This is giving me Memoir of Rati vibes. That is great acting/chemistry, good direction/production, but somehow not very interesting to watch? This kind of subject matter has been done a lot previously and in a more intense way.
However, the last 10 minutes of episode two was great, I hope the rest of the series is like that and not too inert. The preview looks good.
Fourth has really great screen presence. Gemini is good too. I hope Bright has juicy scenes.
As usual, people in this comment section are ascribing morals to fictional characters and forming judgments and opinions accordingly. Fictional characters are just that, fictional! They are not real and their morals don’t matter, not really. That’s why a villain can be a despicable character yet fun to watch or read about. Similarly, a “good” character can be dull as ditchwater or annoying to watch/read, not because they are bad morally, but because that’s how they are portrayed.
Lu Feng is a terrible character in terms of morals, but the younger Yichen is a terrible character in terms of entertainment. It has nothing to do with their actions, it’s to do with their characterisation and how they drive the plot. The second couple is annoying and useless to me.
Anyway, this show overall is a disappointment. I love a good toxic romance, but this series is weak 🫤
i understand Kanit's bf is cheating on him, but we start ep2 and Kanit isnt sure of the cheating but he already…
The eating food thing was bachelorette party shenanigans though lol, a lot of things go on in those parties. Is that fine and dandy? Maybe not to everyone (wouldnt be fine with me either lmao) but mileages vary and it’s not intentional cheating.
So many good Thai bls airing right now! This and A Dog and a Plane are my favourites. When Oranges Fall is great too! Havent started Ticket to Heaven yet.
I like a good toxic romance( in fiction) as much as the next person, but this show is just not very well made 🫤
Yichen is cute to look at but the actor is bad at acting, he just stares as if he is half asleep most of the time. Lu Feng loses his aura when he shouts like a lunatic. Zhou Lan is another irritating character like the brother …
There’s some entertainment quotient in this series, it’s not all bad, but it could’ve been so much better. The older show is so cringe but it actually did several things right.
People? 🤣 literally only one other comment here saying that. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and…
And like I said, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but the general consensus on the series is overwhelmingly positive. No need to get upset at someone stating facts 🤷♀️
Ratings at MDL when barely two episodes are out are always extremely random, they have no significance.
For people calling it mid, I kind of agree. It has some good moments, but the plot and characters are pretty average.…
People? 🤣 literally only one other comment here saying that. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and everyone has their own taste, but the general reception for this series is overwhelmingly positive in all platforms right now.
Serious question: Why is Lion not breaking up with Kanit? He doesn't want to spend their anniversary with him,…
Kanit is pretty and sophisticated, good for an official boyfriend title. Narcissists like Lion like power over people, he doesnt want to set Kanit free for other people (like Toto) to swoop in.
This might be the point in time where there are the most number of BLs airing at the same time (CBLs, JBLs, a couple of KBLs, a lot of high profile Thai BLs) but this series is honestly yhe best of them all 🤷♀️
The banter, the situational humor, the fast pacing and plotline, the robust acting and characterisation (including supporting characters), and the amazing chemistry!!!
TayNew seriously have the best track record among all BL couples. Not a single dud show in their couple filmography.
If you have an issue with him, take it to his personal page and vent about it there—I couldn't care less. This…
Hey, since you have so much time to fight with people on this page, I’m assuming you must have more than enough time to talk about all the amazing activism you have done for LGBT people and child SA survivors, right? Since your comment is so sanctimonious, I assume you are actively working in your daily life for the betterment of people, instead of trolling actors online? Since you have so much time judging the content of celeb actions and apologies, why don’t you tell the rest of us how much activism you’ve done?
No one is talking about that issue at all now, it is not a topic of conversation on BL twitter at all. And like…
The comment section on MDL is because of wishful thinking of a couple of people who want to drag this unrelated issue here. This issue is not talked about any where at all right now, not on Twitter, not on tiktok, YT, Tumblr, reddit or any of the forums where there is BL discourse. The commentary everywhere is overwhelmingly positive. It’s only a few people speculating here because MDL has random ratings for new shows or because of stan wars. Face reality, your speculation has no grounds.
I don’t need to defend a thoughtless mistake which could have happened to anyone, what I am doing here is clapping back at trolls who are trivialising an extremely serious matter by dragging it here in unrelated forums where it definitely does not belong. This is a case of familial child SA, it does NOT belong on an entertainment forum which is meant for discussing the series. People who use this serious issue for stan wars are despicable scum.
Mass downvotes in MDL don’t matter an iota. If the series is good, it will be organically successful. BL audience is a massive demographic, a few people on MDL are negligible.
The dialogue in this show is top notch. The banter is humorous and actually matches the characterisation. Plus, it sounds like something people would say in daily life, not like some bookish or theatrical language.
Good job by the scriptwriters. I can only hope they can keep up this level of pacing and writing.
Looks like the rating got affected because of someone 🤷♀️ I feel bad for the rest of the cast and crew.
No one is talking about that issue at all now, it is not a topic of conversation on BL twitter at all. And like the victim himself said, the celebs and the wife are the least important components of the entire issue, the issue is the actual perpetrator and his family.
Your speculation is unfounded. Many ratings on MDL start out randomly like this one.
Not some people acting like "poor Tay" like he is getting targeted by people he is a victim, like they…
Quickly, name five things you’ve done to support LGBT people and childhood SA survivors. If you’ve got enough time to comment about such heavy topics on a completely unrelated page, I’m sure you must spend be spending the majority of your time doing actually useful things, correct? Otherwise you just come across as trivialising such serious issues by dragging a random celeb for something completely unrelated to him or this show. That’s pathetic and miserable behavior.
People don't rate the series, they rate their favorites. And those two aren't the hottest thing at the moment.…
That’s natural, of course newer couple in general would be more hyped than a 10 year old couple. Having said that, TayNew are 100% more popular and hyped than FirstKhaotang and even JoongDunk domestically. TayNew have a LOT more events/endorsements/fanmeets/concerts etc than FK. In Thailand and countries like Japan/China, they are also more popular than JD, TayNew get more events there.
Gem4th , pondphuwin are two of the top couples in whole of BL world, hardly anyone else is on their level. For a decade old couple, TayNew are not doing too shabbily at all, they are actually relevant. This series also trended quite well, especially given it’s not even available to watch in many countries, given viki is delayed viewing.

The entire cast is cute af. Seeing Justin for the first time and he has great potential.
