Episodes 11&12: The finale felt a little flat to me, lacking the fireworks I spent 10 episodes reveling in. Ep. 12, especially, was often rushed.
Other than that, my primary reaction is slight disappointment that Eun A and Dong Man's relationship never progressed into a romantic one, even though the script and other characters seemed to keep telling me they WERE romantically involved.
Don't get me wrong, their relationship is beautiful, deep, and supportive. Their conversations over dinners or drinks or whatever, when it was just the two of them, were lovely. They seemed, as Dong Man said, to have come into the world as two halves of one whole. I could not imagine a loving friendship more gorgeous than theirs.
But that doesn't make them girlfriend and boyfriend, which, again, the script and other characters kept labeling them as. Yes, yes, yes, before you come at me, telling me that relationships don't have to have a label, let me clarify. I totally agree with that. My beef is that the story and characters were labeling them as GF/BF, but I did not see that on the screen. Perhaps "disappointment" isn't the right word for what I'm feeling. "Confused" is more accurate.
And yes, if it had gone romantic, we should have seen some smooching and lovemaking. However, I don't know about anyone else, but I can't imagine the two of them doing either of those things. So, yeah, "confused" is more accurate.
Acting was fantastic across the board, direction, too. This is the largest collection of actors in one cast who are great at natural weeping that I've encountered. Great writing, imagined from a perspective I've not seen before.
Yay! A fellow dark toxicity lover is in the house! :)I live for that shit, too.The series has already had a few…
I completely agree with your first paragraph.
MDL is full of BL fluff-lovers, though. :) And they swarm anyone who expresses admiration for twisted, sick, dark plots with interesting characters.
But, there are a lot of lurkers on this site, too: Members who read but don't comment because they're intimidated by the MDL Church Girls who police speech here.
On edit: OK, I just educated myself as to what the hell an "eldritch entity" is, but I'm not grasping your overall meaning. Perhaps you, having written what I cannot fathom, are an eldritch entity?

Bravo.

Dylan Wang needs to lighten up.
And refrain from reading social media comments. No good comes of that.

Your pissy pity is wasted on me, "green-tea bitch."
I also already said this:
"You think Ok Taec Yeon is going to see my comment and immediately change his casting choices? "
Consider attending to your own issues, "green-tea bitch."
I don't care what you think.
And consider taking that broom handle out of your a*s.
