0 people found this review helpful
knew that Director was dirty, guess he always was. but back to being confused if the guy that got falsely accused of the bombing's 20 yrs ago. in the flash-back Shiro was with Rion and him celebrating his B-Day - why he act like that person was his father? why he act guilt?!? thought they met in the orphanage n Nonomura Kazuhiko was their care-giver. plus if he was with the kids on B-Day wasn't that same day the bomb went off somewhere else or i didn't understand that scene??? ********************************************************************************************************************************************************also guess was wrong n the only guy Shiro meeting up with, in hotel-rooms was Osu Kimiaki - even before he became a Prime Minister. and after everything Shiro said, was that true or a lie just to get close enough to get info out of him?!?. cause yes Rion died/disappeared 3 yrs ago and he not only joined the Yakuza, he also cozied-up to Osu. but from what he said they been together/meeting up for over a 1yr, and he still hasn't gotten anything of importance out of him. so i ask again, is he really into Osu?!? confused ¯\(°_o)/¯ n a bit grossed out i have to admit (ノ_<。)ノ*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************n what happened 20 yrs ago, how it tie in with the bombing and who is holding something above those 3 guys heads?!? cause even though they might be involved in a hell of a lot it seemed there was a mystery woman with power over the 3 guys. so was i wrong n Yukiko wasn't assaulted by the 3 and it is something much bigger?!? only got Q's 3 ep's in ugh

considering how apathetic i felt at the start of this - if i succeeded in binge watching this till the end (in a few hrs) guess this wasn't half bad. well all the credit goes to Lang, loved this character from start to finish. just pity that his trauma wasn't dealt with, and just used as a plot-point to get the mains together. same with the whole situation with Xun An's father. guess he got tired of beating his grown ass son and gave in. idk if that would be true to life, but as this a short BL it's gotta get wrapped up with a 'pretty bow on top', even if it defies logic. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************like Qing ending up with Qi Ran, the enemies to lovers trope alive an kicking. guess she so used to babying someone, it was automatically logical that she would marry Qi Ran just so she would get a ready made kid to baby. now that her brother had someone who would take her place ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************what i did like and appreciate, Alex and RJ didn't end up together. given their age gap i for one am a very happy camper at how everything turned out. even though i don't get Alex not even trying to phone RJ to make sure he alright. even if he wasn't attracted to him, the logical move was to make sure the kid u took under ur wing was ok. so that was a bit 'off' but it is what it is. was a cute BL all in all plot could've been better but still enjoyed it

yes Lang and Xun An r adorable together and have great chemistry, but sorry their kisses fall flat. Lang can n does kiss normally, but Xun An has these closed mouth stiff lip kisses that just make me cringe - so i rather Not see a couple kissing, then what we get here ¯\(°_o)/¯ which i find so freakin ironic as was watching Between Us and there someone wrote, how the kisses were bad and after watching this BL, the fact that the kisses between Win n Team were bad became a glaring fact. ironic, cause maybe Win n Team's kisses weren't always perfect, but there were some instances where they were smookin hot. here every time it falls flat (the pecks r sweet and cute). but then am the odd one out, as everyone else swooning ヾ(≧▽≦*)*******************************************************************************************************************************************************also ironic that was feeling bad for the senior in this ep. he for whatever reason decided not to take a chance on Xun An and maybe he was hoping (all along subconsciously) that Xun An would still be waiting for him. now that he is ready to try, he found out he missed his chance. sad but that's life for u ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Big A and Ren Min r a cute side story. donno if they a pair but they add a little something - less drama i guess, to this BL. besides really loving all the employees who work for Xun An, they really sweet and always bring a smile to my face

oh how i've missed Bai Qing, not ( ˘︹˘ ) but unlike most, wasn't over the moon about either kiss. maybe it's me ¯\(°_o)/¯ the kiss between the mains felt off, maybe cause it was their first kiss or idk why... but it didn't flow and the kiss between RJ and Alex. other then the age difference i really don't get RJ always pouncing on Alex. consent is a word he hasn't heard of?!? oh whatever - *************************************************************************************************************************************** Lang still my favorite and just fun to watch whatever he gets up too... even if i didn't think he needed to work as hard wooing Xun An back. but it is what it is, and that's how this plot was gonna go. so Qing coming back into the picture to make Xun An's life miserable - i aint hating on that matter too much.. her getting in Lang's face, now that i do mind (╬▔皿▔)╯

