Feelgood drama if you like the Main Cast
This is a bit as "The best thing", a modern love story about growing together as a pair and building a live.The story is circling around the love story itself, without big major drama and twists and so it's a really nice, calm watch if you like the main actors.
As i like both actors, especially Song Weilong, i enjoyed it a lot and liked it, but as the drama has not an outstanding story or stunning visual affects its for me a solid 8,5.
Nevertheless it was one of those dramas is watched in one peace without on holds.

“Surely Tomorrow… But Not Today”
I had high expectations for *Surely Tomorrow*, especially with Park Seo Joon returning in a more emotional role. Unfortunately, this drama turned out to be a real disappointment for me. Despite a polished atmosphere and a promising cast, I never managed to emotionally invest in the story.The relationship between Lee Gyeong-do (Park Seo Joon) and Seo Ji-woo (Won Ji-an) is supposed to be the heart of the narrative, but it left me indifferent. Their breakup, built on unspoken words and differing life choices, lacks real impact. Everything feels too smooth, too restrained, as if the drama deliberately refused to confront its emotions. Conflicts are never fully addressed, making their separation frustrating rather than moving.
Park Seo Joon does what he can with the material given to him. His performance is fine, sometimes subtle, but his character keeps going in circles. His struggles become repetitive and eventually tiresome. As for Seo Ji-woo, she could have been a strong character, but the story reduces her too often to her past romance, without giving her any meaningful personal development.
Their reunion, which I had been looking forward to, ended up being one of the drama’s biggest weaknesses for me. It lacks tension, confrontation, and, above all, emotional sincerity. Important discussions are avoided, wounds are barely explored, and the final decisions fail to generate any strong emotion or satisfaction.
The slow and sometimes empty pacing doesn’t help either. Many scenes drag unnecessarily, giving the impression that the drama is trying to fill time rather than tell something meaningful. In the end, I felt no deep attachment to the characters and no genuine emotion.
In summary, *Surely Tomorrow* is a drama I did not enjoy. It’s not disastrous, but it’s bland, predictable, and too cautious to leave a lasting impression. Even Park Seo Joon’s presence wasn’t enough to save a story that sorely lacked audacity and emotional depth.
A viewing I will have no trouble forgetting.

Rom-com perfection
This drama contains everything I want in a rom-com. Feisty FL=yes, every episode made me laugh=yes, romance was the main theme=yes, support cast were quirky and fun=yes, more than one love interest=yes, plenty of dominant, slightly pushy ML's=yes, leads have excellent, sizzling chemistry=yes, nice kiss scenes (no fish kisses)=yes, happy ending=yes, keeps you guessing which ML the FL will pick=yes, had me squealing like a fangirl once or twice=yes, lovely male eye candy=yes, and finally, the drama has limited filler (flash-backs to scenes to previous episodes), or is overly long=yes.....perfect length for a short attention span. The only thing that pushed it down a half of a star, was not enough passionate skin-ship. It is a nice quick watch, that you can binge on a rainy weekend and will leave you smiling.Was this review helpful to you?
when friends become your home
The amount of times I cried is surprising because I expected this to be a very lighthearted drama. It still was, but the issues the characters faced were realistic and believable. I love the main couple so much and they deserve each other. i do wish we got more of the unexpected side couple. I adored their character developments going into adulthood too and it was perfectly shown at the ending scenes with their younger selfs. I had an issue with QiQi due to her being shallow and not a great friend, but I am glad she is going toward the path she wants for herself. It gave me such a nostalgia vibe and makes me scared of adulthood. I know the problems the characters faced could become mine too, but I should embrace the present no matter what becomes of my future. I want to find my own home like they did. <3Was this review helpful to you?
Serious Topics Meet Safe Storytelling
Before starting, this looked like a drama I would love: found family, case-to-case structure, emotional stories, and an actor I enjoy watching. And while I do think it’s a decent watch and I don’t regret starting it, it didn’t fully hit the way I expected.One thing I noticed is that the show often starts cases very strong, targeting serious social topics that really should be talked about, and the first half of each case usually gets me emotionally invested. But then, instead of following through with that same seriousness, the second half often pulls back into unrealistic, overly dramatic or convenient resolutions that avoid dealing with the real systemic problems. It feels like the drama wants the emotional impact of heavy topics, but not the responsibility of fully committing to them.
The show tries to sell found family, but I personally never fully felt it. There was always someone hiding something, people being annoyed with the MC, and even major conflicts later on that made the group feel more like coworkers than a real family.
I’m all for comedic relief in heavy shows, but the comedy here is often too over-the-top and cartoonish for my taste. It sometimes broke immersion and reminded me that I’m watching a drama instead of pulling me into the story. The same goes for the constant “villain of the week” antagonists who act unrealistically in court, it simplifies complex social issues into just fighting bad people instead of bad systems.
One thing that personally disappointed me was how carefully the show handled LGBT topics. There were supportive visuals and moments, which I appreciated, but the show never actually centered an LGBT person’s real legal struggle as a case. It felt more like symbolic support than real storytelling, which as an LGBT viewer felt a bit safe and surface-level.
Overall, I think Pro Bono has a strong premise and good intentions, and some moments really work emotionally. But for me, the combination of exaggerated comedy, unrealistic resolutions, and shallow character exploration keeps it from becoming as impactful as it could’ve been. Still a decent watch, just not the emotional hit I was hoping for.

