so Pemika cut her losses by firing them, given her personality i don't see that happening, without her bleedin them dry 1st & making sure they would never have an in, in the entertainment industry. also the fact Mick is still employed at her company, is far fetched. but we needed a solution to the problem & it needed to be quick, so we have a happily ever after... it is what it is. *******************************************************************************************************************************************Thame & Po r cute together & they had good chemistry (more so cause of Thame, Po - sorry, but the deer in the headlights looks is something that can take u so far). also liked the chemistry between the guys in MARS & Jun (even though he kinda took the back seat, the sec Thame & Po started dating) is still my favorite character. *************************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************on a whole, this was interesting & fun to watch, was it perfect nope - but it was fun while was watching, but this not so good ima rewatch.

i was waiting for the return of the ex... & the moron is wrong, Po hasn't grown - he is still the same gullible, pushover he always was. him giving Earn the benefit of the doubt, saying he understands him cause he was thinking about Thame (& the start of their relationship, how he misunderstood him when they 1st met), just rubbed me the wrong way. cause there is NO comparison between the two! *******************************************************************************************************but Earn showed his true colors, when he felt comfortable that Po accepted his apology & was the same old moron he knew, so he would happily go along with whatever, really brought him to search Po out. maybe that meeting was needed for Po to realize what he had lost, when he agreed to breakup with Thame & that is why he sat down to reminisce - finding Thames love letter. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the rest - i have to say, don't see any way out for the group, they have No power, No connection & NO money. what can they do (even with Po's help?!?) to get out from under Pemika's iron fist?!? & this time around Thame has signed a contract with the Korean company & that doesn't cancel out the OG contract he got with Oner Entertainment - so asking again, what can they do?? whatever it is, i hope it makes sense & it aint a 'whatever, lets slap a bow on it & call it done"... ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw the fact that Mick suddenly a good guy, that was always supporting them from the side lines, mean's sh*t cause he doesn't have more power then Pemika, & doubt he's willing to lose his job for the band or anyone....

well this was predictable, Pemika hasn't gotten to her position by being a benevolent, pushover. she is cutthroat & she will do whatever makes her company succeed. steamrolling talent is something she does on the daily, this was just another day for her.**************************************************************************************************************************************** the ones at fault were Po, Thame & his group buddies. no one loves hearing i told u so.. but i did, in the previous ep. if the Pepper's situation wouldn't have been left for Pemika to deal with - or rather the group hadn't followed her orders to a tea, things wouldn't have turned out this way. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** same with Po, the sec he saw how she did the group dirty, with the 1st song they produced only to find out she had given it to Ice, he should've started collecting evidence that could damage Oner Entertainment & threaten to use it to save his ass or help the person he loves. but he just kept being his passive self, not really getting out of his comfort zone. so of course everyone got in line & ended up following her grand plan. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* the only way for everyone to get out from under her is to destroy her plans, which means giving up on their dreams - something i don't think any one of them is ready to do. so she placated them with something shiny, so they wouldn't feel too bad, but it was a distraction cause this is a cycle that will repeat itself - especially if u r under her. more or less like selling ur soul to the devil, the guys haven't read the fine print & they r f*cked...

had a feeling the person that leaked the info about Pepper dating was Oner Entertainment. Pemika ordering Mick or doing so herself & as the main point was to hurt MARS = Thame, get him back under her thumb, she succeeded. they had plenty of time to say their peace, before the press conference arranged by their agency. where they had the power to speak the truth - use their words. but they kept delaying, having talks with each other & then just went along with Pemika's plan. in the day & age where u have every platform at ur fingertips - they chose to act like they don't own a phone or a computer. sorry but sometimes it's better to crash a burn, then keep being a slave to someone else commands. they basically signed their freedom away - again. ************************************************************************************************************************* ****************************************************************************************************************************************regarding the rabid-fan's, this is the industries fault. like in western countries, the fans opinions don't hold so much weight, as the agencies & mangers don't force their talent to act like they monks & machines that only exist in the role they play in public & in their personal life they get shut off & they ceases to exist. or worse create fake relationships, cause they had good chemistry with another actor (they were in a movie or drama with). the entertainment industry is the one feeding the egos of the rabid-fans, as if they have the right to dictate everything about whomever they admirer. the logic behind this is f*cked-up. & sorry but just cause idols & actors say "i love u" to their fan's, doesn't mean they actually do & anyone buying this sh*t needs a vacation in a padded room. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************this was a sad ep, sad that Po & Thame's honeymoon period was cut short cause of this mess. but them holding hands in public at the end of the ep was a stupid move, considering everything that happened in this ep. they both should know better!

6th sense taste vs noodles

Hyun Bong Sik’s turn started with 6th sense competition. Chef Yeon Bok made a braised pork rib curry and an additional shrimp dish for him to combine. Chef Jong Won made tacos with mole. There was much speculation over who would win and his friend chose the correct chef. Chef Poong is making noodles with a hint of Chinese and Chef Kang-rok is making barley noodle with lots of green onions. Chef Poong named his new pan Sylvia🤣 since matfia Napoli won after giving it away he now questions how lucky this pan will be.😂chef Poong was surprised by an accidental flambé 🤣 neither of these chefs have won a star yet so they are getting extra cheers and encouragement as they cook.i think Sylvia is going to be retired after this cook.😂This was a very chaotic round for chef Poong and chef Kang-rok just very calmly prepared his dish. They looked like war and peace 😂

Huuh, What did I watch?

