Thoughts after the first two episodes

Filmed two years ago, I can’t believe we finally get to see this on air. Thoughts just from watching the first two episodes that aired.

So from the first two episodes, a lot didn’t happen. It was more setting up the rest of the show for me. I found some scenes hilarious, some cute, and some that seemed like they weren’t needed in my opinion.

As far as the language goes, I think The Koreans seemed more comfortable of course because it was produced by them and everyone spoke the language. I applaud Mew for trying something new and stepping outside his comfort zone. I was sure some people, who didn't know about the studio behind this, obviously would struggle and possibly have issues with the language switching. However, I think the drama explained it well in the first 2 episodes. People in multilingual homes would probably be able to relate to the fact that you can understand but not speak a language. So I think it's entirely plausible for Piuno to be able to do the same.

Also, this is the premise of all the shows this company has and will be releasing. Thai actors will be speaking in their language and Korean actors will be speaking in theirs. After doing some research, I saw that of the remaining films, Wuju Bakery was filmed last after and a new production team took over. So how they go about the language thing, we will just have to wait.

As far as the acting goes, I think everyone did a good job but it's the first 2 episodes and I think there is room for improvement overall. But I do want to address Mew's acting specifically. I’ve seen some of Mew's recent dramas and I can tell his acting has improved a lot since this was filmed before them. But I don’t think his acting was as bad as people making it out to be. Also, it’s clear some of you just have a bias to begin with when it comes to him.

Lastly, I wish the episodes were longer to be able to fit things in more smoothly and expand on things a little better.

Will be looking forward to seeing how this plays out over the next episodes to come.

Revised text:
I'm amazed that after two years, we finally get to see the show on air. Here are my thoughts on the first two episodes that have aired.

Not much happened in the first two episodes; they were mostly setting up the rest of the show. I found some scenes hilarious, some cute, but some seemed unnecessary in my opinion.

Regarding the language, Korean actors seemed more comfortable, as the show was produced by them and everyone spoke the language. I applaud Mew for stepping outside his comfort zone and trying something new. Although some people may struggle with the language switching, I think the drama explained it well in the first two episodes. People in multilingual households can relate to understanding a language without being able to speak it. Therefore, it's plausible for Piuno to be able to do the same.

This is the premise of all the shows this company has and will release. Thai actors will speak in their language, and Korean actors will speak in theirs. I researched and found that Wuju Bakery was filmed last, and a new production team took over. We'll have to wait to see how they handle the language issue.

Regarding acting, everyone did a good job, but there's room for improvement overall. I want to address Mew's acting specifically. I've seen some of his recent dramas and can tell his acting has improved since this show was filmed. However, I don't think his acting was as bad as some people are saying. It's clear from the comments, some may have a bias against him.

Lastly, I wish the episodes were longer to fit things in more smoothly and expand on things better.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the show plays out in the upcoming episodes.
