but he paints in color & it comes in flashes, so even i am confused about the sudden grey scale that pops…
ah... don't recall that (as watched Blue Canvas of Youthful Days) but still it's not a block of color, u have to blend & shade.... idk never mind, maybe i am just nitpicky π π
is Hyeseong colorblind? im not quite sure what to make of the monochromatic scenes. lol
but he paints in color & it comes in flashes, so even i am confused about the sudden grey scale that pops up & how that's connected to them growing apart/breaking up. or why this seems like the reason Hyeseong wants to distance himself from U Jin π€·ββοΈ
in the 1st ep, they were bound to the chairs & the next sec not, in the 2nd ep JeongSu (who got beat & had red blotches on his face in the previous ep) this ep, his face was clear - no swelling no discoloration no nothing. π€·ββοΈ & given the fact that in the 1st ep Yu-Ho got a hard-on, even before his easy going attitude in the 2nd ep, i wondered was he in on it. the fact he knows JeongSu makes wonder what is going on & is the kidnapper also an acquaintance?
last ep to go & have a feeling that other then them "consummating" the act (actual grape, if u go by what we got in the 2nd ep, which was sexual assault), we not gonna get more info to clue us in about anything...
but have to say, Yu-Ho's behavior in the 2nd ep - i laughed out loud at him or rather at the faces JeongSu kept making.... poor JeongSu π€¦ββοΈ
after such a long wait most of this ep was solving Do's case & getting his innocent gf released. which would've been cool, if they had gotten to the point & not dragged it out - why we need scenes of both Arthit & Daotok counseling her about letting her sorrow show? given the place she was in - as she was still incrassated, what was the point?!?? when she got released & cleared, then she would have enough time to lick her wounds, weep & cry to her hearts content. but ok - guess "we" have to fill 14 more ep's... i so hope the next ep's not gonna be Daotok helping each of the ghosts in that room solve their murders & it getting dragged out for a whole ep - especially not if it's like this ep - it was so obvious what "they" were doing - shoddy writing - sorry.
this is too freakin short(!) & over in a blink, after 3 eps i feel like this is the start of something, that got cut short. so yeah Taejun took his "reward" but given the fact that Hamin in-spite of his crush, isn't ready to come out & admit to it - cause he isn't ready to admit that he likes men? or cause he isn't ready to admit to his feelings for Taejun... either way everything is left open for the viewer to fill in the blanks & personally i want & need more - more then what was offered, cause i liked the concept & the acting - so bummer π€¦ββοΈ
finally finished this, cause am waiting for the ep's of the 2nd season to get updated. so thought might as well - cause the 1st time around i dropped this midway - yeah i was stuck cause i didn't like either couple. Hill & Ter were boring, Ter just annoyed me by existing - just don't like this character. & even though North is my MVP in both seasons - i can't with the romance they have given him.
i get the focus of everyone shifts to Johan basically pining for & loving North from afar for 3 yrs... that is sweet & romantic - but when they actually get together, he is toxic as f*ck & i can't get behind his obsessive, possessive, domineering behavior, any more then i can get behind how fast North capitulated to this forceful, overbearing behavior & his loss of autonomy.
fantasy world aside, this toxic behavior if usually found in abusive partners that want total control over anyone in a relationship with them, they dictate their every move, tell them what to do & don't let them work, so they will become financially dependent on them - the only thing Johan didn't do was manipulate North into cutting all ties with friends & family. so seeing this behavior makes me shudder, not jump with joy cause "love". so get why everyone is gaga over the 2nd couple - but i can't be. if there was a couple that i found adorable & am sad nothing came of them (as they aint in the 2nd season) it's Tiger & Nao. bummer -
what does the after credits scene mean (in the special ep's)?? that Sara finally suffered a mental break? cause no matter how many times parallel universe is mentioned, the fact of the matter is that it was all a lie, made up by Sara cause he lost his memory after getting run over. everything got jumbled in his head & cause he was in-love obsessively with Fuu, he created that whole fantasy. but as the whole issue with his mother & their pending separation was prevented, why is Sara again facing his alter ego ?!?? this special was basically Fuu's dream sequence, not weird given all the parallel universe talk. but why Sara back to confronting his "demons"?!? just a way to pave a path to a 2nd season? hmmm as i wasn't that in-love with the 1st season, idk if i am looking forward to more.
even though i did enjoy the 2 ep's special - even more then i did the BL. so idk if i am for or against π π
Why did they break up?Why did they become a couple again a year later?Why?WTF!
yeah, the last ep was a mess & this a bummer, cause this started of so promising but towards the end, this lost the plot & was all over the place... kinda fizzed out into nothing. oh well thankfully this the end π€¦ββοΈ
idk if i am more confused or annoyed by this ep, don't get Yo Ki's defeatist attitude from the start of this BL. get that he didn't want to come out (cause he knew how the "public" would react), as even if he cleared his name in regards to the D-list actresses, he would still "lose face" cause he's gay - basically jumping from the frying pan into the fire. but he keeps bowing & letting people walk all over him & i don't get this behavior, not when acting is his way of supporting himself & no matter how much money he has, am sure he not that rich that he can retire - which is more or less how he behaved by the end - i can't understand what the point of this story is??? just give up & karma will "take care" of the "bad guys"?!? really??? plz - the fact the manager & the D-list actresses got exposed was cause of curious netizens (that started to wonder after Yo Ki came out) not cause they care about him -
also i kinda didn't care to see Yang Meng after he said goodbye to his grandmother, what was the point? waste of screen time IMO -
ironic that the couple that is shining in this BL r the 2nd couple, that almost didn't have any screen time, yet here they at the stage of meeting the family. cute how in-love both r.
