You forgot to add "Nuer's tiddies" to the PROS!!!!There, now it's balanced again 💙
We have to count our blessings, BPG!
And at the very least, his titties were safe. No one was coerced into worshiping them 💙
Jay's titties weren't present in the show, so I can't give CP bonus points just for the potential. If I went there, it would have scored way higher than I'm comfortable with.
I agree! it was so random to me.. him running away. WHY!?For the life of me I will never understand these people…
For me, it wasn't really about not believing him (though that could have been a part of it, too). I think they main reason why Ro A rejected him is not that selfish.
Up until now, Ji Woo presented himself not only as straight, but totally smitten by Yu Na. He cared about her more than he cared about himself. So when she confessed to him, that should have been the highlight of his life. My understanding is, even if Ro A believed Ji Woo might like him, he was pretty sure Ji Woo will be better off dating Yu Na. If he could love them both, then clearly Yu Na is the safer, better option for Ji Woo. Ji Woo would forget about Ro A eventually. The show didn't portray much of homophobia, but still hinted at it in a way that makes me think the characters are aware of it.
Of course, that could be just another excuse. But I think it's worth taking it into consideration and it was actually my first thought when Ro A rejected him.
Stop laughing, Baka! You will be in relationship soon enough 🤡
That's a pretty disappointing resolution to the stalker subplot to be honest. I mean, it makes sense. But I don't care much, since it's just some random guy.
Just how dense is this ML?
Me do not like this development. Me do not like at all.
[Episode 6]
Nope. Don't go there. That's some LBC conflict right there.
Oh. That's totally out of blue, but not surprising. Let's see how it goes.
🎵 So go ahead and break my heart again... 🎵
This is actually a pretty good development. And by pretty good, I mean devastating 💜
Not digging the time-skip. Boring.
Too realistic. I want my fairly-tale fluff in BL ðŸ˜
Posting this here as well because it seems that I accidentally upset BB fans, which was not my intention and I…
We don't know what was happening with Gia. From the looks of it, it was pretty important. Even if it's probably just gonna be unnecessary drama.
Khluen didn't really tell Daonuea that he needs to play second fiddle to Gia. He said that Gia is an important part of his life, and they will all have to adjust if Khluen and Dao start dating.
Also, I don't feel like Khluen owes Dao anything or manipulates him. Dao confessed to Khluen years ago and almost immediately ran away (from what we've seen so far). After he came back, he didn't tell Khluen he's still interested in him (quite the opposite, actually). Khluen hinted multiple times that he's interested in Daonuea, but he never said it out loud clearly before. And he didn't explained the Gia situation until recently, too (still could use some work).
So, in the end. Would I want to date someone like Khluen? Prolly not, unless he has some major character development. Do I still like him as a character? Yes. He's pretty interesting and I can understand where he's coming from. Do I think he's treating Daonuea well? Not really. At tbe very least, he's sending mixed messages. Do I think Dao was too emotional last episode and blames Khluen for things Dao himself is at least partially responsible for? Yes. He ran away. After he came back, he said he's over Khluen. Then he said he wants to get over Khluen. After that, he needed some time (not really, he just wanted to leave Khluen hanging). Then he comes to Khluen's house out of blue and starts demanding stuff from Khluen.
I can see it from both perspectives and they are both wrong in my opinion. Khluen can't say things clearly and commit to save his life, so he's doing things half-assedly. Dao is drowning in his emotions and does things reactively, instead of thinking it through. Both are hurting each other and people around them. Both need to grow up in my opinion. I'm just more on Khluen's side now, because he's getting more heat and Dao's done more stupid stuff last episode.
"Fantastic dom/sub dynamics and a little bit of kink on the part of Hia Lian and Kuea. "Girl, where?! At my place,…
Usi seems generally more interested in age and private lives of another posters than they are in the show itself. This isn't nowhere near the worst ageist thing they've said.
