The author/artist wrote one of the finest pieces of graphic literature representing the social discrimination faced by minorities via race or sexuality in the form of a soft high school romance manga metaphoring the segregations by adding vampirism. a beautifully crafted story, where each character was given depth, background, value and originality.
and all of that going to trash bc some drunk director and producer decided to make a joke out of it

clinic owner tried to stirr drama between the other doc and the FL, but the other doc was like, nah im not gonna tryto ruin a beautiful relationship, fk your fantasy ship.
finessst drama ever <3

yes, she matures a lot. the drama is great in general if i ignore the FL's behavior. but the beginning felt like looking at a 10 y/o interacting with a 50y/o in a romantic format

what did she even do?

gender reverse secret basically

ah my mistake iotnbo

how does one put kidnap and romance in the same genre between the same characters ?

ayo can you guarantee if this is rr?

best dynamic

its giving IOTBO but more calculated and less fluffy

thats probably the most realistic ending they could have come up with. that relationship was not salvageable unless they pulled that stunt. but at least they stayed together. i liked this movie a heck lot tbh.

One thing is NOT right about the series. Heidi had to use her cells to save soo-in. This would cause soo-in to gain some of heidi's powers as the cells would intermix, as it happened in Izumi's case when he fought his mother. but soo-in was still weak as heck. That has to be a plot FLAW!!

For anyone wondering how the other parts of the franchise are :
Og manga > OG anime >>> Netflix korean live action adaptation >>>>>>>>>>> japanese live action

Seol kyung hee was korea's Reiko Tamura. I almost cried. Reiko parasyte died protecting her child, and kyung hee parasyte died protecting her host's brother. feelings kicked right in!
i was hoping they brought a Reiko tamura character and they did in the most gut wrenching manner. <3. beautiful remake

same girl <3

hes the only reason i am watching. I generally don't watch adaptative live actions into another country. aka korean/chinese live action remakes of japanese anime, i feel it takes the authenticity out of it. but if they are including izumi, they are maintaining the authenticity of the original work. also suda masaki is love, turu love

bengali here, and yes age gap and deffo an issue in asian culture, but only when the lady is older.

no no. I get it. and there is nothing wrong with falling for "step siblings" whom you didn't even grow up with or were not even in knowledge of what happened. there is literally no relationship between the two, especially if adults when the parents married.
My logical head finds no flaw in that, its that my societal upbringing is what is causing the issue for me. siblings, step siblings, etc any two people, who are related in any familial form , being in romantic love, is a taboo to my eyes.
yes i know this is a me problem.
and had this series been just this way then i would not have had any problem with it.
BUT, thats not even my issue with this drama:
original was nothing like this. there was no valid reason from the FL's parents to dislike the dude, just their own biased nature. but that scenario completely flipped here, because finally, here the parents had a good enough valid reason to say no. i think they had to bring a strong basehold for the parents to deny bc older lady- younger man marriages are much more common in china than korea. like they needed something of more material for the parents to act in that way.

also thank you for sharing your story. definitely helped me expand my own narrow perspective

super realistis sad ending

the continuous growth of ML's white hair showed the stress he was gradually going through.