i feel so bad for Lin Feng Song cause if i heard right, he is funding this project & it was his & his partners (Chen Wen) dream, since Addicted. & i really was rooting for this BL, sadly this fell short on the writing. the plot that could've been so much more is just bland & is flat, especially after all the hype this got since we knew it was gonna air. bummer π₯
really wanted to love this & was kinda enjoying the very innocent & sweet relationship between Sun & Lin (especially as watched Big Dragon not long ago), but by ep 3 it started to get old. it turned from sweet to infantile... like sorry, but no matter how much of a virgin u r & how little knowledge u have about sex - Lin lacks basic common sense(?) that he is so naΓ―ve he puts his hand on Sun's crotch & doesn't realize, the result?!? - this one scene among a long list, that i just couldn't ignore the stupidity of it all. add to this the fact that as much as Lin's bff r supportive, they r doubly intrusive & annoying, the side couples (neither one - could care less about the GL or whatever that was supposed to be, talking about the guy's only) could make me tough it out & stick to the bitter end. which would be bitter given the fact that from ep 5, i basically fast-forwarded the whole ep - so stopped in ep 7 cause that's no way to watch a BL or rate it.
there people that enjoyed this & cause of them i gave it a go in-spite of the bad reviews & rating. oh well at least i tried, sadly this was a waste of time for me β
yeah, from what i read one of them (i forget who) got married & divorced a 1yr later & went after the other one. they have been together for over a decade - i also heard that they have been living in Thailand - but idk how much of this is accurate. but there a lot of their vlog where they r like a couple - celebrating new yrs etc...
idk what surprised me more, the fact the main couple r a couple in real life or that LFS funded this BL, which i guess they wanted to make since Addicted. hope this helps them create more BL's, cause i doubt the mainstream industry is that welcoming of gays, let alone anyone that starred in a BL. so the only way they can achieve something, is if they succeed with this BL, so they can fund more π
I know it's just a Japanese BL series, so don't expect too much, but...is this what love looks like? After all,…
must say reading ur comment, i wondered if we were watching the same BL - cause i thought they very in-love & show their affection constantly. maybe there no NC scenes, but they r very very affectionate & loving IMO putting the impending separation aside, the main couples depicts a serious live in relationship, that is mature & biased on deep emotions, not just lust - this the type to relationship that will last /survive even the long distance faze.
so IMO this 2nd season & the couple r doing a great job in showing us, how deeply they love & care for each other π€·ββοΈ
these type of BL's r cute, but way too short & finish before they even get started. it was very sweet & enjoyed the chemistry between the mains. that built in a blink, but it didn't feel rushed & we got the whole plot. still, this just a taster & most BL fans want a full meal π€·ββοΈ
I think itβs mostly a matter of personal feeling. If someone doesnβt like a couple, their scenes can quickly…
maybe u r right... & i like Fah, now Teh is another matter - even though i only have a problem with him when it comes to his behavior with Jimmy & Toh. still i feel like almost every ep, their scenes end up being sexual. & as a BL viewer, it aint new to see varying levels of PDA, but mostly they don't come off exploitative - here it bothered me π€·ββοΈ
how ironic that the character that i have come to actively detest is Teh - i can't stand the MOFO & i am getting really tired of watching him & Fah's f*ck, it's starting to feel exploitative - not that i don't get why, as this whole BL is a bit of a drag, so they supposedly adding some much needed spice to every ep. but it just feels wrong. u can't freakin dump a whole bucket of salt into the soup, u need to do it in moderation π€·ββοΈ
side note: from the start been saying that Run the best looking guy here (Fah comes 2nd, sorry) & given his ex was an abuser, i get his thinking Jimmy was the best of the bunch - he isn't - Run should thank his lucky stars & move on, but hey i think Fah should do the same πβ
& given the fact that in the 1st ep Yu-Ho got a hard-on, even before his easy going attitude in the 2nd ep, i wondered was he in on it. the fact he knows JeongSu makes wonder what is going on & is the kidnapper also an acquaintance?

& read some comments basically talking smack about the Dentist, personally i think he felt something was off with Toh & was over doing it, in the hopes of not just lifting Toh's mood, but in the hopes of conveying his feelings. that's what a normal human will do, for someone they interested in, he over did it cause Toh was like a freakin wet blanket most of the time, giving zero reaction. so the Dentist kept trying. personally i think having to 'baby' someone for 2 months into any relationship would make most people reevaluate wanting to be in that relationship. but he fell hard (i guess) that after talking to Run, he decided Toh was worth the headache & he wanted to put some much needed distance between him & his ex. hoping it would take Toh out of his funk & make him finally notice the Dentist. too much work for an unworthy character IMO, but it is what it is when it's written this way. this whole ep & BL is full of clichΓ©s & tropes that r ridiculous... but 1 more ep to go thank f*ck π€¦ββοΈ
