waoh wait.... Is jet the guy from My Ride ??? When did join gmmtv ??
Just about the same time that 'The Whisperer' went off the rails and we didn't get the finale. ๐ซ I hope Fluke finally got paid his salary for it by now. . .most didn't. ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐
Seeing 24 episodes for this one seems like a lot, but it is exactly what I had been looking for in other series and I'm hoping for all the best here. ๐ช๐ฎ
We all have our own Top 5 List of shows (we might be thinking of the same ones) ๐๐คข. . .where we got to Episode 9 and were like, "Please, just get this over and done with". ๐
The majority of them, though, had me wishing for 6 more episodes just to keep the momentum and the feels going, to fill in some glaring plot-holes in the story, or just to see the side couple shirtless again. ๐
I lost count of how many times I got attached to one of the :19 minute shows from South Korea and wanted to see more character development and another 5 hours' worth of the story. ๐๏ธ๐ฌ๐๏ธ If 'The Eighth Sense' was still on the air, they'd be on Episode #91 and I'd still be watching it. ๐จ๐ฝ๐ฆ๐ฝ
Taiwan, too. . .if 'Kiseki : Dear to Me' was still on, I'd be tuning in for Episode #68 by now, and still looking forward to seeing the latest of the strawberry cakes and Ai Di's sweaters. ๐ง๐๐
I'm willing to see where 24 episodes of this series will take us. Force and Book are definitely positive reinforcements for finding out. ๐ I could watch Force just carry Book around on his shoulders while grocery shopping. . .and I'd be a happy viewer for :53 minutes. ๐ฅฐ This show could continue to surprise us all in a good way. ๐
I donโt care how much hate this series gets, itโs genuinely one of my favourite school-themed BLโs so far๐ฅฐ.…
Pilates. . . ๐๐ง๐ฝโโก๏ธ๐คธ๐ฝ๐คพ๐ฝ๐ง๐ฝ I was thinking of that one, too, before I even finished reading your sentence. ๐
One of the etceteras you had would have to be choreographer, as well. ๐๐ฝ๐บ๐ฝ Rooms filled with 30 people should be learning all of his dance moves. ๐
Thank you, screenwriters, for supplying the angst and torment for only :11 minutes instead of letting it go for the usual two full episodes. . . ๐ง๐ญ๐จ๐ฌ๐ณ๐ฅบ
I loved Episode #4 and the latest and greatest in the character development. ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ง๐ฝ๐จ๐ฝ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ง๐ฝ Slowly but surely, the pieces are coming together to explain what happened during the high school years to get us to the present. ๐ฌ
I do agree with what someone posted much earlier, though. . .๐ค It will be nice in the future to see Earth in a role where he finally has a supportive Dad who isn't completely toxic throughout the series. ๐ฟ๐ซ๐ฟ
It will definitely NOT be in a re-make of "Restart(ed)". . .๐
Easter needs someone like Uncle Cheep that Mork had in "My Ride". ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ต๐ง๐ฝ
The high point for me in the episode was seeing Earth and Sammy acting together in several scenes. ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ It has been forever since I've seen both of them where it did not involve a dance rehearsal, or a fan meet in Japan or Macau. โ๏ธ๐บ๐ฝ๐๐ฝโ๏ธ Seeing them anywhere is great, but having them here in the same scenes was nice. ๐
I'll be here for Episode #5 next week to continue the adventure. ๐
I'm loving all of this. . .but :09 minutes per episode? . . .๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐คฆ๐ฝ It's like Weight Watchers. ๐จ I'm craving :45 minutes, but I'm allowed only :09 minutes per serving. . . ๐๐
I wish that all of the South Korean filmmakers could get the full funding they need to go carte blanche on these shows. . .starting with Strongberry. . . ๐๏ธ๐๏ธ๐๐๏ธ๐๏ธ
Me thinks we might have to prepare ourselves for some serious angst coming up. . .even if our enchanted couple are both exactly on the same page as each other. ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ค๐ค๐ซ
Even if Ryo remains securely attached and devoted to his 'addictive puppy', the road ahead looks a bit rough despite love being a constant.