Let's start with the "stalker" side of things. This one doesn't bother me as much, to be honest. We never see Toh actually trailing Nuea, following them home/outside of school, not trying to insert himself into Nuea's life by "accident" or control what Nuea does (and with whom). He doesn't get possessive over Nuea to the level he would hurt someone. It's true that Toh was looking for chances to watch Nuea from afar (e.g. going to their cafeteria), but he never intentionally interacted with Nuea during that time. Is it cringey? Yes. Uncomfortable? Detto. But it's also fairly realistic and (for me), acceptable in the context the show puts it into. Toh's keeping his distance and letting Nuea live his life. The biggest problem I see with it is the amount of photos Toh makes and souvenirs he takes. Which leads us to our second point.
Toh's hoarding habits. The notion of collecting keepsakes to remember things by is something I do from time to time, and consider it safe in moderation. Toh does not operate in moderation. I can see why he would keep photos (especially since it's his hobby), but so much? Making a shrine out of them?! That's an unhealthy obsession. Collecting slips of paper and small things some might consider trash is fine in my opinion, but actual trash? Nope. That soda can crossed the line. The paint can is peculiar, to say the least, but it's one of the better ones. Food and drinks of any kind are a big no-no for me. It spills, smells, gets rotten, attracts ants... even if it's sealed. There's an enormous amount of it and it keeps growing.
Things the show did well in this regard is shoving it in such a big scope no one should think it's standard. Especially with the pig's head. It's also shown Toh has little to no rational control over it (e.g. wanting to go back to the waterfall to collect water, or wanting to count one date as multiple just to get more out of it). We also get a really good explanation for why Toh does it, which shows us it's fixable for him (I think that usually, reasons for hoarding aren't that clear irl). But the show also did a lot wrong with it.
Firstly, even if Toh's friends seem to discourage him from taking those things, they make fun of it, help him with it and even egg him on. They also haven't intervened in any meaningful way so far. Secondly, I believe the show's taking it too lightly. They compare it to Jao's much smaller, manageable collection as if they were essentially the same. They made Nuea act like it doesn't matter. He even called it trivial. I'm glad he's able to love Toh despite it, but the way the whole thing's portrayed doesn't sit well with me. Also, during the confession scene, they diverted attention away from Toh's problem towards Nuea's insecurities, mudding things even further. Last thing they did horribly (imo) is letting Nuea ask Toh: "Can we throw them away?" and the scene moving past it without any apparent hiccups. If you did that to a real person, I would expect a lot more irrational defense and some level of aggression or mental breakdown. Toh basically explained it away as if it's nothing.
What I wish they would have done back then? They should have admitted Toh has a problem. Either let Nuea distance from Toh in a way that would make Toh start addressing it accordingly, or let Nuea help Toh get through it. They should have consulted a physician. Because in the stage Toh is at, no amount of friendly communication or arbitrary rules would help.
In the end, SCOY is a show I don't like to analyze/judge because of its OTT and cringey theme which makes me give them a pass for things I would otherwise take more seriously. I don't think most people would take either of those issues seriously in such context. But it's still something I want to point out, especially since the show's trying to become more serious and it's being portrayed in less melodramatic vibe.
I mean, they aren't too far away from that? Just way less boning and way more feelz.
I wouldn't hold your breath. Hasn't he sold his soul to our CP overlords already?
And at the very least, his titties were safe. No one was coerced into worshiping them 💙

There, now it's balanced again 💙
I'm still listening to Kirin's version of "Just Being Friendly" on repeat. No, you can't stop me.
"The right script writer could have made this great."
Or just, any half-decent script writer would have made it watchable. They could have sacrificed few expensive cars and one NC scene for it.
Khluen didn't really tell Daonuea that he needs to play second fiddle to Gia. He said that Gia is an important part of his life, and they will all have to adjust if Khluen and Dao start dating.

I think they just wanted to add extra drama into it by bringing Gia up in episode 6. And that Daonuea overreacted at that time.
But in general, he should make his relationship with Gia more clear.
