He seems like he's getting ready to do that with Daon, but we also see that he's apprehensive since Daon is already everyone else's friend and too eagerly friendly. He obviously wants something to do with Shin Woo, but Shin Woo doesn't want anything to do with him rn (on the surface anyway). Despite being the main character, so far we've gotten to know the others through him, instead of more about Tae himself. I don't think they'll that up though.

Also, I don't really see him as being only being awkward. He's observant, curious, direct, and apparently brave enough to tell a group of obviously aggressive guys to shove it.

As of right now, I'd like him to end up with Da On too, but I'm almost positive that's not meant to happen because if it were, it would pretty much negate the need for Shin Woo's character altogether.

This isn't fair. You had the capacity to see the very faint glimmer of quality in a show like The Cupid Coach, which was categorically bad in basically every respect, but you can see any substantial appeal to this show? Really? lol I'm not going to defend how great it is yet because I think it's still getting set up and my opinion of this set up is that it's taking too damn long, but I really think your evaluation of Taekyung is too harsh too soon.

I liked it, but kinda wanted a little more to happen this third episode. I don't think we needed that much time with the date and showing So Hee's character. We get it. She's the jealous, spiteful girl character. Back to Taekyung and more importantly: Shin Woo, please!

Really only here for MarkKit.

Soo this show is only being made to give YinWar more screen time? Ok. That's reason enough for me. lol

And it's really only like three people causing all of it. The real problem is: they're in the comment section of literally every single BL show. lol

Weird, but I got the eerie feeling this series was somewhat doomed as soon as I finished the trailer. I don't why. However, I hope that the recent news isn't the final nail in the coffin. So many of us are so looking forward to this series. The storyline, the cast, the production quality, the nuance. It's too fresh and exciting to have all been for naught.

Hm. HIStory 4 has a list of issues of which “I’m only gay for you” is firmly at the bottom, but I get you. As for Thai BLs, I think recently, for the most part, either the sexual identity bit is largely unmentioned and we’re just made to understand the characters like boys (even if they’d previously been involved with girls).

Agree, but while there are quite a few BLs that go the “I’m just gay for you” route, I feel like for the past two years now, we’ve been blessed to not have to go through that with most BLs.

I'm not even up to date (just finished ep. 8), but I think by the time it's all said and done, Nuea's gonna still be my favorite character too. It's the sass and the clothes.

I like it because I actually find it funny. Taekyung's internal dialogue and basically anything Daon (edit: Siwoon) says. There isn't chemistry now, but that doesn't mean there won't be later. 14 episodes left to go, but admittedly it'd be nice to see some chemistry amidst the 'tension' they have right now. Less importantly, I do sometimes like watching actors with angelically clear, pristine skin and generally pretty faces from time to time. It's very easy for that aspect to become very boring, but for now, I do like that.

To me, it doesn't seem like anyone's really vying to be his friend that much. The homeroom teacher seems to somewhat identify with him and wants him to be more social/accepted. Daon lights up a room and is friendly to everyone. I think the popular boy may actually have a crush on Taekyung, which is why he says his best friend must be him. I could be wrong about that though. Everyone else at the school seems to either be indifferent toward him or outright avoiding him.

And I'm pretty flabbergasted by this rating as well.

Exactly. Same energy. lol
