This was definitely The Dark Side and art cinema crashing head-on into each other. 🎞️🎭👿🎞️

It's going to be weeks before I can go near a kitchen blender again. . . 🙈

🎈🎈Happy Birthday ! ! 🎈🎈

I really liked this episode. 🥰
I have also started the countdown clock for Sailom to give us an 'Umbrella Confession' in the next nine episodes. 🫤

I watched all of 'About Youth' devotedly and wanted to see the umbrella scene go full circle and get explained. . .and it didn't happen. 😫☔😫

In return, I need Sailom to come forward and produce that second umbrella by early November. . . 🤣

It was bearable and there's a good story in here somewhere. . .but if Luv screams at Thad for cake in the next few episodes. . .I'm going to wait until October and binge-watch it. 😆🍰😆

It still looks like Frank hasn't been out of the service long enough for his own hair to grow back in yet, either. 👧🏽

I hear you. . . 😬

I watched 24 episodes of "Stay With Me" and I got to see a pitchfork-worthy character played well enough for me to throw food at the monitor during the episode. 👿

If you ever make your way over to watch "Be My Favorite", you'll get to make yourself familiar with Not. 🤣
This character and the one in "Stay With Me" could be twin brothers.
👿🖤👿

There's a bounty on Lom's head, too, over at "Wedding Plan" if you feel like watching that (and another round of MAME at the helm). 😆

The angst is amongt us, and the struggle is real. 😨
We'll need more boba and more Lay's chips. 🧋🫔🧋

Hey Hia - 😁🥦🧋

You let the screenwriters get by easy with this one. . . 😆

As soon as Lee Jun started his spiel about, "I'm not successful, I don't have experience, and I'm nothing special. . ."
. . .I was convinced that you were going to give us a serving of "Here comes Pat again". 🤣

Your recovery from 'Step By Step" is now complete. 🏆
🤣🤣

I really liked the subtle jab in Episode #8 directed at all of the haters. 😈

Having Krist playing Hack. . .and then leading a discussion about social media, hate comments, and having one's reputation attacked was a clever way to exact a bit of revenge on the Dark Side. 😁

For all of the negativity that has been thrown at Krist in recent years, it was nice that they gave him this scene in here. . .even if it was directly followed by a serious plug for Dutch Mill. . . 🥛🍶
🤣

This main role for Gawin may have come up on short notice. . .but I'll bet that from here onward he's going to get a lot of offers for more. 😁

I can't picture anyone else that could have done as well playing Pisaeng. 🏆

I usually get worried when a series gets heavy-handed with a lot of flashbacks, but here. . .it's a perfect fit for the story. 😁

I'm loving the great back-stories we're getting about all of these characters, and how we've been told so much about them compared to Episode #1.
We're not even halfway through the series, and I feel as though I've known Mi Hyun for years. 😆

It may be rude (even in a MAME series). . .but I am now on board and fully committed to calling both of the Moms "Thai Karens". 👿👿

They made me throw my popcorn at the monitor. 🥺🍿🥺

🎈 Happy Birthday ! ! ! ! 🎈

🎈🎉🎀🎁🎂🎁🎀🎉🎈

I'm included. . . 🦊🐺🦝🤣
When we get another sleep-over or two, I'll be looking for either a loosely wrapped towel or push-ups in the apartment. 🥵

As long as it isn't Choi Jun's place. . . 😬
Lee Jun would be apt to crash at Choi Jun's and then discover the likes of a big map on the wall with all of Lee Jun's whereabouts in the previous two months. 💖🤣💖

Whoa. . . 😨
Calm down a bit, everybody. 😧
All of you are getting feral again. . . 🦊🐺🦝
🤣🤣🤣

Hey Hia - 😁🥦🧋

I'm glad you got to see this one today. 🤣

It was fun seeing a drunk Jun and a panicked Jun in the same room. 🥴😬
When they were on the couch, I was almost expecting "soft" Jun to add, "It must be an American thing I wouldn't understand. . .like the way they all put melted cheese on everything except their avocado toast. . ." 🤠

Thanks for the reference about Chingu, too. 🤣
I'm putting that on the short list next to, "What in the '2Gether' was that??"
* inserts a big High-Five during the finale *🖐🏽
🤣

I was hoping to see 'Cooking Crush' this summer, but they're in the middle of filming and I can only guess that we won't see that one until almost December. 🫤
It'll be worth the wait. . .especially to Gun and his sister on the same screen together. 😁

I was hoping for '23.5' fairly soon, but they just started recasting the roles that Gemini and Fourth were supposed to be playing.
That means most of the filming probably hasn't even been thought of yet. 😬

Most of these shows are about 3-4 months from the month of filming until all of the 88 other details are put in, aren't they? 🎞️💖🎞️

8500 comments here already. . . 😧
Am I reading that right??? 😆

We did it. . .we made through Friday again. 🤗🎈🎀🎈🤗

I loved Episode #10. . .but I've loved all of them. 🥰
Choosing the best episode so far would be like choosing one of your children over the other.
. . .unless one of the children was Not. . . 😟

They've been really careful to keep the quality coming to us every week, so I'm reaching really far with these last two episodes. . .and saying that they are not going to be the usual-formula wild rides that we usually get at this stage of things. 😨
🚫 No car accidents 🚫 No hospitals 🚫 No amnesia 🚫
In other words, we might not have to see the "pendulous laminate" Episode #11 Curse. 😆

I do think we'll get a cliffhanger that'll make us throw our popcorn at the monitor, and I do think there is a 'Twilight Zone' twist coming that will melt our fluffy brains. . . 😨
. . .but I think we're in good hands with the way this story is being handled. 🤗

In this episode alone, they gave us our wish list of Max scenes, the Not scene, Kawi eating his own weight in food, a better view of Mom, and Gawin getting too close to Krist's ears at least once. 🥰

I'm on board with everyone more than slightly nervous about that crystal sitting on the desk, though. 🔮
Pisaeng has read the whole diary cover to cover. . .he knows what this thing can do. . . 😬

I've already made some specific opinions about the crystal, the Old Guy on the bench, and who might be the 'Wizard Behind the Curtain' for everything we've seen this summer. 🫣
I might be wrong about a lot of them, so I'll keep them to myself for two more weeks. 😆

5 days and 21 hours until Episode #11.
This is going to rough again. 🥵
I've already done the Episode #1 - #8 rewatch, so I might just replay the last episode's long-awaited Not scene over and over as a screensaver until next Friday. 🎞️😆🎞️😆🎞️😆🎞️

When the studios pull strings like this, I'm always assuming that it's a scheduling thing for them and the actors. 😬

Then again, GMM-One managed to cast Gameplay (who went to a professional cooking school) in one of the few roles in "Bite Me" as someone who DIDN'T work in the restaurant.
🤣🤣🤣
I'm really hoping for the best with everything in this one, though. 🥰

The scene outside of the nightclub had to be a lot of fun for everyone in the crew. 😄🎥🎬😆

It was hard to tell if I was seeing Kawi laughing at how drunk Pisaeng got. . . 🥴😂
. . .or if it was Krist trying to keep a straight face while Gawin went way off-script. . . 🥴😬

I loved this scene. . .it made up for not seeing Max for the whole episode. 😁
