That makes sense. I had to learn not to expect too much plot-wise from BLs in general. I watch them to relax and indulge. With everything else however, better believe I immediately whip out my critic cap!

Yes I know what you mean, I myself have a handful of points I would have done differently. But I’m still infinitely grateful BL series have come such a long way and J&J is my favourite Thai BL this year so far!

I like that Jack chose the easy way out because I like flawed characters, but he should grow out of that and demonstrate character development by the end of the show.
However, I don’t like that they don’t even suspect the boss of poisoning grandma because I don’t like stupid characters. Or, if the character is incompetent, he should at least be very likeable or move the plot forward.
He was good enough to make the national team, but his coach and the other jury members didn’t vote him in along…
His parents come from a poor, uneducated background and you’re surprised they fell for a predatory clause in a loan shark’s contract specifically designed to take advantage of people like them? If the plot complexity doesn’t satisfy you, just drop the show. 🤷♀️

Well that’s the story, dude got his dream crushed by external circumstances, which is as good a backstory as any other. I don’t know what your comment means to be honest.

Err… I think the plot says because he got trapped into becoming a loan’s shark lackey to pay back his parents’ debt. I’m starting to doubt you’ve watched more than half of the first episode…
Unpopular opinion maybe, but I will still say it. I don't agree with the idea that poor people have to remain…
He was good enough to make the national team, but his coach and the other jury members didn’t vote him in along with the rich guy because they don’t get along and might have created trouble if in the same team. They had to pick one and went for the guy whose dad can fund the association. The coach said so to Jack, which is why he’s so bitter about it.
Perth faced hardships with each of his past acting partners so far, I hope dude finally catches a break (if the SantaEarth shippers allow it) and this project gives him and Santa a good opportunity to show their skills off (if the tanking quality of GMMTV series allows it). Seeing them have fun in those random videos they film heals my heart already.
Not by the way, GMMTV, this is your golden chance to have a switch couple, don’t miss it!
Hehehe I've never been so giddy about waiting for all episodes to be out. It's the same feeling as when you make your bed knowing you're about to roll around clean, warm bedsheets.
Last time I saw a series with Yim and Tutor they were an awkward side couple in Cutie Pie. Imagine my absolute face when I watched this. Their acting improved a ton! I'm usually the only one shitting on a series as everyone else praises it to the moon and back. Here I'm actually positively surprised? I'm so glad I underestimated it and waited until all eps were out!
Yes, there are some awkward bits, such as the approximate dubbing of the Chinese-speaking writer, the AI generated backgrounds, etc. Yes, it's cornier than a cornfield. And, yes the wholesome first meeting during childhood is becoming cliché. But, overall, this was more than decent imo.
They did a few clever/new things and utilised the theme of reading BL web novels and writing in general well, better than other "meta" BL series anyway. The budget and acting were more than okay most of the time. The kid actors were good as well (except that little girl who asks for her cat to be saved). I even cried once! And the main couple miraculously acted like real lovers once they got together.
The music choices were good, too, and I don't say that often. NC scenes were hot (in the uncut version at least) but still tasteful and sensual, unlike some of the stuff I've seen this year. I never thought I'd say this but Boss and Noeul may have found their rivals in that department. But to be fair, Tutor is so damn pleasant to look at they could have just stared at each other the whole time and I would still have come out of it satisfied.
Seriously, I was not expecting such a high amount of effort. I'm still tripping over the fact that they went as far as fake-dubbing the Wuxia parts. It really felt like watching a Chinese drama with their weirdly always calm, ASMR voices added post-prod hahaha.
