I thought people were exaggerating about the cake thing but I'm watching episode 1 for the first time and...are you serious?? Itt is a grown ass man but begs for cake every ten minutes?? make it make sense !! lol
I know Day and Itt's story is messed up and not funny but the scene with Day's friend reacting to their nonsense was hilarious. Like, I'm just gonna goooo... 🤣
I just find it a little suss that I often see people excusing toxic male character behavior but not tolerating similar behavior in women. I think even calling Doona toxic is reductive. She's complex, clearly dealing with mental health issues and one of the most interesting drama characters I've seen in a while.
I almost skipped this one because the synopsis seemed to similar to another J drama from earlier this year but I'm so glad I didn't. The whole drama is almost nothing but cliches but they're all hitting me in the feels. Also Yuki's actor is deceptively good. at first I thought he was too stiff but that's really just his character. you can really see his talent when his character acts in the show
I binged all the available episodes today and I'm hooked. My kind of toxicity and angst. My theory is that Ming only smiles around Tong because now in a weird way Tong reminds Ming of Joe. So Tong is now Joe's stand-in. Hence: My Stand-In. I haven't read the source material so I don't know if I'm off or not.
Me: Awww Phop's death was actually pretty sad... Ten minutes later: Ooooh so he deserved it though.
Noooooo why did they leave it open ended?! 😭😭😭 When I tell you I wailed when it said "after the credits" and "to be continued" I am not exaggerating. Don't get me wrong. the WTF nature of this series was hilarious and entertaining in its own way but I don't think I can handle another season of this! for my own sanity.
in pretty much any other drama a year long separation at the end would infuriate me. It's usually lazy and pointless. But having them spend time apart is the only thing that makes sense and fits for the FL. she needed to figure out who she was as her own person first.
