so… eps 4 happend and I’m done I can’t watch another episode today, I’m taking my time with this drama…
the ending of episode 4 had me sinking into my chair, oscillating between screaming at the screen and holding my breath because of how devastating everything was. the way the situation and their emotions spiral so deeply out of their control while jeongyo tries hard to protect pi o and pi o is enraptured in his hurt. impeccable.
For once when I open this comment section I'm not met with endless hate but instead actual discussions, analysis and appropriate talks, it feels so refreshing. Either I've blocked all the homophobes on here, they've finally shut up or they've left once they realised this isn't going the way they wanted - either way, it's calmed my mind a little.
I really do hope this has a happy ending, especially for Pi O. I think he deserves at least that much.
issues I do have : The cringe videos Do not make Dean more attractive, and that lame butterfly art Jesus
This is the only peeve I have about this series, the reused butterfly art and fake reels feel so half assed like they couldn't be bothered. I'm genuinely enjoying the series a lot until I see them and it irks me
Are you sure are not just upset because the guy kissed a girl instead of another guy and validating that thought…
100% they are trying to maliciously spin this to try and call bl fans out, when it's just basic human sense that you don't kiss someone when they are vulnerable. that's called taking advantage of the situation, not a "romantic kiss"
This is exactly the problem with these comments—you’re treating anyone who doesn’t ship Pi-o and Jeongyo…
Oh, please. It's the fact that people clutch onto what they think "could've been" between the man and the woman while completely disregarding what is actually going on between the two men. It's selective, and yes, that stance is homophobic.
Quite frankly, I don't care if you don't ship Pi O and Jeongyo, and I agree not shipping doesn't make you homophobic - it's the part where people absolutely cling and hope for Pi O and Jae-in to be a couple just because they don't want him to be in love with Jeongyo. The tiny interactions between Pi O and Jae-in are praised because they want to push the agenda, while ignoring all the intense build up between Jeongyo and Pi O and calling it "just friends".
It's where you ignore every indication that Pi O could love and care for Jeongyo. This tragic turmoil he is going through right now shows how deeply he cares about him, and yet every one of you only care about pushing the straight ship.
Why is Jae-in automatically assumed as Pi O's partner? Because she's a woman. You label it as "romance" even when it is not there.
I'm not shutting down criticism, I'm shutting down the abhorrent hate.
Ironic how the crazies in the comments are using Jae-ins kiss on Pi O as a "gotcha!" moment to deny what is between Pi O and Jeongyo. Just because you people so desperately want it to be straight, it's funny how you are pushing this childish one-sided "romance" with Jae-in. Pi O has paid her no attention from the first episode, and his emotions obviously invested with Jeongyo. Jae-in is the most stereotypical "annoying little sister with her first crush" type character.
Those who want Pi O to end up with Jaein - please, come on, raise your standards. It's embarrassing, forcing a nothing-burger relationship bc you hate gays or the idea of them being more than friends.
This is an unfair straw man you've created. You're critical of others for not being understanding and open-minded,…
I think you have misunderstood my intention. My comment was not aimed at those who want to focus on their connection as musicians and their craft. Nor am I lumping everybody together who doesn't want them to be romantically involved and accusing them of being homophobic.
People are allowed to dislike romantic elements. Obviously not everyone likes romance, and that's okay. But my problem is when they do so purely because they are two men, and from the majority of the comments here that is where the disgust stems from. But as you described, this is not where you stand at all, so I have no issue with that and I was not aiming this at you.
I understand where you are coming from and respect it, although I think my perspective is slightly different. I agree that the connection between two musicians can be much deeper than just romantic or sexual attraction. But I don't think romance is necessarily superficial either. If it's written well, their romantic relationship can actually deepen their connection to each other and to their art, because it becomes part of how they understand and influence one another as people and musicians. I think it really depends on how the romance is portrayed — it can be shallow if it's reduced to sexual tension or infatuation, but it can also add another layer to their music and their relationship rather than taking away from the artistic connection.
But the point still stands that I'm not calling anyone who doesn't like romance as a homophobe, maybe I should have made that clearer initially.
Simply: if one of them was a woman and you would still dislike it if they were romantically involved (which is where you seem to be) then I have no problem with you. Its the homophobic people I detest.
