It has it's flaws (and the number of players is only the tiniest one 😅), but I still had a lot of fun watching it. It was cute, funny and I especially loved the second couple.
I'm not particularly fond of any of these characters, but I thought it was an interesting topic with a lot of possibilities to explore human nature in that regard. Stories don't have to be black and white for me, I enjoy morally grey and flawed characters and for the most part, I think this show handled it well.
Hagiwara/Kaori's story felt real and human, their breakup scene was well executed although a tiny bit too "easy". Like, I imagine there would be a lot more hurt and heartbreak in that moment, even though both of them realise it's the right thing to break up. But I liked that she made him spell it out that it was over, even though both knew at that point.
Looking at Sei/Kazuaki... I don't know what the hell happened there, because their story sort of derailed. It just screamed Wattpad fiction and it was so far fetched, it almost ruined everything else for me. Such a shame, because most of the show seemed so realistic to me.
BUT up until that Sei/Kazuaki story dump in the last episode, I enjoyed the show. Especially the acting of Muto Jun and Matsumoto Hiroki stood out to me.
I won't rewatch, but I think I'll read more comments on here and keep thinking about it for a little while longer to dissect it more. But in my head, Sei/Kazuaki's backstory already got erased; it just doesn't make sense to me.
I'm not sure if this was intentional, but it was one of the biggest mistakes with expectations of my life. From…
Agreed! I can't believe this is tagged as a comedy movie on Netflix. It's a really good movie, but I started watching because I wanted something lighthearted and this was definitely not it 😅
it obviously wasn't rushed and it DID fit in, it was Haeron healing...did you expect him to not heal or something?
no need to get defensive lol
To me it felt rushed, because one minute Haoren shows up with a bloody knife after having stabbed someone and the next minute they're enjoying a fun day like it had no effect on them whatsoever. And with the time jump, we lost a lot of insight into Haorens life after parting ways with Chihiro. I'm not saying we needed to see the trial and his time in prison in detail or something... It just felt different compared to the slower pace of the previous episodes.
I had no expectations on whether Haoren would heal or not, because I didn't know if we'd get a happy ending. I'm happy he did and I'm happy with how everything turned out, I just think the last episode had a different vibe than the other episodes. Not because it was a more positive one, but just with HOW it was written and how the story was told.
OBVIOUSLY this is my personal opinion and you're welcome to disagree.
I love this show so much 😭❤️ tbh the last episode was a bit disappointing, because it felt rushed and somehow didn't really fit in with the rest of the episodes. However, this show still made the list of my all time favourite BLs
Edit to explain a bit more: I think in ep 7 and 8 we get more and bigger time jumps compared to previous episodes. We're missing bigger parts of what's happening, while the previous episodes felt more like watching everything that's going on, even the little things. It's not like we're missing important information to understand the plot, I just mean it feels like different storytelling compared to the rest of the show.
The english speaking is so cringe but funny to watch 😆
I sometimes have to mute it, because I can't bear to listen and then I feel guilty immediately 😭 English isn't my native language either and I probably don't sound any better, so why am I judging 🤣
The plot reminds me of You Are Mine, but I'm guessing this one is gonna be spicier and, judging from the ep 2 preview, more toxic. The first episode was meh, I hope it gets better in the next one.
I had a hard time ignoring the fact that none of them look like high school students, but somehow I still love this drama and I've rewatched it two times already.
I think they are, because the time on Great's watch moved on from 11:04 to 11:05 which is past the time both their…
I watched Inception years ago so I only vaguely remember, but I get what you mean. Great turned himself in, though, and him and Tyme are talking about it on the boat, so I think he's awaiting trial and there will be consequences for him.
But how they found Tyme in time, I don't know... I honestly forgot about that, haha. I agree that part does seem a bit too easy and it's not properly explained
I wasn't expecting much as the synopsis sounds like any other BL and the cover photo on Gagaoolala doesn't look that great, but it was a nice surprise. The setting was unusual compared to other BLs, which I really liked, and overall it's a cute and easy watch. Nothing too memorable, but enjoyable nonetheless.
For all the people who are complaining about that Great and Tyme are alive and too well at the end: are you sure…
I think they are, because the time on Great's watch moved on from 11:04 to 11:05 which is past the time both their four minutes would've been up. Or maybe they're just both in the afterlife together 🤔
Totally agree with you. It was a bit hard to follow but at the end somewhat made sense. But who is this lukwa?…
As I understood it, Lukwa was just a random person he briefly met at the art gallery in real life and the memory of it was just woven into his alternate reality while he was dying. And I guess the other lady was the creator of the art installation. To me, she looked like she knew both Great and Lukwa would experience those 4 minutes, but it doesn't get explained further so I just like to believe she experienced the 4 minutes herself and there isn't more to it 😂 Otherwise I don't get it either, haha.
And yes, the NC scenes were amazingly done! Although that's one part where I was a bit disappointed with Bible's performance, because his face looked a bit empty-ish. But I get it, it must be hard to film scenes like that, so I'm not complaining either! :D
I have to admit tho, I didn't even realise it was the KinnPorsche OST, even though I watched KinnPorsche twice 😂
Great drama. I loved it, although I do not like the point they kept on making that everyone who commits suicide…
I see where you're coming from and I'm a 100 % against the belief that people who commit suicide go to hell. But I think it's an important part of the story for different reasons:
1. The premise wouldn't work as well otherwise. Why would a grim reaper care if a person kills themself? It only matters because hell is full which causes problems for Jumadeung and the grim reapers as "employees" have to deal with it. 2. A lot of people hold the belief that suicide is a sin and the punishment is eternity in hell. So, it's a concept people are familiar with and it makes it easier to grasp, I think. 3. It's a point of conflict between Koo Ryeon and Mr Park, because they both have vastly opposing views on suicide and it makes for an interesting discussion that could be thought provoking for viewers: Are people who commit suicide just weak an deserving of hell or are they lost souls who desperately seek help and can't find it?
That's kinda how I see it. But as far as I remember (I've watched it ages ago) Koo Ryeon is the only character to really question the whole going to hell thing and if it wasn't for her, I probably would've felt the same that it's icky.
They both just moved on from each other. Ba-Mhee got back with Tae and Judy just... didn't care? Idk. I feel like…
I actually liked Ba-Mhee and Tae's storyline and I haven't seen the trailer beforehand, but yeah I guess if you were hoping for a GL couple it was just bait unfortunately :(