We could get :
Ryo having to throw himself under a bus with his status at the law firm to side with Haruto when and if charges are filed with the real estate scam case. ๐ฌ I think, when pressed to make a decision, Ryo would rather switch than fight and take Haruto over his career in law. ๐
The Underworld syndicate is likely to out Haruto in the real estate scam. . .just to get even with the way he turned against them. ๐ฅท๐ฝ๐ฅท๐ฝ๐ง๐ฝโ๐ผ๐ง๐ฝโ๐ผ๐ฅท๐ฝ๐ฅท๐ฝ Ryo and Haruto escaped from their clutches, but they are still out there. . .๐ฟ
If Ryo is offered an office in New York, we could get a badly placed, "We need to put our relationship on hold for two or three years while I go overseas". ๐จ๐๐จ However, Ryo has money, and Haruto now sees Ryo as a family he never had. . .so the puppy would be packing a suitcase for New York, too. ๐ . . .and escape extradition charges for the real estate case. . .๐จ๐ฝโโ๏ธ
These episodes are so short. . .whatever unfolds next week will happen fast. By the end of this series, Ryo and Haruto could both be practicing law together (from Haruto's quick reading of Ryo's book collection). . .or they could both be in semi-retirement living off of Ryo's severance package. . .and whatever Haruto wishes to do for his merry band of succulents. . . ๐
I was relieved to see the previews for Episode #8. . .I was beginning to feel like I was watching a 'Typical Episode #11' towards the end of this one. ๐จ๐ญ๐ฌ
I was also laughing a bit at the early foreshadowing of ". . .now that Yada and her men have stepped away. . ." ๐๐คจ๐ That was like watching 'My Dear Gangster Oppa', and every time someone said, "We're all good. . .Kenji is out of the way now". ๐
Besides that small bit, this was great episode, and it was great watching Min & Q together. ๐ฅฐ
With the underlying dark forces at work in this series, though, it still baffles me over the past few episodes that everyone was coming and going freely without a police escort or any armed security. ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐จ๐ฝ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฝ Then again, the cuddles wouldn't look as good with two suits standing right next to them. . .๐ง๐ฝโ๐ผ๐ง๐ฝโ๐ผ๐
When this series was about to start, I did not make even a remote guess that this was going to become a "Must-See Show for 2024". . .yet here we all are. . .๐๐ฅฐ๐
I loved this second episode. ๐ Seeing this cast together is like seeing close family over the holidays. โจ ๐ง๐ฝโ๐ง๐ฝโ๐ง๐ฝ๐
I can't wait to finally see Easter's back-story to understand why the past year was so cringeworthy for him. ๐ค๐ฌ๐ค
This setup so far reminds me a lot of 'To Be Continued'. . .with our main leads coming across early on as the borderline stalker vs the traumatized ex trying to put the past behind him. ๐๐ค It took a long while to get the full stories with them, so I'm settling in here, too, to see where this story takes us. ๐
This series has become the comfort zone for the week. ๐ I don't even mind the "eye contact followed by acapella singing" trope that has seeped its way into so many shows. ๐ถ๐ต๐ถ๐ซ๐ถ๐ต๐ถ After 'Remember Me', I had vowed to hit the mute button if the acapella came back. . .and I don't mind it here at all. ๐
Earth's acting here is spot on again. . .when he glared that jealous look across the campus, I could almost see the laser beams firing out of both eyes. ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐๏ธ๐๏ธ๐ฅ๐ฅ I can't wait to see this character at ease and not fighting his past so much. ๐ Easter has definitely seen some things in the past year. ๐ฅบ
Although this is not a BL but Tay & New are enough to continue.
We might be seeing the middle ground between BL and Friend Zone with this series, though. . .maybe. . .๐ When Peach mentioned, "I can play hard-to-get", I was thinking, this might be more on the lines of affection rather than just winning back a friend. ๐
However (after watching two full series of 'Minato'), I will be happy with whatever Tay and New bring to this show. ๐
Be it for watching Tay and New act alongside each other, or Force and Book. . .I had to watch this 7th episode for a second time already. ๐ฅบ
This was a beautiful episode on so many levels, and the way Force & Book's scenes were set up seemed so much like an art film compared to the others. ๐ ๐ฝ๐๐ฝ I'm sure I'll be watching this one again a third time before next Wednesday's show. ๐ฅฐ
I'm also holding back from judging Kan yet. ๐ง๐ฝโโ๏ธ There seems to be some 'Kidnap'-level, behind the scenes, double-agent intrigue going on that I won't make early guesses on without a spoiler tag. ๐ซ She might be involved with the real reason that Home was sent back to Thailand from the US, and the reading of the will might only be our present view of it. ๐
But I've been wrong on these guesses before. . .๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐
