idk why - maybe cause of the poster where Guy looks like the pervy - teacher/senior invading the uncomfortable juniors/students personal space (cause Nut look's hella uncomfortable) i've taken an instant dislike to him. so his attitude, getting touchy feely with a person u just met, let alone the constant flirtation is a turn-off. and i really don't get why everyone acting like he hot - IMHO he NOT. add to this the fact that this whole ep was "off" plot wise, the sub's aint accurate, or the fact that everyone a newbie - all this just emphasizes how "off" this whole ep felt. and cause of that, it keeps taking me out of the plot and keep wondering if i aint reading everything wrong. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Nut is sweet but i didn't like the "in ur face" sex scene at the start i guess as this progresses we will "get" why it started off with that, let alone how jaded Nut seemed after the fact. makes me wonder who the dude was - was this his life - as in, random hook-up's? or was that the future and him after a hook-up with Guy?!? left to be seen. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the group of friends is cute - but until Mark came to pick-up Sa i was SURE that Mick and Sa were an item. and then Mick more or less tells Nut that he waiting for him to "pop the question... joke" but anyone with eyes can see the dude in love with Nut. just Nut has friend-zoned him, so he rather be "friends" and close to him, then confess - get rejected and lose that closeness... that's why he seems jealous of how Guy is "circling" Nut. will have to see more to know if i'm right or wrong ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

am really disliking Takuma, when he finally came in search of Reiji, got down on his knees to apologize and Reiji told him he doesn't have too, as he isn't at fault - how much would it cost him to say the same to Reiji?!? he couldn't find those words in his heart - really? he went on about the music he makes and wanting to cherish that - seriously infuriating. get it comes from insecurity and wanting to keep it on the platonic level, but they been friends for how long?!? why is loving someone a crime - he didn't force his love on him, or even on that despicable Yusuke (who knew full well he didn't have Reiji's heart and never would, but still latched on in the hope's... he at fault for his own delusions. Reiji for sure didn't feed them plz) ugh that was just annoying to watch. plus - hug a person - and i guess Japanese people don't hug - or some such, but this cold distant attitude when a person is hurting, is something i can't get. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw i think that Komori's got spies working for Etsuko, how he always know where everyone in Indigo AREA at - all the time he got tons of info about them. also the fact that Etsuko's boss knows who is got it in for the group and yet has done nothing to safe guard them, is just mindboggling. then what is the point of signing with him?!? even Etsuko not doing that good of a job really caring for that group. but i guess her job is to make money off of them, not be mother and caregiver - little wonder they ended up in this situation. i think they should break-up. they need to heal - the band or music will come when they have healed and ready to start a new...

thank god for the preview's - considering how things where looking, i was gonna lose it. get everyone self-centered when it comes down to it. but seriously everyone talking the talk, but not actually doing a thing. Reiji is in the middle of a storm and the people closet to him, abandoned him. Takuma that isn't faulting him, hasn't bothered to contact the main person and tell him that, he going to talk to Etsuko¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . and when Reiji comes in search of him to apologize OMO this dude tells him, he has to ask forgiveness of Yusuke - really?!? u don't know what when on between them, don't get involved - talk about what involves u - tell Reiji that even though u can't love him back the way he want's, u still care for him - that he is important to u (that too much to ask?!?) be a friend, support him in his time of need instead of turning around and f*cking off, like WTF! *************************************************************************************************************************same with Jun Hee - she spent the whole day in a haze, or surfing the message boards, like come on. she was in the eye of the storm not long ago and is in hiding, can't she find compassion for her friends?!? and considering that band together over a decade, they more family - but she got time to help strangers? this was a Very frustrating ep... everyone rather talk then actually do something to show their words have worth. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************same with Tsugumi, she moved into that place as house keeper and isn't working or trying to settle things with her husband - this solve what? i get that place is more safe-house and shelter that some spend their whole lives in. but neither Ren nor Jun Hee r Granny - they not old, having lived most of their lives just waiting for death. let alone her husband already tried to abduct her son - what happens next time? like i wrote - frustrating!

