@oddshare, thank you for spending the time to elaborate your thoughts on the series. This is the gem of a comment that I am excited to read. It's no wonder what little bit I learned from your profile that we must likely have learned to structure our movie/series reviews from college.

@xxenia95, thank you for details. I am watching this for the food presentations, so I'll be sure to stay away from the "uncut" version.

@DaniGwiz Thank you for the update on the latest DSM (re)classification. Only learned DSM-III in undergrad school back then.

@Frijoffred, thank you. Just the list I am looking so very long for. I'd like to add "United Win (2022)."

Thank you, all, for your interesting comments.

@justjacky I really value your elaborate post with details. I am trying to view situations from different cultural perspectives, and yours is interesting. Thanks.

@ariel alba Thank you so much for explaining why you like this in detail. I just wish more members do this instead of giving vague superlative words.

I also find it vague. I heard from the drama that he was offered to do cases together whenever opportunities come, not hired full-time. So from my perception, he's just wearing suits for cases as they come. Since the drama doesn't focus on him, it doesn't show where else he can live if not at Mao's and his family home.

(For me), I was expecting MCH to reunite with Xin Jia Liang in the end.

@Okaybabe, thanks for the response. I though it was on a comment thread. Yes, "running comments" are just pure reactions from the viewers without details. For me, I enjoy learning other people's take on issues that they like or dislike.

@Okaybabe Please share if the comments were from those of Chinese descent. I'd consider this character typical for Chinese descent parents, especially those of the old/older generation. Of course, my parents aren't that extreme.

Whoever tags "brothers' relationship", thank you. This and "gay ML" is the combo I am looking for like for "Love Proposal."

He can't be according to the story presented so far. Jong Mo has done a background check on him and should have recognized if Tae Oh's mother was his mistress.

@Ivy I also agree that unless one is an avid manga reader, he (or she) won't know that label. Also, I notice that many Korean and Japanese series are adaptations of mangas. I was using it to differentiate it from the BL genre, which most, if not all women audiences, know. And reading postings on this platform, I see a lot of members use manga labels to describe their opinions on series. "Bara" is not represented in this series (so far), but the comraderie between the MLs (and business elements in the story) interest me more than enough to continue watching.

@Ivy I know. It's rare to find Bara-themed series that can sustain commercially. Bromance is highly available but does not get labeled here much. My preference for these is because both have elements of (grounded) reality. So for example, I will settle for bromance,but definitely not BL. Thanks for checking. I was just making an analogy using these terms because it seems many members are familiar with them. (I don't like mangas either). :)

That's interesting.

I check the trailer and try 1-2 episodes to know this is what I enjoy. The genre tags helped a bit, but not tags because I am a fan of the bara or bromance genre. While this is not exactly it, the characters are so interesting that I am watching it.

Didn't know about the previous older versions with Por, but watched a bit with Tua's 1995 version. Impressed that Mew actually sang Thai Country genre in this series!

@Jida thanks for that.

good bromance (according to my criteria).
