I think I will drop here. I really liked the ex-husband arc but after that it really lost its charm. I mean, I was here for the revenge story (and I did get it) but the deadly love triangle + "mafia" fight + the sexy & dangerous ML that suddenly transform into a love struck puppy with one brain cell lost me completely. Didn't help that the badass revengeful FL became the usual damsel in distress. To be fair, she was a bit like that previously BUT she wasn't only that.

Idk, I will maybe give it another chance when all of the episode are out but right now, I prefer keep the good feeling I had with the first part than ruining all for what it seems a really subpar second part.

Idk, the way I saw this it wasn't just a few days that passed. We saw multiple scene where WSW gradually get better with CC support. WSW as always been a strong characters to begin with and a really bubbly & easygoing one so I wasn't that surprised he reacted that way. As for CC, at this point, he is completely smitten by WSW & a lost cause. So yeah, when WSW smile, CC follow. :P

As for miscommunication, they were always aware of each others feeling but it's just their pride that got in the way in the end (and time to absorb the truth about WSW scheme & CC hiding his mom condition). So after the mom's death all of that became meaningless at this point (& CC cannot resist crying WSW - like I said, a lost cause ^^).

It's even more than that. Apparently the previous Xia Ze Fang was hated by mostly everyone but the Grampa seems to be liked by everyone. You can see that when the "Medium" Friend say that this version of Xia Ze Fang is much better than the previous one and got scared out of nowhere -> Ghost Xia Ze Fang probably was the culprit here.

Don't mind them. I read a ton of Novel and when one get adapted we always see those one that will always complain about X or Y just because Novel > All. It often come down to a superiority complex to bash the adaptation regardless if it's good or bad.

Good Drama! I personally loved the second couple especially Cheng Kai Ran he was such a sweetheart and his stuttering when he was nervous or embarrassed - aka. 80% of the time - was so lovely.

Yeah, Mashiro seems to finally stood for himself against his mother! :D

So far, it only worked with mouse. The success rate is still very low and many of the offspring died prematurely. They have also health issue like infertility. It really isn't ready to be used by human.

I also find it ironic that it's apparently China that made this breakthrough because I can also see this useful for same sex male couple and as we all know LGBT right isn't exactly their strong point.

Needless to say that even if this technology became safe & reliable, it still need to be accepted by the society. For example, surrogacy is still taboo in MANY countries. Even adoptions by same sex couple are complicated or even impossible depending of your country.

OK, thanks for the reply. :)

Yeah, if I was Wang Shuo I would also questioning my relationship to be honest. Because it happened twice: In the bar and when they played this game + Chi Cheng calling Cheng Yu in his drunken stupor.

Sure I wouldn't went psycho mode faking sleeping with the dude and ghosting my ex for 6y like it was some evil genius plan to get him back (like what did he expect to happen in the end ? Oo) but Chi Cheng is really talented at being misunderstood by his lover as it happened again with WSW. :P

I get too immersed & absorb negative emotion like sponge in general. I watch Drama to relax and make me happy. And I think I have the right to be picky about what I want to watch. I'm sure some people have also have opinion about horror movie and I could miss out great one but I just can't watch it either for example. :)

Can you vaguely describe the ending of the webtoon ? I don't expect really a happy ending for the FL as it's apparently a story about her downfall but... I can't handle sad ending (it wrecked me too many time so now I have PTSD :P). So is it somewhat happy ? Or it's just straight up sad ?

We also commonly use the same term in my country - Demi-Frère (France) - so I can understand the misunderstanding. ^^

Is it that common in your culture for you to know it could be possible ? Ngl, I needed to search if it was allowed (and it seems it isn't) because I never heard of such case personally. Only in novel & drama.

But yeah, romance between Half-Sibling is taboo everywhere even in Taiwanese BL. :P

+ the fact HY refused to sleep with him for "medical reason". It made him even more obsessive to not be able to fulfill his desire. Well, It was probably also calculated by HY like his cooking-taming. :P

Oooh! I really loved this miniseries when it was released in France! Never expected to see a Korean remake of this story + my memory being quite foggy make me able to fully re-enjoy this! :D

They were. Tada's Father was married to Thiwthit's Mother (but they aren't related by blood). It's why they controlled and had share in the family enterprise in the beginning. It's also why Tada had a mental breakdown when he was teenager and decided to study abroad after meeting Armin.

I think Thiwthit believed he was in a Taiwanese BL. Love between step bro never work outside Taiwanese one. :P

I loved it. Both lead really delivered and their story was very touching. Really surprised by Pond as I only know him in his recent work "Fourever You" where tbh, he didn't make a lasting impression on me (I mostly blame the script & direction now).

Also, like a lot of people, I was also charmed by Thada's Secretary, Veynai (I almost had a hearth attack in the last episode). All of his scene were sweet & funny. I will definitely watch for him if he can get a leading role in the future.

On a side note, I really wasn't convinced by Thiwthit. Don't know if it was the acting or the directing, but it was like nails on a chalkboard everytime he was on screen for me. It was just... too over-the-top cartoonish villain for my own taste. Apparently, it doesn't seems the case for most people so consider this as a "me-problem".

Anyway, this drama still is in the Top 5 BL drama I've seen this year. 9/10

For Tum & Klah: Klah is single, Tum teased him twice about that fact. And when they talked about Knight having a potential secret crush on Mild, they made pretty obvious that Klah spoke from experience: his own secret crush on his best friend, Tum. And the fact he launch death laser every time Tum's girlfriend is mentioned, is also a strong hint of his feeling for him.

A lot of characters in BL are written like they are pansexual - being attracted or loving someone regardless of their gender. Tbh, it's mostly used to avoid to talk about it & make the writing more easy. I like to call it the "BL world" where it's an universe were the debate around sexuality doesn't exist. It allow perfect stranger to hit on MC even if they are men (or ML) like it's completely natural to assume MC could be interested when we actually know it isn't that easy IRL.

Loved your comment & it's 100% accurate! :D
