I'm watching "Bound by Sin" because I saw it being discussed here, and I'm really enjoying it . I'm up to episode 6, and unfortunately, the English subtitles for this episode are 3 seconds later than they should be, making it almost unwatchable. There is no way to fix this in YouTube as a viewer. I've already put a comment on YouTube and hopefully someone there will read it and fix the subtitles quickly, but I wouldn't get your hopes up. 

So I fixed them myself. I did this by downloading the episode AND subtitles to my computer. Personally I use 4K Video Downloader+ which is a commercial product. I then opened the video and the subtitles in a subtitles editing program. I use "Subtitle Edit", which is a free program to bring all subtitles forward by 3 seconds.

Anyone who has at least an average level of computer literacy should be able to do this as well. However, if you need help or want me to send you the edited subtitle file, just let me know. 

I've just checked, and the subs for ep. 6 on KissKH are in sync.

Ah, that's a relief 😌 

Bound by Sin - Ep 4 (could've sworn we were on ep 5 but we are not xD)

  1. Not her openly flirting with ML while her fiance is right there. Yas girl, assert your dominance 
  2. It's morning, why are they drinking wine?? Why is girl making moves IN BROAD DAYLIGHT
  3. Cuffs him to the flimsiest branch ever. Yes girl, he's not going ANYWHERE
  4. SHE JUST WENT TO SLEEP- IM SOBBING
  5. The tension between them is very nice, I'm ngl
  6. Not pookie getting angry and yanking at the branch when he can just... slip out... Oh pookie, u aint fooling anybody with this angsty yelling
  7. "What exactly does she want?" - God, if only we could know, ML... It's not like she's out here spelling it out for you
  8. Ah, so it was to test his stamina... He's an ex-military, I think you're good T_T
  9. She really told him not to give in to her too quickly cuz she'll lose interest, lmfaaoooo 
  10. Simply cannot escape a FL being bridal carried in a cdrama, huh.... *sigh* I appreciate the twist and her not being surprised by it and rather being the one to demand it tho (and her kissing his neck is just mmmmm)
  11. I appreciate the subtly disclosed consent. ML knows what he's here for 🔥
  12. Yes ML, you're really showing her with that (kitty) glare while you do exactly what she asks!
  13. We really can't get a minute of silence between them, huh? Minute 9 now and we've had song after song blasting in my ear T_T
  14. "If you only wanted a bodyguard you wouldn't have to spend so much money" -Hehehehe, babygirls are expensive
  15. Girl slept, woke up, flirted, went back to sleep, took a bath, went back to sleep- o-o what was the reason for him coming there... What was the reason for any of this? \
  16. "Will he fall in love with his half-sister" - GIRL I HOPE TF NOT!!T_T Why are you flirting with your potential half-brother tho....??
  17. Wait, the fiance's side chick actually used her natural voice when she got mad with him :O I was not expecting that.
  18. FL pinching the bridge of her nose when she hears about her little brother is the most sibling thing ever. Just pure disappointment
  19. So apparently all the Jiang siblings have a habit of falling in love with atypical partners- That's kinda cute
  20. "I'm not a playgirl" - Uhhhhhhh, who's gonna tell her?
  21. "She is a strange person" Bro got flashbacks when he said that
  22. Wait, so the uncle is completely in the know about ML's dynamic with FL? ACK- Sir, you were supposed to look after your nephew and niece, not do THIS
  23. Why is everyone selling ML? First his uncle, now his employer. FL always first in line to buy, lmao
  24. Stop, his little look of surprise when FL agrees to the payment is SO CUTE

Bound by Sin - Episode 4

Warning about the GIFs again.

I watched this like 4 days ago, made the GIFs, and then didn't get around to write anything until now. 😭

  • I can't from the way that she handcuffed him to a literal plant that he could very easily break or just slip the other part of the cuffs from the leaf but he really just sat there ashsvkgls
  • some gifs of our ML as promised. <3 I have to say I really liked seeing this side of him. 🤭 I love his facial expression when he tears the rose and drops the petals.
  • I'm sorry, half-brother?? Girl, how can you act towards him like that when there's a chance that you might be half-siblings?! Umm...
  • Not butler Fu appearing again to conspire. xD at least he had more lines now. 
  • I love when women wear some traditionally masculine attire but add their own spin to it, like the FL does with the outfits in her office and at the ball.

