Tbh, the first episode was quite boring. They took to much time for presenting the main lead "break up". But episode 2 was way better as the plot finally began. :)
It really catch how awkward teenage love can be. Like, he want to appear "cool" to his crush but he is so clumsy (& cute) at doing that.
But the fact it's a story about a really messy love square make me doubt that I would enjoy this to the end as I tend to not really like those. The first one that come to my mind recently is "Only Friend" for example.
I will still give it a shoot just because it's quite far from the usual story telling in Thai BL. It's less "scripted" and have a more natural approach that make me keep wanting to watch it despite the plot. I don't know if it make sense. ^^'
The last two episode where a bit messy: So much was going on that some were just throw and left out of nowhere:
- Trash guy taking picture of ML & FL "cheating" on SML didn't get karma back. I didn't even have any meaning because SML already know. I was 100% sure that he would have spread it across the village but he didn't ? I don't know, I'm just confuse at why they made this scene.
- Vet Girl & ML's Childhood friend were paired out of nowhere.Maybe I'm not remembering correctly but did they even have a scene before that could lead to this ?
- And the childhood friend couple: They finally confessed and it lasted like 1 minute before orphan boy get slapped for no reason. I hope it will not end like that. x)
- Esther "miscarriage" (?): they really made it like nothing happened or what ? Did they scrap some scenes because it didn't fit ? It was super odd.
- Oh god, the romance of ML's mother... It's either another scam or her HA. Either way... I would have preferred the scrap scene (?) of Esther / SML story line. :x
- And finally the stuffed doll... It couldn't have caused a car crash. Obviously she will learn that in the final episode because I cannot see how writers made her the murderer of her Mom & ML's Dad but how can a grown woman could misunderstand this to begin with ?
Anyway, even if it's literally chaos, I'm still invested in this for some reason. ^^'
Woah...really mixed bag of opinions here...i feel like i am the only one thoroughly enjoying the show...yeah YS…
I'm also enjoying this but damn, their relationship is just push & pull & push & pull & ... again & again. It's sweet for like 1 episode and BAM, FL have another drama going on -> Let's break up. They did that 3 ? 4 times now ? So I kind of understand why this one on episode 10 was a bit the last drop for some. Especially with the preview where ML AGAIN is the one mending the relationship.
But again, I enjoy this but not for the romance. Her story is interesting, side stories are interesting but I don't really enjoy the punching ball ML. Even with her mom. I was hopeful when he cut contact with her mom but then, he was giving mix signal again. :/
I was so happy that this did not let me down even a bitNo cliche breakup or long separation or any such trope…
Yeah, I have serious PTSD with K-Drama that I was on edge with the beach scene. I was like "She wouldn't, right ? It wouldn't make sense that she leave him for this reason, right ? But it's the second to last episode... It always happen for dumb reason..." that I'm so glad it didn't happen. x)
Something puzzle me: Where did the necklace come from ? It seems to come from the future (with the AI voice that talked about the lack of energy) but... Why the point if he can't change anything ? The setting make me believe it's some sort of punishment from a past life more than anything. ^^'
Like I'm really on Shen Nan side here: "Why ? Why ? Why ???". I hope the last episode will answer that but with the preview... It didn't seems like it. Hope I'm wrong.
Also another thing completely irrelevant: The actor that play Shen Han is younger than the one that play Shi Wen. I was expecting an age gap between them to at least 5y with Kou Wei Long being older. Is it just me ? :O
It sure isn't your usual romance K-Drama. Sex is kind of taboo in those (even if it's less true in recent years). I'm really intrigued if they will continue to focus on the sexuality side or it will become like any others with there conspiracy & epic dramatic romance.
Everyone can have their opinion on the matter but:-I don't really like how you shaming Kaori for her lost of sex…
-You said nothing is said that she lost her sex drive but nothing is also said she have side piece. In the beginning Hagiwara said they had sex but then they had less & less over time (symbolized by their bed being further apart as time pass). She doesn't want sex, you want her to force herself ? I hope not. Discuss the matter ? Sure but either of them don't try to have a serious talk.
-Both of them have clearly said that they are afraid of talking about this issue with their partner. So yes, they are also part of the problem. I don't know about your personal experience, but when I want to say something to my partner I just sit down and say it. It's clear & simple. And if they REALLY try to avoid any form of communication, I just break up.
-Breaking up doesn't need a proper talk if your partner avoid it. You just say it and leave. It's really simple to do (but really hard if you still have feeling like they do). And by "correct" way, it was just because you said that it wasn't cheating. Saying that the "relationship was already over when they avoided the conflict" is just an easy excuse. But if it was really over, breaking up would have been easy. But if wasn't easy for them, it wasn't over. So it's cheating. Again, they admitted themselves what they were doing.
I can’t be the only one who thinks that frigid bitch kind of deserved it. Like you could have expected it to…
Everyone can have their opinion on the matter but:
-I don't really like how you shaming Kaori for her lost of sex drive (Frigid bitch is a bit too extreme ^^'). It can happen and obviously here it badly hurt her partner. The most annoying thing here is their lack of communication. Both couple suffer heavily from that more than the lack of sex in my opinion.
-Taking a call for your partner - who was probably busy - isn't bad especially if they live together. It isn't controlling. It's not like he searched on purpose his phone for their email like Kaori did.
-For the cheating part. They feel guilt. They hide what they did. They even admitted themselves. The fact that they were not ready to break up with their partners before doing what they did, it's called cheating even if their relationships were just on name only. And just to be clear, I'm not saying they should burn in hell. It's just not the "correct" way to handle thing.
I'm pretty sure it come from a webtoon I already read but I don't remember the name. For the ending, I will tell…
It was a happy ending.
[EDIT]: But the true happy ending appear in the side story. So I don't know if this adaptation will use them. If not, you could read the webtoon to have their true ending. :)
Y'all can u tell me what is the relationship of Qiong Nu with Madam Li and the sisters? cause she calls Madam…
I'm very bad with name but I think you mean the girl who was betrothed to her dead & only son ? I'm not sure if they were betrothed but the son was in love with her but died saving her when she fell in the river. He was also the twin brother of the 3nd daughter. So they kinda adopted her in memory for their son & brother.
I just love how chaotic this drama is. Imagine being their neighbor and see a live drama every month with Marriage, Divorce, Schemes, Burglary and even Murder! :P
Gosh my heart broke for Kang Hee. Just as she was getting a lil bit of happiness with Yeon Suu, she gets slapped…
I agree. And the thing I find the most upsetting is why all of the hate are on Kang Hee and her mother ? Because she was a foreigner ? Like they need to be two to dance a tango, right ? The argument "she seduced my husband" feel so wrong to me. And it really doesn't help with the miscarriage story. She just want to be the victim & guilt tripping EVERYONE. God, I'm really glad that ML & FL's father told her their truth this time around.
Can anyone explain why the rating is like this in their opinion?I'm debating on whether I should watch it, hah
-It's not really a fairy tale love story. -The FL is very indecisive about the ML. A lot of Push & Pull. The ML is really the stereotype of the purest Green Flag and that make the FL look even more bad for hurting him because of her behavior. BUT she is more realistic and some people doesn't understand that. ML is just too "good to be true". -I also heard some peoples complain about they had sex or they are buying condom. It's really not on the level of western show but it's kind of odd in a K-Drama ? Idk, I just can't relate to this complain. ^^'
Personally, I would recommend to try this. It's good & very different from others K-Dramas.
But the fact it's a story about a really messy love square make me doubt that I would enjoy this to the end as I tend to not really like those. The first one that come to my mind recently is "Only Friend" for example.
