Have you ever seen interviews with Bible in English? There's a very long one with a Thai interviewer who is pretty fluent, and it was just so fascinating. Bible is a very intelligent, very thoughtful person, and I would give my left arm to have dinner with him and listen to him. I'll try to find the link to it!
A lot of good questions! Also, Aob actually works in the Harvey Hotel or what?
Ha! I meant he gets the enemies in a vulnerable position by going to have sex with them...and then he kills them. 😂 But no, I don't think Aob is secretly a mob assassin...but who knows??
I agree that I don't want Aob to be part of Lee's gang, so I hope Puen's good heart can save him!
We are not fair here on Aob, how can we tell him what to be? if he wants to be a prostitute and a gang member, it's his right! 😆 // LOL! Very true!
A lot of good questions! Also, Aob actually works in the Harvey Hotel or what?
I don't think he was lying about it (not sure why he would) and I'd gotten the idea that he'd been on his own since he was 18 but not necessarily working at Playboyy. He said he'd "done everything" and then when his sugar daddy had him start at Playboyy, he liked it and stayed, so I'd put that in his early 20s, maybe?
A lot of good questions! Also, Aob actually works in the Harvey Hotel or what?
LOL! I'll do the difficult work for both of us. 😅
Yeah, honestly, all this stuff about Aob and Lee is really out of nowhere to me. I mean, they *could* have set this up by giving us little hints in the previous 9 eps, like Aob can't come to work one day and lies about why not, or he acts suspicious about something, or we see him taking phone calls or receiving texts that he doesn't explain...but noooooooo, they just sprung it on us now. If he's a gang member, makes him a gang member, but if he's a prostitute, then let him stay a prostitute.
But ooh, what if he's like a secret agent gang member prostitute who assassinates enemies by getting them to have sex with him? 🤣
A lot of good questions! Also, Aob actually works in the Harvey Hotel or what?
Yes! That's why I did my rewatch this morning, to get all the details straight! 😄
That's why I questioned if Aob is his main employee, but if you watch the teaser for ep11, you'll see why I called him that. However, we know Lee was out of town since the start of the series, right? Maybe when he's not in Bangkok, Aob doesn't have to be with him and concentrates on being a prostitute. 😂 Or maybe he works at Playboyy at night and for Lee during the day, never sleeping. 😂
Thanks! I hadn't run across this video!Ah, I came across a more recent video with the same host, so I guess they…
Yeah, the other one, which I only watched parts of, was one of those where the guys call their unsuspecting "partners" and ask/say unexpected things to them to get a reaction out of them. I've seen this before (like My Boys Call Me) and while it can be funny, I find the discomfort somewhat off-putting.
Having said that, it *can* be done really well, and I thought the ep of My Boys Call Me with GemFourth doing something similar was HILARIOUS, like tears were coming down my face I was laughing so hard. The game there was that they had to try to get the person they were calling to use a particular phrase so were saying crazy, leading things to the friends/former costars they called. Fourth called Mark and it was one of the funniest things I've seen. 😂
A lot of good questions! Also, Aob actually works in the Harvey Hotel or what?
Oh, we know Aob works for Mr. Lee. At the beginning of this ep, Aob is the one who texted Soong to say that "his boss" is okay with him and to enjoy his new job, and then later we see Soong working for Lee. I don't know if Lee owns the hotel but I wouldn't be surprised!
And yes, I assumed that Aob, as Mr. Lee's main employee (?), was the one who'd told Auntie both not to say anything about the CCTV footage but also to tell him if anyone came asking about it.
I think First didn't care who it was at all. Just that they arranged for what ever the client wished to happen.…
LOL! So it's my fault for thinking too much about it. 😂
And I would mostly agree with you IF the scene had happened at Playboyy, but it was at the Harvey Hotel so not sure when/how the other employees got there.
But yes, I'm definitely overthinking it and I need to remember to set aside my expectation for realism when I start watching a Playboyy ep. 😄😄
And yes, love the idea that all of the writers of Playboyy use the same safe word. 😉
A lot of good questions! Also, Aob actually works in the Harvey Hotel or what?
Oh, I assumed that after the group sex party whatever, where people were wearing masks, and/or after Nont/the boys/the police started investigating, Aob told the staff of the hotel not to say anything, like he went back specifically. Then again, maybe Mr. Lee often works out of the hotel? He's been out of town until just now so not sure where he usually hangs out.
A lot of good questions! Also, Aob actually works in the Harvey Hotel or what?
Hmm, I don't think so. He's obviously been there before and that's how he knows the Auntie at the front desk, but I didn't get the idea he worked there too.

Lol! I do always think it's funny when we see them wearing stuff like that, but American brands and goods are popular in many parts of the world, so why would Thailand be any different? 😄

Hmm, I guess, though tbh not sure how some random English thrown in affects how most English-speaking viewers feel about a series. I mean, I love series that have zero English and feel that sticking it in oddly takes away from the flow of a scene, so kind of thinking that if they do it poorly it'll backfire.
And probably another type of food is going to be ruined for us. They already ruined popcorn, sausage, cheese,…
I hope you're right! But we know that, if we assume Lee is Aob's ex-SD, he was in love with him, so will that influence him, or will Puen's love change him for the better?
Since I'm thinking about it, what was the sequence of events when Aob and First met up at the Harvey Hotel for their BDSM session? Clearly Aob wanted to set up a situation where he would be able to punish First for what he'd done to Puen and the other Playboyys he'd abused...but *how* did he set this up? Posted on a BDSM message board that he was available and got lucky that First engaged his services? Or was Aob not even posing as a prostitute?
And how did the timing work at the hotel? Aob is in the room and First arrives second...but is immediately blindfolded/pillowcased when he gets to the room and then Aob uses the rope on him? It isn't making a ton of sense to me.
And despite having been to Playboyy at least THREE times (once to talk to Prom, once to abuse the rando employee, and a third time to abuse Puen), First never saw Aob in person or even his photo as an option to select? Because he didn't recognize Aob in the room.
ETA: I've clearly thought way too much about this.

Right, which is why I'd originally thought that the reason so many SoongFirst scenes had English in them was because of Jack, like maybe his English was better than his Thai, but now that we got First using English with the fellow students and with Aob, I wonder if it's because of Chat's language skills. Then again, with this series, who the hell knows? 😂
And probably another type of food is going to be ruined for us. They already ruined popcorn, sausage, cheese,…
I agree but maybe First and Soong will end up back together because they both like S/M sex?
I feel like Jump hasn't been into Porsche since he started getting blackmailed (what a surprise), even though at the beginning he was weirdly obsessing over Porsche. Actually, it's kind of the same with Keen: he was obsessing over Captain (dude, you had Puen RIGHT THERE), then they hooked up, and then Captain screwed him over big-time.
I really wanted to put AobPuen on the Together list BUT if Aob turns out to be a baddie, I want good boy Puen to run far away instead of turning bad...OR convince Aob to give up the thug life and be with him instead. 😍
I agree that I don't want Aob to be part of Lee's gang, so I hope Puen's good heart can save him!
