I watch a BL every so often and I caught it immediately! Although it is less so the further in. It was not intended to but for some reasons how WC Looked at him and his soccer tag on his bag was sooooo BL. To be honest I'm a bit annoyed with this SL. It appears they had a childhood friendship and connection but it was forgotten by xinshu and WC is holding the most hideous of grudges, meanwhile poor xinshu has the crappiest non parent and suffered greatly meanwhile WC is over here oblivious and hating on the sweet XINSHU. To Me it's just not well written because who doesn't catch the drift that Xinshu means no ill will to WC and if he forgot something it's obvious that it wasn't on purpose!!!!!!!!! My one gripe about sloppy writing is when they carry it on too long without a satisfactory reason. If there is a misunderstanding then please just explain it and not stretch it 15+ episodes!

I agree, they made her too naive. But nevertheless I still liked it. Just wish she would have shown a bit more intelligence. Lol

I was sad to immediately notice it was dubbed. 😭 I'm actually here for the ML. I remember him in another drama was looking for him in a ML role.

She wasn't even an ex. Just the chef he used for his restaurant to cook the stolen recipes. She wasn't a love interest to anyone.

I loved this show but yes he was unbelievably irritating. Like they can make him annoying but his rants were over the top. I wish they would have at least made the rants shorter. Lol 🤣 I found myself sympathetic but also very annoyed. Alos one part they seemed to not really connect was if he sucks and wanted someone to congratulate him for success, then why not become someone worthy of success. That part was annoying. I guess in the end what I got out of it was wee all need someone to support us even if we are annoying turds. If you have literally No one it is a cold depressing existence. I think the real takeaway for me. I connected to this as a loner.

I've often thought that too. Some are just plain unnecessary and the drama would be better. I fast forward through couples or storylines I think are boring.

From the main trailer it looks like it gets more interesting in the later episodes. I found that it wasn't that great in the first 4 episodes but know they are trying to build a case for the "enemies to friends to lovers"

What changed for you. I have been wanting to give it a try.

says 6/15!!! woot

I have never watched anything in the BL genre. This is really good. Amazing chemistry and I love the banter and cute moments.. I'm disappointed it's only 1 so per week and only 10 ep.

I went to a few modern dramas. I had never watched any Cdrama until POJ. It's hard to top it but I've found several that are definitely good but nothing tops the storyline or chemistry for me of POJ.

Yeah I always find it VERY interesting that in most dramas I have watched overall the 2nd leads seem to have more intimacy and innuendo. The only one recently that I felt was shockingly bold with the leads was As beautiful as you. They implied they had s*x many times and even showed a really 🔥 scene. I was like "woah they really finally showed it".

I didn't realize they cut so much, I wonder if they regret it now since it was such a commercial and international success. I would have definitely watched 50 episodes of POJ. If the writing, cast, character development and overall storyline is good I would never complain.

I watched it in April but yes there was a series of episodes I felt like the writing got sloppy. It felt like they got together finally then she pulled back for no reason. I wonder if they edited it after and some scenes were taken out or just the writing struggled. I remember being very frustrated with it during the middle ending parts. It's like "ok we suffered(overwhelming anticipation)30 episodes to see them finally confess and now it's like we are missing something". Overall this drama is truly unforgettable and one of the best in terms of overall positives. I've watched like 30+ Cdramas since then and no costume drama quite hits like this. I've had some really good modern ones but POJ will be hard to top. I just wish they had truly cleaned up some of the romance parts. It seemed like they didn't give us enough of the "together, truly in love" parts. Other dramas have had a nice flow... I really liked how the Prisoner of Beauty handled it.
