Although I'm liking this series, two things keep me from liking it more: 1) Subs are a week to two weeks behind, and 2) The storyline is starting to drag significantly. The producers of this series is taking the "cliff hanger" routine to an unnecessary extreme. I presume their thought is if you have a cliff hanger at the end of every ep, it'll make folks want to see it more. Actually, that's just the opposite, it make folks frustrated and want to see it less.

Wow! I think I understand. Thanks for sharing this.

Again, some good points, especially the point about the misunderstanding of actions of other cultures. I guess some of us have the misguided presumption that there are some things that "should be" universal, like rape and sexual violence, especially in an area of the world where lbgtq+ rights (as well as some human rights) are still trying to find their foothold.

More power to you Bro! I'm just smh over this mess. This series reeks with stupidity, "tropicity," toxicity and every other "icity" you can think of... LMFAO! But, I'm sure there are many out there that just luv this, I'm just NOT one of them! LOL!

Very good points. But, IMO, the same could be said about current BLs, such as Big Dragon, Kinn/Prosche, and least we not forget. Tharn/Type. KP and TT were extremely popular, had those themes and it appeared that many of the fans could've cared less about the sexual violence, rape, etc. and even promoted it as "normal." Interesting!

Oh! I missed that! I'll have rewatch it again.

I've rewatched the past (4) eps, and there nothing in the eps to indicate any significant time period has passed. In the novel it may be a longer time, but the series eps seem to span only a few days. Unless, your seeing something I don't.

Wow, Kawin and Pluem have only known each other a few days and already hooking-up (twice)! Interesting!

Good point. I would agree.

Interesting. I could easily agree with you on much of your synopsis. However, there is one area that I guess I shall simply have to agree to disagree. Culture/society notwithstanding, BL stories that center around rape, violence and possible Stockholm syndrome are extremely complex and often taboo. And, I'm not sure that one could have a "good debate" on the subject.

Agreed!

Interesting recitation! Unfortunately, you are probably about 98% correct. I would respectfully disagree with the last 2%, "their opinion means a g*ddamn thing." Actually, it "does," just not to you or I or anyone who thinks as we do, and that's still o.k.

Yes. Both are terrible. Yai attempted to do a bad thing and got caught. Mangkorn turned around and did a bad thing. @schur20r did not "judge" anyone, merely asked the question. Now, if just asking the question creates "judgement" then hmmm!

You're also right. But, we're in the minority.

Yep!

No, no, no! Talk trash! Because that's all it is! But even trash can be enjoyable every now and then. LMBO!

This series is just way too much for me. I'm going to pass. The rest of you enjoy the journey.

You're wasting your breath. It appears that the more sexually disturbing the BL is, the more folks seem to like it and even call it "good," and defend it by saying it's everyone's "preference." Unfortunately, they're correct. However, as for me, I'm passing it -- I've had enough of the coercive, drunk, possible rape story-lined BLs for this year. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem making the BLs a lot more mature (and even sexier). But, come on! Being mature and sexier doesn't have to always involve sexual coercion, being drugged for sex, rape, or other sexual violence. What's REALLY scary is the number of folks who actually think that kind of behavior is "romantic," "cute," or "good." Wow!

WOW! Thanks!

Hmmm! I'm intrigued by your cryptic comment. LOL OK. Can you reveal whether it's a student, staff (teacher) or "other"?
