really wish Haruka would stop with the over reaction & the shouting, especially in public setting it's freakin embarrassing. but i get this is how the FL needs to be portrayed in the J-drama 'scene' - hard to sit through personally. ******************************& not trying to talk sh*t, but with all the hoopla about make-up & being a plain Jane. the make-up is so natural i don't even notice a difference between when Haruka has got make-up on & when she hasn't. the fact her hair not in the usual ponytail also isn't that much of an improvement IMO, cause her hair is kinda flat. & get her styling is also what Japanese women wear, but it's kinda frumpy to me. i prefer her when she is her normal self. she looks like a collage student too busy to care about what she is wearing & if her hair is done, cause she is busy either studying or working at her part time job - u know like a normal, average students the world around.

this was cute on a whole, but also a bit cliché in parts & the part where Haruka goes to remind Keisuke he made a date with her on her B-day for drinks, was so cringe - it pained me physically watching that whole scene OMG - the 2nd hand embarrassment was too much for me, i had to distance myself from the screen. i just wanted her to stop OMO. ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but on a whole i really like Haruka's visuals (& personality) she is pretty bare faced without make-up all she needs to do is smile & she lights up, plus she is really sweet with a sunny personality. so i don't get the need to be ultra girly. not all women r into make-up, dresses & high-heels, yet they don't lack a romantic life let alone other female friends. cause ur personality is what counts, at the end of the day. but then i guess Haruka wouldn't seek-out Hikaru & then no drama. so it is what it is.

really liked this, even though there were some really cringe moments that i really wanted over fast & Hioki is a bit too clumsy, but at least he doesn't over react or act, so it wasn't unbearable. plus i think he is beautiful & adorable (IMO he's one of the better looking in this BL, yeah the rest not bad looking either - but he is at the top for me), also like that he isn't like everyone else & marches to his own beat... didn't like the "mean girls" with their petty remarks, that just hurt an innocent. but other then the typical use of females as antagonist's that r mean, just for the sake of being mean - this was fun. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************it's also obvious that Watarai has a crush on Hioki & he was the one that either suggested Hioki's name to join his friend group or he has confided in his friends & they invited Hioki, cause they trying to help their friend get Hioki. either way, it's cute seeing Watarai not being able to keep his eyes off Hioki & until the end Hioki didn't really notice something was off. can't wait for more.

so Joe woke-up just to die? or rather murder his wife (WTF, why?!?) & then get double crossed by Aim (who wasn't dead???) the double crosses, backstabbing, lying etc.. made my head spin. & yet i wasn't riveted to my seat. the only reason the café owner gave Sun a 2nd chance & recruited him to the organization, was cause he knew Sun & his sisters. basically he felt sorry for him, cause as it was made clear when they spoke. Sun didn't have any info to give him, that the "Uncle" didn't already have & he wasn't anymore special that anyone else in his gang. so that basically leaves the fact that the Uncle knew him & had gotten to like him & his sisters. *****************************************************************************************************************btw the "teacher" on Joe's side, readily believed Ji Hun?!? when he knew he had already tried to backstab Joe??? why take his word this time around??? but there a ton of 'why' - like why Song Min never go to his mother?!... oh well it is what it is, as this the end & idk when the next season will air. not that i will be holding my breath. this was amateur hr throughout, yeah there were cute moments cause of Tim, Tien & Kawin but they couldn't carry this BL. neither could the mains - so idk what to say. this was cute & a 1 off. ********************************************************************************************************************side note: the actor that played Song Min looked really familiar but i donno what i've seen him in before & as the bio over here doesn't have any additional info, guess will keep wondering...

