I think this is the first series where I felt that the relationship felt too rushed; too rushed to the point that the series had lost all its momentum early. By Ep.5 I've lost interest in what will happen to the two. Cute, but truly forgettable
Yeah, this logic is so flawed and it really pisses me off! People avoiding watching BLs because it has a sad story/ending are so out of touch with reality.
Help! I really want to watch this series, but when I remember Krist's homophobic remarks years ago, its like I'm…
He did not make homophobic remarks, I really do not understand where people get that from. For a very very long time after SOTUS fans kept pestering him with questions if he's gay. He eventually got mad and said "NO!!" and then people started calling him homophobic... which does not make sense tbh. I actually heard that he's been very supportive of the LGBT cause.
I do not know what happened why it was suddenly reduced to 7 episodes. Initially they announced 10. Anyway, the end result was kinda corny. More episodes could have helped fleshing out the characters because a lot of them felt soulless and it feels that only Moon Jiyong was doing all the work here.
there's one scene that did not make complete sense to me though... why did that guy in drag charge at Jihyun and Aeri after their class? Who was he? His appearance in the show seemed to come out of the blue and seemed to be a forced trans representation
Yeah it's a drama and all so you need some suspension of disbelief... but if I was in Leejun's position I would've slapped Haram's ass with a restraining order/sexual harassment accusation if he really was not into him at the beginning as he says lmao
I thought this show was very solid until that stupid ending came along. This is what you get when you give in to audiences demanding for a happy ending when the story has no place for one. Truly the most stupid ending I've seen in a BL thus far.
None of those, he's just a plain guy who likes men. His previous abusive boyfriend makes Ray dress up as a woman so that he (abusive BF) won't be seen outside with another man.
I am still in Ep. 5. I love it. It's very anti-kdrama / anti-KBL. Kinda Western-ish in fact? Most likely because the director is European? I guess the people that keep hating on it are the ones who are just too consumed with big studio productions. But guess what, T8S isn't one of that flock so set your expectations accordingly
I can actually settle with the hugs between WY and TJ. Them hugs look so warm and sincere. For the life of me I do not understand these people downvoting a series because of one lousy kiss or the lack of it (I also observed this in A Shoulder to Cry On). Go watch Pornhub or something.
OK, I loved the concept and all, but this show did NOT deliver. Probably the worst thing about it is that they never explained what is the deal with Denis. He was a key element in the plot but we knew nothing about him, his mental condition, his attraction to Dongbaek, and his hatred for Yudam. If they could have addressed this huge plot hole, I would've liked this drama better.
Not good, not bad either. the main problem is that the conflict in the story is too weak and just doesn't make any sense. the chef MC is also very dull.
ngl I've had low expectations for MBS' Tunku Shower when it started out. Mr. Unlucky started on a high yet quickly lost steam, Senpai This Can't Be Love was otherworldly in a bad way, and Takarakun and Amagikun was just bland. With those three consecutive turkeys it's a mystery how this special timeslot on MBS even continued.
But then came Eternal Yesterday, which---after wiping away all those buckets of tears---made me realize that hey, these BLs might not be that bad after all. Candy Color Paradox was a bit meh but the vibrancy of it was just too alluring to resist. And then we had Jack o'Frost.... out of the six BLs that took this timeslot thus far, MBS just knocked it out of the park with this one. The filmmaking was topnotch, as was the storytelling. Everything just blended so well together, from the cinematography to the score. Technical wise, Jack o'Frost was the best-filmed of all BLs released in 2023 thus far.
Kosuke-san, who we all loved as Katori in Takarakun and Amagikun, was equally spectacular as Fumiya here. He's got a real bright future ahead of him.
Anyway, I am very glad this timeslot got renewed for another year to air boys love dramas and I cannot wait for the next project to be announced.
man i hate that among the 2022 BLs released from Taiwan, this got the least amount of attention... don't get me wrong, My Tooth Your Love was great, but DNA Says Love You was on a different level
Wow, people really are mad at that epilogue. The epilogue is more of a special ep, it's barely connected to the story narrated in Eps. 1 to 6. Think of it as something similar to an Our Skyy special, idk. hope that helps calm you down
I will never understand why among MBS' long string of BLs for 2022, Eternal Yesterday has the least number of votes when it is miles ahead of the rest in terms of storytelling and quality. This is why we can't have nice things.
every 15 years, Jaewoo jumps back to 2022 (when the dormitory was on the brink of being demolished) and then jumps back again to 2007 (when Jihoon was still alive). There are many loose ends to the story so you just have to accept it as that without questions asked... that is just my interpretation, maybe someone else here has a better way of putting it
