guess i'm the odd one out cause i didn't get it, like i got what i was seeing, it's about two people that in-spite of being in a relationship weren't verbal with their feelings(?!?) enough to keep one from going, or make the other one tell 'them' to stay(?!?)

cause leave everything aside (like the quarantine, COVID-19, work-related move, friends, vlog etc...) we talking about 2 people who have feelings for each other, but didn't communicate that importance too their partner? and that reason enough to not only break-up without a word but delete that person from ur life like they don't exist and never mattered to u?!?
one just upped and left without a word and now that he's back, she is regretting not being forthcoming about her feelings(?) and that is her wrongdoing(?!?), so she feels they equally at fault or cause she still in-love is ready to forgive and give him a second chance?!?

idk i don't get how 2 adults can be together and not communicate or know, how the other feels, without the need to freakin verbalize it! then how/why they even together in the first place?!? just cause one doesn't want to come visit u in another country or isn't offering to up-root their lives n follow u. means it's ok to end thing with a text message and cut off all contact like he did? i for sure wouldn't be waiting with open arms.

this too short IMHO to 'get' what's what and i need a bigger picture of their relationship, not so i can accuse one or the other, but understand why she feels her lack of telling him "i care, so even if i can't follow u. i will be waiting for u..." or "the fact ur moving doesn't mean we have to break-up..." idk, there is something missing - to get her still caring to the extant of rushing to the airport to look at him from afar, when he lands back in Korea, u can chalk it up to "love is blind" or "the heart wants what it wants" but then meeh . so this ok, but not blown away like other reviews i've read.

first off totally impressed with Earth, the only character's i've seen him portray r the standoffish, cold, douche-bags with a Huge chip on his shoulder, let alone the short-fuse. so seeing him act so young and carefree without me cringing that a 27yr old is "acting" the teen, was wow - guess the dude does know how to act - plus he was so freakin vulnerable and loveable in this - so unlike his usual roles, i'm a bit dumbstruck... positively

the plot all in all was short and sweet - very simple and yet i kinda didn't get Talay - idk if it was a translation glitch or what, but cause he was worried/scared to face his true feelings rejected (rather brutally) Whale - so why he going on about them both suffering and being in pain? and not that i didn't get his pain / insecurity - but that was his choice. he knew why he pushed Whale away and treated him like a pervert, then adding insult to injury ignoring him - basically pushing him away.
get why he did that, but his thought process wasn't logical - one would think Whale was the one that rejected and abandoned him... so this was so so - i for sure didn't think he deserved Whale to rush back the sec he was ready - plus he didn't indicate that he was ready for a relationship - he just wrote he waiting for his friend, so they could travel together. and that the grand romance end we get?
guess i'm the only cynic here... that thinks this a really sad ending - cause this doesn't make-up for Whale's suffering and it for sure doesn't insure he gonna get love this time around (and i aint talking the platonic kind).
so it was cute and fun up to a point and the acting was good - but one off

aish - well redundant to point out, i didn't like this - and until the half way point i was bored or rather uninterested in everything going on - the mains didn't help me like this any better. get Tozaki is the sweet imbecile in love, or rather blinded by love (and he not that unique, a lot of people men and women alike - let themselves be used, abused and taken for granted cause their emotions r involved, and they can't seem to think straight). so yeah he was sweet, but the way he let Kurata treat him - all cause he was his first love - just frustrated me. seeing how at first Kurata treated him like a one-night-stand and then a booty-call, didn't help me like either character - especially when Tozaki always welcomed him with that stupid, innocent, expectant smile, i wanted to slap some sense into him.

the point i really started liking and connecting with this movie, was when Tozaki lost it and point-blank asked Kurata what he considered him - that was a moment of growth - where Tozaki at last demanded some respect. he stopped being an enabler and forced Kurata to come clean...

