Thank you! πBut on a side note: What on earth is this show about? π I'm seeing from all other comments that…
I don't know eitherπ The concept seems to be "failed highschool group project" and I'm more worried than excited about them trying to start some sort of plotline now 5 eps in π I doubt that giving Jaehun a backstory now will help to clarify or make up for the mess that this drama was till now. But tbh I don't really care anymore, I watch this to laugh 10 mins straight and check the comments here afterwards which make me laugh some more π
The marriage of Han Jaehun, the heir of the Han Group, with a chaebol daughter is approaching.
You mixed up the names (which can happen easily since their names use same sounds just switched). Kim Haejun needed the money for his mother. And Han Jaehun is the rich guy hiring him to be his plaything.
Genuinely curious, did you all catch the text message at the end of ep 5, bcs where I watched there were no subs. Apparently we're getting some sort of plot in the next ep, are you all excited?? π€£ So, if anyone's didn't get subs and is curious, I'll put a translation as reply here tagged as spoiler:
Ep 5 - the saga of the best worst drama continues π€£ Why would you start the ep with another random dude in the car, when you know ep4 ended with you know what but with Haejun? And Jaehun fixing his collar, does that mean he has more than one plaything at once? Who thought this weird music together with the voiceover for Jaehun's monologue was a good choice? What is this ketchup(?) heart, is that supposed to be sexy? Why does the other art student feel as random as the car dude? Just more confusion and more questionable choice...and just when I wanted to say at least there's no more grunting and Haejun looks finally comfortable while kissing, surprise surprise it came back and he's looking tortured like always...π€£ But I have to give them that, no grunting for half the ep., instead: no natural sounds at all, constant elevator music and weird dubbing ππππ Soo, reading the text message at the end of ep. 5, they actually try to start some sort of plot now?? Without ever really mentioning Jaehun's background before wow... good luck with that I guess. I'm seated to see how they're gonna maneuver this train wreck to the next stop π
Ep1: a lot of tough words without any tough action. Or as we say in Belgium "a lot of blablabla without the…
"a lot of blablabla without the boom boom boom" hahahaha I need to write that down so I can use it in the future. How fitting for this whole series, the loudest groans and grunts for no reason, then suddenly a shaking car appears π€£
Has anyone watched their BTS ? I'm finding it more interesting and fun than the actual series π
Thanks for convincing me to watch the BTS now!! Normally I won't start watching the making of till I finished a drama because I'm scared of spoilers and that it'll take me out of the story, but tbh... what story can you be taken out of when there's literally no plot? π And turns out...you're so right, the BTS are way more interesting! I think their chemistry is better offscreen, they feel less awkward and them smiling at each other is just so sweetπ₯Ή Even the kisses are somehow more intimate than in the actual drama bcs there are less weird cuts. The only thing I still dislike is the music and the grunting... π
ok this story (insert grunt) has to be (ahhhhhh grunt) the funniest thing ever.. (one more ahhh grunt cause grunt)…
Thank u (grunts)! Your comment just had me in tears (gruntss)π€£π€£π€£ Finally, people are talking about the grunting... I found it so misplaced in the first 2 eps already, but I didn't see anyone mentioning it, so I thought maybe I'm the odd one out and it's totally normal (just grrrunting a again for the funsies) π€£
Thank you all for the comments here, they're literally gold and are what keeps me watching. *Unbottons shirt that will be magically bottoned up again in the next scene* I'm eagerly waiting for the next eps to come out, just so I can keep reading the comments here. *Removes plant to check whether you're watching attentively* I'm off to rewatch ep 4 again, just so I can laugh a bit more! *Grunting for absolutely no reason* πππ
Had me glued to my screen in the first half till the ML suddenly gave in to FL's advances way too quickly and after that it became a bit boring. The ending was kinda rushed, too. But considering that it's a vertical drama it's still a lot better than most.
