didn't expect this to be as funny as it was. as is was happy that was gonna see First & Khaotan together, i love their chemistry. it was touch & go there at the start, but it smooth-out perfectly. ********************************************************************************************************************************************wasn't that sure about the 2nd couple (before watching) as cause of them i couldn't even get through the 1st ep of Hidden Agenda. but here i totally loved Style, his hyper personality is a perfect counter to Fadel's cool & reserved one.*******************************************************************************************************************************************plus am just impressed by JC's acting, seen a few Thai-BL's where one of the mains is a tough-guy & the they might pass for a school bully, nothing more. so am impressed so far

going crazy after good grades is something i can't understand - & don't get me wrong, even my parents were after me to study hard & only ace my tests. but that's about it. if i got low grade i got an earful, lost TV privilege's or not allowance. but i wasn't sent to an academy after school, cause in my parents eyes children/teens need down time. am more then thankful that even though they were strict there weren't like the tiger-moms/parents we see in this drama. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************the teacher Hye Jin went to confront was scary, idk how she agreed to meet him again & in that setting where they were the only 2 in a room alone. also in-spite of being apologetic there was a very scary vibe coming off him. his words seemed more like a threat. wonder if this will come back to bite her as this drama progresses. ************************************************************************************************************************************************know that according to the description Jun Ho supposed to have a crush on Hye Jin, only me not detecting it?!? also ironic he is called Jun Ho here & in Squid Game - weird observation lol

i am gonna be a party pooper(!), but i didn't enjoy this ending. Do Ha didn't do a thing to win me back & i don't think he is worthy of U Hyeon or his love. if anything he gave the bare minimum & U Hyeon had to do all the heavy lifting. now if U Hyeon was Kwon Jun Su, would be beyond understandable. but that's not the case. *****************************************************************************************************************U Hyeon's only fault was that he didn't realize his 'heart' until it was too late (which - what is late? why was it late? why the deadline, cause of the bet?!?) can one schedulize emotions & feelings?!? ******************************************************************************************************************************************Do Ha was acting like a spoilt, immature brat for the last few eps & as understanding as i wanna be. he wasn't that understanding towards U Hyeo (& yes in his opinion he gave U Hyeo all the time in the world = since confessing) but still i can't rejoice in this coupling or this ending. *********************************************************************************************************idk how it develops in the Mahwah, guess will be checking it out in the hopes that there is enough time there, to make better sense of how this plot develops. so both guys r portrayed in a better light (i mean Do Ha). as is this was ok & if i rewatch this it will be only until ep 7. i better they part ways then what we got in the finale - but that's me.

this ep is hard for me to sit through, i keep stopping out of pure anger. it's not that i don't get why Do Ha is acting the way he is. BUT(!) he was the one that initiated everything with U Hyeon, U Hyeon was suffering cause of his unrequited love, all on his own. he wasn't bothering anyone, just suffering quietly, counting the days when he would start collage & put some distance between him & his crush/teacher in the hopes that his heartache would lessen & he would forget/move-on. but then Do Ha offered the bet & cause U Hyeon didn't 'jump too' standing at attention or rather falling to his knees pledging his undying love - he is ghosting him?!? really?!? *********************************************************************************************************************************************i hate this type of crap, U Hyeon isn't at fault - would anyone want someone that can have a change of heart in the blink of an eye?!? so cause its taking him time, he now deserves to be treated like he's invisible? so i am really getting infuriated with Do Ha's behavior & to think U Hyeon will have to beg & plead for anything, is just making me see red. *******************************************************************************************************************************************glad that at last the teacher gave U Hyeon some sound advise. still think dude was really flirty with a student, maybe it was a ego trip to have some young kid look at him with cow eyes. either way didn't like the dude.

get all the angst & frustration about not being able to communicate ones feelings, cause they all jumbled up. maybe u can't even understand what is going through ur mind/heart... *******************************************************************************************************************************************Do Ha having enough of waiting for U Hyeon to confess his love, but sadly as in life u don't get what u want when u want it. they both need to grow in every way, to understand themselves, let alone verbalize what they feel. so for now Do Ha chose to put himself first - which is good. maybe the distance is what will do both good. something that will also make U Hyeon realize how he really feels, about both his teacher & Do Ha.

i seriously wanna punch that teacher, like WTF is he doing?!? he ran away when U Hyeon confessed, sat mute when Do Ha told him to stop messing with U Hyeon. now he's back to buttering U Hyeon up. i am sorry (idk what is written in the Mahwah) or what anyone else says - this dude is lowkey flirting with his student. & as the adult in the equation, he needs to know better. even if he didn't realize, the sec he got confessed too, he should've stopped & distanced himself from U Hyeon - but nope. **********************************************************************************************************************************************am glad the whole back story between Do Ha & Jun Su amounted to a bad-friendship & nothing more. am sure Jun Su was interested in Do Ha but cause of his image or his friends he wasn't ready to face that side of himself. either way he deserved to get his ass handed to him. just wish Do Ha (who is usually very active, when it comes to the teacher & U Hyeon) was a bit passive, just avoiding Jun Su. the problem wont go away like that... well in reality it usually doesn't.

