that ending scene is just avoidance IMHO. Win pushing Team against something and Team getting lost in the onslaught... isn't anything new. has it gotten them clarity about what they want from each other?!? no(!) then why instead of dealing with the situation, they turn to carnality? yeah it's an easy out - same as running away instead of facing ur true feelings, using words to make heads n tails out of whatever they feel for each other. nah, better to get-off and push facing reality to another day (ノω<。)ノand after the serious conversation about romance and love in the previous scene, it's a bit of a let down - oh well it is what it is... ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but at least some side couples fairing better, Pruek & Manow have cute moments, same with Wan & Tul. but the hilarious bit about them is Win always playing cupid, pushing them together, kinda cute. also glad Prince turned out to be a good-guy and like how his situation with Bee was solved in a flash. personally don't like that manager. ******************************************get that getting into the industry isn't easy and u have to work ur ass off. but i don't like the POV shown, as it also shows how a lot of young actors can be taken advantage off, let alone used and abused with them getting burnt-out before their mind 20's and some then choosing to 'end everything' as a consequence of this type of pressure.

know am the odd one out, but really don't like Team calling Win "Hia" it is weird, calling him 'brother' let alone how fast he started using that nick, considering how he was fighting feelings n the confusion about what he was feeling. but ignored it, in this ep after Win saving him - his use of that nick was jarring and weird to hear. ***************************************************but all that is ignorable when u r confronted with the 180 Win does by the end - i really haven't understood what his 'trauma' is. in the 1st ep he said much of the same - meaning the resort will never be his, cause he the 2nd son. so no matter how hard he works, it will automatically go to Wan as the 1st born. get that logic - but what has he lost?!? he has his family; parents, siblings. and the more u see of Wan and Wiew - the relationship between the siblings, there is No rivalry to speak off. they there for one another, even if they fight. it's kids being kids or brothers being brother's, not anything worrying or ugly. plus he doesn't seem to be hurting financially, thus his parents not neglecting him either - so i ask again, was is Win's problem?!? ********************** he is the one telling Team that he will only have him, that he will always be there for him etc.. now this 180, am so confused what is behind this behavior - ********************************************************************************************************as is i was a bit worried about how much Team was relying on him, cause yeah it's great that Win is offering his bed/comfort and assurance that he is there, so Team can get a good nights sleep. but that doesn't solve the problem and now that Win has cold feet, Team left out in the cold literally (ノω<。)ノ ugh idk what to think or say ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note as much as i enjoy the mini side stories, am glad they miniscule and not overshadowing the main plot, that was one of my main worries going into this. that the plot will focus on other's and the mains will get lost -

have to say, Team's metabolism is a thing of wonder, as lazy as he is, the amount of junk-food he consumes on the daily - not to mention regular meals, dude should be double his size ヾ(≧▽≦*) ****************************************************************besides that, am kinda enjoying how this drama is panning out. yes it isn't smooth sailing, but life isn't and most of the hurdle's r logical and believable. considering how Team and Win started off their 'ship' it isn't hard to get why they on uncertain ground, in-spite of how close they have gotten and how they always around each other, let alone how they consumed by each other, when they not with each other. so i like that we r getting a more realistic POV on romance, and not a far-fetched fantasy. **********************************************************************************************************************************************that being said i don't get why Team keeps making Win out to be some play-boy, cause anything we have seen of Win, he a scary, standoffish dude that keeps people at arms length. he Not going around flirting or even smiling at the world - so this assumption is weird to me. *********************************************************************************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************also didn't like how Wan's father spoke to him - it's easy to treat an adult son as a child, when all u see is him lounging around the house playing games. but jumping to assumption's, let alone spewing poison just cause ur frustrated or whatever, isn't justified. still think the only way is Wan breaking away and standing on his own two feet - that will show his father he is a grow-up, not still a child he can treat like a baby 🤷♀️ arguing and saying hurtful words aint gonna change ur parents POV about u....

the subs being off r making it hard to understand some of the subtext of what's really being said. have noticed it for a while, but it is what it is... and yet u get the big picture. both Win and Team r getting close and not as lovers (a blessing IMHO), which has enabled Team to lower his guard and be more comfortable around Win. their interaction is more like good buddies, then adult friends. Team is comfortable acting the spoilt brat, allowing Win to baby him, something Win utterly enjoys. ********************given his relationship with his younger sibling, maybe he likes him better then his older brother (as he is comfortable in the role of care giver?). cause even though there might not be any animosity between Win and Wan, given what he said in the first ep, i feel like he does not feel as close or affectionate towards him. well like he said he is the "spare" considering he won't inherit, as he isn't the 1st born. *****************************************************************************************************************not that i blame him, cause Wan totally comes off - a self involved brat that's throwing himself a constant pity party. he the supposed adult in this equation. he doesn't like his life or the way his father is treating him, he - the adult that can do no more then play games on his freakin i-phone.(ノω<。)ノ go look for a job at another place that will appreciate u. nah he rather b*tch n moan. while the only thing i've seen him do to date is fight with Wiew, insult his father to his face and play with his i-phone in the lap of luxury meeh not a really likeable character. ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also have to say, a last we get Manow acting like a normal, relatable character for a few sec's and then she back to overacting and acting plain crazy. guess that's supposed to be funny?!? pity, for a sec there i really started wanting to see more of her and Pruek. now hard pass

