Not gonna lie, I was happier when you all were entranced by the fanservice and all you criticized were the big bad haters who sabotage Cutie Pie.Now that you're just collectively blaming Kuea for everything, I'm losing hope in humanity even more.
Edit: Sorry, I've overreacted. It doesn't seem to be as widespread as I initially thought. That said, you all have a right to think whatever you want. Even if I consider it wrong. My apologies.
Oh, no. The Economy! True villain of Cutie Pie 😱😱😱 (I don't know why this is so funny to me. I swear I'm more stable otherwise).
"But you will never succeed in doing that." (moving out of Lian's house) - Gods gracious! This rant will write itself without me even trying 🙃
Kuea looks about as much tired of this as I am. Hang in there, Nu-Kuea! Only two episodes left ✌️
And this is exactly how they've beaten him down. Poor boy, he believes he's gonna be happier not knowing anything. Not doing anything. And ideally, not feeling anything.
Okay, so I've finally cracked the code. We can only call out this BS behaviour if it's Ton, a random engineer! My bad, Hias.
Thank you for revitalizing me, Nuer the sweetheart 💜 Now I'm ready to keep fighting 🥊
Perth! I thought your bar went under with Kirin still inside!! Are we getting another music scene? 🙏🙏🙏
All three of them in one place? Wau, is this actually an episode 3 plotline and all of the stuff in-between was just Kuea's drunken nightmare?! Could we be so #blessed? ✨
Aaaw. He has a curfew! And up to 9pm, like a big boy!! So cute 🖤
Another character came back from dead! Though I didn't miss the weird secretary, to be honest.
So Perth's still snitching. Why doesn't it surprise me? Kuea was better off in England 😑
I'm pretty sure no one bothered to think how Kuea will like this "surprise".
Nuer being the only one suspicious about Lian asking them to hide it from Kuea totally checks out.
For those of you who hadn't realized it yet (if that's even possible), I'm gonna state it clearly. Yes, I'm Nuer simp 💙 No, there's no conflict of interests. This is the first time Nuer met Lian.
Have they ever met Diao before? I can't remember. They must have. Either off screen, or in one of those rare and boring engineering scenes.
Has Syn deliberately thrown himself between the random gall and Nuer just so he's the colliding with his boy? Atta, girl! Go get some. I would have done the same 😊
Nuer waiting a while until he was certain Syn wants to be kissed is how it should have been done all the time! In your face, Hia!! We love to see them green flags (here I would normally offend some foreign country by misusing their state symbol as a "green flag emoji". But I've learned windows doesn't encode those the same way as android, so just imagine one being here for me 💚)
Maybe this drama isn't so bad, after all 🥰
Not my eyes getting misty right after the first line of lyrics 🥺
Diao's leaving. So it must be 20:30.
Kondiao gets some D and now even he is perfectly fine with hiding things from Kuea. Ok, Mandee. I'll accept that sex can fix everything and everyone, in a brave new world of Cutie Pie.
This song was kinda weak imho. But I'll admit I'm biased, since it feels written for LianKuea and I despise the pairing with burning passion. So I can't get into the song emotionally.
Come hug papa, Nu-Kuea! 🧸
He doesn't need to, Kuea. He knows exactly where you are, all the time. Cute, right? 🖤
[rant warning (like this whole comment isn't one big rant) ] I can already see some of you complaining that Kuea yet again deceived Lian. So to put it into perspective: Lian is still spying on Kuea. He could have confronted him in a bar. Or at home. But he doesn't. Because he likes to have the upper hand. He knows exactly where Kuea is, what he does there, and if he wanted to, he would have prevented Kirin from performing. Kuea is being lied to and manipulated by everyone who should be protecting him (his parents, Lian, even Perth's character). He doesn't trust them, because they aren't worthy of his trust. And not telling your kidnapper you were singing in a bar is a way less grave lie than said kidnapper not telling you he basically owns you. [end of rant]
I might have been too harsh on you, Diao. You are at least considering telling Kuea you saw Lian. Let's hope Hia Yi won't come in and ruin it all.
