i get that in Korea higherups, teachers, parents etc... can physically assault those beneath them & no one will say a word. heck given the brother sister situation in this ep & how everyone in that town knew yet didn't nothing says it's fine as long as no one gets murdered. but it is crazy watching it being acted out live - this not my 1st Korean drama & wont be my last, but wont ever get used to this being acceptable in any society in this day & age. ******************************************************************get Jung Se Ok is portrayed as a psychopath or a sociopath, but regardless of what she is, she has way more self-restraint then i would've had, if Choi Deok Hui touched me once, let alone the amount of time he slapped her, then actively destroyed her future. sorry, but he would've been 6-feet-under in an unmarked grave a long ass time before he got a chance to develop any tumor in the brain or else where. & for sure wouldn't have been kneeling in the rain, seeking forgiveness - what?!? miss me with that sh*t - from where i am siting, she was wronged in more ways then one & the fact she resorts to murder, might not be the route most of us take. but i kinda get why she has chosen this way to vent. maybe a bit extreme for most, but i get it & like i said if i got slapped once - it would be enough for me to think up ways, how to bring the f*cker down. but that's me -

interesting 1st ep, wanted to watch this a while back (when it was airing) but i love binge watching shows, so waited... life got in the way & forgot about this. then recently watched The WONDERfools cause of Park Eun Bin & recalled that this was among her dramas, that i wanted to watch & as this also a short series, thought what the hell - wasn't disappointed - she is a very talented actress. *********************************************************************************************************************v got a pair on himself when he came to ask Jung Se Ok to operate on him after what he did to her & even now he is threatening her. anyone normal wouldn't poke the tiger they were trying to get to do brain surgery on them. a lot could go "wrong" & no one would would blame her. if u come for a favor that wont just save ur life but not leave u with a handicap - why the pompous attitude?? didn't get that. he also wasn't apologetic or sorry for what he did to her - regardless of if it was justified or not - not when he needed her help. & given her short fuse i am shocked he lived to walk out of that house lol - was sure he would get the treatment the nurse got.

of course they left an open ending, where the main bad-guy isn't dead ugh... as his "ending" wasn't satisfying in the least, logical that he would be back. even though am still wondering what happened to the sisters; Seok Ju Ran & Seok Ho Ran neither was dead dead, so maybe if there is a 2nd season - they will all make a comeback, time will tell. either way this was a fun drama (hilarious at times) but felt too freakin short & yet it didn't feel like anything was left unexplored. ********************************loved almost all of the character's (minus Son Gyeong Un's wife) i really don't get after how she treated him, him still loving & caring for her so much. but if u put that aside this was really really well done & a fun watch even f there were sad & depressing moments. for sure a rewatch - loved this

Yun Dong Hyeon is my MVP for this series, he is such a loveable giant. after hearing Park Jae Yeong & the other guy badmouthing his cooking & worse saying he is basically taking advantage of Park Jae Yeong, he could've turned bitter & mean - but he didn't take it out on Park Jae Yeong. hard not to love this type of character. also am happy Cho Ye Rin stood-up to her higher-ups & prevent Kang Seong Jae from being transferred to the offices mess-hall. this setting fits him better & given the chefs cooking for the officers now i doubt Kang Seong Jae would ever get a chance to cook.

this almost turned out be a depressing ep, if not for Kuji showing up, pushing Azuma to face his feelings & not bottle everything up, somehow ended up being cathartic. i got that Azuma was bottling up his feeling no matter what happened with his close friend, cause he was the adult & needed to be strong & show like he knew what was what - even when he felt scared & unsure of what was going on. but had to present that front especially before his students, specifically Takeichi - who had developed a crush on Tajimi. bitter sweet ep - just glad that even though after moving out of his father's house Kuji & Azuma kept in touch. but somehow it still feels like they two passing ships in the night that sooner or later they will part ways & given how lonely both r it kinda heart breaking if that is what happens. given how realistic this BL has been have a feeling we wouldn't get a cliché happily ever after - even though i could be wrong - which i hope i am as i need them together.

