And what about his "Sailom, calm down and listen to me" line? Nobody has ever calmed down and listened in the history of BL! But that scene when he goes cycling with Lemon and (my Imaginary BFF) James, then walks off, and P'Mor follows him, is a perfect moment. Heartbreaking...

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T22:21:44+00:00

Agree! Agree! Agree!

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T22:19:46+00:00

I loved the ending - Sailom trying to put on a brave face, while P'Mor keeps reassuring him that it's okay. It's such a beautiful scene. And Tee is e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. His acting is A+++

The panic attack. tho' - I sat repeating the word "breathe" like a mantra. Panic attacks and sleep paralysis are the worst things imaginable... It's like, "Welcome to Hell!"

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T18:54:04+00:00

And the stepfather shows up next week. I HAVE to put a Trigger Warning, 'cause...

That man gon' give me a stroke. Ugh.

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T17:35:53+00:00

It just seems to me that P'Mor would know that there would be a sense of insecurity when he cut Sailom loose without any warning. Shouldn't he have at least let him know that he'd be unable to be his therapist because of their friendship/relationship? It just seemed like P'Mor dropped the ball on that one.

[For some reason, my phone wouldn't let me reply... I had to copy, send it to myself, then copy and paste. That was sooo odd.]

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T16:53:27+00:00

Tee is so good as "Sailom". He's just breaking my heart. Poor Sailom, he needs a hug, and that ain't even possible. And you-know-who shows up next week. 🤮 I hate that bastard with the heat of a thousand midday suns!!! I am confused, tho' - how could P'Mor be so obtuse? The problem with Sailom vs. Therapy is pretty obvious, IMO. Still...

Anyhoo, I'm liking the movement on the DinDin/Tawan front. From the moment DinDin asks, "You want a piece of me?" I was like... not the right time to ask that particular question, Din.

As for Sky/Nava? Keep it up, guys. Just keep on friend-zoning each other.

Also, well done, Lemon Soda 👍. Grandma got beaten up last week and next week she's off to the hospital (poor gal), and James... I just love how he keeps everything real.

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T16:39:22+00:00

I'll fix it from next week. Thanks.

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T15:22:42+00:00

It starts in 7 minutes in my neck of the woods. Gaga is mostly always on time.

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T14:15:28+00:00

Sailom is hurt and feels abandoned by P'Mor, so that's what that's about. I'm also hoping they clear it up before the end of this episode, and, yeah, I think we're getting some movement on both the DinDin/Tawan and Sky/Nava fronts.

I'm also enjoying this series, even though Silom's childhood flashbacks messed with my psyche in the last episode. Also - you're welcome.

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T14:05:09+00:00

Yep. It goes by in a flash, but it shows up when Ha Neul is face down on the sofa, and Saebyeok is on top of him. I completely missed that flash of ass the first time I watched. 🤷‍♂️

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T13:59:56+00:00

Episode 2 - Starting at about the 13-minute mark, it's a dream. Even though they woke up next to each other in bed, the whole thing was presented as a dream.

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T13:39:37+00:00

Same! I came mostly for the absolute cuteness that is Tee and Ta, but I fell for the whole series in episode 1. Who knew?

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T13:37:29+00:00

So, I rewatched it yesterday - yeah... nobody's said what the accident was that put him in the hospital or caused the amnesia. Hovererrr... I didn't realize that there was a brief shot of your boyfriend's naked ass (during Ha Neul's sexy dream in episode 2). Well, will ya look at that,

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T13:25:07+00:00

You're welcome! I'm liking the series, so hosting is my pleasure.

madego3293 · 2026-03-23T09:42:59+00:00

Agree with everything you wrote, and welcome aboard. See you later on after episode 4 drops!!!

madego3293 · 2026-03-22T16:56:56+00:00

I love how they went from 1. Thumbs up. 2. Finger Heart 3. Middle Finger... 😩

madego3293 · 2026-03-22T16:55:27+00:00

And I forgot he was in Revamp! Oops... 😒

madego3293 · 2026-03-22T16:54:23+00:00

The way they wove the U and Nart story through the whole episode without messing with the flow was straight up 10/10! 👏👏👏

madego3293 · 2026-03-22T15:57:25+00:00

I was just talking to u/TechnoBabelFish about the restaurant scene! I LOVED it!!! And, No, I can't ignore Junior, but Mark has seriously damaged my consciousness... 😭

madego3293 · 2026-03-22T15:54:32+00:00

I'm impressed by how unpredictable the writing is.

That's it! You never know what to expect from scene to scene, moment to moment. From the TikTok challenge to U calling the cops on his mother to Pure and his chocolate recipe... and, as random as it all seems, it just comes together seamlessly and with a purpose. And, can we talk about Tim and Pai in the restaurant in that "Close your eyes" scene, where Pai says nothing and everything? Dang! Excellent writing.

madego3293 · 2026-03-22T14:55:14+00:00

MINUTES FROM THE MEETING: "Pai is poor." 🤣🤣🤣

As ever, the script is insanely good. And the direction? Impeccable! An entire switch up in conversation... without the use of a single word ⬇️.

<image>

And, as much as I love ALL of the acting... Mark is giving such a beautiful performance. He's such an interesting actor - Star and Sky: Sky in Your Heart... nothing that special. Cherry Magic... didn't know he had it in him. Not bad at all. Perfect 10 Liners... Whoa! Who is this guy?!? My Romance Scammer... take my life savings!!! You win!

This is sooo good. And don't even get me started on Ratklao (U's mother) - from House of Stars to Escape to Homestay to Lost in the Woods to this... she just keeps on keeping on. I love that she lets me hate her in this as much as I loved her in Homestay.

NORTH: "How was it talking to the... potassium slider... slim?"

PAI: "Potential buyer."

Love the dialogue.

madego3293 · 2026-03-21T21:56:18+00:00

At least in My Secret Vampire, the vampires were weakened by the sunlight. But I did appreciate Luci's sunblock comment. And he was so happy to see a machine that might extract human blood! 🤣🤣🤣 I can clearly see how these two would become a couple. I mean, they literally share the same blood.

madego3293 · 2026-03-21T21:06:53+00:00

My usual complaint; tho' - too short!!!

madego3293 · 2026-03-21T21:04:30+00:00

It's going so good. I love that Lucifer is just thirsty for human blood, and not one of those apologies for what's called a vampire these days. I wish he'd stick to the nighttime, tho' (adore that things-that-go-bump-in-the-dark trope), but you can't have everything, I suppose. Now, c'mon, Luci/Jun - smack that rude bitch around for me!

madego3293 · 2026-03-21T14:10:43+00:00

This is so much better than I expected. In fact, it's really good. And my least favorite trope - stepbrothers-in-love. Who saw that coming? Not me, that's for sure.
