I love that your type seemingly thinks freedom of speech is one-sided and their opinion cannot be ranked. I use name calling whenever I feel it is necessary. I have made a statement, and I am quite sure my point was getting across to those with some willingness of consideration. I clearly don't mean you.

I hate to break it to you but putting "period" to the end of your sentence does not make it eternal truth. Gay characters in BL world are rarely tragic, and I am a gay person myself, you are not speaking for everyone in the gay community, and I am just as much entitled to say I am sick of knee jerk SJW judings.
For some reason people started to demand lgbt romance to be pure and 100% non problematic soulmates cafe AU, when…
That is not even what I am talking about. There are no such clearly definable things as "healthy" and "normal" in human relationships. People are different, human relationships are complex and and complicated and they are full of grey zones. What I find astounding is the the extreme measure of infallible black and white thinkers and moral judges. I am not saying that everything is relative but moral values are not absolute and obligate.
Don't some folks ever ask themselves this question: Who the hell I am to define what relationship is "healthy" and "normal"? Seriously have not these peeps ever thought they should be a bit less entitled and self-righteous? Or at least not knee jerk?
Still intriguing and taut, if slightly less bone-chillingly mysterious than the first season. Very enjoyable and thought-provoking to watch. Pablo is still very difficult to read. Now it is quite obvious that he is not straight and more pan or bi, but I don't know what he feels for his gf. He admitted now he loves So, but does he still love his gf too or isn't he just not ready for a conflict to break up with her?
I think that the main goal, besides getting Jung Woo and Do Gun together (which I loved), was for Do Gun to actually…
What Laura and Jung Woo were doing is still despiacable but in fairness Do Gun was not really happy there anymore. When they were at the beach he admitted he wanted to open his own restaurant long ago but he did not have the courage and that he also felt burnt-out as he was unable to top his famous dish. In his new place as we saw, his creativity has returned.
After episode 6 I was honestly sceptical if they can wrap this up and smooth over with two short episodes, but actually they managed to. The only drawback is that Choi Jung Woo did not have the courage to tell Yoon Do Gun everything by himself. But eventually he was willing to quit and reveal everything, and Yoon Do Gun realized he must have resigned long ago and he should open his own restaurant.
If you are talking about episode 6, maybe you were mislead by some translation, because Choi talked about a dish…
I don't know Korean, so probably he does not. But since the restaurant is nearby the Spanish steps, maybe that is what they tried to imply (even if the Spanish steps in Rome has little to do with Spain).

He worked in a Spanish restaurant in Rome that was in Piazza di Spagna, close to the Spanish steps, that is why he talked about the name of the dish in Spanish.
It's not bad. I love it. Atleast watch it for yourself and form an opinion rather than just going with what everyone's…
I have just written under another show that you should never let yourself swayed and discouraged by comments from watching something you are curious about. I have started to watch a Pinoy show with overwhelmingly negative comments and I was very satisfied with it. You should especially be critical about mydramalist comments. This board is over-represented by forever moaners.
Another excellent example that you should never let yourself swayed and discouraged by comments (especially here on MDL) to watch something you are curious about. Always go and watch and see it for yourself. Despite the overwhelmingly negative comments here I binge-watched the first 5 episodes yesterday and actually I quite like it, it is pretty good. No great shakes, but interesting story line, amiable characters and quite neat performances.
It is not true that Jethro is unlikable. He was a bit of an arse in episode 1 but he apologized for his behaviour almost instantly and ever since then he has bee treating Mario with respect and care. Mario is idealistic and has little self-confidence but there are loads of people like him and this character is presented in an interesting and sympathetic way.
And yikes, once again a typical straight woman take on the relationship of gay guys. No, it is not playing with someone if you start a relationship where you are there for two months only. They are two consenting adults, they both start it by being aware of this. They can always change plans, Mario can move to the US with Jethro, Jethro could ask for being transferred to Manila, they can depart, whatever. It is all up to them. No love would ever start if people were always waiting for all circumstances being ideal. Jethro is obviously serisous about his intentions.
Since it is the story of Mario's first love from 4 years ago, told in retrospect, from his new apartment which he rented because it is close to Jethro's place, it is more likely that it was Mario who eventually fucked that up. I think it is possible that it remains the story of a first love with no reconciliation. I am fine either way, so far it is pleasant enough, but I hope they do reconcile.
Are we sure Madame Laura is about to fire Do Gun? The creators want us so much to think that way I started to wonder there might be a twist. Laura said at the beginning that she has ambitions and she wants to open a chain of restaurants. She never replies to Choi Jung Woo whether she plans to fire Do Gun. And when she told Choi Jung Woo that she and Do Gun have both rights over the special dish, that issue won't go away even if Do Gun is fired. And if the conspiracy scenario is right, making Choi Jung Woo the head chef was way too early.
