Ravin was so flirty I swear I would’ve eaten that whole moment up if the scene had been edited properly..
I liked the whole NC scene and lead up to it despite the very weird/bad editing because I think the actors did a good job, Ravin was so sweetly asking for it. But yeah, it could have been way better.
Why aren't they showing a proper kissing scene? They're not minors. And Bas has already done much more intimate…
This is not a BOC production. Bas is independent. I've never even heard of the companies behind this, it seems very low budget. Why are people going into this expecting BOC quality?
There's something wrong about the kisses that's right.. But Bas is definitely a boy kisser. Yoo did u even watch…
Direction matters a lot in NC scenes, not only acting ability. I feel like way too many people are dragging Lhongchang specifically (who I don't think has even been in anything else yet), while neither of them were kissing open mouthed even though Bas obviously can be comfortable with that and much more
This show grosses me out, and it's not the age gap because I can get behind an age gap if it's done well (I was just earlier saying that I would totally ship two characters from a different show who have an even bigger age gap). I think it might be the over the top manga-style acting giving uncanny valley *combined* with that age gap, with all that make up settling into the older actor's wrinkles and his gigantic creepy smile and then the younger actor's wide open terrified eyes all the time... like is it a horror film or what? Geez. If they both just looked human, maybe I could get behind it.
I understand why cartoons have exaggerated expressions to show emotion, but I have no idea why real human faces would then emulate those cartoons and make everything look so unrealistic. I'm not trying to tell people that they can't like different things than I do, but I see that there's a big debate going on here about whether or not the age gap is acceptable, and I don't think it's necessarily just that one thing making it weird for people so I wanted to point out that it might be the acting style. I know it's a thing in Japanese shows, and it's always a miss for me, but in this context (supposed to be sexy) it's a big nope. It was a big reason why I didn't like Fukami either.
There are of course plenty of great JBL with excellent, believable/natural acting.
For everyone who thought the first half was so much better than the second... why? At least the second love interest could somewhat act. The first guy, it was like someone instructed him to definitely not show any emotions whatsoever
Where can I see the AI one? I just checked out ep 1 on iqiyi but I guess it's already been replaced because I didn't notice any AI in the opening sequence...
I heard somewhere that Asian audiences don't have this overwhelmingly negative opinion of AI like we have in the west, it seems like that might not be true if there was this much backlash!
If I don’t find the ml’s attractive I can’t get into the series maybe I’m petty sorry 🤷🏻♀️
I agree, but I think it's not the actors but the styling... the make up on the older guy and the hair on the younger... I don't know, it all looks unnatural and uncanny valley for me, with some more natural looks and lighting it might work. That plus the anime style over the top acting, I can't get into this at all. And I had the same kinds of issues with Fukami.
That's weird, they are both really hot but he doesn't look like Tutor at all for me
Yes, I watched the rest of episode 4 looking for similarities and I noticed it in the nose and side profile as well. Two exceptionally good looking men
I noticed many inconsistencies that could well be explained that way! How do you know it's AI and not just sloppy work though? I would like to be able to tell because AI is getting harder to spot all the time. Ugh it's so creepy like in The Thing when you can't tell if it's real people or extraterrestrial beings imitating them
It seems like no one read the synopsis? He isn't coming back. It's about moving on after losing someone. I think there should have been more screen time/episodes with the new love interest since we're now like 2/3 through already. I'm also struggling with the wooden acting, not just from the main character and not just after the death, but all the way through and with all the actors. These kinds of topics are heavy and need some really good actors. Also the light-hearted tone of the series doesn't work with the theme of deep grief...