the fact that little by little (throughout this movie) u get that Kurata was as infatuated with Tozaki, when they were teens - and they were each others first-love doesn't sweeten or justify Kurata treatment of Tozaki. and u didn't get any back-story as to why he was the way he was - just cause he didn't want to be "out and proud"?!? and his fits or rage where he almost raped Tozaki (twice) - cause he was jealous was ridiculous.. especially when we talking about grow-ass-men not teens with raging hormones. so enjoying or liking this is beyond me, and i didn't have any problem with their looks - but have a major problem with the character's personalities and the plot in general - this screamed more abuse then romance - so a one off

way better then the first movie

even though watching them back to back, why they even connected?!? cause the director is the same? cause one of the mains is the same actor? he for sure not the same character - so how this connect?!? just cause its about boys that fall in-love??? bit far-fetched if u ask me, and going by this logic - every other movie made by this director should be BL3, 4 ,5 etc if its about boys in-love¯\_(ツ)_/¯ weird

anyway this story was way more relatable and had more substance then the 1st one. maybe cause of the positive ending? idk this just felt more cohesive - things made sense (even though the teacher breakin-up with his gf is written in the description - cause movie wise - with the subs i saw - he broke up with a dude) this movie involved zero females, other then some teachers and nurses - basically background dressing.
and Sora was in no way, shape or form was infatuated with Aoi. if anything going by his back-story this poor kid was (in-spite of being adopted by a rich family) all alone - fending for himself trying to reunite the family he lost 10 yrs ago. was wondering if he from a rich family, why stoop to sell his body. what happened in that family that he would chose such a profession - and then the more u see, u get how sad of a life he is really living - if u could call that "living". his connection with Aoi is accidental and cause he needs help in buying his family home, he turns to Aoi - there is no love involved. yeah he jokes about "comforting" him cause of how they met, and Aoi's hysterically intimidated attitude, whenever he was around Sora. does make for great comedic material for a teen - but it doesn't amount to anything.

Aoi cause of his position as a teacher, it was logical him being that paranoid not knowing if and when Sora would use the info he had and how he would "out" him - that is a legitimate threat - he wouldn't just get kicked out of that school considering Sora a teen he could get blacklisted, so i got his fear.

but most of the character's introduced r suffering - and its like the teachers r there but not - as bullying is rampant and cause its done by the kid whose father is a big donner - its over-looked. Ichiyo who is basically an outcast in that school cause of his childhood bff Riku (who from the sec u notice him, u get he is obsessed / infatuated with Ichiyo) but like the immature moron that he is, his go to is to ostracize and alienate Ichiyo - constantly bully him - like some imbecile that hasn't matured enough so he pulling on the "girls" ponytail cause he likes her - same here.
the problem is at last Ichiyo feels he found a friend, as Sora stands-up to Riku for Ichiyo's sake - and they get along as roommates - which in turn gets Riku jealous cause he doesn't want anyone around Ichiyo . so he bullies Ichiyo into forgoing his bed and then tries to get it on with Sora, who has enough on his plate so he distances himself from both Riku and Ichiyo.

isolated, segregated Ichiyo feels the withdrawal of Sora's friendship acutely - he becomes fixated on him trying to get close - to beg for forgiveness. his desperation and naivete - plus him seeing Sora meet up with a guy and his own confused past (cause Riku and Ichiyo's friendship wasn't platonic - and as Riku is the aggressor and Ichiyo the introvert - not hard to figure out that Ichiyo might not have wanted what Riku did . and cause of that rejection Riku wouldn't let Ichiyo exist in peace. once u get this everything else kind falls into place - very sadly but a lot makes senses...) so Ichiyo who has been suffering all along and his current loss, is just the last straw - he snaps. even after his finding out that Sora sells himself - is a last ditch effort to get back the one friend he found - but Sora has his own problems to deal with and is incapable of recognizing Ichiyo cry for help. in desperation he turns to Riku - who takes him to bed and as Ichiyo doesn't want or need sex - the outcome is heartbreaking but not shocking.