SURELY TOMORROW
I am so glad I found this thread because for all twelve episodes, I felt like I was being gaslighted into thinking that the FL and the ML are not inside a toxic, emotionally abusive relationsship.I mean broken FLs are mostly adorable but to make this FL depressed, abused child, druggie, suicidal, got married to a random drug addict, and ghosts the ML for the stupidest reasons and then comes back when it's convenient, does not give the ML anything but only recieves, letting the ML suspend his life just to help her with all her problems? Now they're trying to redeem the woman in an episode or two?
I mean what kind of person leaves a man twice with the shallowest excuses. And the writer really thought ahe would still be loveable. Most of the audiences are women and more than half of them had been trapped in abusive relationships that they worked so hard to get out of.
And to use the talented Park Seo Jun to gaslight the audience into thinking that this is a fated and healthy relationship. I mean PSJ, I know his character in Gyeongseong creature effectively longed for the FL for 75 years but it was an effin fantasy. This one is supposed to be built on reality. What with all the celibate MLs?
And please don't say that Gyeongdo chose to be a virgin since college because that's what the show has inferred. Is it biplogically, physically, emotionally possible for any man to do that?
And don't get me started with the FL, where is the damn shame? Leaving a man crying his heart out with alcoholism. And she didn't know it will affect him when she left just when he needed her while his father is in the hospital? She's the poster girl for emotional abuse and I don't like that she is the heroine of thia story, not the villain who the ML needs to move on from to find his true love.
And to add insult to injury, she is now the one pining and chasing on the ML right after she got dumped. Typical manipulative moves of a narciccist when her supply tries to leave her.
I mean, does the writer even read up about narcs and abusive behaviour? Surely she is well-read. And surely she researched this character.
I mean Gyeongdo was doing fine in Malaga and has no plans to return just yet. The writer then k*lls off the friend who stayed with the ML all those years he was recovering from the stonewalling he got from the FL. Mind you, Choi Woo Shik is the name of Park Seo Jun's best friend in real life. No wonder PSJ's acting was personal in the funeral scene. This writer is demented.
The friends and parents are all enablers for letting their loved one still have a relationshop with this FL. Even in the ending, Gyeongdo agreed when the FL said he might not want kids because he is afraid they will end up like her.
I am uncontrollably irked right now at the sheer st*upidity of the story. And how unbelievable PSJ accepted the script. Is the FL the kind of woman you want your friend or family to end up with? I hope not. All his other characters were kick-ass.
FL sucks the life out of Gyeongdo and when she's around Gyeongdo loses his dreams. His Malaga scenes looked really good even if he is practically a broke waiter because there is no FL baggage that he is suspending his life for. It is the FLs dramas he had to take a break from not his own.
What I am mad about is for the FLs behaviour to be dismissed as cute and healthy. Isn't kdrama supposed to give us life lessons? She is a glaring example of narciccism, c'mon.
I really hope PSJ learns from this and become more discerning of the scripts he chooses. Right now people are calling his character a door mat, and the more he sacrifices for the FL, the more it is interpreted negatively. Not all sacrificial love are healthy. Some are toxic and harmful.
Whenever I see the FL pouting on screen because she didn't get her way, I want to go punch a wall. All her struggles are mostly self-inflicted. She makes decisions without even caring what Gyeongdo will feel because he will still be there when she gets back anyway.
I hope instead this kdrama becomes a warning to women and also to men to learn how to recognize abuse when they see it, detach, and move on accordingly with a healthy partner.
Seo Ji Woo had no business getting into a relationship when what she needed was therapy.

