I don’t know why so many people dislike this show here on MDL. Ofcourse it has many flaws but i can forget these…
There are many reasons, but to name two: -Tonhon's aggression/violence -Ai, Ni, Chon, Na, and Pang's manipulation to get Tonhon to "realize" his sexuality There are pro's to this show, no doubt, but this series drops the ball in ways that MANY BLs have done before it and they kinda should have known better before making it in this way. The budget is there. The production quality is there. The actors' capability is there. All the pieces were there to make this a REALLY good rom com like how the previews showed it, but unfortunately, it didn't deliver for many people...myself included.
Amp is an idiot. Who spends this much time on an Ex? LOL and WTF at the thing with Ton's sister and her husband.…
I'm convinced Amp and other 'vengeful straight girlfriends' that plague BLs don't exist in real-life. As a gay male myself, I've never known or known of any straight girl ever to act like Amp or Off's gf in Theory of Love or Tul's gf in Together With Me etc. I think it's mostly a fantasy that exists in BL to add conflict just for the sake of it. Maybe something to do with a lot of these stories being written by straight women too...which is kinda weird because this aspect of BL often gets criticized as anti-woman/feminist.
I agree. I think comments here have become more aggressive than they were before. People attack each other, yeah,…
I know it. I'm gonna binge it as soon as it's over (so probably some time Wednesday or this weekend). I tend to really like Korean BLs and Korean BLs tend to be really short in episode length, so I always wait until they're over. I'm probably weird for doing that. lol
I've only joined MDL for a couple of years, but it seems, from my experiences, that the comments used to be more…
I agree. I think comments here have become more aggressive than they were before. People attack each other, yeah, but people attack a lot of these shows and movies too. Calling actors/filmmakers' work things like "garbage", "stupid" or a whole host of other unnecessarily derogatory adjectives without even indicating at all that you've actually acknowledged it for it is or what it was trying to be is also very callous and it's often those same people that respond with "I'm just expressing my opinion". I'm not saying you, I'm just saying in general.
what are we to other people if not the sum of our deeds though?
Well, if Fiat is to be the sum of his deeds, then that still makes him at least a relatively OK guy who went through some emotional issues and acted on them in the wrong way. Fiat does have friends, after all. A whole basketball team that cares about him and a best friend that's never left him. Surely, there's more to him than random sex and home-wrecking, right?
The best part of this episode was when Tharn said that he was going to kill Fiat. THANK YOU!!!!!! Finally someone…
I also loved Cir and Phugun's sweet moments. In general, I really like Phugun and Champ (as individuals). They have this really simple, kinda ditzy vibe about them, but they're so sweet.
1. Can I have a spoiler as to what the phone call is about...2. Techno was naturally funny / goofey in S1. I laughed…
I don't know what the phone call is really about, but for some reason, when I saw the scene, I immediately thought: Type's dad is dead or in critical condition. I'm probably wrong, but that's what I thought.
Yeah, lets not forget that Kla drunk r*ped Techno but even before that he was bribing Techno's own brother to…
If that's the way it had played out in the series, I don' think anyone would have an issue. In fact, it kinda pisses me off even more that it didn't. lol
Just curious but what character did u dislike in Sotus?
I don't take to bullying or "tough love". I just have a really low tolerance for aggression and violence in relationships, especially when it's a one-sided thing.
No storyline. It's mostly just a compilation of them flirting/confessing their love for each other, but wearing random costumes and hairstyles while doing it. No complaints from me about that. lol I found it hilarious. Somehow this special was even wackier than the main series, but it was still good.
I found Mark annoying too particularly in the first 1-3 episodes, but even if I'm to imagine Mark were ugly or…
I can see where you're coming from about that. In spite of the fact that people really do "play hard to get", this type of behavior is overplayed in a lot of media and leads people to think they have the right to be pushier than they should be.
