Yeah, I really love how Earth/Phupha is so bold with his flirting. Makes me gush so much. lol

The pinky finger touch under the covers was the sweetest little cherry on top of this last episode. Phupha is such a cute little flirt.

So, I just went back to check the first 2gether trailer and yeah Win was definitely bigger and his character seemed a little more...tough? Also, that shadow of a mustache he had...no. lol

This is, before anything else, a historical depiction based on real-life people. I don't know how much you've read about the history of homosexuals, particularly in upper-class Asia around this time, but I assure you....truth is stranger than fiction.
So, I don't think it's detrimental because it's not predicated on anything that applies to our modern times.

Heterosexuality and homosexuality are irrelevant to the plot itself except for as it pertains to the king only. From what we see in the movie, it can't be said definitively what Hong Rim's sexuality is...in spite of the fact of everyone saying "the servant wasn't gay". Just because the king can't get it up for a woman doesn't mean every gay guy is like that, but I digress. No one's sexual preference is of any consequence here.
It's a story of lovers scorned, but in spite of the queen and Hong Rim having a fling, I don't think it could said they 'fell in love' so easily.

Nothing really happened this episode, but I have nothing else to do and I still think the story could take a nice turn next episode, so I'm gonna stick around. I did enjoy the scenery in Chiang Mai, though. Thailand is a really gorgeous country.

I've been thinking about that the whole time. lol

He also has the power to disappear and reappear in another location at will, but he hasn't done that since the first episode.

I don't agree that it's been normalized at least as far as the real-world is concerned. No one wants to fight with with their love interest 24/7. This isn't normal, but it's been par for the course for BLs for literal decades. Why is it romanticised? Because people find it entertaining and that's not right, but here we are.

I'm actually super behind and I just saw Love Sick last year and I'm watching Love Sick 2 rn, but I'm on like ep 14 and I thought I was able to recognize the baby version of everyone, but then I see Gameplay's name in the cast list and I'm like "Wait, what?" Did I see him already and I just didn't recognize him??? lol But thank you so much. I'll look out for him.

I don't really get around to seeing very many BTS, but I just randomly clicked on this one on YT and was pleasantly surprised. What impresses me the most is the hardship they went through by filming this out in the middle of nowhere and in the cold too. The conditions that the characters live in in the village are very much the same as how the cast and crew lived during filming.

I didn't know I needed this, but I did. I wish there were more of these types of films. We need more GL.

Is this worth the watch if I'm only watching for Max/gay stuff? lol

Be patient though. It starts a little slow, as it was originally meant to be an advertisement for a supermarket, but it gets better as it goes. Episodes are pretty short too.

If you love music and vocal/guitar-playing raw, you should watch Ingredients. It's about a chef and a musician who fall in love. The actors are chef/musician IRL too. ^_^

Lol not likely

I think the Hyun Jin's acting fit the role he was going for. Sometimes it felt a *little* stiff, but only sometimes. I really loved the concept of this story. It was SO cool, but as we always say with Korean BL: too bad it was so short. Except in this case, it really sucks that it was so short because the concept was so good and really could have been well-explored.

Ah ok. That makes sense then.

Go check him out in Love Sick 2 ep 10. It was filmed in 2015, making him 25 years old at the time, but he looks younger than other guys in the cast and the average age for all the other guys at that time was like 18. This man is damn vampire. lol

It says he was in Love Sick 2, but I don't see him? Which episode is he in? Is he in the band?
