EP.9 The series is about that God damn USB, and Jesus we are in EP.9 and this USB just won't go away. This series should change the name to "USB" the Series.
We have Foam, I'm sorry Tar (follow your setting will you Boo? You made a huge discovery last EP with Foam the name), having a tiny suitcase of all his belongings with Boo.
The dialogues, of course, can be skipped entirely. For example:
Foam: Chris, you are not in our room lately, why? (How do you know Tar, you are with Boo and in those robotic dance classes π)
Foam: I'm so angry when you said you want a baby so I left. (Wtf !?) ... I'm not angry at you ever, I love you more daily. (Hello? Remember what you just said?)
And we now know why we don't get the breakup scene, it must be so bad even in MFlow standard that they have to cut it. Chris asking Tar to have a baby? π€£π€£π€£
Then we have Park tired from carrying luggage? Why him? And four adults men cannot carry that tiny suitcase with wheels? And then we will get a big reward?
Of what? Make up scene 2.0 of Tar and Chris? This is not even supposed to be in this EP right? And this is obviously Boo's office from last EP, can you at least cover the windows? And that pink bedroom table with the laptop? You have budget for racecar and none for I-pad? NvM, so TarChris gets naughty? And
"Black" mom appeared at BewPark, why? To support her son and take him back? So which is it? And "cool" mom you gave up one sentence later?
Then Park is ... jealous? ???π And then we get NC. What! That peck on the cheek? Where is the big reward you insisted on? You would give NC randomly, and when we are hungry, we get instead Bew's sister flirting with gossip queen 1, in the one and only street foodstall in Thailand? π€·
Some fancy building later, we have more nonsense dialogues. So Chris is the one that needs to try again? Because Tar came from the future and did nothing? "Oh I'm (Tar) just here to spend good moments with you (Chris)... And that clock stopped working, but it is okay." (What meaning does this scene has then?)
Now the child scene is unacceptable in a trillion ways. What are you making the poor girl do? And yelling at her? Come on that's malpractice!
Not to say, the niece's mother just hand her kid over to strangers. The van transformed into BMW racecar? They are in a rush so Tar is performing his robotic walk? TarChris took a motorbike and lost their way, when BewPark knew exactly where to go, but arrived just in time?
The garage scene, what a mess! I will just say two things. 1. Park, you just swam across the river? 2. Tar, where did you get your spider sense?
This is supposed to be the big moment before finale, but it is so bad that it is hilarious. π π π€£
which did you find? This one wasn't too bad : https://www.mtlnovel.com/dage-big-brother/chapter-list/
As I said before, the original has a much wider age difference than this series. I'm not arguing, it is just as it is.
The novel is roughly divided into three chapters:
1. Childhood and onward, WQ 13, quit school and later restart. The sister and XY primary one onward.
2. WQ enters national exam and onward.
3. All of them 18+. The older generation left the world.
Three fats is actually one person. Her mother is in effect the caretaker of all the kids. The other friend speaks with stutter, and is hinted to have minor intellectual defect, her mother runs a diner, and provide food for the kids.
As for romance, again Chinese web novel usually has all the "NC" together, later on in the story.
Describe it like flower season, it will start with nothing, then when it blooms, we get sexy. Okay? So more like innocent relationship, into bromance, and then finally all out beast mode.

