I heard him say in one of the lives that he's 174cm. I was shocked. That's not short at all.
That was the height I was guessing. Chen Yi looks to me very average height, average build, but good body, of course. Turns out the guy is huge and incredible strong. He throws Ai Di around like it's nothing. I have seen an image on Twitter (X) of their love scene, where his biceps is as big as Ai Di's waist, lol.
i have never ever wished for any second couple to get their own series as much as im wishing for ai di and chen…
But did that ever happen? This is not Thai BL or GMMTV. I can't recall any Taiwan BL couple that got a 2nd series. They all somehow disappear until they get a cameo, lol.
I was thinking exactly the same thing.I was beyond surprised that no one was talking about this.Personally,I don't…
They did. Very early on. But those discussions end sooner or later. People who had a problem with it, stopped watching, the others kept watching and talked about other aspects of the series, until someone brings it up again. I feel this series got more popular recently, especially because of the 2nd couple, so new watchers come in, and the discussion starts again.
Honestly, I couldn't care less about the age gap. This story is horrible in so many aspects, it's hard to take it seriously. The actors deserve better. They are pretty chill and nice guys. This is such a mess.
Love the 2nd couple, though. The love scene between them in ep 9 is most likely the best and most beautiful I have ever seen.
Looks cheap and cheesy. But Joss and Gawin? The idea of them kissing makes me laugh. Not in a bad way, though, hear me out. But since, even in 2023, kissing and stuff is still a big issue and there is awkwardness between actors, those two are the "I don't give a f*ck and just do it"- type. It's hilarious.
I hate those damn children of prophecy so much. I enjoy almost all the characters in this series, good or bad, but those children ... sigh. Tanya is a manipulative witch who preaches about everyone-is-equal while using her power over others to make them her pawns, Eunseom's Inaishingi persona has gotten to his head, I'm still not over his arrogant smirking while facing Tagon, not to mention that the righteous rebel army ambushed the Arthdal soldiers to let them die a gruesome death in the fire (cowards!), and Saya is just a lost case, he always was, from the very beginning I waited for this character to do something great, but nope. I guess I'm so pissed, because I feel I must root for them. I just can't. At least the writers are aware of the dilemma. Tanya admitted she wants a world that's "less evil". They know that all this bloodshed can't lead to a happy world. Never ever before did I have such a hard time to believe in the good guys. Eunseom isn't a good war leader, and Tanya's plan wasn't that bad, but it failed again. I'm sure divine help will come, how else are they gonna win this? And Saya, he is the mirror, okay ... what does that even mean?
Just my two cents ... I hope everyone is sane enough to know that Tagon can't and shouldn't win this fight. Period. That said, he and Taelalha are incredible characters. Both are the product of their harsh upbringing and what their fathers did to them. When Tagon took Saya in, he was young himself and still under the influence of his father, he didn't raise Saya right. Now, since he is older, with his own son, he does a much better job. Taealha telling the child to kill that man after the attack seemed gruesome, but now we have seen that the boy is brave and doesn't hesitate. Because of that, he was able to save his own father. Those two have an incredible willpower, are strong, physically and emotionally. Nothing ever came easy to them. They are tyrants, yes, but they aren't cruel for no reason. They are smart, they fight, they manipulate, they never complain, they never give up. The love they both have for their child is showing their good side. They both want to live no matter what, none of them will go down easily, but both were willing to die immediately to save their child. Now look at the children of prophecy ... Eunseom and Tanya living in paradise for the longest time. Tanya wasn't even able to learn that damn dance. No hardships, no challenges, just an easy life surrounded by nature and loving people. They then learned it the hard way how ugly the world really is. Did they ever show us that they are exceptionally smart or strong? I think Tanya is the one character of all three that improved the most. She indeed played Tagon once in a while and made the best use of what was given to her, the role of high priest, which she was chosen, it was not her achievement. Eunseom was your typical naive nice guy who can motivate people because of his good heart. I feel this changed in s2, because now he is just the leader of a rebel army. I don't see how he is special. The whole Ishinagi thing was more or less luck or fate. Because of this legend, he was accepted and able to unite the tribes. He just tries to follow the path that was given to him. He gets dragged along somehow. The horse for example ... again divine help is giving to him. And Saya ... he is still the most underdeveloped character. He is not very smart, not very strong (neither physically nor emotionally), not a good person, nothing. Such an unappealing character that is in love with Tanya, which makes everything more complicated. That he was willing to die for her was a bit out of character. I expected him to come up with a plan to run away with her. I hope those three save the world how they are supposed to do. But if this is a showdown of good and evil, I must say the devil put up a hell of a fight.
what is charismatic about Tagon? 😂you sure you’ve been watching the same movie ? 😂well, it’s okay everyone…
I only watch this for Tagon and Taelalha. The actors are incredible.
Btw: Everything those two achieved in life was because of hard work. Everything the children of prophecy got was because of divine help. What's the message here?
If Tagon dies, I will cry a river. If Eunseom dies, I won't even shed a tear. I blame Tagon's actor for being too charismatic, and the writers for not being able to make Eunseom/Saya and Tanya likable characters.
I dropped this a while ago, not my cup of tea. Still, I occasionally tune in and watch some scenes. So I'm here today just to say one thing: First is pretty. Damn.
I guess the issue is that it felt uncomfortable and awkward and maybe those are the feelings that have been piled…
I didn't think the love scene was that bad, but maybe my expectations were low? That they only have buddy chemistry and that there is the spark missing was visible very early on.
But the question is, why the director accepted this result? Didn't he do his job? Shouldn't he have said to Chimon…
Maybe the director wanted exactly this result? I'm still salty about Dark Blue Kiss where the camera went to the ceiling, or TayNew were kissing underwater or other "tricks" to not make them kiss, just to find out later, that they indeed kissed, and the director just edited it out.
Chimon reminds me of Krist or - even worse - Plan. Krist at least put some effort into it in Be My Favorite. I…
Honestly, it's just strange. Talking about Krist and Be My Favorite: Gawin is soooo chill about the kissing. And then you have actors like Khaotung and First who were a bit shy at the beginning, but are now delivering like there is no tomorrow. Or TayNew who I think don't feel very comfortable when kissing, but they still went for it. If there was no good kiss in Dark Blue Kiss, it was the director's fault who edited them out. I mean, there are actors who don't like doing those scenes for different reasons (being friends with their partners, being shy overall, maybe homophobia plays a part too), but they just go for it. So I don't understand why some behave so childish. A kiss won't kill you. It's your job. You get paid for it.

It's nice, really. I almost forgot how it feels when you're so in love with a couple.
But those discussions end sooner or later. People who had a problem with it, stopped watching, the others kept watching and talked about other aspects of the series, until someone brings it up again.

Now look at the children of prophecy ...
Eunseom and Tanya living in paradise for the longest time. Tanya wasn't even able to learn that damn dance. No hardships, no challenges, just an easy life surrounded by nature and loving people. They then learned it the hard way how ugly the world really is.
Did they ever show us that they are exceptionally smart or strong? I think Tanya is the one character of all three that improved the most.

I still wonder who will succeed their business, when everyone and their dog is gay.
