I find the main couple cringey, but I'll be sticking around for Kom and Baiboon.

I just watched another episode with this mindset and it made it far more tolerable. If they hadn't tried to make this so serious it could have been quite good.

Still working my way through this but the one thing that makes any of these 'mafia' series hard to take is that they have actors who wouldn't look out of place in a boyband and yet we're supposed to believe they are hardened criminals. I doubt they would break a sweat, let alone someone's kneecaps.

That's good to know. Despite its obvious flaws, at least it's different so that's why I'll probably stick with it.

I'm way behind in this and only just watched the second episode. It's still pretty cringe, but the second episode was slightly better than the first. I'm still a bit confused AF with some of what's going on, but the slight awfulness of it keeps me watching.

WTAF? Why did Mek look like Kim told him to eat his own excrement instead saying he liked him? I'm sure it'll be explained, but why are they all sweet with one another and then when one of them actually says the bleeding obvious it causes a reaction like that? I suppose they have another 6 episode to fill and they are going to fill it with nonsense.

I think a big problem is that they brought them together too soon, so now that they are together they need to throw stupid obstacles in the way. I always hate when they resort to unnecessary conflict.

I could *somewhat* understand Kim's reaction if he found Mek and Pam having an intimate dinner, but his friggin' sister was at the table as well. Mek had just tended to him while he was sick, but instead of any degree of logic he jumps to ridiculous conclusions. I completely understand this is a series, so it's not going to be 100% realistic, but if I was interested in someone and they made irrational assumptions, as characters frequently do in these series, I could not be bothered pursuing a relationship with them.

I don't hate this, but I really don't know what I'm watching when I'm watching it. There's really nothing that sets this apart and it just feels like they are ticking off the boxes. The premise was pretty thin and lead to the couple getting together rather quickly, so the rest of the series is mostly filler. It wasn't like I was looking forward to this or had any expectations, so it's not much of a loss.

My thoughts exactly. It's lucky I have two fists so I can punch both the chief and Sincere in the face at the same time.

I think it was Ugly Duckling or Room Alone where I first fell in love with Mek. I really should make more of an effort to remember where I first saw my future husband. 😍

Spot on. The original preview had me really looking forward to this, but the disappointment of SIMM set my expectations to zero. It was better than SIMM, but overall pretty forgettable.

The lead up to the ending was just dumb. In this day and age it is soooooo easy to track down people if you really want to. If they hadn't already added one another on some sort of social platform I'd be most surprised.

The chief not telling Fah which hospital Prince was in sent my rage off the charts. Oh, thanks for helping my sick villagers, but you can get stuffed when you want to know which hospital Prince is in because Sincere, of all people, asked me not to tell you. 😤

Although this was not as good as I was hoping, it was better than SIMM, but ultimately I'm glad it's over. The last two episodes were... hmm... not great. The let's throw a spanner in the works at the last minute but give you a happy ending trope is completely worn out. Overall I didn't hate it, but this was definitely in the miss rather than the hit category.

Although I have liked Aun in other series, he certainly gave Sincere the most punchable face in this. It infuriated me no end that with Prince on death's door, Sincere and Fah are having a dick measuring contest over who cares about him more. Of equal prickishness is the village chief, who's off gallivanting on "errands" whilst the villagers are sick. Then to cement his arseholedness, when Fah asks which hospital Prince is in, he won't tell him because the see you next Tuesday he doesn't know from a bar of soap has told him not to tell him. What a slap in the face! Also, I have never forgiven him for slaughtering the pig.

Anyway, will I be watching the special episode? Absolutely not.

I've never once rated a series on here because the ratings mean nothing. I've watched series that I've thought were total garbage and seen them rated 8 and I've also watched series that I've thought were amazing and yet they still end up with an 8.

It's not really necessary to watch SIMM. There is some minor overlap, but for the most part you won't have missed anything crucial if you only watch SIYH.

I was going to say you must have an interesting social life. 😝

For me it's the fact that they have zero chemistry and their scenes just feel shoehorned in to *remind* you that the series are connected. I definitely didn't go into analysing the lyrics of the song, which I didn't even know, but even that can't make me put up with Dao's appearance in SIYH. But as always, people like/dislike series for a whole range of reasons and I'm totally okay with it.

It completely takes me out of it. At least when Fah was calling him you could somewhat justify the interminable scene with Dao and Kluen that followed, but showing Dao receiving the obligatory BL sponge bath and being fed porridge or whatever felt totally forced.

The fact that I actively dislike his character shows he's doing a good job. But that middle parting of his hair needs to go. Does absolutely nothing for him.