Meaningful Story, Unsatisfying Execution
I liked When It Rains, It Pours and really appreciated the serious topic it explored. The story about love, sex, and emotional needs felt very real to me. I deeply understood Hagiwara — for me, love and sexual connection can’t be separated, so his struggle made complete sense.Still, I felt unsatisfied rather than disappointed. My biggest issue was the rushed ending. I personally don’t enjoy when the main couple reconnects only in the last minutes of the final episode. The story needed more time for emotional processing, choice, and responsibility. One extra episode — or even more time in the finale — could have made the ending far more emotionally fulfilling.
Another point that held me back emotionally was Sei’s portrayal. I understand that the character is meant to be reserved, and I usually have no problem connecting with quiet or emotionally restrained characters. I don’t need exaggerated expressions — I can read emotions through the eyes alone. Unfortunately, in this case, I couldn’t feel Sei’s inner emotions through the actor’s eyes, which made it hard for me to fully believe the depth of his feelings. As a result, the chemistry between the leads felt unbalanced to me.
The cheating aspect was complicated. I usually dislike cheating, but I understood the situation here. So I was not against of it. However, I would have preferred a different approach: watching them slowly fall in love while still in their relationships, then choosing to end those relationships themselves — not because they were exposed, but because they wanted to be honest and start a new life together. That sense of responsibility and agency would have made the story much more powerful for me.
Overall, it’s a good and meaningful series with a happy ending, but the rushed conclusion and emotional distance kept it from fully satisfying me.

If Bruce Wayne was a judge
Appreciate the healthy dose of action, great OST, and less common dystopian genre. Pretty on the nose in regards to the "virus" being that this released in 2021 ;P 😏 lolSome unexpected twists. Some unfortunately realistic(and depressing) takes on the judicial system, politics, etc.
Characters: The MVP...the Legend...
~~Lawyer Go! :-D Perhaps not everyone's choice of favorite character, but this guy was an unbothered king the entire show(the few times he's there) and had more self preservational skills than the rest of these fruit loops Lol
Judge Kang- ever entertaining and always scheming ; P -has a thing for choking people and bath robes. ~I lost count of how many different bath robes he has worn.
Rich and charismatic by day✔;
genius vigilante by night✔
Has gothic mansion on cliff-face with an elevator✔
Reckless driving✔
Brooding✔
He's clearly K-Batman and you can't convince me otherwise.
Everybody else: not gonna lie, there was some serious facepalming going on in the third act (and a lot of crying😒), but I powered through! Overall happy(mostly?) and tidy ending.
-Kinda has a webtoon adaptation feel to it ,though I don't believe that to be the case.

Great drama about a female warrior from a warrior family
I thoroughly enjoyed this drama because of the action and the beautiful sword/spear dances and battles all throughout. i enjoyed the theme of the warrior families that all worked toward and were devoted to fighing for peace for their nation. The romance was a good part of it but it was more of a backdrop to the main story. I also enjoyed how their romance and love for each other was expressed through their efforts to do what must be done for the nation so they can come back to a peaceful land where their love can be at peace.Was this review helpful to you?

