I feel like pirating media that isn’t sold or offered anywhere legally anymore shouldn’t be called piracy. Girl thats archaeology

Oh Thame my sweet summer child.

He asked Po to Netflix and chill and he literally watched Netflix. 😅

Po even tried to make ramen! That's TWO "let's have sex" signals. Come on Thame get with the program!

Jun's expression. Priceless. 🤣

Why are you laughing? I miss you. I miss you too.

[ryuutales]

You finally won a music show. You should’ve gone out to eat with your members instead. They said if we get an all-kill, we’ll celebrate all at once later, so I told them I’d go to see you first.

ThamePo EP 8 long analysis

First of all, I have to voice what I love about ThamePo the series: Thame is very mature and emotionally intelligent. He always communicates when a problem arises and insists on clearing things up. He made clear that Jun is his friend and he does not want to sacrifice a friendship over love but at the same time emphasises that he truly loves Po and will not give up on his feelings. He can value both. I cannot recall a character making this option available and communicating this so clearly. He also told Po to stop accepting everything and instead speaking up when something is bothering him. This is especially important to Po who has been taken advantage of in the past. Thame asks Po to make direct requests of what he wants, so he will do his best to fulfill them. This was better than any love confession because in the end, this is what love is about.

However, Thame's maturity clashes hard with Jun avoiding confrontation and conflict. At this point Jun's character just seemed badly written next to Thame. His actions are neither logical nor genuine. He claims all of his flirting with Po was to make sure that Thame really has feelings for Po. That was a blatant lie and complete nonsense. How does this help Thame understand his feelings? The whole jealousy part is not needed and even if, Jun saw Thame's jealousy and anger, that should have been the end of it. Instead, he actively flirted with Po, signalling his interest by constantly showing up. Why would he be at the cinema, why would he take Po to that private room in the bar, sing to him while holding his face? Po had already clearly stated several times that he liked Thame. It rather seems like Jun actually liked Po and the second he realised that Jun would lose this because Thame and Po had mutual feelings, he withdrew.

I feel sorry if Jun is just heartbroken because of his unrequited feelings but his actions were quite harmful. He risked his friendship with Thame and at that also the unity of MARS just to "make sure Thame had real feelings and treated Po right"? That sounds ridiculous. He forcefully interrupted Thame and Po's time with each other in person, interrupted their phone calls by taking Po's phone, by trying to convince Po that Thame was not interested in him although it was pretty clear that it was not the case. He saw that flirting with Po and getting in between them was hurting Thame and he continued to do it. That is not what a friend would do. I'm sorry but that was the most unconvincing "plot twist" I have ever heard. This was supposed to be the big surprise of "Hey Jun has once again been the good guy all along". No. No he wasn't. He mistreated his friends and disrespected Po and played with his heart and feelings. That was absolute trash behaviour and cannot be excused. I will wait for his development in further episodes but even if Jun admits he did this because he was jealous/into Po and hoped he could have a chance, it was still not okay.
