GMMTV STUCK THEIR FOOT INTO THIS

They ate this shit up and down, bro. The average is 9.33, so I will round it up to 9.5 out of 10 and it will join the gang. I watched the Japanese version a year ago—almost two years ago now—and this was genuinely so much better. If you are on the fence about this, watch it (or pirate it on some site, whatever floats your boat). It was really good. And yeah, spoiler time. I don't know if the fact I have already watched this makes me biased, but I don't care; this was very well done.

Stop being a cheap piece of shit and just pay for the VPN; it is not worth it watching this on daily motion. If you have Billi Bili in your country, save your money; if not, get that VPN. If you are going to watch it on Daily Motion, make sure you try to watch full episodes and not the ones split into four parts.

Back for round 2: "Haven't we been here before? I liked the Japanese version, and I just finished Dark Blue Kiss, so I am back here on Daily Motion to watch the Thai version. The concept of this still freaks me the fuck out." Just the thought of randomly being able to hear people's thoughts would scare me so fucking much and I would never leave my house ever again. New and Tay look so much younger than they did 5 years ago, lol. Also, all of my reviews, at least 100 out of the 300 words, were going feral for Tay smiling. We met Karan and compared to the Japanese version, he was so much better. And I would get myself checked out for schizophrenia if I started hearing people's thoughts. The first episode set everything up really well, and they still kept most of the charm that the original had while still making it its own. Karan has liked Achi for 7 fucking years; that I do not remember but that makes everything so much better. Also, he can see people's thoughts, but only sometimes. That was a little confusing. My love for Tay: "MY MANN, Karan, or Tay looks so hot when he is smiling. So handsome when he smiles—what a handsome man." And they ate up the start of this and it set up the show for something great.

I was still freaking out of the whole concept of mind reading. "So far, I like this version better just because of the chemistry and setup, but I think that they did the first episode justice and did not shit on the Cherry Magic name, the very long cherry magic name." Also, fuck Daily Motion. New and Tay did such an amazing job as Achi and Karan stuck their fucking foot into these roles. Karan actually liked Achi in this, instead of whatever the other one was doing. "I think that New is great for this role because he always looks scared and confused." Me being in love with Tay version 2: "He is handsome, he is nice, he is a hard worker, and he cares so much about you, dude, I would fall for him. I would get so fucking distracted, dude."

New in a suit scares me but he looks so FINE when he is in his normal clothes. "I feel like this is a heavy case of pretty privilege because if someone like Karan had a crush on me, I would be flattered but if it was someone ugly, I would be creeped out. What does that say about our society?" The person who played Jinta did such a good job, he reminded me so much of the original and I loved it. The whole thing with Karan not being able to sing, holy fuck, I was laughing about that for the rest of the fucking show. "I guess Karan has something he can't do." It also still had the funny charm that the original had. My love for Tay, version 3: "HE IS SO FUCKING FINE WHEN HE SMILES. TAY IS SO FINE WHEN HE SMILES, OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD, MY MAN."

"When I hear the stupid wind chimes it is either time for a cringe moment or something cute." Duj working there for 20 years was insane; she actually got trapped. I love how close-knit the work community was. "145 heart rate when looking at someone, that's so cute." "Achi claims he doesn't like him but he is acting like this, dude. Achi is very selfless and I think that is one of the many reasons Karan likes him so much." Love Achi. My love for Tay version 4: "Tay is so fine when he smiles, oh my god, going feral. Holy fuck v2. Handsome man. v3. I keep smiling holy fuck. v4 I AM FALLING FOR YOU, SIR."

One problem is I have no concept of what episode I am on lol, not the show's fault, just daily motion. Achi was such a good guy in this, he was very aware and considerate about everything and it made me very happy. "When you start feeling comfortable and safe and your heart goes crazy when you are around them, that is love Achi." Jinta and his future idol career: "FUCK EM UP. JINTA BRO, HE IS EATING THEM UP. Gagged. Oh fuck, eat up. Rip, he was about to be their 5th member. I am pissing my pants laughing." Karan is very possessive and lowkey a control freak. We see that more in the later episodes, but it is swept under the rug because he is handsome, but he is very much a control freak. I love rock and pai they were very cute and added to the show. "Rock and Pai are definitely going to be a couple." Ate with this prediction. Tay love version 5 lol: "TAY BRO. Fine as fuck. v1 kicking my feet and shit. v2. TAY BRO. Fine as fuck. v1 kicking my feet and shit. v2."