Sweet romance between two actors I love: Song Wei Long and Zhao Jin Mai
PLOT: FL had a crush on a brilliant college student. Despite her rival (FL2 = mean girl), she confesses her feelings and is rejected. After graduating, she goes to work at a photovoltaic company, where ML (Li Yu Sen) becomes the deputy director. After a rocky start and a few flings, they finally make peace and become a couple (a strong, trusting couple, capable of overcoming past hurts). The competition (economic and familial) is fierce.[University period: Eps. 1-4]
[Working together: Eps. 4-36]
[Courting the FL: Ep. 13]

+++ CL with Song Wei Long and Zhao Jin Mai, delightful, magical. The ML is a Green Forest (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)

+++ Coherent story, psychologically realistic (which is rare).
+++ Effective, well-executed direction (sets, costumes, lighting, framing, etc.) with a satisfying ending.
### You have to be patient because the FL (and all the characters in this series) remains focused on ML2 for a long time (much less beautiful than the ML) but above all, UNBEARABLE!!
### A touch of Chinese patriotism/nationalism, regarding technological advancements and the challenges of competing in a fierce global market (taxes, product defamation, etc.).
=> Excellent series, truly, thanks to a well-written story and fantastic CL. I'll rewatch it in a while :)

A team fighting for people not just verdict
Pro Bono ends as a thoughtful, emotionally grounded legal drama that understands its greatest strength isn’t flashy courtroom wins, but the people caught between the law and real life. From cases like Kaya’s and Elijah’s to the final arc, the series consistently asked uncomfortable questions about power, exploitation, immigration, family betrayal, and who the justice system truly serves. Rather than simplifying issues into clear-cut right and wrongs, the drama leaned into moral grey areas, showing how laws can fail the most vulnerable even when they’re technically followed.What truly elevates Pro Bono is its character-driven storytelling. Kang Da-Wit’s journey from a guarded, pragmatic lawyer to someone willing to risk his career for ethical justice felt earned and layered, especially as his past and internal conflicts came to light. Gi-Ppeum and the rest of the team weren’t just support characters; they embodied different philosophies of justice, which created meaningful tension within the group.
The drama smartly showed that doing good work doesn’t always mean agreeing and that trust, once fractured, takes more than a courtroom victory to rebuild.
By the finale, Pro Bono leaves a lasting impression not because everything is neatly resolved, but because it stays true to its message: justice is a process, not a guarantee. The ending emphasizes growth, accountability, and systemic awareness over triumph, making the drama feel mature and realistic. It may not satisfy viewers looking for dramatic twists or romance-heavy payoffs, but for those who appreciate socially conscious storytelling with heart, Pro Bono stands out as a quietly powerful and meaningful legal K-drama.