i get that Seok Ju Ran doesn't have another out but to trust the man she calls father as he was the one that gave her, her hearing back & the after 20yrs came to save her again. the fact he is just using her is neither here nor there given the life she has lived & how society has treated her. but she can see what is being done & worse who Eun Chae Ni's heart is gonna get transplanted into. yet she still trusts Ha Un Do?!? weird & ironic what with the cult they r running & the 3 kinds that Ha Un Do has under his thumb r brainwashed into blindly following him regardless of how shady & sketch the dude & his actions r. he not trustworthy & they gonna find this out the hard way. then it might be too late, maybe it already is. *******************************but the start of the ep kinda blindside me, the whole revelation of the real eternal child & the ending he met. cause of his powers his body wouldn't die but given the condition of his brain he wasn't alive - tragic & heart breaking given the suffering he was put through in his short life. & then his heart got transplanted to Eun Chae Ni, who instead of inheriting his power somehow went from bad to worse as time went by - still wondering why...

i was genuinely waiting for the moment Lee Un Jeong would change into Seok Ho Ran, but guess Lee Un Jeong really reason for coming back wasn't to search for & find the eternal child cause of any sentimental reason - he was planning on selling him to the mad scientist for his own freedom. given his childhood & how he survived since then i get this POV & yet given how Eun Chae Ni blindly trusted him - it hurts. ugh that ending took the wind out of my sails.

i knew that Ha Un Do was a bad maybe mad man but getting to see the depravity & evil in action really shows me that man made judgment isn't enough for some people - what he did to those children, let alone poor Eun Chae Ni, just wasting away in prison isn't enough. dude needs to get ripped to shreds on the daily. idk how Mrs. Kim could withstand the mental manipulation when she is an average woman, guess that went to show how much she wanted to say Eun Chae Ni - who she considers her grandchild. even though i am still wondering how did a wonder kid go from being able to resect themselves to being so sickly every major organ was failing in their body. hope we get answers - but at least Lee Un Jeong finally has come face to face with the kid that cared for him in that orphanage, the one he in-turn saved. ******************************************maybe this is what he needs to finally not just accept the group but tell them who their real enemy is & who they should look out for. cause him not warning them of that "church" - didn't get that, locking them up in that room didn't mean they would be safe - he can't keep them in there forever. *******************************************************************************************also IMO Mrs. Kim is as bad as the mad scientist, as she knew what was being done to those kids, she funded those experiment's & when everything blew-up she then suddenly found a conscience? her saving some of those kids & helping them doesn't make up for the suffering & deaths of so many nameless others - sorry.

this is hilarious, idk how hard i laughed at the trio's antic's - they so freakin funny & no matter how much i liked Eun Chae Ni at the start, she is freakin funny, adorable, sweet all rolled up in one.... she's totally my MVP in this & if she is really the eternity child the mad scientist is searching for, then how did she get so sick?!? cause if she is the child Lee Un Jeong remembers, then she couldn't die,cause she would heal no matter what. so how she go from that to how she became at the start of the series?!? was it Madam Kim's doing?!? was that why she reached out to Choi Yeong Jun, the sec Eun Chae Ni miraculously healed?!?? was she the one that made Eun Chae Ni sick in the 1st place, hoping she could lead a normal life?!?

lol, even i was surprised that until Kaji, Fukami was a top. doesn't fit him - but he is right - nothing is written in stone. bummer that in the next ep there is a new hurdle when they finally started a new. oh well 3 more eps to go so we needed some drama that gets resolved in the final ep - i hope

that Ji Yong f*cker is getting on my last nerve - hate bullies & he from day one, has been giving bully vibes. the irony is that Mun Ik who is kind of a pushover, becomes mean to those who r lower then him - i.e Kang Seong Jae. thank god for Yun Dong Hyeon, he might be a bit of a weirdo & scary even, but he is the perfect person to put any bully in his place & the fact he is gonna get discharged soon, doesn't bode well for all the weaker lower ranking guys in that base. cause then Ji Yong the f*cker becomes stop dog. even though given the preview, i guess Kang Seong Jae gonna get moved - or the higher-ups r gonna want to move him to their base, so he can cook for them. can't wait for the next ep - as am really enjoying this. it's fun & funny & yet not really a comedy.

