RL and drama watching

[maggie33]

Well, RL really cares about me not being bored by peace and quiet for too long. Yesterday I had to take my mom to ER at 6 a.m. Or rather an ambulance took her and I followed in a taxi. And at 1 p.m. after a lot of blood tests, tomography scan and IV therapy they decided that she had to stay at the hospital for a few more days. It’s nothing life threating, but it is quite serious, so you know, it wasn’t the best day for us. *sigh*

At least dramas deliver. Too well even. I have too many things to watch now. And this is a problem that I like to have. 😊

Love Scout

Episode 7 was wonderful. Thank you, show, thank you so much, I really needed that yesterday after the day I had.

Squee with spoilers (and one spoilery vid) here.

First there was so much longing and yearning, and you can clearly saw love in their eyes when they were gazing at each other so longingly. Aww… And then that kiss, ahh, that kiss... Finally.

And I just love that she was the one who confessed first, and that she made it clear to him that this is her problem and she will deal with that, and he doesn’t have to feel awkward about it.

And I love how wonderfully they dealt with the second male lead being rejected. And that he was so mature about it, and that they can still be friends.

And here is the MV from the drama’s OST with a lovely song and a lot of lovely scenes of our beautiful couple.

The Heart Killers

I was ready to drop it after the 8th episode, because I fast-forwarded through like half of that ep – basically all Kant and Bison’s scenes, because they bored me to death. And it’s not really the fault of First and Khaotung, it’s because the script IMO is rather bad. Which is strange, because Jojo is usually much better at screenwriting than this.

I was disappointed in a few earlier episodes, too. Because the drama started to be too ridiculous for my taste, and not in a good, amusing way. But I still loved Joong as Fadel and I was still invested in Fadel/Style, so I decided to check episode 9 after all. And what a nice surprise – because it was so much better.

Minor spoilers here.

I didn’t even fast-forwarded through Kant and Bison’s scenes that much, just twice for a short time. Because fine, I admit, they were pretty cute and all fluffily domestic here. And ahhh, that tiny but delicious crumbs of Keen/Thanon... I’m all on board of that little ship. Give JJ a boyfriend again GMMTV, in a more prominent role, I’m begging you. 😊

And Mother either killed Fadel’s previous boyfriend, or he was sent by her in the first place to, I don’t know, seduce Fadel and deliberately break Fadel’s heart so he wouldn’t think about leaving again, maybe?

Petrichor

I like this drama a lot. But I have to say that the episode 8 was a bit disappointing. And unpleasant to watch.

Content warning.

There was a lot of brutal violence against women.

More with spoilers here.

Ok, I suspected Tin a little bit from the beginning. And then they started pushing Kawin as a suspect really hard, and I knew for sure. I knew that Kawin was just a red herring. So then the only other person available for a twisty ‘oh wow, so he’s the killer’ reveal was Tin.

I’m just disappointed with the drama here, and not because it was an obvious twist, but because of Tun’s behavior. I get why she didn’t shoot Tin on the scene of the crime. He’s her beloved brother and she just found out that he’s a murderer. I even get why she didn’t say anything about that to anyone at first. But when she didn’t do anything after that talk with Ran at the hospital... This is IMO so out of character for the person the drama tried to convinced me she was. Tin is a serial killer who killed a lot of people. And now he’s still free and can easily kill again. I would be more understanding if he was just a thief or someone like that, and his crime wasn’t brutally murdering people.

And Ran, too... “I’ll go find Tin myself.” Seriously, Ran, he almost killed you, and instead of talking to two other police officers you know you can trust, you just go after him yourself?

At least it looks like in the next episode Tun will finally do something about it. Here is hoping.

Perfect 10 Liners

I love Force and Book, so I’m very happy that we’re still getting little scenes for Arc and Arm being an adorable, happy couple, despite their main story ending earlier.

I enjoy Yotha/Gun more than I thought I would be. And still I’m mainly waiting for Junior and Mark (based on the trailer their story starts next week, yay). But wow, I already fallen head over heels for Warich and Klao. Aou and Boom are so good here, seriously. And gorgeous, and hot like burning together. And usually they play a sweet and fluffy couple, but here...

Spoilers here, too.

Warich smokes, that means he’s a bad boy, or at least bad boy-ish... 😉 He’s also manipulative, and IMO he enjoys that he still has a little bit of the hold on Yotha. I think he likes when his lovers are emotionally dependant on him. When Yotha kissed Wa, Wa didn’t pull away or push Yotha away, on the contrary he leaned into a kiss and put his hands on Yotha’s hips. And Klao is so easily jealous, very possessive and has violent tendencies. They’re a bit toxic and I love it. And I have another request for GMMTV here – make Aou and Boom a main couple in the drama, pretty please. 😊
