Basically another awesome episode excluding the pointless and intrusive troupe with the secretary and the fake fiancee. I really look at this as an unnecessary diversion and a useless filler. The scenes with both the main and the second couple are always on point. I especially love the shower scene. When Jeng wants it he wants it no matter what. Also love the cameo appearance of my guy from Make Every Day Counts. Only two more episodes. I hope we dont have to endure too much more of these silly females and the bipolar cousin. I still think some writers have a problem with female characters in bls. They need to take a look at Love in the Big City , Semantic Error and Blue Canvas of Youthful Days. That’s how you incorporate a female character into the storyline that actually adds something tangible to the storyline.
I just finished watching and I loved it. I even thought the ending was not cut and dry as some suggest. For one thing his body is not covered suggesting the possibility that he may still be alive. There were five thoughts I came away with: 1. A secret is no longer a secret when more than one person knows about it. 2. It only takes one decision to start a chain reaction and ruin your entire life. 3. Never underestimate anyone. You never know what a person will do if backed into a corner. 4. Never show your weaknesses. 5. Stop the blame game! You are accountable and responsible for the consequences of your actions. We all pay the price for the decisions we make. And there is a sixth one that came to mind….the grass always looks greener on the other side until you step in it and find out it was just manure. This will go on my rewatch list.
Goodbye Phun and Noh....I found the ending quite satisfying. Though I wished they hadn't taken so many detours…
Yes I was glad to see Jeed put in her place and Yuri sticking up for her friend. There is still too much bullying and gay bashing but hopefully we are moving in the right direction. Mauwin and Per provided another layer to the ups and downs faced by young gay adolescents. I loved how they maintained their resolve until the very end in spite of the father’s opposition.
I just finished and for me it was a perfect ending. We got a glimpse of how we hope the real world will be one day when people can love who they want without fear or shame. Loved the way Noh and Phun ‘’s family gave their approval and Phun’s father even gave the pitch for using protection. So he put it out front. They are having sex. There were other messages addressed also dealing with sexual identity and I really enjoyed seeing Jeed put in her place. It is obvious that times are changing which accounts for the difference in Love Sick 2014 and this one. Again , kudos to the production team for taking a chance on such a young cast. It was not as if they were acting….their behavior was so natural and accurately reflected the highs and lows of being a teenager. I am so impressed I am changing my rating from an 8.0 to 9.0. I have no doubt we will see each of these actors again. I would really like to see the whole group together in college. Until then take care. Now on to See Your Love and Heart Killers.
Wow! Ep 7 is so good! The older married woman was like a walk down memory lane. I actually knew a woman who had a good husband . A younger man came into the picture and she gave up everything for this man. I knew her husband. We all were close. They even had young children. In the end the guy dumped her. It had been his plan all along. Seems like he and the husband had had a disagreement over a business deal and this was his way of getting revenge. Even though it is years later when she says anything about that time in her life it is much different than what actually occurred. I guess that is why when people tell me about an incident I can empathize with them but I always wonder what is missing. It all depends. The young ballerina’s other side of the truth is riveting and I was not at all surprised by the businessman. Not looking forward to the end but I have come this far so I might as well ride this train until the end.
I am on ep6 and so far this is proving to be entertaining and in many ways a look at the how vulnerable we can be. I wanted to blame Fei Kei for causing so much heartache but he never twisted anyone’s arm. The choice they made was their own. It was their own insecurities and/or greed that led to their personal failures. There were so many red flags. But isnt that how life really is….a older woman longing for attention , a young girl with low self esteem, a greedy, domineering father, a closeted gay man looking for affection, a man broken in mind and spirit…..just ripe for the pickings. On to ep 7 and this is where I imagine it will get even more intriguing. There is never just one side to a story. Someone told me once there are three sides to the truth…..your side, their side and the other side. Nothing is ever all black or all white.
This is just an aside. I guess you can say I am a fashionista. Whoever is the clothes designer for this series is doing an A plus job. The selections truly are reflective of the character’s personalities. I especially love the sweater Hong Hui was wearing in ep 8. I cant wait until next week.
Ep 8 and so many secrets….love it! Someone mentioned about comments on the main actor’s physical looks. Personally I think it’s in the eye of the beholder. However, I think the casting is perfect. The ml and fl look natural and each is attractive in a very realistic way. I am not distracted by the model perfect physical appearances. I am mesmerized and invested in the plot and how it plays out in the end. I am sure the creators of this series were thinking the same thing. Kudos to the entire production team. We are seeing just how far people will go to achieve their ultimate quest for personal power and gain.
with these two.
