I’m Respect the Petty, and I love colors. I’m on my own little mission to annoy all of y’all about how colors, lighting, barriers, clothing, and other visuals enhance QLs and add depth to the story.
For those of you who keep asking me for a “Master List” (bleh!) since apparently it takes too much time to scroll through my insane amount of posts because I don't know how to stfu, here it is! Plenty of posts didn't make the cut simply because there is a limit, so I included the ones that delivered the most features from above, and if you search my tags by the series' titles, other posts regarding the show's colors should be able to be found.
The goods are below the cut 👇🏿
A quick overview of what I do and what the colors mean
Key:
Color Coding shows the main colors associated with the characters <- most of you are here for these
Barriers examine the physical barriers that separate characters in a scene and what they represent (emotions, miscommunication, etc.)
The Clothing Tells the Plot looks at a specific clothing item in a scene
Background Noise includes various elements like barriers, clothing telling the plot, lighting showing feelings, and general details for the show
Episode Reviews cover all of the above for each episode plus my unhinged ramblings

Notes:
If a link doesn't work or goes to the wrong post, let me know
If you have an ask or a request, feel free to send me a message, but be warned that I really don't shut the fuck up about colors, so you could get a ten-page report back in response
If you write a post about colors, lighting, barriers, clothing, or other visuals, feel free to tag me
I'll update this post at the end of each month depending on what discoveries I've made during that month (Updated: 4/15)
Now that you know who I am, remember that a world without colors is a world devoid of emotions and feelings, so embrace the magic and follow me down this chaotic path of visual rhetoric.

Maybe it's because Lost to Light is only five episodes or maybe it's because it's color coded, but for some reason with only two episodes aired, I'm really liking this kooky little show. But then again, I do love color-coded boys in love being chaotic and messy.
And I especially like when they are adorable even during trying times like Yellow Yal Fong.
Fong isn't stressed that they will have to dance for their dinner in mascot costumes, but then again, he doesn't have to since Red Rascal Jeng is stressed enough for everyone.
While Jeng freaks out and attempts to quit sixteen times before breakfast, Purple Person Yu decides his time would be better spent making heart eyes at Blue Boy Cutter.
In fact, unlike Jeng, the other boys are so unbothered with the new directive from Boss that they are actually fighting over which color mascot they want to be, which gives them the perfect opportunity to discuss the colors!
Fong is right that purple is pretty and expensive.
But he is wrong about being the purple one.
Because obviously Fong is yellow.
Since he has flashy and cheerful energy.
So since Fong is yellow, that should make it apparent to the group who is the pretty and expensive one.
YET CUTTER THINKS YU IS RED!
And in his defense, his reasoning is solid since he believes Yu is cute, but by that logic, if Yu is cute that also means he is pretty, which would make him purple.
Yu must be purple because there is only room from one true red cutie in this group, and it's their fearless leader Jeng . . . who is about to quit and leave them to fend for themselves.
But the color-coded crew has a plan to stop him.
And that plan is to have Black Brooder Mai officially join the group, so they can finally have the missing piece they need to complete their color-coded puzzle.
They get to work immediately starting with their dance routine, but they are oddly shuttled off to a studio in the middle of nowhere to work on their moves.
When the color-coded crew starts questioning why they are sent so far away to practice, their manager almost lets it slip that Mai was a child superstar who was very close to debuting in Korea. However, it's too early in the story for that secret to be revealed.
Mai also informs the crew why they are named Ahh Wolf (since they are the "howls of love"), which everyone finds interesting that Mai knows that information, but they don't, yet they move on quickly because they have song to write inspired by the bitter melon they ate.
Everything should be great (because the boys are riding public transportation which I do not get enough of in these Thai BLs, so thank goodness someone else appreciates my love of riding the subway!), but Jeng fears he has no real place in the crew since everyone has a job: Fong is the dancer, Cutter is the rapper, Yu is the main singer, and it seems like Mai is the leader, which leaves him as the odd man out.
But Mai immediately slides into flirt mode and lets the crew know "he can be any position," and now everyone within a 30-mile radius can see that Jeng is already planning their wedding.
Since the boys are without a budget for a stylist, Mai and Jeng decide to go pick out outfits together, and Mai continues his mission to woo Jeng by wearing Jeng's red color under his black jacket.
And while the boys are having their not-date date, Boss is wearing the most horrifying knock-off Power Ranger costume to spy on his ex's business.
Good thing his ex is still smitten and finds his goofy little shenanigans funny because I think Boss scared all the kids away with that costume of terror.
But back to the youths, specially the Blue Boy and Purple Person who are late to meet Mai and Jeng, but it's because they are busy trying to give me a new color-coded pair since Yu directly asks Cutter if he likes him because Yu has been noticing that Cutter keeps worrying about him.
THE ANSWER IS YES and these two skip all the bases so they can get down to business. The business of making love that is.
Which is exactly what Black Brooder Mai is also trying do with Red Rascal Jeng now that the boys have picked out outfits for each other. Thankfully, a giant stuffed octopus adds to their romantic escapade.
Love is in the air, and it's not just because of the hearts that are floating everywhere around the boys.
No, it's because the shared love of music brings people together.
The opening credits showed that Phatsa's scent will probably be something flowery ("Luminous Shower").
Nakhun's opening credit has him with the liquor bottle and fire which is his scent, "Midnight Distillery," so the liquor is probably whiskey (scotch) since it has a smokey flavor from the wood fire to burn the peat.
And Nakhin's scent is "Nocturne de Fleur" which is an actual perfume made up of mandarin oranges and apricot blossoms.
Sangneua's is "Bare Petals" which are pink rose petals.
So I'm guessing Naphitch's scent, "Quiet Heat," will have something to do with water since that was what was in his box (and the brothers seem to have something going with the elements: fire, earth, and water).
And Ongsa, the beta, might even have a scent since butterflies were flying around him.
Which means just like Desire, their scents are probably color coded.

i didn't actually think it was possible for the subs to be this bad. like it's not that i didn't believe people but how can i understand thai better than whatever was generating these. and in places it's just summarized? like they say three sentences but it translates one. you can especially tell when 'alpha' or 'omega' are said but then that part of the sentence is just missing. not to mention the pronoun and verb tense roulette
tbh "neck arrangements" had me laughing. as much as i'd love to see what other entertaining phrases it can come up with they neeeeed to do something about this

Akki and Toto (the two people who were actually punched) stopping everything to check on the people who were absolutely not punched because they are, unfortunately for them, enormous simps.
Fang Chi. Fang Chi? Fang Chi. Are you afraid? Fang Chi. Zhang Zhun. You're drunk. We're not filming right now. Are you afraid? No. I can't. That means you're willing. Zhang Zhun, wake the hell up. I'm Zhen Xin, not Fang Chi.

What do you want me to say? You want me to say that a servant took advantage of his master? That I didn’t know my place? That I thought of you in an inappropriate way? So that you can be disgusted by me even more?