so the senior isn't good or bad. but thankfully Xun An is over him, n that's the only thing that matters. but i didn't get or like his getting angry when Lang finally was ready to face his fears and confess his heart. what was the point of his getting angry and pushing him away, at what? and what was he accepting?!? ************************************************************************** Lang was finally ready to admit he acted out of fear. considering everything he is going through, being that truthful isn't easy and yet he did it - cause he cares for Xun An. ****************************************************************************************so i personally didn't like Xun An at that moment. what is the point of his big speech to the senior, about him knowing what he wants and going/running after Lang. just to push him away when he finally was running towards him?!? make it make sense ¯\(°_o)/¯ (ノω<。)ノneedless drama if u ask me....

seeing this ep, thought was wrong about the "senior" and it was a one sided love that he wasn't aware off. but seeing the preview, again confused {{{(>_<)}}} need clarity (⊙_⊙;) is he the bad-guy i thought he was, or is he just an obtuse fool?!? ************************************************************************************************************************************************either way Lang running and pushing Xun An away is kinda sad, cause pretty sure it aint as cut and dry and him not getting that Xun An has developed feelings for him. he is shying away cause of his trauma of losing people dear to him. it's also cause he's not conceited to think the world revolves around his ass, so he's not automatically assuming he's the one Xun An is talking about. but he is also running scared, so maybe his stopping Xun An at the end of the ep, before he verbalizes who he is interested in, is cause he is scared to hear the senior's name just as much as he is afraid to hearing his own ¯\(°_o)/¯ *****************************************************************************************************************************************************and this hang-up will get solved only with him getting the help Xun An offered in the previous ep, cause dealing with his trauma is the best way to move forward. where he will be ready n able to move forward. Xun An offering to be there and be his care-giver wont solve Lang's mental hiccup's in the long run and might even destroy any potential 'ship' between them.

well that ending - or rather the preview of the next ep is a hell of a doozy. the senior is divorce (*′д｀) big whoop, considering how he treated (left) Xun An. i for sure wouldn't be jumping with joy, waiting with open arms for someone that ditched me, shattering my heart without a second though. but i am me - idk how Xun An gonna deal. ***************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************this ep was really fun (finally) of course cause of my main man ♡ Lang, this character is adorable and so freakin loveable. from what i get he keeps pushing people away cause he thinks he is to blame for his parents death. so anyone in his life will sooner or later be lost, cause of him. and so that wont happen he wants them around but Never too close (now get Aggie's remarks/confusion). so in his POV the best way to keep Xun An close, is to set him up with a friend. weird logic but also heartbreakingly sad ~(>_<。) ********************************************************************************************************also loved Xun An referring to his knowing a good therapist, seeing Lang break apart mentally (which is really painful to watch), but glad Xun An didn't gloss over the subject and offer Lang some much needed help. really glad this subject was finally addressed, just wish Lang did more then just confide in Xun An - that was kinda avoiding the subject or rather avoiding getting the help he needs to deal with his past trauma. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the other plus in this ep was Alex and his treatment of RJ - love how stern he is with him. he doesn't even joke around and keeps him at arms length. am loving this mature approach -

Xun An for sure fell in a blink of an eye. not that i blame him - Lang is adorable, sweet and fun to be around. so him not wasting time isn't shocking - as is he been in limbo - just existing since his previous heartbreak. why waste time when he can finally feel... kinda happy how this is turning out ********************************************************************************************also loved how Lang worried that he with his own baggage could end up hurting Xun An, being so thoughtless shows what a catch he is. having said that, dude needs help with his trauma / PTSD cause love plushies or medication wont solve the root problem **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also like that RJ is the one infatuated, while Alex keeps shutting him down at every turn. know that will change but given their power dynamic i feel uneasy with them turning into a 'thing'

