[Thai Drama 2018] Love by Chance Series Season 1 บังเอิญรัก

[1sitsafetocomeout]

My first gay anything was actually Okane Ga Nai and I stumbled across that bad boy at 18 while looking for another anime. I was traumatized to say the least but I was also strangely fascinated. You know that experience where you want to stop watching but you just can't?  I haven't ever watched it again but that's when I began looking for bl anime. I realized there were very few but I could find bl mangas everywhere. I read good ones and terrible ones for months.

After a while, I stopped reading the mangas, then years later a friend introduced me to a book called Angel's Evolution by T A Chase (read it if you get the chance though I'm not sure if it's still being sold). I was hooked. I now have a huge collection. I don't read that many bl mangas anymore but I do still watch anime. And I don't care what anyone says, Yuri and Victor are a couple and currently in my top 3 favorite BL anime couples.

I'm more curious why "Pete" is writen like "Peach".

That's what I meant. 

I hope a  native thaï could tell us. But I remember in My dear Loser, Sun real name was Akin Readagunat (I had to check) so maybe it is just a surname.

 

Spoiler

My trip to BL land start a long time ago with gay series and movies from UK, US, France.

At that time I watch everything even a side story, a 30 seconds' scene from a 1h30 movie.

What I prefer was the beginning of the love story with the doubt, the desire and the first times.

And then while watching on YouTube, gay short movie, from link to link, I discover BL Japan drama, then Chinese (and the hell of bromance) and finaly came to thaï and Taïwan BL. It was about 3,4 years and I'm still hooked and happy to be.

When i was watching "Yuri on ice" the only way i was able to continue watching is to consider the anime as bl. Otherwise it was too much queer baiting to me.

Recap EP9
- Pond is the Lord of Porn and Manipulation
- Tin failed to "cure" Pete
- Can still remember the scent of Tin's breath
- #AePete are practically a married couple
- Tum tried so hard to understand Tar
- Tar tried so hard to fight his nightmare alone
- Chompoo is busy working on her PomPom for Ae

 

Compliation of Pond's Love Cupid Fun Facts !

 

[Fun Fact 18+] #lovebychanceseries In The novel, Pond doesn't only just give Ae his spare condoms, but he put the whole box of special 0.01 condom and a bottle of lubricant (that he ordered them from Japan) into Ae's bag. So he did spend some money specially for his best friend.

 

[Fun Fact 18+] #lovebychanceseries Pond knows Ae's real size because he ordered the correct size for his best friend. Although Pond always insults that Ae is "Tiny", Pete confirms that Ae is not as "Tiny" as Pond claims. He's quite thick as his stocky body too. (Based on the novel)

 

[Fun Fact] #lovebychanceseries This is the first time Pond has his POV in novel. He knows Ae was virgin and so was Pete. Pond was so concerned that without proper equipment and guideline. The first pain will scare Pete. And their love will be in trouble. So he decided to help.

 

[Fun Fact] #lovebychanceseries In the talk between Pete and Pond, Pond double checks if Pete is the Uke. So Pond asks if Pete is scared of the pain, and Pete answers "if he can satisfy Ae, he's not scared." And that impresses Pond very much. He even calls Pete as "Friend-in-Law"

 

[Fun Fact] #lovebychanceseries What if I said Pete knew before Ae called to ask for staying over for a night. Would you be surprised? I'm not. This guy is the master of his plan. He controlled every single move. (Who knows? He might be the one who told Pete to clean that area too)

 

 

Our Lovely Captain Pond
LOL

 

Special add-on: Ae

 

[Fun Fact 18+] From Ae's POV 
"I thought we were doing it only once for that night, but it turns out we are about to start it again for the second time. Moreover what if I'm telling you that the happiness we have had doesn't stop both of us at the second time?"

 

LIKE THE POST IF YOU ENJOY THESE FACTS LIKE ME ! =)

Hi guys! It's been a long time since I managed to come and chat with you on this topic... I missed it so much!!! Actually, even if I don't have time to take part in the discussions I read your posts daily to stay informed 

 

What can I say about the ep.9?? Like all of you I loved it!!!  I think like most of you guys, so I won't repeat all you have already said in your previous comments.  

 

- I love Pond for being such a good friend for Ae. Despite being a bit "too much" sometimes, he always sincerely wanna help.

 

- I love Pete for becoming a bit more self-confident and straightforward. He asserts himself a lot in this ep. and is now able to ask and tell what he wants directly, it's a great improvement! He has figured Ae out, he took Pond's recommendations and Ae's words into account and is trying hard to act consequently, that's great!

 

- I love Ae for being him, always rough and ready. He always says what's on his mind with no filter, just simply bluntly...... My god, that "I'm hard" just killed me 

 

- I love their first night, it was cute and romantic. OK, OK.... I'd have wanted to see a bit more, but we are in a series and Perth is only 17 so we couldn't expect more (I'll wait for the english trad. of the novel to satisfy my curiosity ^^). But, I don't know, I'd have liked to see Pete and Ae a bit more sweaty, with ruffled hair and out of breath in the scene after, just for it to be a little more sexy.... But I'm being picky here, it was great as it was! I love Pete and Ae and their relationship, they are cute together and I like how each one has a positive influence in the other's life. I also really like their respective families (the scene at Ae's home in the previous ep. felt so warm and cosy, I nearly wished I was there with them all partying for Nong Yim's birthday! It really gave me the feeling I was present at a true family moment. And for Pete's mother, she is an incredibly kind and caring woman). 

