nothing earth shattering, from the word go it was obvious to anyone with eye's that Kiyoi was as into Hira, as Hira was into him - just took him (6 ep's) idk how many yrs to finally verbalize that his "push and pull" act, wasn't him thinking "he better then..." but just not knowing how to verbalize he wanted Hira and wanted Hira to want him back, as an equal and Not hero-worship him, like he some god -not that it's that simple - these two messed in the head and need consoling - as a lot of the hate Kiyoi projected at Hira, was really directed at himself (and idk what Hira's damage is..) so this was anything but healthy. but it's all wrapped up with a confession of sorts and everyone elated - whatever... interesting watch and great acting by all - but this aint my cup of tea and Never gonna rewatch or recommendedside note - idk why Koyama got so much flack, dude was the only normal guy around and in-spite of his broken heart, he found it in himself to go med-fence's with Kiyoi on Hira's behalf. even his trying to stop Hira in the previous ep wasn't "controlling" but a last ditch effort to keep Hira. but whatever, there no point in pointing out logical actions... the end

must say i was surprised by the speed of Farm's accepting Van's suggestion, that they date. given Vans personality i doubt he can be a one man guy. like he already slipped with that random girl. this will happen again - hope for Farm's sake, that i am wrong, but sadly feel that Van isn't capable of being monogamous, not in this stage of his life. while Farm's personality is anti bed hopping, this could work if they both compromised, but then will either really be happy. *************************************regarding the main couple, J was in a serious dilemma, knowing that Jinn's father was back in the picture. but he did the smart thing, going straight to the mother & telling her - she should inform her son & not let him find out on his own. *******************also this the 1st time J's intervening on Jinn's behalf, has backfired on him. so now the main question is, why is he getting a heads-up if he isn't supposed to do anything about it - that's humanly impossible, to not try & prevent/help someone from getting hurt, when u care for them & have been forewarned.

Jinn is annoying me with the word 'hate' if he & J really hated each other, they wouldn't freakin be in the same friend group like is he a child?!??? no matter how good their friends got along - if they truly hated each other, they would either find new friends or make it clear they NEVR gonna hang as a group! i get that it will take him time to wrap his head around the idea of him & J suddenly being bf's & not be fighting like cats & dogs. but he didn't seem to blink an eye, about the premonition dreams J was having, but then being bf's in the future that was unthinkable?!? like plz. ***********************************************************also maybe i am the weird on but i wanna know how does J see Jinn when he is alone or without J in the future? he suddenly becomes a fly on the wall?? i thought he could see their future - if so he needs to be part of the future to see it - no? so some scenario's i get as he is present - but others he doesn't even come after the fact. yet he can see that future? *********************the 2nd couple r flirting hard or rather Van is, Farm is holding himself back & given Van bed-hopping approach to relationships i get why. even to me it sometimes feels like Van is playing with Farm & if anything does happen he wont have a problem belittling the whole interaction as a one off. & then Farm is left with a broken heart & maybe even a loss of a friend - as he doesn't seem like someone that could brush anything like that off & then keep being friends with Van. heck he might even distance himself from the whole friend group... so i need Van to get his act together

really had a hard time watching this ep, had to stop multiple times - cause it was so cringe & Jinn was annoying me to no end. i get he holds a grudge cause of what J did when they were kids. but they were kids(!) & considering how he approached finding out that Jinn's crush had held strong for over a decade, how could he then turn around & accuse J of joking around?!??? then why even accept his request for time?? he should've told him there was no need, for him to take time to asses his feelings, as regardless of Jinn's attraction - cause of their past of butting heads, he couldn't accept J - so J should just act as if he didn't read the diary. *****************************************************************************************************************************the 2nd couple r cute - even though they aren't actually a couple (even though u could fool me, with how they r acting towards each other) but they going with the flow & i like that considering they r good friends they just don't need grand declaration's, just let nature do what it does.

WTF is going on?!???? i am so freakin confused - r the subs wrong or what, cause the way Jeong U acted & what he said, one would assume that Han Gyeol was the one that ghosted him & not the other way around. & given Han Gyeol quite acceptance of every word Jeong U threw in his face, it would seem like Han Gyeol was the one that ghosted Jeong U. my eyes & memory r not that whacked, that i don't remember what happened in ep 2 - so what gives?!???

like WTF, as is this BL aint long & there is so much that needs to be discussed, but Jeong U acting like he didn't ghost his bf for 5 yrs & then just popped back in his life & is trying to continue their relationship, not as bf's but as buddies - which they never were. *********************************************************************************************************************************but he's acting like he is trying his best & Han Gyeol is the one trampling on his good intentions - like what the actual f*ck. i wanna slap Jeong U upside the head, like dude 1st off u start with an apology - say the words SORRY, say i am dirt for disappearing on u - anything !!! & then 2ndly explain why u disappeared - WHAT WAS THE REASON!!!! offer some type of explanation. but nope, as he disappeared he want's to reappear & Han Gyeol should accept him with open arms? when he isn't even telling Han Gyeol if he wants to continue where they left off, or he just wants to be friends. like this is f*cking frustrating!

