Were there more kisses in the bts? I didn't see any more that I remember. Even with "G" rating, they allowed…
I could have sworn I saw a bts video(pap not official) of them kissing/hugging on the steps in HK at night. Maybe I confused it with the first kiss/confession. but I could have sworn he wasn't wearing a hat & she was on her tippy toes. I dont think I would have confused his other project 'Chasing Jade's bts videos for this one as that one is a period drama. it was filmed right after this one if I remember correctly & lots of videos were circulating from both productions.
Also as a reminder...2000s were the height of emo era antics. So if you think about it in that context his silent pining for Ying Tao makes so much more sense.
It was a lovely watch ! you get attached to the characters, Yingtao had enough love and courage for the both of…
Also, I love that although she had impulsive tendances she was also a planner. She WORKED so hard for every goal. And once she found what she wanted to do she sticks to it. She doesn't fold and lose focus on her own future just because the person she loves isn't around. She uses it as fuel...as the finish line that she is racing toward. She also is willing to go to war for any of her friends at anytime...much respect. She's the one leading the charge when they think Du Sheng is in danger. Ready and willing to bust a door down.
No. but she indirectly confessed to yuqiao during the fireworks scene at the beach
It's left ambiguously open. He doesn't dismiss her indirect confession. It was more for her to put it out there and finally move on and let the chips fall where they may.
I rewatch on netflix and journal it in. Cause even though Netflix translations can be lacking. episode 21-23 were ROUGH for me the first time because the translations were bad bad...like auto generated subs bad.
No hate or anything, I'm at episode 19. I feel the love she has for him, but I don't feel his love for her. She'll…
(So some of my explanation is going to be things you obviously know, but I've added it for context on my thoughts and why I feel like he's loved her since they were 9.)
He was in love with her since episode 1. From the moment she gives his name meaning there is a shift in how he orbits her. Because that's what she is for him...gravity. She is like the sun, and he is like a planet in the suns orbit. Constantly seeking it's warmth and light. Only feeling grounded when in her orbit.
He has a quiet love for her because of his upbringing. He hides his love for her, because every time he shows his OWN interest in anything it is destroyed by his mother who never properly grieved the loss of her first child. The other students narc on him to his mother so he pulls an Elsa around strangers. Conceal don't feel, don't let them know...type shit. He's learned to hide himself.
Every time he ignores Ying Tao and their friends it's because his mother threatened her parents/Ying Tao. The mother is in a higher position in the company they all work for and could transfer them at any time. It's not until he's older that he threatens to report her to authorities for abuse of power that he is able to break free from her. But that freedom brings him back to the goals he had before ever meeting Ying Tao. He wants to be a whole person before being the support he knows Ying Tao deserves. So he goes off to HK to be with his cousin for school related goals. This doesn't go as planned.
Episode 21 will show even more of his decisions from his POV. He feels like damaged goods. He doesn't feel worthy of the love that Ying Tao has for him because he feels like his life is a burden, and that he will tant her. He's constantly drowning and refuses to pull her under with him even though she willingly extends her hand to him. Though he misses the warmth of the sun, he purposely hides in darkness to not dim her shine. But he doesn't realize that she shines brightest with his presence in her life. He wants to be stable enough to keep himself afloat and not constantly using her as a life raft. I put way too many metaphors in this comment...I apologize.
1)is there love triangle? if there how much deep it is ?2)when do leads will be together3)is there any breakup?…
I answered short on the first line and then added spoiler filled context. So if you don't want to be overly spoiled just read the first sentence after the numbers.
1) Sort of, but not really. The leads only have romantic feelings for each other, but there are others who like them. One is supportive(the one who likes Ying Tao), while the one who likes Jiang Qiao Xi is a snitch and a blockade for the pair.
2) They aren't together romantically until episode 21. They don't break-up after officially getting together. But is it is extremely clear by episode 9 that they are "it" for each other. (Honestly I think it was pretty clear in episode 1 that he was head over heels after she gave his name meaning) They have a bit of an ambiguous relationship from 9-14. Obvious that they like each other but still in high school and unwilling to make his mother's and others' assumptions about them correct.
3) No "official" break ups but many separations for long periods. 7years, months and the final separation lasts 2 years. His mother separates them for about 7 years. Ying Tao(FL) ends up in the same high school as Jiang Qiao Xi(ML) and there other friends. There is a reconciliation in ep 6, but by the end of the episode his mother once again works to separate them from each other. But they are able to secretly stay in contact. Ep 9-12 they get to be around each other before his mother AGAIN pulls him away. In episode 15(after graduating high school) they confess to each other but he lies to her and ghosts for 2 years(This is explained in episode 21). She finds him at the end of ep 19 and wants answers and to make sure he's okay. As an aside, HER parents love him and have always treated him like their own son. And are extremely supportive of not only there relationship when they are older, but they support their friendship throughout the whole show.
