He’s not flamboyant because he’s gay... Clearly his brothers and other characters in the series are gay/bi…
OK, so we disagree. That's fine. I had hopes for this show after the first ep. Now they've gone from fairly serious mafia-style show to campy, amateurish, flaming stereotype, slapstick, silliness. As good as Apo was last week, this episode was a severe downturn: He is a lousy comedic actor. What is up with all the weird gesticulations and body-twisting weirdness he exhibited? 180-degree turns in mood and aesthetic from ep to ep are not a good sign of things to come. BTW, if Kinn can lift Porsche by the neck with one hand like a superhero and hold him there until he passes out, what the hell does he need a body guard for? And why are there 30 bodyguards sitting around doing nothing? This is turning into one of those shows where so many characters are gay, including the lead, that there is zero sexual suspense as to who will do what to whom. Where's the fun in that?
why can't we just let people enjoy things? i don't think that it's that deep..
Are you talking to me? I asked if people think ep 2 was funny. Even if I wanted to, I have no means of stopping anyone from enjoying "things." Did I say this was a "deep" show?
I'm curious: Do the majority of commenters here feel that episode 2 was funny?
I feel badly for the actor playing the flamingly gay/stereotypical/flamboyant brother. I've seen him in a couple other projects and he is actually a talented actor. What he's doing here is embarrassing.
I agree! It is frustrating to see this complete 180 from him , but we are following Kuea’s perspective right…
Yet ANOTHER message to me, for whom you "don't have time." lol First you don't have time for such people as me, now your "time investment is really minimal." Which is it, church-lady?
I think I saw somewhere it should happen after they leave the club. Where they go home and Lian apologizes and…
Oh look...another message from my stalker. SJWs, thought-police and censorious people rarely mention what their views boil down to. Better to promote the "proper" and "appropriate" content changes you want without mentioning what you're after.

Oh Kai...such an adorable nitwit. You keep telling me how hostile and angry and ravingly crazy I am, and yet...and yet...you keep fucking writing to me. I wish I could say I return the affection you've obviously developed toward me but I don't. I'm glad you "don't have time for such people" as me. Maybe you'll stop writing stupid comments.
P.S. I am extremely hostile to you OPINIONS and mindset. As for YOU as a person, well, I think one's opinions and mindset says a lot about the person who holds them.
This has been on my to-watch list for a long time. For some reason I just kept putting off the watch, just as I did with "Farewell My Concubine." After I finally watched that and was blown away, I put this off a while longer, having been told it was very similar to FMC and not wanting to rehash a plot I'd recently seen and didn't feel like sobbing for another two hours so soon after FMC either. Finally watched tonight. This is exquisite, and exquisitely painful/heart-breaking and beautiful.
Inger is a goddess. Huge heart, a loving, forgiving compassionate soul. She is a woman who loves gay men but she is very much NOT a fag hag. She has as much stately bearing and self-confidence as she does empathy. I adore her. The two male leads are excellent too of course. I believed everything they emoted as real and true.
I have some questions about plot elements but will reserve those for after a second watch. I always catch things I missed the first time around. There were two scenes in particular that I think could have been improved on greatly, and they are my only negative feelings about the film. Other than that...masterpiece. Somehow, even though this has an ending I would have preferred to be far different, it does not feel like the standard "all gays must be miserable" cliche, tacked-on tragedy. Its' pain is well-earned and not at all maudlin.
The way in which the final chapters of the characters' lives were revealed at the end reminded me a great deal of the ending of the English film "Atonement," featuring one of my few fave contemporary actresses Keira Knightley. Both are narrated over footage showing what is being revealed in the narration and they are equally devastating. I sobbed through both, but that good kind of cinematically-induced sob that is somehow ok with me. :D

So many stunning films out there being ignored while BL trash like "Bad Buddy" rack up 20,000 comments and god knows how many viewers. All one can do is laugh...or cry.

Once again, the comment of a loser. There is nothing in my comments to indicate I am "losing my shit." But saying so is your effort to discredit my opinions by implying I'm overly emotional/hysterical. Of course you like the show. It contains elements that make you tingle in your moist places while at the same time you get to present as a self-righteous, concerned member of the Moral Majority, oh-so-concerned for the youth and intellectually-challenged among us who aren't as evolved as you and can't discern fiction from reality.
This movie needs to be banned. Respect for the deceased person :(
You can't be serious. Banning and censorship is never the answer, especially as it would only serve to help fade the memory of how this wonderful actress was crucified by the Korean press and so-called "Netizens," who would more accurately be described as "psycho-brutal haters with no lives of their own who destroy celebs to make themselves feel worthwhile and influential." Seriously, fuck all those people. They also helped kill my beloved Jonghyun of the K-Pop group SHINee.
And basically nothing in the Korean entertainment industry, culture or laws have changed to prevent more suicides. Dozens have occurred since this one in 2005.

Kids always know a lot more than we think, and are aware of a parents' hesitation to discuss certain topics, which only makes those topics seem all the more attractive.

Typical comment of someone who is losing an argument. Wow, you seem stupid. Are YOU OK? You seem eager to control what other people get to see, hear and read. Why does freedom of expression and speech make YOU so angry?
