This was sweet. the story isn't anything new. FWB to loving couple. but the chemistry and visual pairing of the leads made it worth the watch. theyre also good actors, so it makes for a lighter fun binge watch. sad to know this was their only show but wishing them both the best!
Aside from the clear audio issues for the 2nd half of the show and some sloppy writing, the series isn't all that…
Still not ready. I have it paused on episode 13 where they say that P'Pai asked Sky to wait in the condo and I'm so nervous to watch how it goes down. but fck both those losers. ugh the sexual and mental abuse on this made me want to reach through the TV and just punch him in the throat 😮💨
Aside from the clear audio issues for the 2nd half of the show and some sloppy writing, the series isn't all that bad. First half was a pretty straightforward first/true love story with some chasing and push and pull. Nothing crazy. 2nd half I really felt bad for Sky. And as someone else mentioned, lol Peat and his roles always have some type of disorder, give the man a break LMAO and let him be a happy confident guy for once haha and have him chase Fort. 🤣 (not counting psychotic Kelvin iykyk)
But honestly, I was invested more in the FortPeat story. It was still a simple story of rich boy chases normal guy. Normal guy resists because of past trauma but I think they pulled this off well. Their interactions and acting melded well here. I actually still haven't finished Love Sea, not sure why, but I just couldn't keep going. But here, I was fully invested in seeing how Sky heals because he was really making me scared to continue watching. I was pausing the show at times and was like, I'm not ready for what comes next.
just started this cause I was out of PPW dramas and saw clips of Diesel online. I must say, Phuwin playing a confident cocky character works sooo well. like hes cute and such with his more restrained, nerdy-esque, sassy-ish characters but Diesel is so naturally acted. really need him in a similar confident, red flag optional, role in a BL haha
Finally finished! the political side was lacking engagement somehow. it just felt a bit flat. but the post credits was cute. imagine all of these formidable people fighting on one side against a different antagonist or maybe even the current emperor to have Qi Min take the throne. and lol poor Qi Min retching every time Qianqian comes near cause she poisoned him in a different lifetime LOL also, Yu Bao'er doesnt exist 😭 and they didn't show Ning either. I wonder if Wei Yan and Consort Qi didn't have a 2nd child in this timeline. but 8.7 from me. strong start to the middle and then it really fell flat once it got to the palace intrigues.
I'm on ep36 and Qi Min's obsession with Qianqian is unmatched LOL i don't know if I've seen another person in cdramas that obsessive yet also not violent towards that person. lol he kills and physically hurts everyone else but her no matter how how she has betrayed him. lol and its not as though she doesnt make it clear but he takes her back each time he finds her after she escapes. his obsession is real. lol in another drama, in different circumstances, they would've made a great couple. sadly, that is not this drama as hes completely black flag and she only pities him.
we finished this unhinged and nonsensical ride, folks!!
sorry not sorry, but that was a weak af torture from Ken to Kelvin & Vier. like, please Ken, I could do better (jk, folks). but seriously, not to be that guy, but i would've like to see Kelvin suffer juuuuuuuuust a bit more for all of his wrong doings. lol Vier was at least kicked and kinda beat up by Ken at the beginning, yet Kelvin just got a kick to the shin and tied up. 😮💨 Ken out here still being dumb af but now he's also got dumb Lavid being stupid too. I swear, no ones got brains in this show except psychopath Kelvin and cold queen Lalyn lol honestly, with how easily Lavid gets fooled and just listens and trust what others are saying baffles me. aren't you a psychiatrist bro? does Ken seem trustworthy to believe in for you? like sir? where are your judgements and perception skills? 😮💨
was that Ken and Lavid at the end? both out of jail already? or did Ken never get caught and never went to jail? lol is Lavid gonna kill Ken? special episode time?
FortPeat NC never disappoints, so no comment except that doing it in the gym seems a wee bit dangerous haha
Vier forgiving Kelvin for that scar confession isn't surprising. man already forgave him for a lot of things, so whats one little scar now that hes seeing him through rosy pink glasses again.
sorry not sorry, but Kelvin is probably my fave character in the show HAHAHAHAHAHA I wish there was a bit more story to give him a better redemption arc, but I'll take it for what it is. I feel like hes the only one that really had any character development. Vier went from playboy-ish to boy in love real fast and then kinda just stayed there. Lalyn and Nana stayed the same from the beginning. they were a cute couple, but I think the acting for Nana wasnt the best. sometimes it really took me out of the show like she was just saying her lines without any real emotions. that could be said for a few folks in the show, but for them specifically as a couple, it really took away from how much better it could've been.
overall, a fun unhinged rollercoaster full of bumps and we may have fallen off the tracks completely, but its okay. lol we've somehow landed safely on the ground 🫣
I hesitantly started after reading some of the comments. was missing PondPhuwin haha and it's not that bad so far. Phuwin has such a baby face here compared to now. boy really glowed up. can't comment on chemistry yet, but im kinda loving Phuwin's acting LOL a little overdramatic but it looks like that's what the vibe is going for. so far, so good. can already tell its comedic and will have lots of 2nd hand embrassment moments 🤣
on episode 9 and its kind of cute that his band mates were like, you JUST watched a movie and they walked him through it all 🤣 cause we know for sure he won't need any help with it in You Maniac. 🫣
Is this really a 6.7? I really miss Boom and his acting and wanted to give this a chance, but this rating scares me. lol I don't think I've watched anything below a 7..... and most of those were Chinese short dramas that you expect to me bad lol
Can someone please explain to me what happened to this pairing like im 5. Why is everyone saying their ship sank?…
yes, I think it's worth watching. honestly probably my highest rated BL. I enjoyed the plot, the chemistry, and the acting - which I find to be lacking in a lot of other BLs now that I've been on a binge for a bit now haha
FortPeat NC scenes are great, but the acting or directing is lacking here. I don't feel immersed in the story or care for the characters which is funny cause I totally want to know what happens to Vier and Kelvin in Yesterday 🤣 will put this on hold for now and come back and finish the last half when the feeling arises. haha
