Please use the spoiler tag

How likely is it, that he used that line for the Korean peach before? 😂

Hahaha. True

Only on episode 16, but I am pretty fed up with the siblings. They're both such tools! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 Mao with zero awareness, that his actions are completely manipulated by the grand tutor. And his Bambi eyed sister, urgh. Does she have another facial expression beside eyes as big as saucers caught in headlights? Bambi on screen is seriously testing my patience. *huff*😅😂😂 Sorry, but I needed to vent a little. Now back to watching 😁

Currently on episode 7 and I am HOOKED!!!

Only problem is, that one of my pet peeves is constantly triggered.
While I have zero issues with rope work in martial art scenes, please, at least let their feet touch the roof or the ground, they are on, when they are supposedly are running on these surfaces. They are humans here. Not mystical creatures.
A (literally) touch more realism would be much appreciated. LOL

I love, how this episode showed the shift in Sun's mindset.
"Wanna rehearse?" -
"Suicide can only be done once."........
(Let that convo sink in with all implications)
....
Proceeds to deliver a suicide scene with a final happy expression on his face like a person, who experience salvation only through death.
(Clouds in the sky parting to reveal the sun as synchronized symbolism)
Since he didn't receive any direction, how to act that scene, it is Sun's version of suizide experience, we are witnessing here.
(Let that sink in)

Afterwards the dialogues around the script, which are showing the shift from
"There is no point in living, but since I don't want to die I have to keep living" to how small adjustments can result in changed feelings and a different experience.
Culminating in Sun taking action in seeking out Jay with the request to help him, that he will finally cry/feel something (again).

With their behavior and how they're reacting in the background I was even wondering, if they filmed it on a regular bus ride. 😁

I was just thinking, that this drama shows in a perfect way, how important it is to talk about the "mushy" stuff, when the boys mention, that our MC are the masters of it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nvm. Found the airing calendar for next week.
Episode 32 airs July 26

July 25 ep 31 and 32 or July 26 ep 32?

You're not alone. I love the parts with the boys and I am invested in their backstories (MC included). But the romance itself - I don't really feel it. Possible explanation could be, that he is an aloof character and she's still battling depression. It's the first time, I don't detect any chemistry between Esther and her costar (beyond friendship vibes).

Just discovered, that Lulu has a new drama airing. Yay! I hope, it will be good. 😊

FiYS?

I was wondering, where I knew the actor of prince Changsa from. He was the main guy in Le coup the Foudre.

And a lot of these parts are not only there to look pretty. They often serve a purpose and are metaphors to the storyline. It's really well done

Ty for your answer. I should have just watched one more episode. Ep 6 is the scene, when the cop states, that he is the emergency contact for our FL. 😅

Okay. Ty. 😘 Later as adults it's less important. But currently they're still on the hs timeline (at least she is), and I find it weird, that nobody asks for a legal guardian or at least, who that even is now. Especially since "they know her situation with her mom".

I started the drama only yesterday. So far (currently on ep 6) I like it.
But I have some questions: Are they supposed to be the same age? Or is there an age gap? Are they both at least 18? Since nobody asks for any adult/legal guardian present. I am confused 😅
