I know this will probably be unpopular, but I kinda had some issues with Peach trying to force everything "normal/poor" on Thee. I loved how, at the beginning, he said some things and then realized it wasn't the right wording so he went back on his words and talked it out with Thee, and then tried for the whole episode to make him realize the real value of money, which is important and deep and it will definitely change Thee for the better. BUT like for example... Thee lived in a house full of comforts and you leave him to shower outside in a common/shared shower laughing because he doesn't understand the hows and whys of the real world?
.... ......... ................. (yes yes, no, I'm just sad because we didn't get a "can you help me shower" moment, let's be real XD)
Oh - and this is NOT a BL. It's a queer movie with adult characters living in the shitty world of real life: no princes, no ships and no clichèed moments. So, if you're looking for that, maybe it's not the movie for you.
Wow - this Japanese movie was so... so Japanese! It was such a raw, deep intake on a fragment of existence, a moment that somehow becomes one whole life.
I already appreciated Miyazawa Hio in other roles, he's such a talented young actor that never holds back and fully commits to his character... same we can say for Suzuki-san, he has managed to cover almost all shades of humanity with all his performances throughout his long career (Hanakimi was almost 20 years ago, omg!!) - that to say, the acting is so ALIVE, detailed and heartfelt.
While watching this I felt as if I was sharing the protagonist's turmoils, be it good vibes or be it dramatic moments - it was like intruding in their thoughts and lives. And when they reached happiness, from that point onward I felt like watching a horror movie and I was expecting everything to break, to explode, one second or the other. That happines, for both of them, felt too beautiful to be real.
When you live your whole life without being whole, as they both did, finally finding your dimension is such a dream come true, that you can't believe it - Kosuke found his first happiness, but somehow without freedom and covered in layers of facades and politeness. The final moment, though, the final scene... despite all the trauma and the sadness and the sorrow, he managed to "become whole".
I had to go back and watch Singha/Thup moment because the way in which Pavel whispers "Thup" is so damn filled with emotion that one single second is worth almost the whole episode.
Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I really wish we had less Sey and Darin. I love the actors, and I hope…
Agreed - I think the series failed a bit into presenting them to us as "part of the story", they are just colleagues/friends of the main lead but we never actually see them outside of their exes/fwb/bf moments so somehow we can't really connect with them.
For as much as I hate top/bottom mentality, I want to add that here Thup has been the flirtier and more "open" one since episode 1. We'll see how things develop, but in episode 6 it felt like he was doing more of a service (ehm XD) than being an actual top.
Did I miss some context for Singh's family? Did his sister hear ghosts too?
PavelPooh have so much tension, even with only a hug or a look!
Anyway, episodes are just too short! T_T Although with 13 episodes I fear it might get lost or drag a bit in the central part (so from now onwards)... hopefully it won't happen.
Awwwww please don't tell me I'm the only one who cried, I was so emotional this episode! For Thorn, for Thorn/Ya and for Tailah/Janjak! T_T
ANYWAY! This was, without any doubt, one of my favourite series this here. It was consistent till the last episode: fun, engaging, sweet, well-acted, intelligent, with some very nice characters and dialogues. 9.5/10 for me.
Both couples had amazing chemistry and anytime I get more and more surprised by both Big's and Park's acting and the way in which they're so natural with each other. Park, especially, reall did some huge steps forward in acting and you can really feel the difference from MND!
Uhm, basically this is Khemjira but GL-coded? With a ghost haunting the main lead and a shaman who seems cold at first but then falls for the lead?
I really want to watch some good GLs but for some reason most of them fall short after a few episodes, or have hysterical leads, or never really "shine" and I was wondering if this has an average rating due to the production or to the fact that there isn't much audience.
(Anyway: seems like after engineering and music, we're diving into the horror moods these years for BL/GL...)
Yes, this! (I hope you don't get flamed for it. Fans are crazy)
I'm actually a huge Daou and Offroad fan, so this drama really made me sad because after Century of Love (which I loved and rewatched so many times) I was expecting something.... well, something better. :(

Last 30 seconds: *jumping and screaming at William's appearance*
Aside from that, they are also overly cute and lovely off-stage :)

Now, I NEED more JengPan content! =D