 

- I love how Can and Tin can't stop thinking about each other, no matter if it's positively or negatively. I am more and more interested in their storyline and I can't wait to see some development in their relationship! At the beginning I only thought Can was a bit irritating and Tin was just a jerk, but my view about them has changed a lot. I loved seeing Can in a new light, being able to be serious about something (his discussion with Pete was a great moment). As for Tin, I've grown a real affection for him because I feel more and more that his awful personality is only a shell for a man who is actually very sensitive deep inside (plus, being mean is an easy and efficient way to draw somebody's attention while keeping a distance and protecting yourself ^^). Each time Can catches his arm to hold him back or drag him (from example in the preview of ep. 10), we can see a great emotion on Tin's face which is, for me, a kind of fear or vulnerability........... But fear of what? Seeing his shell being crashed? Or maybe of trusting somebody? It may be subconsciously for the time being, but I'm sure Tin is envious of Pete's new exciting social life... that's why he is so irritated by Can who saw right through him from the beginning!

 

- I'm pleasantly surprised by Title, Tum in the series. I find him charming and really touching while playing his character. Tum seems to be so reliable and reassuring, no wonder Tar is going to fall for him and be able to overcome his philophobia thanks to his kindness.

 

Another loooong week before the next ep.... Really, each week seems to last an eternity since the beginning of LBC  But I'll gladly and patiently wait if it means so much quality as a result!!!
For this ep.10, I hope the locker room will once again provide us (and Tin/Can) some memorable moments, and I can't wait for the bath scene and others lovey-dovey moments in Pete and Ae's newlyweds life ^^

Yeah I'm so conflicted because I don't want to sexualize someone who is not only a kid, but could also be my child But he is so good at playing his character (who is over 18) so well that I remove the person from the fictional character. Still hard...it's one of the things I always have to grapple with in Thai BLs (most actors are so young), but then I also have to remember that young people are having sex around the world and that sex is a natural hormonal phenomena...all I can do is hope they are being smart and protecting themselves (though that's sometimes impossible when they are too far gone in lust)

 

Yup, part of me was thinking the same...Where is the sweat and the out of place hair?? They looked like models instead of two people who just went at it...but I kind of liked it that way. Their scene was so I don't even know how to describe it...it was innocent??? even though the act itself can be considered sinful...I don't know they just did such a good job at keeping that wondering innocence that comes from having sex for the first time. But I wouldn't know LOL...don't ask me, it's just the 13 year old girl inside of me thought and still thinks sex is about (thus my lack of knowledge )

There's a beautiful BL " first night " bubble floating over all  the BL lands... and I for one am not going to prick it !

I remember the first time I watched Make it right I was feeling weird, like I was a perverted person watching an underage actor playing a sex scene better than the real thing. Tee (Boom) was only 15 or 16 when the series was shot, same for Frame (Ohm), and this series was so much more crude and sex oriented than LBC  It really made me feel bad... Still now it's something I find strange : having a so young cast in a series with so detailed and realistic sex scenes, while, in another show, you can see actors who are in their twenties playing students at the uni who barely and reluctantly dare to kiss their lover on the lips (here I have 2Moons in mind)! That's a bit illogical to me...

 

To return to the subject, I agree with you : Pete and Ae's first night was innocent and it's good as it is! This innocence in their gestures, this prudishness really gave me the impression I was watching this couple living a very special and unique moment, and that's obviously what it was happening so it's perfectly done! 

Now, logically, they'll be more comfortable with each other and eager to experiment more things together.... I really want them to remain as cute and pure as they are now, but I wouldn't mind them being a little more adventurous in the next eps. though (and that will happen with the bath scene).

I am really curious about that! 

How Perth's family allowed him to act in these series! I mean,  the novel is so popular and it contains very "graphic scenes"! He was 16 when he did the casting!

I am not complaining  actually i am grateful that he is Ae and i love his acting! But just curious about how cool thai parents are!

I suspect that they would be more concerned if it was a girl/guy relationship at that age. Social attitudes and all. My son your son..cool...My son your daughter...not cool.  And I'm sure in the contract there are conditions set. I also suppose if your child wants to act in a BL...then you have to come to terms with what that means...I'd have a hard time seeing a 16yr old in TWM/WTD...it's a bit too edgy.

I don't know why but i keep rewatching the recent episode. 

 

I loved Pete and can completely understand why he got upset with Ae. I had great empathy with Pete when they were on the couch. You can't tell someone the "flag is at full mast" and then walk off saying "but you have class tomorrow". Especially when Pete took the time and effort to get cleaned up in all the special places.

 

Personally i would have blown a fuse at that stage! 

 

But, it all worked out great in the end and this has to be the best episode yet.

Well, you can if you are Ae who is not good in reading people. And even if he saw that Pete don't mind him kissing and touching, he still wasn't sure that Pete is ready to go further. So it was best that Pete just told Ae what he wants it too. And as you said:
