Just had a random realization šIāve watched way more C-dramas than K-dramas⦠but somehow still havenāt…
I guess it depends on the type of drama youāre watching. Also, itās easy to sit for a 16 episode drama rewatch- a bit harder when itās a 40 episode rewatch. Fangs of Fortune is my frequent rewatch, though. I love it a little too much, I think.
Y'all plz help me get over poj š I can't seem to find any other good dramas after this. Plz give me some really…
I enjoyed Fated Hearts. If you donāt mind more martial arts-heavy time period dramas, Fangs of Fortune has never left me. Hearing the OST brings me right back every time. Unclouded Soul, too. A Whisper of Fate⦠I love and vividly remember all of these cdramas.
oh I envy you that you are watching it for the first time now
I waited on purpose. Iāve been doing that lately- watching just-finished drama while waiting for the new ones to finish. I hate waiting for each episode to air. it was hard though because IG spoilers were everywhere.
What a sweet episode. ngl I thought- like everyone else- that āsomethingā quite different was gonna go down at Duangās house⦠But this was just as good imo. I love that Qing trusts Duang enough to open up so completely about his childhood trauma. And Duang is so emotionally mature, even if heās silly at times- heās serious when it counts. He is the perfect person to heal Quinn without the task being burdensome to him. I love the level of acting weāre getting from TeeTee and Por. These two have great chemistry and work so well together. And letās be real- these characters were šÆ written for them. Im looking forward to the last two episodes. Iām gonna binge the whole series all the way through whe itās over.
Unfortunately a 23 year old and an 18 year old can be in a relationship. Doesn't mean he groomed him. This makes…
The issue is that Akira was new to high school when the two started hooking up- based on the flashbacks. So he was definitely younger than the 18 at the time. Japan only recently lowered their legal age of adulthood from 20 to 18 (back in 2022). If heās just entered high school, he had to be no more than 15 or 16 when they started things. Either way, heās too young to be getting busy with a now-23 year old. Likely itās been about a year or 2 since they started hooking up. Either way, he was a legal minor at the time, while the ātutorā was always a legal adult. They are 5 years apart. If they got together when Akira was 16, Tutor Guy was 21. Unfortunately, the legal age of consent in Japan has been 13 until very recently (2024- raised to 16). I teach high schoolers- none of them should be making such potentially life-altering decisions at this age. Most are very easily influenced by older people.
I donāt really think Tutor is a bad person. I think heās lonely and feeling some kind of way because he has unrequited love for Akiraās straight brother, so sympathizes with Akira from when he had unrequited feelings for his straight friend. Itās also kind of a twisted way to be closer to the brother, maybe? They mutually decide to seek comfort in each other until Akira wants to end things. It looks like Tutor is giving Akira control, but due to his inferiority complex (both when comparing against his brother and for being a gay boy who was bullied by his straight friend once that friend found out he was gay and liked him), he doesnāt want to end things with Tutor. Heās unsure of Kanataās feelings and thinks heās straight. He doesnāt want to be hurt again.
I put a spoiler tag because I think I share things not yet known- I donāt remember because I watched the non-subtitled full episodes on Bilibili already).
This is my 12th revisit. I love these two and this drama. Are there some parts that still donāt make sense- even after seeing it 13 times? Yes. But not enough to keep me from loving this series. itās a 9/10 for me- the minus 1 is for the parts that remain unexplained/donāt quite make sense due to editing or scriptwriting.
"Do your best to handle me" THE SCREAM I LET OUT OMFGGGGG
When I saw TeeTee- I mean Duangās smile, I was like, Bro just unlocked another level. š„š„µš„TeeTee- I mean Duang is gonna handle him like heās going for š„at the Olympics! their Rabbit Era has begun
Edit: 4/7 02:00
Episode 24 now. Steady pacing to the finish!

Definitely one of my comfort BLs.
