He knows who he is: it doesn't matter what story he is told, because he knows him already. It is so obvious that he already knows him. They just hammer it out for the slow with the story of Sisyphus and the information by the clock person.
gosh, all the experts are on this site full of their insightful and critical comments. is there a rule against…
No but some people are raised with Hollywood spelling everything out for them in bold, cue majestic music and very loud visual cues. So all storytelling in subtle symbols, artefacts and hints go completely over their head. It is common to see comments like "nothing happened" because they are used to loudly announced heros, villains an conflict so can't understand a story with relationships and implied events. It's just a lack of cinematic culture. They confuse their limitations to understand, with the limitations of the story.
I love Chinese BL, but this one is so weak. The acting is good, but the plot is weak. You don’t just let a random…
You aren't paying attention if you think he's a random stranger. There's a lot that's very obvious about this story. I wonder why people aren't seeing the obvious. Do you all really need everything spelt out in bold? I mean look at the guys face when he sees him and when he finds him again later. There's a locked room. The place is done to the "random strangers" taste, he suddenly gave his house a makeover and did everything himself, he has clothes for him . Then in the third episode he spells it out in bold for those slow to catch on.
Sounds like the typical comment of someone used to being spoonfed drama fastfood. Of course something happened. He crossed over, he found out he's in a parallel universe, he found that a particular person in that world is meaningful. He finds the magical object that binds them together. He bonds with the person, established a life, catches feelings, realises his feelings. The beauty of the story though is the unsaid thing we can obviously feel is there. The locked room, the hinted at purpose, the myth of Sisyphus, that maybe even if something is purposeless or predestined to fail you'd rather suffer over and over than not live it again. You weren't paying attention.
there isn't even a cast list 😂 should i or should i not give this one a try?
It is a slow series but I really like it so far. There dynamic is sweet, there's underlying angst, implied mystery bubbling up and a very charming female facilitator character. Unless you need everything to be very quick and simplified for you I'd say watch it.
Lots of subtle layers in this story about a young closeted aloof heir and a warm generous stuntman and how their love is cursed from lack of communication, assumptions, and then rebuilt after a second chance because "fate", red strings, learning and setting things right.
True, still there wasn’t a good justification for why do hoe left him lol , nd the audacity this boy had to…
Not with the level of trauma and the age he is. That is simplistic to pretend 3 months will fix it. It takes years to even get your head in the right place. Not to mention that is with real support and therapy, things not done in S. Korea. His father beat his boyfriend, another child, into a pulp, and he knows his bf did it to save him. He knows he walked away from it at first because he selfishly wanted to do the exam. How could anyone forgive themselves after that. It took me years as an adult to understand that ignoring a complicated violent situation is just one of several normal reactions to trauma. I walked past a woman on fire and ignored it. Yes I returned a minute later and still intervened but the guilt haunted me for years and this characters setup is several degrees more complex.
Blame this format on China who started it years ago and found success because they realize that people with short…
Nothing to do with short attentions spans, instead it is lack of time. Not everyone can binge 2-3 episodes of 45 min. We have jobs, kids, and little spare time, much of it on public transits.
or u can pay for subscription and watch in one go...u do understand that they make shows etc to earn money right..so…
Let's try again: if you pay, you see it as a single film in vertical format no ads. And yes, vertical filming is okay, rigidity on the other hand just makes you sound old and grumpy.
Ok if I had to wait and watch 2 minutes at a time it would have drove me nuts but luckily someone uploaded it…
To be honest you get used to it. Most of the apps compile it to it is virtually seem less so it is more like a vertical film. The issue is collecting enough credits.
Very much liked this story. I actually forgot the vertical format because I was caught up in the story. I watch the film cut of it because it flows better.
Don't waste your time with this unless you are very bored. The sets the clothes the acting and the story are pretty awful, like a cut and paste mix and match of every famous gangster bl around.
Honestly its better to keep everything professional with students. He gave him 3 books why couldn’t he wait…
Or just genuinely he likes him. Two people like each other. There is an age barrier yes, but we are taking maybe 6-7 years? And at least in most of Europe at 15 you are considered capable of sexual consent. People today see grooming in ordinary relationship that while not ideal aren't always suspicious either.
Very decent. Convincing actors, sensible dialogues, sweet story. And the filming was good enough that most of the time the vertical format didn't subtract fron the experience. Only one of the action scenes didn't work so well on the vertical format.
They didn't even discuss what happened and how they lied to each other.
You are expecting 40 year old behaviour from two characters who are 18-19-20 at the most. There behaviour is a fair reflection of their maturity. And in fact it is very mature to choose their interest over your own, or to choose not to burden another person who is already struggling. "I do this for him but if he knows he'll suffer or feel guilty so I let it go". That is as genuine and sincere from the depth of your heart as it gets. You don't need to take credit. You need them to be well. Even if you are misunderstood.