4) Yes, happy ending. They are happily together working in the their own fields(including the extended friend group all doing well in their careers). It ends with their marriage. Best part...he is extremely low contact with his parents. She talks to his father more that he does. And although there is some contact with the mother its limited to phone calls that barely last more than a minute.
We got a bed scene before we got a reunion kiss...that was a...choice (editors/director looking directly at you) I feel like I remember a few more kisses in the bts videos that were leaked. I guess they either got cut for time or censorship reasons. I should have realized when the 'G' rating popped up on Netflix that a lot would have been left out.
TFF was rewritten by the male director to give it more trauma and extend a separation that NEVER happened in the…
(My brain went fully tangent rant. I apologize. read this like you are listening to someone with adhd explain the hyper fixation hole they fell into late at night.) I started skipping once they killed the dog. I was like. SA trauma...okay knew that going in...I can work with that. But the damn DOG...I beg your finest pardon?....nope...NO...not today Satan. ✌🏻😙💨
Then they were like, lets sprinkle in some MORE SA just incase you missed us alluding to her past SA from high school, want to make sure it's extra fresh. Oh, lets add in an orphaned sad little rich boy, who just got dumped by his girlfriend, with a dementia grandpa who has a misunderstanding with his wife(grand ma) of multiple decades and they aren't speaking...oh and for the cherry on top, lets kill the dog off just for shits and giggles. 😒
Also, absolute BS that THIS little shit was the one to actually find her in HK after she ghosted and then ran from the high school friend when he saw her by chance. Because of said dementia grandpa's connection to the university she was attending.
They took a story about hope and growing from past trauma into just a sad fest of weird jokes. HE(director/writers' version of Sang Yan) INVITED ANOTHER MAN INTO THEIR APARTMENT KNOWING SHE HAS TRAUMA AND LET HIM BE NAKED IN HER PERSONAL SPACE WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE...Sang Yan would NEVER. Sang Yan was the one to make the no one but the two of us allowed in the apartment without express permission from the other first. He made all those rules to make her feel safe and the broke ever single one. Sir....no.
Wataru surely became a beast when he beat the manager. And he done it after sliding elegantly through the window.…
I was like, ain't no way Takeru is going an entire show without doing at least ONE stunt. & bam...he's still got it. really wanted to see him holding twins, but oh well. They gave us crumbs with Sumeyoshi's daughter so I will take that happily.
You know, people seem totally fine when the male lead is the one chasing the female lead like in TFF but not when…
I think you might mean internalized misogyny. Putting a man's feelings/actions above a woman's feeling/actions. Feminist attitude is more anything a woman feels/emotes/presents a man can also feel/emote/present and visa versa.
this 'pvspvcsm' comment... this same comment was here yesterday and the day before..for the last 3/4 days, There…
See the alphabet soup...block the alphabet soup...wax on, wax off. I sometimes sing 'Click Click Boom' (stray kids) as I click the profile the click the arrow next to follow and the boom block.
TFF was rewritten by the male director to give it more trauma and extend a separation that NEVER happened in the…
In the book they were no contact for the length of a plane ride....a PLANE RIDE. I will never forgive them for changing that and making the character backslide so much. Also never forgiving them for adding an entire second couple/story that was unnecessary. Don't get me wrong I like those actors and their performance but it wasn't necessary for Sang Yan and Wen Yi Fan's story. The production should have taken notes from the 'Hidden Love' production and kept the story to the leads. Also they made an alcoholic perve bum with a criminal record into a powerful business/house owner who can then get a job as a security guard of her building....i beg your finest pardon...
I need someone else to listen to Josh Gorban's "You're Still You"....cause I feel like the author also listened to this song at some point and was like yup. that's it...that's Ying Tao's inner voice.
Same. It invokes so much more meaning than Our Generation. Cherry Amber invokes warmth, color, sweetness, passion etc. Think of all the romantic scenes across film and media that are shot with an amber glow. Cherries are youthful, bright and sweet but can sometimes be bitter. Cherry and Amber are both soft yet hard substances. 'Our Generation' is too broad in meaning and could literally go with ANY of the hundreds of school age to young adult shows that have been aired. Side eyeing the hell out of the studio people for this one. Specifically the person responsible for giving shows their English title. Ma'am or Sir....it already had a perfectly good English title.
As an aside...if they put the word Blossom in one more show I might actually lose my mind. 'Nine Layers of Purple', 'Nine Layered Purple', or even 'Wisteria' could have been fine, but no...'Blossom'. Do you know how many times I've had to verbally specify "In the show...Blossom" because "In Blossom" is ALSO a damn show.
