Dudes, that was not some virginal fucking last episode but let's not dwell on the past. Jet and Charn are so cute.
The siblings are top characters. Know how to go after what they want. Know how to accept rejection and keep it moving.
I am not enamoured with Namping's acting but he has this fragile beauty that a character like Paran would be immediately attracted to so the casting makes sense even though the acting confuses me a little. Is he doing that with his face cos he can't emote properly or because the director called for it? (This is not permission for anyone who doesn't like Nanping's acting to shit on it. I was very careful with how I phrased bit for a reason.)
I was curious how they would handle the NC scene between the mc but I have only one note. Open your mouth a little more Khem else that man will suck the lips off your face. The camera could have panned downwards so we get a peek of what they were both looking at but I guess this isn't that kind film. I tried to be respectful and not let my imagination fill in any gaps. Although I imagine Khem took one look and was like no fucking way I'm taking that today. (Did they really sleep on top of all that ahem?)
Sated Paran is too sexy for words. Has me thirsting over a 26/7/8yo fictional character. I am too old for this for goodness sakes. -_-
Venting students = it's a japanese cultural thing that when you're experiencing deep and conflicting emotions…
I hold space for mental conditions but I default more to parents being that way because they're assholes. And onscreen consequences aside, most dramas default to offering those asshole parents forgiveness or giving them some miraculous character development. I think it's a cultural thing where parents can never really be seen in a negative light. I can come from a similar culture that's always on the side of the parent so I see it.
I got the sense that the venting wasn't a completely bad thing. I just question why they get the right to do that after making her school life unbearable.
I'm impressed by the quality of the foreign actors. A lot of times in k-dramas it just feels like they pulled a random [white] person off the streets. This feels a little more thought went into the casting.
I don't mind people critiquing a drama I like. What gets my goat is that snotty know-it-all fake-bored attitude some viewers bring to shows they consider intellectually beneath them. This drama is entertaining as hell and you might not enjoy it as much as others but to dismiss it in its entirety? That takes some next-level joylessness. Go watch something niche and artistic for goodness sake and left the mainstream slop to us lesser humans.
I disliked the mistress character on sight. The actress has the character down pat.
"A candidate without approval from the US could never get elected..."
And this ladies and gents and others, is why the US is constantly meddling in other countries affairs. And would support despotic governments and the subjugation of citizens for their own ends. Just to be clear I am personally anti-world powers and love to see them being dragged for their politics, even in fiction.
please don't judge me ik it's just acting. its work. but i couldn't stop thinking about Ji Hyun's husband while…
Kinda hard not to judge when it's just a woman doing her job. Plus why is her husband the one getting sympathy? Kiss/sex scenes are hella hard for the actors themselves. And you have to act out all that intimacy with the whole crew looking on and a director ready to yell cut and have you do it all over again. All my sympathies are with the actors tbh.
This was such a good watch. But I cannot get over J-C-K-dramas almost always making a way out for truly despicable parents. We get that parents are human but you can't depict a parent as terrible and show us all the harm they have caused to their child and suddenly at the end there's a 360 in their attitude or something.
And I don't get why the students got to be upset and vent at her when they were all mostly horrible and disrespectful to her.
I had very strong opinions about this drama when it was airing. Found it cringey and basic and I dropped it. But every few months since then I come back to watch a few episodes because they're just so cute and fluffy and the chemistry is great. It's a good drama in the genre and sticks to the simple tropes and clichés which can be comforting in a sea of writers trying to twist romcoms into thrillers and whatnot.
So far (after ep 1): the biggest progress in their relationship is that Sorn finally started respecting Jun’s…
I think Jun not wanting their relationship out there has more to do with their positions at work and less about him being gay. It wasn't explicitly stated in the main series but he doesn't seem to be hiding that he's gay.
I had so many thoughts about things that could have been a lot better this episode but that second "Turn around" wiped my mind clean. That was just so hot for no damn reason.

That switcheroo on the train was kinda sexy.

Canada isn't trying to big brother or "save" the rest of the world the way these other guys are.