would say am happy RJ's mother came back for him, but that condescending attitude, about where he was working, let alone how everything revolved around her husband ugh. kinda shocked Alex could talk some sense into her. that she listened to him - considering how she talked about "a place like this..." but the plot has to develop, so of course she wouldn't want her 18 yr old (only child) spoilt brat (that can't fend for himself) close n safe at home ¯\(°_o)/¯ *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also considering Lang's older overbearing sister being a doctor, can't she realize he needs help and i mean the medical kind?!? cause his action don't just scream just PTSD. but mental illness, that needs psychiatric help. treating him like a baby isn't gonna solve his problems in the long run. but besides this logical point, the 'ship' between the mains and how they click is cute and sweet to see, their budding romance in the making a plus point in this ep/BL... ***************************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************also like the older brother role Alex has donned when dealing with RJ, he needs someone strict yet caring individual in his life - but donno how i feel about that turning into a romance - 18 yrs or 19yr old doesn't an adult make. not given how immature he is mentally (⊙_⊙;)

hmmm better i guess (but as the 1st 2 ep's were bad) disregarding a few bursts of sweetness due to Bai Lang. better isn't great or good. don't get Bai Lang's PTSD, need back-story to get why he's so traumatized not only by dentist's n teeth, but also stormy night's ¯\(°_o)/¯ and have to say - if u having a panic-attack it just doesn't disappear cause someone getting u into a car. but why except they research anything they write about, let alone try n portray accurately in drama's?!? the viewer's r either stupid or only care that the main's get together, we don't care for logic - i guess (ノω<。)ノ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************plus add RJ's mother to the 'ain't worth sh*t' females list - where she doesn't just allow her husband to be a condescending neanderthalic douche towards herself n her son - she allows him to hit her son and toss him out of the house, when he can't fend for himself. mother of the yr here.( ˘︹˘ ) glad he kissed a guy that was just b*tching to his boss that he needed extra help - everything falling into place - how convenient.. yeah yeah am a cynic - i know *****************************************************but have to admit there bursts of positivity when i see Bai Lang being his goofy self. and have to say him getting Xun An to warm up, is also making me smile (even though not really buying how it is happening - the lost in the head-lights look they both get, doesn't infatuation mean - more confusion but whatever...)

find it hilariously ironic how the same aloof, cold character that can act a douche with one (Bai Lang) can't seem to find his spine when confronted with another (Bai Qing) but i guess as she playing cupid. he has to be subserviently with her - even though anyone else would tell her where to shove her "u owe me" - it's a trope that's so over used. same with the older over bearing sister that keeps treating her brother like a child, just cause - if it isn't evident i don't like Bai Qing, i really really don't like her type-cast (⓿_⓿) ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************and from one annoying female to another, Aggie - Bai Lang leading her on?!? he even know she exist?!? cause he didn't treat her as anything by an acquaintance. will never get women that hang around men and hope that... like i will never get the annoying cliché of using females as annoyances and hurdle's in BL's, just so what?!? to justify why men end up with men?!? is that really how it works? though ur just wired that way - as in born. was wrong? it's just that women r that insufferable, men turn to men? k (* ￣︿￣) *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************2nd ep and the only character i like is Bai Lang, he's sweet and naïve (overly so) but still enjoying him when he's goofing around, the rest of the plot needs work (a rewrite) IMHO ¯\(°_o)/¯

this was surprisingly cute n funny, and it's only cause of Bai Lang. Jin Xun An doesn't offer much of anything, to paint him one way or the other. like i keep saying the tsundere is a thing of the past, as it wasn't a likeable character trait - ever. IMHO. so hope he has more to his personality, then being cold n aloof, as i wasn't moved by his "...his deep, electric eyes..." *****************also hope Bai Qing stays off scene, what little there was off her wasn't fun to watch. hate people who try n jump the queue - for whatever reason. there people before ur brother that r as in as much pain and were waiting patiently for their turn, but cause u busy or whatever... doesn't make it ok or right ¯\(°_o)/¯(ノω<。)ノ so as i started, this turned from meeh and annoying to fun and entertaining once we only got Bai Lang. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note idk why but Andy Wu looks so familiar too me, looked him up and haven't seen anything he was in... hmm will come to me (⊙◡⊙;)