OMO what an ep, seriously think everyone from Indigo AREA should come hide-out in the guest house. and Hino, like WTF not enough he almost damaged Reiji's hand and made it hard to use for who knows how long, he still so vengeful he had to sell their story to the press?!? feel so bad for Reiji he was outted to Takuma and considering Takuma's reaction, little wonder it broke him - watching that broke my heart. hope after the initial shock Takuma will reassure him that they still "good". **************************************************************************************************************************************but that takes the focus off Jun Hee - sad irony in that. but was getting really annoyed at the lot of them - they keep acting like they care, but every word out of their mouth, screamed self-serving b.s - and i get it, it's their livelihood so they can't just let Jun Hee be / heal / take her time, cause the clock is ticking and they already lost the contract. but they still in the public eye and the sooner they make a comeback, the better chances they got of recovering - and yet considering how damaged Jun Hee is (she thinks she doesn't have the right to cry¯\_(ツ)_/¯ like WTAF) i don't think she will ever be ready - even her living in that guest house is pure escapism, like her wanting to keep it running and invite more wounded souls - it's a diversion. cause she not dealing with her own problems, just pushing them to the side and focusing on others. that won't solve a thing, the sec she back in the lime light everything will be the same. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************as much as i dislike Haruki, that moron should rethink who he has aligned himself with - a person who is willing to destroy others to "make" him - what happens the sec Haruki strays out of line? but he a moron so maybe it's just desserts (¬_¬ ) bottom line don't really care for him

first off why oh why they have to reshow that concert, as if i didn't cringe enough to last a life time in the previous ep, i really couldn't rewatch it this time around. and glad someone voiced that forcing Jun Hee was the cause of that mess - cause lets face it, the other 3 member's of that group and their manager browbeat and manipulated her emotionally, into agreeing to the concert. when she wasn't ready in any way shape or form. but sadly she is also to blame - by bowing her head and enabling it.what i kinda don't get - she is the band - like it or not, she makes that band unique, she is the star and that was the main reason Haruki couldn't keep being a part of Indigo AREA, cause the focus would never been on him and him alone, and even if his vocals r good they not on par with Jun Hee's talent. so the fact that she keeps bowing her head and asking permission form everyone else, in that band is mindboggling, confusing and infuriating - but also saddening as it shows how broken she is mentally - so we need backstory ASAP. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw the member's in that bad r a mess - Reiji and his relationship, like talk bonkers. that not healthy and little wonder Yusuke went a little postal on Reiji's ass. that's a long tine coming - ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************and really hate the dude managing Haruki, he supposed to make Haruki a success - but he more interested in demolishing Indigo AREA, like why ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i don't get the logic behind his actions. aish this a emotional roller coaster

that end was so predictable, even though who the frack is Ji-Woo?!? but back track to before, like i knew would happen - the sec she made it back, she was basically browbeaten, pushed and prodded into agreeing to keep that band alive. know everyone is in it for themselves, but the bottom line was that they didn't really care for her, just the music she could produce and the position and fame it had gotten them. so they used all the tricks in the book, to makes her agree without actually holding a gun to her head. so the out come aint astounding - she wasn't ready to face her reality, that's why even after Ren got her a phone, she didn't contact anyone - cause she knew she couldn't deal. the outcome is sad *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Takuma confessing to her - came at a wrong time cause now it feels like manipulation - even though pretty sure he been holding a candle for her since they met. but choosing this moment even if it was cause he didn't want to keep the secret and wanted to come clean so she would know. at this particular moment it's just pure manipulation. same with Mitsuru announcing he gonna be a father - like plz ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw Reiji not gay(?) and is really just roommates with a dude that for sure wants more with him?!? WTH is going on here - and feel like Reiji for sure into Takuma. but after this ep there more questions then answers.

another great ep, but i aint happy with the ending. i don't feel she is ready to go back to her old life - she aint strong enough even though i guess her standing up for her coworker was supposed to show us that she is - that aint the same, that is for sure growth in the direction, she should be taking - but it's baby steps. considering how everyone has railroaded her into situations and she has just been drifting with the flow - see where it has landed her emotionally and mentally, she not ready to go back. cause she will again be browbeaten by everyone's wants and needs - so what little headway she started making will be for not, Aish it's hurting my heart. **********************************************************************************************************but loved her relationship with the single mother. loved that scene, it was bitter sweet and i cried at how touching and supportive it was. Jun Hee more then anyone needs to see how other woman live and deal with life's hardships, cause until now she has be shoved into a box where she can't raise her head - everyone expectation's have blinded her to what is good and right let alone, who she is. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also seeing her group there is so much going on like is (has always been) Takuma in-love with Jun Hee? and considering Reiji is gay is he interested in Takuma and Mitsuru in him?!? whats for sure they all used Jun Hee but didn't really treat her as anything but an ends to a mean - same with Etsuko their manager. let alone Haruki the douche.. that's why i don't think Jun Hee is ready to stand up to them and demanded respect. what's for sure loving how complex this is turning out to be - can't wait for more

loved this - was just thinking (watching the start) when would Jun Hee start to change, cause the browbeaten, submissive cowering version isn't enjoyable - it's almost like she has been broken and what was even more disturbing she kept and keeps taking those lies as truths and blaming herself - the self flagellation is the worse, cause then what will help u understand that u r not the one at fault, that u deserve better and grow from there... so it was worrying to watch and depressing cause i needed her to get stronger ASAP lol i know that isn't how this is gonna work - so her literally waking up in a magical place was soothing and reassuring as this is totally what she needs, a break from reality. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************love these type's of places that exist in the real world and yet they r mystical and magical - like a much needed oasis for the soul. the granny running that haven, is a total angle - sad to know the reality behind that, but i guess only a suffering soul can recognize another - let alone offer the balm that gives relief. so yup Loved this. this is exactly what Jun Hee needs - heck after the 1st ep and the start of this one, this is what i needed ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - i can't wait for Haruki downfall and i hope when he tries to crawl back groveling, Jun Hee is in a better place and doesn't help him.