finally a healthy ending, that indicates at a budding romance to develop. cause until now, just cause Team was blinded by horniness, doesn't a healthy foundation for a romance make ¯\(°_o)/¯ that's why after every encounter to date, Team been running away from Win's shadow the day after. *************************************************************************************even after a consensual one-night-stand, u don't avoid (like the plague) coming face to face with the person u had that one-nightstand with. it only happens, when ur unsure or worse did something u regret... so yes Team always been conscious, but that doesn't mean he was ready mentally to deal with how he would feel afterwards, cause he was in over his head - his lack of experience coming into play with his ending up being confused. so am very, Very glad they have more then just animal magnetism going for them. as mentioned already, attraction is all good and well, but that doesn't a healthy lasting relationship make! *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also meaning to mention this from the start, was really worried by the multitude of side character's but was happy to see Sood/Tul just wish he got more of a plot. so will wait and hope Wan [Win's older brother] is a worthy character. *****************also really enjoying A, Bee & Sea they unexpectedly sweet, fun and funny. but not really liking what little i've seen of Prince - the vibe is off and i'm worried for Bee, hope am wrong. but at least the main plot is starting to get off on the right foot(⊙‿⊙;)

yes the ending was very sweet and fluffy, it would melt a heart of stone, BUT (!!!) i didn't think this ep/conclusion was good/healthy. not where the mains r concerned... ***********************************************************************************the only one that grew was Nana. her coming to the realization that her pushing away Masaki was self preservation and the reasons she likes to spout, r utter nonsense. she has matured enough to acknowledge it is her hang-up, that is stopping her **** ****************************************************************************************************************************************Minato sadly (and as much as i love this character) didn't change/grow. he is the type that will never put himself first and will always go out of his way to help others - even if it's at his expanse. which isn't a plus in this world, cause there more people that will take advantage of this kindness... pity - **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the mains, like mentioned above - didn't like how that was resolved, yes in every 'ship' there is one that loves more. when it was Minato and Tsumugi, he loved more, thus he gave more. now it's Tsumugi who is the giver and considering her "i won't list..." i wanted to punch Sou and backhand her. where would she stop? wouldn't be astounded if she offered to bust her own ear-drums so Sou would accept her. that whole scene was annoying to watch. we not talking teens but adult's - and yet they couldn't just stop and have an adult conversation, after everything they had been through?!? most of Sou's argument was applicable to any adult relationship, just cause both partners r able-bodied doesn't an everlasting 'ship' make - that was his insecurity and selfishness speaking. this doesn't lay the ground for a healthy relationship, so i for one aint elated at this end 🤷♀️

not new that one ep from the end usually we get major drama in most drama's, which get's solved rapidly in the final ep. this time around - heck with this plot it doesn't seems like added drama for the sake of drama, but a logical hurdle. ******************both leads in-spite of being head over heels for each other, have been circling around, walking on eggs shells cause they on uncertain ground (cause of Sou's deafness). ironic that Tsumugi was a spoilt baby, being pandered to by Minato, and now that her sun and moon is back, she is pandering him which is backfiring surprise surprise😒 yeah she's hurting but aint sad for her. ****************************************************************************************************************************************like mentioned from the start, Sou is self-involved, his being around Tsumugi is a painful reminder that he has lost something she still posses. he's blaming her for something that isn't her fault. sadly he will end up alone, cause he doesn't want to be with a deaf person (as he thinks he is different/better, cause he once could hear), and a hearing person will constantly remind him what he's lost - he needs to get over the pity party he is throwing himself. 8 yrs is more then enough to grow and learn - deal with the hand he has been given. know easier said then done, considering he has hidden away living like some recluse. but shouldn't he have learnt something from his past actions?? and the present interactions with his past life?!? frustrating cause he isn't really ready to listen (ironic i know) and a pity. hope Tsumugi finds a way to reach him - cause he totally needs a reality check, like she needs to verbalize how frustrating he's attitude is and her POV and she needs to stop indulging him!****************************************************************************************************************************************Nana reconciling with Masaki was a bright point and it was fun to watch them talking, pity she is incapable of understanding that she has a chance (or had one with) Masaki. but she was the one who thought a hearing person could never fall for me, it must be out of pity (him being around and nice to her), so she was the one to construct boundaries (before he could/would push her away). understandable, everyone tends to be too much in their own heads, judging themselves more harshly then necessary - and we miss out on opportunities cause of it. life i guess - sad reality for most

