And just like I was when watching My Stand-In, I can't possibly see how Fan Xiao and Shulang get back together…
I loathed Ming! I really wanted Joe to find someone else - anyone else, and I wanted to push Ming off a tall building! I feel very similarly about FX, but I want him tortured relentlessly first.
I was so obsessed when this show was airing that I built my morning routine around it on Mondays and Tuesdays, setting my alarm for. 4:30 a.m. so I could make my breakfast before 5:00 when the new episodes dropped. I regret nothing even though I went to work two or three times with red eyes! The tears were real. I miss them so much and the director really knew how to pull the emotions from this story.
I'm team FX so I'm just hoping he comes clean and YS forgives him šš. we know he's done questionable things…
This only works (sort of) in fiction, right? IRL, we should all run away as fast as possible from someone that messed up. I felt the same way about Ming in āMy Stand-Inā. I wanted Joe to end up with someone else - anyone else!
OMG, this episode crushed me - to the point that I want them to never reconcile! YSL needs to heal and find someone else (and yes, I know thatās not going to happen). In tears at 6:00 a.m.!
The writing in this show is a cut above! This is so well done - the dialogue, their inner thoughts⦠I love that neither one of them is naive or stupid. The result is that we get to watch the manipulation, the power struggles, etc. This show is like a game of chess and Iām so here for it!
Itās going to be Gyeon. Why? Because while the other two recalled ridiculous reasons for liking him when asked/interviewed (the baristaās falling in love moment was especially weird; how long was he going to stalk him with those flowers?!), I bet that Gyeonās answer will be something about Yoo Da Ha thatās deeper and more real. Iāve always rooted for him, so this ending will make me happy.
I went in with no expectations so i liked this episode. Iām annoyed that Gao Tu let his sorry excuse for a father interfere. (BTW, why do both bad guys in this series have a gambling addiction?!) I loved seeing Mr. Sheng and Hua Yong in their domestic bliss (ordering orange juice, etc.). Hua Yong may be psychotic, but at least Mr. Sheng doesnāt ever have to worry about being cheated on. A special episode would be nice to wrap up everything for our second couple who got shortchanged.
And once again GT chickens out on just telling SWL, dear god heās a frustrating character! Edit, I donāt need…
After he brought it up in a vague way and was tokd that SWL would want the baby aborted, GT had to distance himself both emotionally and physically. In his mind theyāre done and thereās nothing more to discuss. Thatās not chickening out; he made the only decision he could in these circumstances.
Shen Weng Langās cluelessness just annoys me. š I donāt like too much pining on screen anyway, because the couple is separated, but heās like a bull in a china shop, blundering and inevitably saying the exact opposite of what he should say. Iām glad this is so far playing out the way it is, because Shen Wen Lang doesnāt deserve him.
OTOH, yay for our peanut on the way! Iām a little miffed that Mr. Sheng told Hua Yong to never lie to him again, because after Hua Yong confessed that he wasnāt an omega, he never lied. Itās not Hua Yongās fault that Mr. Sheng didnāt believe him.
I love that throughout the entire series, including the special episode, weāre shown different sexual moods - sweet and sensual, hard and raunchy, etc. I feel a genuine emotional connection between the characters. (And having said that, Win needs to be quiet and stop making Jun feel needlessly insecure! Sorn loves Jun just the way he is and will never leave him!)
OMG, we got lube! Yay! Okay, setting that aside for a moment, I loved this episode. Theyāre still snarky and playful with each other, while being nauseatingly in love and domestic. I only wish Jun had trusted Sorn enough to tell him about that idiot who kept blowing up his phone.
Their intimate scenes are almost too much to watch, but their chemistry is still out of this world. Sorn with his hair down constantly⦠š„ Iām glad lube and condoms made an appearance, but I was wondering why the need for a condom considering theyāre in a committed relationship only sleeping with each other? I know, I know - I need to turn my brain off!
I was laughing when Jun was packing for Sorn and mentioned his beard and that he needs to shave regularly! I love whoever wrote this - they didnāt shy away at all from that ābeardā that had us all cracking up!
Hua Yong is unhinged! āDo you want to keep your right hand or your left?ā WOW. Still, itās nice to see Mr. Sheng softening towards him while still asking important questions to finally get the entire picture. And yes, I loved it when HY kissed him into submission. I liked the backstory of how HYās obsession grew because he saw Mr, Sheng as the only good man in a world filled with evil.

Iām so happy we get two parts to this!
