I don't think it's unrequited, but he thinks it is. I didn't think the girl was a romantic interest, but we'll see.

Well, it's a pirate site, so it's essentially taking money away from the production which will result in less productions.

Good plan. Wouldn't want to tax your brain with three sentences.

A gas line?

It's on iQIYI, which costs only a few $ per month.

You mean the guy who works at the cafe? I didn't notice a personality change - he was with a friend on the blanket - a safe place, and he was move lively because he was being tickled. Later he's moody because he's being bullied and suffering from unrequited love. He's my second favorite character after the one he's in love with.

Why does he owe anyting to Lee Jun at this point? If he tries to pursue a relationship with him, he needs to tell him, but I see no reason why he should right now, and also, we have no idea what she meant by that. I had a girlfriend where we joked about being affianced because we'd said we'd get married if we couldn't find good men. I never really thought that was something I was obligated to share with people I was dating.

Part of it is they end up playing the same couple over and over. That's one of the problems with permanent pairs - you never really recapture the magic. But look at Neo and Mark - fresh couple, searing hot. Or in Not Me, when First was paired with Gawin - you need new combinations or it gets stale.

First & Khao aren't bad, by any means, they're just a little underwhelming.

Wow. I was expecting Neo & Mark to be hot, but that was just fire all the way. Still not sure about Book & Force - Force has "it", but for some reason the pair never really combusts. To be fair, after Neo & Drake and Neo & Mark the bar was sky-high. How about Drake & Force? That would heat things up. I even liked First & Khaotung. Not that I ever don't, but they usually aren't my favorite.

I've never really felt it either. I don't think it's bad or embarassing, but I don't feel any heat.

This is so cute. These guys are not afraid to show affection - especially Yang I Hsuan. The black ribbon scene was too much - I love it. I hope they're not just teasing us with that. You just know Bu Xia would love getting spanked. I wonder if they'll ever explain the ghost thing.

I don't like fluff, and I like it. It's super-cute.

This is surprisingly good - the first season has nothing to do with this, which is a good thing. The writing is complex, the characters are realistic and varied, and I'm kind of excited about it.

I like that they're not all the usual archetypes and it isn't stuffed with cliches and tropes.

I like the guy who was trying to show everyone his muscles. So cute.

I don't find it confusing either. It was a little at first because there are so many attractive men on this, but once you realize the main couple is both in the present and in flashback it makes more sense.

Some of them is flashback, and some is in the present. For example, the tutoring scenes are in the past, and the rest is in the present.

If you mean the one that doesn't talk much, some of it is flashback - before that guy jumped off the roof.

I'm mildly cuirious to see Offroad, but otherise it looks like a cliche BL plot.

Even if there aren't cut scenes, there must certainly be written scenes that weren't included because I think you're 100% right - there is a lot that seems missing. I don't mind when a story doesn't immediately fill in the blanks and lets us find things out gradually, but to a point.

If this were real gay men they'd be f$%ing 6 times a day in a janitorial closet by now.

Speaking of double-meanings...

I totally disagree about the fiance. It's 100% clear (at least to me - I have been known to be wrong) that they do not have a romantic relationship and she's openly shipping J & J. LJ is not CJ's second choice, he's his only choice, and always has been.

You're jumping to a lot of conclusions and judgment based on a single toss-away sentence that we've received zero context for.

Where I have an issue is that while there's no context, there's also no point. It's episode four, LJ doesn't know she's CJ's fiancée, and it's too late in the story to introduce a major plot element - it might not be important, but if you have a fiancee with whom you have a real relationship, that's obviously important, and if you have one that's just a friend, the situation that led to that must be important too.

Wedding plan has the opposite problem, where it's clear from the beginning that it's a fake engagement, but it's been drawn out so long that it's almost impossible to see Lom as anything but an asshole.