that ending has brought up so many questions. if Eun Chae Ni's grandmother was involved with the experiments on the orphan kids - who was she? was Eun Chae Ni also an orphan, she just took pity on cause of her heart condition?!? if Eun Chae Ni was an orphan, why wasn't she experimented on? wouldn't they want to check if "whatever" was injected into a sick child, how it would evolve? not even a scientist but think that's how scientist would think. ***************************************************** & if Eun Chae Ni is her grandmothers biological granddaughter maybe it was punishment for what she had a hand in happen to all those kids. other then that a fun ep perusal - i really love v quirky personality - she is so much fun. ****************************also like both of her side kicks, but have to say Gyeong Un's family is taking the fun out of this. they treat him like garbage & he just takes it. he doesn't need to be mean back to demanded respect from his wife or daughter. but he needs to standup for himself.

what a chaotic 1st ep &fun too - nice intro to all the main character's. Park Eun Bin is really talented so her every character is unique, v no different. Cha Eun Woo's visuals r very distracting lol - very very good looking... can't wait for more of the chaos

My Grandpa Is a BL Writer Episode 1
0 people found this review helpful
was expecting this to be cute & lighthearted, but this was depressing - when u really think about everything, this sad. it's great the grandfather wants to write a BL - but who says it will be a hit? & make enough money to save the orphanage, pay back the loans with interest?!? the debt is freakin over 12 million(!) & he needs not only to make enough to cover the debt, but enough to make sure he can run that place & not end up back in debt. i doubt even best sellers can make that much money, from just one book & sorry, but the only book he wrote was a flop. so who said the genre was the problem? maybe he isn't that good of a writer. just a thought - *****************************************************************************************************maybe this was supposed to be a light romcom, but watching the children & adults - it just depressed me how many lives will be destroyed if this venture fails. *******************************************************************************************************not to mention dating someone just to give insight to his grandfather isn't fair to the guy that confessed to him - maybe i am over thinking this but it is what it is... hope the next eps wont be such a downer, but have a feeling it will be. lets hope they not to depressing or i might drop this before i reach the end - **************************************************************************side note: that whistle got on my nerve's pretty fast - i would've gotten rid of it, the 1st chance i got.

i really hate when character's communicate but only convey half of the info, it's worse then not communicating - like what is the point?!? if u decided to talk, then put all ur cards on the table, ask & say everything - leave no stones unturned - not these 2. i get Pei is surprised that the person he loves & worries about, has suddenly grown suspicious enough to investigate him. but can u blame Yin Qi??? even if Pei doesn't know the reason, he was gaslighting Yin Qi & deflecting from himself. he keeps going on about safeguarding Yin Qi - but is Yin Zhou trustworthy? will he keep his word? no, so i don't get why he keeps going on & on about Yin Qi laying low & letting him keep colluding with Yin Zhou . he thinks he is smarter then Yin Qi, ironically he is stupider. at least the past Yin Qi was innocent & not interested in the palace intrigues. he just wanted to live a quite life writing poetry & hanging with his bff & sister. so him being naïve u can't fault - but Pei acting this way is moronic. *********************************also i don't get how or why that father (the moronic king) sent Yin Qi to the border in the past & would even take up that type of offer. the dude has fainted in almost every ep - yet he is the one that would/should be sent to the border? he should send that degenerate Yin Zhou. cause even without Yin Qi's men informing him & us that the King knows exactly what Yin Zhou get's up too.... we know that that King knows everything that is going on under his roof - he knows who his sons r & for him their infighting is building character or some such crap. especially when the outcome is Yin Zhou has succeeded in getting rid of 2 of his sons (that we know off). but maybe to him that shows that Yin Zhou is worthier to inherit the throne - donno. *******either way i wish the mains communicated & i also need Yin Qi to not trust his men blindly, Yin Zhou's buttboy is getting on my last nerve. he is smart otherwise he wouldn't survive under Yin Zhou, but i need Yin Qi to catch on ASAP. pity before he died he didn't see more of who was untrustworthy in the past ugh
