Guy, quick to ditch his long-held crush on Wahl for Tew, now finds himself tearfully fish-gazing at an aquarium post-Tew’s lame breakup line. Enter Wahl, and voilà, Guy’s eyes shut, maybe dreaming of a Wahl-kiss? Cue the music, hinting at Guy’s heart in a tug-of-war.
Tew, quitting his gangster gig? Meh. His ‘it’s not you, it’s for your safety’ breakup with Guy? Double meh. Honestly, trying to like anyone in this drama is like fishing for compliments in a sea of eye-rolls.
First's penchant for kinky sex, with him and Soong diving into all sorts of creative role-plays, adds a unique twist. Take that scene where First, pretending to be kidnapped, tearfully tells the camera, "Daddy, I’m a slut." Is this a tongue-in-cheek jab at patriarchy, a playful poke at defying traditional norms? The show's production, a bit rough around the edges, makes it hard to delve into any profound themes without a smirk. I'm convinced the producers aimed for a tiger but ended up with a cartoonish dog. Playboyy seems less like a daring drama and more like an accidental comedy.
Nail's way of wrapping up romances is like a masterclass in setting boundaries. Plus, his flirty independence in a one-night stand? Totally about owning his sexuality – something a lot of women can vibe with.
But Nail, oh Nail. His character's a bit of a puzzle to me. Dropping Jay's bag on purpose? That's not sass, that's just messy. He's aiming for sassy but lands in cringe territory. Spritzing too much cologne, letting rings roll off his fingers onto Him's floor, and his whole 'queen bee' act in front of classmates? It's like watching someone try too hard to fit into the queen bee role from an American high school movie, but missing the mark. Nail's take on sassiness feels more like a forced performance than genuine flair.
ROFL😂😂😂.You just gave me trauma with the flashback to that "Hooya".You might be right about our brains…
Oh, and a funny confession: whenever Teena shows up shirtless, I can’t help but get fixated on his nipples. It’s not like I’m swooning or anything – they just have this undeniable presence on screen. Talk about an unexpected focal point!
ROFL😂😂😂.You just gave me trauma with the flashback to that "Hooya".You might be right about our brains…
When I’m plotting to ruffle my boyfriend’s feathers next time, I’ve got the perfect plan: I’ll just belt out a “Hooya!” Watch as his confusion meets hilarity – it’s going to be my new secret weapon for a good laugh!
💯.The towel-wiping scene? I rolled my eyes. De ja vu hard all the way to Ah Lonh nai.The "I'm dumping you"…
Episode six’s saving grace? Kenji’s glasses! They looked so familiar, I swear I have a twin pair. His specs had this rosy tint, giving his cheeks that ‘just-pinched’ blush vibe. I rock similar ones in spring and summer – they’re my go-to accessory for my floral dress days. It’s like Kenji and I could be the ‘Spectacular Specs Siblings’ of the season!
In this episode, they were all about the 'safe word', and it had me flashing back to the beefy dudes in The Sign belting out "Hooya!" Is my brain permanently set to BL mode now? The side effects of too much BL, perhaps? 😂👬🎭🗯️
Lol. I knew Tew was gonna ask to break up.It's crazy when I see this plot in shows and I still can't get used…
Alright, so after watching episode six, it’s glaringly obvious: Wahl has officially made it to my ‘not cool’ list. Here’s the scene: his girlfriend just called it quits and Mr. Wahl? Completely unfazed. But then, bam, he shows up right in front of Guy, as if on cue. It’s like he had a sixth sense about Tew and Guy’s breakup – and mind you, Guy looked totally blindsided by Wahl’s sudden appearance. Recall Wahl’s girlfriend complaining about him being in his own world, forgetting her birthday, and always having Guy on his mind? Now, I’m starting to think, what if Wahl’s been tracking Guy? (Flashback to Boss and Tul’s storyline with modern phone tracking) Gives me the heebie-jeebies. Post-episode six, Wahl’s not just a character, he’s a whole can of creepy!
Alright, so post-episode six, I’m fresh out of praises to sing. I managed to roll my eyes past the synchronized poison recovery miracle and even got a chuckle out of the oh-so-original towel-wiping routine. But then, Tew drops the drama bomb - the age-old ‘I’m dumping you for your own safety’ line. Seriously? It’s like the scriptwriters just gave up on creativity. So, my verdict: a masterclass in recycling drama clichés!
I believe it's because Teena did not agree to be his BF. At first I thought Zouey stopped him because he is not…
I’ve got a theory about why Teena didn’t say ‘yes’ to being Zouey’s boyfriend. Remember that scene where Zouey was consoling First? Teena was all ears then. Zouey told First, since he and Soong aren’t officially an item, it’s no big deal if Soong gets cozy with others. Now, Teena, being in the same line of work as Soong, must have been mulling over those words. And bingo! That’s probably why he didn’t jump at the chance to be Zouey’s beau.
Chinese monologue? He spoke Chinese?How did I miss this?
In response to Keen's blunt inquiry about whether Captain has been intimate with any men, Captain's internal monologue in Chinese vividly confesses, "I haven't done it with a man, but I've been done by a man." (I haven’t been the active partner with a man, but I’ve been the passive one.)
After a day’s grind, hold off on episode three – it’s a brain teaser with all its twists and turns. This…
Oh, and a heads-up: don’t try to empathize with any of the characters in this BL drama, or you’ll end up as mentally scrambled as I am. The plots are so intricate and the emotions so intense, it’s a wild ride!
After a day’s grind, hold off on episode three – it’s a brain teaser with all its twists and turns. This episode, thankfully, cuts down on the cringe and amps up the plot. Zouey and Teena, First and Soong – their relationships aren’t just a tango of passion and desire anymore. It’s like a complex jigsaw of emotions, and post-work, my brain’s just not ready to piece it all together.
And hello to Captain and Keen, adding more layers to our BL drama. The kooky Japanese dubbing is out, but Captain’s Chinese monologues? Still kind of throws me off the vibe.
Totally! Knowing who just sneezed in the room without turning around? Family vibes. But nailing who's sneezing on the phone when you've barely met? That's like some next-level sneeze detective work!
Tew, quitting his gangster gig? Meh. His ‘it’s not you, it’s for your safety’ breakup with Guy? Double meh. Honestly, trying to like anyone in this drama is like fishing for compliments in a sea of eye-rolls.
