0 people found this review helpful
anyone wanting to watch this, doesn't need to watch the 1st season - just rewatched it (n then here at the start) got a recap of how the mains get together. considering how this plot has been set-up, think it would just depress u`(*>﹏<*)′ *******************mentioning the plot WHY in BL's, the Koreans LOVE to use this absurd plot-line, where one half just up's n leaves, like their other half, let alone their 'ship' means nothing, n then after a while comes back n the one left behind, doesn't ask question but is grateful to get the one that left back, so accepts him no questions asked ¯\(°_o)/¯ with open arms?!? (ノω<。)ノ*********************************************************************************************************************************************************also i don't get why the OG plot got rewrote, where "...After his career took a steady turn for the worse, Kang Seo Joon, was afraid he might never be happy again. But after a chance meeting brings the talented chef Han Ji Woo into his life..." Seo Joon career wasn't in trouble, that wasn't the reason he n Ji Woo's words collided. *****************************************************but i don't get WHY Ji Woo's walls r back up. let alone why he moved to the country-side to run an unprofitable restaurant where he's disagreeable to the community, but a single mother n her kid (just cause they share the same last name) huh?!? idk what the writers were thinking - why this 10 steps back after the progress made in the 1st season, but will have to wait n see where this is going

Hyung Ki feeling guilt calls Yoon Seul a Celebrity reporter, who doesn't do anything about this juicy tidbit, just berates him? really? weird - donno what is more surprising that or him promising to give the money back - *************************************heck i didn't get how the other girl also turned out to be a reporter (n showing her shoes in the previous ep, just clicked that she was there when the dude threw the rock in the 1st ep) but why then, she a reporter, gives the scoop she finally got to some random dude n not publishes it herself ¯\(°_o)/¯ suddenly / conveniently everyone finding a conscience, cause this the end of the BL?!? ok i guess (≧∇≦)ﾉ **********************************************************************************************************Pil Hyun (CEO of TB Entertainment) dude funny, loved how he told Seo Joon he gives him headaches lol ヾ(≧ ▽ ≦)ゝ poor guy suffered a lot cause of his talent, n stood by him through thick n thin - wish this was really the case in that industry. ************************************************************************************************************************************************but this was a really sweet ending, n finally Ji Woo softened (no more walls between him n Seo Joon), Ji Woo dropping his guard and smiling more - seeing him happy makes me smile, but am happier that Seo Joon finally get's accepted n a happy end (cause dude suffered n was taken advantage off from the get go) they really cute together

Hyung Ki turned into a really despicable person - found it ironic him telling Ji Woo it was for both of their sakes, as if Seo Joon having money justified robbing him by using a very private moment. n as if Ji Woo wasn't as involved in that moment. what the time they knew each had to do with loyalty or having a conscience idk... but that's what u get, when ur gaslighting a person u don't have to make sense, just sell ur lie. *********************************************************************************************that girl that happened upon the scene n conveniently not only saw the main's together, but could get a close-up of their kiss, is a bit far-fetched. but so is her then reaching out to Hyung Ki - like why, how (ノω<。)ノ- but guess this plot needed to be forwarded somehow, thus it was what it was - logical or not¯\(°_o)/¯ at least it brought Ji Woo and Seo Joon together. but still wondering WTH is Ji Woo's backstory - why his home locked-up like that and if his parents r alive where they at????

what did Ji Woo mean when he told Seo Joon he must pity him - what, why? and why he make it sound like he a homeless kid that is basically mooching off everyone? and why / how Hyung Ki get that pic of Ji Woo and Seo Joon kissing? get from what he said that he is planning on selling that pic (maybe the restaurant isn't doing well) otherwise he wouldn't mention a payday... aish need more info on what is going on *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but poor Seo Joon, he dealt with one problem now another has popped-up. cause the fact that Ji Woo left the house, maybe even his work-place doesn't mean it will stop Hyung Ki from selling that pic - btw didn't get him telling Ji Woo, now they can get their payday. him selling that pic might get Seo Joon in hot water, BUT Ji Woo won't walk away unscathed ¯\(°_o)/¯ **************************************************************************************************************************************************also idk how Seo Joon can still keep being this positive loveable guy after the way everyone keeps treating him, even Ji Woo who really cares for him is hurting him (cutting him with his words)_ cause he thinks pushing him away is safeguarding him. but that doesn't change the pain his words r causing Seo Joon. poor guy just can't catch a break at least he can rely on Pil Hyun & Ho Min, something better then nothing `(*>﹏<*)′