the rest is Riku the spoilt brat needing someone to blame and venting his anger (of course in a perfect world he would more then just an ass-kicking for what he did. but it is what it is) - Aoi ironically after Ichiyo's suspension, find's out about Sora's back story and starts to clam-down, as he sees Sora for the hurting forsaken kid that he is. and when he gets hurt that's when Aoi's heart gets involved - the ending was positive in-spite of how Sora ends-up, cause they have each other and a hope for a future. so a way better movie then the 1st one and this for sure will rewatch

well this was different, ehm its Japanese - so obviously "different" lol... but in spite of the 'out there' description it was interesting in a sad kind of way, seemed like a story of 3 teen "couples" that were somehow connected... it wasn't so much about self-harm and suicide per say. the mains r just odd-balls that seem to connect, because they r odd. Rei is anti-social and the only girl that approaches him (wanting to get to know him, cause she is infatuated?) he shuts-down pretty brutally - saying things like she's ugly or he will 'kill her' (his go to sentence) if she doesn't stop pestering him... in the midst of this he notices Nana the other odd-ball in class, who has scars on her wrists from self harm, while she is collecting the corpse of a bee from the trash, as she is so unlike everyone around him, his curiosity about her is quipped and he follows to see what she is doing, and there their relationship and dialog starts... bit of dark humor that even made me laugh - but in all, sweet.

then u have Jimiko and Kyapiko, who r best friends from kindergarten, one is a nerd and the other a needy promiscuous airhead. and even though u see the connection at the end - its seems more like a side story of two good friends - and how they r there for each other - Kyapiko the needy promiscuous one jumps from guy to guy dumping them before they can dump her because she was more or less deserted by her single mother, and u see how lonely she really is, and how the only one she can rely on is Jimiko her bff.

then last we have Nadeshiko who is in a one sided love with Yachiyo, she constantly keeps confessing even though he keeps shutting her down. until their story develops and u see what is going on in each's mind, and how they seem to connect..

read comments that its a "must see" won't go that far, but it isn't ridiculous, stupid or some weird - out there sh*t that u can't "get". its stories about teens, love and even death (which comes out of nowhere, and was a bit shocking - as it was so unexpected - but that's a spoiler so wont go into it)... i enjoyed this and would've liked a better ending, but it is what it is...

movie was good, the beginning - hell until he made a run for it - it was a tough watch, especially knowing he was innocent and the sh*t he had to go through. was horror inducing for me, reminded me of a few movie (The Fugitive (1993) Ready Player One (2018)).. was at the edge of my seat on a few instances, and glad everything worked out in the end.

the villain was psychotically evil, f*cker, no conscience at all - the guts to represent the person u incriminated and then add insult to injury u kill his mother, like no conscious at all. even after seeing how he was suffering in prison, really scary. and even though he was caught, the chick that was working with him is free and from what was said - if he is replaceable, she as guilty as he is and she will restart the operation and this insidious machine will be back at work. this kinda open ending is annoying.

have to say usual don't like FL's (in korean dramas, sometimes even movies) but Mr.Hairy was the bomb - no bellyaching and crying, acting cutesy and vulnerable, demanding attention and seeking help cause she a delicate flower. yeah she was an introvert, but she was strong and kick-ass and the sec she knew he was out - she was ready to help. even though cause of her being an introvert, pretty sure her contacting all the other players in the group and meeting up with everyone was emotionally grueling.. but really great watch

well this was surprisingly good. i think i love Korean movies and dramas, because it's not just face-value, but there is depth to the story.

my two cents.... U-in was pissed at his gf for persuading his father into sending him to Korea, nobody wants their partners to treat them like a child; as someone insignificant and go over their heads, it's not a good way to treat anyone in a relationship.
from the get go he was weird with his future sister-in-law. their first meet at the coffee place had a weird vibe. when u look at him. the sister was reserved but it was normal, as she was basically meeting a stranger.
maybe then he found her attractive and his subconscious chose her as a means of getting back at this gf. donno - guessing.

