Falling into Your Smile Episode 18
0 people found this review helpful
Okay, so, a lot of this episode goes as expected. Tong Yao gets suspended for a match and so Lu Yue substitutes in at the mid-lan chair. And while he makes a lot of mistakes that make things difficult for his teammates, the ZGDX team still pulls out the win. Yao is sad. Especially because Si Cheng ignores her, seemingly angry with her. Then finally, in the closing minutes of the episode Cheng and Yao have a talk by themselves about the issue. And this is where, well, the writing kinda stunk it up again. Cheng gets in Yao's face, demanding answers to vague questions and mostly filling the air with the monologue that goes all over the place. He clearly contradicts his own points multiple times during all this. From the very beginning he starts by enumerating how his reputation is harmed and then insists he only cares about her -- but if so, why are you listing how you have been harmed? There are numerous other inconsistencies all over his monologue. It feels like a bad high school debate speech. I mean, the gimmick of demanding she respond to his incredibly vague question with an important and meaningful answer within 7 minutes is just completely arbitrary BS. There is absolutely no 'team leadership' reason for such a gimmick. It's just a stupid contrivance for show purposes. It's all delivered with the expected, 'harsh team captain' tone by Cheng so I can't blame the character or the actor. The writer just had him saying really dumb things. And one of the things really struck me. At one point late in the dialog, he asks her aggressively, "You clearly were only protecting your teammates, so why were you treated like this?" And of course the real answer - the elephant in the room - does not get mentioned. The REAL reason she is being "treated like this" is because of HIS FAMILY. It's painfully obvious that she was targeted on purpose by his mother because she was mad at Si Cheng for rejecting Su Luo. And it's probable that Si Cheng knows this. So while it is true that, yes, Tong Yao should - as a celebrity e-sports star - not have pushed that girl away. But the deeper, hard cold truth is also that the real blame for what happened belongs to Lu Si Cheng's family issues. And I think he knows it. And so behind all the stupid bluster of his (badly written) speech, he almost certainly feels guilty for having put her into this position.

Well, it was inevitable that the "chaebol/toxic family trope" was going to come into effect, given all the hints about Lu Si Cheng's family. And it arrives now with what was obviously a trap set for Tong Yao to walk right into. Pretty clear that Mommy Lu is mad that Cheng rejected Su Luo and she wants to push Tong Yao out of the way.

Her in Focus We’ll be honest — there were moments during Hometown Romance where we were not entirely convinced this series would pull off the ending it needed.But EP8? It finally found the balance.Funny, heartfelt, chaotic in the best way, and packed with the kind of #LMSY chemistry that reminds us why they remain one of Thai GL’s OG pairings.And yes, we absolutely need to discuss the farm-at-the-mansion chaos because Si bringing animals home, the family quietly plotting life lessons, and that buffalo cleanup scene? We were crying laughing.More importantly, the finale finally figured out what the season had been chasing: comedy that actually serves the story.Did it erase every bump from the season? No.Did it make the ride worth finishing? Honestly…yeah.💬 Read our full Hometown Romance EP8 review and tell us: Did the finale win you over? https://bit.ly/4urUZlJ

That made me laugh so hard! I love that scene. They aired it out, honest talk, not the typical "walk away" scenes that i have seen in cdramas.

_stars I have been watching this every week, but now its the end. The ending was underwhelming, is this what I spent so many hours waiting for?? From the beginning Hui-Ju wanted to become a noble, now there is none of that?? And now the King is just some random good looking guy???? In my ideal world Wan and Hui-Ju would have ruled over Korea together, they could loosen the rules a bit. I know Hui-Ju always wanted a trophy husband, but this is not it. Yun I-Rang stole the show, Hui-Ju and Wan are just lovers now. Hui-Ju looked really pretty in her council meeting outfit. What happened to our villain???

estar a good ep - the honeymoon period was cut short cause of Phop's father's additional wives. ironic how even though they r guilty of (idk what) but they got away with "murder" by diverting the attention to Phop & Klao's forbidden romance. & given how i thought Phop's parents would react it was mild in comparison for the mother & the father. given that time period & their statue their reaction was measured & volatile. they didn't fly off the handle - it shoed that they loved their child even if they couldn't accept the person he had fallen in love with. *******************************************************************************but on that note i was kinda surprised how accepting the servant's where Phop & Klao's relationship, again given the time period it wouldn't be shocking if their POV wasn't any different then their masters. but still it was sweet & fun seeing them all "fan girling". **************************************************************************************************************************i have a feeling the one behind the opium trade is Harn's father Wanna's Uncle - as is i suspected that Harn was the rat the informed Cherd about the fact that the drugs weren't burned but stored. but this just a guess so idk if it's the father & son involved or just the father or it's someone else. time will tell - but was right in suspecting Pim, just was worn in that she wasn't the master mind behind Cherd, she was just lying & that's was she seemed suspect. 3 more eps to go, hope we don't get all the answers in the last ep & it's a rush job

