cute ending & all, but i have yet to understand what grudge that Sigma dude had against Akin. why just cause he kept winning the people's choice awards, so he wanted to get rid of him so his actors could win?!? i guess he that type of petty lol ****************************************************************************************************************************************************Akin was such a tragic character - when he told Jin he was tired of crying, i genuinely agreed aloud with that sentiment, there wasn't an ep where something didn't happen & he cried even when he wasn't sad, but cause his role asked for it. it was getting ridiculous... so am happy my 1st assumption (that this gonna turn into a tragedy) was wrong & Akin got a happy ending *************************************************************************************************************************************************on a whole, wont say i was hooked or fell in-love with it or the main character's (even though warmed up to Akin ). ironically (or not) i do like Johnny & wish there was more of him; a redemption arc, a love story. but seeing as baby Naru was cozying up tp him, i pass - know he (or the actor playing Naru is 18) still hard pass. ***************************************************************also by the end i was curious about Jade & would've liked to see more of him. but it is what it is - wont be holding my breath for a 2nd season lol. this was fine for a 1 off.

what does that old fart from Sigma have against Akin? is it cause he declined signing with them at the start (when Jin did)? or is it cause Jin again abandoned everything, to be with Akin?!??? either way the dude bored with life - why he come pay Akin's grandma respects, if he gonna turn around & sh*t on her grandson?!?? *************************************************************& sorry but doesn't her work automatically go to next of kin? & even if it didn't - she left it to him in her letter - which is for all purpose's a will of sorts - no?!??? ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but as per usual every ep something happens to Akin, this time not just losing his grandma - but then the sh*t Sigma pulled at the end. given what happened in the previous ep, i thought there wouldn't be any more drama in the 11th ep - but we talking Akin after all - dude fresh out of luck

yeah, sorry not buying this crappy ep's conclusion - also am getting really tired of watching both mains Never communicating. like WTF is their damage. all that weeping & walking around like the living dead, cause they so heart broken. when they could just talk & break their heads together, about how to deal with the situation. ironic but Jade the only one with a working brain.****************************************************************************************************************************************having said all this, i don't buy that ending. sorry but the dude got the OG pictures - all he has to do is open a new account & publish ALL the pictures, with the whole story - including Sigma & then they all cooked. ******************************************also after how long does Jin decide to come clean, about him being in the blurry picture??? & no backlash from Akin's fan-base?!? that the dude kept quite while the whole while Akin's name was being dragged in the mud, losing jobs etc... & just a short interview & everything is fixed? bish plz *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also idk why Akin had to offer 'one last night' when he came to break things off with Jin OMG that was cringe & didn't fit the mood at all. same with him suddenly popping up with the ring in the end - like r u kidding me?!? these two need to stop with the grand romantic gestures, what they need - is to sit down & talk! ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************watching i am confused as to what exactly the BL's fandom found so addictive. this kind of a mess -

again with the mislead - oh well thankful that Johnny didn't do anything to Akin, well other then f*cking with him (thankfully not in the biblical sense of the word lol). & even though i should be thankful that Jin didn't give up but confronted Johnny to get to the truth. i didn't like that he waiting until Akin contacted him, then just stood mute waiting for Akin to make the 1st move. as if he didn't realize that Akin was blind-drunk & probably didn't remember what happened. *****************************so personally loved that Akin return the neckless & was ready to break things off without an explanation. it was about time Jin moved his ass & was proactive in that relationship. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but one problem, ends & the next begins.. who the frack was the dude all covered up watching the play? he stuck out like a sore thumb. so he a stalker? that is crazy about Akin... that's why he stole his water bottle?!? **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: am glad Johnny didn't turn out to be a grapist cause i kinda like him. & every time i see the angel wings pop up on Jin's back i think they should be a horn & a tail. cause sorry he more a devil then angel

