In this episode of Check It/Round Table Onna discusses My Engineer, season 1, episode 2, and how in this episode of the series Bohn is starting to like Duen and Duen and him become quite uncomfortable in their relation to one another.  In this epsiode Bohn reluctantly attends a birthday party of a woman who he is casually dating that goes awry starting with her attempt to flirt with Duen at the bar where he retaliates by saying that women who flirt with men at bars are bad women as his mother told him and warned him off, which goes really well--not.  During this scene, Bohn has Duen and his friends come over to the table with him, the casual girlfriend, Mek, Boss, King, and two other girls at it and uses Duen, who is rather snockered, as an example against the girl.  This leads to Ram rising up and saying that Bohn should not use people to make a point and helps Duen out of the bar with his friends.

In this episode of Check It/Round Table Onna discusses how she was looking for something a bit light-hearted and funny to have with her barbecued beef Kale pizza last night and My Engineer, season 1, episode 1, fit the bill. This episode starts with Bohn who is named Prom King and is getting his pictures taken along with the second runner-up in the contest, who are surrounded by some fan girls, whom Onna found bloody annoying.   Onna considers how Bohn meets Duen, and the Proper Way to wake someone up (it involves 12" difference in space and quiet tapping and asking someone to "wake up)"  As the story progresses, Bohn forces Duene to bring a flower for Bohn every morning from a flower street seller who is a child because he discussed it with his much younger sister who told him that he should follow through on a promise even if silly because he promised to.  Onna has a shout out to Ryan Ping, who portrayed Mek, and did a great job portraying someone with pent up emotions and being thoughtful and kind and the difficulty of saying something/not saying something, a shout-out to Nakhun Screaigh for his portrayal of Ram who defends his friends with a quiet support of solidarity and his comradely with the character of King portrayed by Talay Sanguandikul, who is a great comedic relief.  Onna concludes with the one thing she did like how Bohn asked Duene later on in this series as their relationship progressed to move in with him, not for romantical reasons, but because he liked his presence.  It's all here.  It's all real.

In this epsiode of Check It/Round Table Onna discusses BL drama and the three obvious camps with their flags flying and why some of them may want to reevaluate their flags.  There is the camp of fan girls who tend to fantasize on the guy actors in the drams, which seems rather bizarre to Onna as in the dramas the guys featured don't end up with any girls, let alone a fan girl.  There is another camp of educated women in their late 20's to early 30's who like this genre because of the questions and the strength in the relationships shown in some of the films/series, and the third camp, which just dislikes BL drama for the sake of it being a BL drama.

Onna continues the BL digression by discussing why the litmus test for any decision is to judge by the highest material possible and how unfortunately many of the BL genre productions are not of high quality and these should not be used as a litmus test because the judgement is based on the volume of material, not the rarer, quality productions, which is a pity.  When making decisions, the jury should judge by the quality material.

Onna then considers the Tapas.com thread on this subject, https://forums.tapas.io/t/why-do-you-think-bl-is-so-popular/16364/63, and how the lack of gender wars and the incorporation of good questions are two reasons that many people do enjoy this genre of film.  Onna considers how she, like many women, does not like the portrayal of women in film as less than the amazing creatures that we are, and how by picking a BL to watch for funsies, she doesn't have to watch females as leads being illogical creatures and how the characters that do in end together in the higher quality BL shows/films, the couples tend to get together for good reasons, character trait appreciation, comradely, etc.

In conclusion, Onna considers how many guys tend to be averse to BL drama and how this is an odd little issue and how if we have a line on something, it may be worth evaluating that line as to why it is there and how we should search out something before we make a judgement on the subject, "It is the honor of Kings to search out a matter. . ."  and how we should make our own decisions and make our own lines:  love/Life on the line.  Onna adds an addendum that the BL dramas from Asia interest her more than North American BL drama it is about the character being gay and goes out looking for another gay individual.  Whereas, in the Asian BL dramas, it is about an individual living their life who happens to meet another individual and gradually, over time, because of shared interests/commonalities that are shared, they decide to live their life together.  In many ways, this consideration of commonalities the couples share rather than an obsession over sexual orientation, is what makes Asian BL dramas so refreshing over their North American counterparts in BL.   It's all here.  It's all real.

