So much going on in this series and for me this is poorly written. They want to have reveal after a reveal after another. They want every episode to peak for each scene. All evil characters here are so powerful like there's no conscience, no justice, and no hope. I also do not like plots where the writer or the director has blessed the character/s to get away with everything with no repercussions. It's terrible.
Update:I just learned about this genre, Makjang where the plot is intentionally written this way. So I am appreciating the absurdity now. 🤣
I think because Tian Yu sent letters telling Jin Run Fa not to go to Taipei & so he stopped him from becoming…
So in effect, they copied Kimi no Nawa/ Your Name in terms of using his delayed response in the Red Mailbox, to change the A - Xiang's future. I think it was lazy to rely on that concept especially there was no distinction of time or reality. I understand that there are differences in Creative Processes but I fully grasp why some are confused like me. There's no clesr hint that this will lead to a fantasy, or did I just miss a detail?
The Marketing did a very good job of promoting Unrequited Love as BL. All the stills and trailers were hinting BL. Using Fandy as one of the protagonists, a very well-known BL actor for History2 gave false hopes. [B]allon's [L]anding is a mind conditioning title with a sublininal message that it is BL but it is NOT. For it to be marketed and classified as BL is definitely disappointing. For a story of Unrequited Love, this is just so - so. Overall, it's a meh!
That was one of the worst ways to end a plot for any series. A finale episode should always bring some closure even if you want to leave a cliffhanger. The teachers did not even have their own closure. I am aware that there will be season 2 for this show but this is terrible.
