I've already told myself I should put this on hold until all episodes are released. Alas, I have failed again LOL. The visuals are irresistible despite the short runtime.
This is a prime example of a simple plot executed in perfection with a charming, irresistible cast. They did amazing. The only thing I dislike about this series is its brevity. I want more fluffy episodes. Also, I'm happy they didn't dive deep into the potential scandal shiz. That reporter really had no business being so nosy. I'll surely rewatch most episodes because Na Aejoon and Choi Siyeol are such a delight when they're together.
Erm so they've changed quite a lot of the beginning of the story. Not complaining, though, the choices are understandable. Most changes seem to make the plot more realistic, albeit reasonably so (ironic, I know). The whole premise doesn't warrant "real-life logic", but the writing strategically should maintain a level of plausibility. I'm just sad that some hilarious parts from the webtoon's early chapters weren't included in the adaptation. There was not a chapter in "No Way, Vampires Don't Exist!" that I could remember that failed to make me laugh. Anyway, these are just my opinions after watching the first two episodes. So far, I'm quite satisfied with the casting and their acting. Loving how distinct each character is, and I look forward to seeing Ju Wan warm up to Dong Ha. Seon Jae is hot, just as I remember, while Gyu Min and Eun Ho are promisingly the chaotic duo.
ARGH IT'S HERE!!! I've read the manhwa/webtoon like four years ago??? I never got to finish it though since it was still ongoing at the time. I guess I'll have to pick it up again while this airs. Not gonna put much hopes or expectations on this live adaptation. All I can remember is that the story's pretty fun and whimsical lol. I'll just enjoy it as it is.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY VERY FIRST BL ACTOR CRUSH !!! GOSH I CANNOT BELIEVE IT'S ALREADY BEEN ALMOST 4 YEARS SINCE I WATCHED YOU MAKE ME DANCE. Tae Min will always hold a space in my BL loving heart.
I do get the feeling the finale might seem rushed. But then I recall all the obstacles we watched Wu Suo Wei and Chi Cheng surpass. Throughout 23 episodes, there were a lot of internal conflicts that came and went. The ending may mar how much I love this series thus far, but I doubt I'll hate it altogether. The sepanx isn't too strong for me on this one. I guess it's the thought that almost every single episode is SO REWATCHABLE that I can easily go back to whichever I feel I need for the day. Truly, I'm grateful for the memories and lessons I gained as I ventured into life with WSW and CC. I will surely miss the feeling of having watched it all the first time.
Everything about Episode 18 felt so... human. Watching the scenes unfold had me feeling both alive and dead at the same time. The writing, the direction, the acting, and every little detail have built up the one sequence to signify a major turning point. I may have prepared myself so much that I did not break down during the breakup scene. My eyes only swelled when Suo Wei cried. Zi Yu's acting is truly compelling. Much more so has Tian Xu Ning magnificently portrayed Chi Cheng. My love for this series cannot grow any stronger.
I honestly couldn't care less about the misunderstandings between WSW and CC. I have watched enough of the same plot, and this conflict is only bound to be resolved through healthy, open, and truthful communication. What I cannot accept right now is the inevitable. I knew it was coming. But no matter how much I prepare, I just can't hold my ground and stay strong. Even just the mention of "mom" has me shedding a tear or two. Mrs. Wu did not even make an appearance in Episode 16, but she was the only one I wanted to see. I know it's gonna hurt Da Qiong more than it could hurt me. Yet I cannot help but feel more disappointed in him. Even with Chi Cheng prompting him to spend time with his mom, Suo Wei only acted on his advances. Is it too much to ask for him to have a single whole day spent with the sole blood family he has? I won't expect the next episodes to satisfy me in this aspect. I fear Da Bao has become too self-centered to even think of his mother for a moment. I could try to understand that with all the "self-discovery" and complicated emotions he's feeling, he chooses to take his time on his own. I'm tearing up as I write this. I will only ask for one thing: for Suo Wei to enjoy a day with his mom. Eurghhhh FUCK CANCER!!!!
I am, for the nth time, missing this drama while it's still airing, especially right now. It's that rare feeling, found in only a select few series. I hold Revenged Love so dearly in my heart, knowing the finale is set to release on my birthday, it tastes bittersweet. Not a day passes by without me daydreaming of cute Wei Wei scenes, hot Chi Cheng moments, silly Xiao Shuai tactics, and misunderstood Cheng Yu schemes. I fear that my life now revolves around them, at least half of my waking time, and possibly most of the time when I sleep. Revenged Love has touched me in ways I cannot begin to describe in detail. I would have to write a book to explain everything I love about this drama. Yes, fellow BL lovers, I am down bad. I accept that I will suffer the consequences of wholeheartedly obsessing over a fictional story. My, oh my, JM... Jolly Madman.
Wang Shuo's return irks me so bad. Something about how Cheng Yu approached him feels uneasy and forced. There…
Seems plausible. I almost always forget GCY knows of WSW and YY's past relationship. Cheng Yu is acting like a catalyst to the long overdue confession of Suo Wei's real motive. I've been preparing for almost 6 weeks now, but I can't help myself from feeling the heart-wrenching tugs and "almost fessing up". Revenged Love's chokehold on me is tightening.
LITTLE JEALOUSY CRUMBS!!! I missed this beautiful snake so much. Those few seconds were enough to tell me she loves the new vivarium Suo Wei made for her. She is in her own world now. I don't think Little Jealousy could care less about her "real" mother. Caring and hardworking step mom for the win!!!
EP14 felt rushed tbh. Especially with dr.Jiang's ex part... everything happened so quickly, or idk if i was lost…
Same thoughts. I felt that we could have let Dr. Jiang's trauma arc simmer a bit more. But maybe the story only wanted it to open the door to the main ex character who's up to nothing but trouble. Cheng Yu's behavior seems so unreasonable right now. We should get answers as to why in the following episodes.
Eurgh. Episode 14 left such a foul aftertaste in my mouth. One of the very few episodes I'll skip when I rewatch…
Wang Shuo's return irks me so bad. Something about how Cheng Yu approached him feels uneasy and forced. There was absolutely NOTHING to gain when they met up with Chi Cheng. The whole scene felt so wrong. I wasn't even expecting any hints of "closure". But when they finished that uncomfy drinking sesh, the way they went on separate ways confirmed that they're letting bygones be bygones. It just doesn't make sense for any of them to try to rekindle a flame that's already long extinguished. Then again, Wang Shuo seems the type to have fun stirring up trouble. We'll see how much of a bitch this cheater can be. I don't think anything he does will make me like him. I expect his every move will just pull a nerve the wrong way.
Melancholia is slowly creeping in... I just finished EP 13 and I love how thoughtful Suo Wei is. He is the best stepmother Xiao Cubao could ever ask for.