the older sister was leading a boring life, guess that's what routine does to a body, its depressing. the scene at the start where she is watching TV and her son is asleep with his head on her shoulder, was endearing and heartwarming. but the look on her face was "dead" and considering her son is a teen, and they usually don't like cuddling their mothers, this should've made her smile. bad indicator that the only emotion she showed was when she started interacting with U-in. he reminded her that she was alive. kind of a cliché, but loads of woman cheat / have affairs because of this reason. not saying this is ok. but this is a sad fact.

i think her ending it with U-in and then breaking up with her husband, was self flagellation / penitence cause she knows she has done wrong, so she doesn't deserve happiness or a "happy ending" that's why she broke it off... but ironically they r both on the same plane, heading to the same destination... kept open for us to make what we want with that ending...

side note didn't get why the sister broke the fish tank, they didnt f*ck ur fiancée dude.... if it was me in the heat of the moment i would be aiming at my sister - but that's me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but all in all a good movie

read commenters saying u need an open-mind or that "there aint angel or demons just humans" (well they used the word "bad-guys") and that's one way to look at this drama or life. but it would be untrue - yeah people will be people, and nobody is perfect - but being a self-centered d*ck that doesn't take other peoples feelings into consideration, is a bad-person! its that simple. so i kinda like the ending -
cause after everything that happened MAYBE at long last Hai Qing grew-up enough, to understand that he can't act the spoilt-brat for his whole life, he can't go around expecting others to take care of him and cater to his needs...
his deciding to leave and study in the US - going to his father. isn't only showing that he cares at long last for family - and the importance of that in his life. but that he needs to distance himself from the men that want to mother him - and the studying abroad bit, will also help him grow-up mentally -

if he stayed with Yan Fei, what would change? he would just substitute one babysitter for another cause Yan Fei would fit right into the role of caretaker / nanny / mother and Hai Qing will continue being the spoilt infantile baby. so the decision showed maturity on Hai Qing's part - and that is something to applaud.

Ping Jun doing the right thing was obvious - there was no way he or anyone could put up with the crap that was going on - no matter how much u love someone when u see that they keep going back to someone else that isn't u - u can't keep acting blind, deaf and dumb... and i'm glad that he did that for himself - just now hope his next partner will be worthier..

side note - read comments about Ping Jun being a better fit for Yan Fei (and if Yan Fei was a better person, i would be all for that. but he isn't - so NOPE) but everyone seems to forget how Yan Fei couldn't keep his eyes off Ping Jun at the photo-shoot or even before, when Pinky introduced her brother to her boss the first time. his wanting to tag alone to Pinky's birthday party was why? cause he sensed Hai Qing was gonna be there? plzz it was cause Ping Jun was, and he couldn't get him to come to the barbeque after the shoot. but whatever... this was a good ending for all involved if Hai Qing and Yan Fei ended up together, then i would be pissed and call this B.S. this was good.

this is a good movie if ur into watching humans be human

aish from where to start, first off haven't read the manga and after watching this, very intrigued to find out how it differs from the movie and if the ending (if it has ended in "written" form) is much more satisfying then this open ending.
secondly, read comments saying - agreeing with Otomo when he called himself self-centered - and i Don't agree - yeah there a bucket load of messed-up, complicated character's here, but he just another one on a long list. he for sure aint at the top of that list.

this whole drama is about people not being perfect in any way, shape or form... trying to succeed at love and life and basically buggering it all up - to put in mildly. if anything watching this if there is anyone that i rooted for by the end, it's Otomo - yeah he was guarded and stoic, the typical tsundere (without any background info about why he is the way he is - i can't say what is the cause for his turning out the way he did) but he for sure aint heterosexual, he either bisexual, pansexual or a deeply closeted homosexual... cause the way he noticed Imagase in their collage/university days, wasn't platonic in the least - and he was always aware of him..

