Viki is where I watched it.

I bet we are to assume Sora’s two friends helped take care of him.

But my question is why does Sora walk Hinata home on his back when he could have just called a taxi…? Seems unnecessary, especially when dealing with an inebriated person (I know it’s not alcohol, but he appears inebriated).

Also, as a club owner, wouldn’t you be suspicious that your customers became intoxicated from your non-alcoholic drinks?

There is someone in the comments already who spoiled it. I’m on the app so I can’t do a search, but they did put in all caps that it’s a “full spoiler”. They break it down for everyone who wants. 😊

It is a heavy read. All the paragraphs of details you don’t get in shows are there, and taking time to process it is definitely time consuming. That’s why I paused watching to read it. Now I’m just impatiently waiting for the last episode to drop so I can binge my heart out.

He is slowly becoming more self-confident, though, by this point. Though it’s really subtle. But he gets his before the show ends. People keep underestimating this sleeper agent and I’m looking forward to the comment section when he wakes up.

Absolutely! Shameless is the mildest way to put it. I’m looking forward to 2x speeding though those scenes because I always know how they’ll go.

My absolute fave BL is a JBL called Takara-kun & Amagi-kun. I’ve seen it so many times that I decided to buy the whole manga set- imported from Japan. it’s only in Japanese, so I’m painstakingly going through it page by page and translating it as I know I’ll read it over and over again. It didn’t have the abrupt ending like Perfect Propose, but I’ve always been hoping for an “after graduation” season 2. There are some really good JBLs out there. My Beauriful Man is one I watch repeatedly, too (2 seasons plus a movie). Along with My Personal Weatherman. None of them end abruptly or make me feel like I’m missing something when they end.

Oh. I remembered another one that does the abrupt end- Living With Him. Though it’s another one I’ve watched more than a few times.

He needs to take a long walk off a short plank in the waters of South Africa (plenty of 🦈 🦈 🦈friends to play with there).

A slap would be too tame for him…unless it’s with a metal bat or a 🧱or 🪨… He needs a cranium realignment at minimum.

To extend the trauma of the viewers, of course.

He’s truly a despicable character. The actor is doing a great job portraying him.

Well said. Did you, perhaps, read the novel, too?

It gets revealed later (in the novel) why he treats him the way he does (his mom is f*cking crazy crazy)- though, to me, it doesn’t excuse him and I really felt like he didn’t need to go THAT far. I also think he maybe could have explained to Xaio Fan at some point early in the relationship the reason why. But maybe not because then the twist at the end won’t happen, and that’s the cherry on top satisfaction- at least, for me it is- so I kinda get why he doesn’t. IDK… I’m just chilling a bit on the fence, toddling back and forth like a seesaw with this story.

He will, in fact, get a backbone. I promise. We are supposed to feel this way about him at this point though.

All I want to say to those angry right now is that XIAO FAN gets HIS payback in the end (in the novel, he does). One could kinda liken him to a sleeper agent, if you will. Those who’ve read the novel completely will understand what I mean.

I paused this after episode 4 after reading the novel, because I KNEW the coming episodes would piss me all the way off- From viewers’ regular comments here and on IG edits, it sounds like the cast continues to do an amazing job portraying the traits of their characters through the storyline, so it looks like I made a good choice to wait until the end. Because even though I KNOW what’s coming, watching it play out on screen every week will just have me feeling some kinda way, just like y’all.

They truly are the worst. His mom is the only one with any redeeming quality. After reading the novel, I stand firm in this. Though she’s not SUPER amazing, she got better in the novel at supporting Xiao Fan and chastising his brother and father. Though I think she could and SHOULD have done WAY more than she did. Overall, they’re a family he could do without. They really are horrible for no real reason. Putting all their hopes and dreams and energy and faith into such a horrible human as the first son and completely disregarding that their second son is even a human with feelings and that maybe he would like a life and hopes and dreams, too. They turn him into a “nothing” that is expected to sacrifice even his dignity for them and the eldest. And remain blind to what they’re doing to him for way too long for my peace of mind. I would literally never forgive the father and brother ever. ESPECIALLY the brother. He could grovel at my feet for a month in the snow and sleet, eating rotten produce and tree branches and I would still walk past him dressed in my warmest clothes and eating something delicious while laughing on my phone with a friend as I pass. Let him see me living my life unconcerned about him in the slightest because fuck him and his unempathetic, non-brotherly, sorry excuse for a human self. (The author did a REALLY good job making him a truly detestable character with ZERO good qualities.)

I’m dying with a cold grudge (but I’m a Scorpio, so…).

Yes, I think that maybe would have given me more closure. It kinda felt like some Japanese feel-good BLs- where the ending starts at a weird time so you doubt it’s the end (like, no credits because they were rolling during said scene- the screen just freezes at the end)- like with Perfect Propose.

End End Credits?! No. I just closed when it minimized my screen.

Just watched it and it was a twist I hadn’t expected tbh. I also wish Viki had translated the text that popped up on the screen at the end end. Since I can’t screenshot to translate, I have to get creative (if I feel like it). Maybe that part will settle it more for me. Yhough this makes me feel like the story has a bit more closure, I still feel like the ZX and ZZ story shouldn’t be so abrupt- especially if it was the fictional one. This means an editor could have had the author make the ending more final rather than cut off. It would likely have a little more substance to it.

This commenter did say it was their own opinion with “I” statements. Why return with such a targeted comment to judge their opinion based on how they rated what they liked? Did they judge you specifically? No; they just mentioned not seeing what others see in this particular drama- which is fine. There has to be a drama or 10 you’ve watched that you disliked but others thought were masterpieces. I know I do. Do I hate on those who dislike the ones I love? No, because it won’t alter my enjoyment of that drama. (A lot of people hated on Key of the Phoenix Heart because of the real life age gap, but it’s a really good drama that I really enjoyed.) We are all unique and have our own likes and dislikes. Not every drama is for everyone.
