Quitting "My Stubborn" the second time. 🥱😅
Seriously... I tried. I am close to the end of Episode 3, just right around the same point where I quit the series months ago. Sigh. I mean... I began fast forwarding seggs scenes! I felt so NOTHING about it. Like romance was sucked out of me from some emotional vacuum cleaner!
Yes it looks all hot and steamy, but Lordylord... I feel nothing about Sorn and Jun. Like not an inkling of romance. Both are brash, hyper-acting, irrational characters, whose actions make zero sense to me. Is any of them feeling any affection for the other, for I can't tell. And everyone seems to take seggs and relationships so nilly-willy. Like Jun has this lukewarm boyfriend, whom he treats like a random stranger he just met in a hook up bar.
And then this "oh I teach you" plot. .... Seriously? Does Jun have the IQ of 30? Rrriiiiight. I am having seggs with a guy to train.... There is no character develop... can that, there is no CHARACTER I feel behind any of these actors. Sorry, if you liked it, but I feel like nothing. Nobody seems even remotely having any normal human emotion, at least as far as I can tell. I don't feel any personal interest of Jun or Sorn towards each other whatsoever. Or maybe they are the Asian face-masters of hiding, but then... what the heck is this BL even about?
I know the series is leading lists, and yes "oh it gets interesting at Episode 7"... but each episode is LONG and by now... I feel nothing about them.
"Jun, a mischievous high school boy and expert in pushing people’s buttons, and Sorn, a composed, orderly man who absolutely cannot stand kids like him, have been at odds since the day they met. From sneaking salt into toothpaste to hiding personal belongings, Jun’s endless pranks have made Sorn loathe him to the core"
Sorn is composed WHEN? What pranks did Jun make? Isn't it more the other way around Sorn is pushing Jun's buttons for no reason at least I can see.
"But fate has a sense of humor." (DO I look like I am smiling??) "When Jun unexpectedly runs into Sorn in an unusual situation, (Liike Sorn letting Jun almost DIE!) what starts as awkwardness soon becomes the beginning of a complicated connection. The man who once firmly declared, “I don’t like kids,” finds himself slowly stirred by unfamiliar emotions. From conflict to closeness, the line between annoyance and affection begins to blur."
Or like this. Jun receives a parcel from a delivery guy for someone else. Sorn: WHO WAS THIS? WHAT DID HE WANT?
I'd really want to channel my inner working class Englishman and say "Oi mate, that's none of yer bloody business, innit?"
Boy does Sorn hide these feelings well. They just push each other around like being really annoyed ALL THE TIME, and suddenly have seggs. I just raise my arms to the heavens, and like Maggie Thatcher long ago cry "NO. NO. NO."