read comments that this boring ¯\(°_o)/¯ everyone and their POV. personally i don't find it boring. i like how Team and Win r with each other. yes their lack of communication, about their true feelings is frustrating but also true to life. sometimes when u r on unsure ground, u rather avoid a situation even if the confrontation would bring an end to the self-doubt and confusion that's plaguing u. so i get why both rather dance around the 'elephant in the room' then actually face their feelings; what they feel for each other let alone admitting their heart to the other. that's scary uncertain ground that can leave one heartbroken (⊙_⊙;) *******************************************************************************************************************************also read how annoying Team's acting immature is. to admit the truth i was worried about this aspect, as this a tried n true trope in BL's. it's a given trait the Uke's must poses - he needs to be catered to and babied to death, otherwise he not Uke worth - i find Team sweet, funny and endearing. yeah he act's like a spoilt brat but that's cause Win love's that side of him, let alone enable's/encourages it . **************************************************************************************************************but when it count's Team will man-up, speak his mind let alone be thoughtful and considerate of Win. so yeah personally i aint into babying my significant others (as i don't find that attractive) neither do i like being babied (not my kink) but that works for this duo( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°) so more power to them - n other then verbalizing n confessing their true feelings, their actions speak volume's so this a good healthy relationship IMHO

that ending scene is just avoidance IMHO. Win pushing Team against something and Team getting lost in the onslaught... isn't anything new. has it gotten them clarity about what they want from each other?!? no(!) then why instead of dealing with the situation, they turn to carnality? yeah it's an easy out - same as running away instead of facing ur true feelings, using words to make heads n tails out of whatever they feel for each other. nah, better to get-off and push facing reality to another day (ノω<。)ノand after the serious conversation about romance and love in the previous scene, it's a bit of a let down - oh well it is what it is... ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but at least some side couples fairing better, Pruek & Manow have cute moments, same with Wan & Tul. but the hilarious bit about them is Win always playing cupid, pushing them together, kinda cute. also glad Prince turned out to be a good-guy and like how his situation with Bee was solved in a flash. personally don't like that manager. ******************************************get that getting into the industry isn't easy and u have to work ur ass off. but i don't like the POV shown, as it also shows how a lot of young actors can be taken advantage off, let alone used and abused with them getting burnt-out before their mind 20's and some then choosing to 'end everything' as a consequence of this type of pressure.

know am the odd one out, but really don't like Team calling Win "Hia" it is weird, calling him 'brother' let alone how fast he started using that nick, considering how he was fighting feelings n the confusion about what he was feeling. but ignored it, in this ep after Win saving him - his use of that nick was jarring and weird to hear. ***************************************************but all that is ignorable when u r confronted with the 180 Win does by the end - i really haven't understood what his 'trauma' is. in the 1st ep he said much of the same - meaning the resort will never be his, cause he the 2nd son. so no matter how hard he works, it will automatically go to Wan as the 1st born. get that logic - but what has he lost?!? he has his family; parents, siblings. and the more u see of Wan and Wiew - the relationship between the siblings, there is No rivalry to speak off. they there for one another, even if they fight. it's kids being kids or brothers being brother's, not anything worrying or ugly. plus he doesn't seem to be hurting financially, thus his parents not neglecting him either - so i ask again, was is Win's problem?!? ********************** he is the one telling Team that he will only have him, that he will always be there for him etc.. now this 180, am so confused what is behind this behavior - ********************************************************************************************************as is i was a bit worried about how much Team was relying on him, cause yeah it's great that Win is offering his bed/comfort and assurance that he is there, so Team can get a good nights sleep. but that doesn't solve the problem and now that Win has cold feet, Team left out in the cold literally (ノω<。)ノ ugh idk what to think or say ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note as much as i enjoy the mini side stories, am glad they miniscule and not overshadowing the main plot, that was one of my main worries going into this. that the plot will focus on other's and the mains will get lost -
