It was such a tender, heartwarming & lovely couple. Not too much angst & a healthy dose of communication - even telepathic one ! Definitely their best work so far as a pairing.
I giggle in the last episode when Yi said Apo have become a "Thorn" on his side since he survived. The irony when you know his former name was "PhopTHORN". Don't know if it's the same in Thai language (we have the same expression in French for example) but anyway, it made my day. :P
I cried, when Ya was desperate beside Thorn bed. He was a beautiful scene & Big nailed it. And I cried again, on their last wedding scene... My eye hurt. Y_Y
The side couple also have some really good highlight. The scene where the star are projected on their bodies was really aesthetic. Yeah, I was completely absorbed by that and not by what they were doing... *cough*
I was surprised to see Sassy Apo make a comeback. I was persuaded he was forgotten but it was a nice surprise. I don't know if it's canon but I do like to imagine Apo was in Thorn's world all along with this world version of Ya. Suddenly becoming poor and disrespected probably humbled him and make him more human. Who or me ? Sassy Apo spin off anyone ? I need it now that I think of it. :D
And finally the last scene... *cough* I appreciated the last hooray. *blush*
Anyway, I loved this drama from start to finish. 9,5/10
I haven’t been scrolling the comments a lot so I’m sorry for asking. but what about the “cousins” comments?
No, the issue in ep. 4 is that his father never "acknowledged" him aka. put his name under Iljo's birth certificate (so he have the last name of his mother and not his father) but he is biologically related to him.
Logically I don't get how that changes their relationship one way or the other but I guess they want me to take…
Again, I think it's deeply rooted with the problem that could bring to their potential child. And even if it isn't possible between two men, the stigma - the social taboo if you prefer - is still here. So yes, I would be relieve.
I haven’t been scrolling the comments a lot so I’m sorry for asking. but what about the “cousins” comments?
So far, we only know that he is an illegitimate son but he is still the son of his recently decease father. If anyone was maybe adopted, it's Seo Jeonghan. But again, as far as we know both aren't aware of this fact (Iljo doesn't know for sure) and are willingly in a relationship with their own cousin.
Logically I don't get how that changes their relationship one way or the other but I guess they want me to take…
The major taboo about incestuous relationship is the danger it bring to their children. Well, to me at least. Here, it isn't really an issue for obvious reason. But it's true that the feeling a have for it somewhat do apply even to homosexual relationship. Like I would be honest, if my child suddenly say he want to be in a relationship with the child of my sister... I wouldn't be fine with it at all, even if they are both men.
As for this drama, it's fiction and even without the spoiler I was pretty sure it would have a plot twist of some sort to fix the situation so isn't an issue to me. Even if it's still a bit off. :P

Well, it's probable about the fact that both of them are cousin and have a romantic relationship. Let's call it, it's incest - even if it's less of an issue with a homosexual relationship because they can't have children, it's still taboo for many. But I'm 95% sure they will fix that with a plot twist later with one of them being a adopted child all along.
Well, like in straight romance, they are professional + the fact that during those "make out" scene they…
Well, it would be kinda hypocrite, no ? The actor who will be "offended" choose to be in a BL drama. And being a man himself, he is completely aware that it can happen regardless of his own will. But then again, they are professional. I wouldn't dare to say that the situation you describe never happened but it require a lot of "What if".
You know i was just thinking if any of the BL actors were gay in real life it'd be tough controlling your reactions…
Well, like in straight romance, they are professional + the fact that during those "make out" scene they are surrounded by multiple peoples and lighting. Not the ideal place to be "excited" (even if it can and did happen).
Hmm... Story 6 "Not a BL" just felt odd. I mean the mental breakdown of the rookie actor to his senior just felt weird. He have the right to feel uncomfortable doing that but shaming his senior like he's doing something completely wrong ? It's called acting for a reason. And let's not talk about the "punishment" on the second part... It's basically sexual harassment here. ^^'
I guess, the rookie actor was right after all, this establishment is wrong. :P
My favorite is still Story 2 "Folding? You!". That being said, previously, another channel also made an anthology ("Close to You") & extended one of those story into a full fledged drama ("The Nameless Season"). I'm wonder if they will do the same here. And if yes, what would be your pick so far ?
Like I said, my favorite is Story 2, but I don't see the potential beyond what we already saw. Story 1 "Raise Me?" or Story 4 "Sleep Around, Still Mine" could be interesting!
Only seen two episodes so far. I was expecting a Supernatural Drama but, it kind of failed at doing that ? I hope…
I mean... for me, my very first guess on episode one is that the "Old man" he see in the mirror is just himself. You got here a old man with dementia that see himself in his younger self. The dad is probably his son (or another relative) that play alongside his delirium to keep him stable. And Win is probably another side of his delirium as so far, only him seems to see him or acknowledge him. Like when he go down the stair, the receptionist only called his name or when Win went to grab his meal and talked, nobody responded (we don't even see with who he talked).
I mean if the whole drama is about his twisted mind, they should have been more subtle about it. Again I hope I'm wrong.
Well, the play made me cry. I was literally like Asami in this scene. xD
Overall, a very good second season. And I was never a fan of those to begin with as they always feel a bit lackluster tbh. Anyway, 9/10. If you liked the first season, you can safely watch this one without worry.
He doesn't wanna take job in which he'll basically have to use AI to create art but he'll take a shady job from…
Said it like that, it's sure sound bad... But from what I understood, he value greatly his art so the AI thing probably touched his soft spot. I mean he literally accepted a "escort" gig right after. He doesn't seems THAT picky if it bring food on the table. Raw meat seems to be also his limit. :P
Anyway, yes, it's shady but it seems to pay very well. Also, he did hesitated & asked feed back from his friend. So he isn't completely unaware that this isn't "right". And the final straw ? The dong. :D
More seriously, he is probably already fascinated by Koh (cf. his art piece he made the same night).
Someone mentioned this before, but Seonu's "love" for DaRim seems to have been triggered by seeing someone…
I think it's the wrong take about Seonu. Why didn't he confess before ? She obviously never felt that way toward him & he know it. She was probably his first love. Anyway, he then move on & encounter Jun's mother. It's more realistic than 90% of K-Drama's MLs that get stuck for YEARS without seeing anyone because of their childhood crush if you ask me.
Unfortunately, it didn't end well. After that, he had a very young baby so romance probably wasn't his first priority. As for now, more than the presence of a rival around her what probably make him more eager to try this time is that she asked him to be her "fake husband". He was stuck in his loyal friend role for so long but now, everything changed. I think he know she still have zero interest in him, but this whole act feed him with hope. Enough to make him try this time at least.
But ngl, you suck at your job. You will do anything except... working on the actual case. :P
It was such a tender, heartwarming & lovely couple. Not too much angst & a healthy dose of communication - even telepathic one ! Definitely their best work so far as a pairing.
