I was iffy about this drama because while the plot is intriguing but I just don’t like the FLs acting style.…
It's a good drama. But nothing that i can smile of make my heart feel lighter. Tbh i am also looking for a good romcom. If take charge of my heart isn't working for u. I feel in terms of comedy here i will not find much. Bits here and there that's it. But at the core of the story there is s very good journey and message that they can explore here.
Take charge of my heart was very silly and yet light. It was never plot oriented but more on feel good and comedy oriented.
Should I binge this later or is it worth watching this while airing?
Depends on u. This show is so far good till what i have watched (ep1) but still it's not something I can bing watch as this is not fluffy and make me feel good drama. It's a drama that under the very cliche trope they are trying to incorporate a journey and message about lot of things. If that works for u then yes u can try to binge watch. But me personally i feel i enjoy this type of stories while ongoing. As bingewatching seems a hectic work to me here. Happy watching
I was feeling sympathetic towards her boyfriend until the hotel scene, was an ass. My girl really put herself…
Same. Problem was not him asking for getting intimate. There is a huge diff between sex and getting intimate. He wants first. He lookism and mannerism towards FL showed that he only and only was desperate for sex. U dont make ur gf whom u claim to love uncomfortable like this. Going to motel. He knows that it's her first time and motel should not be the place to start their physical relationship journey. He was constantly saying about this in calls, msg, bar. What? Did he make her as his gf just to sleep? It was so bad. Specially seeing FL bg. Plus that condom part was so.....
Am going to rewatch this. This is my comfort drama. Whenever I feel sad or lost in my life I watch this. It's like a warm hug or cup of warm tea in cold weather. I can't find another drama like this.
Ep4, grandmother of wei Rao is so sweet. She gives money out of care and love for her. She indeed is guilty for pushing her granddaughter in uncertain future but her love for Wei Rao make her feel that she did wrong to her for family sake.
I have a feeling that Lu Zhao will notice and figure out A chou identity by seeing her hands. It's since ep1 they are emphasizing this.
Oh really? Hmmmm. You know, I'm not too surprised by either couple.Auboom are new and on shaky ground anyway,…
Atleast JoongDunk had lot of ML series together and fans were pointing out how there is mismatch in their acting levels. Plus their series were also not doing better. I had high expectations with Heart Killers but afterall it was GMMTV. Not sure about personal thing between them..
But AouBoom was shocking..they just had OFDO and their lineup series as ML was there. They just got started. They are good actors. So i am not sure why this happened. But i respect their decision. Just I am sad as i really like AouBoom.
But parting ways peacefully in this series is not gonna happen. Nine will not let it go. Not after North's comment. He acts all mighty but he in fact is more scared than any of them. Not to mention he is coward. He never own up his mistake or improve. I do think in show they will make ThirdWan as ultimate game. But it will be interesting to see how differences between Third and Nine get to the point of separation. If they take that route.
Doesn't matter. Still rapist. In ep2 didn't he did all those things even when yichen said no? He had anger and can't take no issue from the start. Yes won't go crazy like ep9 but still.
I don't remember seeing rape defending in the comments
But i do. Not in viki. But statements like "If i get someone as handsome as Lufeng then i would not deny it". " Just look at lufeng he is too hard to resist" etc etc etc. I feel like mostly are teen girls who say this. I can say this lot of teen girls have this idea that toxicity= loyalty= love. Ig that's why u can see lot of danmei novels are written by women in their teen or peak young age.
That's why I am not bothered about ratings here. I myself has love hate relationship with this drama. As much as I want to love this drama for it actually served toxicity that had me on my chokehold. I still hate that leads get to be together. Story didn't handled things in mature way. That is dangerous to the younger audience. That they will think this kind of stories should end with togetherness with no jail time served.
Also, i get this is released internationally because this would have never seen a light in Chinese censorship not because of LGBTQIA+ content. But because chinese censorship highly controls this kind of toxicity related themes. They don't want to send a message that they promote this. Plus with no jail time after this is a big no no no for them. Plus having ended up together no matter happy or sad is also a no no. Even in straight dramas all the toxicity is just toned down because of this reason...
This series should come with disclaimer of having mature audience. Otherwise it's a huge problem. Eg- The Early Spring( straight drama) highly popular recently is rated as 8.6. because that story marketed as "You don't have to be perfect to be worthy of love" and characters are marketed as "flawed". But that is straight up toxicity till the end. And mostly girls only promoted that. Another eg is Lighter and Princess. So there are audience that will say " ok but see he loves also", " see he is yearning and in pain".
