Elektraa

I’m feeling so sentimental over this series. I loved the ride so much and seeing OhmNanon get teary eyed while thanking their characters and saying goodbye to bad buddy just makes me so soft. I love bad buddy so much and I loved spending time with you guys in the comments. 😭

I can find some common ground with your take on bad buddy. My least fav eps all come from the second half of the series…particularly 6,7 and 9. There were also things that I blantantly ignored even though it bugged me ( some bad editing and soundtrack choices). Also as an angst buff, I think P’Aof was generous about keeping it relatively light compared to the source material. (I have to remember that this IS a romantic comedy). I def agree that more critical comments will pop up because many will hold judgement until the end or try to understand the hype they don’t see. That happens with every show.

However, despite its faults it still made it on my list of comfort shows. I’ve watched each episode at least 6-7 times now and rewatch it again every time I get a friend to start the series. Aha funny enough my ex and I are watching from the beginning and it’s lead to interesting convos about our old relationship. I personally love ep 12 among others.

Anyway thanks for sticking it out and chilling with everyone in the comments.

I was looking through my phone and I ran into a screen shot from Dec 11 when the rating was 9.2 ... it feels like a lifetime ago since aha.

The ep drops at 6:30am for me so nothing. But every other Friday I buy Thai milk tea boba from my fav boba shop for lunch. This week is boba week so I'll def enjoy that while I re-watch the ep.

Right! I refreshed twice just to make sure I wasn’t crazy.

Fingers crossed! I’ll try to keep an open and positive mind!

That 8.7 rating is hurting me. And so it begins.

I kinda always get that vibe from him too which makes me sometimes worry but I always keep positive because we still don’t know enough to make conclusion . Luckily he seems to have a very solid foundation of support and overall it seems he’s doing what he loves.

Kinda late to this discussion but on Salmon podcast he said the insomnia and depression was from not being able to work and feeling aimless. There was some burn out too but for him it seems he really enjoys working because it gives him a sense of purpose. He also said working on future projects helps him remove previous characters. So it’s kind of a catch 22 for him. He suffers when he can’t work but also suffers when he does work. I think he’s still figuring out what his balance is.

I’ve noticed for awhile now but is his head tilt considered a tick or just habit?

Ep 11 recap by ATH channel finally has Eng subs. They always do super deep analyses of the eps so I highly recommend! https://youtu.be/mNGE3Yz6BDA

Yes! Except Ohm is a year ahead of Nanon. I think he’s supposed to graduate this year and Nanon…well I read somewhere he’s been falling behind a bit. 😅

That’s so smart. I wish I’d known that earlier. Thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely use it in the future

I’m so happy we’re at 35k+ comments because it shows how popular and engaging the series is….but I’m a little sad because there’s no save or pin function for comments we want to keep/go back to. 😭 I was thinking about a comment I read here after EP 4 and I’ll never see that comment again.

So true! I’m new to bl so I was unfamiliar with Ohm until bad buddy and had only seen him in Blacklist. It wasn’t until BB that I realized how big Ohm is in his own rite based on his previous projects.

I think despite whether we as the audience came into BB as more Ohm or Nanon fans…we left the series appreciating /loving both for their talents!

It’s the same! YouTube version is always the uncut version. It’s just the live tv broadcasting that’s an edited version

You summed it up great! This is exactly how I felt about the ep. I cried because it’s bitter…it’s sweet…it’s mature. 🥺😭

Thanks! Because of this comment I scrambled to twitter lol

Yesss. Ep 11 is the best for me. I’m too emotional to explain it and need to sit with my feelings. I haven’t read the comments yet but for me feeling weird. Im not devastated. I’m feeling both warm/fuzzy but with an underlying tone of heartache. It’s that bittersweet kind of feeling and it’s so impactfully done. Uncle Tong’s words at the end coupled with the scenes with the new OST just had me tearing up and realizing that we can’t always live in a fairytale but we can still stand firmly even through these realities. There’s also so many more details I picked up but I gotta calm myself down emotionally first.

Hi. My name is elektraa and ep 11 of bb left me speechless. .. I have so many emotions. 🥺