They had some interesting confession places lol. They also did their serious moments really well, with the whole thing about Ms. Kem and Karan. Workplace harassment. "Preying on him bro, 23 his brain isn't even completely developed yet dawg. Oh, that's not a good feeling. I feel bad for Karan bro. "He's a man." That doesn't make it okay. That makes me very sad actually." And that's how Achi and Karan started. This episode was great because "Achi was the first person to see him beyond the superficial" and "Karan was the only person to notice all of his hard work." "Karan is this confident guy but Achi makes him all nervous and weird. 7 years holy fucking shit. You can't even make a crazy out-of-the-blue trip to Chiang Mai because you don't have a car. Running on what looks to be the highway in a suit with a backpack on is fucking funny. Achi picked the wrong career, someone get him on the national team for fucking running. He is not quite sure how he feels about you but he knows that it is love. Awe. I know he smells fucking horrible. Awe dude, this is cute." Sadly no Tay love in this one, but I am sure he was looking sexy. "Why focus on the future when we have the present waiting for us?"

"Pai and Rock bro, are cute too. Pai taking a picture of Achi and Karan and Rock taking a picture of her. Fuck this is adorable." Loved all of these little scenes so much, bro. And don't Karan and Achi have the same salary, how is he balling out so much? I think family ties, I guess. Tay love version 6: "TAY BRO. HANDSOME MAN. FUCK I WOULD DROP ALL OF MY SHIT TO TALK TO HIS SEXY ASS. I WOULD FALL ON MY FACE FOR YOU SIR."

And 6 hours to go today, I locked into everything besides college apps. "Achi has gone 30 years with no romance, of course, he is fucking awkward dude. What did you expect? He is very considerate about everyone but himself." The boss found them out so fucking fast it was insane, can these two catch a break. "Full circle with the shits. Ms. Kem dude. That is not something anyone should go through." The fact they touched back on this to show oh much growth Karan has done was great, I loved that for them. And the big reveal, which I would not have believed him at all, but that's why I am not in the show and instead watching them lol. Tay love version 7: "So handsome fuck bro. TAY AND THIS SMILE ARE MAKING FERAL. LEGS ARE SPREAD SIR. Tay bro, fine as fuck when he smiles."

"This is so much cuter than the other one bro, I am giggling so much. Karan instead of being freaked out, is milking the fuck out of it and I love that for him. Karan is a freak seven days a week." They are both great communicators and I feel like that really helped their relationship in the long run when everything was being thrown at them every which way. "It is a great opportunity but at what cost? They just keep adding on problems lol." "This show is lowkey deep as fuck." Tay my love version 8: "TAY SEXY MAN."

"Karan is a control freak lowkey, but it is not in a malicious way." I feel like when they start to become a thing we see this more. I talked about it in one of the episodes and now this one. He is always so used to being Mr. Perfect so that people (at work, his family, even Achi) see him beyond his looks. And because of this, this control freak is born. I guess you wouldn’t really see it because they are so cute. But for the past 7 fucking years, he has been doing stuff around the office, and for Achi that makes people realize when he is gone. He likes to do things at certain times every single day because he likes his control. We see this in his and Achi’s date and how everything has to be perfect and he doesn’t really stop and consider Achi’s feelings in the matter and just wants to control everything and make it perfect. I feel like it's not that big of a deal, only when he gets jealous of Jinta and gets mad at Achi (which is like once be fucking for real), but when that happens, you are just like oh. That's a big part of him. Lol, I don't know why I felt the urge to rant about that. I remembered I had free will lol. Back to the episode now. "Lacking communication skills, I thought they were doing good. It is not anyone's fault really, it is just poor timing. It is not because he doesn't trust you, he just cares. But you obviously have a problem with it and you aren't telling him and it's overwhelming. Achi is such an overthinker, it is because he cares a lot. RBF is back, holy fuck." Every time Karan gets angry, I say RBF is back. "Nice needed reality check though. Maybe the real idol was the friends we made along the way."  That ended a little abruptly so I definitely missed something, but daily motions fault.

I have no idea where my review for this episode went. But it was a cute little long-distance bit. I could not hear Karan singing without cringing so I started singing over him. Good episode and I was hoping that they could bring it home.

"Y'all got freaky. Less overthinking for him. Powers are now gone. Maybe the real cherry magic was the friends we made along the way dude." I copied and pasted some of my college essays in here so I am gonna delete that lol. "Karan a freak. Karan has been a freak. Oh, his parents aren't supportive. That wouldn't make me feel good. RBF is back. You don't support him, that makes him feel like shit. Karin saying what we are all thinking, she is a good sister. Is she the same woman from earlier in the show? She looks different. The same thing happened to all of his hobbies, they just disappeared for his mom and dad." Then they had a friends we met along the way ass ending with them married but it was fine. Could have been better but it wasn't and life goes on lol.

Ignoring the fact this wasn't available for international fans because of copyright or whatever that Instagram post said, GMMTV ate. ATE THIS SHIT DOWN. Would I recommend it? Yes but watch the other one first and then this and this will be a lot better. Or don't and do whatever the fuck you want, I don't care. I am going to go fan girl over Tay some more. Okay bye!
