we're diving straight into White's privilege

There were few moments in the episode where I went Oh that's good I like what they did here. After two episodes where it felt like we're chasing Black's ghostly presence we're finally diving deeper into White's own internal world. This episode focuses a lot on challenging his worldview. I loved the whole scene with the guy at the diplomatic interview that we met in the previous episode. I kinda forgot about him from last time I watched the show and was wondering if he'll come back to serve a bigger purpose and he did. I also love how he's sort of paralleling Sean at the end of the episode as well. Working class dude who has to work extra hard to get anywhere in life because they're not privileged like White or Black. I do wonder how often Black and Sean previously argued over this and what Black's position was. I also loved the scene with Gumpa and his role in this episode. I appreciate it even more now on a rewatch and with hindsight.I like the pacing that makes it so that the fight with the dad happens just as White is suppose to stay at the garage. It's just enough of convenience without making it too obvious of a writing choice.

random observations need to make, before i get into the ep n get sidetracked ヾ(≧ ▽ ≦)ゝ(otherwise will go off on a tangent, cause of what i see in the ep) the guys i am totally loving n want to see more off (to date): Gram, not only a good-guy but a good friend(!) hope he get's more screen time, n a story of his own ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Namo, seen her twice n think she is gorgeous - n know this a BL, so this Not gonna happen but i like her vibe with Sean. butting-heads might be a great trope of opposites attract, but personally think people who just gel, can have a better (healthier) long-lasting friendship based 'ship' n lust will die down eventually - friendship rarely does ¯\(°_o)/¯ *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Yok, is not only good looking but also adorable n i so want more of him n "UNAR" - they were around each other for a sec, n the scene was electric - or maybe wishful thinking on my part >︿< all i know is that they got more chemistry then the mainsalso weird question, get the woman playing Yok's mother as she is mute not deaf - does Yok need to sign?!? she can hear him - no? like i get he should know just cause - but he doesn't actually need to, to communicate with her at home - idk just wondering ****************************************************************************************************************************************btw also sure am so hyped about the Yok "UNAR" romance, cause of Gawin (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ) who i remember n loved in Dark Blue Kiss (his character was the saving grace of that moronic BL) so maybe that is coloring my POV here **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the ep (ノω<。)ノreally don't get why anyone is making all these allowances for "Black" (the OG is supposed to a badass, mastermind - hard as nails), we get this weakass pushover, that seems like he gonna cry every time he's faced with a harsh word. how he gonna defended himself let alone get justice for his brother?!? so don't get why any character here wouldn't call "Black" out, as he ISN'T the same person n no one changes from Black to White (*  ̄︿ ̄) in a day. and yet they not only going along, they helping him ¯\(°_o)/¯ but if that wouldn't happen, the plot would go nowhere `(*>﹏<*)′ and yet everyone parsing this - only thing i can say, thank frack i wasn't watching this when it was airing ヾ(≧▽≦*)o ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************get the point about the political and social criticism BUT White is acting like a spoilt brat. his brother didn't know better (it sounds like his mother abandoned him, soon after the divorce) so a kid/teen filled with anger, found a nihilistic way to deal with all the injustice he experienced n saw around him, cause he knew no better. idk if his (that group's) action will ever bring actual change, but they for sure might bring on their destruction, as vigilantism is against the law. **************************************White on the other hand might have lived a privileged life, but he also got a higher education, something that should've given him the tools let alone the brains to know how to deal with the situation he found himself in. his father isn't a bad guy or in the wrong, he's a diplomat - a politician. if White had a lick of sense, he would've found a mature way to deal, instead of running off like a child. but from what i've seen, he not smart in the least, just impulsive - but everything is so this plot pushes the main's together... meeh  ̄へ ̄ not really impressed with the main story

Privilege

I really liked it when White confronted his father, and blatantly said that his father used nepotism to pass White in the interview. At least White could understand a little more the predicament that Sean faced as a fringe with no privileges.

Another good episode!

I'm enjoying the politics of this BL the most. They are really speaking out on some heavy topics that I never saw coming in a GMMTV series or a Thai series at that. This BL is already standing out as something more than a Boys' love and I really appreciate that. Where was Gram this episode? I might've missed a comment that he was away somewhere, Yok and Dan's story is getting really interesting. I'm intrigued on why Yok is so mesmerized by Dan. Maybe because of his murals, maybe because he's really cute? (probably the latter). I'm enjoying Sean and White/Black, but maybe not as much as I was hoping. One part that is starting to be a bother is that they keep kind of instructing "Black" on where things are, or how to do things. If this is the real Black, then why must you tell him where the bathroom is? Why must you show him how to shoot if he was the one that taught you? I don't know, probably just a few errors in the script. Or, it could be that Sean, Yok, Gram, and Gumpa already know that that's not Black. I do believe that Sean knows, but maybe not the others. My other theory is that Sean had a crush o the real Black, but maybe Black never picked up on it, or maybe he's strictly only into girls. Now that White is playing the reality of Black, and Sean knows it, he's acting differently now. Why else would he cry when Black said he would quit? Why would Sean really want to clean up "Black" when Black could've done it himself? IDK, just some analyzing.

Ep 3

It's getting in on a lot of important topics that needs to be discussed. I think that was very good. We also got to see Yok and that person who does grafiti interact again. White realising that his dad has always just used connection to cheat/"help" him out, so it really ain't fair. There was just a lot deep stuff in this episode it was really entertaining. I was surprised with how fast it wasa over. The love story between Sean and White is really beginning now as well. A whole lot of things happend in a short amount of time. This may be my favorite episode so far. At least with the storyline really kicking in right now. The two other episodes were amazing as well, but just in other ways. This really hit to be completely honest. This series is just great. Already can't wait for the next episode.

Awareness to Social Inequality, Privileges and Disabilities

This episode gave so much awareness which is a game changer among all the series I've watched from gmmtv. It is more than just a bl series. It gives light to a number of issues, may it be political or even the norms of the society. It's challenging to talk about topics that are controversial esp. in Thailand right now that faces problems on oppositions and rights. This needs to be watched more by everyone. Give this show a chance.3 episode in and it is already an eyeopener that we can learn from. ^^

If I taught last episode was intense, what the fuck even is this one?!

What the hell?I think it will become more intense as the episode will go on, I'm scared!Watching White slowly discovering he has privileges and ditching his dad because, now that he knows, he doesn't want that kind of life anymore. Having is final confirmation about that conversation with Sean and them becoming roommates was great!He is evolving! He is not oblivious anymore, he now knows the world is not just!I missed Gram in this episode, but it was good to see more about Yok! He is so damn sweet! I want to hug him! ?I want to know more about the life of these boys, what makes them be the way they are?!I want to know it!I want to know more about the street artist too!Those two has chemistry, but I hope they'll leave guns out of it as much as possible!I like the themes portrayed, and I hope thy'll keep to talk about it in a serious way!