I will be the Outlier - I Did not like it
My rating of the two episodes I watched 2/10.I don't drop many series but I had to drop this one. First, the plot is extremely simple. It is relying very heavily on the trope of the evil boss. Bully childhood friend who actually liked the girl. Frenemies. Destiny. Just a lot of tired tropes. I know sword like eyebrows were a thing not even all that long ago but it was a bit distracting that all the male lead characters had these eyebrows I could not ignore. Being literally allergic to tears is a really hard sell. If they had tied it in as maybe some kind of mixed physical and psychological disease maybe. And the accidental kiss was one of those super ridiculous and unbelievable scenarios where if your lips came together like that it wouldn't be sensual it would hurt. Pancake kiss. That goes on forever. I would have had to get a subscription to watch the latter episodes as it wasn't available on virtually every other platform and I didn't care enough about it in those first two episodes to be willing to pay for it. Too cheesy and just not my cup of tea.
Synopsis:
Love is Sweet (also known as Half Honey Half Hurt) is a 2020 Chinese romantic comedy drama blending workplace rivalry, childhood sweethearts, and heartfelt romance. It has a mix of fluffy romance, steamy chemistry, office politics, and emotional layers—perfect for fans of sweet, enemies-to-lovers vibes with a touch of corporate drama.
Total Episodes: 36
Runtime per Episode: Approximately 45 minutes
Major Characters
Yuan Shuai (Luo Yunxi) — The sharp, undefeated "God of War" in investment banking at MH firm. A seemingly arrogant and teasing boss, he's actually a secretly devoted childhood friend who's harbored a 10-year crush on the female lead. He "bullied" her as kids to toughen her up due to her rare tear allergy, but he's soft and protective underneath—switching from professional wolf to adorable boyfriend mode once feelings surface.
Jiang Jun (played by Bai Lu) — A bright, idealistic young woman with dual master's degrees in economics and psychology. She leaves her philanthropy job to join the cutthroat MH investment firm to honor her late father's wish. Empathetic, resilient, and high-EQ, she navigates office schemes and rivalry with sharp judgment. She's allergic to tears (a unique vulnerability), often seen as soft but proves strong and clever, turning from "rookie" to powerhouse.
Du Lei (played by Gao Hanyu) — Yuan Shuai's intense rival from rival firm GE, excelling in investment banking, car racing, and (initially) romance pursuits. Scarred by a tough past, he's calculating and willing to bend rules for success, but he develops genuine feelings that complicate his schemes.
Xu Li (played by Xiao Yan) — Jiang Jun's loyal, justice-driven best friend who works at a convenience store. She's bubbly, prioritizes love over career, and boldly pursues her crush, bringing light-hearted energy and strong friendship support to the main story.
Li Xiaochuan (played by Riley Wang) — Yuan Shuai's tech-genius cousin and app developer. Serious, hardworking, and hilariously oblivious to romance at first, he slowly warms up thanks to Xu Li's persistence, creating one of the drama's sweetest secondary couples.
Qiao Na (played by Zhao Yuanyuan) — The perfectionist vice president at MH, a "female God of War" who demands excellence. She has unrequited feelings for Yuan Shuai but handles them maturely, adding depth to the workplace dynamics.
Linda (played by An Weiling) — A powerful executive director at GE with her own ambitions and insomnia struggles. She plays a key antagonistic role in the corporate intrigue, often prioritizing self-interest in the high-stakes investment world.

