I like him too. Big part of what I like about this series is that the characters feel a lot like someone I might have met. Even the main duo. I was really frustrated with their bumbling efforts at first. But by now, they feel believable as young people who let their emotions get the better of them at times:)

Lol that was mostly irony. But she did make me sentimental. When I lived in China I had a neighbor who also had a shop downstairs who'd 'care about' her son in the same loud and public way ...often:D I lived alone so she'd do the same to me. She'd never let me forget my acne problems, often commenting in the shop how it's gotten worse and what should I try next:)) she cared but she was also a terror, and Lu Di's mom gave me the same feels.

Ups, I forgot there are links on this site. I was searching directly in yt and thought maybe I missed a chinese playlist. Good thing ep12 ended on a high note, so I don't feel desperate;)

Thank you! But I was wondering about an official source. I can wait 3 days ...I hope;)

Lol, we were laughing while watching this, that Tarantino should make a remake. So much potential for flying limbs in those explosions: D

Lu Di's mom is such a mood! I'd watch a spin-off about her .. with earplugs;)
Btw are unsubbed eps 13-15 available online for free? I couldn't find them.

So, being gay, in your opinion, precludes you from acting like a bigot?! Did I get that one right? Ok, then please supply me with a better word to decribe someone who unreasonably clings to their own beliefs and shows extreme intolerance for people who disagree with them, pelting them with derisive remarks and insults left and right?:D Also, you'd notice (if you cared) that I did not say you ARE a bigot, just that you SOUND like one in your comments. Your complete disregard for context astounds me. This is a global film forum, why wouldn't people use such a common phrase from film/culture studies like queer narrative here? Especially, since it can't be easily substituted and certainly not with "gay-themed story". I'm pretty sure you know how those two phrases differ, you just like to get a rise out of people... Next, you're gonna be claiming that someone on MDL used an N-word equivalent slur towards you because you're gay... But, of course, you haven't said that:D

I find it hilarious that you'd mock people for their word choices when they're trying to communicate in a clear and precise way (queer narrative) - but your own comments are so sarcasm-heavy and full of ambiguous statements that they've been, according to you, repeatedly 'misunderstood' here. Maybe instead of calling people dense, you double-check what you've written first:D To me, you come off as very bigoted in your comments. But I assume I'm misinterpreting your words too lol. I agree with what others already said about the show. 'Not me' is not a mission Impossible wannabe. It's a pretty straightforward Young Adult show with social commentary, that obviously has found its audience among the bl watching crowd.

Oh, I loved the crocodoc! From the series perspective, it was so much more fun than let's say watching a group of 'geeks' running complex formulas in Excel to decide on their next mission:D I also agree with the general direction of the plot. It's good that they failed and I hope they'll become suspects. My problem with the plan was that I can't see it harming Tawi in any way, even if it succeeded. That'd be just a small hiccup easily solved by PR. When Sean said that he wanted to destroy Tawi's businesses, it sounded like he's gonna start buying up explosives on darknet, so when he came up with that powder....;) I do quite like how unpredictable this show is turning out to be.

You mean other than letting crocodoc decide which causes are worth risking their hides?:D For me, this episode plays like a one long chain of really dumb decisions. Starting with that whole scheme being basically pointless (a lot of risk for the boys and zero real impact to Tawi) and ending with their blase attitude about leaving behind evidence tying them to the crime scene (even though there's a witness!) There are a lot more examples mentioned all over this thread:)

Nah, it's attraction with some fanciful words at best;) Haven't you ever asked your friends to stalk your random crushes at school?:D Not sure that punch says instant reciprocation either (though probably yes because... BL;)
OK,I get what type of comments you meant now... Still think the show could do with more story arcs going on at the same time, instead of focusing so heavily on gang/Tawi

Wow, that's quite a rant:D How do you know that Yok Dan is a clichéd 'love at first sight' scenario? Do you have inside knowledge? Cause so far they got like 3 minutes screentime and 15 spoken words total. Meanwhile, the young vigilantes and their grudge got two full episodes filled with all flavour of stupid. Can you really blame people that they'd rather go with some good old romance?;) To me, connecting with someone while pumped with adrenaline from doing illegal shit, and then that someone turning out to be a cop, is quite a juicy setup. I see a potential for a not-so-clichéd storyline there, so it's disappointing it didn't get any development.

Is Sean insane? Is that the twist? Is this dark romance?:D Cause it takes a special mind to come up with a plan where the outcome isn't worth even 5% of the risk. Even if that batch would somehow slip through the final quality control. It would just be recalled after the first couple customer complaints. Things like that happen often enough and usually don't seriously impact the brand. Keying Tawi's car would probably have more personal impact... Then, what sane person would give the most important job to the weakest, most unstable link in the chain? He really should blame himself for that one. And what's that psycho ending that came out of nowhere? Oh, there was also that line about not needing gloves! Though I'm not sure if that's insane or just really dumb:D

Seriously though, I can't help but agree that the plot has gotten off the rails in the last 2 eps. There are so many interesting directions they could've taken this story. I was hoping to see what the parents are up to, Dan's work as a cop, or more W at the ministry forced to confront his beliefs with the corrupt reality. Why have the writers decided to put the characters in these increasingly logic-defying volatile situations instead?

Lol haven't watched that one. Heard it's fluffy? , I don't really mind it as long as they're not breaking out into full conversations about the benefits of drinking whatever it is;)

Good for him: D I hope it's clear I don't think he's a bad actor, just not necessarily the best fit for this role. Sure, life would be much less fun if we all agreed with each other;)

But not being good at something is not the same as not even trying;p It'd just be more engaging and enjoyable for me, if the actor had a more inscrutable or enigmatic style, and a chance to pull it off, instead of failing so conspicuously. And I'm not so sure he was supposed to, otherwise why the need for tests or traps in the script... Of course, I don't know Gun's range as an actor and he may yet blow me away with his rebellious B persona. It also could've been the director's decision to have him look so openly scared or adorably lost 80% of the time to tug at our heartstrings: D Doesn't change the fact that it made this rather unlikely scenario even more of a stretch for me.

Yes! I think someone with a natural poker face, conveying emotions in subtle ways, would work better with this plot. Gun is like an open book. A scared sh1tless open book: D I was thinking from ep1 that no way they won't suspect him when the guy is practically oozing fear;)

I feel like the title of ep5 should be 'Do not attempt it at home kids';)) Cute n' creepy stalking, martial heroes style jumping with no run-up, and whatever classic horror that last scene came from... Is that drink they're advertising like red bull? giving people wings?:D W is starting to drive me a little crazy. Maybe he should feign a sprained ankle or an upset stomach, and take a minute to just think... Ah right, he doesn't have to worry about fooling them that much. Cause B hasn't TOLD anyone he's got a twin, and since they're the only two people in the world who know about it … oh wait;) This is getting so messy and I'm enjoying the hell out of it;)

Urgh, seriously?! Why are there so many patronising comments in this thread... We are all bound by the same site TOS. As long as people comply with them, they can write whatever they want. I like the show, but if someone got disappointed by it, they have a right to vent here. You can discuss, block, ignore or report. But this ain't your private playground to be telling people to gtfo!

It's really a question of preference. You have a show that weaves an erratic mystery with quite a few characters that look like they're hiding things. So you come up with theories, scenarios and questions. Then the new, very short (40+ min) episode finally airs and, not only doesn't answer any of those, but stirrs the action in a completely new direction, introducing even more suspicious people;)
Now, what do you do?
- get frustrated to death and throw your footwear at the screen?
- get excited that you have another full seven days to come up with even more questions, theories and scenarios?
There's your decision. Choose wisely: D
