I think it's funny that the director of the Japanese project is depicted as pervy for staring at the actors during the kiss scenes, and yet the director of this actual drama is depicting a couple 99% made of semi-explicit sex scenes. You can't have it both ways lol.
I am holding my opinion until the end of the drama. The writer is clearly writing with a sensitivity to things…
I'm definitely keeping the country's context in mind. S Korea is early in it's LGBT representation journey on television, and could still be in the realm "of any representation is good representation". But even within the few examples in mainstream dramas I have felt spoiled though, like Life is Beautiful or Prison Playbook. I feel like they are entering the stage where we should be able to hope for more and better. I agree about holding my judgement until the whole drama is over though, but his glare at the FL at the end didn't feel promising.
I really liked that it was the FL who decided not to go with him. I was afraid it would be a dumb misunderstanding or her fiance would lock her up or something, so I was really relieved it was an intentional character choice.
I really could have done without the conniving gay character in love with the ML. It just feels very early 2000s gay stereotypes. It's realistic that a gay man back then would have a one sided love but I think for a modern show his story didn't add value and played into harmful cliches. Curious if anyone has a vastly different opinion to mine.
Holy crap, Gong Shang Jue reprimanding like he is in charge. I also, kinda don't like these elders. Also, Gong…
I love her so much. She is so over the top compared to everyone else but she just makes it work. She is very much needed comedic relief in this dark series.
I don't personally understand viewers who want all main characters to start off a show without flaws. IMO a worthwhile…
I also think her backstory also appropriately explains why she lies so much. It does not excuse it but it does make sense. She was used to things being taken away from her so she was willing to use any means possible to keep what she has. And the show doesn't present her lying as right. the point is she needs to grow away from it. Anyway this is probably too much analysis for a largely silly show
I don't personally understand viewers who want all main characters to start off a show without flaws. IMO a worthwhile story has character growth. it's totally fair to drop this if lying particularly bothers you, but for others I recommend giving this a real try. The growth by the end in the FL and their relationship is pretty nice.
can someone help me solve a mystery? I'm in the US and I swear I watched the first episode on iQiyi and then the show vanished. Does anyone know if there is any country where the show is still on iQiyi?
As a former intern who had worked in an American Office environment, I swear it doesn't go down like the two Juns…
It drives me crazy, especially in Japanese dramas, when a character is like "this guy kissed me on the lips. It must be because he spent time in America and that's how Americans greet each other."
Underrated gem. It was so refreshing to have a love triangle where both options were fundamentally decent and kind people who supported the FL completely.
I could not get into this show after two episodes, but after episode 3? I got so engrossed and binged the other five episodes lol. My favorite part (no pun intended) is how they showed Pisaeng's acceptance of his sexuality. I prefer BL dramas that don't take place in "magical everybody is gay and no one cares land."
Iqiyi subs are a mess but its better than nothing i guess...ive been waiting for this since the announcement after…
I think they use auto translate when it first comes out and then actually sub it a little later so if you try in a couple days they might be better on iQiyi

Only if they're dating! 🤣🤣
