Only technically. There are other laws that effectively make it 18, especially if someone contests it. And why…
Yeah, when I saw that I was like WTF? The only thing I could think of was that they did that for the international audience.... Since as you say about age of consent is true to the best of my knowledge when I got curious about Thailand and researched it on the web. (https://www.ageofconsent.net/world/thailand) I think that compoundable offense means if they used force or coercion (but correct me if I'm wrong).
Too many people try to force their idea of morality on other cultures.
Personally, I get nervous with anyone who says they are 18 (or 17 which is the age of consent where I live) because in my experience they often lie about their age and I have no interest in risking criminal charges regardless of whether I could prove I was lied to or not.
Ken's earring comes and goes. In the first episode when he's with Shokun in the locker room, Ken has earrings…
After watching the 6 (cut) episodes I'm not sure that it was anything but some weird metaphor for Ken's state of mind. He's definitely shown to be suicidal at one point (holding the gun to his head in his mind)
I think it’s disrespectful for the police to comment on cause of death when they don’t even know. That is…
I agree, I wasn't one of his fans (didn't know anything about him really). But if the police did speculate on it, then it is highly irresponsible to make statements on something like that in the absence of facts or complete investigation.
Too many people make assumptions and then publish them as fact!
Binge watched the whole series last night. There are some stuff that make no sense (like most Thai series). I…
True, to some it seems young(to me as well), but we can't put our cultural values onto another culture. The age of consent in Thailand is 15 after all. (Not sure what they were referring to about 20 y/o for BDSM though. I know Matteo said his mother required him to be 20 before doing BDSM...) And in my experience, teens are always horny no matter what country they are in.
Yeah, I think there were too many characters for such a short series as well. I was a bit surprised about a high…
No, it looked like high school. I've noticed it's a common theme in some Thai BLs that some have their own condos. The reason is usually that their parents are sending them to Bangkok for school but actually live elsewhere in(or out of) the country. But obviously that's only for the wealthier group who have the money to do so.

It is a private school in the show I think. So that does not really mean anything. I've seen elementary schools that use the word 'college' in the name!
But going by the age of the actors it would be high school. (I know that the actors playing Burger and King are 17 and 16 respectively). The rest all seem to be 19+ except for the one playing Hida. (So basically all the ones doing sex scenes are 19+)
there were too many different characters popping left and right in this show but overall, it was good. loved the…

I was a bit surprised about a high school BDSM theme...wasn't so much into that honestly. Too much of a chance for the younger crowd to get into something w/o really knowing what's involved and getting hurt I think. (There are a lot of things to take into account when playing with BDSM! And you have to avoid psychos!)
And yeah, the actor playing King is cute(bit too young for my taste...but still cute).
isnt it uncharacteristical of him to just do it?? also 1-too short i wanted more!!!! 2-ONLY LOVE TRIANGLE ON A…
In real life there isn't always a villain. So yeah, it makes it difficult to cheer for only one side. A lot of time it's people screwing up in screwed up situations.
I just got around to watching it. It may not be Oscar worthy, but it's not as bad as some of these reviews seem to make it out to be. Someone mentioned lakorns, yes, lakorns are this bad (or worse actually). But this show delved into a lot of teen issues, being recorded/cyber bullying, sex(the most by far), etc...
After watching it, it may not be in my top 5 but it's by far not the worst I've ever watched. But I only saw the 'cut' version, so I don't know what was in the other scenes.
Yes, the actors were new, most of them have no other credits it seems. But they did a passable job (at least for this genre).
As for their age, aside from the actors playing Hida(17), Burger(17), and King(16) the rest are listed as 19+. (So basically all the ones doing sex scenes are 19+)
If it had a true fault, I think it may have been that it tried to cover too much. But it was still OK to pass the time.
they are from the same grouphow can they kiss😭😭please give full rating because they deserve
They don't deserve it though. If they didn't want to do BL (And I have NO idea if it was their decision or not), then they should NOT have taken the roles.
If the actors were truly the ones who weren't comfortable and couldn't commit to the subject matter they were…
I don't know if it was the actors, their managers, or the show creators. But it was a bad decision. Better to not do it at all if you aren't going to commit to doing it realistically (with at LEAST a real kiss). Doing it like they did just leaves a bad feeling towards the entire thing.

Given that, it was entertaining enough.
I preferred the Buger-King storyline though.
