He was the male lead in Seasons of Blossom (which was really great, but sad).
He is dead, but the majority of the story is told as a flashback so you're able to see him alive and before he passes away. It ultimately aligns to present time though, so the last couple of episodes he's not in it (excluding as a memory or mentioned by the FL). It's a heavy show. I really loved it though (he's an incredible actor).
Broooo, we really need Seo Ji Hoon as a Main Lead T_T I think the last time I watch him as a Main Lead was drama…
but, also, yes! he needs to be ML in more dramas. I think he'll get more opportunities after Revenge of Others. His character in particular, was well liked and viral on tiktok/youtube shorts.
The cinematographic nuance of this show cannot be understated. Throughout these flashbacks, everyone looks the same. 8 years have passed, and the hairstyles, clothing, and setting haven't changed; However, the shifts within each character are massive. The subtleties of their growth and the relative stagnation around them lend to the seismic shift and absolute devastation Sou is going through with the loss of something essential to his being. I'm really in awe of this drama. My only issue is the lack of attention toward Sou's character story, as others have mentioned. I'm glad he's getting more attention now.
Honestly when i asked everyone if it was worth watching, most of them said it was the best korean BL. I accept…
Agreed. Acting was subpar (although I thought Yoo Seok (Shinwoo) did a good job), the plot was cliche and slow to move, and the chemistry was too stiff (again, I thought the actor who played Shinwoo was the only exception).
lmao same. but it's better this way imo. it'll be more meaningful if sou speak to her because he want it rather…
i agree! i definitely think its coming. It carries so much meaning for them both. When he's emotionally ready for it, on his own, I think he'll speak for her.
i just watched ep 7 with eng sub on viki and does aoba confessed to sou at the ending? because i can't believe…
yes! it was so cute. I was swooning when he grabbed her to sit back down and when he pulled her in. They're beautiful together. Can't wait to see them finally progress on that level next episode.
Oh man, I was on the EDGE OF MY SEAT holding my breath, waiting to hear his voice at the end of ep 7. I think it's beautiful that she stopped him, and it carries so much meaning, but I selfishly *really* hope she still gets to hear it at some point.
Im confused- did he just "get over" his stomach disease? The drama began with him needing specific things to eat to prevent a relapse in his symptoms but he eats whatever is cooked for him now, and even ate spicy foods at restaurants when they travelled. Just wondering if it was just a plot device to get her to experiment with cooking, or if its still actually relevant to the story.
Soooo, this asshole is just going to keep arbitrarily jumping into HTY's life for his selfish purposes over and over and im supposed to like him? No thanks. I empathized with him in the beginning but after seeing the life HTY leads, and how much he blossomed when he finally received the love he craves, i just dont GAF about SC. Hes beyond selfish even if he thinks his reasoning isnt. Im on episode 6. Hoping my view changes. Either way, i vastly prefer HTY over SC as a character.
Edit: caught up and literally no change in my thinking. HTY is by and large the most interesting character and i empathized with him from start to finish. SC wasn't just "morally grey", hes rotten.
producer Murase said "From ep 6, the spotlight will be on people who have not been portrayed much up to this point"
I was glad to see this. As beautifully written and captivating these episodes have been, I feel like Sou has been very left out and I'm dying to see more of him.
