Yet, you have to remember that the age of consent in Korea is 20 years old, quite older for the rest of the world. 19 years old is a minor. At 19 I was already in my 3 year in Uni and I was expected to take decisions as an adult. So when he say minor how minor he was? This is an important piece of information in a serious account of facts.

Kiita Komagine looks so cool and handsome in this photoshoot of GQ Japan. He is a talented artist. he has more projects coming I hope we international audience have access to them. https://www.gqjapan.jp/article/20240701-kiita-komagine-vol1-honda-dax125?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=dhtwitter&utm_content=null

What a great debut of a Japanese BL. I really enjoyed this first episode. Eito Konishi is adorable as the province boy. I am deeply ignorant about Japanese dialects, but I understand he is speaking one of the Hichiku dialects as they mentioned Fukuoka. Diverse languages elements is one of my score points in any drama. Yoji Awase is providing a good performance as this apparently distance guy with a warm heart. So promising!

I have not encountered anybody saying he is lying. I think they are criticising him for the timing of the revelation that cannot be clarified and this is affecting the other 3 guys in the programme that did nothing inappropriate. I read also a comment about him trying to go out with CM who is 8 years older than him. I believe him and he has the right to say it whenever he wants but the real problem was not an older man approaching a younger one is that he told him to stop and this person did not. This is sexual harassment.

For all the few self-righteous people here criticising those who are giving their opinions about possible couples, chemistry, etc as being shallow or reaching conclusions too soon, may I remind you that this is a 7 days dating programme, so things have to happen pretty soon. First impressions undone in the 2nd day are very difficult to recover. We have seen it before. Dilly Dallies don't get to go out as a winner couple in this franchise. Additionally, this is a forum and we are the audience of this dating programme, our emotions, impression, opinions comes from what we are shown by the production team, so this is the space to share our ideas while the programme is broadcasting. We are not their therapists, we are not their friends, we are not privy to what could happen (or happened after the programme). Can we please be left free to have fun commenting about His Man 3!

I am not sure, I looked into this when people started to comment last week but I could not see anything. If you have a link please share it with me

I feel the same like it is going to be a bit toxic

Nothing wrong to be a dancer!!! and outside dating programmes they do like the rest of us, but in this Korean dating programme, the two dancers in Series 1 did not have luck. One of them not even receive a phone call. Arguably one of them was part of a winner couple but it was all a move to win the programme. The hairdresser did not have intention to date him. One of the dancers gave an explanation outside the programme and there were others comments about why a number of Korean gays do not like certain professions when dating but I did not want to go into details. Regarding age, well for the shock of the older contestant about the date of SJ and Hwin I just fear that they don't have much chances. We have them at 21 and 22, M at 23 and the rest are late 20 and early 30, so who is going to date them? and they don't have that chemistry between them to date each other.

Agree with you SM and Hwi looked so good together, so in tune.

Too late, this programme has already been filmed and edited.

I was rewatching episode 3 to remember their ages, JaeSang is the oldest one at 33 but there are other 3 that are late 20s and quite close in age, so regarding the incident with JungHyun, we really don't know. My total respect to him but we cannot just guess who was as we would be going backwards and forward with 3 other guys who did nothing inappropriate.

Glad you said it, they indeed set the bar high.

I know it is not like Season 2 but it is still better than Season 1, at least for me.

This comes as a surprise because all the older ones have an issue with dating younger men, so I am quite puzzled at the moment.

Some people has commented this already, I am watching this series not for the potential couples but for the individuals. The dancer so young but so interesting. He does not stand a chance in that dating programme, not only for his age but for his profession. We have seen this before. Hwi is adorable, lucky the guy who managed to have a relationship with him. he looks rather smart as well. Minseong, not sure if he stands a chance but he is very endearing. Of course the actor ex, he is intriguing, I would like to know more about him and I would rather not see him coming back with YJ, atm it feels there is some toxics level in that relationship. So I hope he is not caught up in the ex rebounded effect. Some people are saying that there is a spoiler about them but may I remind people that to be a winner CP you only have to decide to see each other once after the programme. So if a couple of these guys decide for each other with the only intention of going out once, they are declared winner. Season 1 was that ChanMing did not have any intention to date that pretty younger man so after the programme he cut him off. The same the hairdresser with the dancer, they never even went on a date. The dancer went to see the other guy to take some photos and create an awkward situation. The hairdresser was not interested at all. He has a man waiting for him outside. So far the heroes of this franchise are our lovely couple JS/SH, they are still together and enjoying it. The other couple was a similar situation as His Man 1.

I don't feel the chemistry between the exes. I watched a TikTok when they were an item and really it is one of those couples that just they, themselves, understand the attraction. The actor can have anybody really, he is gorgeous and he knows it so I guess if YJ did not make him totally happy or was not fulfilling his expectations he just left.

I think Korea (and China I believe) give a lot of importance to age differences and have honorifics depending on this. In a large number of other countries is hardly an issue these days. She/He/They we date people we like, older or younger. This is the reality. I watched a program in mainstream TV with a reputable psychologist who said that for people who are born within 10 years, age difference should not be an issue as it is considered still the same generation.

Yes

I think it is embarrassment really.

I totally agree with you regarding YeongJu, I think he was overdoing it from the beginning. It is alright to be outgoing and cheerful, is great but he is not reading the room really and that conversation with MG was not friendly but toxic. It looks we are going to have more toxic tantrums in episode 5. Let's see. MG comes across as a very aloof guy. He is extremely handsome, as in "k drama handsome", so he would have received all sort of attention. Maybe that has shaped his character. I don't think SM is that great, "pure love" what that even means? I thing he is a good decent man, but not to light fireworks. Still he has all the right to change his mind and go for the older guy. It is his loss because Hwi is lovely and meant well.
