I enjoyed it but never really got invested in the relationship between the two main characters. And as the final episode ended I didn't have a compelling need to know what happens next.
I was honestly more worried that they wouldn't show us Eun Gyu with his new haircut. :)
So for me this series is a confection that I could enjoy while watching it but then have no problem moving on to the next.
If the movie *furthers* the story instead of just compiling all the episodes into one, maybe that will turn the whole thing around. I'm looking forward to seeing what the movie brings us.
(P.S., is it just me who thinks Kim Yoo Hwan looks uncannily like New Thitipoom?)
Humor about food that the chef doesn't realize tastes bad has been done thousands of times but that scene made me LOL for real.
Given the first episode and the preview for next week I'd say that if this *doesn't* end up with the three guys in a relationship together it will be a huge fakeout and a major disappointment.
It was interesting that both couples had intimate scenes, and Leo & Fiat's was quite a bit more explicit, but…
I don't bother with the love scenes between Leo and Fiat anymore. They look 100% choreographed and the actors don't seem comfortable. I skipped today's, and from what I'm reading here it doesn't sound like I missed anything new.
But I do miss the in-your-face Fiat. He's much better as a bad boy. In TT2 he was disagreeable but sexy. In this series his helplessness has neutered the character for me.
You hit the nail on the head when you say that Pob is innocent and inexperienced but not weak.
I've finished watching it. Oniranu oshi. Anyways. Back to my spinoff idea of leo and fiat's friends. The older…
I think Anda is really hot. I say that as a gay man, but whoever styled her really pitched it just right. A storyline with her and Nat as a couple would be so much fun.
I think that Ja and First still do "cuddling" exceptionally well. When they snuggle up it looks relaxed and genuine. As soon as they go farther, though, I can barely watch. In fact I skipped over their love scene today.
But that intimate scene with Smart and James. Wow! So sexy yet so tender. When it started with Pob saying "Thank you for waiting," I was truly touched. Then I was worried they'd cut away before Leon finished unbuttoning and removing his shirt, but they didn't, and I really liked the way Leon kissed Pob before finally revealing his beautiful body. The exchange that came immediately after that ("Look at me, Pob ...") was very sweet.
Damn, I get butterflies just thinking about it!
Honestly, I've wondered how Mame would even be capable of writing the Leon-Pob side story with so much insight and care. But then I remember that Ae was a sensitive lover to Pete in LBC. I wish she would stick to that kind of character and plot.
As for the final moments of the episode, I know there will be some wacky explanation for what Fiat saw so I'm not worked up about it.
One of the BL accounts I follow on Twitter says that a movie is coming in October. Hopefully it will be a continuation of the story and not a shortened rehash of the series.
Where can this be watched besides Viki? They have two episodes out with 85% translation. (I know, I know, they…
If the subbers don't bother to subtitle the incidental signs and notes (like the post-it that Hae Won read on the wall of the stairway) then the total will never equal 100%.
"seems to instantly dislike him" Did the person who wrote the summary even watch the first 2 episodes?! Boy's…
Maybe the trouble doesn't start until after he gets hired. I suspect that the "problem" the owner will have is that he's attracted to the newbie and doesn't like the attention he's getting from others. :)
Can someone who likes this explain why? I'm trying to understand. I can see why people love Leon & Pob - they're…
The series has disappointed me so much. Fiat has no spark. His relationship with Leo is a yawner.
With less than a minute on-screen again this week, Nam stole the show. I just want to rip open the rest of that shirt and throw him on the bed. Jesus H Christ.

Cdramas do this a lot.