Seo Joon confession as heartfelt and sincere as it feels - Ji Woo has all right to doubt him - as he himself admitted that he falls fast in-love and out of love with "things" no matter how hot the attraction at first, it doesn't keep his attention for long - so now he is forced to hide-out and is basically vacationing at Ji Woo's place, this isn't his real life. and people do a lot of sh*t on vacation that they would never do in their day to day. so the fact that Ji Woo isn't putting much stock in that confession, i total get him - even if he isn't jaded cause of past betrays he is a realist - he is acting like and adult and given Seo Joon almost childish attitude towards everything - Ji Woo not jumping for joy is logical. *****************************************************************but will also admit Ji Woo got hurt when Seo Joon apologized n told him to forget about it (the day after), he might not be sure or reacting out of fear (cause not everyone is ready to come out of the closet) so his go to is pushing Seo Joon away. better safe then sorry i guess *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************how ironic that now i get how shady Hyung Ki was being from the word go... he not into anyone but himself (as in self-serving prick). *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note that i never mentioned; i really love Pil Hyun & Ho Min, they side character's but they add so much - they're so wholesome. also Jeon Jae Yeong been in quiet a few BL's (always a side-character's) and yet i always notice him, cause he's such an adorable character no matter who he is portraying (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

With a guy like Seo Joon u Never know when he is being serious or about what (he even admitted in the previous episode, that he loses interest fast), he falls in-love fast whether its acting, love or anything... but it never keeps his interest for long. so what kind of a relationship will keep him??. maybe cause of how his parents abandoned him, he pushes people away before they do the same to him(?) but opening up to and believing in a person like him, this is a huge gamble...scary!*****************************even though am sure that isn't why Ji Woo got his panties in a bunch ヾ(≧ ▽ ≦)ゝhe really jealous. he's getting close to Seo Joon, he for sure cares for him even scolding his boss (who broke a glass), fearing it would trigger Seo Joon PTSD. n Seo Joon's constant complimenting him got to him, but him seeing Seo Joon being warm n sweet towards his manager, he got jealous n that's why he got angry n backed off when he got kissed. not cause of what i mentioned above ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************regarding the incident with his friend - have a feeling he got rid of the evidence to safeguard his friend not cause he didn't want CCTV evidence of his abusing his friend. but all he's doing then let alone his not even talking about it now is backfiring - n still wanna know what went on, intriguing

something i didn't notice or comment (the 1st time around), Kang Seo Joon could be such a jaded character and yet he is not only open n friendly, he is so trusting. after the way people close to him (n am betting more then the friend mentioned in the 1st ep) sold him out, he still so carefree n up for getting close to new people. there is a part of me that envy's this ability in him to be so trusting (and yet i do remember that it backfires in some aspects - which then becomes that much more heartbreaking...) but still applaud this openhearted kind POV he lives by. he a good person at heart and maybe this is what get's Ji Woo to mellow n open up to Seo Joon (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ) ************************************************************************************but episodes r too freakin short - it doesn't start its ending - anyhoo have a feeling Hyung Ki, Ji Woo's partner/boss has a thing for him... or is it something else? he didn't know Seo Joon would pop-in or that he knows Ji Woo - Orrr that they living together, so what else could be his agenda? ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************and forgot to mention this in the previous ep, the dude that threw the rock - whoever he was, why Ji Woo didn't contact the cops, why not call them or take his photo just as a deterrent.¯\(°_o)/¯

dislike reporters, cause of how they r portrayed in almost every drama / movie - haven't seen one that i think is doing a great job - what is the difference between this woman and a paparazzi? hounding people, stalking them and making their lives miserable all cause "the public has a right to know" how is that freakin justified?!? if there is a fine line, i have yet to see it - anyone can be violated like this and its justified cause its news? ********************************************************************heck she actively using her column to be judge, jury and executioner just cause Seo Joon not available for an interview (* ￣︿￣) why he owe her, or the public any answers?!? heck with people throwing stones at his house, just to check if he's there - this breaking the law. but everything goes, cause he an actor so the rules don't apply to him?!? he fair gain?!? this disturbing ********************************************************************************************************************************************side note - the whole zit scene grossed me out - i could / would Never Ever try to pop(?) heck touch someone else. why he so obsessed with it?? omo ヾ(≧▽≦*)o that was so ugh!! made my skin crawl..