am so confused, Jeong U chose to remain quite for 5 yrs & am 99% sure, the sec he realized that the project his company was working with was headed by Han Gyeol, he took on the job so they could work together. but the lack of communication is frustrating. Han Gyeol is justified in his anger & animosity. ************************************************************************* as him hearing Jeong U's bff telling his gf that Jeong U was dating & the rumors where just that... even though am sure it was a lie - Han Gyeol didn't think to ask & assumed wrong, but Jeong U's sudden disappearance & lack of communication cemented his conclusions. & now after 5 yrs just walking in like they were classmates & not in a relationship, anyone would be seeing red - especially if u don't come hat in hand, apologizing & explaining the ghosting.

am sure the reason Jeong U disappeared was cause of Han Gyeol's ex. idk why, but until now Jeong U didn't come off as someone that would just up a leave, if he wanted to break-up with Han Gyeol. but why he never contacted him afterwards is a mystery.

after the way the previous season ended am thankful they pretty much started from the same point. but i really wish Han Gyeol didn't lie or try & hide from Jeong U, not about his past & not about what took place with his ex. this lack of communication could cost them both. which would be a pity cause Jeong U is a good guy & Han Gyeol deserves a good guy.

didn't get why J had to rush read Jinn's diary but i guess it was so Jinn would see & then they would have that mini confession moment. which i really loved how J hugged Jinn & told him not to question him as he wasn't sure about his feelings & needed to think about it, before giving him any kind of answer. for the J we know until this moment it was very mature & thoughtful - Van was right the accident or the premonition's made J mature in a blink... *************************************************************regarding the 2nd couple i donno yet if Van too has feelings for Farm or he is just noticing what a catch he is & wondering if he could develop feelings for him & if that is something he should pursue, as it could hurt their friendship..

was right about Farm, sadly Van just playing cause he's a moron that can't see what's before his eye's lets hope going by the preview of the next ep he will figure sh*t out. also not shocked that Jinn aint over his crush & i am sure that J (even if he doesn't realize it) r both in-love but cause of how J reacted as a kid both have put up a front & keep pushing the other away in the hopes they wont realize how they truly feel. ****************************************************************************************poor Mai the odd one out, always the good friend but never to have a partner or his own.

J loves teasing & annoying Jinn, they funny together & love that their parents r friends it's give this whole BL a very cozy warm feeling. but wonder how they gonna react when their son suddenly start dating. **************************************************regarding the dreams/visions why now he suddenly getting them? cause people who what any type of ability, have it since birth. hope it is explained by the end. the fact J doesn't know how to "deal" i get it - cause it has landed on him like a ton of bricks & this has never happened to him before so he wouldn't know how to interoperate, let alone deal with it in real time. ****the 2nd couple r cute (well Farm is hot) & i feel like he already has feelings for Van, but as Van is a player that has dated only girls until now he isn't letting his guard down & keeps trying to keep things strictly platonic.

watching this 1st ep & seeing the mains butting heads, i get why everyone keeps talking about Bad Buddy. they a lighter, but same vibe version. also seems like J hasn't matured at all & he's still the little boy that loves teasing the guy he has a crush on. the fact that his younger self, rejected Jinn is neither here nor there, as they were young & at that age, that's how some kids react no matter who is trying to talk, about liking them. & even though i am calling out J i totally love him - he is like dennis the menace. *******************************************************************************************************************************also like the 2nd couple & find it ironic, that they personality wise total opposite's to each other & their bff (J & Jinn), Farm more like Jinn while Van is J lol. ******************************************************************************************************until New showed up (as Tar) i thought Farm was the best looking among the foursome (don't get me wrong, they all good looking, but he's my cup of tea) & mentioning New - dude is aging like fine wine - how can someone look even better as time goes by??????? also loved seeing baby Paul as Beam - pity he hasn't a bigger role. **************************************************btw always enjoy seeing JJ or his twin but sadly they always side character's - always the bridesmaid never the bride?!?? bummer

Alt who has a antisocial disorder is more warm & open about his feelings & thoughts, then Ian who was overly emotional in the prequal & idk what awaits in the next & last ep. but i wish he matured & stopped pushing Alt away & communicated with him - that's what adult do in relationships (or that's what adults should do).

so even though that father & son r selling Chen GuangLi's sculpture's, it's not enough & they need more money. now they wanna buy stocks & Master Lin is creating a fake company/option for them to invest in & then he is planning to make them lose big, so he can demanded Chen GuangLi as payment? there is so much unclear, that everything has become a guessing game - the plus i aint bored. but this still too short. *****************************************************************************************also given the "uncle's" order at the end, was right about him abusing Chen GuangLi sexually & then it explains why Chen GuangLi had no problem approaching Master Lin & trying to seduce him. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************as there only 2 more eps to go & they hella short, i hope this gets resolved in a satisfactory way (the start showed that Master Lin comes in time to stop Chen GuangLi's forced marriage) but letting that uncle & his son off scot free, is no type of ending - i need them to pay heavily!
