I’ve done so when needed, but I don’t find either much different for what I usually use the site for- Both equally suck with typing comments (the number of typos I have edit to fix because my auto correct doesn’t work here is frustrating at times). I go to the website when I want to see something the app won’t show me- photos, episode info, etc… It’s rare for me though.

Same!

OMG 💀🤭

If I may respectfully disagree with you on some points-

-I thought the blood stain looked rust colored.

-In the zombie shows I’ve seen (albeit only a few), and the zombie movie clips people have posted that somehow made it onto my algorithm, show zombies mostly wandering aimlessly until “activated” by the presence/scent of living creatures- then they are all athletes or something, driven by their animalistic instinct to feed. Swarming on the living like a hive of murder hornets.

- A house in the woods would likely be more safe than a city because there wills be less possibility to run into the mindlessly infected. Zombies tend to wander where they’ve died. Though they still have attacks for a wandering zombie frequently enough to have traps, which our ML checks pretty often. I would likely try to find a more secluded safe house like this if I somehow miraculously survived the initial outbreak of a zombie apocalypse. The number of attackers and the frequency of attacks would be greatly diminished.

-Food being left out in the open is likely because those who attempted to take it were turned into zombies by the high population of zombies in and around the school building. Most survivors probably decided to avoid it because of the population of zombies there. It’s the same building he lost is older brother in, and there were quite a few hidden around the maze of the school. They were in what looked like the student snack store of the school- which does exist irl. I mostly saw them grabbing jun/processed food, but still food. Survivors can’t be choosers and all that. I doubt there’s much produce and fresh food left, if at all, at this point. Tgey would benefit from planting seeds if the could find any and had enough access to usable water- which is not clear at this point. Aftee 6 months, most utility plans would likely be inoperable or inefficiently supporting the designated cities/towns (downside to finding a safe place in the woods- potable water would probably need to be sourced at some point).

Though I do agree that the likelihood of there being liquor in a school is a bit of a stretch. I believe it’s against the law in ‘most’ countries to sell liquor on the campus of any K-12 school because, well, minors and all that. Maybe it’s a translation error in the subtitles, though…?

And the “mouth to mouth” was not CPR even if you were squinting while watching…

Just some thoughts your comment made me think of.

Tomorrow is so far away

I’m the opposite. While I loved Train to Busan, I avoid most horror dramas, especially zombie dramas. But aside from the walking dead (the makeup is done well here), I will be enjoying the story. I’ve already been doing the 10 second skips through some of the slashing and hacking scenes. Still enjoyable (this part is just for those who are like me who want to watch but just don’t “do” zombies).

This is assuming you’re using the website version instead of the app. The app is more limited with drama info compared to the website. 😊 I largely use the app.

Yup, as long as this doesn’t morphe into another ‘Lost to You’ non-ending (because wtf was that last episode?!!!), I think this will be another solid BL worth the hype of the trailer. Acting 👍🏽Cinematography 👍🏽Story👍🏽 Chemistry 👍🏽 I’m caught🎣.

2 new episodes tomorrow! (The trailers make me want all episodes released at once like Netflix usually does.)

That part

It’s still there for international at least (I’m in the US)

I enjoyed watching this drama. Though I have reached a point in my CDrama viewership where I watch in 2x speed sometimes and sometimes 10 sec skip through the mundane scenes (you can kinda get a feel for when it’s not gonna cost you
to do this after about a dozen or two dramas under your belt- and I’ve seen WAY more than that)- it didn’t mean this drama lacks in good storytelling and acting. The hero’s arc of Wu Geng/Gou is quite engaging. He goes through A LOT. Like, every episode our guy is going through it. But you know the saying that pressure turns coal into diamonds…that’s his story. And Ren Jia Lun does a great job portraying this trial by fire and growth with unwavering selflessness and conviction. His mantle is heavy, but he bears it.

Little
things made me go 🤔. The hair on our guys sometimes had me wanting to go back in time and fire the hair stylist because wtf is that hot mess?!

Overall, I enjoyed this quite a bit. 8.5/10 (only because I wanted a different ending- just a personal choice, and because sometimes the CGI was a little too obvious in terms of fakeness that it became a bit of a distaction for me).

Stand alone

Yeah. School just started today… *sigh* Only 179 more days to go…

I think Red means more than evil. James doesn’t explain what each color means, so it could mean more than evil or malicious. I think red is more complex than the show is revealing for now. I feel like it represents the strongest of emotions. Just a theory, though. I need to binge the book before next week. Or just suffer in the angst of waiting for a slow reveal each week.

Red is definitely a plot point in the story. it keeps popping up.

I’m sitting here just pondering it. Maybe neither one is actually medically colorblind. Maybe the color blindness is actually a reference to Ken’s lack of color in his aura- at least, from James’ perspective. I rewatched the scene where James is drunk and pointing out the rainbow fish to Ken to identify. Though we see Ken looking at a gray fish, he correctly identified its color. He identified as being medically colorblind, but I wonder if it’s just a cover for his Nour identity. Like, if he is undying, he has a loss of vibrancy in his life. Colors are desaturated because being a Nour is a lifeless and depressing existence (as evidenced by his repeated attempts to end it over the centuries). I imagine reds may be the first to fade over time- as it holds vitality in its symbolism across many cultures. I wonder if he will start to see colors more boldly, especially reds and oranges. The more he opens up to James, the more the world become more vibrant to him.

He’s definitely bold.

Oh absolutely. He’s a real one for sure!

I can’t see anything happening with the teacher until they graduate. That would make me, an actual
high school teacher, concerned.

I vibe with this explanation. I’m sure episode 5 starts with James and Ken talking about these colors in some way. The sudden backtrack has me feeling some whiplash though.

My theory was that, since James is colorblind to red, maybe Ken’s aura looks gray but is actually red. If that doesn’t represent emotion but their connection, that would make sense. He still wouldn’t be able to see red in the car, but the added greed and yellow would make sense for how Ken is thawing towards the person who is his soulmate. Ken lowering his walls for James, despite all he’s been through for hundreds of years makes sense.

I really want to find and read the book now…

EDIT: I got it that James is not colorblind. Thanks.

Damn it. What TF does GREEN mean? Everything was cool (hot) until GREEN showed up…

Serizawa has liked him for a while- I bet even before the eraser. I bet we find out he noticed Suzuki and found himself interested before they were even classmates.