They changed a lot of things. That's to be expected, for one they can't just adapt the erotic chapters and have EPs of sex. That is the style Chinese web novel is, they would have some fan-service chapters that have all the juicy parts, not spread out evenly.
You have to consider China's ban on homosexuality literature, so rarely would web novel just say they fxxk, it would mostly be innuendo that you have to decipher. Translation of these would not be easy.
And all Priest novels are written with localized dialogue, trash talk and all that. That's the kind of things that cannot be translated. It wouldn't make sense if they show it anyway.
As for the other characters you mentioned. The ML has a broken family, so these friends that he grew up together with are his actual family. His sister too of course, but she was too small to actually help.
Now this also ended and what is there to even watch?
I want to talk about Karan as a person. Let me stress that I'm not complaining, so fan-patrol please don't get me wrong. Call it after show overthinking or what you will.
Last time I said Karan, if in real life, is a creepy stalker. Now with this series ended, I maintain that he is a creepy stalker, and add that he is a hopeless control freak.
He cannot take no for an answer. Oh he said he is fine, "perfectly" fine, then give you that puppy eyes wounded look. Telling you to say yes and say yes immediately. Can one say no? Not really. Not without sabotaging the relationship.
His mother is busy, okay we know it is an excuse. And Karan do what? He surprise attack his own home, he has to get the yes. That okay face is absolutely nothing but okay. That enduring face about the verbal auntie, Karan is not okay.
Another thing. Surprise proposal is messy as hell, if anyone has been there. I personally admit I have never gotten the timing right, so I loathe surprises of any sort. I won't surprise and please don't surprise me. Pretend to surprise and to be surprised, okay!
It is not even yes or no problem. Sometimes we are just not ready. And faced with a surprise proposal, especially a public one, we just have to say yes, if only for the emotional comfort for the other party.
Really, it maybe a romance kill, but speaking from experience, proposal is a thing to be discussed and thoroughly planned. Even then, many things will go wrong, it just do! In drama, of course Achi has also been prepared, their plans are mutual and they will live happily ever after. I tell you, fat chance.
Karan is sweet, and take care of Achi. But no no no a relationship takes two. Achi is stiff and embarrassed? Damn well he should. By handing his life over, it is not a metaphor, Achi is expected to shut down his own brain and think about nothing. Just let go, Karan does it all. Boy, talk about volcanic pressure, is Achi even allowed to breathe without assistance? We already saw that Achi is not allowed to eat by himself.
Again I'm just digressing now that I have nothing to watch. Thanks for reading.
I have waited for sub in different languages to see if I heard it wrong, but boy I heard it right.
Sroi has changed preference to avoid bad ex? That's the answer you give for the bar popping scene?
They even threw in a random flashback with the rose, "I'm open to anyone". She even said it as if she is a saint, then make a tedious list of prerequisites. Very open-minded indeed.
And then they dared to give a lecture on diversity and acceptance? Sexual preference is what, lunch on the menu that you can choose? Mix and match? Noddles for lunch and rice for dinner?
Sure, we can discover our preference very late in our life, and coming out is a personal choice. If and when you are ready.
But hey, you are straight, or with your drama logic, "open" (conveniently and ad hoc). Then your trash ex comes and bother you, so you come out as a lesbian? This is not fluidity, this is mockery. Wtf?
Again, sexual preference is not an article of cloth, you can just put it on, post a selfie on Instagram, and then take it off. Or hell in this series, go on popping bra and perhaps more.
Geez bad is tolerable, but this is worse than "Mame"!
Dropped.
(Why isn't there zero for rating, one is too much)
lolololol I'm convinced alot these ppl in the comments never been in a real relationship. they are not easy and…
If you mean relationship that is not based on honesty, yes I have had and will never look back.
People do not change overnight, they just don't. You are being kind and understanding, I applaud you for that.
It takes a very long time for adults to change. Yes meeting somebody will shape life and promote changes. Just not magically. You named Asian, it takes even more time for them. Any oriental studies on traditional beliefs and social norms will tell you that.
They have 8 EPs to do this, instead they stalled any major progress for 7 EPs and bam we have a new improved Soga in seconds.
It seems we are divided about EP.8 as much as, if not more, than other EPs.
Now we are entitled to our opinions, and I too am unswayed by anyone. However, can we please stop the personal attacks and get back to the contents of the series?
EP.8 surely reset the course of this in the right direction. However the "NC" seems out of place. No I'm not even complaining about the contents.
Soga is like stone cold for 30+ years, and what little time in between EP. 7 & 8, he just changed? And changed into a nagging housewife of all things? I don't remember seeing him struck by lightning.
Another matter is the tone of the series, we began an Osaka themed comedy, then turned into a triangle love drama, and this EP suddenly changed again into a ShΕjo BL. Make up your mind production, what exactly are you aiming for?
I will finish this. With that said, this series is 5/10 for me. Barely average.
I'm still hanging on my original theory, call it delusion if you must, that no one died. Oh except that Jason goon.
In fact we now know that twins father lied to Nont, and secretly worked with Zouey. The autopsy is highly suspicious, so we go back to Nont. Plus Zouey, yes I will not let go. π¦
Is there even a twin?
Phop strangled Nont, can it not? Faked death once, same method.
Nuth works for who? It might not be Lee, or not only Lee. Twins father, the final boss, Nont the puppet. How about that? Lee is still out remember.
And the Zouey confession. That's typical criminal guilty conscience. Who is actually working for Lee? Nuth Aob Phop Prom Porsche? No it might be Zouey. He just walks in playboyy VIP1 like his backyard. The painting is Lee? No way, it looks more like First with a muscle suit. Or younger Keen.
Don't you dare!
Anyway, I say they will have the watch "eat" the bullet, and Tar will just get up next episode.
What? You say the bullet hit from the back?
I say, MFlow logic.
If they are going to dodge bullets by tilting their head, I will die instead.
Where is the ultimate sauce pan?
I gave 3, I said many times this show is so bad that it is entertaining. Hence the rating.

Again I'm just digressing now that I have nothing to watch. Thanks for reading.
(So YouTube has tightened their regional control perhaps?)
And many third-party sites have it already (I don't want to support unofficial sub stealing site by listing them).
Your best bet is to get a VPN and change to an English speaking Asia country. Then search again.

The sound effects are not helping.
Wordplay might be funny if delivered by a kid, with cleaner contents. But told by uncles pretending to be youngsters, it is wrong and disturbing, imo.
People do not change overnight, they just don't. You are being kind and understanding, I applaud you for that.

Kuro said he will join the show. Maybe a promotion for a Japan run of the show.

Haru town? Omg. Now without Ossan, nothing is must watch anymore.
I'm sad, why not 102 episodes?
We are practically swarmed by bad BLs, and it is just March.
I like the slice of life tone of this series, the characters are real and can be related to. None of those clichΓ© plots of tragedy, cunning ex, public grand confession, etc.
Just happy to be together, sharing living moments. Well younger audiences may not relate to this yet, and need more excitement.
The MLs could take over the old man shop and give us more fan-service, or a punch on the manager. Again, ended too soon.
In fact we now know that twins father lied to Nont, and secretly worked with Zouey. The autopsy is highly suspicious, so we go back to Nont. Plus Zouey, yes I will not let go. π¦
Is there even a twin?

His old man is right to be worried.π
So he being with the rest of them is a plot hole from the beginning. Not that I'm arguing, med students have no time to sleep and eat properly.
Look at First, he has time to DIY when Soong is trying hard to sell T-shirts.π
