I had no intention of watching this at all but iQ stays disregarding my autoplay preferences, which is equal parts blessing and curse. Ended up being a blessing in this case though because I’m now 4 episodes into this adorable series!
It's true that there wasn't a strong hook but things seem to be picking up by the end of episode 2 what with the…
Interesting. I did see some comments mentioning it ended on a cliffhanger of sorts so those make sense now. In that case I’ll wait until Friday to rewatch episode 2 properly so that I can go right into watching episode 3 and determine whether or not I should drop it from there. Thanks! :)
It was a struggle to not pick up my phone while watching the first episode. By time the autoplay hit on the second I was completely tuned out. The opening scene was interesting, as were some of the flashbacks, but overall I found it bland and ultimately felt like it was missing something, though I’m not sure what that something could be.
I may circle back and give it another shot at a later point in time.
You literally answered your own complaint. If it’s a sensory overload thing for you, then it’s your personal…
The series isn’t for me and I knew that going in but I’m watching it anyway because I like the actors. I acknowledged the theme myself so obviously I do get its intent and correlation to the story and characters. The use of primary colors makes total and complete sense to me for this series given what it’s about.
Sensory overload or not, I just feel like they overdosed on the color palette to the point of being borderline obnoxious. That said, I don’t know that my personal gripe about this necessitated an “answer” of any kind. I was just making commentary as I was watching. I wasn’t attacking the series. As I said, it’s personally not my kind of series but by no means do I think it’s a bad series. Just not my trope and evidently not my color scheme lol
Is there anyone who used to like straight dramas so much but one day discovered a BL series then the rest is history…
Yes! One minute I was finishing up my usual K drama business and the next thing I knew iQ was autoplaying KinnPorsche. Had no idea what I was watching and was a bit taken aback once it was fully realized but by that point I was too enamored with the plot, cinematography, characters, etc to care. Didn’t even know what a “BL” series was 😭 iQ and their autoplay nonsense (which I have set to OFF btw) got me again sometime after that with Naughty Babe or TharnType. So now I watch all the dramas!
I’m sorry but the overabundance of primary colors is driving me mad. I can appreciate what they were going for and totally get the association of such colors with that of them being teachers but it’s just amplifying the juvenile weirdness of the plot for me. Not trying to be unsympathetic to those who suffer from age regression, it’s just at the end of the day is this not a romance story? I don’t want to be reminded of children at very turn in a romance where age regression is already a thing! Like even before the regression bit their home was giving kindergarten energy! I know they’re teachers but come on!
eta: maybe it’s just a sensory overload thing for me
I’m all for unrequited romances but the younger guy here is immature to the point of being unlikeable. He’s got me rooting for the older step bro and his girlfriend.
Help me out ya’ll… is this safe to watch in public? Lmao I need a new drama to watch when I’m on the treadmill at the gym and the last time I went in blind on a series during a workout it was My Stubborn and I almost had to switch gyms 😭