Imagase "proposal" starts to break down his walls from the first encounter. and i think its more about being with a man then being with Imagase - which of course changes when Imagase keeps at it - or maybe i'm wrong, as no one would go back to the woman they r cheating with, when they know their wife has a detective tailing them - that was kind of an open invite, for the 2nd encounter to happen -
the rest is kind of a emotional roller costar, where Imagase who seems to know what he wants, can't deal with getting his wish - and keeps pushing Otomo away with words and actions... therefore the sad open ending

but this is one hell of an emotional ride where u see Otomo grow, mature into his own. and that in itself made this worthwhile - i enjoyed this even if i would've loved a happy end - but "they" kept it real and i can appreciate the reason, as in life no happy ending guarantied.

must say this felt unfinished - not cause it was lacking - but what can one except from one episode - watching this i was sure this was just made to redeem Terrance's character, who was a major douche in the drama Gameboys, and his "sorry" or apology didn't wipe out the dent made by his character.
that's why when he and Wesley hit it off, everyone watching mirrored Pearl's disgust. so here he is being humanized, so he (his character) will be worthy either of Wesley or whoever.. but i think his interaction with Achilles - or putting him off once again, for greener unknown pastures (that ironically turned out to be Wesley..) makes u wonder is this dude really someone, i should care and root for?!?

in this one episode the only one that shined for me - the one i want more off and hope he gets his place to shine is Achilles, he was sweet, vulnerable and yet strong with a huge heart that i feel has been trampled over too many times, so i for one hope he gets a part in the 2nd season or a spin-off of his own.

the more time passes the more annoyed i get cause what the actual f*ck was the point of this?!??? like tell me anyone that get's sexual assaulted & then goes back for more??? get turned on cause of some water-works & sob story, enough for them to want to repeat what they were forced into the night before - but now they hungry for it?? (cause the night before opened their apatite???) then get graped & stay the night??? to wake-up the next morning in the same house, on the same sofa he was graped on, to eat breakfast with the same person that graped him - brutally while calling him a b*tch, asking if he was enjoying it so much, that's why he was crying from the joy of it all?!?? like make this make sense????

1st off Jae Hun was owed money for his work & even if he shouldn't have reached into Jun Hyeok pocket to help himself, Jun Hyeok then demanding a BJ isn't exactly on the up & up - the sec those words came out of his mouth, Jae Hun could & should've threatened to call the cops himself, cause yeah he would be in trouble but so would Jun Hyeok. but lets go with the fact he was so terrified he would lose his only source of income & went through with it, when he got the text the next day (which was a black mail note - plain & simple) he still chose to go back - why??? Jun Hyeok assaulted him - which is a freakin crime & he for sure Jun Hyeok hold attempted robbery against Jae Hun, without getting in some hot water himself.

yet Jae Hun walks into the lions den & then even if u buy the sob story, he had so many opportunities to say no thank u & goodbye. yet he chose to sit & drink with someone he knew 1st hand got nasty when he was drunk - what???? & then for a straight man - heck i think even a gay man wouldn't be that happy to repeat what was forced on him the evening before, especially in a house where there was no where to escape. yet he wanted to comfort Jun Hyeok in-spite of what he did to him??? & not even that, he was that turned on by what he did the night before, he was hungry for it again??? & even when Jun Hyeok wanted more then his mouth, Jae Hun didn't say "stop or no" he for sure didn't fight him off, he said he hadn't ever done it before, that this would be his 1st time, that isn't a NO! - to me it seemed like he was saying, he wasn't ready or needed Jun Hyeok to take it slow. which given Jun Hyeok behavior to date, idk why Jae Hun thought he would be treated with care... i aint into victim blaming, but he kinda got what he came for - sorry not sorry & the fact he could sleep after.... in the same place/sofa/house he was assaulted in, to wake up the next morning like nothing happened, to sit civilly & eat what Jun Hyeok, even get in his car so he could drive him home - like sorry, but what the actual f*ck - this kinda reaffirms my conclusions to my assuming he wanted what he got.

