the way ep 13 ended is making me a lil saddddd, can 21st july hurry up so that i can see them again 😭
At the end of Ep 13, that was a flashback to a previous life in which they weren't able to stay together.
In their present life, they are together and happy. They decide to create code words so that in any future lives, they will be able to find each other again because they know they're meant to be together.
OK....this is PURE SPECULATION on my part......but does anyone else get the feeling that Jade and his mystery guy, Lit, are in a dom/sub kind of relationship?
I say that because of the way Jade reacted the few times we saw him talk to Lit on the phone. He was practically vibrating in anticipation during and after each call. Also from the way Lit spoke......like he was almost edging Jade.
If we are indeed to get at least a S2 for Top Form, it might turn out to be **quite** the NC show, lol.
OK, who else besides me was BAWLING and SMILING at the same time, all the way through the last 15 minutes of the episode starting from the scene where they walked into their new house?
I love the way this series ended. And the music was perfect.
The very last scene, though......it *almost* felt like a set-up for a Season 2? But even if it wasn't, and even though all of the questions (like WHO is Jade's lover, Lit, and why were they so mysterious about him?) didn't get answered, I'm happy.
In fact, I'd actually prefer if there wasn't a Season 2. So many shows that turn out really well make the mistake of thinking they can re-capture the magic of the first season, and more often than not, it just fails. I would hate for anything to happen like that with Top Form.
Xiao Lin is trapped by his culture, which expects him to get married and produce children. The homophobia he feels all around him is palpable, and he decides to retreat further into the closet because of the pressure to live a heteronormative existence.
At the end, we see him refusing to accept himself. Instead, because of the expectations placed on him by his family, we see the groundwork being laid toward a future life he does not want, married to someone he will not love nor be attracted to.
But man, if I see another interminably long slow-approach kiss I'm going to scream. I could literally have gotten pregnant, carried the baby for 9 months and then my kid would be in Kindergarten already by the time their lips meet!!!
I will never understand movies and series where the characters are in a crowd of people......in this case while ALSO being pursued, so they don't know who to trust.......and they just start talking out loud about their plans, their secrets, their disguises, their methods of escape, their allies, their enemies, etc......RIGHT THERE where people can hear them.
I will never understand that. Every time I see it in a series or a movie, I laugh. But it's frustrating, too.

No, he definitely survived. There have been scenes in the trailer with him that have not yet been shown, and the…
So Dean's death was faked.
In that case it would have to be a cooperative thing between the guy who shot at him (using blanks instead of real bullets) and Dean himself, who fell at *just* the right time (knowing the bullets were fake) to make it look like he'd been shot.

Incredible cast - especially the young actress that plays the little girl. She's phenomenal.

Heartbreaking.
I hope they have a BANGER soundtrack again, like in Season 1. The "Backpackers" opening OST was especially good.

JUST KISS ALREADY, geez!!
