I agree, and furthermore I didn't even do that. I was referring to the CHARACTER.

So Young is So Irritating.

I feel bad for Gi Chan, who was such a charismatic lead in the most groundbreaking Korean BL but now ends up slumming in this nonsense. I'd say I hope he got paid well but the budget for this was clearly next to nothing.

The girl is excruciating. I hated her within 20 seconds. Who creates and casts such annoying characters, thinking they add something? She ruins every scene she's in, which unfortunately is most of them.

I'll come back for another couple of episodes to see if it improves.

I remembered that So told Saint that he likes Mon so it might turn out that Saint spills the beans to Mon at some point, and Mon then goes back to So and won't take no for an answer.

I'm still unsure if Mickey did it just to prove a point during their conversation or if there was a real attraction there.

Mickey does seem to get a bit touchy-feelie with Q when riding behind him on the motorcycle ...

That is excellent!

It's simply brilliant.

The MV is completely unassociated with the series and celebrates a m/f relationship. Was the song originally released pre-series? I would've expected more of a tie-in to promote the finale for "Teddy Bear".

With the many posts on Twitter and Instagram where Job and In are appearing as a couple I think the endgame for "Miracle of the Teddy Bear" is locked in. I haven't seen one where Judo ("Tarn") is included, and of course in the cast he is a supporting player rather than a main lead.

Sure, I could be wrong to read the tea leaves this way, but for them to give us so many Job/In public moments and then make Nut and Tarn the final pair would be self-defeating.

For me So's little twisting of the knife at the end of that conversation with Mon was uncharacteristically mean and insensitive. Yes, I know he is trying to do everything he can to keep Mon from attaching to him even as he himself is crushing on Mon bigtime, but he was such a jerk in that conversation that I feel he deserves to be alone now. Mon should get with Saint, who is proving not to be the shallow egotist I thought he was after his first appearance.

The doctor told her she's showing symptoms of Alzheimer's but the diagnosis isn't final yet. Maybe it will turn out to be a mistake and she just needs to stay more hydrated lol.

Tofu would have no trouble finding a man. Bears have their own niche of popularity in the gay community. 😉

Oh! I'll have to look for that!

They'd better explain the reason that Tofu looks like Neung. If they don't it would leave a glaring hole in what is a tidy story.

I really like your speculations! I'm skeptical about Neung having liked Nut in return because we never saw him even glance Nut's way. I also don't like it when a story fails to give us the proper clues to the outcome and instead pulls a rabbit out of a hat at the last minute.

Although maybe the clue has been right under our nose for all these 13 episodes, with Tofu looking exactly like Neung.

I sure hope that in Episode 14 they're not going to have Jan and Saen plot to kill Tofu. I have wondered if there will be a period of time where Nut loses Tofu for some reason, making Nut truly appreciate who Tofu is, but I'll be rolling my eyes if it turns out that Jan and Saen kidnap Tofu and try to kill him. Even for a series where a teddy bear turns into a human that just isn't realistic lol.

With Tofu and Nut both promising to be there for each other no matter what, it would send a terrible message for Nut to drop Tofu after his ex wakes up. The relationship he has built with Tofu is lightyears beyond what he had with Tarn. Yes, Tarn served a crucial role in Nut's life journey, but (as Nut himself acknowledged) people change.

Then of course there is that earlier hint that Tofu really *is* Tarn. As the series progresses I'm starting not to like that idea. There are too many elements of Tofu's personality that are nothing like Tarn's.

Honestly, I wait until an episode is up and just jump through it, looking for the NuerSyn scenes. I hate that this adds to the viewership total because it will only encourage Mandee to commit a similar atrocity in the future.

It's a sterile series, not helped by the heaps of face-smoothing.

Great answer.

It transcends the BL genre more than any series I can remember. I'm constantly in awe at the issues it explores and the emotion it brings out in me.