idk if either is straight or gay & it really doesn't matter, cause this wasn't about sexuality. on Jun Hyeok's part his demanding a BJ or even graping Jae Hun wasn't a sexual act - it was an act of dominance, he was hurt & pissed at his wife & the pastor but couldn't hurt them. Jae Hun was someone powerless & submissive (cause of his position in life & the societal hierarchy), someone that could be used & abused without really suffering any consequence & Jun Hyeok did just that, used him to vent his rage, angry, the impotency he felt by being cheated on by the person that affirms his manliness. he used Jae Hun to get the power back.
the ending where he pleasures Jae Hun, IMO was a way to keep Jae Hun in his life - so he would keep coming back. not cause he suddenly turned gay. he just knew he couldn't keep blackmailing him about some money, not after everything he had done - which was way way worse. either way this was messed-up & it just annoyed me, cause i feel like what was done to Jae Hun - u r dealing with such heavy & sensitive subjects & making light of them or just disregarding them, cause Jun Hyeok was the receiver at the end, so they now a couple - put a stamp of happily ever after & the end - this just a different type of romance, that's messed-up...

this BL feels like the "key points" of a bigger much interesting story

that's how i felt watching this - yeah u can focus on the main couple, u can ignore all the issue & focus on their "happily ever after". me - it bothered me that Riku who is the more successful twin, in every aspect of the word is so envious of the little his brother finally had; someone (Chiaki) confessing his crush & wanting a future relationship with him. that he didn't need more then a sec to realize Chiaki had got the wrong twin & he could've corrected his mistake at the start.
but he went along with it - why??? & then avoided really talking about his twin & when Chiaki became a bit too demanding, he chose to run away & was that his sick way of being cupid?!? forcing Umi & Chiaki to come face to face in the hopes that what?!? they fall in-love? or Chiaki realizes his mistake or they part ways, as Chiaki really fell for Umi, so Umi should be the one to break his heart - that's kinda f*cked-up if u think about it.

also the back story of the brother's idk there feels like there is so much more to this story & their dynamic.... yet we get a very fuzzy snippet of the whole picture.
idk if this is adapted from a mange, novel or what... but this is worse then an open ended movie/drama, cause there at least u get a bigger picture, that helps u fill in the blanks - here nothing. meeh - the only reason i am giving this 3 is cause i liked the acting & i wasn't bored, but i am also very annoyed that this is what we got.

not great but surprisingly entertaining

tried watching this a while back (when it started airing) & my conclusion then not even 2 mins in, was that the distant half-brother needs his head bashed in - there's toxic & then there is toxic - concluded then that this not for me & dropped it, LOL.
so why did i decide today to give this a 2nd chance? bored? curious?!? either way i did give this a 2nd chance & wont lie - had to ignore the verbal & physical abuse, otherwise wouldn't have lasted the 1st ep (regardless of how short this is).

watching, in-spite of it kinda being all over the place, the overly dramatic acting & the disjointed plot - the bones were good, interesting even & if the plot had be simplified, maybe this would've turned out better then it did. but it is what it is & 1hr didn't drag on, cause there was always something going on - so wasn't bored, maybe bewildered at times dumbfounded at others & even annoyed - but entertained all the same.
the bodyguard was ridiculous & thankfully added some much needed levity to this overly dramatic plot - that some how trivialized pretty heavy subjects like sexual, physical & mental abuse... also Gu Huai Zhou's cousin was a freakin sociopath & he got to walk away after everything he did? freakin preposterous, but it just shows that when u come from money, u can get away with murder & the fact his family (specifically Gu Huai Zhou) never did anything to punish him , no matter what he did - whatever he gets up to in the future, Gu Huai Zhou will deserve.

so even though this wasn't good it was entertaining if u leave logic & common sense at the door. it was fun & as it was an open ended maybe there will be a 2nd season - i will for sure watch it just to see if the "train" will again go off the trails.

