I disagree. ITSAY and GSP are the way to do slow burn romances. I love slow-burn romances. This is a no-burn romance.…
Thank You! That's exactly the issue here. They could have told the 7 episodes in 2 or 3, but in those 2 series they could have more episodes and still work (but it's perfect the way it was done). I was thinking to myself that if at least they had the kind of tension moments that make you scream and live for their chemistry... And their long stares are somewhat dull, like, specially Mark is very good at acting those things, but here i don't see the vibe between them as special. I love staring, like, i could die when Pupa and Tian looked at each others in ATOTS, their loving eyes consumed me, and truth to be told, the majority of us loved this series a lot, a series where there's only a single sweet kiss at the end. Why? because there was an story, deepness, slow burn romance ticking all the boxes... And let's not even start with ITSAY, because we could write a thesis about how amazingly that slow burn romance was made. It really bothers me when this people think that wanting love between the characters of a romantic series is wrong or we are just thirsty whores that want to see them dancing the tango. Porn exist for a reason, and love stories too. Love stories can have sex and still be beautifully told, and they can omit those and still be amazing, is not the issue here. For me here there's a lack of plot and the dragging is making it bland instead of romantic. But i do think that the acting is quite nice, and of course, the food.
For me, after the break (ep 11) feels like they didn't knew how to keep the story intresting and they made poor plot choices, specially with the main couple. Many things and actions also feel out of character, some major changes in their minds are way too sudden... and overall they just complicate their lifes stupidly. The good thing for you is that you haven't been here week by week and months without a continuation, maybe it won't feel as boring and disappointing to you.
Like many ppl said it is pretty slow paced. The plot is very simple so far and food + scenery is kinda a major…
Agree, as of now is not something out of this world, but ot looks like an ok series (only watched 2 full episodes so far). The long stares trying to hypnotize each others or read each others minds still don't bother me that much.
I thought that this one had potential to cure a bit my bl depression after IPYTM, but the comments lowered my hopes dramaticallly. I guess i'll find out now.
China. One doesn't need to say much more. Potential ruined, barely any bl substance and you have to read between lines. No physical contact. Again, China.
Hmmm... not terrible as a movie, but so many triggering issues. One wonders what exactly happened between them previous to the movie, we need the exact details of that night at the bar. The teacher handles all this really poorly but the ending scene is the icing of the cake. The student deserves better. Run cutie, run.
It was cute and full of good quotes and lessons, it follows the movie and it's quite on pair with it. They are still strugling and making huge decisions, while being confused and in love. I wish they showed more of the love tho, i wish we could have more romance in the mix. Some episodes felt a bit flat but they wrapped it nicely, there's room for future seasons while not being upset if it ends here. The dealing with an homosexual love in a catholic school was a very good premise to explore and it was perfectly portrayed.
Hope to see more from Dominic and Luke, and specially from Gio, idk, he feels like the forever but that's just me.
I don't think so... Maybe 20% are here exclusively for the BL.And it's not something to be proud.
And exactly, this is a forum and what you think is your opinion not the authority, remember that. Because so far you just tried to police patrol others and leave the message and why some people got emotional and felt judged with a prejudiced lense. When many felt bad about it, it is good to point it out and acknowledge the issue. I not only was able to reflect about myself, i still explained why those statements are problematic and hurtful even if the person doesn't mean it in that way, they still are prejudiced assumptions that can harm individuals and comunities so I'll leave it at that.
AgreedImagine a life where your ass & soul are less important than a game. Poverty in morals and priorities is…
You are totally right, is such a wrong lesson to put out there... twisted as hell. And in my eyes i could never see that as a oh poor saint, what a good soul, ike they try to do. Would it be that shameful if a protagonist wanted to have a sex life and meet people when he was single? Jesus. I wish i could do that and stop watching some series (specially the last couple of months were bl and lgbt+ content has been awful), i'm the kind of person that even if i'm not enjoyong it i have to see it end. If only, if it's really really terrible, i wait till it's over and skip through everything just to get a grip. See you around!

