Just some musings after watching up through Ep 5. (Well, maybe some thinking out loud because I don't want there to be a sad ending to this story.)
We know from the rules of fiction and film that when certain elements of a story are introduced at the beginning they usually factor in at the end. Two of the big elements here so far are (1) Sang Ha telling Jin Won about the place he always goes when he's happiest or saddest, and (2) the loan sharks threatening Sang Ha if he doesn't pay up soon. There's also the big marathon that Jin Won will be running in, which might end up representing the choice that he must make.
(I don't know what "work" the thugs want Sang Ha to do to pay off his debt, but it's possible that's also one of those foreshadowing plot devices.)
Anyway, my thinking right now is that Sang Ha will get beat up by the thugs (not really a spoiler since there's a glimpse of that in the trailer). He will be badly hurt and go to hide at his favorite healing spot so that Jin Won and others won't get distracted and concerned over what condition he's in.
Jin Won will be preparing for the big marathon -- maybe it will be the actual day of the marathon -- and Sang Ha won't show up. Maybe there will be a hint of what has happened to him that causes Jin Won to become really concerned. He'll be faced with going to find him vs. participating in the marathon.
He'll choose to go find him, because he will finally realize what feelings he has for Sang Ha. He will rush to where Sang Ha is hiding. They will have their moment of reunion and commitment, and somehow Jin Won will still be able to run the marathon and (of course) win the race.
Tbh, I tried making predictions for how WYEL would end and got it wrong because the writer is far more clever than I am, so I fully expect that I'm wrong here too. But these thoughts are my way of easing the fear that the outcome won't be happy. MODC has forever traumatized me into worrying that a series that starts out cute will break our hearts again.
Korean bl just hits different like Idk it has a different more deep love vibe and the entire process of falling…
Yup. It's like they stroll out onstage and say, 'Here's how it's done -- oh, and by the way, we'll do it in just a handful of little 10-minute episodes.'
I think they will no longer allow community subs, the feature that lets anyone add subs to any video. The owner…
No, whoever uploads any video can add subtitles to it, since they did the upload (even if they're not legally the owner of the content.)
What you won't be able to do is add subtitles to a video that someone else has uploaded. I don't know how often this is a source of subs, because it's not always clear to me whether subs were added by the uploader or by a kind youtuber who wants to help out the community.
I saw a post on YouTube that says they will no longer provide English subtitles does any1 know if does this mean…

Loving this so much! I think the 'Cupid's arrow' moment is one of the cutest things I've ever seen in a BL.
But I have to admit that I'm a little confused by Jin Won climbing into bed with Sang Ha.
Was Jin Won so sleepy that he thought that Sang Ha's apartment was his own (which would explain his irritation over them both having the same lock code)? When they woke up the next morning both of them were surprised.
This and 'Mr Heart' are my favorite BL series running right now -- the ones where I'm most eager to know what will happen next.
This one is setting up the different couple dynamics very well and I like the acting and production values. Some cute guys too. ^_^
The pace is a little slow. With all the extended silences it reminds me of 'Until We Meet Again', and sure enough it's the same director. I'm not going to complain too much, except to say that if it moved a little faster they'd be able to fit more 'story' into the series overall.
What a breath of fresh air after sh*t like 'My Day'. There's nothing like Thai BL. You can complain about the blue shorts and engineering students but I'd much rather watch a series like this than a cynical cash grab like that.
I tend to disagree that he truly liked Kim Hana in A-teen. For me the character was notable for his tendency to manipulate and a general lack of sincerity, despite putting up a charming front.
It's been a while since I saw the series, though, so maybe I should take another look.

I like the 'enemies to lovers' trope most of all.
Did they watch the same drama as us?