kinda get Ji Woo, think he is OCD not to mention a loner/introvert, so some stranger with an attitude walking into his territory and acting like everything was a joke.. i would be a much worse roommate then Ji Woo - *****************************************but also feel like a lot of Seo Joon's attitude is a front - if he has been acting since young and supporting himself, he has built up this carefree attitude towards everything, not really showing his true self... this is interesting - both r guarded and even though they seem like very different people, deep-down i think they r the same

2nd time around, i aint wondering if Seo Joon (the big star) beat up his bff and paid him off. not cause i remember what i watched 2yrs ago. it just doesn't seem logical, to assume that just cause they were together - he was the only one around, let alone if u beat ur friend up, u wouldn't walk out like nothing happened between y'all. unless y'all in an abusive relationship n then his meekly walking out with u, is understandable. but still don't get why he can't tell the truth at least to his manager, so they can deal with the after-math as he can't seem to get in-contact with his friend... why the "i will think about something and come up with a solution..." - what the truth not an option? n if it's out of loyalty toward that friend, considering his silence is tainting ur name - he not worth this much consideration on ur part ¯\(°_o)/¯IMHO*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but still don't get what kind of landlord has the authority to just add another person to a place ur renting?!? unless ur living for free, and they doing u a favor. so u have to put-up with whatever and whomever they decided to surprise u with - what no tenant laws in Korea? weird

well a fitting ending if there ever was one. Win was right n that kiss was wrong, or rather them going behind Heart's back flirting n starting anything was Wrong! so personally am happy at how this ended, cause with all due respect to loving oneself or being true to ones own truth, it shouldn't come at the expense of hurting someone else(!) certainly not a good friend, that has been there for u through thick n thin. *******************************************************************************************like i've been saying from the start, Win or Jaime should've stopped this farce before it even got started(!). cause bi, gay or whatever their sexual preference is, they had No right to drag a heartbroken innocent into this mess, just cause they were confused or not ready to face their own truth. n in Win's case the sec he realized he was attracted to Jamie, let alone getting seduced by him (where he couldn't help but get flattered n return his feelings) he should've taken a step back, just for the sake of his friendship (with Heart). the fact she (thankfully) didn't fall for Jamie, was not for the lack of trying on his part. but cause she wasn't ready to jump into a new 'ship' so soon after her break-up. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Jamie's realizing he was in-love with Win - falls flat for me as i mentioned in my previous comment the dude seems false to me. maybe it's in his personality to flirt with the world, but then u can fault me that i can't suddenly buy that now he just gonna focus on one person. there was no really sincerity to his character / actions (we got almost no backstory, so we will get more info about him and why he is the way he is). actions speak louder then words, n his actions were to seduce anything with a pulse. so if u a romantic at heart u will by his confession at the end - as a pessimist, i don't ✌

so was wondering in my previous comment, what the point of Jordan was, and as he actively stopped Win n Jamie kissing while they were dancing (with Heart between them). guess he there to push the mains together n then pull them apart(ノω<。)ノwhatever... the only thing i know is that Heart is starting to get her fleeing's involved, n everything's gonna come crashing down, considering how Win & Jaime r making cow-eyes at each other. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the thing i finally enjoyed n liked in this ep, was how candid all the character's were while playing (even though 100% sure it's written dialogue), it felt like each was speaking from personal experience.. well until we get to Jamie ( ˘︹˘ ) n sorry but this dude comes off fake (maybe just my POV), cause of his actions n the Casanova persona, he's donned since the start of this BL. IMHO his every action is meant to seduce, so even if he's talking sense/from the heart, i feel his word r empty, n only said to rope in his prey ¯\(°_o)/¯ ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw was wrong n the Tony, Win keeps avoiding is his abusive father. find it so ironic that parents like these (that when in the prime of their life) used their strength n youth to dominate over someone helpless, just cause they could. now that they old n sicky, suddenly find a conscience n wanna reconnect with the same child to make amends - well to little to late IMHO. but this usually what happens (n lets face facts), if he wasn't sick n in need of help, he would Never reach out to his son let alone admit to being wrong. this just sad for the child - this for sure doesn't make-up for what was done, n he can't even demand n apology cause his parent is in a vulnerable situation, n that will make him the bad-guy (if he doesn't accept them n go help) ＞﹏＜basically emotional manipulation （︶^︶）********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the ending kiss was hot, wont lie but seriously WTF, leave the open door. Jaime's actively wooing Heart - just cause of the peck he gave Win, he suddenly threw caution to the wind?!? this such a mess idk what to say. Win always puts the breaks on, but he Never verbally asks Jamie WTF or stops him from flirting, making it clear he needs to know what's what, n to stop seducing him, while he is wooing his bff. this too much to ask?!?

