Thanks for this series, because I'm really suffering this year from the almost completely missing Korean BLs, especially if we compare it to last year when so many came out. It's even harder for me personally, because Korean BLs are my favourites. I don't get what happened this year, they started with a bang (the amazing Love for Love's Sake) and then almost nothing.

Enjoyed this one very much, even though it was simple. The actors were good and it kept me interested from the beginning to the end.

As someone who has read the book, I will say just this - most people would've complained about a too long, slow and boring build-up between the mains if they hadn't made some considerable changes in their SL and relationship dynamics. The side couple would've been barely there. The ridiculous competition (which is ridiculous, I give you this, and if you look at the comments after episode 1/2, you will see that about everyone agrees on this) is one of the things taken from the book they didn't change (or barely changed).

I agree that telling Oab was not wrong, but I the reasoning behind it was, no matter how you look at it. The reason Kluea told Oab was not because he cared about the restaurant (even if it is technically true), but because he knows very well that Oab will reject Plawan when he finds out about it, no matter what he tells himself and how he's justifying it. Think about it like this: if Plawan had accepted Kluea and had decided to date him instead of Oab, would've Kluea done the same thing? I think not, or at least, he would've gone to Plawan first and talked to him about it before going to Oab.

Mind you, I don't mind that Oab found out, because Plawan clearly intended to hide it from him forever, which was also wrong and wouldn't have gone well. I just think it's ridiculous from Kluea to claim he did what he did because he cares about the restaurant first and foremost.

Thank you so much! You're absolutely right, Kluea heard Plawan say to JJ at the end of the phone conversation that he was deliberately going to lose in order to stay with Oab. I forgot about it. Argh, Kluea, I felt so sorry for your when you were crying in that empty room while Plawan and Oab were together, and then you have to do something like that. Well, at least it shows that Kluea doesn't really love Plawan and Plawan chose the right person. :)

If Great is really dead, then what about thas woman, who is exactly like him? I think that both of them have had a near-death experience to make them able to see the furture for the 4 minutes, if only to change it for themselves, no matter whether the changed future is only in their minds or not.

I agree, it would be very interesting if the changed reality is only in Great's mind, and the "real" timeline is the one in which he hit that woman with the car and drove away, did not save Dome or the girl from Title, never met Tyme, because didn't bother to stop or apologize when he bumped into him, and didn't save Nan either. I wonder where Great would've been now if he hadn't changed the future for himself to save so many people and meet someone he's obviously fallen for.

Absolutely, there could be more than just two, because he keeps changing the future in every episode at least once.

OK, it seems that we're in two different realities that are running at the same time, although I don't get how and why some characters are living the one reality and others the second, the changed one. Great can see the future and change his actions in the last 4 minutes, but the reality before him changing the future seems to continue to run simultaneously with the changed one, i.e. Dome is dead in the first reality but alive in the other one. Also, at the beginning of the episode, Win and the other policeman were talking about a second body they found killed exactly like the first one, with the stone. This could very well be Title, who's disappeared since episode 2. In reality Nr. 1 (the unchanged by Great one) Title was the one to kill Dome with the stone and I think that the person we saw Tonkla killing the same way was Title and not Dome, i.e. the second body found on the scene.

I don't know if I'm making any sense, but right now, I'm convinced that Tonkla did not kill Dome, but someone else, even if it's not Title.

Depends on your country. If you're in Europe, it's on YouTube, but the cut version.

So Plawan is just planning to lose the competition, give the money back to Methas and never tell Oab about it at all? Boy, this is not a good plan, he would find out someday either way, even if Kluea hadn't told him.

Is Kluea trying to throw the competition like Plawan? I didn't get the ending with the long beans, what is he trying to do?

I can't take Methas seriously, sorry. He was meant to look threatening when he went to the restaurant, but that laugh was anything but.

Oab and Plawan were serving with the kisses, as always.

A sweet love story between two nice guys that develops smoothly and naturally, at least for now. Thank you, I needed something like that amidst the toxic, problematic, dramatic or complicated relationships we've been getting in many BL series lately.

I only feel bad for the poor turtle. That terrarium is way too small for it and every time they show the poor thing, it's trying to escape.

Absolutely! While I was watching I was actually thinking that if I worked like that, I would've been out of a job for a long time.

If someone had told me that I'd enjoy the Bamhee/Tae/Judy triangle the most in this series, I would've declared them insane, but well, here we are. I'm really invested in this SL and the best thing is that I have no idea how it will end and I can understand all three of them, even Judy,

I can't get over how bad Ryan is at his job. He's been there for a long time and yet he daydreams so much he prints about 100 copies instead of the two he had to and can't get a grip on himself, dozes over and throws tantrums because he has a crush on his boss and is jealous. Seriously, I give him some credit for being young, but this is ridiculous. Jane was absolutely right to tell him off.

I agree about Benz, he looks too young to be Methas and I can't take him seriously as the ruthless businessman who sees nothing but money. In the book, Methas is about 40 years old. I know they've changed many things from the book, but I still think Sailub (from this cast) would've made a more convincing Methas.

I so can't wait for this!

After Cherry Magic, TayNew have turned into a favourite duo for me and I don't care about whether they will be playing a couple or not, I just enjoy seeing them together.

Also, ghosts!!! Thumbs up!

I'm really not sure how they are going to resolve everything in only 2 more episodes, unless it turns out Oab knows or at least strongly suspects that Plawan is being paid by Methas, so it won't take as long to forgive him.

But they really do have good chemistry, and I can't believe I'm saying it, because Sailub and Pon obviously do, too, they saved Pit Babe for me. :)

After this episode I think that if indeed Tonkla was the one who killed his brother, he did it without knowing what he was doing while being high or intoxated and totally out of it.

Sigh... I wanted the Tyme/Great kiss so much, why did they have to do that?

So, pretty much everyone was on point last week when they pointed out that Kluea was the one to call Oab's ex in order to get him away from Plawan and it worked. They've picked the actor very well, he has that innocent sweet look working for him, but underneath he knows what he wants and goes for it, whatever the costs. He doesn't look ruthless at all, but he is.

Although I know I'm the only one who thinks so, I'm going to say it - I'm team Oab all the way, but Pon and Aon also have good chemistry and I can totally see them as a couple in another series.

The ex-girlfriend is really annoying, but then again, so was Oab most of the time in this episode. I agree with everyone that Kluea is annoying, too, but I can't bring myself to dislike him. For some reason, I can sympathise with him, even though I don't agree with some of the things he does. The same goes for Plawan.

The best scenes in the episode for me were when JJ found out that Methas had bought the hospital and confronted him about it, and that sweet Oab/Plawan kiss.

The comments here make me go all O_O.

I said it after the first episode, and I'll repeat myself - this show is way better than I imagined it would be and if it stays that way, it might turn into a favourite of mine.

I can't wait to find out if Tonkla was the one who killed his brother or that was him in the future, eliminating the murderer the same way. JJay's role is such a contrast to the one he had in DFF and I love it!

Jet was playing a bully in DFF and here, he's updated to playing a bullying psychopath. Seriously, I fully expect him to kill someone for real, if he hasn't already.

Tyme was way too obvious about his pursuit of a very cautious-looking Great. :) I hope they'll keep this relationship dynamic in the next episode before moving to the next step, it's fun to watch.
