I got your back 😉 Some stunning Korean BLs are The Eighth Sense and To My Star. And some lovelies are Semantic Error, Our Dating Sim and Love for Love’s Sake. The Eighth Sense was one of my first BLs and it took my breath away. I still listen to some of the songs from the OST.

Damn damn damn… pleeeeeease tell me they are not going to fuck up what started out as a brilliant series by fucking up the ending. Gahhhh. There are shows that still make me angry when I think about how close they were to being 💯 and then they biffed it at the end.

And this episode de.fin.ate.ly needed more Jay and Sun (sorry Sky).

It’s him. In the behind the scenes from ep 6 Toptap talks about how nervous he was to film that scene and how he and Min had rehearsed to build trust.

Mayyyyybe. But no communication at all for three years? Especially knowing that Qi would be going out of his mind? And I still have the question about the aunt and the doctor…

Right?? Triple kiss episode. And all three scenes were 🔥 We were SERVED this week.

Or, I don’t know, maybe drive the car SOMEWHERE ELSE 🤦‍♀️

Even though more episodes then 8 would have been lovely, I *did* appreciate that issues and miscommunications were resolved rather quickly, instead of dragging on (and on) as they do in longer series. And even though WangTang are rookies, I thought they did *really* well. Their scenes got me in the feels for sure, both the highs and the lows.

Noooooo! I decided to go ahead and watch this because comments had said it had a happy ending, but even though the producer says it’s a happy ending, honestly the actors’ take on it is probably a more realistic interpretation given how that very final scene was filmed/edited. Gah!

Even though the ending definitely raised some questions (like, the aunt and doctor went away with Yanzhi. Did *they* not come back OR write for three years?) I was blissfully ignoring those thoughts and reminding myself, “hey, it’s a happy ending, right?” Now that this monkey wrench has been thrown in the works though, I have to say I agree with the actors that it’s a sad ending, with Qi imagining Yanzhi there. (The producer may have “begged” for a happy ending, but I think the director made her own work-around - !) Waaa! 😫💔

If you didn’t see the I-pretend-I-hate-you-but-actually-I-want-you-badly sex at the end of ep. 4… not sure what to tell you 🤷‍♀️ But yes, it was very much a… scene 🔥

It was a poorly filmed scene. Yes, the stab wound should have been in the back based on the direction everyone was facing. But the ultimate result was that he was only stabbed slightly… in the front. How you ask? Well, most others are asking that as well! But no, he was not stabbed through his body.

“I keep my personal and professional life separate” says the man who had thumb sex during a stakeout 😆

And I know a lot of people are hating on the clothes, but honestly I haven’t noticed them much because I’m so annoyed by the guys’ hairstyles, except Boat’s.

I feel like this series might be better suited for those newer to the omegaverse maybe? At least from what we’ve seen so far. I honestly don’t know how a show could effectively satisfy those very familiar with omegaverse and those newer to it, at the same time. I know that some people who are familiar with omegaverse are enjoying this series, so it’s obviously hitting the right notes for them, but for me, wow, I was bored. Phatsa’s heat li.ter.al.ly took up half of the episode time. The plot must be super thin if they have that much time to devote to a heat. Ugh, I’m torn, whether to give one more episode a shot or cut my losses now. I loved the craziness that was My Stubborn, but this BoatOat outing might not be for me. Bummer.

Ah, I was looking at the actual Tags. It does show Romance under the Genres.

I don’t see a romance tag?

Ugh, it pains me to agree with you. While I truly appreciate the artistry and hotness of the NC scene, and we did get some emotional insight for that encounter, I feel the story did not advance at all. If this was a 12-16 episode show, I would be more forgiving, but with only 10 episodes, the storytelling needed to be tighter this past episode.

Valid point, although we don’t know Tin’s orientation for sure. He could be bi. But if he still feels toward Siri like a sister, *that* could be the bigger challenge (in this imaginary situation). Or he and she are ok w her having a lover. Sooooo many ways that scenario has been overcome in real life.

Yep, I posted a similar comment. You have to buy into the romantic fantasy to enjoy these shows, but yes, Tin would totally have been married with three kids by then.

I was thinking this during the whole scene! The first 20 minutes of the reaction video is just going to be them having their heads stuffed in the sofa 😆

Um, me 🙋‍♀️ I’m in camp irritated 😖

But! I would like to make another PSA about our man Inn’s acting. I continue to be in awe. The scene with the letter? His face goes from anticipating, to stunned, to grief. I’m thinking, am I actually watching a *Thai* BL? (And then Pond comes on the screen and I’m reminded, oh yeah, I am 😆)