What pride are you talking about. The person that i replied (not you) still said that being here exclusively for the bl "it's not something to be proud". It's still a judgemental statement and is still wrong to asume that the people that are indeed here for their story are just "fetishize couples BL" or the "people make that they want to see isolated BLs in a universe of their own / reduced to fantasy" comments. All that are judgemental and asumptions made by this person. If this person wanted to know why people felt that way it could be either asking or they could read coments like por example mine where i explained why at first i was here for the entire drama but because of how they are handling it i'm only inmersed on the Ou wen x Mark relationship now. But opted for asumming the bad instead, so yes, still judgemental in my book. But maybe i got too carried away, and i could have said it in a different way, i admit that i wasn't polite at all. You know, those are prejudices and stigmas that people that enjoy bl and lgbtq content (specially the ones that aren't part of the comunity or are still inside the closet) have to deal with and continuosly explain themselves to others, even plenty of people hide it as if it was something sameful, something that they shouldn't enjoy or watch . If something, we should normalize and encourage that people will make every type of love story normatives and we all have the right to prefer whatever even if it's not a love that reflects their heterosexual personal love life.
I feel like trying to make Fiat the standard bl passive bottom from thai bls they are taking away the only cool side that he had. If i disliked some of his ways before, now i cannot stand him, he comes across as fake, childish and a Martyr that gives his ass as a sacrifice. And about them as a couple... is weird, they have hot, sweet, bonding moments and all, love to see that, but i still don't feel the love chemi between them in the way i like it, in the eyes, in the small things... is a bit dry of emotions. My hopes are landing in the second couple Leon and Pob, let's see.
It's an ok but totally basic romance kdrama, not that bad for an at home weeked or so. My issue is that is one of the majority, the ones that follow the same tropes, at the same episodes, do the same overdue scenes and plotlines... It gets so redundant, unrealistic, cliché and boring that i end up rolling my eyes and skipping the last few episodes, because i totally know the plotlines that they always do with couples in this kind of scenarios. 6.5/10
Even if at first i came for the gay couple, i was here for the entire thing. Now i cannot watch it without skipping 70% of it, specially the main couple. Love me an older woman younger man love story, but they managed to make it boring, stupid in many ways and totally redundant. They make it way more complicated than what it actually is, the way they act (or don't act when they should) and fail to see things that are crystal clear is totally absurd... And let's not start with the nonsense of how the ex plotline is being developed. The icing of the cake is that the chemistry and feellings from the first 3 or 4 episodes have dried out, i don't even feel their atraction as of now.
Honestly, it might be best to wait until it's finished airing and then binge-watch it, because this is a very…
Haha thank u all for your POV!! For me it depends as well, i haven't felt 100% for a Kdrama since Hello Monster so the last few years i just selected a few that are my style or have the actors i love and trust and usually wait since most of the times i feel like there are tons of fillers that are skip worthy. It's like disney movies, i appreciate tons of things from them but now with the goggles of experience i can see the problematic and cringy stuff by miles and that mixed with the basic tropes throw me off quite a lot. I wanna fall in love with kdramas again, like, i thought Nevertheless would do but the second half felt completely flat. Hopefully this one will help. THANKS 😊
In all honesty, i hope that it won't be just a longer in deep version of the movie. I don't mind that for an start, but i truly hope it won't end at the same point as the movie, it was good for what it was, but my heart cannot take a full season that ends at the same exact bittersweet / mostly sad point and then wait to see if there's a 3 season next year. I wanna know what's next for our babies. And also, i think that it would be, not boring, but rather anticlimatic to know all the major things that are gonna happen in 9 episodes, in order and how the entire thing ends. It would give no room for surprises, for new emotions... i hope it isn't the case, because for the ones that have seen the movie like me, i'm afraid that it would be flat. It can work as a first episode or two at most, so the ones who haven't seen the movie could get at the same point as we are, but no a full season of the same please. Still, really looking forward to watch it and hope it would be going forward in time. One of the very best.

BTS's Jin jokes aside, the dragging is making it bland instead of romantic. We need development.

I had fun with it even if it wasn't the most cohesive piece of art, hope you too!
