I’m hoping to see some negative consequences of Jane/Ryan pursuing this very inappropriate office romance, or at least them waiting until Ryan isn’t an intern anymore or else this series will really feel like yet another case of bad writing by GMMTV
None of the scenes here were actually useless. And surprisingly all of this is actually connected to showcase…
Oh trust me when I say I dislike brainless romances with no depth. Which is exactly what this is. Thai bls have been trying to incorporate more ‘serious’ backstory and character development into their plot as it’s what people are (rightfully) asking for…
But more often than not, it doesn’t cut it (at least for me). It’s sometimes the actor’s fault, most of the time it’s bad writing and bad directing. Nothing in this series feels natural, especially Bahmee discovering feelings for a girl in the five days she’s been ignored by her hard working boyfriend whom she previously couldnt stay away from longer than five minutes… You mean to tell me they didn’t try this gimmick to wedge in a lesbian scene? That this is just ‘good writing’?
This series isn’t disappointing to me because its not the dumb writing you seem to think I was looking for, but because it IS a brainless dumbed down youtube show used by GMMTV to make money off the back of OffGun.
This is so bad i don't get the praise... The show is supposed to be about Ryan and Jane but they barely have any screen time compared to Ba Mhee and Tae's insufferable relationship! They could have cut the running time in half if they lacked that much inspiration for the main couple smh
It is actually a first love experience for the main character. And that was how the character was written in the…
I watched the JP version so I’m aware of that! the characters in the JP version looked more mature in my eyes (maybe because i never saw them play teenagers unlike TayNew) so I could appreciate it more as an office romance that’s all..
one thing i can't get behind even if i try really hard is TayNew playing 30 years old 😭 I know they actually are, but they look so youthful and I'm so used to see them in high school/university settings that it's hard to see them as working adults... so the story still feels like a teenager's first love and it's a bit annoying ngl
why everyone's review is so high? it got boring real fast after ep 4, i fast forwarded everything after that. The dialogues are awkward (who waits 10 secs between each sentence in a speech?). The alien storyline I couldn't bear to watch so I skipped entirely. PhobPhat were decent but I couldn't feel the passion... I didn't watch Oxygen so unlike everyone here I am unaware of how much of a step up this series was for Nut, so for me his acting was okayish, still felt a little exaggerated and not genuine most of the time. Really if you want to watch a good love story between a boy and a ghost I'd stick to OhmSingto in He's Coming to Me, at least this one makes more sense.
STANDARDS? HA. Who the hell are you? A Wannabe professional critic? Who are you to tell people what they should…
You're acting like making a good low budget bl before 2023 was some sort of impossible task. I'd say there's a difference between good intentions and good direction. Addicted came out a year before that and under much more harsh censorship than SK ever had, and although it's still not the best, you got well rounded characters and a storyline that somewhat made sense. Compared to that LTNS definitely felt like a rushed school project, and not "a great piece of content".
And ultimately I won't be judging you for liking this, I enjoyed dumb dramas like My School President lmao. But you can't tell me this is "solid"... Apart from Woo Suk the acting is amateurish and the editing is all over the place. At best I could understand a 2017 pov, but watching this in 2023 feels like wasting time. If that's all the director had to offer back then, they could've showed the fun push and pull sofa scene and kept the rest to themselves.
Why is everyone's review so high guys where are your standards?? Acting by Tak Woo Suk was 10/10 but other than that this is the most boring predictable and highly skippable story a bl has to offer... Even though this theme isn't common in the bl genre, it is so common in regular dramas that to pull it off you have to do more than hire a hardly threatening bald guy and call your hitman protagonist "flying dagger"... Running time is way too short for such an ambitious project, and it ends up looking half baked. Chemistry was good though, definitely with more budget and better supporting cast this could have been improved greately, but I can't give this series more than a 3 lmao
I dropped it last year after ep 4 because the push and pull between Mark and Vee was getting exhausting... My mistake, I just finished ep 9 today and can't bring myself to watch the next because i don't want it to end :(
is jaab just bad at acting or is he playing the most accurate and true to life portrayal of an awkward person?? either way i will forgive him for everything because how can one be this handsome ><