the 1st scene where i was impressed by the acting, was when Sun found out that Song Min & his father were behind his father's death. that confrontation; Mei trying to stop her brother - was good, very good in comparison to what we have gotten until now from all involved - specifically Sun & Song Min. the rest was the usual sh*t show - sorry not sorry it is what it is. Sun gave Song Min a tracker so he could keep tabs on him if he got kidnapped again, but nobody thought to check his car?!? or even the motorbike??? *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************& don't get why Ji Hun would offer Snap a offer to work in their outfit, when the lobbyist seem to be more powerful. unless he doesn't knw that Snap is a plant & really belongs to the lobbyist group. but have to say, as much as i dislike Ji Hun, dude is an evil genius. he got Joe's brains that's for sure, well even though they not blood-related he a carbon copy of Joe. & if anything i think Joe was be proud of him, if he wasn't trying to rob Joe of his "throne". ironically Jun Ho turned out to be the most loyal, he really loves Joe & sees him as his father & he was the one treated the worse. the irony doesn't escape me - sadly he will never get the recognition or love he is seeking, guess he knows this & that's why he put the gun un Joe's hand saying he would rather die by his hands for what he has done. even though i don't see what he has done. the fact Ji Hun has clued him in after the fact doesn't make him an accomplice. as i am 110% sure that if Joe was conscious he would inform him of everything the sec he found out. so i didn't get what part. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: we almost at the end & i don't buy the romance. the fact they have no reservations in kissing doesn't a romance make. Sun & Song Min come off more like buddies that make out & f*ck once in a blue moon. & that's why i was really happy we didn't get more then a kiss in this ep. sorry but it makes me uncomfortable & it feels like it's forced on the actors to get intimate "cause this a BL". yeah pass -

as much as i dislike Song Min, i am happy he f*cked over Joe. just a pity Song Min is gonna pay the price right with him. even though given how passive he is, let alone he doesn't suspect Ji Hun.... heck he doesn't notice him or Jun Ho - to him more then adopted siblings, they like the countless lackeys his father has hanging around him - they not worth notice, unless he's forced to interact with them cause of an order. so i guess he wouldn't even dream that anyone serving his father, would backstab him. plus he's to busy throwing himself a pity party from the start of this... **************************************************************idk what i want to happen next, as there only 2 more ep's left, guess Song Min's getting kidnaped - Sun's gonna come to the rescue (which given his fighting skills, is kind off a bad joke), idk if Joe is gonna wake-up or pass on. the lobbyist's don't seem like good guys, so idk if they will stop whatever Ji Hun is planning. but i also don't get why Ji Hun thinks he can fill the shoes of Joe. but will have to wait & see -

the acting here is really taking me out... it's like a student play - all amateur's, that's really hard to take serious. again the highlight was the GL. they for sure didn't waste anytime, but at least it felt organic & added a little sweetness to this ep. cause have to say the mains interaction is buddies at most, i don't get the lover or the BF vibe from them. ******************************& really would love if Song Min would stop going around with the injured look - dude weeping at the drop of a hat. he keeps saying 'sorry' a sec after Sun leaves & yet he hasn't found a way to warn Sun that his father isn't to be trusted. in the previous ep he was planning to run back to Korea, yet he is still in Thailand & isn't actively doing anything to get away from his father or inform Sun. so what is the point of us seeing him cry all the time & act like he is walking around with an open wound? cause i don't see any pity for him. if anything he is kinda annoying me. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************personally if i was Sun & i didn't want the life my father lead, especially now that i avenged him - why open a gym in the same place? why not move to another town/ city. i think i would do that for my sister - want that more then her going back to school given what she went through. & his gang could come with (even though am 100% sure Snap or however he is called, is a rat that is there just to collect info & forward it to the lobbyist). but there a lot that doesn't make logic in this BL. like Jack dreaming of walking in his fathers foot steps & yet he just got one henchman?!? he was asking to get his ass handed to him.

