and the song which played when we were shown the montage of their kisses too 🫠🫠

as someone who hasn't read the novel obviously and is new to the show, reading your comment made me feel relieved because I kinda like ziyang but was sus about it (I have severe trust issues😭)

Don't worry, I get you! 😭 Unfortunately, Lost to You hasn't—and definitely won't be dethroning the one and only real winner, The Untamed, on my personal list anytime soon. 😭 Especially after seeing how they completely fvcked up Lost to You's ending... The Untamed is undoubtedly still my No. 1. 👑

are you also traumatised by lost to you'd ending ? 😭🥀

When I said that, I meant it subjectively—I wasn't comparing the two at all. 😭 I was simply saying that Lost to You might have taken The Untamed's No. 1 spot on my personal list. It was only about my own ranking, not which one is objectively better. I think you're mixing those two things up.

since everyone's appreciating yoonsik as the prosecutor, I also wanna add on and praise siwoo for potraying chaeha!! he's so aegi and fragile esp the way his eyes talk, i actually feel so bad for him 😭💔

I pray for this show to have this same intensity and good writing and execution UNTIL THE VERY END. ✋🏻😭🔥

I notice it the first time ✋🏻😭🔥

I mean he himself admitted when he said, "I miscalculated" 😭🔥

i saw some people commenting why the nc scene had no music but I prefer having no music rather than heavily edited loud ass music 😭🥀🔥

when chaeha was facing the camera with his eyes closed and prosecutor thrusted into him I FELT THAT THROUGH THE PHONE!! HOLY FVCKING AIRBALL 😭🛐🔥

they really shouldn't have given that much screentime to the side couples AND KEPT THEIR SOLE FOCUS ON Zhang Wang & Xu Yuan 😭🥀🔥

whoever wants to believe what they want to but I believe zhan wang got better and they got their happy ending.. fvck the writers

this really was one of the best bls airing UNTIL THAT MF CURSED ENDING 😩🥀

result of brilliant actors, amazing chemistry but BAD execution 😭🥀

ngl i had high hopes ✋🏻😔

I think the funny thing about Seungho is that he's the type to be completely blinded by love. Once he has a crush on someone, it clouds his judgment. He gets so fixated on that one person that everyone and everything else just fades into the background. That's why, even though he arguably had better chemistry with another contestant from our perspective as viewers, he still chose his date with Jinwoo because his crush on him was so obvious. I can't really say the same for Jinwoo, though.

Jiayi really said, "It's a very nice ending. A very happy ending." during one of their lives...

Respectfully...

WHERE, JIAYI? 😭 WHERE?! HUHUUU

ISTG, I loved this drama so much that I was genuinely ready to dethrone my longest-standing—or rather, my only—No. 1 BL of all time: The Untamed. And if you know me, you'll know how insane that is. I've watched well over 100 BLs, yet nothing has ever replaced it—until Lost to You made me think, "Holy shit... this might actually be the one." Jiayi and Chengzhi were phenomenal. Their chemistry was absolutely INSANE, and they made Xu Yuan and Zhan Wang feel so real that I completely forgot I was watching actors. Which is exactly why the finale left me so conflicted.



I'm incredibly relieved they didn't end the story tragically because I spent the entire finale genuinely scared that Zhan Wang was going to die. But once that relief wore off, I realized I wasn't disappointed by what happened—I was disappointed by how it happened. The biggest moment the finale had been building toward happens almost entirely off-screen. We never see the treatment, Xu Yuan waiting for news, or that emotional payoff after everything they'd been through. On top of that, too much time went to the side couples instead of our main couple. I wanted to actually experience their happy ending, not just have it implied. Even the meteor shower sequence could've been more powerful if it had been intercut with Zhan Wang's treatment instead of leaving so much to our imagination.




Despite all of that, I'd still recommend this drama 100% because one finale doesn't erase everything that came before it. Jiayi and Chengzhi delivered incredible performances, and Xu Yuan and Zhan Wang became one of my favorite couples because of how much trust, respect, and unconditional love they shared.




As for my rating, I'm going to hold off for now. I want to give the finale more time to grow on me before deciding where this drama truly belongs in my rankings. This was the first BL in years that made me believe it could finally replace The Untamed. Maybe, after a few rewatches, it'll still get there. Right now, though... I'm just not ready to make that call yet.

Diao and Palm smiling after their kiss - your honour they’re in love.
