There is so much talent on this show, it’s so fun to watch. And also my heart hurts for each contestant that doesn’t win and especially for those eliminated. It hurts each time you don’t achieve your dream. I wish all of these guys would form groups. They are all so great to watch. It’s always hard for me to only pick 7 when I vote.
I’ve been watching the YouTube subs when they’re uploaded, but can anyone tell me where you watch when it airs?
I don’t think it’s “hate” per se. More like realistically feeling let down with the second episode. I think many of us know this series is supposed to be silly, but it can still have a better story, more cohesive editing, and better acting. The characters have no closeness.
I don’t know. after episode 2, something’s missing.
Episode 2 was definitely a let-down from episode 1, which was cute, silly, and fun- even if it had flaws. But 2? I felt like I could skip 90% of it and still be fine. I did end up 10sec skipping through a lot of it. It was, as many have said, a let down. The one NC scene felt like a random throw in to try to keep people in who may otherwise drop after episode 2. But in this case, I don’t feel chemistry with the second MLs, or any real closeness between them, so it just comes out of left field. I don’t really feel any closeness with any of them at this point, to be honest. I definitely don’t believe anyone has a secret crush on anyone. I also think the age and cultural differences of the MLs is enough that they don’t need to add to it by throwing an possibly scheming 3rd party rich guy with sus motives. Seems a bit much for this little show to handle. I think instead of Sangmin being all innocent and wide-eyed like he has no thoughts, he would have been better written and more mature and mysterious/secretive and alluring. His character feels forced innocent and forced young, if that makes sense? I do still very much love Petch’s smile. His character does seem more appropriately 20 though.
Maybe episode 3 will be better? I understand they’re all new actors. Maybe as the show goes on they’ll catch their groove and be naturally closer so more comfortable? I still do very much appreciate the language barrier/differences being portrayed more realistically though.
Just watched the special episode. Come to Canada and get married!!!!I loved the special episode but it feels kind…
I need another season. And a movie like My Beautiful Man. This series was so good! You’re right that it does seem a little open-ended, like they may or may not continue the series. It would be great to see Minase come out to his friends and them accept him. And to his parents, especially his mom.
This series delivered everything I wanted. Amazing storytelling, soundtrack, character growth, and I love everything about it tbh. It’ll definitely be a multi-rewatch like some of my other super favorite Japanese BLs. I hope we see these to MLs in future BLs. Wiulsnt it be nice if they did like My Beautiful Man and made a S2 and movie? Then I’d be in heaven.
Earth is damn near 30 years old. Wabisabi is not giving him anything that he's not choosing himself. He doesn't…
I agree. Whenever I comment on my opinions on series in this app or other SNS platforms, I consider that the people themselves may see it and ensure I am not hurtful. Constructive criticism serves a purpose. I guess hating also does for the one doing the hating, but it’s also just unnecessary and makes the hater look bad imo. I hope Earth gets the chance to show his potential and grow elsewhere when his contract is up.
I agree with you. Who knew we needed this? But I thoroughly enjoyed myself watching it. So unserious and funny! These two new actors did well as MLs. 😊
OMG I’m glad I waited until all episodes were done because I can binge this. I just finished Episode 1 and I love it. Super cute. I’m actually impressed with Jay’s acting, especially since he’s so new. He really seems like his animal in many of his mannerisms. He’s very natural; he owns his role so the story flows. At least, so far. And Ben is the same. I love how he portrays Sun as all stalker-y with Junior. And the gulps when he’s near Junior like he’s hungry (but we don’t know what for yet- pretending not to know the synopsis for now 😉). I wish I didn’t have to go to work so I could keep watching the rest. Boo for Mondays.
sounds interesting kind of got a weak hero class feel
I thought so too until I watched the trailer. Instead of WHC1, maybe closer to The Uncanny Counter imo. Which was also a good series I think, so I’m still sat for this release 😊
LITA was your first BL? Damn, talk about directly jumping in the deep end of the pool. 🤭
😂 Yup! All because I stumbled on an IG reel of Payu and Rain being all lovey after the race when Rain calls himself Payu’s darling. The number of times I’ve rewatched LITA since then…
Among my first 5 also includes Tharntype and KinnePorche (my 2nd BL) 😂I’ve seen SO MANY HOURS of BLs since LITA a year ago. I definitely learned to swim and do water tricks within my first month 🤣
I absolutely agree. His movements and speech, including pauses and facial expressions, have definitely improved,…
Ah. That’s also true. But I also think he has improved a lot since his first series, which is inevitable and expected as they were both new actors with LITA. Skill plus effort reaps rewards. (I did and still love him as Payu because damn Payu was fire.) 🥰I do wonder if we will ever seen him as a vampire in Revamp…
