Im Hantae is a green forest literally. He was selfless even years ago when he first met Baram and he remained as such till the end. If only someone takes care of me as Hantae did, I will never let them go out of my life and love them to the core.
Congrats on finishing the series. You finished it in 3 days and didn't have to wait every week for the next. Although…
Yeah I too liked AobPuen and PromNont in the end, though in the beginning I only cared about ZoeyTeena. But midway I suspected something fishy about Zoey and hence I couldn't root them any more. Turns out my guess was right.
BTW, was Playboyy a success? I mean the rating is quite low here and most of the BL fans don't recommend Playboyy too. But, still the crew is teasing S2.
Why Phob take drugs when Nont assured that he will help Nuth to release him from prison? Is he trying to overdoes…
Thanks for the clarification. Nont gonna get real mad when he knows it was Phob. But, I still think maybe Nant didn't die after all, they didn't show his face clearly.
HUGE COMMENT COMING UP! I don't know if I like the series or hate the series. It's somewhere in the middle. Whoever…
Why Phob take drugs when Nont assured that he will help Nuth to release him from prison? Is he trying to overdoes himself and die? And the ending after the credits, did Phob kill Nant? What was the motive, since Nant didn't seem to attack Phob in any way(which means he didn't expect to see Phob)?
I don't know if I like the series or hate the series. It's somewhere in the middle. Whoever watches Playboyy as their first BL might either run away from BL genre for eternity or get addicted to it. I won't say there was too much NC scenes like others. The series clearly mentions, "The series about relationships of 'human' through various definition of sex. The series about relationships that presents 'sex' explicitly". I don't get why people are complaining about this series for explicit scenes...didn't they understand this statement? The only thing that bothered me is people in this series are like horny 24/7. Zoey's gang kept making comments on sex all the time. I don't know if there are people who talk or think about sex all the time, and if there are such people, apologies.
One positive thing about this show it accurately shows the flawed human relationships. Relationships are not flowers and pearls as often portrayed in media. There is nothing like "happily ever after". But, I agree that the lives of the characters in Playboyy are so messed up and I am not sure if it happens in real life too. Every character is flawed and secretive. You don't know whom to root for.
Playboyy deviates from the usual BLs because of its story and it was refreshing to see such an unique plot. I didn't feel bored because I wanted to know the mystery of Nant. However, I did feel that the investigation by Nont was going in circles, coming at nowhere. Since the characters were secretive, no one bothers to reveal it until the last moment. When I knew about Zoey's secret in the end, I realized there was chances of saving Nant.
In case of acting, they were all good, considering the fact that all of them are rookies and they are in their 20's. Even pro actors would have shied away from playing characters in this series but yet all the actors looked confident and comfortable in BTS. The BTS made me fall in love with KaowOat. The direction was excellent because it was P'Cheewin who is known for his works. All couples had good chemistry in my opinion but my least favorite couple would be PorscheJump. I loved that one couple - SoongFirst - communicated in English. I didn't root for any ship much but eventually I started liking AobPuen and NontProm and NuthPhob sort of grew on me, and their ending just broke me.
There are several plotholes and unanswered questions, and since there is a S2, I hope everything gets cleared. I have one doubt which I have asked in the spoiler, please someone clarify it for me.
S2 was lot better than S1. I didn't know about J-min before but he was so cute here. I liked all three couples, which is rare because I don't usually like multiple couples within a drama. Though I must say Kim An's backstory confused me - Kim An was an orphan and that creepy guy is from the same orphanage as him and they were like siblings, but then Kim An developed feelings for him. The creepy guy wanted to maintain the same status but immediately want to bond with Kim An when he saw him with Lee Hyun. Why he was behaving in such way and why did he spread rumors about Kim An and eventually framed for his suicide? I didn't understand that part and why suddenly he returned to Kim An and even tried to kill him but eventually spared his life? If someone understands Kim An's story please do explain me. Joo Hyuk's and Sung Min's intimate scenes shocked me because usually KBLs aren't up for it. The only KBLs with half naked intimate scenes other than this show could be Only Friends? movie and Long Time No See. (T8S was comparatively less intimate then the once I mentioned). Overall, I enjoyed it. The last episode was so fluffy. BTW, I really liked the professor lady and Sara, who are very non-judgmental. And I really need a spinoff or a full series with the Uncle Professor and The College Guy. That was so unexpected yet sweet.