A story shaped by rivalry and affection, brushed with the soft shadow of the supernatural
Head 2 Head slipped into the Thai BL landscape without fanfare, almost quietly, yet with a peculiar ability to linger. At first glance, it presents itself as another familiar university-set enemies-to-lovers story. As the episodes unfold, however, the series reveals a gentler, deeper ambition: to speak of love as a conscious choice, of futures weighed down by uncertainty, and of the quiet terror of losing someone before learning how to hold on. It is a story shaped by rivalry and affection, brushed with the soft shadow of the supernatural.Its premise is modest but steady. Jerome and Jinn grow up locked in competition, children of close families who, without intent, allow shared warmth to harden into rivalry. Time moves forward, yet the pattern remains. As university students in the same program, they continue circling each other through taunts, challenges, and sharp words that often mask something more tender beneath the surface. The narrative shifts when an accident forces proximity, and fractures entirely when Jerome begins to see Jinn’s future in his dreams, visions of loss, injury, and the looming presence of death. What once felt like youthful noise gradually settles into something heavier and more deliberate.
The series finds its strongest footing in the space between its two leads. Sea and Keen do not rely on grand romantic declarations; instead, they let silence, timing, and restraint carry the weight. Jerome and Jinn move around each other like celestial bodies, drawn together by forces they barely understand. Their arguments feel charged, their distance temporary, their returns inevitable. The evolution from rivalry to intimacy unfolds without rupture, allowing love to emerge not as a twist, but as a quiet realization.
When Head 2 Head darkens its tone, it often does so with surprising restraint. Jerome’s visions are not shocks meant to jolt the viewer, but slow accumulations of dread. Fear does not scream; it lingers. It settles into glances held too long, words left unsaid, and the suffocating weight of knowledge carried alone. Jerome’s silence becomes its own form of sacrifice, revealing that the true threat is not fate itself, but the loneliness of believing one must face it alone.
Some of the series’ most resonant moments arise when it allows emotion to breathe. The hospital scene following Jinn’s injury stands as one of its most quietly devastating passages. Here, love is stripped of fantasy and examined as responsibility. There is no glorification of martyrdom, only a fragile plea: that loving someone should not mean losing oneself. In moments like these, Head 2 Head steps beyond genre convention and touches something achingly human.
Music plays an essential role in shaping this emotional landscape. The soundtrack does not merely accompany the narrative; it echoes it. Each song feels like a private confession, mirroring the characters’ inner lives. “Turns Out It’s You” captures the emotional arc of the central couple with disarming honesty, while the solo tracks deepen the sense of internal conflict and longing. It is a score that listens as much as it speaks.
The supporting cast adds texture to this world, particularly through Van and Farm. Their storyline carries a rougher, more uneasy tone, exploring insecurity, emotional imbalance, and the quiet damage of self-sabotage. While the performances, especially Java’s, bring sincerity and emotional weight, the arc occasionally overstays its welcome, pulling focus from the main narrative. Even so, its presence signals a willingness to portray love not as ideal, but as fragile and, at times, deeply flawed.
On a technical level, Head 2 Head wavers. The direction excels in intimate exchanges and emotional warmth but struggles with pacing, particularly in its latter stretch. While earlier episodes take time to sit with discomfort and ambiguity, the final arc feels noticeably rushed. Conflicts that once unfolded with patience are resolved with surprising ease, as if emotional knots carefully tied over many episodes were suddenly undone in a single motion. The effect is less cathartic than disorienting, giving the impression that hard-won tensions dissolve almost by narrative convenience rather than emotional inevitability.
This haste is felt most sharply in how conversations and consequences are handled near the end. Where silence and avoidance once carried meaning, resolutions arrive too quickly, smoothing over fractures that seemed to demand deeper reckoning. The supernatural thread, though emotionally potent, also suffers here; without clearer internal rules, its final function leans toward a near-magical solution, weakening the sense of risk the series so carefully built earlier on.
Even with these shortcomings, the series leaves a lasting impression. Sea offers a layered portrayal of Jerome, balancing softness with restrained despair, while Keen gives Jinn a vulnerability that quietly breaks through his volatility. Together, they anchor the story, transforming simple exchanges into moments heavy with meaning, ensuring that even when the narrative stumbles, the emotional core remains intact.
In the end, Head 2 Head is neither flawless nor revolutionary. What it offers instead is sincerity. It understands comfort not as escape, but as recognition. Though its final steps may falter in their haste, the journey itself remains tender and thoughtful. The series closes not with perfect resolution, but with a lingering warmth, the sense of having shared something intimate and fragile, and the quiet wish that the story had trusted its own patience just a little longer.

