Trying to fill up the time until the next episodes. Rewatching Addicted…my take on the two: Addicted - Bold, audacious, rough and gritty, sexual tension Stay With Me - Sweet, sincere, heartwarming and full of sensual innocence I love both .
The good news is we only have four more episodes left so we will have to endure at least two episodes of this arranged marriage trope. I must say our guy looked like a total wimp sitting there next to his ditsy fiancee. When I see scenes like this it makes me happy I am not rich and privileged . The person I felt most sorry for was the sister’s son. Poor child…neither his mom nor his dad seem to care for him. Looks like the old man sacrificed love and happiness for King land and the daughter is willing to do the same. Will our ml follow suit all in the name of money and prestige. He just might.
FL's friend, Kang Da Eul, disappoints me.They should have just made her a third roommate instead of a neglectful…
I feel that way about DaEul too! If her child was older I could understand. I also hate it when women are characterized as having to be docile and the good little wife/dil. My dil takes no stuff from my son or me. That’s one of the things I love about her. Still, I am going to ride this out and hope for the best.
I am so thirsty for more of my two guys but I know there is more drama coming. To placate me somewhat I am even rewatching the original Addicted. Please let this awful exgf get a royal kick in the ass. She reminds me of that awful witch in the series Together.
FYI…I just saw that the screenwriter is the same one who wrote Advance Bravely. Interesting….I love Advance Bravely . It was full of innuendo and sexual chemistry without any direct contact. That was 2017. Maybe time will bring about a change in 2023 . If not I am still enjoying the ride.
I am liking how this starts off. Both mls are really cute in their own way. Storyline is interesting enough to keep me wanting more. Is there already a rival waiting in the wings?
Guys I have faith on the writers to wrap up the snake’s plot very soon. I mean we literally saw SuYu not caring…
Since there are 24 episodes the powers that be are not finished stomping on our hearts. Tighten your seatbelt. I saw a clip on twitter that crushed my heart! I just hope people dont get angry and retaliate by messing with the scores. Our two guys are doing a phenomenal job. To Sir With Love got a 8.3, My School President got 8.6. A Boss and a Babe got 8.3. This merits at least an 8.5 if the writer does not mess it up.
It should be even higher. This is a gem! I usually skip pass the exgf parts but the way they have written the character I just cant wait for her to get the boot permanently. The uncle needs to go too but the entire cast is doing an awesome job!
I knew the storm was coming and I braced myself….but I still wasnt prepared. Of course, the episode was brilliant! I will have to suffer through the next four episodes. Hopefully, by ep 16 the worst will be over. I really hate the exgf trope .
Let me disagree a bit when it comes to Thai productions. I was not able to finish ITSAY - it just never pulled…
Interesting….I just have not found any Philippine bl appealing. The Viet Nam bls may be low budget but I like their storyline development and the ability of the actors. There are so many Thai bls I either like or don’t like. This year alone I have already watched at least 15. My favorites are Moonlight Chicken, Never Let Me Go , KinnPorsche, and the current Be My Favorite. Korean bls have been on a roll. My favorites from 2022 were Semantic Error, To My Star 2, Blueming and Cherry Blossoms After Winter. My favorite 2023 bls so far are The Eighth Sense, Love Tractor, Our Dating Sim and Unintentional Love Story. My favorite Japanese bl is Life, Love on the Line(movie), Minatos Laundromat and the 2023 Our Dining Table. I didn’t even know about the bl genre until the Covid shutdown. That was in 2020. Excluding NBA basketball and NFL football ( yes I am a straight ,conservative female who enjoys sports and bls) that is basically all I watch now….and my kdramas. There is so much to choose from. I enjoy Inventive storylines that think outside the box and sweet, wholesome romances. I also love those bls that tackle current social and cultural issues affecting the gay communities. I am not opposed to sex and skin but it needs to make sense . That is why I watched Bed Friends and Love is in the Air and have them on my rewatch list. Please forgive my endless ranting. Take care. After tomorrow we will be at the halfway mark for Stay With Me. I just hope we get a happy ending. That is a major criteria for getting on my rewatch list. I already have too much sadness in my real life.
I am sorry but 8.1 rating is an insult to this series! This is a 8.6 rating drama!! I badly want to rate 100/10…
I agree but I have come to realize that there is an obvious bias when it comes to bl ratings. If the fans do not like how a character is shown or the storyline they will purposely manipulate the scoring to give it a lower rating. It has nothing to do with the development of the plot or the acting ability of the artist. In some cases they have even posted insults and threats to the actors/writers/dtrectors. I am puzzled and dismayed by this because this is not the case with dramas that depict adultery, greed, physical and emotional abuse, etc. If the acting is good and there is a plausible storyline the ratings reflect that which is how it should be…but bls are not afforded the same respect in my opinion. That is why I generally dont even look at the ratings until I have watched at least two or three episodes. I feel most sorry for the actors and actresses. Imagine you going to work and doing a really great job but you only get paid half your salary because one or two customers did not like the product they purchased.
