The short answer is no. For the longer one I need to know: "How highly do you think of apples?"
I read it. And while it's an interesting point, I still don't find it an apropriate treatment.
For one, it's not really pracitical to carry a bunch of apples with him. He could just peel them beforehand and use the peels. Or use concentrated apple juice. Apple puree. Whatever the form. Other thing is, instead of apples, he could use just about anything serving the same purpose. Cocoa, tea, spinach, shallots... there are lot of sources and many of them are more practical than apples. The apple skin being a vasodilator comes from apple polyphenols (mainly quercetin) boosting nitric oxide levels (as far as I know, the exact mechanism isn't known). You can get quercetin supplements, no problem.
Secondly, it's also not exactly known how much of quercetin, in what concentration, and for how long works. Most studies show the greatest effect somewhere between 2 - 6 hours after taking it, which might not be very useful for Sun. It's also pretty temporary, and long-term effects aren't known. What I'm trying to say is, his apple treatment would be very hit-or-miss in real life, with unknown long-term consequences.
Lastly, at the stage Sun is at (basically having attacks daily), his "apple treatment" is in no way sufficient. Even if it could somehow save him every single time, it's still bad for his heart to go through that constantly. He needs serious intervention. And I'm pretty sure no doctor worth his salt would prescribe Sun this sort of "apple treatment". My bet is, he either doesn't go to doctor at all, or he's lying to them and/or not taking his medication.
I mean, it's a show, so I'm not expecting it to be super realistic. I might even consider it an interesting plot point, if they decide to go that way. But in no way is his current state healthy or rational.
@yvn,if Kamol was actually homophobic,then why not go after Cherry instead of Kim?
I gave up on the 'bdsm' aspect completely. For one, youtube version seems to cut these parts out. For second, it's not that interesting to me. And lastly, Unforgotten Night is so not the show that could pull it off well, starting from script, going through cast and ending with the budget.
In my opinion, bdsm in UN could never be anything more than 'quirky' with this set-up. But I don't mind 💙

"I’m not sure if the main leads did a workshop."
In one of the BTS videos (https://youtu.be/4TrxIWZrgtg?t=176), Yoon mentions the bed whipping scene from episode 1 was the first scene they shot and that they didn't have much workshops focused on it beforehand, so they were really nervous.
I don't know how much workshopping they've done since, but I do think that the scene in episode 5 was much less awkward, so they presumably got accustomed to it a bit.
Haha!! Love your reactions. I had the same ones, too! Yup, that mask kiss -- I'm also Toi. Haha! And the jumping…
I think he just wanted to sneak in the kiss somehow, so he made Tol overexcited to make it more believable. Like as if he legit forgot he's not with Tin at that time 😅
No, it was produced by "The Dream and Destiny" company (DND)https://contentthailand.com/production/%E0%B8%9A%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%A9%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%97-%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%94%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%B0-%E0%B8%94%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B5%E0%B8%A1-%E0%B9%81%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%94%E0%B9%8C-%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%94/Facebook…
Thanks for letting me know! It's on my long "plan to watch" list 💙

Boy, bye! Wouldn't touch that with a 6 foot long pole 😬
He won't know if he doesn't try 😉
Nope. I refuse to believe that's a possibility 😌
(No, I'm not taking any suggestions concernig my state of mind 🥰)
(just nibble 🐰)