In this episode of Check It/Round Table, Onna discusses the conclusion/finally episode of Love by Chance 2, episode 13, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YlEsBMsJNw, and she considers how this episode in a nutshell is not about everything working out perfectly, but about everything working out. It's all here. It's all real.

In this episode of Check It/Round Table Onna discusses Love by Chance episode 12, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8UevsOY1sE and how this episode gets a 10.5 out of 10 for being absolutely awesome!  This episode is about Can going to visit Gonhin in England and trying to mend the breach between Gonhin and Tul, which he successfully does by the end of the episode and Can having trouble telling Tin that he misses him. Also we have a brief digression with Ae, who continues to post to social media in hopes that Pete will see it and that they will somehow bring him back, and Kengkla and Technic continue to try to mend what was broken by Kengkla's behavior and move forward with their possible relationship. It's all here. It's all real. It's all here. It's all real.

In this episode of Check It/Round Table Onna discusses Love by Chance 2 episode 11, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeW6i3O5Oq4, where Can decides to defend Tin's honor against Tul and faces Tin's dad. This episode is one of Onna's favorites is it really shows what happened between Tin and his father and how they mend the break that has been in their relationship for years.  Also, in this episode, Tin gets permission from his father to continue his relationship with Can and he goes on to try to mend Tul and Gonhin's relationship as well. There is also a hilarious scene featuring Can speaking with Ae about how Ae had taught him to be brave in everything that he did, which is one of the reasons that he is able to continue his relationship with Can. Onna concludes with a short digression on Kengkla and Technic and their relationship's many issues. It's all here. It's all real.

In this episode of Check It/Round Table Onna discusses Love by Chance 2 Ep10: a Thai BL Drama and how this episode features Tin and Can and how they handle the onslaught of Tul and his attempt to deface and break up their relationship. Tul first tries to insult Can in every possible way he can. He then tells Can about all the others Tin has been with, ("the others" sounds soooo vague and dramatic) and how Can reacts simply by pointing out that Tin isn't with them now, he is with him, and that, in the present moment, is what matters. Tul goes on to show Can a defamatory picture of Tin, and can responds by going to have Tin meet him and explain the photo to him, because Can realizes that a photo does not tell the whole story, and herein is another large turning point in their relationship as Tin finally realizes that Can is truly the only person in his life who truly believes him. Onna considers how it really isn't the action that occurs, it is really the reaction to an action that really matter--that really count and how the way things appear are seldom the way they truly are. Also, the fact that Tin and Can both know that they are going to stay together for the long term also enables them to say things that couples who would not be long term might not say/discuss because they do realize they need to to have their relationship last. There is also a short part of this episode featuring Ae, Tum, and another music student who meet up to discuss Ae and Pete's relationship and turning their story into a song, which leads into a side note on how this series is a compliment to the Tharntype series and how these two series create a not so small franchise. This episode then concludes with Tul sending Can an inappropriate video clip and Can goes over and punches Tul in the face and how Onna posits that Tul's actions are mostly going to come to light and how just because someone is unhappy is a very lamo reason to attempt to make everyone else's lives a living hell. It's all here. It's all real.

In this episode of Check It/Round Table Onna discusses Love by Chance 2, Episode 9 and how this episode features Tin and Can and their relationship as it progresses and also has a side note with Ae and as he reaches out to Pete.  Onna considers how Can though not particularly bright, at all, he does seem to mature intellectually as he spends more time with Tin.   Onna considers the confusing scene at the football field and how it ends with the members of the Team clapping and saying they are proud that Can admitted he liked Tin in front of them in a very comedic way.  Onna digresses into the cuteness of the character of Can and of the actor Plan, this is not meant in a weird way, he just is super funny and cute in his facial expressions and delivery.