know am the only one, but i am so bothered by the roles they supposedly playing in the series (as in the drama's they r in, in the BL) it's like focus on the main actors, but ignore the illogic in what they supposed to be acting in. if that makes sense. i.e - the sensei Akin's playing (in the new drama they r in) died at the start of the drama (a ep or so back), but both he & Jin r in te same costume?!? i need sh*t to make sense, even if it's a drama that i wont see & i don't even know the plot off. ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************must say if this drama shows u anything, other then what goes on in actors lives & the "backstage" of how the industry works, it also shows how reporters, manager's & fans can make or break a "star". ironically there is so much that hasn't been shown (so far) so much more shady sh*t that goes on in this industry. little wonder there so many actors that suffer from mental break downs & some that go so far as ending it all - it's sad & infuriating. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************again am feeling like this a tragic BL where Akin is being setup for a major fall... idk what everyone was so hyped about - watching how a character is being readied for the sacrifice?!? cause sorry, but Jin is acting too clueless & oblivious about everything as if Akin needs to handhold & guide him through his feelings & reasonings. when it is clear to the eye, that everyone is dumping on Akin nonstop (idk how he hasn't suffered from a break-down until now). now the person that acts like he cares, is also acting like it is all up to Akin, to always be the one to make the 1st move, to clear sh*t up. to do the heavy lifting... he just along for the ride?!? **************************************************************************************************find it frustrating cause his management were the ones that told him to distance himself from Akin. & yet he doesn't think to mention it or even dwells on what this means for them as a couple - how to deal with it etc... he just turns to Akin making it his problem that's holding them back.?!? genuinely feeling so bad for Akin.... he deserves someone who cares about him enough to put him 1st, someone that will not just share his burden, but lighten it & sorry not sorry Jin aint the one. not so far as i have seen. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: Jade & that freakin lighter r doing my head in, i wanna snap that shut so hard on his fingers, one gets chopped off.

everyone is salivating over the leads... just me cringing hard - idk why but i have to stop all the time, cause the 2nd hand embarrassment is just too much for me. & sorry but i don't see what got everyone in a tizzy. both leads r cute at best, but not that good looking in my eye's. ********************************************************************************************************for now still not hooked, but curious to keep watching - hope something happens to spice things up (& no, not talking about anything sexual) the plot as is, feels kinda bland...

this has been so hyped, that i have been counting the days until this got completed - so i could binge watch. after finishing the 1st ep i am confused cause this was hmmmm far from good IMO. the acting was cringe at best & even though there were moments where i laughed out loud, doubt this a comedy. ***************************************************************************also have to point out that idk what bothered me more; the huge age gap between character's here or the excess of makeup, like why they need to be so caked up?!? & the closeups just made it hard to ignore... ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also seen Smart in Don't Say No & he was cute, & good for a newbie actor as Leon, here idk what to think about his performance. & sorry but in this ep, even after that end i didn't see how we got to that point - as maybe i saw a fanboy in Jin towards Akin, but sexual chemistry nope - no sexual tension either, nowhere to be found in this ep. hope by the next ep i am hooked otherwise i might quit before i start....

seriously almost halfway though this ep & Taichi confessed to his boss, to Maya but not to Kohei, talk about pulling my hair out in frustration OMG wanted to shake the dude. what if Kohei didn't come after him? what if he didn't confess for the umpteenth time... & what does Taichi do - just sits there with that sad look... of course Kohei would apologize - he thinks ur tearing up & looking sad cause u don't know how to turn him down yet again, cause u DON'T feel the same - like duh!!! but finally he opened his mouth & confessed, a sec before end credits - aish ! *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************this was really sweet & loved a lot of the character's (heck even liked - kinda - Maya by this ep) but Taichi's inability to communicate or maybe it was pure cowardice (at this point idk) really put me through the wringer. if i was Kohei i would've punched him, not hugged him, just cause of the emotional roller coaster he needlessly put me through. **************************still really enjoyed watching this & loved both mains, even liked most of the side character's they added so much - for sure a rewatch.

idk what to say.. they parted ways?!? Taichi didn't confess?!??? ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh like WTF.... also Taichi told his friends about his new job, but not Kohei - make this make sense OMG. one more ep to go & i need these two to get their act straight! ASAP - i need a happily ever after for them. how can either end up alone or (somehow worse) be with someone else?????

the miscommunication OMG with these two... but the preview gave me hope that they will clear sh*t up & talk. maybe finally be candid about their feelings & stop with the crossed wires. ***********************************************************************the demented dwarf is just waiting for a chance to get in between them & doubt Kohei explanation & confession will change her mind or make her give-up so easily. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but have to say i approve of Taichi going his own way, cause other then the fact it was draining him working so many part-time jobs & then studying & taking down notes for Kohei. it was crazy trying to live this way. so i am glad he has finally found a path he wants to explore, the fact that he is also doing this for the person he loves is the cherry on top. but this not just a labor of love it is something that he cares about so i am happy for him. plus love his new boss.

