I know Joker's brother just means well by saying their father misses his second son. But honestly I still hate…
Nothing says “good parenting” like trashing your own kid’s efforts every step of the way and then acting shocked when he’s struggling. Publicly disowning him and belittling everything he does to improve himself on top of that lmao. It’s like the dad is actively trying to push him over the edge. Honestly, it’s brutal to watch a parent treat their child like this and call it “love.”
Maybe this is an unpopular opinion but honestly, I’m here for the slow burn. There’s something special about how this show takes its time, letting tension build naturally instead of forcing everything to move at lightning speed. The way Jack and Joker exchange those intense gazes and have those quietly charged moments, UGH I love seeing it. Their relationship feels fragile like we’re watching them break through emotional walls one careful glance at a time and I am a sucker for it.
I’ll admit though, I could definitely go for less Jack and Rose moments. Not that they don’t serve a purpose for the story, they absolutely do but the energy between Jack and Joker just feels so ADDICTIVE that I start having beef with anything that is in my way of getting it ahem ahem (That is a me problem LMAO).
Oooof, never thought I’d be this hooked on a GMMTV non-BL, but this show has me in a serious chokehold! It’s insanely good and so underrated, more people seriously need to tune the fuck in
The first episode was decent. I appreciate that the show didn’t over-promise, the trailer hinted at humor and that’s exactly what we got. It’s light and easy to watch, I am not that familar with forcebook but they are cute and their silly faces did make me laugh
Hello, thank you so much too! ❤The show follows the novel very closely, and the ending is pretty much the same.…
Thank you ❤ If you go on jinhoeun's account on instagram, click on the third post - there is a comment left from the author, in the replies a fan asks about season 2 and that's when yoonsu says there is still a lot left
I absolutely love the representation of autism in this show, Mark is doing such an amazing job and I can’t get enough of him, my heart breaks when he is bullied PLEASE PROTECT HIM. Also, I have to say that this show is more gay than half of GMMTV's BLs combined LMAO IM SORRY but I’m serious, the way Saint and Shin look at each other has me convinced that some of the other BL pairings look like total amateurs by comparison. Their chemistry is so fucking good that I’m practically on the edge of my seat every time they share a scene.
Thank you for the review...and as someone who has read the novel,is the ending corresponding with the book or…
Hello, thank you so much too! ❤
The show follows the novel very closely, and the ending is pretty much the same. They included the entire book in these 8 episodes, but something exciting happened today! The main actor made a sneaky comment on Instagram when a fan asked about a second season. He said, "there is still a lot," which has everyone feeling hopeful! I’d love to see it continue because, even though I knew what to expect from the book, the ending still left me feeling a bit empty. I miss them already.
That would honestly be such a bad move. They’ve already invested a ton of money into this drama. Refilming it…
He does warm up eventually, so maybe give it a few more episodes and it'll click for you too. Personally, I could feel the chemistry right from episode 1 when Lan Wangji grabbed Wei Wuxian's hand and they locked eyes. That moment had all the tension. But for some people, the romantic vibe doesn't really hit until later on ☺

The untamed is a masterclass in subtle romance, especially considering the restrictions it had to work around. In the early episodes, you don’t get the in-your-face, obvious romance you might expect from a typical love story. Instead, the show builds up the relationship between Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji slowly, through subtle looks, unspoken moments, and deeper, symbolic actions. It's more about their emotional bond than anything explicit, but once you start noticing the details, it becomes impossible to miss.
It couldn’t openly portray their love as romantic in a conventional way, but it’s all there if you know what to look for. The ancient Chinese symbolism used throughout the series is loaded with meaning, there are classic references to love and devotion in Chinese culture too.
It’s not going to scream “romance” at you, but it trusts you to pick up on the subtleties. If you're paying attention, you’ll see how every interaction, even the smallest gestures, speaks volumes. If someone doesn’t catch that vibe, it’s probably because the show’s style is too low-key for them, so maybe it's just not for you or perhaps you need more episodes to fully get into it
me here waiting for the drama since DAY 1 and i still didnt have the time to watch the press conference and you…
Oh, sweetheart, if queer content is showing up on your social media, it's not some random cosmic event. It's not like your timeline was suddenly hijacked by the gay agenda. Algorithms feed you what you've been peeking at so if your page is full of queer dramas... well let’s just say you've been curious for a while. Your search history has spoken, darling.
Now, as for your attempt at a “roast”, you really thought wishing dad's were gay was the killer line? Babe homophobia isn’t the drag you think it is. What’s next, you gonna insult people for liking chocolate because you're stuck on vanilla? And FYI, insults like yours only show you're so triggered that your brain checked out the moment you tried to argue. If the best you’ve got is this level of aggression maybe save it for someone who's on your emotional wavelength or better yet, sit down and breathe. You're gonna need it when queer dramas inevitably take over your feed again. 😘
The backlash against queer Korean dramas, especially now with a full-length, 50-minute serie airing, says so much about the insecurities of those who oppose it.
Why? Because they’re scared. If they were truly secure in their "beliefs" they wouldn't care what shows are gaining popularity, but the fact that they’re so vocal about tearing this down exposes their fear. They know a queer drama has the potential to take over, to become mainstream, to shift cultural narratives, and to show that love stories, no matter the gender, resonate with viewers.
They try to undermine it, boycott it, and spread hate, but their efforts just prove one thing: they know the impact these shows can have. They're scared because they know that with every new queer drama that airs, the walls around their rigid worldview are crumbling. Representation is powerful. People are beginning to see that queer love stories are just as worthy, and the more the audience embraces it, the less space there is for the hate these critics are clinging to.
Sad life for them lmao. Point and laugh, they are pitful ya'll
I'm finding he's trying too hard to be indifferent, if that makes any sense. I'm not drawn to him, he's just boring…
From what I’ve heard, that’s how his character is in the novel, though I haven’t read it myself, so I can’t say for sure. But I totally understand what you mean, everyone has different perspectives. Maybe he’ll grow on you later. 🌸😊
Yes! He is climbing up the ranks of my favourite (Red flag - Black flag) LIST -- he just may take the lead at…
He’s definitely climbing up my list too! 😄 I’m such a sucker for villain main leads, they’re my absolute favorite to watch. Their darkness is just so intriguing! 😈💫
Murong Jinghe as a male lead is such a refreshing twist on the usual villain archetype. He doesn’t go for the over-the-top intensity we’re used to seeing, instead he’s all calm, quiet menace. The way he acts with this almost bored indifference makes him even more intriguing. It’s like he’s ten steps ahead of everyone else, and nothing phases him. That low, quiet voice just adds to the vibe, he doesn’t need to shout to command the room. It’s a subtle but powerful approach, and it’s making him stand out from the typical ML's I have seen.
It’s honestly baffling that some people still feel entitled to bring their outdated, homophobic views into a queer space, as if their ignorance holds any weight. It’s 2024, and the only thing we’re trying to gatekeep is hate. Queer shows are all about embracing love, authenticity, and the beautiful spectrum of human experience, so trying to insert negativity into that mix is not just disrespectful; it’s downright pathetic.
These homophobic comments are a reflection of a fragile mindset that can't handle the existence of identities outside their narrow worldview. Instead of spreading hate, how about they channel that energy into learning something new or, I don’t know, just minding their own business? Progress thrives on diversity, and it’s pretty clear that inclusivity is here to stay. So, if you can’t vibe with love and acceptance, maybe it’s time to reevaluate your life choices and step aside while the rest of us celebrate the GAYS. Your ignorance isn’t welcome here!

On that note, I found out the story is based off the author's real life and now I'm sad lmao. I wonder if he ever got his only wish♡