Solution, we get Jerome medicated, and then we execute our second couple by firing squad
My life is over, and I have no idea how I am going to spend my Sundays now. This was a great show, and I would give my life to watch it again for the first time. I would give it a 9 out of 10! Okay, I am going to say what I liked, what I didn't, and then an episode overview.SEA KEEN BACK AT AGAIN BETTER THAN EVER. I loved them in only boo, and I am so glad that they have another show together. Something in the water because they both have grown into their features so much and look so fucking hot. They have great chemistry and also great acting skills. Just overall, I am so proud of them, and they brought this show to life. Surf and Java, I have seen Java before, but never Surf, and they did great in this. The character writing for them was a little meh, but they are good actors and have good fucking chemistry. Honorable mention, Javas fucking eyes. THEY ARE TO DIE FOR I SWEAR TO GOD, THEY ARE EVIL BUT GREAT. The plot was lowkey really interesting and fun, like I don't think I have seen something like it besides magical prophecy, and they did this differently, which was really fun. I enjoyed it a bunch and thought it was well done. I AM A SLUT FOR A GOOD RIVALS TO LOVERS SECRET CRUSH, HOLY MOLY. Great job. The start was good and reminded me of Bad Buddy, but different, so it was fun. This was beyond funny, holy fuck. A CRUSH THAT NEVER FADED PLOTLINE. OH MY GOD I WAS GONNA EXPLODE. Dead wife flashbacks. The flashlight bits were to die for and so cute, and they were trying to make Jinn be ungrateful, BUT IF MY PARENTS GOT BACK TOGETHER I WOULD ALWAYS BE FUCKING LIVID, HOLY FUCK. So good writing, besides, when he comes around, I would truly never. Good character development, though, with our main couple, nice to see. ALSO, THE MAIN COUPLE FREAKED THE FUCK OUT HOLY MOLY. Okay, that's it.
What I didn't like was Surf and Java's characters, just both overall poor writing, and I think that they could have done them better. Like, they had bullshit issues, and it just felt so irrelevant to the plot, and I wish they had connected it better, because the placement was very weird and awkward. HOW THE FUCK WAS HE ABLE TO TELL THE FUTURE? I AM SO LOST. Because I know that's why he crashed, but it felt very out of the blue, and I think they could have done that better. THE ENDING WITH THE DAD. I think that they should have done more with it. I know it shows character development that Jinn was okay with it, but they built to it for like 11 episodes, and then it just kind of happened, like in 3 minutes, and I'm like, dude, no way. I understand why they did it like that to show character development, but I wish they had done it better. Some of the plot felt kind of empty, so they could have done more with that. Random fucking side characters, bro shut the hell up. There's probably more, but that's all I could think of.
Overview time. " I miss them so much, and I don’t remember Sea being this sexy, cause what the fuck, and the side couple they’re so hot. Everyone is hot, and why can't we have hot freshmen like this at my university (I am a freshman btw lmao) im like da fuq." "Whoever did Sea's hair needs a raise because he looks FINE AS A MOTHER FUCKER." "SEAAAAA MY LORD HE JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER. THEY ARE IN LOVE, YOUR HONOR. OH NOOOO. NOW I HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER WEEK." "THAT LOOK FROM JAVA IS LETHAL. Oh my god. Dynamic change. I am obsessed and can't wait till next week. They need to strap me down, I'm so excited." "Nightmares every single time he sleeps, daydreams, or even zoning out, THIS WOULD BE AWFUL, SO FUCKING AWFUL. AND THEY ARE ALL ABOUT HIM." "I am trying to nitpick this show, but I am really enjoying it. I think the side couples placement feels a little awkward at times, but they are cute. I also think some of the background characters are so irrelevant, but that's fine bc they are hotttt. I think their chemistry got better and feels less awkward, but still has its charm, which is nice. I love them so much." "They’ve grown up so much, but on God, jinn is still that motherfucking kid who got punched on the basketball court for having a crush on him." "I think by his being able to tell the future, he’s messing with things he shouldn’t be messing with because he’s changing the route of how they fall in love. The outcomes are gonna be different so I think two things jinn needs to calm his ass down and just like think about stuff and Jerome needs to realize that you can’t mess with the future and expect everything to be the same because the main thing on why they were dating is that he never found the journal because he hid it really well and all this, but he went through and looked at that journal." There are levels to this. "Also, their kisses are still awkward as fuck, but it’s like a charming kind of awkward." "Also, their cuddling was really cute, and I’m low-key so obsessed with them. I can’t lie. Also, Sea has gorgeous, fucking lips." "J needs to be medicated, I swear. They connected those two parts very poorly." "Solution, we get Jerome medicated, and then we execute our second couple by firing squad." "I understand him with his dad because my dad also left my family, and if my parents go back together after I think it's been 10 years, I would be beyond angry. Genuinely holy fuck. But I also understand both sides. This flashlight shit is so cute." " Y’all are together because he loves you because he didn’t start having these dreams until after y’all got together, lock the fuck. If he didn’t love you, then he wouldn’t be going through all these motherfucking links to keep you safe. You are fucking dumb bitch. WHY ARE THEY SO FREAKED OUT? This scene would be so much more meaningful and like, oh my God, they’re talking out if this FREAK was not on top of him, get the fuck off my screen you gay bastards."
