Yes! I think someone with a natural poker face, conveying emotions in subtle ways, would work better with this…
Good for him: D I hope it's clear I don't think he's a bad actor, just not necessarily the best fit for this role. Sure, life would be much less fun if we all agreed with each other;)

But not being good at something is not the same as not even trying;p It'd just be more engaging and enjoyable for me, if the actor had a more inscrutable or enigmatic style, and a chance to pull it off, instead of failing so conspicuously. And I'm not so sure he was supposed to, otherwise why the need for tests or traps in the script... Of course, I don't know Gun's range as an actor and he may yet blow me away with his rebellious B persona. It also could've been the director's decision to have him look so openly scared or adorably lost 80% of the time to tug at our heartstrings: D Doesn't change the fact that it made this rather unlikely scenario even more of a stretch for me.

I love Gun, but if Black/White were played by other actor I feel like the story would work even better.
Yes! I think someone with a natural poker face, conveying emotions in subtle ways, would work better with this plot. Gun is like an open book. A scared sh1tless open book: D I was thinking from ep1 that no way they won't suspect him when the guy is practically oozing fear;)

I feel like the title of ep5 should be 'Do not attempt it at home kids';)) Cute n' creepy stalking, martial heroes style jumping with no run-up, and whatever classic horror that last scene came from... Is that drink they're advertising like red bull? giving people wings?:D W is starting to drive me a little crazy. Maybe he should feign a sprained ankle or an upset stomach, and take a minute to just think... Ah right, he doesn't have to worry about fooling them that much. Cause B hasn't TOLD anyone he's got a twin, and since they're the only two people in the world who know about it … oh wait;) This is getting so messy and I'm enjoying the hell out of it;)

If you're just here in the comment section to shit on this drama, just gtfo. If you don't like the show, cool.…
Urgh, seriously?! Why are there so many patronising comments in this thread... We are all bound by the same site TOS. As long as people comply with them, they can write whatever they want. I like the show, but if someone got disappointed by it, they have a right to vent here. You can discuss, block, ignore or report. But this ain't your private playground to be telling people to gtfo!

to watch now or to wait. Ugh such a difficult decision
It's really a question of preference. You have a show that weaves an erratic mystery with quite a few characters that look like they're hiding things. So you come up with theories, scenarios and questions. Then the new, very short (40+ min) episode finally airs and, not only doesn't answer any of those, but stirrs the action in a completely new direction, introducing even more suspicious people;)
Now, what do you do?
- get frustrated to death and throw your footwear at the screen?
- get excited that you have another full seven days to come up with even more questions, theories and scenarios?
There's your decision. Choose wisely: D

Title Not Me
The wait for ep5 is gonna kill me... I want to know the PLAN!! Is it gonna be gas grenades or yet unrevealed hacking skills? I thought their last 'venture' was the pinnacle of stupidity, but maybe Sean's idea will outmatch that achievement:D If they're going for legitimate biz, then they're playing with a lot of livelihoods. If the other kind, then they should read up on the term power vacuum first. Anyway, that must have been some vodka;p I do enjoy the rising tension between Sean and White a lot! I hope ep5 will be explosive in more ways than one:D

Noone but shady Tod seems to know what happened to B? I mean the guy was almost beaten to death. Shouldn't there…
I'm enjoying all of these as well. I don't mind loose threads when I'm watching sth light or fluffy. But the creators seem to want us to think about what we're watching, then they better come up with a plausible setup;)
I think most of us struggle with such things. When we stop, dictatorships are born. I have a very pragmatic attitude towards any kind of activism - a calculation of goal vs. risk/cost/effort. If the outcome isn't worth the risk, then it's not worth it. Burning down a house in the middle of a forest in any case sounds supremely moronic:D Definitely not worth risking their careers in law, which they could do more good with in a few years. They hinted that it was personal for B though, so maybe there's a juicy revenge plot in the background. I don't think these themes are rare in popular TV - at least where I live, just maybe in the romance genre;) Anyway, let's see where they take this series! I do hope for more good music...

Title Dear Tenant
Good premise, bad pacing. The first half was too slow to really engage me. When it finally got interesting - we got some answers and even more questions were raised (there was a pretty big revelation about the past just dropped there by the end, not to be explored) - the movie ended. I'd happily watch a re-edited version.

It's the soundtrack that makes this series for me. So good! But do you guys think White is actually fooling anyone?…
Noone but shady Tod seems to know what happened to B? I mean the guy was almost beaten to death. Shouldn't there be a police inquiry? In which case they'd go question the gang? Plus his mom's a judge? I also find it weird that the father didn't connect the dots when his healthy son suddenly collapsed. His reply about mom and B was also weird af. Well, I'm curious how they'll spin the story from this point. Hope they won't leave glaring plot holes...

It's the soundtrack that makes this series for me. So good! But do you guys think White is actually fooling anyone? Or do most of them know? To me, he looks same as both B and W, just wearing different clothes. From what everyone says, B seems reckless and fearless. But W looks scared half to death most of the time. Maybe they should've lengthened the preparation time so it doesn't seem that he just went there half-cocked, with little to no knowledge about his brother. At this point, I'm more intrigued by the real B:) Would love to see some clips from his past. Also was it ever explained why..

Save this one for a shitty day. Although it didn't suit my taste much, I think this type of heart-warming and uncomplicated short stories could be a good choice for when you're feeling low. These may be based on true events, but they're not the kind that go for your guts, rather rub a soothing balm on your aching bits;) - well maybe excluding ep4 that deals with loss...
The quality, style and structure is like a good commercial, so no surprises here.

Since you seem to be watching it right now, do you know the episode in which the parade happens with the female…
Yeah, that's earlier than I would've guessed too. With so many twists and new people showing up, it's hard to keep track of the sequence of events:) Loved those scenes btw! I would've traded some of the fight scenes in later eps for more parade and more parkour!

Sorry, no idea. I binged it pretty fast couple weeks back:) Did you try to Google it? Maybe someone wrote recaps...

Why doesn't thai production companies adapt such storylines?? They should adapt better bl novels. Not Chinese,…
Because too little money and too little audience. This is a costly production and 'bromance' adaptations are a very safe and profitable compromise allowing production companies to get money from both book lovers and mainstream audiences. Do you really think this kind of series would've been offered the same level of resources if they were uncensored? I don't see any other countries showering queer cinema with cash. Most of my favourite gay movies had a budget of USD 1-4M, meanwhile the dumbest action flicks get 5-10 times as much. Because they have a much wider audience.
I have special hate for how the censorship is stifling creativity and ruining dramas, but that's another topic.

This had the most interesting format among all the shows of this kind I've seen. Group B are all such colorful characters;) Loved them! Plus, my favourites got on the podium, so I'm pretty happy with this show:)