I will give this 3 to 4 episodes to see if it gets better, if not looks like I may end up dropping this. So far only good thing about this series really is it had some fuinny parts in it, other wise.... It started out like "Hello" I was not expecting that to be the first scene, thou Jun's kissing could have been WAY better, Sorn did a nice job.. The story is not like the summary.. That say Jun does the pranks to Sorn, but it seem like Sorn was the one doing them to Jun. I am just lost on this one, it's not like what the summary says really. Plus there are holes in this. I know 1st ep, but come on... I got questions, and I may get answers if I keep watching, but I will only do that if this gets better in the next couple episodes. Just wait and see.

Polar opposites and perilla leaves

The guests this episode are Son Su Ku and Hyun Bong Sik. Edward Lee has returned and Su-Ku and Poong start off drawing Chef Lee souvenir portraits. They both did a decent job tho Chef Lee did not admire Poong’s rendition. 😂 Kwon Seong Jun was called baby Hyun Seok after his defeat the last show🤣Today’s contest puts a new spin on minute advantage. Anybody can use it now but only the first one that uses it per team. So first come first serve. Chef Eun Yeong and Chef Ho Young claim the minute bonus so Chef Lee and Chef Kwon do not have the option. They agree on it since neither one has it. The first has fritters and cold udon vs a fried noodle boat with cold salad on top of warm chicken mixture. It is a fun cooking atmosphere and both chefs ended up losing their bonuses. They are saying this is a repeat of culinary wars with second perilla leaf battle between Kwon Seong Jun and Edward Lee. 😂 These two are so much more serious and quiet. They are really competing and both want to win. Ragu vs steak. All of the dishes look wonderful as usual.

The sky is falling

This episode starts with the Temp group’s comms completely cut off. This was especially dangerous for ErZhuang who cannot exist for long disconnected from her body. BaoBao and Chen Duo are getting acquainted and playing games. ErZhuang finds herself in one of the automotans and there is an eerie battle with a mob of automotans attacking her and two other temp colleagues. The company jumps to the wrong decision and assumes everybody has deserted the company and aligning with Leader Ma. This group of old guys needs a better advisor to get out of their echo chamber and really get a grasp of what’s going on. ErZhuang saves the day by making a tower of automotan parts and literally breaking a hole in the sky. The temps are working to get back together and Chen Duo is given a choice. Unlike with the company, no collars are involved. She is really being allowed to decide for herself. WangYe notes the disturbance and sees a storm is brewing.

Freedom

We learn more of Chen Duo’s story the night of Liao’s death. She begins on a mission where the target she is following can be brought back alive or dead. Her watchers aren’t concerned and think Chen Duo has everything under control. As luck would have it, her target was a disciple of leader Ma. She makes it far enough to beg for mercy from him. He has some sidekicks along and a fight takes place. He is unhappy with the condition of his follower and takes both women back to Biyou. His follower dies and he lets Chen Duo know he’s not happy about it. He takes her to the gate and tells her to be on her way. Her watchers are freaking because she is no longer on grid. The powers that be want her collar activated. Leader Ma removed her tracking device and collar. He even showed her exactly what the collar was capable of. Chen Duo shocks him by requesting the collar be put back on. She wants to stay but asks to return to see Liao one last time. Liao is happy to hear from her and rushes to the rescue. He is shocked by her requests and refuses to respond. She tries to get him to comply by infecting him so they can go to Biyou and get cured. He refuses to trigger her collar and to go with her. And the end result of that choice we saw in the beginning of story. She and BaoBao are now trapped together in Biyou. Chen Duo’s story is incredibly sad. She and Feng BaoBao are like flip sides of a coin.

Tenho tanto o que falar

Esse episódio foi tão bom. O andamento do drama está seguindo de forma sutil, mas eficaz — do jeitinho que eu gosto. A química e o amor entre Kim Shin e Eun Tak são tão palpáveis, mesmo sem confissões ou qualquer toque físico. Mal posso esperar para ver esse casal se tornar, de fato, um casal (não me decepcionem, roteiristas!).O casal secundário também é cheio de química, mesmo com pouco tempo de tela. Eles combinam tanto e entregam muito carisma e emoção.E o que dizer do ceifador de vela? Kkkkkkk muito bom!A interação entre Kim Shin, Eun Tak e o ceifador é uma delícia de assistir.Mas aquele final… foi o ponto alto pra mim. A tristeza nos olhos de Kim Shin ao ver a consequência da decisão que tomou, enquanto Eun Tak está feliz, sem lembrar dele (porque ele pediu ao ceifador que apagasse suas memórias), parte o coração. Ele a ama e só quer passar a eternidade ao lado dela.Ansiosa pelos próximos episódios. Sinto que, a cada cena, o drama vai melhorando e trazendo novos horizontes para o gênero.
