OK, how about this?

"THIS 25-year-old woman doesn't know the thoughts of gay closeted high school boys" ? I never said any BL has to tell MY story, as you imply I did.

One of the most verbose, pompous, supercilious comments ever left on MDL. Congratulations!

If Yamato had responded as per your BS consent rules list, we wouldn't have had the most dramatic and intense scene in this entire episode, now would we? Dramas are "dramatic," and often they are so by virtue of some challenging or outright dastardly behavior from one of the characters, aren't they? Sometimes people behave badly. Bad behavior makes for great drama. You can't handle it. STOP WATCHING.

Your comment that others have accused you of wanting signed consent contracts indicates you spend a lot of time watching shows featuring behavior of which you disapprove, and then leaving comments in which you self-righteously order writers, directors, and production companies to "stop doing this!" lol

STOP WATCHING. (you won't, though.)

lol Oh please, get over yourself. You are one of the most comically unself-aware commenters I've encountered here on MDL.

Your sexy, hot and EXTREMELY detailed description of what went down between Yamato and Kakeru shows you were absolutely GLUED to that scene, just like the rest of us humans. I bet you have rewatched it multiple times, just to get all the juicy details down pat, right?

Guess what? What you described IS what went down, and SO F***ING WHAT? It happens in real life a thousand times a day; why do you think it isn't fair game to be addressed in a series or movie? I have the answer: You are a prude and you have sexual hangups and you think you have the right to critique and censor what other people want to watch and hear.

News flash: You don't.
Other newsflash: STOP WATCHING. (but you won't. That aggressive kiss scene was hot af to you and you want to see more.)

Also: STOP WATCHING.

Oh god, another prude SJW trying to take all the fun out of everything. Guess what, Church Lady, "this shit" flies just fine with me and a few million other viewers. It's part of what happens in real life and it's fair game for a drama. You don't like it? Got your pearls all clutched and panties all twisted. STOP WATCHING.

It's always the same with you types. You watch real-life-type, messy BLs about real-life, messy romance and sex between two high school kids trying to figure it all out, and then you come here to shriek your outrage. STOP WATCHING. You're too immature and stuck in the mud of your own sexual hangups to enjoy a show like this, or most any other rom com.

Beautifully, and entertainingly stated. Bravo.

Fluff and angst and love and sex too. I like that the strong physical urges that go right along with romance at this age, are being acknowledged, though not focused on. Yamato taking the initiative was a thrilling moment. :)

The fine acting of both leads is crucial here, as is their natural chemistry, always so difficult to describe. It's just there or it isn't and in this case it IS.

I'm enjoying this a lot.

By golly, you sure told me. lol

Thanks for the heads up. I don't recall running into him before. Sometimes it can be entertaining to just keep asking stupid people why they hold this or that stupid opinion, until they run out of BS to spew and say something like "because I said so, that's why!" :)

Again, thanks for the warning.

That last paragraph is exactly as it reads. "respect it" Respect what? Respect who? How does one "respect" something they find lacking in quality? "Respect" is most often something people here pretend to do, when in fact they don't "respect" the show/actor/director/MDLer/whatever in question at all.

More breast implants than actors in this movie.
Someone should tell the FL that imitating a zombie thorazine addict is not acting.
Overall, pretty lame movie, though it never got bad enough to drop altogether.

Well, I know what you're saying and you are deeply mistaken.

"snowflake" is a big tell here. I'm smelling a right-winger. You're a stupid person, ie. "stupid" in the original meaning of the word, as "to be in a stupor." Generally uninformed and willfully ignorant.

But I'm sure you're more of an authority on addiction than the American Medical Association:
https://drugfree.org/article/is-addiction-a-disease/

Is it that you regard addiction as some sort of bad moral choice so you can look down on addicts and thus feel better about yourself up there on that self-righteous high horse?

Are you American? Korean? European?

Does "Korea care" about speeding and running red lights? If so, why do entertainers who speed or run red lights not have their careers destroyed?

Simply put, it's because the Korean press and the bloodthirsty Netizens see smoking fucking weed as a deep, MORAL failing, not just breaking the law, which is all it is. The response is WAY out of proportion to the ALLEGED crime.

And let's not pretend that the SK police, judicial branch, politicians, and the prison system don't all stand to gain great PR and get themselves in the news by harassing this excellent actor for smoking a joint. So many millions of $$$ wasted prosecuting petty crimes like pot-smoking, when that money and time should be going toward dealing with much worse problems.

Nonsensical bullshit. You haven't mentioned this "rehab centre production line" in any of your posts above. You're floundering and grasping for straws now, since your self-righteous, ignorant pose is being shown for what it is.

There have been addicts on this earth as long as there have been humans. The psychotropic effects of many plants were discovered and used many thousands of years ago. Your "rehab centres production line" BS is akin to saying hospitals rely on people with cancer and heart disease to keep their profit margins up. That's what hospitals and rehabs DO; they treat the sick. Addicts are sick. Very sick. It's just that you haven't caught up and are viewing the illness as a moral failing, rather than a mental/emotional/physical disease. You're stuck in the 1950s. Do try to keep up.

hmmm...stupidity always winds me up a bit, especially coming from self-righteous dolts such as you who write like drug-addled Hippies even though they claim not to be one.

I could use a laugh though: Please share in what way I, or this actor, are "selfish arseholes," when your reply makes clear you're the asshole here.

Incidentally, I haven't had a drink or any kind of a drug in over 23 years. What are YOU high on?

I'd like you to prove that. You're disgusting.

" There are some stats from YouTubers on it, I can't be bothered to find them." Typical of your type. We're talking about MARIJUANA, ffs! I don't care if he was using heroin, that should land him in rehab and long-term treatment, not prison. SK is insane on the drug thing.

Do we need a generation of old farts to die off so this obsession with marijuana as some great destroyer of society can finally die too?

BRAVO! And think of all the policing time and money wasted on pursuing, prosecuting and jailing people for fucking smoking marijuana. It is beyond absurd.

I don't have to "respect" stupid, backward, draconian laws, whether they're in the U.S or SK. Marijuana is a nothing-burger. If SK beheaded K-Pop stars for being gay, would you "respect" that because it's their law? Jesus.

Pretty damn good.
Could have been a lot better with some of the cheese cut out. For example, the very last scene.

Why do people in movies being chased by an automobile while on foot run in the middle of the road?
Also, Korea has long had national health insurance, yet every other Korean movie/drama features someone desperate to pay for hospital bills.

Very impressed with Kang Ha Neul's acting. Entirely convincing at both ages.
Kim Mu Yeol was damn good too. Hottest I've ever seen him in that black suit near the end.