talk emotional roller coaster - reading the description knew i was in for a ride, but come on why she have to be this subservient? i get u act stupid when ur in-love. but she knew in her heart and her head that Haruki had Moved On and yet she wasn't facing it, why? even all her interview speeches were to placate him and massage his ego - in the hopes of keeping him from abandoning her? and of course he the typical narcissist everything was her fault, he was the poor abused partner that was suffering in their relationship. but watching this ep, it's clear he used her from the start. like he used that band to shine and now that they r - he doesn't like sharing the spotlight - so this is his go..if she had even an ounce of self-worth left, she would've done more then bow and take all the crap he heaped on top of her head, she for sure wouldn't cover from Megumi, who didn't even consider her as anything, as she openly cheated on her with her man. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************this wasn't a fun watch, ironically yesterday dropped Double Fantasy cause of the FL and how she was treating her subservient husband, while blaming him of all her shortcomings - that really was detestable and i couldn't stomach more of that drama, even though it was short. here lets hope we over the rough part and she start rebuilding that spine - cause she needs to stand-up for herself and not let people walk all over her, like this. that's why i'm worried that the ML is already introduced - i don't like people jumping from one 'ship' into another. u need to breath, be alone and heal - idk just hope each ep aint this draining emotionally

having a really hard time agreeing with others, that this is getting better - it isn't only that the plot is all over the place - the acting is so so and connecting the dots is just tiresome. wont say i'm bored, but really wish things would get clearer. Luke and Calix still butting heads - heck Calix and his crew robbing Luke and at every turn, butting heads with his group - even the girls and idk what this is supposed to mean, other then a free-for-all. and Luke's random "put down" that seemed more of a complement that "Calix's package was huge", so confused. as confused seeing Luke eyeing Juanmig's cousin Kristoff, of all people - like what was that all about. feels like i'm back a square one - not knowing who is indented for whom. even though Cairo eyeing Juanmig when he was walking along the beach with his cousin means he finally noticed him - but have to say nothing certain here. 7 more to go and i really hope everything starts getting clearer. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** btw why character's here bossing their friends around like they their servant's?!? like Luke's ex and her gf. like WTF is that all about and why even be friends with a person like her? let alone the whole Calix family plot line, that mother is really getting under my skin - wish they would just focus on the couples and not all this side fluff that is just unnecessary. IMHO

some thing's have been cleared up like Juanmig working in the resort owned by his mother (parent's?!? hasn't mentioned a father so idk) and his befriending Cairo was a very "smooth" move, even though i didn't think that is how things would go down - cause they seem like normal straight guys, just making new friends and not potential anything. Cairo for sure isn't showing he interested in Juanmig - he got his own "stuff" like his parents wanting him to move to another country and him not wanting to leave his friend's and life in the Philippines. so (and i know this just the 2nd ep) but this plot moving at a snail's pace - hope this starts to take shape and we see some type of development - cause as much as i appreciate the need for back-story. i really don't need to see Calix's mother or brother to get how despicable they r - and seeing the mother being mean to that young girl was just infuriating - the fact that that kid could laugh it off is kinda astounding and just goes to show, that this a daily occurrence. which makes that family life just sad.********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Luke and Calix on the other hand just butting heads - which i find funny. but i guess that could be a hate to love story - even though i was wrong and Luke didn't notice Juanmig - heck he and his group r just itching for a fight with anyone and everyone. why r they so angry?!? considering they seem to be well-off so WTF. so anyone's guess is as good as mine - as to where this plot is really going - cause if to take the poster into consideration, it seems Luke and Calix will be together and so will Juanmig and Cairo - But that's not everything as u see Juanmig and Luke looking at each other. so confused *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw i didn't get why all the girls r around and not cause this a BL - but both Luke and Calix's ex's r there and they not bumped into each other, then why come? well in the cause of Luke's ex, she made sure to find out where he disappeared too. that's why she showed up and she hasn't yet search him out - really? oh well -

