That’s what’s most hilarious about this series. I have no idea what their “business” is, everyone is busy getting it on with someone in the workplace, they are oblivious to the child labour in the coffee ☕️ shop, they have no concept of standard work hours….I just love this nonsense
This series is most appropriately named. You are lead to believe Jun is stubborn, but it’s actually Sorn. He could easily say, I like you, I want to be with you, he stubbornly ignores his feelings and plays games with the one he loves. The screenwriters have generously borrowed from the french 1782 novel Les Liaisons dangereuses (remade into various film adaptations as Dangerous Liaisons). If you know the book, it ends in tragedy for Valmont. So Sorn better get his shit together or it’s duelling pistols at dawn! 🔫
Episode 5, the way Sorn was looking, with his black t-shirt, tousled hair as he massaged Jun’s inner thigh saying he “wanted to”. No one could say no to this guy…..Yes he’s a bastard, but he’s a beautiful one at that.
This show is definitely not for everybody, but is unfortunately definitely for me. Sorn is a mess. He's controlling,…
This post is so right. If someone told me a dominant guy was manipulating a young inexperienced guy into sex, I would feel it was wrong, but somehow I am completely forgiving of Sorn and even hopeful that he is redeemed and gets together with Jun in the long run. This series is the definition of guilty pleasure.
I love this series. I have watched it numerous times and I am still drawn to its theme of persistent love. I only wish the director included Tokyo as a character using more city shots. I’ve walked around the city at night in various districts and it has such distinct and beautiful charm.
How did I watch this series to completion? It gets my vote for worst Korean BL series of the year so far. The screenwriting was so boring and even at 2x speed it was near impossible to get through.
Does no one in fictional Japan know the risks of boxing? Any contact sport can result in death or disability.…
It’s very true your comment not everyone around you is always for you. I think most of these characters lacked basic self awareness. Whether they realize they were being a scumbag or not supportive, I think they wrapped it up. i sly by the end.
It is interesting how divisive the comments are about this series. Personally I really enjoyed it. The central theme of forgiveness - of others and oneself - was well done and I liked how the main leads overcame adversity. Hoko was always training to fight (punch!) Kairi but ultimately she was fighting herself.
