omg my hate for Tong just rises by each episode. I know in my gut that he is using every single moving being in…
I think he's jealous of Ming's closeness to 2nd Joe like he was with the 1st and using the ex-boyfriend to make either Ming dislike Joe. 2 for his apparent cheating or make Joe 2 fall for the ex again and get out of Ming's life.
I regret that I must put this series on hold until all the episodes are available. I understand that the mother's…
I've come to realise that Joe is simply not that smart. Couple that with his still lingering feelings for Ming and a lack of solid support system to guide him in this mess and he ends up doing this to himself.
Ming is the real bastard though, he saw someone desperate and proceeded to take advantage of them without an ounce of shame. Pure hearted Joe stands no chance against that smart psycho.
Well explain because I honestly do not understand and would love to.
There were hints of it so I'd agree with your take but this could've been portrayed so much better and clearer. A lot of these could've been portrayed better starting from Day and Nights bad relationship. Her mother's accountability to it. Mhok's inner working and more focus on their journey/growth during the 3 years gap. But I think it may have been clearer in the novel and just didn't get to translate to the screen better.
Another example, what Mhok did, did hurt Day but after so much of their time and growth togather was his crime this big for a complete and utter breakup with 3 years on block list and Day even wondering if he'll get hurt again if he reconciled again?
I'm basically saying all these themes didn't come across as well as they could've. But it was still one of the best BLs Ive seen.
In the series it wasn’t mentioned In the novel when Jao met Ming for the first time he was 20 , Jao was 30after…
In the novel when Joe met him he must be 29 because after 1 year he died at 30. The exact difference is 9 years in his first life and 4 years in the 2nd per Joe's own mouth.
But I don't think the difference is that large in the series because 1) Series like to lessen the gaps aka pitbabe 2) Joe's actor is actually 2 years younger than Ming's, neither do they look much far apart in age. 3) Ming went to study in America and returned after 4 years after graduating most likely. That makes him atleast 22 at start 4) Wasn't Wut Joe's classfellow in novel whereas he is significantly older in series and even called himself Joe's senior? 5) Fifth and most important I just don't want the gap to be so large lol (real reason here lol)
For the movie taking a wild guess (as per my wish) the difference between them is not more than 5-6 first life and they are about equal in the 2nd.
I can't forgive the mother at all. How could she abandon her child like that. The son was a saint that he was still considerate of her. Honestly her actions hurt my heart.
Why were the spirits only able to possess bong gil among the other shamans. Why were the other shamans only women? Why were bong gils hands shaking during the initial meeting? And why was he the only one who had all those scriptures tattooed on him? Can anyone explain?
I didn't understand it but I guess you need to have some familiarity with the folklore and Korean history and then it works because it was obviously a hit there.
They barely managed to finish the first season with the whole cast and story upside down in the last couple episodes. And now they think second season is a good idea.
I don't think it's dragging and these last couple episodes were absolutely needed because what even happened in 14th? Everything magically went right, there was no depth to uncles story which has been hinted to be so important and things were basically happening for no reason. The couple last episodes will wrap up the mythology, the FL, uncle and first ancestors arc properly.
Ming is the real bastard though, he saw someone desperate and proceeded to take advantage of them without an ounce of shame. Pure hearted Joe stands no chance against that smart psycho.
