1. Haven’t finished the episode yet but man was Atom’s scene hot!🥵 While enjoying the hotness lol in the back of my mind I was going oh noooo that’s officially Ryu’s man now tho😆🙈
   Then they showed the shot of Zen looking at Ryu and he started to tear up. Awww he knows Zen is into Ryu… poor baby. This is the best thing I’ve seen Frank in in a long time.

2. The power of love, all of a sudden Q has special powers which make it possible for him to kill all those guys in a matter of seconds? Okay.
   How can Ryu and Zen be so calm after witnessing that? Zen was more terrified when they were playing street basketball and almost got caught by the police then when he saw Q kill all those guys.

   If Ryu was so comfortable with his sexuality now, why did he push Zen away again , when they kissed that other time? I wish they would of addressed that before deciding to officially date. The Ryu that night and the Ryu now are were like two different people.

   I’m sorry, but I still find Atom creepy. Like he kept rocking up at Zen’s place without asking Zen first, that’s just weird. I get that he is a good guy, but that is still strange and again, Zen didn’t seem to be comfortable with it either all the times he did that.

3. What in the magician hell happened here? How did Q get the gun and untie himself fast enough to kill everybody?
   I’m sorry but I’m all for Atom moving to Phuket with his dad. Go use your hand thinking about someone else! I did feel bad for him when he was crying thinking about how Zen looks at Ryu.

4. Who keeps their phone in their pocket at a pool?

   Why does Atom need a basketball scholarship. Looks like the family is pretty well set. Daddy can move where he wants for Atom’s schooling.

   That is the house used in several other shows. Other than Brothers, I have forgotten which ones. They did a new wall for the stairs.

5. When I tell you this episode had me with a world of emotions I laughed, panicked, cried, and even was frustrated. The lovey moments in the beginning and ryu possessiveness like omg give zen some room to breath don’t worry your man ain’t going no where. This episode sent me into a whole mood swing because I felt bad for atom kinda because he knows but doesn’t want to except the reality of this situation. The whole family situation plays into this too because I feel he likes zen but also likes the vibe he gets around zen and got infatuated with that ideal of peace when he around him or things he has around also. Thats why I believe even when he around zen house with the grandma even without zen he looks happier because his household doesn’t feel like a home to him especially with his dad there. On the other hand zen house feels like a home it might not be that way but I believe his feelings for zen is true but also he just wants a true family. Can’t wait to see ryu open up to zen about his past because we need to get to the root of this mom problem because so far we got 2 shitty parents and a saint of a grandma. I was mad at ryu when he got kidnapped because he was at school like hello do they not have cameras but then I have to remember it’s a tv show lol but he really should have ran instead of just standing there. Omg watching Q confess he loves ryu is so sad and nasty too because dang the man has to watch the one he loved and care for get hurt is so sad but also he is 16 like where’s the line I was asking the same question when the boss asked to have ryu. The boss getting in his feelings when Q confessed his love it didn’t shock me but still was interesting because how he treated Q wasn’t love that was control so yo don’t get to feel bad when he loves someone else. Zen is too dumb for his own good if you knew where ryu was why not call the cops or something it all worked out in the end but him getting kidnapped and beaten up was sad and him and ryu just laying there embracing each other seemingly accepting there fate was so sad. Q to the rescue though and happily so and I didn’t feel an ounce of sympathy when the boss died. But I did cry when ryu and Q was parting ways I hope Q still around he deserves a happy ending can’t stress that enough. But really broke me was when zen and ryu snuck in the house that night I completely forgot about the grandma but when I remember i thought she could have been so scared a she would have been so sad if zen never came home she’s all he has and for that to be taken away would have probably broke her. It made even more mad at zen because going to help ryu without telling anyone else was selfish there are others who care for you and to put them through the heartbreak of putting you in the ground without even knowing is a pain no one should feel. The last part with them seemingly getting it on was so confusing because wasn’t y’all about to die like 2 hours ago like WTH but pop off I guess. This episode was the best episode I’ve seen this month and I don’t think anything can top it and that’s saying something because I’ve loved all the episodes of the my love mix up Thai but this episode takes the cake. a show hasn’t made me cry actual tears and a while and I commend them for that I don’t cry for any show but this dept and storytelling was great and I can’t wait to continue watching.

   aw man, that was super cute they way Ryu asked, and kept saying he couldn’t hear, when he asked Zen to be his bf.
   very nice lil kisses!!

