You've already gone through so much at such a young age. I'm glad you left that toxic company, and you're so brave for standing up for yourself. Your perseverance encourages me to want to support you on your upcoming projects. Of course, I am already in LOVE with Wu Suo Wei in Revenged Love. You are doing great, Yu!!!
Not me forgetting this is Chinese, and the censorship is still as brutal as it can ever be. I understand a lot of us, who have already fallen in love with this series, are anxious about the possibility of the government shutting this down. The fact that the final episode will air on my birthday makes me think this would be the best gift WHEN all episodes are released. I will be as optimistic as possible, no IFs. Let us avoid contributing to the buzz that may ultimately prevent Revenged Love from serving us a lovable story twice a week for the next 10 weeks. Gatekeep this gem (just until it fully airs)!!!
I'm too emotional for this. Sending hugs *with consent* to all my co-BL fans. Let us manifest the successful airing of Revenged Love. WE WILL NOT LET THIS GEM GO TO WASTE!!!
I'm crying. I tried so hard not to start this before all the episodes are released. BUT THE FINALE IS SET TO AIR ON MY BIRTHDAY. I have failed miserably. Watched all four episodes in one sitting. I am now too excited for Monday to come. So far, so good. I love Chi Cheng and Suo Wei's dynamic. Suo Wei being a tryhard at keeping his heterosexuality safe is hilarious. I love effortless comedic cinema. I'm pretty sure Episode 5 will show Wei finally realizing he has feelings for Cheng. BTW. Suo Wei's self-awareness? "This is a psychological issue. It can't be cured by injections or medicine." ATE THAT UP. I love to see a character who's in tune with their mind and body. Now, go, Cheng's Da Bai. Recuperate. Meditate. REFLECT. Then come back to your daddy.

While I'm still waiting for an update on my submission to add Kwan Geon-hee's profile as a cast member, let me take this chance to promote this great actor. His IG: @kgeoon.h

It's disheartening to read some of the comments on here about Jiwon. Yes, this may be a matter of bias and my genuine fondness for this character, but can we all try to understand that he's trying to navigate unfamiliar emotions and settings? I know we're entitled to our opinions. There's nothing wrong with saying you dislike a person for how they're acting. But, I encourage you to take a second, or maybe even just a minute, to see yourself in Jiwon's shoes. He was an Olympic gymnast. Fame naturally came his way and then faded when he retired. You may think he would have been used to the masses' attention through years of being a star athlete, but no, he only coped. Episode 7 promises to enlighten us more on Jiwon's thought process and how it came to be. So, let's practice compassion, even for a fictional character. The world can be too cruel, especially on various online platforms. Let us not contribute to that. Be like Yang Eun Woo! This man had the best reaction to Jungwoo's sudden coming out. Acceptance, no questions asked.
Is no one noticing those girls took pictures of them in the cinema?
I only noticed after my 3rd rewatch omg. They weren't even hiding wow. Guess this is a "hint" of the inevitable online buzz about to deliver us angst in episode 7.
Ok, so I don’t know if I should be writing this in the comments or the discussion section but I figured I would…
Okay, I read the whole thing because I felt that we may have the same concerns. First of all, you almost lost me at "...have Seongwu who isn’t pushing himself towards him." You can romanize the "top's" name as Jungwoo. We do not know of a Seongwu in this series. But, no worries, I still understood most parts of this lengthy comment. I somewhat know why you had whiplash when you tried to grasp why Jiwon was being inconsistent. It could be because of a mistranslation. Jiwon didn't say he wants their relationship to be public. He is scared of what that exposure can do to Jungwoo's career. The scene where they went to the photography club office is when Jiwon understood why Jungwoo would want to publicize their love, BUT he did not agree to it. I believe we'll dive deeper into why this is how Jiwon thinks in episode 7. We just have to try to be at least half as understanding as Jungwoo. An overthinker can be a really tough nut to crack open.
