Yes but it's because we know nothing about Mind's private life. How is he really? We saw Krit's flaws. But I agree…
Yes, you’re right about that.
But theeeeeen since Amrit saved his life couldn’t be that Wayu felt like he « owe » him gratitude in a way too !!!! Ah ah ! (Don’t worry …. I don’t think so and I get what you said. It is meant as a joke)
It’s true that maybe Mind should have found a way to get out of that money based encounter. Well he shouldn’t have start with it … but somehow I could also understand the wrong choice. The guy you couldn’t forget since university happens to be at the host bar you come … you want to talk with him but you don’t know if the guy remember you … I can understand how he got there.
I still have sympathy for him. (I will try to find him someone nice so he has his happy end too ^_~ )

Yep, was aware of that. ☺️
Actually when you think about that sometimes what happen in real life. People have trouble at home in their couple with daily life. SOmeone appears from outside to just share the good and the fun and people think it's better ... it's just daily life we get to share the good and the bad.
I still wish we could find someone nice for Mind. 💕
did you watch Kill To Love? It is also a Chinese historical BL, a very good one as well
BTS got it (I like Namjoon ... then J-Hope and Jimin or the other way around but the band mostly) then I was able to see some names but I don't know anyone XD Thanks for translating though :3 it was fun.
why do they always film these historical shows during the winter 🤣it always looks cold af
I gave it a search and found this :
on reddit : COSTUMES & MAKEUP Practicality Overheating: Historical dramas involve layers of robes, corsetry, armor, and heavy wigs. Filming these scenes in the summer heat leads to profuse sweating, ruined makeup, and frequent health risks like heatstroke. The lesser evil: It is far easier to keep actors warm by hiding portable heating pads beneath their robes or using hand warmers between takes than it is to cool down an outdoor set or unheated soundstage
(so there was a costume reason)
CULTURAL REASONS : "Pure as jade": In traditional Chinese culture, snow symbolizes purity, nobility, and resilience. Falling snow is highly romanticized and is frequently used as the setting for pivotal emotional scenes. A fruitful year: Snow is also tied to the well-known idiom (a fall of seasonal snow gives promise to a fruitful year), symbolizing hope and blessings for the future. from here : https://confuciusinstitute.site.hw.ac.uk/2020/12/17/snow-in-chinese-culture/
(so cultural reasons too)
And ... (from reddit again) STUDIO LOGISTIC BUDGET Apparently a massive portion of Chinese period dramas are filmed at the Hengdian World Studios in Zhejiang province. These massive soundstages and open-air sets are historically accurate but lack built-in heating or air conditioning.

Not only the historical though ... but a lot of historical seems to be during winter ... maybe it's easier for technical reasons. Also I wondered if it's because the costume would make everyone too hot so they only shoot in winter ? Or there is specific cultural reasons that makes it more fitting to the trope of historical dramas ... If there is a reason it would be cool to know ! :3
When the mom reproach is son that the emperor is taking the other concubine and sone to the autumn hunt ... implying his skills in archery aren't good enough.
I sooOOoOOoo wanted the son to reply back :
- Maybe it's your skills in bed that need to be more convincing so it would be you and not the other concubine being chosen for the trip to autumn hunt.
-_____-)'
P.S : somehow I think I am more into Wei Zi Ming and Yin Zhou story. (maybe I should worry ... it's not *exactly* a very sane relationship)
.... I like Krit. Krit is fine. He's nice. He's quite stable considering his BF is a host and that obviously he's more territorial type. (He looks more father material than Wayu also I think)
but ... if I was too chose ... I would chose Mind I think. He's just sweet and nice and handsome (Krit also is very handsome) but the vibe oozed by mind makes me more at peace.
Thanks it's not up to me I would have already completely messed the scenario of this drama for sure 🤣
(Actually I think I can also picture Mind as a Dad for Singto ... hmmm ... I start to consider a Krit + Mind scenario. Definitely getting out of hands 😂 )
Was it about amount or quality ?
(and yes yes yes .... actual plot !)
But theeeeeen since Amrit saved his life couldn’t be that Wayu felt like he « owe » him gratitude in a way too !!!! Ah ah !

We are not supposed to be thinking of the door or the kitchen table !
.... yet I am totally in that team too XD

Now we know :3

I see things without knowing if I guess it right but I love the mystery of it. XD
*warning BL with plot*
So people who are not into that type of BL wouldn’t be disappointed.
We should be considerate with them °-°)

but the drama doesn't really follow the novel on many aspects
Can't believe the drama is reaching the end ...
I don't dare to watch this week episode yet ... I want to "save it for later"
Let's enjoy the show ! :3