genuinely don't get what is going through Jamie's mind - looks like he's looking to have some fun (which is fine - great even), not everyone needs a steady relationship at ever point in their lives. BUT(!) the people u r "playing" with, should know before hand what they r getting into. here neither Heart nor Winston realize this fact. Heart for sure deluded into thinking this whole weekend get-away is not only to mend her broken heart, but to find her new love. she all in/blindly trusting from the looks of things. ********************************************************************************************************************************if that wasn't enough, we got Winston who is not just attracted to Jamie, Jamie keeps flirting n seducing him at every turn. then off he goes romancing Heart, leaving Winston confused n hurting. but as Winston is more aware of Jamie's dubious nature, he more at fault IMHO. so tend not to really feel bad that he's hurting, am more scared/worried of the hurt awaiting an unsuspecting Heart`(*>﹏<*)′ ********************************************************************************************************really don't get that final scene (unless this again Win's imagination), get being attracted so much ur blinded by it, n can only see that person - BUT ur freaking friend (the heartbroken one ur trying to help) is stuck between u - u still can't see her?!? idk how anyone is finding fault with Heart, while rooting for Win n Jamie to get together ¯\(°_o)/¯ ***********************************maybe i'm the weird one here, but i wouldn't want to be in Heart's shoes, where not enough i got my heartbroken, but them my bff also stabs me in the back ✌***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: idk what the point of Jordan is, why he there? what he add to that 3some? he owns the "rest house" so?!? he said he would be there to cook, other then stuff his face n just be a nuisance i don't see any point to him ￣へ￣

of course the really important question's weren't asked, but a figment of Winston 's imagination (ノω<。)ノn the way Jamie reacted to Heart... idk if the dude's bi or what, but he for sure has no problem getting turned on by Anything with a pulse (⓿_⓿) is he looking for a 3some?!? given the little we see of him, he up for anything n anyone, dude would try n seduce a plank of wood if he could ヾ(≧▽≦*)o still confused about this character. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw seems like not just Winston, but Jamie too has a very concerned ex (that he aint ghosting). Winston on the other hand just keeps ignoring Tony's calls. there so many questions about the main character's back stories, hope they get answered so we get a clearer picture, then we've got now. not that i will start rooting for either - cause what both r doing is down right dirty - especially dragging Heart into this mess. even if Winston in this situation unknowingly, now knows he is attracted to Jamie, but it's too late as he has gotten Heart n Jamie to meet. Jaime not cold or distant towards Heart. so he as the bff should bow-out n try to keep his distance from Jamie, not keep giving him longing looks n going to sleep next to him ¯\(°_o)/¯ **************************************************************************************************************************************************************also Don't like Jordan, why he acting like a shady queen towards Heart?!? isn't she the reason they went to his "rest house" in the first place?!? n how convenient that, that place got 3 bedrooms but one under construction. logically Heart wouldn't room with either guy, n of course we get both guys in one bed - the times am rolling my eye's at this plot ￣へ￣ this takes me back to my initial question, WHY not stop this farce - why involved Heart, just so she get's hurt yet again?!?

Heart's name n their game (* ￣︿￣) like seriously with these 2 dude's (ノω<。)ノif Winston attracted to Jamie WHY oh WHY he trying to set him up with his brokenhearted friend?!? there were like 35 other candidates, he didn't find even one other person to fit the bill? oh here's a though, Why not forward her their messages n let her chose ¯\(°_o)/¯ if u take her out of the equation this is fun n funny, but they keep brining her up and that's just annoying. as they both using her as a buffer cause they unsure how the other feels (well in Jamie's case, he just seems like a player, that enjoys teasing Winston) so her being used, with little regard to how she will feel (when this blows up in their faces, which it will) this just infuriating, n so freakin selfish (╬▔皿▔)╯how or rather WHY should i care, if they end up together??? or ever find happiness ( ˘︹˘ ) ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw after the bathroom scene, let alone how Jamie's finds ways to get close n whisper in Winston' ear, Winston still not clued in Jaime not just flirting, but out n out seducing him?!? why he not just ask the dude who he's really after. n WHY the frack Jamie still going along with the ruse of going on a date with Heart?!? WHY!!!! when he keeps trying to seduces Winston ?!? at this stage, where he notices that Winston is effected/attracted n responsive to his advances WHY still act clueless?!? **********also why it seem like he hates women n it has something to do with his mothers?!?
