It's not a Thai thing at all in BL, not in the last years at least. Most Thai BL in the past few years have skinship…
I haven't seen any Chinese BL shows, but I'll definitely check them out. It sounds almost like Jane Austen, where they had to show their feelings through subtle ways. :)
At first I was a little annoyed at the lack of skinship, because I thought it was because they were both male. But I watched a movie with a heterosexual couple that also didn't kiss, so I think maybe it's a Thai thing?
Either way, I would watch a thousand more seasons of these adorable young men being in love!
Why was Healer speaking to the camera answering questions as if he's being interviewed? They started the last…
Ahhhh, okay thank you. I was so confused by the interview!! I guess for the rest of it (how he was able to keep his old job when his identity was 'killed'), I'll just have to use my imagination. :)
Yes me too. If i were him, i won't ever hold her hand to save her at the end
I thought it was because she could suddenly see the jellies again, and she had to get to her weapons before the school was destroyed. I thought the moment when she took his hand was her coming back for him, and him realizing that she hadn't left.
That might be wishful thinking, though, because I was pretty disappointed, too. When she was crying on the floor, I was like, "GO BACK, WHAT ARE YOU DOING??" But then when she ran to him, I thought it was because she was going back to save him if he hadn't made it up the stairs yet.
I *think* he was yelling her name because he thought she ran out of the school and abandoned him completely.
I'm confused by the ending and will post my questions in a spoiler-redacted reply, but can someone please explain…
Why was Healer speaking to the camera answering questions as if he's being interviewed? They started the last episode that way, and I thought he was revealed to the world or something and had to explain himself, but then they just completely dropped it, and we never understood why he was doing that.
Also - they said the man who was "shot and killed" at the airport was Bong Soo, so that takes care of his alter-ego, but then... what? He and Yeong Shin were working together in the last scene, so did he get to start over at Some Day News under his real name? And I guess all the other people working there just ignored the fact that he has a different name?
And what happened to the ajumma?? Did she keep working with the younger girl? Did Healer train the younger girl? Or did the ajumma start helping the police with the cop who had a crush on her?
The ending was so rushed, I almost wish we had another episode to wrap everything up.
So....Kim Dan became an human at the end? Or only Yeon Seo is able to see him?
Yes! As soon as he became human, I thought, "can't wait to see Miss Jung's face..." then it ended. I guess we can imagine that he wins her over again, or even better, that they tell her the truth, but I wish we could have seen it. With Kang Woo, too. It would have been nice to see his reaction to a happy ending, especially because he suspected it might happen.
Loved the friendships in this show, and the message about social equality. However, I would have liked the lead character a lot more if he respected the wishes of other people. I found his (romantic) behaviour disrespectful, even if he is a bit of a doofus, and may not have realized it.
Really liked all 3 lead actors, though! This drama is worth a watch if you want some warm feelings about friendship and solidarity. If you're looking for a good, healthy romance, I suggest looking elsewhere.
