Kant and Bison are continuing their teenage dream and Fadel and Style are hilarious to me. All wrapped up in a gloriously camp 1950's aesthetic.JoongDunk are doing really well with these new characters. They are much more grown up and sexy in this one and I'm here for it <3

I am now a puddle. That was just the perfect episode to right before Christmas <3What I love about this series, is that for me, it really feels like I'm 15 again. I know these characters are a little older, but I personally, in my mind, am seeing these characters like high schoolers. I suppose they have to be uni because Fah couldn't run a bar otherwise LOL Just being so sweet and naive, and still a little childish wanting your parents attention, and then in comes that first love that emotional matures you. You discover parts of yourself that you didn't know you had.I was very like Rak as a teenager too, I couldn't say no either because 1. I wanted to be liked 2. I don't like confrontation 3. I kind of liked being babied because it made me feel safe, and it was in that first love and eventual heart break where I suddenly realised that I was my own person and could stand on my own feet.Of course, as fluffy BL, Rak and Fah are going to live happily ever after being in next week's preview, Rak is finally going to say to Oh, in his own sweet way, hey, listen, my feelings for Fah are real, and I am asking you nicely to leave us alone. That is such a big step for the character and it's the big leap the plot has been building up to. Rak isn't a baby despite being treated like one and I'm loving watching it and remembering what it was like for me too <3Also side note ~ Flipping PUNLEE being his brother's wingman !! HAHAHAHAHA!! Got them into a room together, told a scary story to scare the crap out of Rak and you know what, I wouldn't be surprised if he cut the lights as well LMAOBest Bestie/Brother Ever. They had better come at me with a season 2 for his love arc because I want to watch it <3

When I first seen this, I had not doubt that FirstKhao would come through. They are my bias, and I know they will deliver the heck out of whatever they're giving me.I was however worried about JoongDunk because I had only ever seen them being goofy and doing cutesy stuff. I'm not worried anymore. They were paying attention in whatever workshops they took because Joong is smouldering and Dunk is loving the hell out of playing Style. I'm genuinely impressed with them so far.

a very strong start. I would never have imagined these pairs together but they are working well and I love the switch up of characters from what both pairs stereotypically play

We've reached the simmering beneath the surface episode where the big reveal is waiting to explode. Firstkhao are continuing their lovers dance and I find First coming at me hard with the puppy eyes. Kant knows he's going to break Bisons heart and Bison may in return, break his neck. His brother and his future are more important but under the bravado, he does feel guilty and is scared of Bisons reaction.On the other side, JoongDunk are taking their chemistry up a few notches with more steamy intimate scenes together, showcasing their pairing as being perhaps the more intense of the two. Joongs Fadel is still keeping his guard up but is melting into putty in Styles hands. Dunk continues to have a blast playing the best character in the whole series with his crop tops and one liners as he navigates helping his friend, falling in love with the enemy and staying out of the on coming backlash.

ooooh, I got a little glimpse of the ultimate plot in this one. Why was the Captain at the school talking to a boy, at the same time as the guys uncovering a teacher for grooming?Hmmmm. I think there's a big illegal ring happening here that Captain could be a part off, and all the wealthy men that Bison and Fadel are sent to kill, are a part of this ring. On another note, the sense of humour is mine. Just the sheer dry wit. From the Kant's facial expressions, Fadel talking with his eyes and Style's one liners. The writer and I have the same sense of humour so even the plot falls off the wagon, I'll still at least find it funny LOLI also don't think Fadel is legit towards Style. I think he's started to play his own game now. He's attracted it, sure but, I think he's doing to Style now, what Kant is doing to Bison.

This is my weekly BL sugar rush. I will be genuinely surprised if this show gives me angst because I just spend the whole episode just grinning like an idiot. The cast are beautiful and the characters are loveable, except Oh, played fantastically though. But this not an angsty show, Oh is just there for some plot drama, he's not a real obstacle. This episode just showed it. As with the football match in the last episode, he's fighting a loosing battle because the writers will quickly conclude the problem, which makes for fantastic Sunday night viewing.
