lol.. did you not see the pilot of only friends dream on? Director said, they said cut 4 times and yet Joss went…
Yes.. they have.. and they are heterosexual..
and watch their interviews and exactly what they say... they are very clear about acting being acting and their personal life being straight life (it is not agency because these are old interviews as well)
by the way, fans need to listen.. i also saw an interview with Gemini telling fans that him and forth are just friends and if they want romantic stuff then they should check other pairs but not them.. and he has talked about marriage.. STRAIGHT
It was indeed a dream. You can see it bc of the whole scene aura and Tonkla's bed is empty
So, the bench talk is important because that is the 1st time Mark feels "feelings" and a wish to "live"..
In that scene, Tong talks about his past - parents/mother and Mark then tells Tong about his death... the point was how he was so cold and felt nothing when dad died but tong made him feel things for tong, for the kids.. wanting to be within human company which Mark has been running away from
This scene is supposed to be powerful because this si where Mark feels that he wants to live, and his growing feelings for Tong because tong is the one who has reignited this will to live... and later on Tong is extremely angry and asks Mark to leave.. so that's why Mark agrees to leave..
Funny, I had no hopes on Joss being able to kiss onscreen. I wanted to be sure he could work on camera so I saw…

I think in general lakorns or mainstream BG/ even GMM BG rarely have good , deep kisses.. i guess straight men are more comfortable with straight men because it is a bro thing and less awkward.. and women probably comfortable with women... BG = opp. genders colliding
Anyhow, based on interviews it seems Gawin is the shy one compared to Joss

Yes 1st ep was clear.. but post that nada.. frankly ep 3 fell flat for me emotionally... it was like director is trying to rush through scenes and cover key scenarios from the novel.. so it felt that actors were also just saying their dialogues and moving on...
E.g. gym scene.. fell flat.. i didn't feel the rejected feeling that Gawin should have felt and hence upset and leaves... the intensity of how much Mark was suffering just didn't land (mostly because i felt scene was rushed)
The whole Gawin's feelings for Mark leading to the dream... again came out of nowhere.. did not land emotionally..

so , here's a thing.. in the interview earlier this week.. Gawin very shyly said this scene is the 1st time ... he was too shy to say so Joss completed it for him saying this is the 1st time they kiss
It didn't seem like they were talking about acting queue... but for the characters..
Let's see... ideally as per novel flow this should be a dream sequence to tell us that gawin has also fallen for Mark.. but somehow this kiss or this episode did not land very well emotionally... everything was rushed.. on Mark's side and progression of his feelings.. but gawin's progression was worse because it simply did not come across on the screen
It wasn't in the novel so can't say but I think it was real
Ya , aware it wasn't in the novel.. but i thought they ommitted quite a few things from the novel this time -
the ignoring Mark does for DAYS after the gym... and then back in school.. we are shown that Tong is not sleeping well for days and missed Mark because he got used to living in his company...
so, had they shown all of that, i would have said it was a dream
But since they haven't shown that.. it could very well be Mark had a very long night trying to figure out his own feelings
Also preview... i was expecting it in ep 5.. so Yay!!! 1 episode earlier

Also, jojo is the only one who pushes boundaries somewhat..
this show is new director in GMM and Aof.. and then Gawin himself.. i don't think we will get anything beyond what gmm usually serves
E.g. gym scene.. fell flat.. i didn't feel the rejected feeling that Gawin should have felt and hence upset and leaves... the intensity of how much Mark was suffering just didn't land (mostly because i felt scene was rushed)
The whole Gawin's feelings for Mark leading to the dream... again came out of nowhere.. did not land emotionally..
Gawin's orphanage breakdown.. again rushed
All ingredients were there BUT SUPER RUSHED
