To Be Continued (2024) Episode 4

1. Some parts of this are so beautifully shot, and the lingering fits with the theme and dynamic of that scene and moment. And then there are almost parts where it seems like another editor got their hands on the episode and chopped it to bits, and lingered on the wrong things, an empty road, we need thirty seconds of this, a kiss that had a hot passionate moment, clip away to the next day without any sort of fade off or proper editing shots. It’s so wonky.

   I am really enjoying the show and am hoping that the subsequent episodes will be better at the cinematography of it. I have noticed a lot of thai BL’s are feeling like this, where the story is slow, and shot really slow, then last few episodes everything is sped up and rushed, and the cinematography changes to be more fast-paced with it. The long lingering shots on nothing at all disappear, as senses and scenes are heightened. But it makes for a really inconsistent viewing experience for the audience.

   I really have thought that JBL and KBL’s have been pretty top-notch this year and nailing it. I am hoping Thailand can hold on to its crown as the BL kingdom, but some other countries are coming for it. Hard. That’s all I have to say on the videography of the show, I really love love love the characters, and the development of their backstories.

   I really hope that we don’t spend 30 minutes on everything around them in every episode until the last two are just rushed to put the leads together and then the side couple gets like four minutes in the last episode. I am so worried about that being its future.

   But the chemistry is off the charts, seriously outside the nitpicking at the small stuff, it’s a good series so far, I recommend it.

2. THAT hand over the mouth WAS like a SLAP in the face I FELT THAT…….
   Achi and HIS SMILE!! I CAN’T make up mu mind weather I want to slap it or pinch his cheeks!!!!

   So WHATS up with Gumpie and his faces he made when he noticed the picture of Jirapat and the diploma……
   SO I WAS RIGHT!!! Write that one down for a man being right for once!! LOL…..Seriously though I get it though WHY that’s Jirapats fault I do…. I THINK{and I might have this wrong} that Archivach REALLY LIKED/LOVED Ji and Achi KNOWING Pear even simply ‘as a friend’ messed up the relationship AND subsequent feelings Ji and Achi HAD for each other…HOWEVER I think Achi “knowing” Pear was enough for Jirapat to cling to safety….They both were likely at that point of ‘almost’ confessing to each other but “actually” coming ‘Out’ was/ IS scary so I think Ji used the “friend” connection that Achi and Pear had and confessed to Achi that he{Ji} Liked Pear INSTEAD of confessing to Achi that he{Ji} REALLY liked Achi which I believe IS WHAT caused this 10 year distance from each other……
   NOW I UNDERSTAND WHY Achi got punched 10 years later….Nods head makes PERFECT sense……AND hear I THOUGHT that Achi WAS the one confessing his ‘love’ UGH!!!!

3. I thought it was something profound spoken by Achi that made Jirawat leaned in to kiss him. It turned out those were the same things he said seducing Achi 10 years ago. That in turn had Achi’s heart beat so fast (probably loud to the face on top of him) that startled him into running to quiet his exposed heart.

   I kinda understand their habit of sharing lip balm. But what possesses Jirawat to lay his face on Achi’s heart!?

   Standing next to each other, they hesitate saying what needed to be said. Oh well. 🤷🏻‍♂️

4. I need them to be in their dating/romantic era like YESTERDAY! The scene at the pier showed too much potential!!! The tension between them during that scene was almost too “burdensome” for me. Truly thought I was intruding in a very specific intimate moment between them. The scene would have been PERFECT if both of them or at least one of them actually confessed! They both HAD chances to do so!

   Their flashback/younger era’s chemistry is way too strong for them not to have it transpose into the present. And already we can see how sizzling that chemistry is or would be, with that kiss that happened in this episode!

   Basically, I just need them to deal with whatever unsaid business is between them and get to the gritty, nitty, risqué, raunchy parts! I am trying to see something here!

   P.S. Honestly, I am not going to blame younger Ji for his feelings at all. Yes, he was certainly feeling something for Achi, but it is also valid that he is feeling something also for Pear. After all, he was young – in that phase of figuring things out and experiencing many emotions and thoughts. Plus in my opinion, I believe his feelings for Pear [while valid] was more superficial as he liked her because she was pretty. Something he probably realized and tried to use that to reason or make sense of his feelings for Achi – thus the whole sequence where he told Achi that he is pretty….

5. you just maybe right about Ji. I have been on the protect Ji bandwagon, but this episode made me rethink him.
   So first he tells Achi, he likes Pear, then later sends all these mixed signals with the lip gloss and the you are pretty too comment. Right now just going with the theory that not even he knew what was going on with him back then. However, I am kind of getting frustrated with them dragging out what happened in the past, and what caused that final split. If it’s Achi deciding, he needed to back away because of Ji’s mixed signals I can understand. What I don’t get is Ji’s anger and resentment 10 years later. He act liked Achi abandoned him, but if he was swaying back and forth between Achi and Pear, him being mad at Achi pulling away is pure crap. However, if Achi and Pear had something behind his back, I get Ji’s anger.
   Overall this felt like a filler episode. The best part was the make out scene, which lets be honest is always the best part.

7. I thought that kiss was a dream but it was REAL 💋🥰 I was melting with their gentle kisses which turned more passionate. And then of course, Dr Ji had to step on his brake 😏

   I was surprised that Ji was interested in Pear. Did he purposely say that to test Achi if Achi liked him or if Achi liked Pear? Ji couldn’t suddenly changed from liking 🍐to suddenly admiring Achi’s 👀👃👄at that romantic spot. Why did Achi run away? That was a great opportunity to confess his feelings for Ji.
