honestly the teaser didn’t do much for me from that alone the show seems kinda whatever, but i’ll refrain from judging the whole series based off a 2 minute teaser and watch it when it airs
a bit disappointed in the mingkit scene. they didn’t even speak. i hope this isn’t all we get from their story in the upcoming season as well. looking back on it actually, while their story was enjoyable, it was a bit rushed. they left several things up in the air. most notable, they never really talked about beam and kit lying about dating after mingkit’s first kiss. they just dropped the issue. that feels a bit sloppy to me.
they left out book scenes that would have helped flesh out their characters as well in my opinion. for example, kit accidentally sending an ily sticker to ming.
also, i’m confused. what exactly happened to wayo. was he r*ped and drugged or was it only a hickey? there are 2 different versions of events according to a comment below and what someone said on twitter.
i think for people who have never read the book, there are a lot of instances where things are quite unclear like this. i don’t pay much attention to the other couples, but one example of this for me would be phayo’s first time. i dont think it needed to be more explicit or anything, but they could have said something that would have more clearly illustrated that they actually had sex opposed to just fooled around or something.
overall, i enjoyed the episode and the series of course! but yeah, these little issues have been bugging me.
I instantly forgot everything I've watched when I saw it.
ive been thinking that they’re the best actors on the series tbh. but like you said lol, it’s hard to separate bias.
either way, i think joong started off a bit rocky in the earlier episodes, but by now his acting is really good, second only to nine’s. and nine, well his micro expressions are amazing. he keeps improving every episode. by far the best actor of the cast.
Ok one thing they REALLY need to fix is the speed of the delivery of their lines. They take WAY too long to talk…
i honestly haven’t noticed LOL, but that may be bcs im only half paying attention while watching since i’m usually tweeting about the show while i wait for mingkit
i know they basically confirmed season 3, but i don’t feel too excited tbh lol. mingkit/joongnine are my favourite, and i don’t see them getting too much screentime. will be crossing my fingers tho
i honestly don’t care whether the show has kissing scenes or not; they’re not necessary for me to enjoy a romance, but the way people are talking about pretty simple physical expressions of affection (like deep kisses) in BL like it’s so sinful and obscene is really annoying and reads homophobic tbh. like is there all this debate and energy when it’s a straight drama? i don’t think so. people need to stop oversexualising everything gay.
ok i commented similar but i didn’t wanna be a debby downer, so i deleted lol. i’m very sad about this! and…
yeah i know, but i guess it’s hard for me to imagine her not realising their potential when she was writing these stories lol.
and if not while writing, not realising after her first couple books were published, when i’m sure the comments would have started to come in (assuming she didn’t release all the books at once).
Mingkit confession scene ends up a lot sweeter than how I imagine them in the novel (not that I'm complaining).…
ok i commented similar but i didn’t wanna be a debby downer, so i deleted lol. i’m very sad about this! and if there’s a season 3, and they barely show up, i question if i’ll even watch it lol. mingkit really are the stars of the series for me.
like liz kind of said tho, i can’t believe the author lowkey wastes her best couples lol. phayo’s boring why are they 97% of the focus.
