Pfft. I saw a different bts where Win talks about how as F4 the most important thing is always looking cool. Cracks me up to watch the bts where he also looks like a big dork.
That was the best possible ending I guess. It was ok but a lot of loose ends. CW and YS got a good character development…
Not laying everything out explicitly isn't really a "loose thread".
One of my favorite things about this finally was how nicely it gave honest looks at "where they are now" without wrapping everything in a bow (which is a typical and super unsatisfying resolution for many kdramas).
Jiung especially. He was such an interesting character and it is so believable that after finally resolving his traumatic relationship with his mom, and spending honest time with her, that he'd be in a better emotional state three years later. We see this. It was lovely.
And thankfully the show didn't shove a "see he has a relationship too" down our throats, since that would feel waaaay too much like pandering imo.
Oh I love that line in the trailer where Aunt Yu says, "Don't waiver. In every right thing you do, something has to be traded off". Powerful advice for a character who has basically been told not to waiver in all the WRONG things he does. Like his mom telling him she doesn't care what games he plays in school as long as he rules the school completely.
Uh, just gonna second the recommendation for Love and Redemption... it's one of my absolute favorite dramas (of any country or genre). It is such an epic story. By the time you get to the end, it's so hard to imagine the characters as they were from episode 1. I just... I love it so much.
He prob lead f4 because of his family status and how he used to be so temperamental. Thyme is the youngest f4…
Yeah, it's like the other 3 help protect him and care for his more fragile mental state. He is de-facto leader because he sees himself that way and they just go with the flow for his sake.
I agree with you, but for the part of him saying she looks average, i feel that is what eveyone says in these…
Took me so many dramas before I realized this. Like, they have to *tell* me the FL is considered unattractive because otherwise I'd never know that was how the other characters see her.
Bright is a star. Like Lee Min Ho. No doubt about this. I get cruel Thyme, confused smitten Thyme, childish Thyme.…
Hm. Seems pretty clear to me that F4 isn't led by Thyme because of gravitas (in any of the versions) but just because he is the most temperamental.
Also, lol, have to disagree about Lee Minho. I've always felt like he is a handsome black hole of charisma, like fancy cardboard. Part of what confuses me about people liking BOF is straight-up confusion that they didn't feel as blah as I did everytime Junpyo was on screen.
Assuming you're okay with being spoiled, the situation between them varies in different versions of this drama.…
I don't recall super well, but my impression of the other versions was that it's Kaning being hurt by her bf that gets Kavin to pay attention to her, which I always hated. Is this just my brain, or do other people remember it that way too?
Regardless, I freaking love all the connections between Kaning and Kavin in the lead up to that moment since I will actually believe that he'd care about seeing her hurt. Can't wait!
Totally agree! He's able to create this incredible intimacy in the romantic scenes, really mesmerizing. Sometimes…
Pfft Cha Eun Woo is definitely an actor I can't really get behind as a leading character. He's gorgeous, but I never really want to have him on screen.
Now Seojoon in True Beauty? Hell yeah! Put that guy in everything.
To be honest, the actor who play Thyme character actually can't deliver a good emotional or right character development.…
At the poolside in episode 3, when Thyme wistfully wipes yogurt from his lips as he remember the kiss, Kaving and MJ joke that Thyme lost all his cool. Lolol.
It makes sense that Thyme has always been a dork with his friends, because they know the real him, but at school he only shows up with his facade.

I wonder what my life would be like if I could binge shows in moderation... 🤔