The one shining moment of Can's sister is shown in this episode although it would be more shining if she was not wielding a paring knife.  Can's sister does let Can know that though he wasn't the type of person she saw with Tin, Tin picked Can and Can is her brother and ergo, she will support him because of who he is to her.  Onna considers how Tin's brother Tul is an angry, sexually frustrated (no-offense here--just true), and is bent on destroying Tin because he thinks with Tin gone from the picture his life will be good, which is not of course the same thing, but as the maker of his own world and his creation of his world as one without exits or the belief that things can be good.

Onna continues the discussion with how Love by Chance 2 also shows a side of Tin that existed before he was betrayed by Tul, and the Tin of that era was naive and trusting, and in many ways, he was a lot like Can, which in many ways might indeed be why he appreciates Can and his personality.  Also, the feature of Ae and his ability to move forward with his care and love for Pete with the distance and his lack of control as Pete moved to France and cut contact, he knew he could not change that fact, but he could determine his reaction to those facts by deciding to post once a day to Facebook and continuing to do so in the spite of the naysayers.  Onna considers how the fact that Ae will do things, even if they are indeed quite difficult because they might help him to reach Pete.  Onna concludes with how  Love by Chance and Love by Chance 2 are based off of a book, Accidentally I Love You, and why this was one of the most inappropriate books and was a travesty of infinite proportions and was not at all like the series as it was extremely adult in content and also quite odd as arranged in a series of blurbs poorly translated into English without illustrations.  It's all here.  It's all real.

In this episode of Check It/Round Table Onna discusses Love by Chance 2, Ep8, a Thai BL drama series in review and how though this is not a kid-friendly series, she still enjoys this series and this particular episode and though this does have some physical relationship issues discussed and portrayed, it is one of the few shows that Onna did not feel the need to skip/FF through any of this episode.    This episode shows how Tin and Can remedy their relationship issues because Can realizes that Tin will be there for him and not be disappointed in him despite the losses that Can has experienced and will experience.  After this realization, Tin takes Can out to dinner and Can asks to spend the night with Tin so he can forget the issues of the day and just wants a relationship and Tin refuses to have a relationship with Can based only on these two reasons but based on something more solid and for better reasons.  This scene concludes with Can and Tin deciding to be in a relationship but with the caveat that Tin is only with Can from here on out in their lives.

There is also a minor digression in this episode with Ae who while the team is celebrating their loss where he asks himself if Pete will wait for him to be successful, because he knows that though his relationship with Pete is currently severed, that it will, in the end work out.

The poignant and thoughtful moment in this episode, there is a scene where Tin and Can are discussing how Can is not good looking, is not from a wealthy family, and is also stupid, and Tin simply says that does not matter to him and never does, and with this in mind, Tin then asks Can again to be his boyfriend.  Can then apologizes for refusing to be Tin's boyfriend earlier, which caused both of them pain and this realization shows growth in the character of Can.  This scene concludes with Tin saying "That was then, how about now?" and Can replies, "Will you be my boyfriend, my spoiled prince, " and the two of them realize that they can now laugh at what was a difficult moment for both of them earlier.

The story progresses with Can returning home and having his sister and mom ridicule him and make stabs, though inadvertent, concerning he and Tin's relationship and his friends at college follow suit, though inadvertent.  This reaches a climax when Can and Tin approach the football field and see Ae, Lemon, Can's sister, and Chompoo, the idiotic girl who wants to give  Ae cookies of solace in the hopes of winning him over in his hour of hardship after his breakup with Pete--Ae takes the cookies and tries to avoid the annoyance.  This scene concludes with Can kissing Tin in front of the entire football  team, his sister, and Can's sister, Lemon, as he is very aggravated and sick of his sister asking Tin who his romantic interest is.
