Foreigner

"If I had a choice to do something about that scene, I would open the door like Adachi did in episode 2".

It reminded me of your post in the feeds (https://kisskh.at/profile/RandamUsagi/feeds/Xzpl8C8). Akaso is one of us XD

I rewatched episodes 6-8 today, out of nostalgia. Well, I found myself smiling like an idiot, trembling with joy and covering my face to stop the overwhelming happiness that was running through my veins. I clearly haven't got over them yet, but honestly, I don't think I'll ever do. Cherry Magic is just unforgettable. The story and the characters might be fictional, but the emotions that I felt -- and that I still feel -- while watching it are real. How can I forget this feeling? How can I erase this whole experience from my memory? All the conversations I had about the series, all the interviews I read, all the things I did in this community (finding the shooting locations, helping Nanakor with the timeline, sharing info about the series or the actors...). It's impossible. I can't forget it.

Yes, that could be it. If it's like this, then I'm happy because this new plot feels original and refreshing. The "wolf" male lead is way too stereotypical and overused in Thai BLs.

You need to request it in the forum. It's very easy: click on the link below and write a comment with the URL of the drama page and the URL of the trailer (you can use the comments of the other users as reference) ^^

I knew that Machida was good at dancing, but wow, I'm still impressed. His smooth moves in Follow Me are a feast for the eyes. Thanks for sharing ^^

Wow, thanks for sharing this. I can only imagine how tough it must have been for him in the past 10 years. I mean, acting is his job. Getting only minor roles for such a long time must be frustrating and very demoralizing. As you say, unfortunately talent and good looks are not enough when the competition is so fierce. Getting lost in the crowd of aspiring stars is just too easy. That's why now I'm even happier for his hard and well-earned breakthrough. I hope that his amazing performance in Cherry Magic won't go unnoticed and that the current rise in his popularity will bring him more work, main roles and a successful, long-lasting career.

Thanks for the explanation ^^

OMG, no, wait! You are right! It has all the cuts! Sorry, I still don't know how Bilibili works ><'

This is taken from the live stream. It's only the cut of the red carpet, but thanks for sharing! I was looking for the HD version of that clip ^^

Thank you ^^

Thank you! Akaso's smile when he received the award was so bright ^^

OMG, that's a great news! Thanks for sharing it!

You've worked hard, Hikari :')

They have revealed the guest stars that will play the customers in the first 3 episodes. From Chii's Twitter account:

"Ep 1: Otomo Karen, playing a designer in an advertising agency who's pushed around by her clients.

Ep 2: Murakawa Eri, playing an actress who's worried about juggling both children and work.

Ep 3: Kondo Yoshimasa, playing a soon-to-retire office worker, and Matsuoka Kodai, playing a junior from Chef Nakauchi's time working in a high-end restaurant."

I still hope that Akaso will make a cameo appearence ><

AKASO AT WEIBO ACCOUNT FESTIVAL IN TOKYO 2020.

Akaso won the award for Hot Topic / Popular Actor!
In the interview that Akaso gave after the awards ceremony, he said that he is really happy to be recognized like this, even though he debuted only 6 years ago. He always works hard to make each of his productions good. He has received many comments saying things like "even though the world is so tough right now, watching this drama saved my heart". He also said that the change in his busyness hasn't really affected him. He was able to relax during the Year End and New Year's holidays. He said that some of the things he's been filming are still not out. And then there's this really cute thing: before leaving, he asked the press to let him introduce himself in Chinese because he forgot to do it during the awards ceremony and he was a bit frustrated (it's this part: https://youtu.be/6ygLPJ-g7HA?t=206; he started by saying "ah, can I ask one last thing? ><).

(I'll keep updating this if I find new or better sources)

No, in this case the word "wolf" has a very specific meaning: it refers to a libertine man who takes pleasure in seducing his "preys" and abandons them soon after. A Don Juan. So Aprillen is right, because there was nothing in the trailer that suggested that. I'm also confused.

You're welcome :)

For those who are interested, Chii has translated Akaso's interview with Anan magazine: https://twitter.com/motivateanger/status/1357003416220831747.

Right. Plus, from the preview of episode 5, it looks like half of the episode will be completely original. I'm looking forward to seeing how they will connect all the storylines and characters at the end.

The fact that even in the female version Kurosawa is the one who takes care of his external image (see the make-up, the hairstyle...) makes it very accurate ><

No, thank you for sharing this! You know that we are all craving for more Akaso and Machida-related contents here! I can't wait to watch the actual episode *heart eyes*

P.S. I keep looking at those pictures and... wow, he is so hot. The way Akaso's aura changes depending on the character he plays is simply incredible :O
