I'm not going to lie, I can feel that they wanted me to love this episode but I didn't. It's fine, it's not bad at all, but I found it lacking in many aspects. For starters, I don't think the emotional scenes were that well acted. The actors have great chemistry, but when they're going through or recounting such heartwrenching situations I just don't *feel* that sadness yk? I guess I'll never be the same after the acting in Bad Buddy oh well. And another thing, I'd have preferred the dad to stay as a morally grey character. He did abandon his kids after all, and it felt like they forgave him completely without a reason? I think he's a deeply flawed individual who's been hurt and has hurt others, and both sides of him should be acknowledged.

Why is this good? Like actually. The chemistry is insane. I am befuddled. Idk how they're meant to keep it up for twelve whole episodes, but I am feeling hopeful so far. I came in thinking it was gonna be Jinx 2.0 and now I'm sitting here actually rooting for them. Ahh it feels great to be surprised

This was great. I like that we got to see the dad's perspective (even if it doesn't fully justify how absent he was during Jinwoo's childhood), and how Jinwoo was able to get some closure after talking to him. And BITCH. Jinwoo and Gi Seop?? They're gonna be the end of me. They're too cute

If they keep up this energy for the entire series I think I'll really like it. I find the main couple really cute, honestly, idk why some people are saying they're annoying. The last scene left me speechless lmao

I found the acting a little bit ridiculous at first (like when the guy is poking him and trying to tickle him) but ended up having a lot of fun watching this. The "I'll sweep you off your feet" premise seems promising

I'm younger than everyone in this series, so why do I feel like they're my kids lmao - they have to stop making me sad though, the tragic backstory was really well done

So, first off - why are the bullies shitting their pants every time Tae Myung is brought up?? He hasn't done anything except for breaking up fights and talking back so far. ----- Also, that other guy is third wheeling so hard it's kind of painful to watch, like have some dignity please

On the one hand, it's cute that Karan was doing all those little things to help make Achi's day better - that's perfectly respectful of his boundaries, and it shows that his love language might be acts of service. Which is adorable. -- On the other hand, I don't know if I believe Achi's feelings for him are romantic. Up until now, he's only seemed grateful for Karan's feelings and his help. He himself says that he doesn't know what being in love is like, so I'm afraid he might be confusing gratitude with love? Idk, it just didn't look that organic that he *suddenly* likes Karan romantically. The realisation that Karan had been helping him all along should have been more gradual, in my opinion. --- The chasing at the airport was so funny lol, it's such an overused trope but it works I guess. At least they're on the same page now.

Ok so. I loved 80% of this episode, they are so cute as always. I have such a soft spot for Phojai, she's so supportive and resilient. I hope she gets her happy ending with Day's brother. ---- On the other hand, even if they were both in on the joke, Idk how I feel about Day constantly insinuating that he was going to fire Mhok if he tried anything. I know it was supposed to be lighthearted banter, but it showcased their power dynamic in a way that made me a little bit uneasy. ------- That ending was so convoluted omg - you mean to tell me his eyes just- gave up? On the spot?? The doctor said in the preview that his sight had deteriorated, but how did it happen so quickly?? - Also. ALSO. If in the end Mhok gives his eyes to Day and becomes blind or something I will personally fight Aof. I'm just saying.

Ok so I'm absolutely in love with this episode, loved the jealousy and the kiss, the acting, everything. Idk what the hell August is going through, but that was weird, we'll forget it happened - he's so fine though (someone had to say it) ---- Also, can we talk- can we just talk about the STARES?? Istg I had no idea Jimmy had it in him to look at someone that way. He has the Nanon/Fourth stare. Oh my God I'm actually kind of speechless.

I feel so bad for that poor girl. He was the one to ask his friend to find him a date and then he ignores her and gives her the cold shoulder.

It was a wild ride, not gonna lie. This series was as messy as it promised to be. ------ So... Boeing is gone. I like the way Ray handled him, even though I was hoping Sand would be the one to do it. He was kind of allowing Boeing to get close to him, and that was weird. ----- TopMew were fine. I don't care for them, as I've already stated. I wouldn't have taken Top back, but whatever. ----- SandRay had great chemistry, and I liked that Ray gave Sand an ultimatum about Boeing. It's nice that they help each other be better. Still, I'm not the biggest fan of Ray. I wouldn't have taken him back either, realistically. But the vibes are there lol. ------- I CANNOT believe we got a kiss from CheumApril. They're such a good couple - genuinely the only healthy relationship in the series. Wish we could've seen them in more scenes. ------ Finally... BostonNick. Was I rooting for them last week? Yes. Not anymore. I love that Nick got his shit together and distanced himself from Boston. To Boston: you piece of sh*t I TRUSTED YOU -- Actually, I was having a hard time believing his overly sweet attitude. It didn't feel right nor true to his character. So, I'm kind of glad my gut feeling got proven right. If he can't commit to a single person, he should stay alone. ----- Also, that fire was random af. Where did it come from? In what way did it impact the plot? Idk. It felt unnecessary. And that last character walking in at the end... are we getting a second season or? What was all that about?

This episode on its own was so heartwarming. The characters have lots of interactions that feel genuine and completely natural, and that's thanks to the two actors' chemistry. Some moments were a little bit cheesy for my taste, but overall it was fun. I still think Kanghan should formally apologize to Sailom and his friends for the (severe) bullying, even though I appreciate that he tried to make up for it in this ep. Also, I LOVE Auto. He's so funny when he gets drunk lmaoJust, calling back to what I first said (this episode 'on its own').. I struggle to match this Kanghan to the one we met on episode 1. It's not just character development - it's unrealistic change of behavior in the span of a REALLY short amount of time. This is not the enemies to lovers I was sold.

Hate seeing how spineless Tharn becomes when he's around San. He allows him to kiss him (even though he has a boyfriend), for what? Why did he take it so well? And then San had the audacity of lecturing Type about his relationship, as if he hadn't boned a 14-year-old boy??At least Type retaliated by making him jealous as well. It's still toxic, but oh well. At this point we're embracing the toxicity Iguess. But Tharn forcing himself onto Type again was triggering and I wanted to punch him. Being in a relationship with someone does NOT erase consent. Type didn't want to do it in a public space, so you better back the fuck off the moment he says no for the first time. Surprisingly, they are quite cute for the rest of this ep, even though the 'I'm not gay I just like you' thing still bothers me.Also, Techno is so cutee, I love him T-T

I find it funny that the actors playing San and Tharn are actually much closer in age than Tharn and Type, yet I still see San as a p*dophile. When he said he was attracted to Tharn's 'innocence' as a 14 year-old - wtf?? I did like this episode more than the previous ones, though. They communicated their issues, apologized, and talked things out (even though, imo, Type had every right to be jealous of seeing San and Tharn together, specially after knowing they had been a thing). As for Tharn's family, I don't really care for it, I'm sorry. I'm just watching their scenes because the actress that plays the mom is also in My School President and I love her. Otherwise, meh.
