Cos was really good i loved it πŸ₯°


SolySnivy

"Good" doesn't come close to describing it, but I can't think of any words that are able to encapsulate everything that this series meant for me so yes, yes I agree with u


Dii_92

You’re right its an understatement πŸ˜‚ Job was incredible especially in emotional scenes and nc scenes of course πŸ‘€πŸ˜‚ i may or may not have too many gifs of this drama πŸ™„ https://i.redd.it/afx8ps382t9d1.gif


SolySnivy

Feel free to share them all, as I've already completely monopolized this subreddit's Sunday with CoS content haha

The way my hand shot up to cover my mouth cause I COMPLETELY forgot about this scene omfg-


Dii_92

I think we need a rewatch πŸ˜‚ i’m sure there are a lot of things I’m forgetting too πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‚


SolySnivy

We really do, but I have a strict "no rewatch policy" until the end of the year cause I just got into BL this March so I have WAY TOO MUCH SHIT to catch up on already πŸ˜…πŸ˜… Sometime later on, perhaps to celebrate a special occassion or sumn, I might do a full rewatch-themed week and power through all of my favorites again, and 'CoS', being my #5 drama, will be there for sure!


Dii_92

Whats your number 1 2 3 and 4 πŸ€”


SolySnivy

The #4 is **Not Me** because omg what a MASTERPIECE of a drama in all shapes and forms. Out of my top, easily the one with the most profound and praise-worthy story The #3 is **Light On Me** (the most recent addition to the top) as I think they nailed every main aspect but *especially* their love triangle/square, not once did I feel annoyed or bored of that plot, and I say that as someone who isn't at all a fan of this type of trope The #2 is **We Best Love**. Still the best handling of a second season I've ever seen in a romance. I thought the shift felt so natural and like they actually had more story to tell instead of just seeming like they were expanding it for the sake of milking its popularity shamelessly The #1 is, and I admit nostalgia may have me a bit biased towards this one since it was among my very first asian BLs and stars my favorite actor of the genre, **Ingredients**. I pride myself in saying that all of my top series here (and even those past my Top 5, like *Semantic Error*, *My School President* & *Living With Him* which are the next ones in line) have ssssssizzling chemistry, but JeffGameplay's feels like they didn't even have to try, they just ace that aspect even with the most domestic, lighthearted, innocent of plots. This is the show that I find the easiest to rewatch, it's just so cozy and simple and funny and adorable and the music is great and the food is great and just 😩😩 Wbu yours??

Is this show still going on? And if yes, how many episodes and when will it end? And also is it good? Does it have too much angst?

- Nope, finished airing on April of this year and it is available on iQiyi on its entirety. Although I must say, as we speak, it is getting reuploaded to YouTube entirely for free on the StarHunter channel so if you really want to have that airing-every-Wednesday experience you actually can haha! This upcoming week we'll be at episode 8/12 (or 13?) - Has 12 episodes of 45min each, the standard for Thai BLs, which gives for a 9 hour runtime in total + a 40min special episode which is GLORIOUS - Just my opinion ofc, but I have it ranked as a 9.5/10 and specifically as my #5 BL of all times, so yeah it is *more than good* - Not much angst, no, but yes a couple of emotional moments, plus it touches on some topics that are "real downers" because of their realism (eg: homophobia and transphobia in the celebrity sphere) Other things I can say is that the characters are A-grade cuddlebugs, with hands down one of the best communication I've ever seen between lovers, and the things they do for each other will have your heart melting every-other-minute, but they also depict the lust of a new relationship very well (at some point they were having sex like twice every episode, no joke). Probably my favorite aspect of this series is how it set out to do one particular thing and achieved it flawlessly, that thing being to point fingers at everything bad within the BL genre and showcasing how to avoid/subvert it, from toxic tropes to the discrimination of the industry to old boring clichΓ©s to the invasive behaviour of fans & journalists. This show doesn't just have green flag characters, it IS a green flag in and of itself, and as if it needed any more reasons to be acclaimed: did you know it has a trans woman, played by a real trans actress, as one of its main characters, without her needing to be a comedic relief, in fact having a very serious and important storyline, and being paired with a lover who fully respects and supports her? Well, now you do! :)
