Oh my... Even more office scenes? More to skip for me... 5 years and then meeting without keeping contact is not…
Honestly I didn't really feel they had a relationship while Ryan was a trainee - they were getting to know each other, they started "dating" but right after (the day after? two days after?) Jane left and their story ended basically before even starting. I agree with you that "silence for 5 years" is NOT a relationship.
When they met again, they are not trainee/mentor or youngnaiveRyan/workaholicbutinsecureJane anymore and that's when they can start a real relationship.
I'll probably be in the minority of people loving how this ended - yes, I agree that the "going abroad to study/work without a word for years" is such a trite clichè, but it didn't really weight that much here: both Jane and Ryan focused on something, succeeded, and then met again at their right time.
Loved ALL the characters and ALL the cast: I wish they could have spent more time on the work/office aspects because that would have been very interesting, but I still loved the overall result. If I only have one complaint, is that Jane's personal crisis towards the end felt a bit too abrupt and I would have liked a bit more focus on his insecurities earlier on, too.
Anyway! Now, to make it perfect we'd need a special episode with Tae&Bahmee's wedding in which we get to see Jane&Ryan's proposal, and their life as two adult boyfriends living together.
9/10 for me, I might be biased because I'm a huge OffGun fan, but I will really miss P'Jane, and Pie and the vibes of this drama!
Hi there, how do you like this series so far, anyone, pls?🙏🙏🙏
It's a nice one! Sometimes funny, sometimes sweet, with loveable main characters. The premise of a character seeing premonitions is intriguing, even though we're on ep9 and we haven't really had any explanation about that yet.
To me it gives off UWMA vibes, but way less dramatic and tragic.
That onion cutting scene was so simple yet so powerful!
Loved this, I bingewatched the last three episodes and, although it somehow lost itself a bit in the middle, it was an amazing coming of age story with beautiful characters (kudos to the cast, they did a great job!). Japanese love/sliceoflife/comingofage series always have this smooth, soft aura that permeates everything and that I really love: every little thing feels meaningful, and it's just like being immersed in a calm river that envelopes you and lets you flow along with what's happening.
This was one hell of a ride, and I can't wait to have an entire free day to bingewatch everything to glue all the pieces together.
I loved the ending: I loved how it did not really explain "everything", leaving us partially with our own interpretations, but still putting all the pieces together and showing that, in the end, even if it's true that sh!t happens in life and you cannot really control it, it's also true that people's different attitudes can change how things go.
BOC has an amazing roster of actors, I really hope they can keep producing great series in which the main point is the story and plot, more than the "it's just a BL".
And now: Bas. Main lead. When? This guy rocked all his scenes and I cried rivers with his acting, he needs and deserves a main role.
Cute and fun episode, love how all of them relate & talk - but, the only thing I could really focus on was shirtless P'Yu with those skinny black jeans... he's one fine boy!
Uhm, what happened to Diew's mother? In the first episodes she was all on "make friends! go out" you can't stay in your room all day!"... and now she acts paranoid? o.O
Anyway, love love love God! He's such a cute big friendly giant! I just can't not love him!
extra clip from ep7 iqiyi china 🥺https://x.com/TheblueCarat_El/status/1833291891737301286?t=65TrMZJGs5SFTBvgztMQrg&s=19
Thank youuuuu! But, question if somebody knows: isn't China supposed to be pretty heavy on censorship for LGBT/BL series? How come they get this series to show, AND even with extra scenes?
i dont know...i want to like this show so much but the story doesnt have a direction it feels like. i mean Shan…
I think the "knock knock" part was a reference to one of Shan's novels - in the earlier episodes Obaun lies and says he's not a fan of Shan's and has never read his works, while in reality he loves his work... so that "knock knock" is basically a quote from a novel and by doing that Shan realizes that Obaun actually read his works (which are all about "someone waiting" for something/someone, just like Shan is waiting to meet Obaun again after ten years)
I usually watch this one as it goes, but yesterday I was so damn tired that I wouldn't have enjoyed it enough... and I'm happy I waited, because this episode was so simple yet important, with many confrontations and important turning points for both Ryan and Jane.
I love how Ryan and Jane are complementing each other: Ryan is learning so much from his mentor, and Jane is reminiscing of his old dream and he's finally getting the courage he needs to walk his own way. The rice scene was so smooth and simple and intimate but that moment of sharing was an open and relaxed confession that warmed my heart. And, although I would have loved to see a more developed kiss scene, it still fit the moment and the cozy atmosphere.
All the people in the crew have a place in this series and will have a place in my heart. <3
Yes, I know almost nothing makes sense, BUT this week's episode was so beautiful! Loved the xia's moments as always (I want that blue sword, it's so damn elegant and epic!), and... man, TutorYim. <3
And yes, finally that the OST's out, I have the opening in loop since hours.
Sin, our moody writer in desperate need of inspiration, decides to take a little creative retreat—you know,…
Everything quoted, subscribed AND signed! Especially Sin's new fisherman boyfriend, popped up from the depths of whoknowswhere.
This show is a huge mess but, for some reason, it's one of the ones I wait the most during the week, and this episode made me one happy and giggling kid. XD
Bingewatched everything and I'm happy I did! It's such a charming series, all characters are loveable and their dynamics flow and develop in a very natural and relatable way - plus, they are aware of their feelings and desires, which is a nice change among many series in which 20/25/(even)30 yo guys are shy to admit they want to do something (read: everything) with their boyfriends.
I hope we can keep the trend of "positive people in dramas" (yes, P'God from MND, I'm also thinking about you!), with good communication and vibes. Yay!
Just started bingewatching and I think I lost something: Yu and Yo are brothers, right? And they are orphans, living next door to Ai, who's the only son of a christian priest. Ing is just a close friend to them, and with a love interest on Yo. Correct?