Don't worry. I don't know how the webtoon goes, but it's abundantly clear that the pair will end up together.…
I am, in fact, part of that signification proportion of the BL viewing population who says, "Ah, yes, angst. It makes my tummy and heart ache but I still love. Canon. A must-have."
I find myself dreading the arrival of the final episodes. If we are served with anything BUT an ending Jiwon and Jungwoo deserve, you'll see me puking my guts out. IF episode 8 proves itself to be botched and unspeakably horrendous, far from how the webtoon closed its first season, I will tell myself that Ball Boy Tactics only had FIVE episodes. It's all fluff and sugar-rush-inducing until they decide to manufacture drama to try and spice things up. I love all things spicy, but I always need something sweet afterwards. This forest ranger is weak against unreasonably high levels of angst with little to no payoff. I will bawl my eyes out for hours on end.
Uh, yeah, that was just my pessimism getting the better of me. The optimistic side of me says, "Jiwon and Jungwoo will be happily loving each other until the end. PERIOD."
This show is groundbreaking in so many ways: the real kisses, the prolonged intimacy, and above all, when Jeong…
Here's to blindly hoping for those gears to STOP. I will not tolerate lazy writing for this amazing cast. But, if what we see in the last two episodes is indeed the machinery at its peak, gosh, I'll have to keep my eyes on the visuals and just forget about the plot. LOL.
I REALLY hope they stick to the manhwa. Even though it’s ongoing (on Lezhin anyway). Either way, I love these…
Manifesting we get that good, happy ending. As it is written, so it shall be done! Jiwon and Jungwoo deserve all the happiness in the world. WE deserve to see them with smiles from ear to ear up to the last second of the finale. I agree with you on your expected ending. That's what would make this whole series a 10/10 for me. God forbid an easily-attached avid K-BL watcher wishes for a satisfying last episode. I've already rewatched all the released episodes at least THRICE. A botched ending will only make me stop at, maybe, episode 5--where it's all just fluff and bliss. Let me enjoy a happiness I may or may not experience in this lifetime.
They're so cute istg awe so much affection, also---HUGS!! I love cuddly couples sm it feels so warm just watching…
I've watched this time and again. This has become too familiar. But I still hope for the best. Their relationship shall become stronger. Jiwon and Jungwoo forever!!!
Here are my honest, unhinged thoughts on episodes 5 and 6:
Episode 5 is the PERFECT sugary sweet fluff you'd want to watch when you need a pick-me-up. I absolutely love every frame from the passionate kisses to the cute, subtle glances. To tell you that I got a sugar rush while watching is an understatement. I felt a gush of energy flow through my veins. MY HANDS WERE FLAILING. I could barely hold in the giddies, and my flabbers were truly gasted. When Jiwon said he wanted time to "think," I already knew the main conflict from a hundred courts away. Argh. I just hate how devastatingly real the cancel culture is in SK. Jiwon's concern is valid, and he's so considerate and thoughtful for that. Given the fact that the stakes aren't as high for him as it is for a rising basketball star, this retired Olympic gymnast knows how the buzz can hurt even the most nonchalant of athletes.
On Episode 6, Jiwon's choice to keep his relationship with Jungwoo a secret reinforced that issue. I felt Jungwoo's frustration. This green forest knows only of a love that must be made known to others. He evidently struggles with keeping his passionate feelings in the dark. Jungwoo loves so openly, I just know he'll burst, especially when he tries so hard to keep it all bottled up. Jiwon spacing out, thinking of all the ways his newfound relationship can go awry, made me think "ì •ì‹ ì°¨ë ¤!" out loud. Uri aegi is having trouble staying in the present. He fears the future too much. I am already preparing myself for some angst coming up in the final two episodes. Yeoleobun... how do you think this will end? Will they stick to the manhwa?
I LOVE how Kwon Jungwoo demonstrated ALL five love languages in one episode. This green forest is growing out of control. As a forest ranger, I shall make it my life mission to protect Jungwoo and Jiwon at all costs. Nothing shall come between this lovely couple! Anyone who dares shall go through me first. FIGHT ME!!!
Let's all show the cast our love and appreciation for their work!
