Lol…just like I didnt think I would like Gel Boys I am really enjoying this. It has a fresh perspective on the internal and external emotions that come with being a teenager. As if you dont have enough to handle throwing in the subject of sexuality/same sex relations raises the series to a whole new level. Well done. I found myself smiling throughout episode 2. Each couple is just so darn cute.

The first episode certainly got my attention. I knew what was coming but it was still painful to watch. I love a good bl revenge series. If only to see that smirk wiped off the face of that jerk in the van I am in for the ride.

We have 23 episodes left and as fickle and foolish as these two are anything is possible. Lol

I know many have suddenly taken a liking to the hairdresser. After this last episode my opinion of her remains the same. Who finds a person’s spare key and lets them into that person’s house uninvited? Who takes such liberties as to clean and cook? Who throws out a person’s underwear? I dont care how much you like a person this is an extreme invasion of privacy. I did not find it cute .Actually, I found it very disrespectful and inconsiderate. I wont even bring up the matter of paying the man’s back rent. I was married almost fifty years and my husband would laughingly tell people his money was our money and my money was my money. Lol…good luck to the dancer. He got a sugar mama! That one night stand may even make him a daddy!😂😂

Thank you. I am going to give it a try. I watched Move to Heaven and it was really therapeutic. I loved it.

I really enjoyed reading your comments but believe me I do not in any form or fashion wish I was either one. You call it wearing their hearts on their sleeves. I call it immature. outrageously silly and outlandish. I say this things with no malice. Truth be told my husband’s older sister and her husband were an exact copy of the hairdresser and the dancer. Lol….and she was a fashion model and he was a architect. In my day they were called free spirits. She passed away long ago but the picture that will always linger in my mind is this 45 year old woman in long flowing picktails, blue jeans and sequined tennis shoes. Lol, my brother was the baby of the family but whenever she randomly apppeared at our door he would just smile, shrug his
shoulders and welcome her in. I was left to listen to her and indulge her craziness which I lovingly did. She was who she was. How did crazy couple had three beautiful sons was beyond me. So dont take my comments as coming from a bad place. Take care.

First I want to give thanks for this forum. You guys saved me alot of trouble and frustration. I watched the first two episodes and came to the conclusion that this was not what I expected. Your comments confirmed my first impression. So I waited and watched the last episode. I really enjoyed the last episode. That was about all I could take of the hetero couple. Please dont anyone hate on me. I am a proud hetero but when a series is publicized as bl that is what I want to see. That said I really wish the last episode had been the first. Seeing the backstory unfold would have been more acceptable and entertaining to me if they were going to spend so much time on the hetero couple. Anyway I liked the ending. It had all the realism of that teenage phase when you are coming of age and grappling with your
sexuality and confronting your insecurities and fears. Reading what people who read the manga thought I wish they had stuck to the original. Anyway, this is another wrap.

Jazz for Two

After reading your comments maybe I will get up the courage to watch. My soulmate and husband of almost fifty years passed away seven years ago. It is still a struggle .

I do agree. They picked the right actors to play the part. They actually remind me of my late sister in law and her husband. She was looney as they came. My husband would just look at her and smile. I learned to accept her. She had a big heart but still acted like a teenager. Lol.

This week’s episode was
really well done but it was so scary because there really are crazy fans out there. For a person to consider a virtual stranger as their light is very disturbing. And this is such a competitive and toxic world. I often wonder if we ever really see the real person. Actually, I think we all wear a mask of some sort. It is just that our daily lives are not under a microscope and constant scrutiny. This series does a phenomenal job in bringing real issues to the surface while still entertaining us. The music is also awesome. Each week has been on point.

I am loving this so much! If only Dream would tone it down a notch. I am trying so hard to like the character. The visuals with Dream and Night look so good. Love the height difference. Anyway I am really into this series. The pieces of the puzzle are slowly unraveling. The addition of the professor adds another dimension. It just keeps getting better and better. I really think the rating should be higher.

I think money trumps divorce.

Another awesome episode. I am glad all the pieces are being handled so decisively involving the scandal. I still cant wait until Dokgo’s wife finds out the truth. He and his secretary are really hilarious. His wife is going to tear him to shreds. This is off the trail but she is one classy dresser. I love her outfits. That said I know there is a deeper reason for how dogmatic she is about her daughter. I dont like it but I know it has something to do with that younger brother. As far as the dancer and the hairdresser at this point I feel like they deserve each other. One is a punk and the other is a thirsty overbearing shrew . They both are pathetic. I also have little empathy for the baby’s mother. I see her being a continued thorn in his side. And where is her fiance? Is she just a trophy wife ? Anyway the next episode looks like fun. The best parts are with the CEO and the sister-in-law.

You have voiced your opinion and I respect that but I do not think it is rubbish if others voice their feelings of discontent with any aspect of a series as long as the comments are not directed at the actors or the persons voicing their opinion. That is why I support this forum. Writers and those involved in the production of bl series and for that matter any drama series need to know what is on the minds of their viewers. They need to know the good, the bad and the ugly. Again, I emphasize as long as it is about the storyline and/or the way the characters, etc are depicted. Even the most renowned writers have had their works criticized. I consider myself a bl junkie/fan. I have literally watched over 100 bls within the past five years. Some like this one I chose to drop. That does not make me a bad person. Maybe I will give it another try. Right now I dont think so. I highly doubt if my doing so will affect the bl world. There are enough supporters who do like it and that is ok with me. By the way I gave the series a high rating based on the episodes I did watch. My ratings were based on the performances of the actors, the music, overall production. I did not change my rating just because it took a direction that I disagreed with and personally did not find entertaining. I have looked at a number of bls that included hetero couples that I enjoyed. This was just not one of them. Maybe when it is over I will revisit it. Hopefully, I did not take up too much of your time. Take care.

I am going to make this short and sweet just like this series. 40 episodes with 3 minutes each made this an ideal bl series to binge watch which is what I did. After Top Form I just needed something whimsical and easy. I actually liked the mls . I thought they had their cute moments. Would I put it on my rewatch list. Yes, but only on the rainy day , nothing better to do day. I give it a 7.5 but the 7.1 seems fair. Take care.

I must applaud you for your candid and insightful comment. Largely due to what you pointed out is part of the reason I just cannot bring myself to continue watching. Sorry, but after reading about the original manhwa I wish they had not added the straight couple. Sounds like someone caved to the demands of certain people who felt adding a straight element would be more profitable. From a business perspective maybe they were right but I feel they missed an even greater opportunity to highlight the beauty and the complexities of being young and gay.

Personally I dont understand the rating being so low. The acting, the storyline, the chemistry between the mls is really impressive and has me wanting more. How they started, broke up and how they will finally end up is intriguing to me. I even love the music. It reminds me of how messy relationships can be due to mixed signals and lack of communication. People always say all you needed to do was talk but from personal experience that is sometimes easier
said than done. I know people who broke up, got back together and even had a child only to break up again. At this point it is too early to tell how this will end but I intend to stay and find out.

Wow! I absolutely did not see that coming. The ending was like a punch in the gut! Ouch, that really hurt💔

Lol…you sound like my children. I must add it is not just him. I am really a piece of work. My late husband was my knight in shining armor. My heart still belongs to only him. I am really really ok but I am happy when others find comfort and joy with a new partner. That is one reason I am enjoying this series so much.
