Yep. Oh, and don't forget:Kuea: "I'm breaking off the engagement."Lian: "Why?"Kuea: "You said you don't love me."Lian:…
All of these scenes, with the perpetual smirk on Lian's face, as he gazes into the close to tears, in the eyes of his "Annabelle" Kuea, as he slowly realizes that he will have to keep up with this persona, for the rest of his life, if he does go through with this marriage.
That's not fair! This show has also been about lying, dogs, avoidance, sex, Kuea's general inadequacy in the eyes…
Yup. There is no way that Mandee will not see their YT views, along with the appeal of viewers that like MaxNat, especially now that Nat is getting older, as a way to leverage off the CP adaption. Maybe the NB adaption in 2023.
I try to call it out every time it makes me uncomfortable in relation to the way it's portrayed. Fo example, (KP…
"The show is responsible for itself."
Exactly, and again, CP is an entirely different series (with a different theme) from KP. Why is KP always being used as a comparison? What about these shows currently, "La Cuisine", "Our Days", "Cupid's Last Wish", "Dear Doctor, I'm Coming For Soul", "What's Zabb Man", "DNA Says Love You", "Plus & Minus", "Triage", or even "Fukou-kun wa Kiss Suru Shika Nai!"?
You know, when this drama first came out MDL users treated Kuea like he needed leashed to a post in Lian's yard…
"Having parts of ourselves we don't share with our lovers, fiances, parents, friends, siblings etc... That's perfectly normal."
It is normal, but seeing how certain folks, were just aghast by that concept, it really brought to surface, that many people aren't allowed , or even expected to keep parts of themselves from others.
Okay I get a question. Who wears his or her visual aids to the bathroom and has them on while he or she is bathing?…
Sure, it's a bit stupid for you, but for the character of Nuea, I think he actually prefers seeing Toh wearing his glasses, especially when his attention, and focus is on him. Nuea loves knowing that he's physically, and sexually appealing to Toh. He gets a thrill out of knowing that Toh looks at him all the time.

Along with the belief that Kuea should be grateful to have someone in his life, that wants to take care of his every need. Just as long as he remembers to behave.
It's interesting that some people find it creepy that Toh collects things from Nuea, but this reminds me of the…
It also reminds me of what us fans do when we collect or purchase items, that are connected to the actors, singers, performers, artists, etc that we appreciate throughout our lives.
He never told Lian about his major, being Kirin, making music, interest in sports cars and his motorbike. Sure…
"For me, that's why Kuea is not mature enough for a relationship... not because he didn't tell Lian, but because Kuea actually thinks that any of that is a big deal. Not in an adult relationship, it's not."
Agreed, and I'm glad that Kuea chose the right thing, in not accepting Lian's inappropriate and public marriage proposal.
Kuea has been raised to believe, that having any sort of goal in his life, that isn't focused on his future, as the spouse of his attended, isn't acceptable. That belief has been ingrained in him from childhood. I'm not surprised that he kept up that lie, withheld the truth, put on the "Annabelle" persona for so long. He never was allowed to be his true selve with his parents, so he was never going to be able to let himself trust his future spouse, and now he's placing all that blame on to himself. Which isn't all his fault. Lian is also responsible for how things have ended up for both of them. Remember, he knows everything about Kuea's life, yet chose to not say anything to him. Constantly testing him. No wonder Kuea believes that he's a failure.
i was starting to like her a lot too. and when she said she thought (even if it was only for a little bit) that…
"And creates a whole new set of problems."
Agreed. If (and when) Le Chien actually admits, that he has real romantic feelings for Amber, he won't be able to accept that initially confession of affection. Amber will believe, that Le Chien is confusing his feelings for him, for what he feels for Wen Wen. The "girl" from his childhood. Le Chien will have to convince him, that his feelings for him, are based on who Amber is now. Not who "she" used to be in their childhood. That's why I loved that TPTB named this series, "DNA Says Love You". Their bond is all about who they are, and not about what they are. The experiences they had. Their memories. It goes beyond gender. It's apart of who they are as individuals.
Nope, it isn't bad. I actually cheered. Then when Kuea started placing all the blame onto himself for "shaming" and publicly humiliating Lian, it really proved my thought that this young man, hasn't had any chance at all, to deal with the pressures of how this potential arranged marriage was going to effect his present sense of self.

Well, at that point, Yu He knew that she would never really have a chance at what she's hoped to have with Le Chien since their childhood (him falling in love with her), so I don't think she told him about Amber, so that he would somehow reject him , and choose her in the end. I think that she thinks, that Le Chien "deserved" to be told the truth, due to him pining for their childhood friend, but it just wasn't her place to say anything. She took that right away from Amber. She probably thought that she was being helpful, to both of them.
Yu He (after her talk with her brother), knows that whatever may happen between Le Chien, and Amber, her wish of Le Chien seeing her as more than a "super good friend" will never happen. Never. She has to let go of that wish, so that she can let herself move on, and hopefully find someone else. I don't hate the character, but it was great to have a scene of her acknowledge her feelings of resentment, hurt, jealousy, anger, and knowing that it made her feel horrible for having those emotions against a good friend, that she too also missed.