& the teacher is back to being weird (haven't ready anyone else noticing it, so guess it's just me) but idk dude is weird, keeps finding reasons to be around U Hyeon. one would think he the only kid in class that's gonna graduate & enroll in collage. no one else needs his guidance & help?!? only U Hyeon around???? worth of notice & his help?!? *********************************************************i like when Do Ha is assertive basically pulling U Hyeon away from that teacher & always that surprised look on the teachers face. if he wasn't weird he wouldn't react as he does - or again maybe i am reading way too much into the situation. (haven't read the Mahwah so not got the full story).***********************************************************************************************************************************************about the new dude, Do Ha's ex?!? = lover? crush? abuser?!? given the preview, the picture that's being painted aint a pretty one. Do Ha doesn't seem afraid or traumatized (as he keep initiating intimate situations with U Hyeon). & yeah if u were r*ped or sexual abused even holding hands would be hard, here he even initiated a kiss. that's why i wished Do Ha opened to U Hyeon about it, not as a boy friend but as best friend. it's better then he find out from the perpetrator - no?!? *******************************************************************************************************************************************side note: So Ri is so much chaos lol. but love her & i love Tae Min too, his upbeat hyper personality is a balm to my soul.

so in this ep (unlike the previous one) the teacher was normal. so maybe it was just there - still U Hyeon needs to learn to keep his distance, as he himself point out he can't pursue this as it would make trouble for the teacher & him in the long run. on the other hand the heart wants what it wants.********************************************************************************************************************************************still happy Do Ha keeping him on a short leash lol also he knows how to tease him & keep him coming back & given the preview i am guessing U Hyeon isn't his 1st crush. wonder what that is all about. also as U Hyeon & Do Ha bff's how come U Hyeon didn't know about Do Ha's past relationships. or maybe i am just assuming bbf's=childhood freinds.****************************************************************************************************************************************love the friend group, they all so much spice to each scene they r in & they liven things up. much need fun IMO

well this was a breath of fresh air, i just came off another K-BL & the acting there left much to be desired (from one of the actors) still it left me with a bitter taste. so seeing such young actors (dude playing Do Ha looks like a child) doing such a good job from the start, was made me exhale in satisfaction. cause i know i am in for a treat. *******************************************************************************************************************************************from the opening u know that Do Ha got eyes for U Hyeon, who is busy mooning over his teacher. really well acted. can't wait for how this develops. ******************************************************************************************************************************************side note: IMO Park Tae Min the best looking character here, in other words eye candy lol

cute ending & am happy that by the end Su An opened up. but must admit the highlight of this ep was Recruiter Hwang walking in on the guys. he is adorable & hope to see more of him in the future. dud playing U Jin too.(might seem like i am dissing the guy who played Su An, i aint) just pointing out my favorite's... lol
Was this review helpful to you?
since this started i think this is the 1st time i've seen Su An this animated, all cause of his senior from collage. so am guessing the problem with his ctingis bad directing. pity.

ok... just me but i was sure (given U Jin's playful personality) he would come out of the bathroom with a towel only... or maybe that was wishful thinking lol*********************************************************************************************************************************************the ending was adorable, i was worried they would get it on when drunk, as this would the 2nd time they get intimate it would come off that they need alcohol to initiate anything whish isn't good. that's why i love that they (specifically) U Jin showed his maturity. backs up his explanation from earlier where he cleared up the misunderstanding

Recruiter Hwang always walking in on them is kinda hilarious. & i really wish there wasn't such a delay in Su An's reactions. that is taking me out of the scene from frustration.

Han U Jin is good looking & a great kisser to boot - freakin hot & butterfly inducing. considering how skittish Su An's acting i am a bit surprised he leaned in for a kiss. i was sure U Jin would lead....
Was this review helpful to you?
instead of apologizing he asked him out for a drink?!? ok i guess - gotta forward the romance somehow. at least un Su An loosened up a bit.********************************************************************************************************************************************the scene where Han U Jin was giving the shoulder massage was hilarious especially when Recruiter Hwang walked in lol
