Such an underrrated series!!! I've just finished it and I'm swearing under my breath "WTF WTF WTF WTFFFFF" Incredible. Literally MINDBLOWING. I need season 2 now!!!!! So many questions!!!!!!
I don’t get why the Netflix synopsis and MDL are so different, it’s like 2 completely different stories (thank god I looked it here)
Netflix synopsis: A charismatic conman and a group of aspiring movie directors get inside the lives of two women with profound emotional scars. But nothing is like it seems.
You can tell us too!! Isn't it you should not be playing with your friends!! I also think the game or house of…
I always thought that the way Arisu was using the reflection of a tank to try to see the head gear was a hint. One he didn’t noticed bc he was too scared and traumatized. But I thought that if everyone were in front of a reflective surface (the tanks) they would overload the system bc they would be looking at the wolf, so everyone would be wolf. Idk, maybe it wouldn’t work, maybe you’re right and the tools were the hint, but at the time that was what I thought.
I really wanted to like this show, it has Toptap, Mike, Pod and Khaotung! It should be at least funny and fluffy, or at least that’s what I told myself. But the misogyny and homophobia is so high and on your face that I can’t even enjoy the actors. Seriously, I find myself muttering “...omg that’s so fucked up...” You can tell an story of internalized homophobia (Ton) without making fun of it, otherwise you’re just reinforcing it. Also the misogyny? Wow, I didn’t think it could be worse.
Good acting in Circle. She looks like Park Shin Hye from some angles, I can't be the only one lol. And the way…
You’re not the only one lol I’m watching “My only love song” (im tired ok lol) and I can’t shake the feeling she’s somehow related to Park Shin Hye. The looks, the way she speaks, the hands, even the voice! But so far I didn’t find anything. But really, they’re so similar they look like sisters, or at least cousins.
The show is just telling who this people are and how this people ended up where we first saw them at the beginning…
I was thinking the same, that in order to fight what they hated, they became the very thing they despised. It’s like that saying: “The road to Hell is paved with good intentions”
You realize that everyone has their own reasons and backstory for being where they are. Maybe is for revenge, maybe is for protecting your family, it doesn’t matter if at the end you’re doing despicable things like kill people. Maybe Jerome has a reason for being where he is and exploding a plane was something collateral, a mean to an end. In the same way that for DG killing those rebels was a mean to an end and nothing personal. But probably some family member of any of those rebels doesn’t think that way.
So here you go. An endless circle of hate and selfishness.
But to be fair, I think I would enjoy a second season if that means to see more about Lily, his north korean mercenary (sorry, partner) and DG. And of course, I would like to see HR and DG realize they became what they hate the most and are no better that the people they’re after.
From my understanding, they are just going over what happened in Gusu more in depth to give better background…
Ooooohhh... Thank you! I hope you're right. I don't mind to watch a cut version but it would be REALLY nice if they take this chance to use some new footage.
Anyone can explain what it's the difference with the original version??? Edit: Ok, nevermind. For what I'm seeing, they've reordered the scenes so it's chronological (somewhat, bc it begins with the Jiang Trio at the Cloud Recess). I don't know what are they gonna do once there's no time jumps... Maybe they will use extra footage like a director's cut version or something?
Look, I'm not gonna complain here for having the excuse to watch the drama again, I've rewatched the entire show already once and several episodes I've rewatched them so many times I know the dialogues by heart. But I don't understand the reason behind this decision. Maybe it's to know how many die-hard fans CQL have? Bc otherwise it makes no sense.
Like many dramas, there of course will be traumatics moment. In my opinion this drama follows a cliche route so…
I want you to know that I spilled tea through my nose. All the post is with that level-headed tone and THEN that LAST LINE. I spilled tea all over the screen and keyboard and my nose itches and I'm picturing you doing the universal gesture of "strangle" but with a perfect straight face and I'm losing it again LMAO

I think they've already gave us clues with the opening and the shorts at the end of each ep. Like, I think there's gonna be a huge conflict narratively: finally people in the South are gonna figure out she's in the North, wich will cause political conflict and indeed she's gonna be on every news channel. It's probable they will go with a King 2 Hearts route and make that a final push for semi-reunification or something that would make traveling rules more lax (remember they have to make the soldier who likes dramas be able to diner with Choi Ji Woo) or they make Jung Huyk and the 4 soldiers like a team of diplomats or something.
In any case I think there's 2 things that are sure: 1- somehow the Four Musketeers and Jung Huyk are gonna be able to travel to the South 2- Se Ri and Jung Huyk are gonna meet again in Switzerland when they're heartbroken.
What I don't know is where they're gonna live together eventually. Even if they go to the fantastical route of reunification or at the very last make them important enough that they can travel freely, I can't see either of them living happily in the other's country.
What I CAN see is both of them living happily in Switzerland, JH studying/playing the piano and relaxing at last after avenging his brother's death; SR paragliding and ruling her company from afar.
BUT I know that's unlikely even if makes the more sense narratively. They're never gonna make a couple live happily in a foreign country (bc they can't live in any of their countries if they want to live together) bc they're too patriotic for that. They wouldn't consider that a "happy ending", they would prefer a sad ending in wich they would live separately and waiting for the reunification in order to be together. Wich. Sucks. I doubt very much that I will like the ending.
I want to warn everyone in case you guys did what I did and don't watch till the very end of the ep bc you don't want to watch the preview: WATCH UNTIL THE END. THERE'S LITTLE STORIES AFTER THE CREDITS!!
WTF?! I just commented here a minute ago after watching the last ep available (with a trial vip account, but it’s less than 2$) and it was the 42. Now I enter a fee minutes later to see if there’s some teaser from the next ep and I see 2 more eps available!! AgsfshsgshbdhsjshYESSSS
Chinese fans who are VVIP members can watch the ending tonight. I hope it won't be bad like other bromance shows.
Same as Helena. I bought the mensual subscription of WeTv (pity that you can only watch the vip/latest eps on the app and not on desktop) and I can only see ultil ep 42 available. Is there another level of vip that can watch the remain 8 eps this night? I’m confused...
Let's be honest... if this is not gonna be a love triangle it's gonna be a huge revolution in terms of Thai BL…
I don't understand what you mean... You're tired of poly relationships bc it's "plain romance with no real-life elements"??? I'm confused... Gurl, tell me what are those poly shows bc I don't know any apart from the western show Siren.
I've just finished it and I'm swearing under my breath "WTF WTF WTF WTFFFFF"
Incredible. Literally MINDBLOWING. I need season 2 now!!!!!
So many questions!!!!!!

Like wtf netflix, I almost watched it.
Idk, maybe it wouldn’t work, maybe you’re right and the tools were the hint, but at the time that was what I thought.
Seriously, I find myself muttering “...omg that’s so fucked up...”

Bc in viki they’re airing a bts, not the spinoff with Lee Rang.