Why does Diao think everyone has this super valid reasons why they are hiding stuff from Nu-Kuea? First Kuea's parents, and now Lian. You're suppossed to be on your friend's side, Kon Diao! Screw everyone else's reasons, your best friend is being messed with!
Hia! Hia Yi! Did you really have to? 😭
No, you don't, Diao! You're an adult. You can talk to your friend even after "curfew". Especially about something this important!
? ???? What was that "you'll become a dog" BS?! Am I on crack or what? And I know what you're thinking, Yi! Stop thinking it.
We know, Kuea. You will break off the engagement. Third times's the charm, right?
What? Why? How? Explain this to me like I'm 10-12 years old child. Because I don't get it.
I have no words for the end of part 3. Let's see how they will try to excuse this mess.
Oh. So no explanation. Other than "we don't tell you bad things so you can be happy in your ignorance" , and "Hia's gonna magically fix the Economy by taking control over everything we own" (temporarily, of course). So glad it all makes sense now!! 🙃
Drown him in the pool, Nu-Kuea! You can still run away with Kon Diao 😭😭😭
It's a very basic birthday wish, that's what it is. Something a doll would say, if I may be so candid.
No pressure, young master Kuea. But since you've already been forced to live with our son, may we interest you in binding yourself to him legally, too? It's not like you have a choice either way 🖤
Diao is so handsome in that suit! 💙
Too late, Diao. You won't get bonus points from me for it now.
I would have really liked to hear this bulletproof reasons. In detail.
Go bankrupt yourself, Mandee. I could blame the writer(s) for this shameless victim-blaming. But in the end, you're the one who brought it to life. On a screen, in front of millions of viewers. It's your fault.
"Do you feel guilty?" ARE. YOU. FREAKING. INSANE?! I'm sinking my ship. No one deserves Kuea. Let him go back to London, find a therapist, and make a better life for himself. You people are manipulative a-holes.
Aaaaah! I do not have hope that he rejected him for self-oriented reasons. But still. In your face, Hia! That's what you get for all the emotional blackmail and manipulation! 💚
I should probably stop before it gets "fixed" again. But I rarely do what's good for me. So back to the episode.
First time I looked for a post credits scene in CP. It was a mistake. And disturbing. Wouldn't recommend.
I truly wish this drama would end with Kuea getting to stand on his own. But most likely, this is just a penultimate episode drama before a "happy" ending with make-up sex. Never, ever again will I think it can't get worse. I'm sure CP will manage to surprise me next week, too.
The "You're the magic in my life" song is beautiful, but I don't need to hear it multiple times per episode! Maybe it's just a budget issue, but couldn't they afford 2/3 more tracks?
I love the plushie!! Would have loved any big, cute plushie, no matter who gave it to me 💜 So why would it be bad for Jao to like it?
The feels with Sky/Jao 🥺 You don't get flags greener than that 🇲🇴 (sorry to whatever country I misused)
Jao teasing Sky is not nice. And pretty OOC. I don't get it 😕
I actually like the Kong/Toh subplot. It's pretty funny and cute! (Also slightly creepy how much Kong is obsessed, but not enough to be full on stalkerish. More than Toh started with, though.)
It's nice that Som tried to help (she was pretty direct about it), but I get what Kong's saying, too. Toh should tell him himself if he doesn't want Tong to go with them. And I don't know if that's a translation error, but "Does that have anything to do with you?" isn't nearly as rude as what Som says imo.
So it was only about a car ride? A weird hill to put your foot down on, but whatever.
Oh, buurn, Nuea 🤣
Ngl, they are pretty rude to Kong. Not that I think he's an angel, but the writers didn't show us him doing anything bad so far.
I wanted to say those gifts are becoming way too creepy now. Well...
Now Kong is just a cartoonish villain. And into Nuea. Boring.
