I would say it is not a BL series but more a series about BL. So we do not know where this is going. I cannot see into the future neither. I guess, however, there will be a lot of happy endings for all: grandpa, the orphans and probably also for Guy... I am rather scared that there might be too many tropes and stereotypes about BL...

I feel so old.... Seing someone born in 1996 being 30 now....

I think it is more that BL is a theme or plot device in this series. It is obviously about someone writing about BL. We will, therefore, have some scenes. And the grandson and his school friend are already building a ship. However, it is probably a sub plot, not the main focus. So far I enjoy it. Someone above remarked, it is similar to Absolute Value of Romance, and I agree (not all, but in general regarding the BL as a topic).

What time is this set in? I used to have the exact same mp3 player, but that was around 20-25 years ago...

Stimme dir da zu. Ich habe das jetzt auch "gedroppt". Schon Episode 3 hatte ich irgendwie im Hintergrund laufen, während ich mir was zu essen gemacht habe. Und bei Ep4 hatte ich schon nach wenigen Minuten das Handy in der Hand. Ich glaub, das liegt auch einfach an der Story. Die ist zu dünn, um sie so aufzuplustern. Und gebe dir auch bei den Schauspielern recht. Ich finde zudem, dass da null Chemie zwischen den beiden ist. Ich droppe sehr selten Serien, aber gerade laufen so viele Serien. Ich muss da mal Prioritäten setzen. Kann eh nicht alles anschauen.

Oh. That is sad.

Vietnam. I watch it all the time on YT. But today I do not see anything.

I am confused. Is rhere no new epiaode? It is 21:45 already. Wating for nearly 1,5 hours....

When I think of it now, watching ep 10: the concept of housing all contestants in three different buildings with stairways and long pathways in between, in winter, isn't the best concept. It prevents natural communication. In the other seasons all lived under one roof and could easily interact. Someone mentioned below in a comment we had not seen so much of Hyun Jun and Son Wook, but I think it is because of this (and the fact that HU is not very talkative).

It really would be better to have all in one building.

By the way, does Su Min not only sleep alone but is alone in a whole building?

Thank you very much for your efforts! This explains a lot. I wondered if it is "mute love", but that did not make sense in the context of the series.

Ok, thanks. So I can relax and read through the forum. I was afraid I get some spoilers if some had watched ep 10 already.

Silly question but can anyone explain what Mu Te Luv means?

Have they released ep 8 and 9 and 10? I can only see eps 8 and 9.

I am too practical for this world. WTF would you start fighting with your father before eating that fav dish, the stir fried crab. God, everyone knows you eat first, then break up with your family. I do that every Xmas.

Love watching him, but his name is my worst linguistic enemy...

Sometimes you can see phone numbers in series. I always wonder, how many people grab their phones and call :D

I am watching slowly. Just finished ep 3. Not sure, but the vibe is different. I found the ending minutes of ep 2 nearly depressive. They were sitting in the living room on the sofa. William and Izaya were talking together, quite closely. And one metre away was Bomi, sitting alone and looking quite sad. The others also looked like they are a bit pi###ed. Not sure if that is a good idea to get some old acquaintances/ exes into the series? Somehow the life in the first season seemed to be more lively.

Currently my fav, though I must admit that it's slow. A bit too slow. I hope they overcome their silence soon and talk.