Sorry had to bring straight dramas for reference only to highlight this craze is not specific to BL dramas but to all romance genres.
Can I come to ur room for roti sai mai? Ok so this is the thai version of can I come to ur room to eat rameyon?
Cute cute cute. Cuteness overloaded warning in ep8.
I love that Third becomes so puppy in front of Wan. Their love looks cute and playful but is also healing and mature. Third becomes mature yet childish in front of Wan. He becomes innocent. I mean i can see the face of Third having innocent looking from the school time which Nine after betrayal snatched away.
I loved that boat Convo. It's so mature.
Wan said i don't know if i would be happier if i haven't met Nine as he made him. Third understood along with us and said it's not entirely wrong. Because indeed Wan indirectly got an opportunity to get into series because of Nine event and whole events that played out after that. But it's also Wan audition and his effort to try and do better in acting with a good heart is what making him famous. But i guess i can understand why Wan felt that if he would be happier if he didn't met Nine. As a fangirl myself i can feel and understand him. Idiolising is diff than looking upto. Both can coexist but they are still diff. Looking upto is like getting motivation. Idiolising can be of diff reason. But when u become fanboy it's because u get some comfort from them. U relate with them. U felt seen and heard. They don't know u but their words have that power to soothe u. Wan must have felt that while photographing for Nine. Nine somehow gave Third a hobby he want to hold onto those days. So yeah i get him. While that was said to Wan. Third also realise that somewhere Third is also having changed believes because of Nine.
Sadly, Nine is not a good person to begin with. But somehow he became the star that everyone once looked and admired then after knowing or not knowing his truth found their way in life. It also said the truth not all stars that shine are there to give u brightness because one of the star is Sun whose heat and closeness can burn u.
Third when said to Wan "even fans needs to make the living". Wan was touched along with me. That one simple line was so powerful to say that "u did no wrong". It showed apart from saesang Third values his fans. And treat them as human being. He realises that fans make them. But it's also fans who needs to do some job to fan them. Getting merch, streaming dramas comes at the cost of time and money. He understand that. And I absolutely love Third for this.
Wan then asked Third's reason on being on screen partner. He remembered last night Convo about scholarship thing.
That's an equal relationship. No top no bottom. Just two people in love. Trying to get close and hold each other while healing each other. Never dealing with things that require seriousness with immature way but still innocent and bringing out their inner child to each other. I was smiling ear to ear.
Third felt warmth from Wan parents. But I liked Wan maturity that he told Third his mom also wanted good for him. He is not wrong but in the process Third was never asked about his happiness and his will instead forced one.
I absolutely hate Nine. After all that he pretended like nothing happened when Third and he met first time after that incident.
Not defending or pitying Nine. But did North and Nine love each other. I don't feel like that. Atleast there is some consistency in behaviour of Nine towards North which is fake. But North? He sometimes act cold and violent to Nine and sometimes act sweet but still insult Nine indirectly. Nine surely is tasting his own medicine here. But somewhere if i would have heard those words even if there is no love i would be hurt. I wonder North does this unintentionally or he knows what he is speaking.
Ep3, idk what was madam Wu's problem so what A chou was pot cleaner? Why she was so adamanant in sending A chou back to Wei Residence? I know it's because Lu Zhou woke up and they want to kill A chou so that Jun Dai can take the place. But why Wu was so loyal to the Wei family? What she was gaining? Anyways now that she is dead i don't have to see her.
I love the contrast this ep showed between persona of A chou and Jun dai.
Also i get Lu Zhou. Man. He must hate Jun dai to the core that whenever he sees her he gets scared of the face. When her face is the talk of the county that she is so beautiful. Showing Lu Zhao what he said also believes as well. It's heart who needs to be beautiful not face. I love how they showed this by this act. It kills two birds with one stone. Showing hatred as well as his values.
But i think somewhere he is also seeing that Wei Rao saved a kid. And even though he don't believe that there is no hidden intention but he got proved wrong. As i already knew that they will make A chou and Lu Zhao fall in love via this route this is not shocking to me.
But I like the fact that even if A chou hurted herself to sprew lies and make herself show pitiful in front of others. It's to save herself. Unlike Jun Dai.
I wonder what will happen when Jin dai and Wei family knows that Lu Zhao is alive. Jun dai will most probably coming into the pic.
Take charge of my heart was very silly and yet light. It was never plot oriented but more on feel good and comedy oriented.
Here u can expect more plot driven story.
I have a feeling that Lu Zhao will notice and figure out A chou identity by seeing her hands. It's since ep1 they are emphasizing this.