Wow...this could have taken a lot of research and time. Thanks though! In India, hoodie culture is pretty rare since most of the region have hot and humid climate. But, I really want to buy a hoodie...my mom doesn't allow saying it might make me sweat more and she's right - I sweat a lot even without hoodies.
Extraordinary Watcher You: Most popular dramas bore you to death, so you often go off the beaten path to find the hidden gems no one knows about. Your Watched list is full of titles with less than 500 watchers on MDL. You know your taste is different than others, and you have peace with that. Drama watching is a personal experience, who cares about the popular opinions?
I have to say it. If anyone is complaining about the problem in this but LOVED TharnType congratulations! You…
You are absolutely right about TharnType. When I had just entered BL world, TharnType didn't seem that bad. But now I look back at it, I can see it was full of red flags.
Why there's so much hate for this show? I have not read the webtoon but I liked the show. The leads had chemistry.…
1. Why Jooha beats Doyoon instead of Taeyi? Like Doyoon is completely unrelated to the situation, then why? And seems like Doyoon hides those injuries made by Jooha to Taeyi...so does Taeyi ever found out and if so what happened? 2. Seheon's dad seemed to disapprove jazz. But, they didn't show if at the end the dad was okay with Seheon pursuing jazz. What happened? 3. Sejin says to Seheon that he would be going abroad and when Seheon asks further about it, he refuses to answer. Is he quitting his career and why he was dodging the question? 4. Who liked who first? When Taeyi was ill and Seheon fell asleep, Taeyi touched Seheon's lips. But Taeyi was repulsed when Seheon kissed him, why did he react such? 5. How exactly Tae Joon died? They always showed the terrace so did he jump from there? 6. Taeyi said Tae Joon was ill for a long time and that he knew about it. What was he talking about? Did he knew Tae Joon is into guys or was it something else entirely? 7. After Sejin tells the truth to Taeyi, how does Taeyi react? Since he is very hot-headed did he beat up Sejin? 8. What Sejin does in future? Is he still a pianist and is he single? 9. They showed SA when Taeyi finds Seheon outside his uncle's bar. Did webtoon Taeyi caused trauma to Seheon because of that? How long did it take to Seheon to heal from it and when did he accepted the apology and confession from Taeyi? Thanks in advance.
Why there's so much hate for this show? I have not read the webtoon but I liked the show. The leads had chemistry. I thought the pic of Ji Ho Geun here looks a lot like Lim Ji Sub who played Jae Won in T8S, but there was much more similarities between the two. Ji Ho Geun's side profile almost looks like Ji Sub. And his eyes and smile seems to be exact replica of Ji Sub. Besides that, the characters Taeyi and Jaewon had a lot in common - both of them lost their brothers, both attended therapy and both of their trauma was cured by their respective lovers. Seheon seems to have chemistry with all the cast. I thought Jooha really liked Seheon and it was heading towards a love triangle, but I am glad there was no such trope. Off the topic, but the actress playing Jooha's sister has really big ears, which sticks out. And good that she backed off when she knew Taeyi wasn't interested in her and she even felt bad for Seheon when Jooha was making him uncomfortable. The title of the show is for the side characters and that makes this show unique. Tae Joon's character was so dreamy and I loved him. Se Jin and Tae Joon had chemistry, but poor Se Jin! I have some doubts about the show though since I haven't read the webtoon, so could someone clarify it? I have asked the queries in the below spoiler.

I agree with half of it.
