An idol drama is a drama that features traffic actors as the leads and focuses heavily on visuals and creating that wow effect. It also *typically* focuses on wish fulfillment and entertainment over depth. Idol dramas aren't bad - many of my best dramas are idol - but it's just a different focus. It's kind of like the difference between an HBO show and a CW show, if you grew up watching American media.
Trying to wrap my head around the Fujibayashi Yasunari that was in Punks’ Triangle as AE and his role here 🤯…
He's so good. My mind was already blown at the difference between Enaga and AE, and then now here he's playing a scumbag and he's doing it so well. What can't he do???
Tbh i lovvve big jane like he is so beautiful, his acting is great and everything. I can't connect with lil jane…
oh god I feel the exact same way about LJ. His acting just isn't for me - I feel uncomfortable watching him. that scene at the end of ep7 and start of ep8 was extremely uncomfortable 😐
I'm just wondering where he got a backup pair of contacts. Since he only wears the glasses because he has no contacts - but suddenly by episode 2 he has replacements. It's definitely weird but a minor issue
His face is everything. His expressions are so natural. It's like he's responding to events in his actual life…
honestly, it's very unique. it's a mix of romance and political drama, and both plots are really well written. I dislike it for other reasons, but the plot is amazing
I love how the glasses were a whole plot point in episode 1, but then in episode 2 he goes to the amusement park without them. zero continuity 😂 or are they going to explain it later?

LOL I thought my eyes were lying to me how Shixian's hair is vibrant blue in one scene and then faded the next. But this show is a perfect example of how chemistry can just totally save a low-budget production. I don't think it would feel the same if the actors were different.
Also totally agree about OSTs needing to get on Spotify and other platforms. Even Tiger in my Love isn't on Spotify yet, I have to listen to it on YouTube. I notice that Thai BLs are better at having their songs on platforms, I guess because Thailand is very consciously pursuing a global market. Are you watching Edge of Horizon? The main lead also sings the OST there and it's so freaking beautiful.

When Shixian is confronting him about paying the bills, and he looks so pleased with himself after that conversation cause he knows there's nothing Shixian can do about it. I died, the actor is too good.

The fact that I know exactly the scene you're talking about!!!!! Love it so much. He's so goddamn cheeky. I want to post another scene also but I'm not sure if you've watched up to there, so I'll just say it's when they're at the hospital, and then you can look at the comment under this if you want
