Wow! That was a long episode. The first part alone lasted more than half an hour, and in total the whole thing came in at just over 90 mins. That's standard movie length!

Chief kind of looked like a widowed hornbill perched up on the hill mourning the loss of his mate at the end there. I really wish he had asked Tian what Tian wanted instead of just assuming like Tian's Dad that Tian would be happiest in Bangkok.
The scenes in the hospital were on point - I was kind of falling (again) in love with Earth too.
I suspect all of the scenes in the promo for next week will take place in the first few minutes of the episode as Tian leaves the village. Then he will return to Bangkok, get some real teaching certification in order to return to the village as their new teacher.
Edited to add - I think everyone needs a Dr. Nam in their lives. He must have done a rotation in pysch - as he has been Th relationship counseling all along with Chief, but now has placed Tian under his wing too.
Also, when Tian's dad calls Chief Pupha by his name - all I can say is that it did not sound like how I would have phonetically pronounced it at all - sounding less like a "u" and more like an "oo". I guess it was a night for toilet humor between that and the awful scene in Lovely Writer with Tum dropping his cellphone.

I find it ironic that Phupha keep saying he wants Tian to live his life and not let others make the decision for him, yet he keep making decision for Tian. Like distancing from him, removing him as the volunteer teacher, etc...

They waited really late to post the premiere links and I have family visiting tomorrow so have been a bit busy with some housecleaning Hopefully they will post the English subs srt files earlier - last week the first clip didn't have subs after the premiere until the third clip premiered. As my reward for housecleaning will be to relax with those clips later this afternoon.

Gah! Part 4 doesn't have subtitles!
They've already been torturing us throughout this last episode with sadness, near-misses and one moment where I literally shouted at the screen "TURN AROUND!" and now we've got to wait to find out what they are saying. I've stopped the video but all I'm seeing in the live chat are weepy emojis and broken hearts... yikes! That thumbnail pic for the last part better be the ending or else I'll be throwing hands!
In the meantime here's a new OST of the theme song sung by Earth:
EDIT - Although the song is released by GMMTV Records and the video was released on the GMMTV YT channel, they've still had to take it down because of a copywrite claim by one31. Weird!
I wonder if this will count as a copywrite strike against GMMTV?!

Well this may have become my favorite BL, sure the first 3 parts of the finale left me wondering whether it wasn't going to have a happy ending, but boy did it deliver in the last part. Earth and Mix had excellent chemistry - while they held out to almost the very end for a kiss, it was worth it. Tien's mother's reaction at the airport was hilarious - it was pretty clear Dad was well aware of what Phupha meant to Tien (and who wouldn't be pleased to have their child bring the Chief home as their romantic partner). I really liked the way that Tien rubbed his cheek against Chief's during the hugging at the airport.
Chief - you are definitely going to need a new bed or Yod is going to know exactly what you are up to every night.
The best part - a storyline that had no need for an evil ex-girlfriend (or current girlfriend), no silly "I am only gay for you" pairings, no gay-bashing (I consider Sakda's gangsters chasing after Tien less about him being gay and much more about him costing Sakda money) and yet somehow it managed to tell an amazing story - hopefully other directors will take note.

Great finale! My only disappointment is that they waited until the very last scene of the series to show how adorable Tien and Phupha are as an actual couple. I wish we got to see more of that.

I suspect that GMMTV will likely strongly consider a special episode or 2 down the road that could explore the 2 as a couple after they have had the opportunity to live together (maybe even a wedding episode).

This has been an amazing ride. It was so nice to have a show that is so different from the usual university setting. Like the above post, it is nice that there isn't some evil girlfriend, or even evil parents.

Drake has put out a personal BTS diary with English subs. It lasts around 24 mins.
Some bits are amusing.