   Zen needs to be honest with Atom.
   Holding his hand is NOT the way.

   Oh Ryu and his punishment. Goodness. all those sniff kisses and giggling on the bed!
   happy smiles

   Does Atom’s dad ever NOT have a bottle of wine open??
   Not sure why they have to wait to move until after the tournament, since he quit the team.

   Oh my!! Atom whatcha doin under those covers??? and who you lookin at while doin it??? Too bad, he’s got it so bad. That ship has already sailed.

   YUP! I agree Coach! It DOES suck!
   They make it to the semi-finals, and they don’t give them any more budget to compete? The deal was IF they won their ‘very important’ game, they wouldn’t loose their club. (OR IF they won the tourny- in which case, the money SHOULD have already been set aside. jeez)

   um, hearing Zen call Ryu 10th grader was a bit of a let down. I’d thought, and would rather they were, seniors. sigh

   OIY! Just grabbed him right off the street? (I’m so over the gang crap plot line.)
   FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! HE JUST FREAKIN RECOVERED and GOT THE CAST OFF THAT FREAKIN MORNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!’Stop kicking him!!!!
   Dangit!! He’s STILL A CHILD! He’s not even 18 yet, STOP HITTING HIM!

   And Q admitting he loves Ryu seemed to have hurt the boss.
   Dummy Zen going in alone???? Should have called the Calvary! What’s he gonna do all alone?

   The moose antler handles were an interesting fashion choice.

   Well DANG Q!!!! He straight up took EVERYONE out! Boy don’t play around!
   I mean, it was actually self-defense. So…. I understand why he won’t, but I wish he would.
   Sad. NGL, I cried.

   What do you mean, what might happen in the future? All the baddies are gone, FLY STRAIGHT please.
   Take your relationship to the next level? YOU JUST BECAME BFS!!!

   Gracious, WHAT an episode!

8. Boss loved Q & was hurt by how Q loved Ryu more than him. The pain in Boss’s eyes when Q shouted I really do love him was heartbreaking. But also feel like their relationship is simply a Q falling in love with his abuser but still holding out on his relationship with Ryu while Boss is just being money hungry & a bit delusional.

   Ryu & Zen’s love was solidified after each risked their life for the other. Meanwhile Atom is also in love with Zen & tryna look out for him.

   So much love drama!

9. I feel so so so sorry for P’Q…..

10. OMG 😂 it’s not the neighbors that would complain. I think grandma doesn’t want what’s happening under her roof. Especially they are underage. Tone it down boys.🤫🤭

    Sorry I was second hand embarrassed for what Atom is about to do. And for Zen being the object of his desire. 🙈🙉🙊

    I had to laugh when Atom’s fantasy came to Zen holding up the victory fingers, he climaxed. ✌️

    So sad. His realization that Zen’s into Ryu already, and he himself will have to move away soon.

    Grandma’s the best. She must have felt that Atom lacks parental guidance.

    I’m not surprised with Zen’s lack of common sense and Q’s ability to free himself. It wouldn’t be a drama without the brotherhood and lovers going through thick and thin together.

