Hot take, but i started appreciating him as an actor after death's game. I considered him good enough for rom coms but that particular drama really brought out a lot of his potential. He is a great actor nonetheless.

You'll know them soon after dw. A little tip- notice who is just existing and giving reactions.

Lol agreed. That's the reason why I didn't name drop them.

im lowkey more excited about the actors than the drama itself.

such a visual treat my god. can't wait to see them together

there are a few filler members in this show, with absolutely nothing to add to the show. i will not name them, but I think you know who i mean. as much as i love the production, the cast dynamics are the weakest thing overall. i've watched a fair number of reality shows to tell the difference. to my disappointment, the ques are much easier than i expected, and the lack of analytical tasks is honestly surprising. i thought there would be more challenging tasks. that said, the effort put in by the art or pr team in designing the sets is admirable. visually, the show is very well done and honestly one of the few things forcing me to continue watching. i personally prefer s1 over this one. its not bad, just underwhelming.

okay the promotion for this drama is way better than newtopia. i know the streaming sites were different, but it's still better promoted by the creators.

I love how the hearing loss is not the main focus of the story. In other dramas with a similar plot, the narrative usually revolves around the disability. I think it is more important to show that a disability is not your entire personality and that your life should not revolve around just one thing. You can still enjoy your life with it. Here, it has been handled beautifully so far because the hearing impairment is not ignored, but it is also not overemphasized.

i like this poster more

i have a history of not liking multiple love interests in a drama, so i'm not sure if this will be any different. but i'll watch it for the main leads. i just hope they don't compromise the main lead's screen time and interaction for the sake of cameos. on top of that, there are only 10 eps, so it all depends on the pacing and development.

i was genuinely surprised by the plot twist in ep2. even though there are quite a few plot holes, i think we'll get to the bottom of them as we g deeper into the show. so far, it's been such a pleasant watch. the ost, the acting(especially the micro expressions from the ml), the chemistry, and the color palette have been absolute standouts. i initially doubted the ml's capabilities, but i'm relieved that he proved me wrong. my expectations have increased even more now. i think it might be the best show airing right now.

I can't pin point exactly what is off about this drama but if I had to, I'll say the awkward pauses between the dialogues. That makes all of it feel so unnatural and forced. Plus, the lack of bgm is also bothering me here. The acting is also amateurish and stiff. The production however was least of my concerns when the direction was noticeably lacking.

Hardly. Like i said the only thing bothering me here is the childish presentation which could have been cute but instead comes across as cringey. I'm giving my opinion here. You can't have every comment to be positive, there is bound to be some criticism. I'm also sharing my criticism and that doesn't mean I'm discouraging other viewers here. Ironically enough my criticism is actually needed if someone else wants to know the other side of the coin. That's how comment section works. It's a constructive criticism not unwillingness to support an artist or a creator.

you mean learn to enjoy a fictional show that is actually GOOD? im not taking anything seriously, infact i couldn't be more lenient with my standards here. if only the writers knew how to build a character instead making them look like 5 year olds in the name of lightheartedness or comedy, i wouldn't be getting the ick right now. this has nothing to do with being yourself bcz no one out there behaves like this with anyone at the ripe age of adulthood. even if they did there were so many better ways to execute it. but then again, to each their own. something i find cringe doesn't have to be universally true.

at first, it was somewhere between cute and cringey, but now it’s just annoyingly immature and uncomfortable to watch. just stop my guy. what are u doing, acting like a toddler(lowkey worse)? idk when they confused golden retriever energy with… whatever this is. ugh. also, give qin something to actually act, bcz all he’s doing is reciting two lines with a poker face.

well this was pretty embarrassing

This was so good. And the CHEMISTRY? OH. MY. GOD.

everything else aside, lin feng song is objectively one of the best actors in the bl industry. i can see him landing bigger projects in the future.

duang bbygirl you're doing too much😭 there's a thin line between cute and cringe, and he's comfortably in the latter category, especially when he's with qin. oddly enough he is still so lovable.

do you hate your readers because most of them are emotional as hell. you're NOT recovering from any of these im telling ya.
