I get it logically, but when I need to imagine his life there instead of witnessing it, it lacks the conviction and emotional impact for me. I saw their big love and them claiming they will fight for it no matter what, not their separate lives later. There is a huge difference between understanding something happened and experiencing it. That's why show don;t tell is better in majority of cases 🥲

I went to check, coz I was SURE her family still thinks she is nuts and she does take meds. Episode 35 around 46 minute in she says that maybe she has hallucinations again, that her family thinks she is mentally ill and that she often hallucinates. And that since she was young she has been taking meds 🤡 So this is what confuses me. Coz it;s either she still sees demons which makes no sense coz in this timeline she never got that blood in her eye. Or her family is medicating her just coz of nightmares 🥲

inter-species romances are against nature's laws and never get outright happy endings. < I would not be mad if it was not a last 2 episodes things. What annoyed me is throughout the whole show she kept saying how nothing matters and she will stay with him, she was ready to drop her sick dying grandma to be with him, but now she is like: okay bye. Maybe if they actually gave me some time to see her in her new life so emotionally I would get her dilemma, but they did not 🤡

Same with ML - he had zero care for the demon realm, but last two episodes he does. I just feel like what happened in last two eps should happen in like 10 🤡

As for the kills - either kill, or don;t kill, but the cheap "no one REALLY died" was just.... cheap.

Here's question tho, if he set everything back in place before they even met, shouldn't she not be able to see demons? They never met, so his blood never got into her eye. Does she see them, or her family thinks she is crazy just coz of her nightmares? 🥲

I feel like I already saw all the good ones, I'm left with things like that 🤣

Yeah my comment is also not that serious 👍

Just your local overthinker and not thinker at all having a chat 🤣

This scene perfectly represents them - one does not do shit because he overthinks everything, and the other does not do shit, coz he does not understand there is shit he needs to react to, coz there is nothing in that brain 🤣

I am sorry, but the whole second half of the episode I went "the fuck did you smoke, are you high" coz even considering finding a razor in the food you yourself made as just "bad luck" is fucking wild, coz bad lack is something that can happen in the realm of normal experience, FINDING A FUCKING RAZOR IN YOUR FOOD IS NOT SOMETHING THAT CAN JUST "HAPPEN" 🤡

One of the moment that pissed me off was when Chan Young started to "complain" how he does not really know a lot about Heesu, and how Heesu never says anything and I'm like -HAVE YOU EVER EVEN ASKED HIM ANYTHING. Like... people usually do not open up about themselves to people who show zero interest in the first place.

I'm actually not that mad about Ji Yi's frustration, because it was valid. At the end of the day she became a victim of Seung Won's lie and his lie was negatively impacting her life. Personally I think she had all the right to be pissed about it. It's not like she was saying you need to tell him you don;t like him AND that you like him. He did not hace to confess to his feeling, just say that he does not like her. That's it.

capitalizing on the appeal of the source material < this is what annoys me the most. It';s basically saving money on promotion since the source material is popular, and then gaining profits while disrespecting the audience that generated the profit in the first place.

Like, I can understand introducing straight couple as SIDE couple. It does not matter how dedicated the production team is if no one wants to throw money at them to actually make the show BUT for fuck sake, keep them as a side couple. Like - they are there to fill the space, make the story more "believable" - as in the leads do not exist in their own bubble, but there are people around them who also seem like real people that have their own thing going on. But it should NEVER feel like the overshadow the main story. And that's how so many people felt with this show. I honestly got annoyed how not only romance wise, but as individual characters the straight ones had more going on and their story seemed more completed with them not only having the love line, but also their own separate stories.

you know what's worse? They literally decided that the footsteps will be THE ONLY SOUND for the opening scene. No music, not even any ambient noise lol

Yeah but I think they went step too far. I was honestly not mad about them adding straight couple as a way to make it more approachable for wider audience. The original webtoon did not have the straight couple, so adding it as a side couple is already changing the source material a lot. But then they not only added straight couple, but also at least for some episode gave it more focus than the main lead (like even outside of Heesu's romance, some episodes had less of him alone than the straight couple).

If you need to go this far, just do not adapt the gay webtoons, make your own straight youth drama with gay side coupe.

The adaptation was mostly based on vibes and not the source material < oh my fucking god this is so fitting 🔥

It's honestly sad. I don't get why they won't just make their original youth dramas if they want to focus on the straight characters, why adapt original BL stories 😭

the opening scene was so bad. Who thought that sound design and idea was good? 😭

same! When a fluff gentle fun guy gets jealous, it's a game changer! 🔥🔥🔥

I mean there being straight couple is one thing, but the amount of time used on tennis and covers is just embarrassing

I am convinced that romance in nor romance focused dramas is always FUCKING BEST.

I am living for I Yeong and Koo Do Won 🔥 that fucing elevator scene? The tension, and the realistic soft angst with what he said after stepping out of it. But also that scene in the 4th year residents area - how he was pretending to sleep, but also you can fucking see how conflicted he is.

But also the last part of the episode, poor girl... and then we get to see I Young also breaking down because of her mother's death and the memories.

Damn this was such a good episode. 1h 20 minutes, but feels so short 😭
I love the slice of life vibe.

really mid 🥲

it is don't bother, sadly coz "the leads" were cute, they just felt more like side.

yeah when I read your review after posting mine, I literally could not stop laughing about the alternative title lol