    🤞 I hope Ryu would be successful taking Zen to the next level and not alert the neighbors. 😆

11. this was a satisfying episode to boot…Q’s turnaround was a tad surprising, but not completely unexpected, because the choice was between that or Ryu dying….. he loves Ryu after all…..but I have a lurking suspicion that big-bad boss may not have actually died… :/ ..I am speculating that he (or his gang) might just resurface where Ryu’s mom may also chip in with the drama and spectacle

    Atom’s jerk off scene was both tantalising and sad…I can not but like him and yet, what he seems to be headed for (continue to pursue Zen despite the obvious), can only end in heartbreak

    I was expecting “more” when Ryu said “lets take it to the next level”…it makes complete sense, like we almost died, lets not wait to bang each other senseless…:D

    Its also kinda sad to see so many of the adults failing the kids, and pushing them towards uncertainty, risks and emotional trauma – Ryu’s mom, Atom’s dad, Grandma is the saving grace…I loved Atom-Grandma interactions and imagined a scenario where Atom gets to ditch his father’s dream (b-ball) and gets to make desserts instead….i will definitely go buy ..^-^

14. What the heck just happened… 🤯

    There was so much going on in here, all i’m gonna say is grandma is Goated.

15. The way I was just smiling and internally screaming with every single interaction between Ryu and Zen, I love them so much…MeenPing are truly such a great pair, they have great chemistry, I love it!

    My jaw just dropped to the floor when Atom started touching himself while thinking of Zen, I’m not complaining tho hahaha but i’m worried that he may become a problem in the future, with every episode he seems to be getting even more attached with Zen, so I can see being an issue in future episodes, especially because we already know Ryu is the jealous type.

    And wow, I really didn’t think Q was going to take down every single guy including the boss, I don’t even know how that was even possible but I don’t really care 🤣 I just want my boys to focus on basketball and being boyfriends!

16. SPOILER… WOW, THIS HAPPENED!😮💪

    You know what, unlike many of these redemption arcs, this one I believe. I think when he knew he was going to lose the person he loves for real he couldn’t bear to see it. I think Q saw a lot of himself in Ryu and didn’t want him to end up like him indebted to bossman the rest of his life. BRAVO!😌

    P.S. I had a good laugh when Ryu took the chance to ask to take it to the next level not even a full day after becoming official boyfriends, lol🤣 Yes, Ryu you nearly lost your lives, nothing makes you h*rnier and wanting to “seal” the next level more than that, lol😁 It’s not like you just saw at least 3 people killed in front of you. If it were me, I’d still be trembling from the horrific ordeal🫣😶‍🌫️

17. SPOILER… I’m sorry but Zen is foolish and dumb for going to rescue Ryu without telling someone or getting reinforcements. Like what was he thinking?!🙄 Q is naïve if he thought bossman would just trust he’d bring Ryu in again after he had burned him a few times already. Atom, I feel sorry for you but you’re living in unrequited cloud 9🙈 I know you know that Zen only has eyes for Ryu thus that tearful jerking off scene🤧 D amn these writers really want me feeling bad for Atom, eh?!😏 Dude, can’t even “satisfy” himself in peace😭…

    That convo with grandma- Atom, you can have dreams at any age and not everyone figures out what their meant to do so early in life. And those dreams can also change as the yrs go by…

    Based on last ep, Ryu’s mom and those guys restraining him is likely the reason why Ryu didn’t make it to that final game and the reason why he fled and preferred living on the streets than being in a prison at her home. Ironically tho, he ended up in bossman’s prison instead🙇‍♀️ Now I’m wondering if Atom end will end up going to ZenRyu’s school and playing at RyuZen’s b-ball team even tho he doesn’t like playing b-ball?🤔 Will Atom maybe move in with Zen and grandma as friends?🤔 He needs a family that’s supportive. I think Atom will end up leaving his daddy the way Ryu left his mommy. I love how grandma is aware of her limitations as a grandma but also knows she can provide the love and kind words these boys want and need to hear and in return they can look out for her🥺 Btw I get that Ryu’s mom is resentful that the dad left but that’s not Ryu’s fault… I’m still really liking this series.

    P.S. For the record, I’m still Team Ryu! Yay!🥳
