sadly it's not on You tube!....guess I'll have to pay a streaming service lol......by the way where can I see…
Anyone reading this, please consider supporting them officially as much as you can. (I would recommend subscribing to their YouTube channel and paying for the access to all episodes). It would definitely help the case for a second season.
Y'all, Xia Liu Yi literally says 'wait for me to come back' and 'focus on recovering', so this isn't his first rodeo getting arrested lol. He is a powerful gang boss w connections. It is just that He Chu San is shook from seeing him get arrested for the first time lmao. In the novel from where ep 9 ends, He Chu San rushes to Cui Dong Dong's place first thing and she is like, oh he's arrested? Ah, that's another Tuesday, I'll send a lawyer over for him. Don't worry and go get some sleep.
So in the second season, they are most probably gonna focus on He Chu San trying to clean Xia Liu Yi's hands and pull him out of the swamp, which is what he says in ep 7 after watching Xia Liu Yi drive away from him.
They do change and combine a bunch of stuff from the novel so it is hard to say how they are gonna open up the second season, but obv it won't be a sad ending for our couples.
This is one of the best dramas, not only in BL category. Love the setting, the mood, lights, color palette, camera…
Right? Imo, It is high time that we step away from confining these dramas to the BL category alone and comparing the cinematography only with their other BL drama peers-- they need to be included in the same conversation as the super popular mainstream straight dramas when it comes to comparsions of writng/acting/directing/cinematography etc.
From what I have witnessed, even in my homphobic country, I am finding a lot of people know about BL dramas now compared to back in the 2010s. The BL wave took over from the mid 2010s and then really took the world by storm post 2020 onwards. So many of my friends discovered BL dramas for the first time in the pandemic.
More exposure means more fans. More fans means companies are more likely to invest more money in these shows and actually hire competent people to make it. Better props, a good supporting cast who can actually act, like all the small things that make up a show get elevated if they have enough budget. Like with Sammy's Children's day, the coloring and the mood like you said feels like such a lovely unique flavor.
I kept gasping anytime Xia Liuyi appeared on screen. He is so stunning. Especially this final episode, and especially during the kiss scene, my goodness. The blood smeared on his face and that look of feral want in his eye; wow, absolute homegrown eye candy!!
Cliff hanger aside, Liuyi and Chusan's story was really satisfying. It really is so rare to see such chemistry…
You've said it so well! Their CP dynamic feels so 'real', if that makes sense? Can't quite put a finger on what makes them so addictive and satisfying to watch when they are together. I think it's because their chemistry is so electric despite being two characters who couldn't be more different from each other at first glance.
Honestly, I wouldn't dream of comparing this to the on1y one. The main CP in this acknowledge each others feelings this season unlike in the on1y one lol! Even if it ends on a cliffhanger now, the novel does give us a happy ending and they'll definitely stick to that, whether it's in the form of a new season or extra episodes. Don't cause unnecessary panic on social media. Focus on supporting the cast and crew in any way possible so they can make more.
With the budget and production they had, I can tell the team put a lot of care and effort to keep things tightly paced while also not rushing it, and I really respect that they chose to adapt this story in particular. Even if there are some issues whether it's dubbing or something else, you can tell everyone involved really cared
I thought nothing could beat the Bad Buddy rooftop kiss for me, but this was everything. The frantic panicked expression on Liu's face as he ran was EVERYTHING, my heart pounded so hard
One of the best chemistry I've seen in a BL, they are etched in my mind. Give these two all the extra seasons and new shows. Don't let this pairing go to waste
They are just so cute and perfect together that I can't help but rewatch them and sigh The novel is also really well written. Even when they changed some plot stuff from the novel in the series, the actors really embodied the characters from the novel
I may be in the minority here, but I also want to see more of Papa He and Food Stand Auntie! They’re so cute…
I think Papa He and Food Stand Auntie are such cute supporting characters, I love how supportive Auntie is of He Chu San's university background that she comes after anyone who insults him lol
So in the second season, they are most probably gonna focus on He Chu San trying to clean Xia Liu Yi's hands and pull him out of the swamp, which is what he says in ep 7 after watching Xia Liu Yi drive away from him.
