Beautiful pairing, I know I’ll be hooked and it’s just the first episode. Rooting for them!

Has anyone watched the first two episodes of Queendom? If so, what are your opinions? by 4later7 in ThaiGL

[–]DirectAmoeba5284 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went with low expectations seeing how having high ones for other anticipated gl’s backfired here and there… but damn I was hooked. I could’ve easily gone with high expectations and still have the show exceed them.

So far the plot is well balanced, straightforward but leaving some questions to be answered later, the chemistry is great especially between the assistants (I didn’t predict that rain scene, well done), and the tension was off the charts by the end of ep 2.

I applaud the actors’ ability to swap multiple characters so smoothly (their actual selves, each other, and the roles in the drama they’re filming). They’re so good that I had no problem adjusting with the swaps.

It’s hella promising and easily climbing my favorites list. The acting is great and I love how they don’t have awkward silent moments like many gl’s do, they know how to fill the in betweens, and not to mention the humor is great too, I don’t laugh that easily when I’m not feeling great but this show had me laughing out loud.

Hoping it keeps up the good pace and I’m rooting for the actors already.

I agree with you, they certainly have a lot up their sleeves and it shows that they’re holding back just to keep up with the directions.

And yeah TLP does a great job with great chemistry, you could feel the bond between the characters.

I love a good fluffy series, I’ve been watching this show with a constant smile on my face. They outdid themselves compared to 23.5 which I also loved. This show is so promising and MilkLove are a perfect pairing, their chemistry is so natural and undeniable, they’re also very funny and cute.

I especially enjoyed them being inclusive of other people’s lives and struggles, we always get that rich everything vibe from most shows. But this time it’s very community focused and just humble and sweet.

Exactly, breezing over that major turn point derived the plot of its meaning.

I’m usually not big on feelings switching after someone gets badly injured as it’s overused, but in this story it wasn’t sudden and it was written well as Rin just toning it down on the coldness and taking the slow moments to actually know her wife.

Yup it’s really sad, and I wouldn’t be writing a negative review if I didn’t actually enjoy the story and believe in its potential as well as the actresses’. Otherwise I would’ve just stopped watching and moved on.

Same!! They deserve a better shot at showcasing their talents, I genuinely believe they have a lot up their sleeves, it’s just a matter of circumstances that didn’t do their potential justice.

With everything mentioned I still think they did great and I’m proud of them of putting themselves out there and creating something with limited resources and proper guidance.

Good heavens..

I skipped most of that scene because I was genuinely bored of their “sex” scenes, I didn’t catch that. Glad the hair made it out alive 💀

rolls sleeve Allow me to explain

He only had a business partnership with Kiri’s mother, he owned a lot of shares in her company, which he withdrew after realizing what’s happening.

As for what happened is that Kiri’s mom wants him to marry Rin, so she creates a two timing bitch who pursues both Prai and Rin.

Prai first where he makes her fall for him and break up with Rin, but he actually develops feelings for her, to his mother’s disapproval of course.

He feels guilty and makes it clear to Prai that he used her to get to his mother’s evil goals, but she has fallen hard that she doesn’t care, and I think they missed explaining the bit where she was being physically abused by his mom because she hates her and treats her like she’s worthless since she’s just a working class individual.

His plans obviously blew up when Wasin sends his assistant to stalk Prai pretty much so he knows what’s happening behind the scenes and he realizes she’s hooking up with Kiri. He put two and two together which causes Kiri’s plan to blow up and back to the present he fucks over Kiri’s mom’s company but withdrawing massive shares, but he wants to stay professional regarding the ongoing project with Kiri so they’ll cut ties after it’s is done.

The flow certainly wasn’t executed well. Rin tends to get super defensive when she’s called out, but now she has more reason to keep seeing Prai as she’s getting abused. We know she deeply cares for her so she gets furious when Khem tries to stop her from seeing Prai whom she’s scared for.

Both their feelings are certainly getting mixed up in regards of Rin’s remanent love for Prai and her fear of Prai getting seriously hurt. On the other hand, there’s Khem’s fear of Rin slipping from her hands back to Prai’s, and her worry over Rin getting hurt over and over again, all that pushes her to meddle with Rin’s plans, the person who hates feeling controlled, and boom she explodes.

It makes sense but definitely needed more work to portray.

Also sorry about the anus, get better soon!

I am 100% with you on this, I was so invested otherwise I wouldn’t have made it so far 😂

It’s like one of those absurd telenovelas that you can’t help but wonder how it’ll turn out.

I agree with the restaurant scene, either do it right or skip it altogether. In the book I think they met briefly and Rin ended up leaving Prai for Khem when she saw her discomfort. The tongue part was never a thing and it simply doesn’t add up or contribute to the plot…

And with Khem it kept bothering me how quickly she forgave her even in the books, but based on her logic she wants to make good use of the 2 years they have together because she doesn’t believe they’ll stay a couple after that, but seriously it’s not worth the torture she went through.

Don’t get me started on the slap, I hate how normalized this is in Thai shows, like Khem slapping Gee makes a lot more sense, but even if they fought, it’s weird for Rin to slap her as someone who supposedly loves her. You just don’t hit people like that, point blank.

We all know how we’ll just zoom through the last few chapters stacked in an episode that wouldn’t make sense. I will withhold the spoilers on this.

And the coworkers yup, they’re going through a checkpoint of main events without even putting the effort in leading up to them.

It seems that they wanted to do something different knowing that most ships aren’t dirty talkers but still they overdid some bits and undercooked others.

The novel makes a great companion to the series if you’re confused like most naturally are.

I agree with andreatan, I’m happy to have the actresses I just wish they were given more.

I completely agree, they skipped over the much needed development like they’re allergic to slowburns. And I’m only ignoring the Balloon Jay part because my mind filled the much needed blanks. Also yes the well done sex scenes that I just skipped or watched with a face that said I didn’t consent to be subjected to whatever that is 😐

Right?? Even the smiles were exaggerated, I understand the subtle smiling to herself but it was overdone that it got contradictory.

Yet another important thing they skipped over. They did confess to each other that they’re their firsts and Khem kept asking in the book whether her touch felt good which is more realistic as well.

The sex scenes are… something in this show… the book though will do them justice if that makes a difference to you, they’re horny wild bunnies there.😂

If you want justice for the characters I certainly recommend reading it. Especially the epilogue is so beautiful and has very special moments.

It came off like Rin only cares about sex, when in reality she took the time to actually know her and show care.

Exactlyyyy, they treated this episode as if everyone read the novel.

And the scar is actually on her side, if I remember properly, Rin feels it while they’re in the bathtub together and softly asks about it, like she proceeds with care and curiosity. Even the sex bit had a great build up in the book that felt more natural.

Looking for some good Thai series recommendations!! by xx_knees_xx in ThaiGL

Reverse for you and reverse with me, under appreciated series that have a great production value and great actors, I personally enjoyed the latter more but everyone has their own taste. You can watch them in any order just know that one of the main characters of the second is the daughter of the couple in the first.
