I hate toxic boyfriends — or even worse, toxic friends who want to be more — who try to defend me from anyone…
It's interesting that you found the behaviors you're foaming at the mouth against, to be "cute." Perhaps this show has something to teach you about yourself.
Nothing like that. We just have critical judgement - I enjoyed the show a lot when it started, bit it went downhill,…
To paraphrase: "I like this show because I've seen the same silly show 40 times before, so I'll like this one too. I mean, why not? And if you disagree, your comment is...'bad.'" lol
Agree, however, " CAN'T CRITICIZED the characters /actors they have very limited power, Kwriter this is how…
Either that, or "some of us" don't understand why you keep bringing out your old, incoherent English writing tactic, yet wonder why people don't know what the hell you're talking about.
What a wasted potential. At first I assumed Doha is just timid and we'll see some character development for him…
Gyeon is a mercurial Teddy Bear with an aggressive streak; not some raving, violent psycho. Your analysis of his character considers about 10% of what's going on in him.
I found the main character incredibly dull, and the story barely revealed anything about him. The audience never…
Agree with pretty much everything you wrote, and you made the points well. That said, please consider using paragraph breaks. It was a visual slog to get through your comment.
All this people with amazing personalities in the comments... Doha is a pretty guy, that tries very hard in life,…
ummm...because he has no personality, uses fake, child-like shyness/poutiness as a manipulation tactic, and at 28, has the social skills of a prepubescent girl? Oh, and then there's the fake Vestal Virgin, sex-phobic act. After knowing Gyeon for ten years, he's embarrassed to see his bare shoulder? I don't think so.
Ep. 7:Unlikely that three of Korea's tallest, hottest, most eligible men would be fighting over this boring, midget…
Either Jung Su Bin is a lousy actor, or the director messed up, or both, but Do Ha came off as a one-note, borderline intellectually disabled chap whose signature pouty face is a manipulative and tedious tactic, rather than a natural inclination. No 28-year-old professional male acts like that and gets respected. The last straw was the demure, shy Vestal Virgin act, which he maintained even when alone with Gyeon after they were regularly doing the deed. "I asked you to put on clothes even when we're home..." puh-lease. Gyeon's reply, a hearty "I refuse," was one of the show's best lines. Even worse was when, after ten years of best-friendship, DoHa acted mortified to see Gyeon's bare shoulder. Good lord. DoHa never did take his mother's wise advice to be the first to give in once in a while, to heart. He was a simpering wimp to the bitter end.
I was glad to see the coffee man fess up and be forgiven for his misdeeds, then move on.
Overall, the arc of the plot, especially in the last two episodes, felt kind of blah. I was team Gyeon from the beginning, but it seemed so logical/natural that those two should be the endgame, that when it ended up that way, and with a full episode to go, that to me the show kind of fizzled out. Where we needed some fireworks, we got one lone sparkler.
Ep. 7: Unlikely that three of Korea's tallest, hottest, most eligible men would be fighting over this boring, midget bottom. Gyeon's boyish masculinity is made all the hotter by the psychosis ever-simmering behind his puppy dog eyes. I realized during this episode that I am in love with him. Do Ha's mom: "You're gross now that you're all grown up," made all the more hilarious by the lack of any indication that she was kidding. hahahahahaha... I never expected it from this show, but the __________________ scene outside the hospital is one of the most touching I've seen in a BL. Their acting was admirably understated, which made it all the more effective. I had to reach for my roll of paper towels.
"Code Red" lol
Ep. 8:
Hmmm...kind of anticlimactic. I took episode 7's "code red" ending to mean there were fireworks ahead. Not so.
6.5/10 Kudos to Kbls for finally bringing the lip-locks we've been waiting for. Other thoughts behind the spoiler button below.
Ep. 2: Def not generally a fan of supernatural/time travel/body-switch BLs, but this one's working for me, due to the writing/acting/charm of the characterizations. Kano's reactions to the behaviors of his colleagues in the "parallel world" are amusing. The Japanese male habit of reacting to a surprise with a subdued cock of the head, followed by "hmmm?" always kills me. Even better when the surprise is particularly outrageous, and we get a shrieked "huuu-uuuh?!!!" :)
Kano's tininess next to Ogami is striking...and appealing. Gee, I wonder who the bottom will be? :)
The drunk office mates were funny. It's a pleasure to see drunkenness portrayed more realistically, as goofy loss of inhibition, rather than cliche'd sleepiness and slurring. When the one dude bent over backward near to the ground for the group selfie, I guffawed. :D
oooh...next week; An out-of-town business trip with the inevitable Onsen visit and plenty of booze...oh my. :O

Interesting...though odd.
lol
Good to know comments that disagree with your comments are "bad."
Seek therapy and shock treatments.
Spittle-spewer.
Psycho.

I agree, though. Say hi to your son for me. :D
