listen… i can imagine the gay community isn’t big compared to the country’s population… and the ones willing to go on tv show is even smaller…. but STILL with over 120 million people living in Japan it’s just really hard to believe that so many of them already knew each other and coincidentally met there. truly, what a destiny huh! it’s such a bad and lazy move on the production’s side imo because what’s the point of the reality dating show if half the people already have a history? it’s just like one of the participants said about William and Izaya - how can you compare with that?I was so excited about this season but so far it’s been really disappointing :(

I didn’t expect to cry but when Taehoon was leaving I just couldn’t stop myself 😭 I wish him the best, such a beautiful soul. And the way he teased Shun about his attitude like a big brother was so cute haha.

This show is really special. it’s not only making you want to fall in love but also teaches empathy and how precious the connections you’re making with other people are. Even if they’re very brief. And maybe I’m being dramatic but I really feel like I’ve grown with them, they made me want to be a bit braver in life. Especially when Kazuto said “I want to be more like Alan” I was like, yeah, same. He’s a great guy, so loving and kind and you can tell he gives the best hugs ❤️‍🩹

now, fingers crossed for the next season hopefully🤞

for me it's the subtitles not showing up. it just says "unnable to connect to sever", whatever that means. anyone also have that problem?

constantly comparing this season to the previous ones (especially s2) is pointless. imo each season stands on its own since it gathers a completely different group of people and dynamics. sure, you could like the previous contestants more and that’s fine, but it doesn’t automatically make the whole season bad. you can’t fully predict things like this when preparing a dating show.
i’m really enjoying this season, it’s emotional, messy, imperfect. and that’s what a reality show should be all about. you won’t get a straight out of kdrama love story or deeply bonded friendships from the get-go each time and it’s okay too 🤷‍♀️

Hwi was so funny for his plan to seduce Jaesung to get Seungmin back lol

usak is such a sweetheart, i'm so sad :( he really grew on me. with each episode he was showing more sides of himself. even if he wasn't there for a long time you can tell some change happened in him and i hope he will believe in himself more. his personality is very different than what he's showing on stage and that's probably why he's so self-consious. perhaps he feels like he's disappointing people because they already have some expectations of him. i wish him the best tho, he has this calm and humble aura about him. i think it's really charming.
i also love how vulnerable his goodbye speech was , the way they cried together and appreciated each other was so special. and the drawings??? AGHHH how can a 36yo guy be so cute omg!!

yes, the way he put it, It could be that. but it also could mean a bi man with a strong preference for men. maybe he’s more demisexual when it comes to his interactions with women, he needs to be emotionally connected with them first in order to feel sexual attraction. i agree he seems like a player, but in this case it might also just be a poor choice of words

exactly. we shouldn’t throw such strong words as “pedophile” at someone without actually knowing the whole context of the situation

I NEED MIKEJIM SPIN-OFF ASAP

i totally agree. even before the anonymous questions that upset YJ, he was already mean to MK without a reason. as if he constantly tries to pick a fight. from what we saw, it seems like he knows he was at fault in the past too but he’s trying to flip the narrative on MK to make him more of the bad guy here

that’s really well said. thank you for sharing this! i was also ghosted by someone i really liked and till this day i wonder if there was something i did wrong. even so, i still have a soft spot for this person, maybe because of the unanswered questions, so i totally understand MK. the way i see it, no matter what stage of relationship they were on, MK deserved some kind of closure. even if as simple as “let’s stop seeing each other”. some people don’t realize how hurtful ghosting actually is

damn i feel so bad for myeongkyun. only both of them know what really happened so i don't want to judge any side, plus they really don't know how to communicate so it's a mess and i get their frustration. BUT i do have to say that i'm more on MK side. YJ is just too agressive, the way he was screaming and talking over MK was sooo uncomfortable. and saying that he hates MK in front of others? yikes

i’d rather have 8 episodes of well thought out story than 12 episodes just for the sake of it. truth is most of these dramas could easily set for 8-10 episodes but they decide to extend them, which often leads to dragging out the story without any meaning and losing its quality. let’s wait and watch first

totally!! he looks so good in glasses i was like damnn 👀and hopefully he will go on a date with Usak like he wanted, they would be cute together

also, i would love to see more of taeheon. each time i hear him talk i think that he seems like a very down to earth guy, easy to open up to

i’m rooting for shun & dai but i feel like at some point dai might lose his patience or grow frustrated since shun isn’t exactly easy too read. like that ending was totally unexpected. he’s also a bit cold towards dai but i guess that’s cause he’s being cautious, which is understandable. still, i hope they will be able to work it out in the end bcs the chemistry is definitely there

true, Ming saying this is definitely ironic. i don’t think he should even get a second chance to begin with since he pretty much always cared only about himself, but well.
and yes, i get it that it’s a full circle but it still bugs me that we didn’t get to see Joe actually growing out of constantly focusing on pleasing others and try to live his life since he got the chance. at some point it seemed like he was close to that but i guess Ming is too much of a weak spot for him, sadly

"Joe, how long are you gonna be the good guy?” I didn’t think I would ever agree with Ming so much lol. I adore you Joe but you seriously need to grow a pair 💀how are you putting yourself in such situation TWICE? for the people who stabbed you in the back? cmon, that’s just so frustrating.
also, even at this point in the series I can’t bring myself to like Ming or feel sorry for him, so I don’t really care if they end up together (which I’m sure they will anyway). I just want Joe to have some rest for once, LET THE GUY BREATHE

like someone here already said, Seongmin is giving Minsung from s2. it seems like he himself wants to explore other people (and that’s fine) but at the same time he expects the ones that are interested in him to only stick to him and not anyone else. I mean he gets kinda annoyed when Jaesang says that he isn’t sure about his feelings for him and I’m like.. well what did you expect? he didn’t call him back and then avoided him so it’s understandable that JS can have mixed feelings about him. I think it’s absolutely okay that Seongmin wants to try dating other people, that’s what the show is for, but he should have the same energy when it comes to ppl he’s dating. It just annoys me when in love triangles there’s this one person who can’t make up their mind and simultaneously expects the ones who showed some type of interest to be 100% about him till the end. sorry but that’s just giving selfish, they can have their doubts as well 🤷‍♀️

oh, i’m absolutely in love with Poom. the way he portrays Joe’s emotions feels so genuine, he’s so talented (and insanely gorgeous wth). he for sure stands out among other actors i’ve seen in BLs so far and i would love to see him in another queer drama in the future 🤞
