Yeah! Such a cassanova!

The movie is really good although it has a sad ending.

Let us not feed the troll. He might be one of those people who had seen the teaser for GB2 and cannot believe how big the fandom had become and can’t help to swallow bitterness.

Official teaser has just been dropped in YT.

Did he took dentistry in PH?

I too believe that was the case. There was a flashback wherein Shi De record Yi’s crying etc,. When Yi jumped into the water and took time before surfacing, Shi De, jumped too to give oxygen to Yi.

But PND was written by a woman. A writer who had been writing queer stories and a self, identified queer woman. So the premise you stated is invalidated. :)

Not exactly. Pearl did made a choice. She chose to wait for Karleen until her healing is complete. :)

Taiwan did it again :)

true!

Ugh! Good thing I watch just for the male visuals. The UWMA arc is cringey af. Can we get past Wayu's crying-lady arc? I hope they brainstorm for a solid ending... but did they plan for this? >.<

I am crossing my fingers for TIFC not to end this series with Pearl choosing herself. >.<
If that will be the ending, the jealousy, the hurt, the anger, and the pain shown in all episodes will be for nothing and I will seriously feel that I was pulled in and invested in something that is a prank.

BUT, if they will not do that, the ending will bring mixed feelings to viewers. Also, I feel that many are frustrated with PND's characters because at some point in the show, consciously and unconsciously, we connect to the character's strengths and flaws. And at some point in our life we had experienced or know someone who had experienced what they are presenting. There is an Alex, a Karleen and a Pearl in all of us.

As for Pearl's cry at the end, honestly at first watch, I did not get it. I mean why is she crying? But re-watching the series, I've realized there is a lot for Pearl to cry on. And I think it all kind of dawned on Pearl when Karleen left her to go to Jill.

You've answered, yes. I just want to clarify because, ughm, that reason was kind of bonkers. I mean, following that logic, a BL cannot be BL if it is not made for profit?

So for a show to be GL, it must be made for profit?

This! <3

I see, that's what constitute a drama for you. It is kind of different definition from how it was defined in filmmaking class. But still, it is a personal thing.

As for GLs, let me clarify... it will be a GL if it is made for profit? I

Hi again. Uhm I just need to clarify things from your persepective:
1. What constitute dramas for you?
2. What constitute a GL for you?

I kind of read through your exchange with @synchonicity and slightly confuse with some aspects. Because PND is GL and you said it is not. Don't take it as negative. I just want to get your view on the question above.

:) yeah. That's why I am here watching it to check if my hunchwill be wrong.

Yeah. That's why I included the word 'often,' it is not absolute, Ton might be bisexual and/or he is gender fluid. Also, 'meanings' will absolutely come from the viewer, unless the show explicitly shows it to the viewer via different plot techniques and exposition.

Still, I hope that line won't be used.

I also think he will. I hope he will not though, because that line often implies being gay is a choice.