Calling him out is fine. Not very mature the way they did it, but I wouldn't expect mature either way 😁
I disagree. Kong the character is a great actor.
Weird confrontation. Just.. Weird.
Kong/Toh subplot utterly ruined. Aah.
I like how Toh can acknowledge Kong might be a better photographer than him (without being fatalistic). I halfway expected them to pull the 'Kong cheated/stole Toh's picture' card.
Are they at Toh's place? Uh-oh.
[After the end of part 2/4] I have literally no idea where they're going with it. Part of me thinks it should be fine based on what we've seen so far. But I wouldn't blame Nuea if it wasn't fine.
You're good, Toh! I wouldn't be able to make that up right on the spot. Well acted.
I let my guard down too early. Also, I call BS. No way the tangerines wouldn't be rotten by now, even if sealed. Or the crab.
Ok, I thought they were doing great with addressing the whole hoarding situation. Up until they turned it into "Nuea's insecure" problem. I get what they tried to say with it, but it's not the right time, nor believable for Nuea to be this insecure. Especially now.
"I'm just an ordinary person" - Cue Wayo from 2moons singing "Ordinary Person"!!! You would win me right then and there 💙
"Like a star" being a second great song they keep repeating. Honestly, if they knew the music situation will be this dire, they should have started a GoFundMe. I would donate.
Ok. I might make a separate comment about my opinion regarding Toh's hoarding. But in short, I don't think it's as trivial as Nuea claims.
No! Don't bring Jao into this. It's unnecessary and weird.
As I've said. Completely unnecessary. Hope Jao at least showed it to Sky first.
Nope, he didn't. At least he did it afterwards.
Hahaha, friends for pay 🤣
And more public declarations! We love those. /s
I already have "You're the magic in my life" memorized. No need to give me both the sound AND subtitles. Maybe switching it up for just one at a time would make it look fresh.
I hope Toh's father is actually strict. Not like Nuea's.
Overall, a pretty good episode. A lot has happened, but not that much angst.
I heard most of MoDC, which I would have to emotionally prepare for.
And I don't really like police/mafia/investigation plots, so that one's just not appealing to me (same with Manner of Death, Not Me...). I will eventually watch it, since I consider it an obligatory BL to get a bigger picture of the ecosystem (similar to how I watched Sotus just because it's so known). But I have to be in a mood for it first 💜
See? H3 "supremacy" is the number one thing putting me off the series. It was recommended to me by someone who loves their angsty messes, so I'm cautiously pessimistic about my enjoyment of it.
Warning: This is big. So feel free to tl;dr.I told myself no more longer posts on the merits of the show. And…
You should!!! Same with Teddy bear (which I got spoiled on KP page for a change). And La Cuisine. Tuxedo. Basically everything I'm behind on compared to you.
You dropped it?! 😱C'mon, mimi! It's only two more episodes and there's bound to be more fanservice in each…
Yeah. At first I expected a coherent subplot out of it, but well... Now I wish they would just forget about it, because the canon explanation is most likely gonna be unimpressive
I still haven't even started HIStory. I know they aren't connected to each other, but the completionist in me needs to go through all of them, starting with H1. And I just can't get into it right now.
That's not very nice of you! 😨
Edit: Sorry, I've overreacted. It doesn't seem to be as widespread as I initially thought. That said, you all have a right to think whatever you want. Even if I consider it wrong. My apologies.
You might literally die 😨
Oh, no. The Economy! True villain of Cutie Pie 😱😱😱 (I don't know why this is so funny to me. I swear I'm more stable otherwise).
"But you will never succeed in doing that." (moving out of Lian's house) - Gods gracious! This rant will write itself without me even trying 🙃

Alternatively, drink a glass of wine for every "Like a star" use.

Everyone loves H3, but I'm just not vibing with it 😔 (both the premise and visuals)
One for the show we are in, one for its source material, and one for all the other shows.
Before then, I would appreciate to preface every one with explanation what those spoilers relate to 💜
I'm conflicted 🖤
