Lovely Writer Special Episode (2021)

Cute but not a must-watch.

It was a little random, I guess is the best way to describe it. There was horror, pranking, heartbreak, abuse, and cuteness. It was a lot to fathom in less than two hours.

The straight couple getting married. How surprising. Did anyone ask for that? Sorry if that sounds rude, but seriously? Is it that difficult to let us have a cute gay wedding? They made it seem like gay couples are completely different from straight couples. When it comes to weddings, I wouldn't say there is much difference, though. It's hard for me to explain, but basically, it felt like Nubsib and Gene had to be together longer to actually know whether they were right for each other, whereas the straight couple could jump right into it.

Aoey and Mhok's brief appearances arose even more questions. Both of them seemed miserable. Aoey had a boyfriend? It didn't seem as if he was actually in love with whoever he spoke to, though. Mhok obviously wasn't over Aoey. I didn't get why they had to bring it up to leave it the same as before.

What was the purpose of Book and his boyfriend? Was it simply to give Nubisb and Gene an excuse to make up? Poor Book, honestly. He had just been abused and dumped by his boyfriend, and then Gene and Nubsib just acted all cutesy in front of him. Also, we never saw him again after that. It felt rather unnecessary.

Despite all of that, Gene and Nubsib were still incredibly adorable together. Well, mostly. Both of them acted wrong. Neither should have lied to the other. It was worrying that they had been together for two years and still weren't able to communicate. It took all of that silliness for them to realize how to treat each other? I just felt Gene especially took it too far. I understand that he must have felt a little betrayed by Nubsib, but threatening to kill yourself or someone else is too much. That wasn't getting revenge. It was just hurtful. He was lucky Nubsib had already figured it out because otherwise, he might have actually ruined their relationship.

Anyway, I'm happy they ended up even more in love. I didn't need this special episode, especially considering that it's paid content. That said, I also didn't feel like I wasted my time. Kao and Up have amazing chemistry, and that is the biggest reason to watch this.

Their chemistry is worth it, but that's 15 minutes between a nonsense of special episode.

It didn't add anything worth it tbh. Just more couple moments and kisses, not complaining about that but you could sum up all that in 15 minutes and call it a day.

Another silly misunderstanding, and the character growth nowhere to be found. Gene keeps being unreasonable and puts himself and how he feels over trying to be a bit more understanding and putting more effort into the relationship, is always the other part that has to understand him. Sib keeps using white lies to get the things that he wants. 2 years and their communication is still worrisome.

The important plots during the episode, like abuse and mental health only were used as a tool with no ending or importance... You cannot show me a couple that has a guy being abussed and beaten the crap outa it by his boyfriend and move on without that having a propper endind or any relevance for anything.
And let's not talk about yet again another ending wedding for the straight couples that most likely only 4 cats are truly invested or care about.

I still love the couple, the series and everything in between, but my expectations about the series at the beggining were higly different, the main plots that i expected them to cover, like an older couple relationship between two working adults, one being an actor and the other the writer of the novel and having to deal with the entertainment industry and fandoms, were more like a side dish that wasn't even that full. The meal is over, and i am still hungry.

Their chemistry is worth it, but like i said, that's 15 minutes between a nonsense of special episode.
