Seven and a half couples
I think this whole collage of stories "picturesquely" describes Yun's hair color. Metallic gray, artificial and unnecessary. I love when stories have a happy ending because I think I'm an incorrigible romantic, but here I wished that most couples didn't end up together.
I don't really understand why people don't like the first couple (ep.1&2)? Those two weren't that bad. It was simply to be expected two dead fish considering how much someone tried to avoid kisses. Measles as protection against kisses???Very innovative.
I have to admit that when writing this review, I put Mon and Time as the second pair, which only shows how uninteresting the real second pair was to me. Nuea and Sun(ep.3&4). Bored to death. I don't like to watch series on fast forward and skipping, but I barely survived this story. This combination of actors didn't have chemistry for me even in Cutie pie, so the same goes for this series. Whoever pushes them doing it in the wrong way. Sun as a submissive ? Bitch, please!
Third pair (ep. 5&6), oh God, what can I say? Mon is like an angel, acting is not his strong point, but his sweetness helped me survive those strange faces he made. The chemistry he had with Team was good, but their story and the part with the prince made me vomit... plus Team was shit, but this is BL and everything seems to be forgiven.
Fourth pair (ep 7&8). These two have chemistry as two collaborators/friends. The fake medium and spirit was the fun part, everything else was uninteresting. As a loving couple, they had no chemistry. Everything was poorly explained, rushed and concluded because I don't think the screenwriter had the right vision of how to combine these two. But I understand , they were totally uninspiring.
We got to the fifth couple (ep. 9&10). These two had good chemistry, but let's be honest, the actor who plays Kaeng would have chemistry even with a refrigerator. The sexiness that comes out of his movements, the look that takes off all your clothes... hot as hell .The story was pointless, maybe if they had more episodes to see how that famous falling in love happened and what exactly attracted him to Puth, then maybe, but maybe everything would have made more sense. But, like this, only Kaeng and his - I'll fuck you all - attitude.
Sixth pair (ep 11&12). What on earth was that? A child trapped in an adult's body? This story is not exactly the epitome of originality, although I admit the animated part was cute. BUT!! I simply did not like this story at all. If there were no intimate scenes and if Choke first helped Sat to restore his memory, or to reverse the process, or if anything happened other than what they showed, I would certainly have something positive to say.. But unfortunately I have nothing nice to say, except that the story is creepy.
Seventh triangle (ep. 13&14). Who would normally agree to what Jia agreed ? Consciously - only someone with a psychiatric diagnosis. Imagine that you have a boyfriend, but in his heart and in his head you are always in second place. It's one thing when your rival is alive and you knock him down for love, but when your rival is dead, you have no chance, you will always be the other one. If someone saw this story as romantic, let them take Jia by the hand, direction - psychiatry. No matter how much we fool ourselves, nobody is that good. People should primarily love themselves, if you don't love yourself the most, of course you can't expect that from other people either.
Episode 15 is the biggest cringe, like at the Miss Universe pageant: -"And of course I want peace in the world!!"
I won't comment on how they showed the "progress" of the couples because I would have to use a very large number of rude words and I'm a lady after all. In the end we have seven and a half couples, and no real love story to remember. We only have sexy Papi, and I guess that's something.
Would I recommend this series to anyone - No, unless you think you have an excess of brain cells and don't worry about a few million dying.
p.s. this 10 min special/extra. Why?? I'm just asking you why? We get it Dady doesn't trust Papi. Dady is insecure and a bit sleazy. We get it all, but again I have to ask why this extra? What's the point and message? Did you like what you did with that pathetic last episode so much, that you had to screw up this couple too?
