The company have put out a 'Meet the Cast' video with eng subs.
Also, when they were asked the inevitable "will it have english subtitles" question, they answered yes, so I presume it will be accessable to a wider audience.
It's apparently going to get its premiere on GagaOOLala but no mention so far about YT despite the company having a YT channel.

The trailer doesn't seem that great, but the synopsis seems interesting. Would be interesting to have a storyline about a couple that gets back together cause you are already past the whether the other guy likes guys stage.

I'm still following this but each episode really does feel like it has barely begun before it's finished again. We get 13 mins including the theme, credits and story so far flashback, which only leaves about 8 mins of new stuff.
As for the story, I did like the way the power cut and Sung Yi's phobia brought them together in the last episode and it allowed them to have a couple of cute moments together, but the original premise of the whole story - arrogant celebrity net idol and upper class pastry chef collaborate together as a marketing strategy just makes no sense to me at all. Still, it's light and fluffy so far (unlike Kyan's attempts at making cakes!) so I'll keep watching it for now.
The OST has been released. It's sung by Cheng Chang Fan who plays Kyan.

Oh this is definitely going on the must watch right away list for now. I have to admit some cravings for both Kyan and that cake from the bet.

I caught up on episodes 3 and 4. This is a nicely done show - but way too short. All the gays need hugs. Kyan and Soda both have angst over their unrequited love; Soda's partner is afraid he is losing Soda; Soda appears to also have some parental issues on top of everything else, and Sung Yi's phobia. I am still not really convinced though that Sung Yi is all that interested in Kyan and Kyan seems to shine more in the high school scenes when paired with Soda (and it is amazing how a little make-up and a slightly different hair cut make Kyan look like a teenager instead of a 20-something adult).

Kyan's fantasy was quite nice (and Cheng Chang Fan appears to be really enjoying it), but I am on the fence as to whether Sung Yi is actually interested in Kyan or not. I liked the little bit more context than we were given for Soda's relationship with his parents.

I swear each episode is magically shorter than the last and they go by much too quickly.

I liked that Soda quickly realized that the more important person in his life was the man he planned on marrying, though I felt it was odd that Kyan and the rest were helping him find Noah in the airport and helping him set up a second proposal to Noah. Where is Taiwan's version of homeland security though - because I think if some one commandeered the public announcement system in an American airport like that, they would probably get carted off to jail quite quickly. Also, I am delighted that the cake read Merry Me instead of Marry Me!
I like this show - but I really feel that it went from being the Kyan-Sung Yi show to the Soda-Noah show about mid-way through - and as all the promotional materials kept stressing Cheng Cheng Fan's role in this show, that is quite a disappointment. By keeping the episodes so short, they have also dropped some potentially interesting storylines - like what was up with Soda's Mother. I have to wonder if the director realized that Kyan and Sung Yi didn't have much chemistry during the filming of the initial scenes and decided to change things up.
I guess episode 10 will consist of Kyan's assistant yelling at him because someone took a picture or video of Kyan and Sung Yi holding hands, followed by a wedding that strangely everyone will be at - because Noah's only friend is Justin and it appears that the only people Soda know are Kyan, Sung Yi and Sung Yi's assistant (sorry, I have no idea what her name is).
Well, I will watch it to see how it ends. I hope Cheng Cheng Fan goes on to bigger things. If there is a season 2, I will likely watch it.

I have to say that if Kyan's manager's plan was for Kyan to make a statement about not being gay at the wedding of 2 men, then it was pretty stupid - time to look for a new manager. That said, it wasn't appropriate to make the statement that he did - this is Soda and Noah's moment, not Kyan's.
Noah looked like he was ready to run away during the dinner with Soda's mother - like he was re-thinking commitment (and maybe Soda and Noah should have paused their wedding plans in order to reinvest in each other as a couple). The problems with Soda's mother were resolved way too quickly - though it was nice to have someone at the wedding other than Kyan who had known Soda longer than a couple weeks. I don't remember if Noah's one friend showed up or not.
I will give them that in the last minute, Kyan and Sung-Yi had more chemistry together than they showed through the entire rest of the show. Both actors were way too reserved and I honestly felt that Kyan couldn't stand Sung-Yi - he had way more chemistry with Soda.

To be honest, despite there being some eye candy, I often felt uncomfortable watching this series, largely due to the acting. Kyan and Justin were particularly cringeworthy...
