Good start

Good start to this drama. Looking forward to the next episode. I like the FL so far, not a typical prim and proper FL.

I love their friend group

It's just so special for each of them to support Mian Mian in what she hoped to achieve. I loved it!

Elders' blessing

In their culture, it's so important to get their elders' blessing. I'm happy for Lin YiYang and Yin Guo that they can finally be open about their relationship.

My favorite episode, so far

Xian Xian was very insightful about herself in this episode, and I loved it. It's been obvious for a while that Si Yue likes her, but I love the way he encourages her to be the best version of herself.

Way is messing up with Babe's head

Way may think he's helping his friend but he's really messing up with Babe's head and concentration. I still can't figure out what Charlie and Jeff are up to, but I feel that Babe's caught in the middle.

Confession

Wow, that felt a bit rushed. With only 8 episodes, maybe it needed to be said sooner rather than later, and it seems like Guy has chosen even though he was still feeling confused earlier that day.I don't know how P'Tew wil get away so this will be interesting.

I didn't expect that ending

I'm enjoying it so far and it's keeping my interest. The General Manager has gotten softer in the short amount of time since his new secretary showed up. It's nice to see the change. And all his other staff seem happier too.

A new dream for Qiu Ying

I can understand YiYi's reluctance to allow Qiu Ying to get close to Xiang Kong, after all he played her pretty well in the past. And everything that has gone wrong recently was related to him. But, Xiang Kong is sincere now in repairing their friendship and has even called Qiu Ying his top fan.Qiu Ying no longer want to return to the toxic environment of her old employer, but is eager to embrace eSports commentating with Luo Tian as her idol. This time, she has Xiang Kong's support in her new endeavor. I liked this episode where I can see our leads growing slowly closer.

Bamboo house

"Let's test the shake," purely from an academic standard of course, because Pran is an architect student and Pat is an engineering student. OMG, funniest pick up line ever. So nice to see their incredible chemistry.

A good start

Re-watched rating 9.0 4/15/24Original rating 9.0My introduction to JoongDunk and a good start to this BL drama. I thought Nuea was brave confessing to Kluen the last day of grade 11, but maybe he felt like he had nothing to lose since he was leaving that night.

That last scene!

Not only is LBY totally in lover with CSS, but he is protective of her and will defend her honor even if it breaks with etiquette. In this way, I think she will feel his regard and love for her, if she doesn't already know. But, the cattiness of these court ladies - I can totally do without. "Mean Girls" in historical outfits.I still haven't figured out Yuan Shen. I think he also admires CSS, but has not actually indicated that he likes her. I think he and Yang Yang would make a better couple.

Sometimes, we self-sabotage

When we think it's unrequited love, we tend to self-sabotage instead of being brave enough to admit our feelings to the other person. In Sheng Wang's case, it's even more complicated because he thinks his legal status-to-be (their parents are not even married yet) matters more than his feelings for Jiang Tian. And Jiang Tian has gotten closer to him, but it's been interpreted as brotherly affection, when we all know it's not.

Song Han has two sides

He presents a mild side to his brother but he is really his father's son with a wild ambition. I don't believe he would have poisoned his and Song Mo's mother on purpose because he seemed very attached to her; his grief at her loss seemed genuine. But if he has grown up a psychopath, we just can't judge him correctly; he would be so good at hiding his evil side.

Several reveals

Baek Sa Eon had been hiding his wife for her safety because she IS his weakness. As it turns out, he was telling the truth at that birthday shindig. And during the pre-wedding phone call between him and Hong In A where she says, she's doesn't want to go through the arranged marriage; otherwise, she'll reveal his secrets, he tells her it will happen anyway, but not with her, with her sister Hee Joo instead (he was trying to protect Hee Joo from an undesirable arranged marriage). Then, that last line, when Baek Sa Eon finally utters the magic words, "She's my wife." I actually got butterflies in my belly.

I thought he was resting a past injury

Who knew he was running injured? Stupid, stupid athlete. Now, he's injured and needs a more aggressive treatment. He may always have a smile on his face but it belies the hurt in his heart (or the many hurts).
