Rike

Aww thank you, how sweet of you!🤭 I didn't even think someone would enjoy these that much. Also, the comment section kinda died down after S1, so I stopped with the "recaps" for now. But I might start again who knows😅

Just passing by to check the comment section and y'all don't disappoint. I'm crying, still as hilarious as in S1 🤣
Also, I have a question, did anyone else hear that weird noise around 8:45 in ep2 while they're kissing in the bathtub?! It sounds like the voice actor accidently inhaled whatever he made out with to create the kissing sound...is he okay? Did he choke? Did anyone check on him?

I kept wondering where I had heard those bad sound effects before... and today it dawned on me, it sounds exactly like in bad Chinese vertical dramas. Thinkin about it now, it actually makes sense bcs the head company behind Seek Media Korea seems to be Chinese.
Man how I wished Myeongcheol and Hyeonseo would get another series together under a better production company *biggest sigh of the century*

Thanks for your understanding 🥲
And you're right, we'd probably all have turned gay by now if the kisses were always shown as hot as they could be 😂

I don't have a problem with their kisses tbh. Do I LOVE all of them? No. 😅 But do I HATE them? Also no. I've seen a lot worse 🤷‍♀️😂
But I definitely prefer the kisses in all the sweet scenes. Even the more aggressive ones looked better in the BTS of S1 before they chopped them up and deleted all seconds in which Haejun was reciprocating (which would have made them look more natural 🫤).
I think both actors have great chemistry and showed they do know how to kiss in other series. But here without decent directing and probably the only instruction of one being as passive as possible and the other being as aggressive as possible basically smothering him with kisses, they seem to be struggling quite a bit. 🥲
Anyways, I understand that can be offputting and their kisses here won't be everyone's cup of tea. 😅
Sorry for the TED talk, but I'll still defend the actors bcs this production being an absolute mess shouldn't be blamed on them 🥲

I guess confirmed. 1st ep is out now, 33 mins with outro

Saame! Hating everything else (especially their new voices🙉😭🙉), but staying for the actors and their chemistry 😍🥰❤️‍🔥

Ep 1
- Choosing the most unfitting voice actors ever, making our Golden Retriever Haejun sound like a Chihuahua 🫠🙉 but the rando girl gets to keep her voice 😀✅️
- Nonsensical dialogue ✅️
1. 🐶: "I have to pick up my grades tomorrow and I dont want to go alone." *proceeds to get them by mail*
Me: So with 'you dont want to go alone' you meant walk to the frking door 🙃⁉️
2. 📬🙋🏻‍♂️:Hello Mr Kim Haejun.
🐶: I'm Kim Haejun.
Me: *pretending I didnt hear this * ⁉️🤣
- Giving the rando girl (who btw already got rejected in S1🫠) wayy too much screentime and it's only ep 1 🤦🏼‍♀️
- Muting almost all natural sounds, adding the worst fake, loudass footsteps, liquid pouring and kissing sounds 😀✅️
- Dubbing everything but still managing to f up, so they magically speak though their mouths are shut and there's no sound though their mouths are moving 🧙‍♂️✅️
- Making a fuzz about Jaehun gifting Haejun an anklet bell (mind you, so he can always hear where he is) only for that bell to make a noticable sound exactly ONCE 😀✅️

No choppy editing and overly annoying music so far, but like proven in S1, good things take time!Everything can still go downhill from here. So guys, don't give up yet! 😀🙌🏻

WHYYY did you have to mention that, I didnt even notice bcs the weird voices are distracting me so much. But great, now I can't see anything else anymore 😭😭😭

Idc what anyone says I'm exciited 😆 even if the production is a mess pls don't come for the actors, imo their acting was good and the chemistry was great in S1!🥲 And if the editing is gonna be a shitshow again, at least we'll have sth to laugh about 😂

Omg thank uuu! Saved it right away in my SAL playlist 😍 But why are these clips always 10 min long for me 🤣🤣

Hahah good idea, maybe Doraemon can help us make this happen 👀🤣

Kinda tmi, but watching that scene where Zhao takes care of Mu when she gets her period while actually being on your period just hits different 🥹😭😭 How to turn a hot water bottle into ZhaoZhao's hand? (asking for a friend ofc🤣)

He definitely is!! 🥹💛 tbh seeing how he just sweats a lot made me feel better about myself bcs I tend to sweat more than others, too 🫣🫠
Can you maybe pls send me the link to the video of Esther dabbing his sweat? I wanna see it too 🥺🤲🏻

Aww I need watch the BTS 🥹 while watching the drama there were some scenes where I did a double-take, bcs I thought he's crying at first, but it was sweat 🧐😅

Ohh right, this one is great, too! 😍 I should write that one down as well! ✍️ It's kinda similar to this which I also love: "Over the years, I met so many people -handsome ones, wealthy ones, highly educated ones - yet none of them made my heart race again. Sometimes, I even wonder if I've lost the ability to feel that spark.
However, after seeing Jin Zhao again, the uncontrollable nervousness and excitment made me realize... that maybe only the man before me can easily stir my heart." 💗

Aww you're sweet! 🥹 then I won't stop rambling about how much I love this drama 💓

Count me in on prefering those "100 scenes of them just existing in the same space" 😍 I wished we'd get another drama with another 100 similar scenes of them, but till then let me keep rewatching this 🥹

Yees, I wrote that line down too, it's my close 2nd favorite! I also saved what Zhao said about unhappy marriages/couples and also what Mu said about Zhao being the only one being able to make her heart race. SO MANY good lines! 🥰🥹

You're so right about the writing! Usually, I always highlight great chemistry/acting, moving OSTs and interesting (no annoying/ one-dimensional) side characters, and although all those things are also absolutely phenomenal here, the thing I'd mention first when someone asked is the writing!
I haven't seen a drama that had such beautiful writing and great pacing in a long time. It felt slow, but not in a bad draggy way and rather in a thoughtful, good way. Like it was purposefully slowed down allow love to blossom gradually. 🥹💗 They used the time so wisely to show how love exists in the mundane and how it's not just the grand gestures, but also the little things that make one fall in love. In many new dramas the lovestory feels so rushed, only to squeeze in more drama and more plot lines (some of which end up unfinished 🫤), and to ultimately end in a rushed happy end with 10 minutes of real happiness. 🤦🏼‍♀️
But here there was no rushed confession, no hastily started relationship, no sudden ureasonable break and no rushed getting back together without clearing previous misunderstandings. Instead every gaze, every gentle touch, every kiss was intentional and filled with meaning and romance was finally given enough room to breathe! 😌🤍 Like you said a healing journey indeed! 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️
Sorry for the leengthy reply 🫣 this suddenly turned into an essay 🙀 I feel like I probably could talk about this drama for hours while at the same time my English is too limited to find the right words to express how I really feel about it. I shut up now and go rewatch this 😆😍

Just finished this masterpiece yesterday and if I wanted to list everthing I LOVED I wouldn't even know where to start. If you haven't watched it yet, you better go (no RUN) and start watching right now!!
I know I truly fell in love with a show that touched sth very deep in me when I start to jot down my favorite lines, so I'll just leave you with my favorite quote:
"...true love isn't self-righteous sacrifice, but two hearts defying wind and rain together, resisting a broken life. I understand now. True courage isn't charging into battle alone. It's allowing oneself to become a wound thats tenderly guarded." ❤️
