I think the series with the most mind-numbing languors would have to be "Until We Meet Again" ... but then I haven't yet watched "Be Loved In House" past Episode Four lol.

I thought the writing and direction for this episode was very good. The conversations between the boys felt natural and their chemistry really started to show. Perhaps Mean had to settle into his role as director, but with so many elements coming together this is the episode that has "sold" this series to me.

I also liked how both Phob and Nut were happy over becoming intimate. Phob especially couldn't stop bringing it up -- and that's exactly how someone should be when they'd dreamed about it, wished for it, and finally got it. Sex should be a joyful experience! That was one of my favorite "morning after" scenes ever.

The BTS interview was wonderful. They're both such bright and engaging guys, and it was nice to see how completely at ease (and enthusiastic) they are to be acting in a BL series.

That was him ??!!! OMG they did him so wrong in that series.

I interpreted the title as Leo thinking this as he asked Fiat to be his boyfriend. But there are lots of other meaning to consider.

I get the sense it will be more of a "trust" trope. I don't expect that either guy with cheat on the other, but there will be temptations galore and lots of misunderstandings.

There will also be the specter of Fiat's past, probably with a few of his past tricks popping up here and there.

LMAOOOOOOO!

Thank you for your reply. You've taught me something important, and I've changed the word "monogamy" to "commitment".

The scene with Na Bi's aunt bothered me so much. Her aunt has the perceptive skills of a gnat. I guess we're supposed to take it as just another instance of a woman being smitten by Jae Eon's mindblowing charisma -- to the extent that her motherly instincts go out the window and she lets the smug a-hole invade her niece's one remaining sanctuary.

It's frustrating. Does her aunt think that Na Bi spent several days in retreat on a whim?

The only believable outcome of this story is for Na Bi to become a female version of Jae Eon. In the preview for next week they're teasing the idea that Jae Eon is making a shift into a post-slut existence, ready for commitment at last. Baloney!

If this series has any integrity at all, it will stay true to Jae Eon's amoral nature and have him flee the country (and Na Bi) after his final victory of making her reject Do Hyuk. At this point she deserves to be alone and abandoned.

It would be completely logical to have the final scene of the final episode be Na Bi back at the bar picking up a guy who's seated in the same barstool as she was in Episode One.

Keep in mind that following the opening scene of the first episode the entire series has been a 2-year flashback. So if they are too young to kiss in high school they won't be too young to kiss in the timeframe of the story's beginning, which we'll return to by the end of the series.

This also confirms for me that he is endgame. Some might say they're setting us up to be super disappointed that Shinwoo doesn't end up with TK, but I think they're taking the time to establish him as someone who only wins by playing fair and caring about everyone's feelings.

(This is what I think that line in the preview is about: "No matter what I do, he is still thinking of you." ... or whatever it was ... By the end of the series it will be clear to everyone that Shinwoo won fair and square, and was open and honest even when he sensed he was at a disadvantage.)

For TK to end up with Daon would excite many people but to me Daon needs to work through that "love yourself" phase before he could truly love TK. Shinwoo on the other hand has gone through those trials of facing himself and knowing who he himself really is. He is ready to show sincere love for another person.

This is such a terrific comment. I think you speak for all of us! :)

In Asian drama I get the sense that skinship is a matter of degree. One guy putting his arm around the shoulder of another is fine but if they hold hands then that's too intimate.

Another thing I've noticed is that there's a lot of holding onto the wrist as opposed to clasping of hands, and it's treated just as scandalously.

The only thing lacking in this episode was Tae Kyung outright asking Shin Woo why he had treated him so hostilely in the beginning. For a second it looked like their conversation was going there.

Otherwise this was an episode packed with excitement and romance. They're still keeping us guessing on the endgame but after today I am firmly in Shin Woo's camp and hope they'll be able to create a relationship between him and Tae Kyung that isn't based on rebound.

For once I need to see a selfish character like her end up facing consequences. This director's prior two series (the "Best Mistakes") both feature conniving characters who get their own little redemption arc at the end. So I won't be surprised if So Hee has a miraculous personality change in the final episodes.

It's frustrating but I'm willing to accept it if Tae Kyung and Shin Woo end up together.

Gives off the vibe of a "Reply" Kdrama series. This one could turn out to be a classic.

I've thought about that, and since the series is essentially a flashback of two years after the very first scene at the beach I've wondered if this was a way to assure us that Shinwoo would be more than just a rebound.

Now on iQIYI International with English subs and viewable in the USA!

LOL, no, the writing is really that bad.

I can answer the question about the original beef.

Nut sat at a table where Satha and his friends usually sit. He had no way of knowing it was their usual table, of course, but Satha confronted him angrily anyway. Later, Satha also made a stink about Nut joining the Photography Club.

I don't think there will ever again be anything to watch that's as bad as this. I've actually dropped series that were better, but this is so terrible that I need to see how it ends.

My last hope is that somehow they'll develop Jedi and Nanon as a side couple.
