Had this not been marketed as an adaptation of Why R U? I would have been less disappointed in this series. They made it into another cookie cutter KBL. It's a shame because the acting, and the chemistry were better than most KBL, and the intimate scenes were very well done for Korea. The storytelling was weak. I hope that if they do another adaptation, at least give it more episodes. I would have loved to have seen more screen time for the Sunwoo and Gyeom couple. I felt their story wasted a lot of time sitting at bus stops. I think that viewers who hated the original, may enjoy this series. The actors did well, the storytelling, no so much
For the people who may like this series, the manga has been in serialization since 2019. It also has been recently licensed in English. There is also a box set of this series coming out. As long as the Japanese audience supports this series, it will be popular, regardless of what we think here. I'm sure there are people globally who wonder why the English speaking world is into the Real Housewives and Kardashian shows. I will miss this dumb couple after next week. I will miss Asuka and Shu as well.
I think a big part of the lukewarm reception to the topmew pairing comes from how unclear it is what the show…
People could be bored because Top and Mew's story, is like a real life seemingly non-toxic, dating story. No crazy drama, no accidental fall kisses, and no high octane on camera sex. Because I've seen the trailers, I feel Top and Mew's relationship is like a termite infested structure. The outside looks fine, but if you lean on a wall, the whole thing will collapse. I feel like I'm sitting on a rollercoaster, but I'm still riding to the top of the drop. I will be so disappointed if Mew doesn't get some sort of (non-violent) revenge when Ton and Top's secret is revealed.
I'm not sure why they dubbed Long Lee's voice with an MC or game show host's voice, but let Frank use his natural voice. One of the director's previous projects was, "On Cloud Nine," which was a beautiful under the radar series. Then I looked at the screenwriter's credits, and they include, "Even Sun," "That's My Candy," and "The Best Twins." I think that I've found my answer. This series is making me laugh nonetheless. Now I want to crack the enigma of Thod.
let me be honest...I don't get the complaining....if you don't like the whole point of the series then just don't…
Many people do not understand this is a personality trope, the tsundere and the puppy. Minato went to the hospital everyday, missed Shin very much, but it is too overwhelming to think about for him. In 30 years, they will still behave like this, just like Asuka will still be sparkly, while Shu will still be deadpan. I love this show because I know that Akira is always on the verge of exploding because he just can't handle his emotions. My favorite pairings are odd couples, so to get two odd couples in a series, I'm in heaven. I'm hoping that the other Sakuma sensei pulls a wife or girlfriend out of his back pocket someday. Or we find out that he is the watermelon shake guys boyfriend. I don't know if they showed a wife at the watermelon shake stand.
It's the reaction of a person who thinks that Yi does not remember him, and after he just told Yi that they were…
I would be shocked if my fiancee told me that he could not remember me, then kissed me that way, while I was sleeping. I would think that he had a personality change to kiss a sleeping person that he doesn't know. haha. That's when I would have realized he was tricking me and would make him pay! Yi should just tell Diao what is going on, and that you fear for his safety. He isn't the little child who got attacked by the tiger. I know this is from a novel, but it would be nice to see a BL Murder She Wrote series.
However, I agree with Diao acting like a high schooler though. Even his rebellions are childish, albeit a child with money. Running off to Switzerland is the wealthy adult version of running to your best friend's house in 8th grade. Isn't Koh Samui or Chiang Mai far enough to make a point? I just hope that Lian can keep his mouth shut, because I would sleep with one eye open if Kuea finds out about this scheme.
Lian had better know how to keep his mouth shut, because if Kuea finds out that Yi is okay, he will be a general in Diao's army. I would be scared of pissing Kuea off.
WTF was Diao's reaction to that kiss? It's fuckin stupid. The virgin-like approach, after over 5 + years together,…
It's the reaction of a person who thinks that Yi does not remember him, and after he just told Yi that they were breaking up because Yi cheated on him. I would not expect a person who says he doesn't know me and a "cheater," to kiss me like that either. Diao trying really hard to break up with Yi is kind of funny though.
Hmm... I get the impression that many of you guys think TopMew is boring and has no plot but I can't be the only…
I like Top and Mew, and I'm just waiting for the lid to explode on their story arc. Once they have sex, and the video comes out, it will be a rocky ride. People already can't stand Top, but in the trailer, it shows him downing a bunch of pills, so the their train still hasn't left the station.
Please don´t hate on me but i swear that I love Boston and Nick..yes i know they are toxic both of them, they…
I enjoy watching all of the couples, including Boston and Nick. All the characters are stereotypes of the types of people we meet when we are young adults. The only stereotype that I have not personally met is the Boston type. I do not really associate with people who have sociopathic traits, and if I have, I would not maintain that friendship. I'm just blown away by Neo's acting in this series. He has always been a good actor, but he goes from sweet, to sinister, to conniving, to flirty, and on and on. I like Top and Mew, we haven't seen the hidden layers yet. Once the cat is out of the bag, I think that things will heat up.
This is not a nice thing to say but, could we stop with the Kim and Jelai story arcs already? Now she will be with the Korean guy who secretly speaks Tagalog. I'm not sure why Oxin always has these side couples. I don't need to see Lorraine, or Kim, or Chukchuk. There are 5 potential side couples right now (Kim, Jelai, 2 roommates and they guys they hate, Lorraine) and I want more focus on First and Zeke.
So everyones opinions please 🙂. Do you think all couples are gonna have a happy ending like most Thai bls or…
I don't think so. Ton and Nick are in a toxic relationship. Mew and Top's relationship is filled with deceit. I'm hoping that Ray and Sand have a happy ending, but I'm not sure if they will. I hope that Sand and Nick stay friends. The other friends can part ways and I wouldn't care.
What's your opinion on Ray? What's his agenda with Sand? Does he actually like him? Does he just want a distraction…
I think he cares about Sand, but isn't ready to give up on Mew. I'm not sure what Ray's back story is with Mew, to hold on to his feelings for so long. Mew has set definite boundaries, so I'm not sure what's behind it. There's an old 70's song with lyrics, "if you can't be with the one you love honey, love the one you're with." Maybe that's what his is trying to do to move on.
Also MEW out of all people to call, you call BOSTON?? Couldn't you call Chueam??? damn 😂😂
I think he called since Boston introduced them, and Mew thought he would be happy for them. Things will change when he finds out about the car sex, and the video.
Arrrgh!!! I have so much rage at Ton!Can someone just delete this toxic bastardIt's like he can't stand anything…
Without Ton, I don't get to watch Neo's acting skills in this series. Seriously, I think that Ton has sociopathic traits, but I'm not a psychologist or psychiatrist.
I love Boston, I love the chaos it causes. But one thing I can't understand is why the others became friends with…
I think it's because he introduced Top to him, so he feels that he wants to share the news with him. Mew doesn't yet know about the car sex or that Ton secretly wants Top. He still sees him as the guy who introduced him to Top, and thinks that Ton will be happy that for him because he now loves Top to the point where he is ready to have sex with him. Mew isn't in on the secrets yet.
However, I agree with Diao acting like a high schooler though. Even his rebellions are childish, albeit a child with money. Running off to Switzerland is the wealthy adult version of running to your best friend's house in 8th grade. Isn't Koh Samui or Chiang Mai far enough to make a point? I just hope that Lian can keep his mouth shut, because I would sleep with one eye open if Kuea finds out about this scheme.
