lowkey feel so sad about pobmek’s past :((( being stuck on a path chosen by your parents is actually so heavy… like imagine not even having the freedom to live your own life, even in college he was still feeling that pressure all the time.but thankfully solar came into his life and made things a little brighter, he finally got to enjoy the journey a bit more.solar really feels like the universe’s way of apologizing to pobmek fr 🥺✨

KJ2025 In this episode Yan Ling is making slow progress with ChangNing. She does some purging on the beach to literally erase Feng’s name from her thoughts. While she is not even close to being done with the trauma from him, she has stabilized enough to move out of his apartment and start breaking ties. For her, this is a huge step in the right direction. Knife girl is also making progress and her future seems brighter as well. Yan Ling pushes her acting limits after a comment from Dr Luo. She finds herself in a cheap hotel with a younger guy there for one reason only. She ends up getting picked up at the police dept by her ex. This was so dangerous. She did not make a backup plan for either herself or her son. Her young son was the adult in the room getting his own ride to school and letting the dad know something was up with Yan Ling. What is surprising is that he ends up investigating with her. They track down Eric and then get a lead to a PUA love course. They openly say they are out to manipulate women and show men steps on how they can get what they want from them by using pickup artist techniques. This is not even illegal because it is viewed as dating aids. 😝😡 The ex husband agrees to go undercover to see what they can learn about their dead friend and the correlation with the tattoo. Feng pays a professional visit to Dr Luo. He actually received a lesson if he’s smart enough to understand the doctor’s more subtle implications. He was encouraged to increase his diet to different types in response to the question he asked. It is really disgusting how willing one was to learn and the other teach. Dr Luo is browsing through the upper echelons of classes at this love institute course, so is he an observer or teacher? I think the reason he is going through lower course is to see what Yan Ling is learning rather than seeking guidance for himself, or maybe as a study in aberrant behavior which aligns more with his personal view of things. The ex is far from cool no matter what they try to do with him at the class. He is different in that he has morals with women. While the class are all cheering the instructor, he is paying close attention to the details. I am hoping he is disgusted with what he has just seen. The episode ends with ex hubby’s gf noticing his new hair color. This story is so dark that I appreciate the moments of levity to just get a break from the manipulations and machinations of this group and like ilk. The scariest part of this story is it could be anybody that just happens to have that tilted perspective to use their contacts with people for selfish motives rather than true interest, empathy and concern.

estar this was so much fun, both pairs r so wholesome which is hella ironic given the conmen in each pair. but Pai & North r really naïve & not as guarded & suspicious as they need to be, for people in their position. not to mention they r really good people so i get how hard it is not to fall for them. still dreading the moment both Pai & North find out that the people they have fallen for conned them. that's gonna be a rude awakening. ************************************************************************************btw for a conman, i thought it was a very stupid move for Yu to take out all the money North gave him, to hide around his place, as if banks weren't more secure & given the life he has lead, one would think the would be smarter. but i guess it was needed so his biological mother would show-up only to rob him blind. all this for him to appreciate what a pure soul North is??? maybe *** ****************************************************************************************************************************************also find it funny that both Tim & Yu used the same woman to play their mother & yet they don't know each other - have never bumped into each other in their profession?!? ***************************************************************************************side note: i really love Louis playing the quirky sidekick roles - he is always so freakin funny. but cause he is just a side character there isn't enough of him & that's a pity

cute, fun 1st ep even though i would rather see the build-up to the actual romance. but i get why it was skipped, as this not a real romance yet - at least not on the scammers part. & i am here for Junior, but i loved North (Poon) he is the MVP of this ep, dude is such a pushover i am shocked he has never been scammed before, cause it was literally like taking candy from a baby. here Tim had to put in work for over a yr to get a proposal & Yu did it in less then 24 hrs - heck he got quite a heft sum without any work & if he chose to disappear now, he's wont be walking away empty handed. *********************************************maybe cause of this, i already feel bad for him when he realizes that Yu is a conman & doesn't really love him. same with Pai i guess - ********************************************************************************************************************************side note: i really tended not to like Ohm & would avoid anything he was in, more cause he was always paired with Fluke & sorry but i can't stand the dude or rather the character's he tends to portray, so am happy to see Ohm with other actors as can see him & not "the pair" - which i always found stupid - that u have to/ can Only act with that one actor u were paired with in that one BL, cause that was successful or cause of chemistry.... cause fans!! - weird & annoying. *********************************actors need to take any role & act with anyone so they can learn & grow, becoming better in their profession. the pigeonholing is moronic & can be a death blow for their career IMO.

