They've done such a good job of establishing Hyeon as a nutcase that it's going to be hard to believe he can calm down enough to have a healthy relationship with Eunho. As things stand right now I could easily see him murdering Eunho because "if I can't have him, nobody can!" (like in Secret Relationships.)
My only real quibble is that the actor for Hyeon doesn't look remotely like he's still in high school.
And oh, how far we've come since that sterile kiss at the end of Where Your Eyes Linger!
Given all the series with the "popular guy pursues the shy nerd" trope, when they include a whole group of popular guys who accepts the shy nerd, has there ever been a group where they weren't so immediately nice and instead needed time to be won over?
I wonder: Is Takeuchi (the one with the glasses) into Suzuki or Serizawa? I had the feeling that in the last scene…
Between Suzuki and Serizawa I think the one Takeuchi would most likely be attracted to is Suzuki. I say this only because Takeuchi has twice corrected Serizawa when Serizawa refers to Suzuki as "my Suzuki", telling him it's "our" Suzuki. Aside from that I think the other scenes could be viewed either way.
I can see a possible second couple in the form of Takeuchi ("glasses friend" lol) and Matsuno. Matsuno's eyes just yearn so much while Takeuchi gives off such a vibe. Let's go! 😄
I'm sure that Matsuno had reassured himself that he wasn't as bad as the other two magpies who shunned Suzuki because he didn't actively join in the mockery. Yet you still could say he's worse than the other two for simply not speaking up, because he'd had a real closeness to Suzuki. It put his distancing at another level of hurt.
It also made it especially satisfying to see Matsuno get dumped into the same "ex-friend" bucket as the other two. And how nice it was that Suzuki didn't simply refer to them as friends from a past year, but specifically as "ex" friends.
That scene has to be one of the most satisfying I've ever seen in a series.
I wonder if Putter was using his other account to confide in Indy about the situation with Lee, which then motivated Indy to test Lee's level of trust in him by prodding him about Putter. It would explain how Indy knew exactly where Putter and Lee were when they were on their date. Putter told him.
He was giving 2ML vibes at the end LOL like he's been pining for Suzuki but confronted with the flirty interaction…
He's prominent in the cast list since he's shown right after the two leads and Serizawa's three friends. I was wondering how the series would fill11 episodes but now I sense some drama on the way and I'm seated for it!
Serizawa does have a certain aura, I'd be nervous around him too. I think the most unbelievable part of this series is the idea that anyone can write a proper novel with someone hanging over his shoulder the whole time. 😅
At the end of the episode Suzuki's friend watching them seems jealous. This could get interesting.
Chrome works.