the 1st time i came across this on the tube and watched it, was curious but also left confused. as there a TON of character's and u don't really get who is against whom. there r broad strokes - u know there 4 group's. *Luke the volatile, angry dude that starts this off with the argument with his dad, that then proceeds to his heated break-up with this gf on the phone, after he finds out she been cheating on him. and the way the dialogue with her was set-up, was sure (the 1st time around) that he was in-fact speaking with Calix. who is having a parallel convo with his soon to be ex. is she the same woman, cheating one with the other - is that the connection? or is their "ending up" together the reason that was set-up that way - left to be seen.********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Calix unlike Luke is more easy going in-spite of having a pretty rough life, coming from the poorer parts of the city. financing his gambler mother and leech of an older brother - i really didn't get how he could be so cool and laid back, dealing with either of the two. as it seemed a daily thing, them milking him for money - so given both the guy's situations i didn't get where they had time to go on vacay with their clicks - guess just to further the plot. bit of a reach, but let's ignore that for now.*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************in the midst of this, there another group - Cairo and his buddies that r on vacay - no back story there. just a group of guys come for some R and R (i think - as the plot or what u see leaves a lot to the imagination. and the description doesn't help make anything clearer) btw mentioning the description, this is what i found on their official site: HE’S MINE is the story of love and hate and the dangerous lies that happen between two lovers and the fear of losing someone you love most. The story happens in a beautiful beach resort where all the characters meet. This the story of relationships between families of different walks of life, between friends, between lovers as well as between enemies. - like i said this Doesn't help u get what's what and who it's about or what is gonna go down. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but in this ep there is the 4th "group" or rather family (and i aint sure if they own the resort, or just vacationing) but we have Juanmig, the long curly-haird Adonis (he really is a beauty) and the sec Cairo sees him - he smitten. not that i fault him. but considering the preview, i have a feeling this a weird triangle or rather a "A love cube" as he manages to even make Luke take a second look - so idk how this gonna get developed - how many couples there will be in the end(?) and what is gonna happen. so off to view the next ep - that i hope will offer more answers, then questions...

will start off with Thanks - glad this isn't the last of this couple's plot - cause they the bomb - love how funny and quirky Yu Ra is. yeah she prudish but can't fault her. her upbringing, society's norms, etc comes into play - if anything her "bff" is an oddity, that's rushing headlong into a sexual relationship with a guy that admits, he jumps from one girl to the next, sowing his wild oats - personally don't think that makes him genuine, or that good( if he is candid with the girls and they looking for similar experience's - then great). but he's selling the romance dream. and maybe there r people that can fall in and out of love in the blink of an eye. personally don't by it - maybe he doesn't know/get the difference between mental and physical attraction?!? -****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** cause i doubt he cared about Yu Ra, he was attracted to her and that's why he had no problem dumping her the sec she wouldn't "put out" - that aint love. but he didn't try anything with Yu Ra - as i though he would, which i guess mean's he aint all bad. his advise even was (in a round about way) logical. it for sure pushed Yu Ra to act upon her feelings. but as she doesn't know what Nam Ho is thinking/feeling or what they got, she is running scared figuratively and literally.

this is the plotline that brought me here - so knew in broad-strokes that her ex was dating her bff. but the fact that he broke up with her, cause she wouldn't "put out", now that came as news. considering that fact, i for sure wouldn't be as proud as her bff is, to go around announcing they together ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ what does that say about her?!? if i was Yu Ra i would have a field day, demolishing both the ex and that "bff". as neither r worthy off all this trouble she is going through. but then, no story and for sure she wouldn't notice Nam Ho - which btw "hello!?!? like how does one, not notice HIM (¬‿¬)(¬_¬ )******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but loving them both - u can see they almost like sibling's - very comfortable with each other, let alone the constant bickering - so kinda get that he got "slotted" into the brother role, and only now that this situation pushed them (her) into noticing that - nope - they not related and he Hot - she doesn't know what to do - which is cute and fun to watch. just hope this doesn't follow the previous plot, where i Loved the 1st ep but the conclusion of the story left me annoyed - this was hilarious and fun. so hope the next ep/part, keeps the momentum going and ends with a bang. btw the ex is gross and he still hot for Yu Ra, but he a horny goat and just cause he couldn't "get" any from her, he chose to hurt her. but after that kiss - wont be shocked if he tried his luck ... hope she awoken to the truth that even though he her 1st love he aint worth taking back

logical, positive, realistic open ending - Karl apologizes and even confessed (to everyone lol - well to the people that mattered) and Vlad distanced himself enough to understand where Karl was coming from and that he needed time - so his looking for him at the end, indicated that even though he didn't want a relationship that was a secret. he wasn't ready to cut him out of his life - considering the controversy i mentioning from the start of this (in my reviews) idk when and if there is gonna be a 2nd season, this was a great drama - it was about being gay and self acceptance, not only falling in-love or finding romance. shame it has been tainted by the same person who wrote it - left to be seen what will come of this. i hope there will be a second season as this is really bigger then one person....