IrenaK Su Muyu with his new attitude is like a pain in their necks now—strong-willed, with his own vision, uncooperative, and a tough nut to crack. 👏🤭I wonder what that water official will do if he wants to break free from his status and become just another member of the Su family. I guess many of those bound ones, in truth, just want control over their own choices and actions, rather than spending their lifetime carrying out someone else's orders. 🤔Another episode without Rabbit and Tortoise. 😞

viola That last scene killed me. It was both so funny and so cringe, which again, reminds me of older romcoms. I like that this show knows its theme and will stick to it. I was worried they'd go overboard with Segye chasing after Seori even after her repeated rejections, so I liked that instead he retreated from her because of his hurt pride because that makes more sense in terms of his character. Consort Kang's stubborn personality also finally gets some kickback at the set, which is far more interesting to see for her character. We also get a little bit more with Mun-do. You have to sympathize with a guy who's doing everything he can to take over a position only to find out that his uncle will always give it to the guy who doesn't even want it. But at the same time Mun-do is clearly also deranged, so....

ima be the odd one out as Yan Zhi's annoying the f*ck out of me, Yin Qi keeps telling him to stop, not to trust any deal with the Crown prince, what does this moron do?!? 1st chance he gets, he is scheming behind Yin Qi's back & running to the Crown Prince. i have said this time & time again, the Crown Prince isn't reliable in the least & Yan Zhi who has grown up in that palace, knows 1st hand how evil the Crown Prince can be. yet he trusts him to keep his word??? why??? why is his word worth more then the word of the person he supposedly loves?? he is treating Yin Qi as if he is stupid ******************************************side note: i feel like most viewer's got a hard-on for the Crown Prince cause he's a "freak in the sheets" i am over him & his psychotic ass behavior & BDSM was never my cup of tea- he's not attractive or cute in the least IMO. but i enjoyed him slapping Zi Ming, as he is a character i detest even more then i do the CP

Eui Ju should've told Ga U Su the real reason she wanted to stop writing, then i doubt his advice would be the same. idk why she chose to say it was cause of homework or lack of time... she's basically setting up herself for a really painful fall. & idk why she thought talking to that stuck up b*tch, mean girl would work - has that girl every been remotely friends or kind towards her or any of the other girls in that class? (other then her click & the other smart girls??) i didn't notice, if she was. if anything she was a bully & a mean girl the only times we saw anything of her. ********************************************************************so why Eui Ju think there was any point trying to approach her idk. also the transfer student girl is a bit of an airhead & she usually is so disconnected from all the other girls in that class, even the group she hangs with. but the sec the pompous ass approached & told her about Eui Ju writing a BL - why wouldn't she give Eui Ju the heads up? or say something??? am sure then Eui Ju would've been forewarned if nothing else. now i am dreading watching the next ep - which will be the mean, jealous b*tch spilling the beans & trying to destroy Eui Ju, cause Ga U Su is friendlier to her ugh - but wont lie am curious how the guys gonna react reading how they got portrayed in Eui Ju's BL lol

Seo-ri and Se-gye are perfect for each other. They both deserve to be loved. Seo-ri has been through the mill, she is such a strong woman to still be smiling after all that. I felt really bad for the dog😖why are people so evil. Seo-ri rejecting Se-gye was hilarious.

TRIGONOMETRY I died in the airplane scenes. I paused, I stood up, I struck my head against the wall, 5 minutes later, the same thing repeated. Yet I loved it.

NLE I honestly don’t understand how some Thai BLs get so much attention when the plot is weak, the acting feels cringe, and the story goes nowhere. Meanwhile, Lost to You is so underrated even though it is genuinely one of the best series I’ve watched recently.This series is not just another BL. The storytelling, emotional depth, and character development are on another level. Episode 3 completely broke me and had me crying so much. The way the emotions slowly build and make you attached to the characters feels so real and natural.Every scene feels meaningful, and the pain, love, and struggles of the characters stay with you even after the episode ends. It is rare to find a BL where the plot itself is this strong while also delivering such emotional impact. Lost to You deserves so much more recognition because this is the kind of series that reminds you how powerful storytelling can be
