not even 1 min in and Joa saying "i wanna leave, there's too many people. it's annoying.." same dude, there's so much going on already and i'm like ugh too many character's, maybe i should leave well enough alone but i'm bored so whatever... *********
yeah cringe acting at times from everyone. but think almost everyone a newbie, so kinda expected, if anything i blame the director who did a poor job directing novice's - other then the fact it's his job, he Aint a novice and should've known how to direct everything so it wasn't such a chaotic mess. lets hope the plot starts getting interesting enough, so can ignore all the imperfections that r very distracting in this ep - *************************************************************************************
like others have mentioned, Toh friends - well that whole group is nuts and over the top (they seem like over active toddlers, they r All over the place), and yet i enjoyed them coming together to help their friend leave a gift on Nuea's car, let alone afterwards - that was sweet. but i didn't get why Nuea was all smiles, even allowing Toh to "get away" as if he hadn't caught him, only to toss the gift in the trash in front of his friends - he supposed to be a good guy (or that's the image he been hard- selling from the start of this. felt excessive at times) guess it was to cover his true face? cause that a douche move, kicking someone who he deems unworthy... well the whole group in one shot, cause he knows he can, and they have no social standing to get back at him. Toh needs to find a worthier crush, but it is what it is (also this is the plot )************************************
but he still kind of a A-hole one on one with Toh, it's like jekyll and hyde, and considering what a pushover Toh is, i don't like Nuea's condescending side, that comes out Only around Toh. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
btw Sky not letting Jao through, and he asking "what's his problem..." huh?!? u were the one 'dancing' around, preventing him from getting out, but hey now i know who the side couple is ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - Saint as good looking as ever, but happy for him as he's Executive producer in this, so hope this turns around or gets better and is a success for all involved.

Laughed My Ass Off

It's so rare that I ever like the first episode of a series, but this one is the anomaly. I love the way these actors are portraying their characters. Obviously, all of them are over-exaggerating, and being extra for no reason, like hiding from Nuea is one scenario I can think of. But it's hilarious, and it's supposed to be that way. Of course, this series shouldn't be taken seriously, and I know I'm not as I usually do. It's melodramatic and over the top for a reason, to get a laugh out of the viewers. Nothing any of the characters do I would ever support in real life, but this is a BL, and I usually don't take these things seriously when it's happening in a fictional world. It's obvious that Toh has an extreme obsession with Nuea, which isn't healthy, and at times was a bit much (collecting the things he's touched, his collage of photos, the bedsheets, and don't even get me started on the cardboard cut out...good lord). Part of me wishes that they would've made Nuea some bigtime celebrity that went to their uni so maybe Toh's obsession wasn't as unorthodox. But anyway, I can already tell this is going to be my new feel-good series like Tonhon Chonlatee and Gen Y -- a series that you shouldn't take to heart and realize they're just there to get some type of positive reaction out of you. Don't take the things these characters do seriously -- take their conflicts, personalities, relations, and outcomes with a grain of salt. I'll just have to hope that the people watching aren't easily influenced by the decisions they see these characters making.

I'm interested and considering taking down my posters

There are many characters to keep track of because we're introduced to the friend groups of both leads. I might have to take notes for this show. We're thrown right into their lives, and it seems like the first day is marked by when his friends find out about his crush. His friends ignore how strange the stalkerish behaviour of Toh is. Are they aware that his home is basically a shrine? I love that they give him unconditional support and that Neua knows about this 'secret crush'. (How could he not when Toh is the worst at hiding it?) I look forward to seeing the show mellow Toh out enough for a functional relationship. I'm excited for GAP to come out, so I'm also holding out for the GL.

Let's face it, the 1st episode will never be the best one.

There are too many negative comments going around about the MC being a stalker. I don't want to invalidate their opinions about the series but I just hope they'd give it the chance it deserves because if you're just going to judge a story through first impressions, you would first, spoil the fun for others, and second, spoil the fun of getting to know the story for yourself. Yeah, stalking is bad and some of the MC's actions are really cringe-worthy (believe me, I did, too, at first) but you have to note that the series showcasing "stalking" doesn't mean it supports it. It's just telling a story, that's it. Of course, the people behind it know that what they're presenting may raise some concerns or reactions. But stories are stories and what makes a story fun is the development that happens within it. The MC's actions sure are creepy (and hilarious, I just want to say that it truly is funny at certain times because they would take up the whole action to a notch higher as if mocking the act itself). It just boils down if you're willing to see through the end of the story. You can or not watch it, but invalidating the story just because you don't share the same sentiments as what it shows by only watching the 1st episode just doesn't seem right.

(I just had to get that out cause I felt misjudged for the people who made the series come to life)

Going back to the episode, definitely not the best one. I had already gone through all the 3 episodes so far, and believe me when I tell you that it gets better. Yeah, Toh's actions are truly concerning (especially the collecting hobby he's doing) but that's just how dramas or series or movies are most of the time. They make you feel uncomfortable, therefore forcing you to look at it from a different perspective. But it's not like he won't improve; not like there won't be development for his character because there would be, and that the MC has more depth than what his character initially shows.

Just give the series a chance, if it really doesn't work out, at the very least you gave it a try, right?