1st off idk if the editor was on crack or what, but the edits in this were all over the place & the unnecessary time jumps - all disjointed & didn't flow.... let alone the fact that the actors looked different, as if the added scenes where filmed way after this got wrapped up & then they were called back to redo scenes or film additional scene - a total mess.
but if u put all that to the side, i enjoyed this - loved Valen's bumbling wooing technic - or lack there of, cause he was new at the relationship thing... it was very real how he planned & strategized for it all to go bust & yet cause Kaitoon was as inexperienced, it turned those scenes into something pure & beautiful - also very realistic. but having said this, Valen was am immature moron that lashed out at his bf for his friends sake? like r u serious? same with his punching Sean - i don't get being this involved in ur friends affairs, he did enough with informing King about the truth, but after that he took out King's anger on Kaitoon ??? & then ordering him not to come to his sisters restaurant, knowing full well that Kaitoon as an orphan worked to support himself & wasn't a spoilt brat like him - but he didn't care. so personally, i was relieved that Kaitoon didn't accept him with open arms, cause Kaitoon deserves better & Valen needs to grow the f*ck up. so for me this was the perfect ending!

Nont who i liked, was sadly turned into a doormat of a character, only to get "released" at the end where Kaitoon realized that he was leading him on & he would/could never see him as more then a good friend. which was the best thing that could happen to a character, that couldn't find it in himself to confess, so he was just hanging on in the hopes that Kaitoon would be the one to make the 1st move. which he did & then made it clear that they could never be more then friends.

the whole King, Peat, Ice, Sean story line was complex & there wasn't enough about what went on between Peat & Sean to make me understand what went wrong there. but have to say that Peat got balls of steel; like him or not i was impressed that after getting caught, he (twice) went to see King to apologize & make a clean break of things. i don't know a lot of adults that can say "sorry, my bad" let alone admit to how wrong they were & he didn't ask for King to accept his apology, he said his peace, apologized & left. hard to dislike him - well i don't, even though he did cheat & then added insult to injury by all the lies he told.
but unlike him, i just didn't like King & Ice felt like he was too immature to know what he was getting into, when he was with King - that dynamic just felt off to me - but this feelings i am carrying with me from the 1st season about them & didn't change my mind by the end.

June - like i said in the 1st season i didn't get the need for so many character's & the screen time wasted on them, especially when the time they did get isn't enough to develop a decent plot line - so why? why not focus on one or 2 plot lines & strengthen them?? the end product wouldn't be this messy & all over the place.
& the bones of this were good & promising from the 1st season - oh well. on a whole i enjoyed this (if i disregard everything negative i mentioned above) but this a one off for me.

i get why people didn't like this, the 1st half was ok (plot wise) but after the mains "interview" it went down hill pretty fast & sorry, but the actor playing Jae Yeon can't act to save his life & what made it worse, was his mumbling his lines - like WTF?!? & whose great idea was it to style his hair like those dogs with hair over their eyes - this a new look??? so wondered, is he connected? cause everyone else did the heavy lifting, while he thought acting cute was acting? & i don't know him (haven't seen the dating reality he was in, that i know off cause i checked out his BIO) so have nothing against him - just feel like if someone else was cast in his place, this would've been better.

even though saying that, the writing took a weird turn towards the end - it was rushed & illogical (the whole stalker thing - what he just punch Geon U, not stab him?!? what the hell was the point of that plot line??) same with the attraction, cause from where i am sitting Jae Yeon had chemistry with both brother's, so why he follow through & want Jae Yeon's kiss, but not Taewoo's? cause they grew-up together?? meeh - not even gonna mention the whole scene with the father - what was that??

so the only plus is this short, so didn't waste too much time on this & other then Jae Yeon (sorry not sorry) i think everyone has potential & i hope to see them in other projects. pointless to say this a 1 off & a never again.