  • I always loved the white shirt, dark vest and tie combo <3

    the contrast between the high slit of her skirt and the suit-like top. also i love the sleeves *chef's kiss*
  • Omg the FL buying the ML like that. That check is so pretty though.

  • "I appreciate the subtly disclosed consent. ML knows what he's here for 🔥" Yes, exactly this! Sometimes I feel like the drama could very easily slide into the dub-con/non-con territory so it's nice to see this. 
  • "Wait, the fiance's side chick actually used her natural voice when she got mad with him :O " Omg I just went back to rewatch that scene and yes! Also the dress he gave her looked so uglyyyy.

I came across this cheating mini drama (10mn) with a lovers to enemies trope.  I liked it a lot. I liked the way FL takes revenge.  I think it is RR. 

=>  FL is smart and ML is gullible ( his mother). FL is a businesswoman (bread winner) and ML is a househusband raising their daughter. 

Women's choice  (2023): 

The same actress frome "Scent of new dawn" is also featured in this drama.
I had a good time watching it  but it is not a romance. Although there is romantic and steamy scenes because it is a cheating show.
I liked to watch this cheater get what he deserved.

Hey friend, can we resume watching An Ancient Love Song? I know we put it on hiatus for a bit because I was working on the side quest, but I haven't had the time to work on editing it due to work, and I miss our queen fl. I've been thinking about this drama a lot over the weekend, and I need to watch it.

If you're up for it, here are our previous notes as a refresher.

Your note: Episode One, Response to my episode one notes and your notes for Episode Two, Additional Comments on episode one and two

My notes: Episode One, Episode Two notes / Responding to your notes for  Episode Two


p.s I will post my notes for Bound by Sin - Episode 4 tomorrow!

I'm watching Goukon ni Ittara Onna ga Inakatta Hanashi

It's so funny, the MLs are adorable and stupid, I love them. The FLs are so cool. I love comedic, dumb characters

  • "I'm sorry, half-brother??" - That's what I was thinking too!! T_T Bruv
  • "Not butler Fu appearing again to conspire" - This man shows up, stirs the pot then leaves. What a diva
  • "but add their own spin to it" - Saaaame, peak class!
  • "That check is so pretty though." - It really is actually xD

Reply to your reply

  • "Also the dress he gave her looked so uglyyyy." - Wasn't it a dress FL previously wore? o-o What did bro do to it?

Sounds like it could be extremely promising, what a shame they just had to make it into a cheating drama... Ugh... It's actually not even uncommon to see cheating tropes in the breadwinner FL/househusband ML dynamic either but I will refrain from venting my frustrations on the topic further xD

I remember seeing that cover (I think it was on pinterest) and running to MDL only to immediately get the ick T_T Regardless, thanks for the recc ^^

Yaaaayyy! Glad you're enjoying it so far! I love the character's dynamics

I really need to get back to that drama at some point, hehe

Thank you for the rec, it looks interesting!! I added it to my watchlist. 😊 I'm starting to warm up to j-dramas (they are usually a complete hit or miss for me lol) but this one looks promising. I love dumb, comedy characters too!

I was like where to watch this, then I learned that Furritsu subbed it too. She's like an angel, always coming to save me lol. :D 

Also I love how both of the top reviews for the drama are like "If you're bisexual, you must watch this!!"

 Arclei:

Yay! I'll be joining in as well so let me know when it's resuming so I can watch the first two eps and join the fun.

Having spent some time on RR and bi_irl reddits, I've seen some similarities between the two, masculine women and feminine men seem to be a common thing in both


 Alex:

They're so dumb you can't help but love them

 Arclei:

Me too, I love the pairings, their vibes go so well together

 Alex:

Just be warned it's a "heavy on the slapstick cringe" kinda Jdrama xD 

 Alex:

It is true!! The women are super cool and the boys are super cute, what more can one want? Like, those ladies had me swooning fr

We'll probably be resuming this week but you can go ahead and watch the first two eps already so we can continue at the same pace when we do! ^^

ok, so I will watch episode 3 tonight!
