Lovely Writer Special Episode (2021)

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.

LIE

In the original Lovely Writer series, Gene and Nubsib's relationship was not 100% truthful. They often kept things to themselves and not tell the other what they were thinking.

Although it could be said that nothing would ever come between their love, it's normal that they would no longer be in their cute honeymoon phase after 2 years.

This special episode showed how both Nubsib and Gene chose to lie to each other, but in the end, still forgive each other and made a promise to stop scheming and lying to one another. It was a good conclusion to the original drama all in all.

We started off the episode with Gene's fears and difficulties being portrayed in his dream (as represented by the demon and glass shards). We saw the parallels of Nubsib and Gene's relationship with that of Book and his boyfriend's. We saw how hurt Gene and Nubsib felt after realising that the other had been lying to them. We saw how strong their love for each other was when they chose to talk things out and resolve them properly.

Gene's confession to Nubsib at the end was truly the highlight. Even better than a proposal if I may add.

Finally, we managed to see what happened to Aey after he turned over a new leaf.

The scenes were beautifully shot and the chemistry between Kao and Up were off the charts. They portrayed Nubsib and Gene really naturally.

The ending was really fulfilling. After watching it, we know that Nubsib and Gene's love will continue for a long time. But now, it's time for us to send Nubsib and Gene back into the fictional world.

Kudos to the production team and the actors for Lovely Writer! It's a piece that will stay with me for a long time.