the maniacal leprechaun is trying to sow doubt in Kohei's mind about Taichi, but what i love - Kohei is so in-love no matter what she says or how much she tries, he can't help but think about Taichi. like all the time. idk what i am enjoying more, his day-dreaming about Taichi constantly or the fact the jealous midget knows exactly where his mind is & it is like salt on her wounds...****************************************************************************************************************************************love that Taichi on his end is as infatuated - even if he has yet to admit this fact aloud, let alone confess. his every thought is Kohei, so his finding a job that is connected is such a deep thoughtful way to Kohei & his future (if he loses his hearing) makes my heart melt & weep - they so lovely. i need them to get together ASAP, cause now anything can / might tear them apart ugh... am worried

this ep was genuinely frustrating, the end made up for it a bit, but just a bit - like WTF was going on with the guys. i get Taichi running after, but never catching up to Kohei cause of the crazed leprechaun by his side - always dragging him away so he wouldn't ever be in Taichi's presence for more then a sec. **************************************************************************but what was Kohei's deal?!? i get wanting to help the deaf dwarf, but he needs to handhold her 24/7?!?? he can't have a sec to himself let alone be able to talk to anyone else cause he's tutoring her?!? really??!?? even a blind person could notice her animosity & open rudeness towards Taichi. asking her WTF or telling her to stop & give him a sec, to connect with Taichi (the person he has a crush on) is unthinkable?!?? like what the actual f*ck was going on with the guys..... ugh - freakin frustrating! *******************************************************************************************************************************************so glad, fate had different plans by the end, where one had to work & the other wanted to cook for his crush & then they met... had some sweet moments together before the grandfather arrived. which was still cute & fun - but then cause he asked "...wasn't it great to have good friends..." again sent the pair spinning in opposite directions, aish **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: i Don't want Yasu to end up with that meant little b*tch, cause she's mean & she gonna use him & toss him aside the 1st chance she gets. cause she doesn't like people without disabilities. hope i am wrong & they just connected here & there wont be more of them, going forwards cause no one deserves a headache like her - sorry not sorry!

had a feeling this b*tch was gonna be trouble, from the 1st sec we saw her in the previous ep. the way she looked at Taichi when she realized he was the one her senior kept talking about - had a bad feeling. but reserved my judgment until she went off at the end of this ep. **************************************************************************************************************she is nothing like Kohei, she is mean & bitter - get that it might be a safety mechanism, where before ur get judged & treated badly, u do it to others so u will always have the upper hand. but this also means u r fake. u sit quietly judging people that r going out of their way, to be kind & considerate. that's gross. *********************************************************************** & she for sure understood what Kohei meant - that the person he had fallen for was Taichi & not the girl he spent the night chatting-up. that's why she attacked Taichi, she wants to push him away & make sure he never gets close to Kohei. cause she wants Kohei. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Kohei is only seeing her as an innocent junior, that needs his help & guidance, someone he has to mentor & help cause she sufferers from a similar handicap. he has yet to notice she a manipulative b*tch. hope he does so before Taichi gets too hurt, cause he might know how to standup for his friends & the people he cares for, but he isn't capable of doing the same for himself. OMG but i wanted to drop kick that midget

personally i love how their budding relationship is moving at a slow pace. yeah hot & heavy is great, but that can also burn out fast. but a slow paced romance, where ur using more of ur brains & not just ur heart or worse ur libido to do the "thinking" means the foundation of that relationship is stronger. but i guess we needed the drama of a girl, coming into the picture & forcing Taichi to move or lose his man... oh well

so was Taichi's boss (at the part-time job) right, did Kohei push him away, cause he wanted to give Taichi space to be with Miho?!? or was it cause he fell for him & didn't want to watch Taichi with Miho, so he ghosted him to save himself the heartache?!? either way, guess it's irrelevant as by the end Taichi knows that the person Kohei is infatuated with is himself. also loved that even if Taichi isn't sure or his feelings, he knows he doesn't want to stop being Kohei's friend. this already a positive turn of events in my books. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: i really love Taichi's grandfather, not just for taking him in when his parents abandoned him. but he can't cook & yet he cares so much for his grandson & shows his love via food - ironic, as he can't cook lol
