Since here you are replying to me again, I suppose you, too, need to "go outside and interact with people," right?
Praise whoever you want, follow who you want. Yes, the reason you nominated PJH for an Oscar in your "lovely" comment is that you are biased and your bias affected your opinion, which is, as you said, yours.
To rave over an actor in a large supporting role while failing to so much as mention YHJ who carried the movie, is absurd.
"I can also tell you have not read my comment because I said YHJ is the one getting praise and is better known in Korea." You are correct, I mistook your meaning in that regard, so my response was inaccurate. Sorry...I guess...?
Cho Yoo-hyun Nominated as Best New Actor for his work in "3670," a fantastic gay film no one seems to know about. He is exceptional in the role. He didn't win, but hell, he was up against Park Ji Hoon, so what were the chances? :D Could this be a crack in the wall of homophobia surrounding the Korean film industry? Hope so! :D

I didn't "...speak as if..." anything you wrote. My comment is not ambiguous or confusing, so I've no idea why you're "confused."
What is the "knet side?" The knet side of what? Are you saying PJH is "better known" in Korea than YHJ, who is a famous, veteran actor with a film resume a mile long? I would dispute that.
Nevertheless, you nominated PJH, whose time on screen is far less than that of YHJ's, and whose character and acting take a supporting role to YHJ, given the way this film tells its story, for a freaking Oscar. The film is far more about the village and the village chief than it is about the the prince. Yet, PJH gets your Oscar nom, while your OP doesn't even mention YHJ, who as I wrote, is the emotional heart of this story.
I did not say you were the "...only one praising his performance." Stop making things up. Of course, YHJ is going to say glowing things about his costar; that's how PR and film promotion work. Frankly, I can think of a few other young actors who could have played the prince, and the film would have worked just as well. I say that as a big fan of PJH. I wrote in my reply to you that he is "a great actor." Good grief. What more do you want?
It's hilarious that you describe your own comment as "lovely." It's mega-hilarious that you feel my brief comment, which is more clarifying than critical, "ruined" your already-posted comment before it. Your comment is what it is. People can have opinions about it, but the only one who can "ruin" it is you, by editing it in some way.
Finally, are you the president of the MDL PJH Fan Club?
Wonder if we will ... As actor it seems Jed CHung is quite at peace with playing very intimate scenes but it's…
Well...couple #2 already showed in an earlier episode an enthusiastic willingness to give the intimacy the dedication it deserves. Remember when they nearly went at it when they were drunk?
Love the vibe of this show: Naughty but also sincere. However...I'm suspicious that one or the other of them, or both!!!, are not totally sincere here...that the competition is truly ongoing.
Sexy scenes. First, the Taiwanese got me all worked up with "Wishing On the Shooting Stars," and now the Japanese are following up with more of the same on the same day. :P
Truly...I was in awe.The actors were so uninhibited and committed to their characters that there was zero of the…
I agree with every word. Beyond the beauty of the sex scene visuals though, the length of it was wonderful, because I had the feeling it was about to end, then it kept going and I thought surely it was about to end, and then it kept going and going, and I was able to relax into it at some point, and soak it in without my subconscious holding its breath for an end.
I think my mouth was open in a silent sigh after maybe 30 seconds and stayed that way the rest of the time. Truly, I got goosebumps and teared up. Seeing that kind of a semi-explicit, yet tasteful and romantic sex scene between men, is beyond affirming to gay people and allies.
The importance of that, in the face of thousands of MDL prudes who are quick on the trigger to attack any admission of appreciation for gay sex scenes as "pervy" and "porny" and all the rest, is very important.
Sex is beautiful. Sex is an important part of life. Can someone tell me why it shouldn't be shown on-screen as often as any other universal/beautiful human experience?
I liked the ending of the episode, too. I did think for a moment, "please tell me that gorgeous sex scene is not going to be presented as being in a dream!!!" But, I don't think that's what's going on there...
That nc scene was gorgeous! For me, it's right up there with Never Forget Your Enemy. Just beautiful!
Truly...I was in awe. The actors were so uninhibited and committed to their characters that there was zero of the silly, homophobic reluctance we see so much of in far too many JP, KR, and even a few TW BLs. The scene's choreography and cinematography...just wow. Put that together with the actors' looks and vibe, and...did I say wow already? :)
I can't get on board with your NFYE comparison, though. While those scenes were also well-performed and filmed, they were about 1/6th as long and not nearly as comprehensive. This one between Jed and Chu was feature-film worthy and uninhibited.

There is no rule against that. It's true!

I already have commented on YHJ's performance.
Without them, I wouldn't have been able to see 99.9% of the Asian content I've consumed over the last seven years.

Now, this needs to start happening in Korea, the celebrity suicide capital of the world.
