I was looking forward to this show every week 2 episodes ago. How did they manage to screw up in the last 1/4 of the show?
Also, I was very uncomfortable with the front row seat to Nankrai's wet dreams? It did not serve the plot at all.
I generally really like Tontae as an actor so I was really excited he got a main role and I have been wanting to see the Hsia twins in a meatier role on my screen again since their Make Our Days Count days. So I'm glad this came about. But the show really did all three of them a disservice.
I wonder if this is a multi-series type show or something. Because in episode 1 there was definitely an implication that there is more to the story than what we saw.
I'm so glad they stopped that awful eng dub for Mr. Joe that they did in Episode 1. It was atrocious!
This show is a bit too violent for me, so it's always at the bottom of my list every week, but the cast in amazing. I've always had a huge crush on Top (Gawin) so I'm always happy to see him on screen even if its just for a split second. I am also really impressed by Tape (Sun). I wasn't sure what I thought of him at first, but he's actually pretty good. Both the Korean boys did a good job but I'm particularly impressed by Seung Ho (Jun Ho). This is the second time I've seen Aon in a negative role in the span of a couple of weeks. He plays evil really well. And really creeps me the eff out.
TBH. I'm really impressed by the whole cast of young adults. They far outshine the veterans (except for Phe - I really enjoyed him in this show)
I love that the romance is more on the backburner and as an undertone to the violent themes of the show. What romance there is, is very romeo + juliet esque.
I really dragged my feet on watching this one. And sure, it isn't perfect. But I genuinely loved it. It feels like it is set in the past, but it could be any time period really. But what makes me think it is a historical piece is because nobody is using phones.
I loved some of the charcters a lot - Gimm and Bua in particular. I think this may have been a low-budget production, but it fit a lot of themes into a very small show. I wish it was longer and that there would be a happy ending.
When I was watching Fight For You, there were so many times I felt like he could pass for a young Jackie Chan, or play Jackie Chan's son. Ironic though since Jackie Chan is pretty anti-LGBT and "traditional" in his view of gender roles (Michelle Yeoh once called him a MCP on tv).
The dubbing for Mr. Jo is so offputting! Why not use the actor's own voice or cast someone who has the accent they want? The dubbing is just so weird and looks so wrong. Other than that, episode 1 was pretty good.
Lmao. The acting industry already ran away before the show started.
🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️. In this show. Read the synopsis: Kari (played by Up) was in a relationship supporting his idol-wannabe BF who dumps Kari after he is successful.
Lovely Writer (Nubsib was an actor), step by step (he was the idol), My Stand In (Joe was a stunt double). Basically someone in Up's BL pairings has always been an idol/idol adjacent.
This kinda reminds me of late 90s/early 2000s movies. It is very slow and a lot of nothing happens. I don't know if I'll be continuing but it is interesting. Also the cast is interesting and pretty. Also JJ's brother is in it so I wanna support.
okay so there are so many theories. Let's start on the two cirs in the teaser for next ep: so either that is him…
Interesting discourse.
I agree, I don't see Cir as having DID. Although given his relationship with his mother, it could be. But then again most of the time people with DID don't know they have DID until something happens that alerts all the identies to each other's presence. Also, your observation that even if one identity was dating phu, phu would be aware of their relationship.
The way you described ep3 and the preview for next week kinda reminded me of that one Fluke-Ohm show (609 Bedtime Story) idk why. It also kinda makes me think of this ideology called Quantum Jumping.
I could be, but I've never been officially diagnosed. And you're not really allowed to self-diagnose. 🤷🏽♀️
Until this point it was a discussion. But you decided to try to do whatever that was to me. I don't know whether you have a background in psychology or not but you are adamant he doesn't have OCD. And me as a psychologist thinks he has the right traits to consider OCD given the very limited information we have. Would it only be a discussion if we come to a consensus? Would it only be a discussion if I agree with you? You are obsessively against the idea of Phu having OCD, this can go both ways. But that still doesn't make either of us OCD.
Also having OCD or any other mental health concern is not a bad thing. It's only bad if it is handled badly or incorrectly, or misrepresented in some way. It is not an insult in any way. I don't know why you are reacting so defensively.

I am watching Lost in the Woods and he looks nothing like this. He is a handsome young man.