I'm more a binge-watch kind of girl, but with this one I somehow lost interest after Shan and Obun got together and had to remind myself several times that I still need to finish this. I wasn't forcing myself to watch it and I still enjoyed it, but Idk why but even the "drama" that happened in the 2nd half seemed so mild and so quickly resolved that it didn't really make me feel any big emotions. Everything's just sweet and the kisses/NC scenes were great, but imo the story kinda lost its spark midway.
I was thinking to rewatch it actually. I liked it a lot, and as another user says : you are in for the ride and…
I've watched it already but thanks for replying anyway! I totally agree with you, I enjoyed it more than I expected reading all the bad comments and it's definitely worth a try. Also, even if it took an unexpected "turn" in the end, I still enjoyed it just because it made me laugh about how ridiculous it got... which is good, just in another way π
Loved it waay more than expected and I'm so sad it ended so soon. It feels like it just started and it just ends like a soap bubble that bursts when you're just about to catch it πππ
Despite the short length which really is the biggest downside I ended up loving it. But it had the potential to be so much more, if they had more time for everything π - more time to open up to and fall for each other, to actually talk in depth about their fears and resolve their issues, more time for the second couple (bcs I also really adored their characters), and definitely more time to address Jiwon's past instead of just throwing at us for a few seconds and then never addressing it again... This way it felt a bit rushed, like too much plot squeezed into 8 eps and also kinda unfinished bcs the way it ends they will definitely face the same issue with rumors again and they just ignored that fact? But on the positive side: I absolutely looved the chemistry and the kisses were the most natural ones I've seen in a while. Also, not having loud music drown out the kiss scenes made them soo much more intimate (though this made them hard to watch for me at first ..π«£π ). I needed some time to get used to the secondhand embarassment from the initial cringeyness, but some of their dialogue literally made me squeal, kick my feet and clap like a seal...π idk why or what it was exactly, but the way Jinwoo sometimes suddenly blurts out this random honest remarks and their overall dynamic was just so funny and cute to me.π₯°
I enjoyed this more than I expected! They definitely prioritized the steamy scenes over the plot, but I'm not saying that's necessarily a bad thing. If you're okay with the plot taking the backseat and focus more on chemistry and kiss scenes anyway, you'll enjoy this lots. Though I sometimes wasn't a 100% sure what the hell is going on and the ending was kinda whatever, I loved their chemistry and the tension in the beginning. Also, the ML's acting was surprisingly good! His jealousy and the random topless scene at the end had me cackling π€£ I also liked that the last ep included some behind the scenes footage, the whole filming team seemed to be really sweet together βΊοΈ
For a mini drama this was reaally good!! In the beginning this couple was really the definition of "matching each other's freak" and the tension was palpable. And although the tension gets lost a bit along the way, I actually enjoyed them slowly becoming openly supportive of eo, taking turns in rescuing eo and in the end, just turning into a wholesome couple. Besides it never gets boring because whenever you think you figured out whats going on another plot twist waits around the corner. Were some things a bit too sloppy (like suddenly his bites leaving no bite marks anymore)? - Sure. And did some things resolve a bit too conveniently? - Definitely. But did I binge-watch this whole thing in one day and thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish anyway? - Hell yeah!
ahh how I wished this was a full series... there's so much potential!! I really liked everything about this... except the time skip. Just why would you not just contact each other for that long if u actually cared??

It feels like we only see disconnected snippets of a fragmented memory. They leave so much open to the viewer's imagination that you really don't know what exactly happened and what they're really thinking. Some of their dialogue seems as disconnected as the scenes and is it just me or does Hae Jun still seem uncomfortable during the kiss scenes though he agreed to continue and now even asked for it...?
The weird editing already managed to confuse me about the timeline (first I thought ep 1 + 2 are scenes from 2 separate nights, now I think it's the same night and that scarf just appeared out of nowhere) and let's not talk about that sloppy editing of the audio track.
What a disappointment and what a waste of this pairing. I was really looking forward to them being the main leads... π©
