i aint gonna sit through this train wreck…

i aint gonna sit through this train wreck (not even 5 mins in and had enough!) i will repeat what i wrote in the pervious ep, this an abusive relationship!! *************************************************************************************************************Seo Joon's the battered wife that got her bones broken, n now Ji Woo (the abuser) is contrite, back with "roses" in hand begging for forgiveness n understanding, telling his wife how he was insecure n scared, lashed out cause she was insensitive n inconsiderate... but he is big enough to forgive n say sorry if he treated her unjustly. cause deep down he really loves her, wants her back, cause he can't live without her. ********************************************************************************************n it's so ingrained in the abused partner that "they at fault" (cause this it taught from childhood), that this is "what they deserve". so at least they can take solace in the fact, that their partner loves them, so anything they do comes from love n they will forgive n forget - this cycle of abuse isn't new or unheard of. the out come isn't new either... what is shocking (idk why, should be use to how fickle most viewer's r￣へ￣), reading all the comments cheering this type of 'ship' cause it's "realistic"(≧∇≦) talk bad joke. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Ji Woo is a disgusting douche that hurt Yoon Seul, explaining it away as unexperienced youth. yet he the injured part when he broke Yoon Seul's heart?!? he hurt Seo Joon cause his parents died? Seo Joon's parents abandoned him - no biggy, right?. it's not the fact that Ji Woo's a spineless nothing, that seeing Seo Joon's fame n success got jealous as in comparison he felt like a nobody? that's why he loved treating Seo Joon like his servant in the 1st season. that made him smile - but no point saying anything more... cause u either see the absurdity of calling this a romance or a happy ending. this just sad! **********************Yoon Seul deserves better, n i hope people like him (in real life) realize this fact, before it's too late ✌

Five Stars

I was not expecting this episode to be that good. It was just great. Ji Woo's crying made me cry too and the kissing scenes were just amazing. Korean BLs are now getting better and better. I mean this series was totally worth watching, it had a deep story and the characters were so realistic and I just love the relationship between them. The only problem with this series was that I waited for this season for quite some time and I was expecting to see more of their relationship that is why I was a little disappointed but that doesn't make it any less good . It was great, definetely worth watching. And now I'll start to wait for them to announce a third season because this series is giving me goosebumps in a good way.

A work of art!

HJW = Han Ji Woo
KSJ = Kang Seo Joon

First of all, this episode is 43mins long?!!! UM WOW?!!

There were so many impactful lines in this episode alone. Here are just some of them:
HJW says: “Then, you too. Don’t have frequent calls with others. And don’t laugh. I’m the jealous type. I won’t let you do it.” and KSJ responds “All this time, you acted like it was nothing.” and HJW responds saying “I’ve been holding it in all this time. Had I say it, I was afraid it’ll affect your job”. These lines, alone, explain things so thoroughly it is incredible. The scriptwriting on this drama is incredible. I love how transparent, comfortable and sincere the two are. They begin to realise that they are extremely dependent on each other, which is absolutely adorable. It also brings out explanations for HJW’s cold behaviour in Episodes 1-6, showing how HJW truly cares for KSJ, enough to put himself on the line to ensure KSJ’s career does not go haywire. An act of love!

HJW’s caring & empathetic nature is brought about so well in this episode, and I was grinning from ear to ear in so many parts of this episode. Another line said by KSJ to HJW says “Are you a baby? What a blabbering crybaby” DAMN in the midst of their transparency KSJ is also able to inject humby teasing HJW.. wow!

My absolute favourite scene of the entire drama is also in this episode. From 6:30 to 8:30, the portion where they’re on the staircase and HJW asks for a hug, this has to be one of the most touching and heartwarming scenes of all time. At the 11th minute, the chemistry was already GOING OFF THE ROOF. Their chemistry in this episode has to be one of the best chemistries I’ve seen in dramas of all time. The way they fall back on each other when they face adversities, the way they take turns to hug each other on the bed, they way they actively tease each other, the love that is so overwhelming even as a viewer, romance and chemistry was so successfully executed in this episode and I will most definitely be rewatching this episode again, and again. It is so good.

One can see how KSJ changes when he’s with HJW too. KSJ appears to be much more bubbly, lively and overall active compared to his previous self without HJW. He even answers calls now!

Another portion of this episode I would like to touch on is Yoo Ha’s involvement. She absolutely girlbossed when confronting the little kid who spread rumours about KSJ.

And of course, needless to say, HJW (or shall I say KSJ’s hubby) is the first to know about any news related to him?!

There were extremely good links to Season 1 too, and another star line appears. “You (HJW) once asked me (KSJ) why I loved you despite our differences… I guess I like you for who you are”. UM!??? THIS IS SO CUTE LOL OMG

Also lord have mercy on me because the two of them are both wearing rings on their ring finger. It’s so cute I absolutely cannot. I told myself I wouldn’t write another review because I’m so caught up with schoolwork, but this episode was so so so so so so stunning. Incredible work of art and in totality, made me absolutely prefer this season compared to the very first season. Finally some representation for Korea BL!

Last of all, their chemistry is also strengthened when HJW says this line, “I mean.. I just fear the whole world may find out how handsome KSJ is”. The use of irony here! KSJ is a celebrity so the fact that HJW says this line makes their love life even more impactful, one where HJW realises he’s got the man of his dreams in his possession and no one else, not even his fans, can compare to HJW. So lucky eh, HJW?~

Interestingly, the extended metaphor of the star and the universe is brought out through the last episode as well. Good move by the scriptwriting to convey the show’s message again! Wonderful and splendid episode, I hope a season 3 comes out!

This episode gets a solid 10/10 from me :) If i could give it 11, I would.

Angsty but ultimately very healing

**Spoilers ahead, you have been warned**I'm sure like everyone else who watched the first season of to my star ultimately held very high expectations for this season. And how could we not? the first season was as close to perfection as I've ever seen. I've never taken the time to write a review for any show/movie EVER so it's quite a big deal for me actually do it, happy to know that it was this show that ultimately gave me the courage to finally go for it. Jiwoo and Seojoon hold a very close place in my heart, from the very first moment they came on my screen. They're as different as day and night yet their interactions together make magic.Now I'll admit when I first started watching the second season I was not happy with the direction that the story was going I felt like there was a lof of unnecessary drama and the focus on the side characters was too much, but for some reason I still tuned in every single week eager to see the angst (thinking about it now maybe I'm just a masochist lmao) and despite telling myself that they shouldn't get back together because of all the resentment they both held, I found myself secretly hoping and rooting for them that they'd work everything out and get back together. Of course since this is originally a genereally 'happy and healing' drama, I got what I wanted but wow was it a long and painful journey getting there. The thing I applaud the most about this season is Jiwoo's agonisingly slow but realistic character development, by the last episode the shy, soft spoken man from season one was gone and a confident and open man had taken his place. He made sure seojoon knew he was loved, and their communication had improved so much it was insane. Also can I just point out how refreshing it is to see a well written queer story WITHOUT homophobia or a sexual identity freak out?? Seojoon and jiwoo did have to hide their relationship but not for the reasons one would assume and I just found that so nice and refreshing. ANYWAYS, this remains to be the best Korean BL I have ever watched and I couldn't recommend it more!! Please give it a chance because you won't regret it!