before anything, am ecstatic that Aim got double crossed... wish i could throw a party that the f*cker got his, OMG i detested him. now if Ji Hun is taken care of too - i would be a happy camper...lol - idk why i hate these two the most in this BL, as there a ton of bad-guys. but these two just rubbed me the wrong way, from the sec i 1st laid eyes on them. guess u can say the actors r very talented, to make me detest the character's they portrayed well. *************************************************************& have to say (this more of a side note) Song Min's father doesn't look Korean in the least, couldn't they have made the mother Korean?!? cause Joe looks Thai - & i wish i would understand what his grand plan is, the fact he is playing almost everyone is kinda obvious - but to what end?!? is anyone - or rather is Song Min safe? or is he getting played too?!? & i assumed his mother was dead - but seeing the pic's on Jun Ho's phone, am guessing that isn't the case & she is alive & well in Thailand. if that is the case, why hasn't her son gone to visit?!? they estranged? he thinks she is dead??? wish there was more info on these basic fats. *****************************************************************************************************************************************btw this ep was whack - well it kinda usually is (in some parts), but the fact that Sun is like a headless chicken, just going with the flow & digging his grave with every move is 'face palm' inducing. will say this again (& even his sister said more or less the same thing) what happens to her, when something happens to him?!?? Jack for sure doesn't care about either of them. he is using Sun cause he knows he got friends that will happily follow him into hell & he knows Sun doesn't want to run the arear that was under their fathers control - which will make Jack top-boss. from Mei he can't really gain anything, as she has nothing to offer him, so why would he bother with her? idk why Sun can't stop, but now it's just too late. *********************************maybe it was already too late the sec he agreed to meet with Jeo. or maybe it was when he decide he would find out who murdered his father & avenge him, when he got released. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw am guessing cause of the intimate scene, that this was the cause for everyone to lose their sh*t & call this a masterpiece. yeah there was chemistry between the mains, but will admit that i found Cherries stopping by Mei's room with flowers every day sweeter & more entertaining to watch (& i aint into GL's). i donno, maybe cause of the huge secret hanging above the mains, i just felt uncomfortable that & the fact that they were being surveilled.... ************************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************additional side note: Snap is freakin suspect, now the only question i have - does Kawin know? is he an accomplice?!? cause Snap is suspect as f*ck & the fact no one notice is absurd to me. also wondering if he is working for Joe & if not who is the "lobbyist". & for some reason i wouldn't be shocked if the café owner is the main bad-guy. thought the dude was suspect from the 1st sec he came on screen.

Mei is such a sweet girl around anyone but her only family - her brother, Sun. there is a part of me that just wants to shake her, her choices landed her in hell & she knows her brother didn't fair any better. he was in a hell of his own. at least what she did was her choice (to run away from home) the fact it turned out bad was bad luck, fate or a stupid choice in an untrustworthy person. not the case with Sun, yeah he drew a knife, but he didn't tell Kong to get in between, but he paid the price for that death - he was framed & then had to spend 3 yrs fighting to save his ass - quite literally. *******************************************& yet in the midst of everything the 1st thing he did when he got out, was to look for her & take her out of that hell hole - & he has been taking care of her from that moment (whos paying her hospital bills?!?) he comes to check up on her & everything with a smile, love & understanding. but she is with that constant petulant attitude & it's kinda getting tiresome to keep giving her the benefit of the doubt. she's not a child any more & needs to stop taking Sun love & care for granted. ********************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************regarding Song Min& his father, he is his father's only son & then of course he is gonna inherit whatever his father builds. given this commonsensical fact idk why Jun Ho or Ji Hun think there is any chance for them - they r dogs Joe has raised nothing more nothing less, for now they r useful but sooner or later he might decide they need to go & he wont think twice before ordering their deaths like he is doing with Sun & Jack. he wants to build an empire in Thailand where ever other gang is under him & he can only trust the Koreans (cause they his people) that's why he has so many of them in this gang. Madam Yao got too greedy thinking she could get a share of the pie, she happily backstabbed Songphum, now it's her turn.***********************************btw if Madam Yao was the one to order Songphum murder then why was Song Min there?!? am sure she didn't inform Joe she was taking care of the obstacle & he sent his son to witness that she was gonna keep her word - or is that it?!?

