Those two glasses were way too close to the edge of that table.

I am so seated for this. Kinda glad there's folks who have decided not to watch this at all. Nothing beats knowing your preference and sticking to it.

Going to be a lot of unfilled silences in the first few eps because Dao doesn't talk or lot or "do" a lot. Then there is Arthit who cannot be still unless he's asleep.

Wataru doesn't seem to understand that the friendship he so much cherishes was powered by the romantic bond they shared, though unacknowledged.

I like her styling. The colours are pretty, the clothes fit. She looks cute without trying too hard. Ankle-length dresses are not old-fashioned. Plus it matches her character. She's reserved.

Because people really do stupid shit like that. If they made dramas with the stupidest shit a lot of women did in these kinds of situations, you'd convulse. Reality is in fact stranger than fiction. Or maybe I've just lived and interacted too long with the real world and seen too much.

She's a people-pleaser who hasn't dated in four years and is suddenly faced with the reality of being an older woman in a relationship market that favours youth. It's less desperation than pressure. She'll calm down a little after a while.

Brought me to tears.

Rated this a 9/10 cos it's beautiful, and it made me feel. And for the acting. Moon Sangmin is shaping into one of the finer actors of his generation. He holds his own beside more experienced actors, and that's something. Byung Yohan was his usual exceptional self. I haven't seen much of Go Ah Sung's work but now I have a reason to.

In ep 1 is Sang-yi wearing the outfit Key picked for him?

"Am I supposed to celebrate your glorious ennui?" is such a beautiful sentence and I shall be using it henceforth.

Pause to come say the seniors are bloody idiots, Standing there quietly while Qin and Duang get insulted after going to all that effort to get them onboard. "It all worked out" my butt.

This is actually quite good. Watched bits and pieces with a friend and mostly followed the story. It has its faults but for a Thai BL, that's par the course.

I'm glad he got to experience this character and work with more seasoned actors and with a dialect coach. It's the smart actor who knows they don't have to be the lead every time and carry the drama. Especially one so young. It's all a part of growth. He has a lot of promise, and I look forward to seeing him in future roles.

You have answered my question and I can now look out for these things if I rewatch the intro. GenAI is rotten at its core, uses up too much of the earth's natural resources, is backed by oligarchs and was developed using the work of thousands of people who did not give permission or receive compensation. And it is copying from more than just the big studios. Pick a random semi-popular artist and ask GenAI to create in that style and it will replicate it. Your assumption of my ignorance based on a clearly articulated questions is silly.

And I am in fact blind to these differences (unless they're super obvious) and refuse to accept anything I see these days as either artist-made or AI until I have definitive information (for good reason). It's not a poor choice of words. Its me knowing my limitations and stating them.

FYI, GenAI use is treated as the next big tech/creative frontier in Korea and there is very little pushback so corporations like TVN will continue to use it if it saves them a buck. Capitalism doesn't give a fuck about artistic integrity.

This is real good so far.

Didn't even know this was a remake and went into it blind. Kind of saw the end coming but it still left me teary-eyed. It was beautifully told and poignant. Worth the watch. And of course the leads were super believable as their characters. Good actors both.

It's so nice to see the actors doing so well in their careers.

I'm sorry you disliked it. I loved it. I enjoy dramas that have plenty of "drama" and don't require too much of my mind to process the plot but has shock value and hateful characters. MMH actually brought me out of a kdrama slump, I liked it that much. And Perfect Marriage Revenge.

I am a little blind about such things and that intro looked like a perfectly simple animation. What marks it as GenAI? Because I followed the link and nobody actually mentions any markers. Also want to mention that I work in the creative field and the number of artists and writers who are being accused of using GenAI for work they did themselves is increasing at an alarming rate so I have to interrogate GenAI claims.