NLE What a cute episode, but the downside was Pobmek’s mother being so toxic and unreasonable. If your son loves music and wants to perform in a band, and you disapprove, that is something you talk about with him privately. As an older adult, you should be setting an example for others. Instead, she threw a full tantrum, went on stage, yelled at him, grabbed his guitar, and smashed it in front of everyone. That kind of behavior shows a complete lack of respect for her own son. It is no surprise that he felt the need to hide his career and even his boyfriend from her.

SoulMyth This episode was heartbreaking. So many people died. I also have to take back all my complaints in my review of the last couple of episodes. Now I see it was all for show to trick the Wu Feng.

Here Is Ellen as far as eps 1, which I've watched, both of main characters seem depressed. Dong Man chooses to talk a lot, while Eun Ah chooses to be quiet. But she's like a bomb that could explode at any moment. The story begins when one character introduced himself and the main character through his story. It flows smoothly, a strong theme 10/10👎👎👎👎 One eps feels like a movie. Can't wait to see eps 2 tonight!

In a conventional romance drama, this would be about the time in the story when the writers would contrive some reason to separate the two romantic leads. They would then gradually find their way back together. In a longer series, that might repeat, with increasing drama each time. In this series, which is not a conventional drama, the writers decided to separate the budding father-daughter relationship between Ren Xinzheng and Sun Tou Tou. For a pretty flimsy reason. But whatever. It was pretty emotional and interesting to see how each person deals with it. I really liked how LingLan Song called out her husband for holding on to his pride and pointing out how that had meant all the people around him kept having to swallow their own pride to do things for him. Overall, Ren Xinzheng is a wreck and handles the separation poorly. Meanwhile, Sun Tou Tou, being much emotionally tougher and having grown so much, handles it like the boss queen that she is.

Ari It's a must-watch for MDZS fans cause it's focused on our boys! Gives me huge serotonin boost haha. What can be better than watching Lan Wangji being the most repressed lover boy in existence and his dumb (but cute) beloved being clueless af lol!

This episode was made great by both the growing trust and bond between Professor Ren and Sun Tou Tou and then especially by the cute drinking session they have together to cap off the episode. This episode is also notable because, finally -- FINALLY -- Run Tian Zhen does something positive for Sun Tou Tou. I guess he does feel guilty for the stupid stunt he pulled with getting her drunk and leaving her because in this episode he helps her get her 'punishment' assignment done. This is a huge step forward for his character and one that is way overdue.

It was a lovely beginning. I came expecting nothing, and left with so much expectations. They delivered so well. Save to say, I'm obsessed.

It's so nice to see the two brothers back again! Overall, very solid first episode that gives a great taste of what the season would look like, and the introduction of the new antagonists for this arc was ice cold. However, the mother was disappointing. You're telling me that throughout season 1, she's still as naive as she is now in season 2??? From letting the antagonists in her home to not letting her son know about the strange men who showed up at her shop, the whole kidnapping incident could've been prepared for. However, I am extremely glad they won the house invasion fight at the end!

InspectorMegre This is absolutely delightful! What a masterpiece! such a great story and acting, and filming. So creative. And nothing, absolutely nothing like the writeup. Based on the writeup, I thought this would be a gloomy melodrama, but heck no! There is humor, there is depression and loan sharks, and there is sunlight and fields of flowers and new experiences and love. Totally charming and delightful. A real art piece :)