The Journey to Killing You Episode 5

well this was a freakin depressing ep & it just flashed by. idk who i feel sadder for Kataoka, who was turned into an orphan cause his father sacrificed himself for Kirii Seizo & then no matter what he did for his boss & his family, he got backstabbed cause the son of Kirii Seizo is a b*tch ass cry baby, that was jealous Kataoka out shinned him. or Odajima who always ended up losing the people he loved - freakin depressing **************************************************************************************& it's not that i was deluded into thinking they might get a happily ever after - the vibe here wasn't deluding in the least - & yet cause of what they found together, i hoped - that maybe they would find a way to develop their feelings & have some kind of future. but given the preview to the last ep - it's just doom & gloom ugh... hope it is a mislead.

i just keep rolling my eyes at everything, even Kawin who's attached at the hip to Snap didn't recognize him?!? lobbyist my ass - u gotta be a special kind of stupid - the whole gang (including the oldest member who is some type of coach) like not one stop to say they r going down a path that will only make their lives worse?!? ************************************************************& Song Min asking Sun what his father & Kong would like - NO wrong question. he should've told him he is the only one Mei has, so he needs to think about her & not get into sh*t that could put him back in prison or worse & then who will look out for Mei?!? not her half-older brother that's for sure. but that's asking too much of the character's in this BL. ************************also what were Song Min's father's order's?!? to get rid of both Sun & Song Min?!??? i don't get what he is trying to achieve in regards to his "sons" other then using them to feed his sadistic needs - pitting them against one another - promising the winner the position of successor. or so it seem to me.. **************************************************************************************side note: i don't see any chemistry between the mains, Song Min was warmer to Mei then he has been to Sun from the sec he "helped" him off the bridge. i get it's played off as his realization that he & his "family" is the reason for the destruction of Sun's family. but still it just feels off - like after their butting heads in the restroom (in the previous ep) Sun then forgetting everything that was said & texted Song Min to come visit his sister. like what?!? idk - **********************************************************also i don't get why Sun is happily following his older brother's lead, he acts like the boss - he want's Sun to do all the dirty work while he will reaps the rewards, which would've been whatever - if he was a different type of sibling. here as far as he is concerned cause Sun & Mei r the children of his father's other wife, they might as well be strangers to him. so idk why Sun would trust him after how he treated Mei (& given the hacker he has got money of his own - a lot of money. so why the need to stay in that house). idk - running theme in this BL for me. genuinely don't get why everyone can't stop talking about this

idk why this felt shorter then the other ep's, but this as funny - Mob is like some pervy creep spying on all the couples & character's & that laugh... lol, crazy dude. but i really wish he finally got confronted by someone he couldn't avoid, but idk if i want it to be this teenager, that is his younger brothers age. kinda gross -

i am glad i aint watching this, when it was airing cause then i doubt anyone would love my POV, as i think this is stupid - the plot is whack & the acting is meeh... like that freakin ending - u wanna tell me Sun couldn't recognize Nap - really?!??? OMG but this stoopid!!! most of the time it feels like kids playacting as adults /9 talking about Sun's "gang") & it aint that funny, if anything it's cringe. sorry but Sun is all bark & no bite. but he keeps acting the big though guy - makes me roll my eyes. i hate Aim but when he told Sun that his neighborhood granny hits harder, i laughed cause that's how Sun's hits look - weak as f*ck. ***************************************heck Song Min the crybaby, pushover that seems like he's on a verge of a breakdown (in almost every ep) fought harder then Sun - who has (supposedly) been constantly training throughout his life, this ridiculous. ****************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************ironically the only bright spot was the realization that the EMT was interested in Mei & that might develop into a GL & it's ironic cause i usually avoid GL's, as they angst filled, with too much drama for my liking. but this time with everything going on, yeah plz -

i am genuinely confused why Song Min's (sorry but Peace is a stupid name) so - am confused about the dynamic in his family. why is his father forcing him into something that doesn't fit his temperament & why he treating Song Min like he is his only child, while Jun Ho is just someone he took off the streets & trained as a loyal dog. as he treats him worse then he does Ji Hun (who has mentioned more then once, that he WAS adopted) so what gives. ********************************************************idk if there is a character i really like, there a ton of shady MOFO's like Sun's own brother (the café owner another shady MOFO), but there a ton of character's that i just detest. like Ji Hun, Song Min's father & there is a special place in hell for character's like Aim. this whole BL is kinda depressing watching all the lost hurting souls that doesn't seem like they will ever make it out of the hell hole. **********************************************************************************************************a romance in the midst of this chaos is kinda ridiculous - everything seems doomed from the start. given the situations both Sun & Song Min r in it's like the blind leading the blind...