before anything - how ironic (is it irony - idk) anyway... found it "funny" that Nana has been tutoring almost everyone in this drama. with Sakura it was motivated out of pity and comradery. with Masaki just a means to communicate and then friendship. and after the blow-up between the two, i kinda get why Masaki comes off so jaded from the start of this. ************************this time around Nana wasn't justified in lashing out - yeah i get she was hurt, cause she thought Masaki teaching others what she taught him, was him sharing something that was theirs alone, and only them being able to communicate through sign made it special/precious. thus making their relationship unimportant or insignificant in his eyes, when he chose to use that mode of communication with strangers. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but what she said was b.s. - people wanting to learn sign language isn't hypocrisy - each has their own reasons. if what she said was true, then any person without disabilities wanting to help and accommodate people with, is a fake - which is far from the truth. *********************************************************************************************************************************i get, getting defensive and not trying to understand the true motivations behind someone actions, when u r hurting - which is very human. but sadly cause of her melt down (her inability to face why she was deeply hurt), Masaki been walking around like a injured soul for how long now?!? this sad. ****************************************************************************************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************Tsumugi's conversation with her mother and after that with Sakura, was truly heart warming and bittersweet.

as much as i like Minato and Nana, n believe they deserve better - they r also enablers n pushovers. that whole scene between Nana and Sakura, where she came to return his books, was uncomfortable to watch. *********************************************both her and Minato can't help but apologize for their very existence ¯\(°_o)/¯ cause to date, the ones that need too r two self-centered A-holes Tsumugi and Sakura - justified, understandable or whatever... they do what's good for themselves, not really thinking about anyone else feelings. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************don't get me wrong, don't dislike or hate the pair. i get the humanity in their actions - not always likeable, but i get them. just don't think i would like to be around people like these, they so self involved and invested in each other (which is great, but they Not the only people on this planet), so being this egocentric is counterproductive in many ways - even though there people who don't need anyone, as long as they have each other so idk... ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but glad that Sakura took the initiative to make peace with Nana - which allowed a better interaction between her and Sakura - cause his muteness was annoying when i just wanted him to be apologetic and considerate of a good friend like Nana, and ll she had done for him too date

i didn't find fault with Nana. her lashing out at Sakura was understandable, considering he started ghosting her now that he suddenly got his old life back. he first pushed away his old life, cause he was worried how they might reject him. now that he saw that they didn't just accept him, but went out of their way to accommodate his handicap - he feels he doesn't need Nana or the life of a deaf recluse, one he took on himself. which (lets face facts) he wasn't that ready to be a part off - that's why she was his only friend. ************************************************************************************************************************like i mentioned in past ep's, he's a bit selfish so Nana getting hurt and lashing out, understandable. and her confronting Tsumugi wasn't mean or bad - she just wanted to "get" her - it didn't help or hinder Tsumugi's relationship with Sakura (which isn't anything at this moment). if anything it hurt her more coming face to face with the reality of how her handicap handicapped her - ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************ironic but both her and Minato deserve better partners, ones that know their worth and not only use and then discard them like they nothing but an after thought (* ￣︿￣)

must say i get Mako trying to convince Minato to take Tsumugi back, and yet i don't like it - it was a total disservice to him, as a person and a friend. ******************************************************************************************************************yeah Tsumugi glowed when she was with him, he was loving, caring and giving. show me anyone that wouldn't glow under that love and warmth?!? *******************************************************************************************************************Minato Always put her first, anything and everything he did, was taking her into consideration - Why wouldn't she thrive?!? heck why would she want out of that ship?!? didn't need her telling Minato "...he was family...", knew that even before, considering how he treated her younger brother, let alone how Hikaru treated him. that loyalty doesn't come unwarranted. pity she didn't appreciate him - cause if she did and treated him like he was as important to her, as she was to him, Nobodies reappearance could've shaken or broken their relationship and trust in each other's love for the other. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************called Sakura selfish at the start (his actions were self-motivated) ironically Tsumugi not very different. like i mentioned in the 3th ep she wants her cake and and eat it too. so have to see now that she doesn't have a shield to hide behind, is her love for Sakura enough to over come the obstacle of his disability.¯\(°_o)/¯ *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - hope and wish that Minato doesn't back track and moves forward and away from Tsumugi - he deserves better.

Aoba wants her cake and eat it too, maybe she isn't aware of what she wants or isn't ready to face her true feeling (cause of how good a man Minato is). but call b.s on her declaring that Sakura is just someone she knew, that she doesn't have any feelings for him now `(*>﹏<*)′ leave her rushing to study sign language, she keeps finding reasons to meet with him all the time. let alone her tearing up after telling Sakura that she now loves Minato, as if that was hurting her more, then it was him. she just confused or not ready to deal with reality. either way, she like a headless chicken and sadly her stupidity is gonna hurt both guys. ****************************************************************************************************************************Minato has every right to be mad/angry at her and the situation he is in cause of her, as if the frustration of finding out why his bff ghosted him isn't enough, he now feels like the bad guy getting between the mains. ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Aoba's brother is cute and all but she needs someone who will give her a wake-up call ASAP... cause she is playing both guys and it isn't fair to either. as much as i don't like Sakura's sister (who comes off like a spoilt brat) and she wasn't 100% justified in hating on Aoba , she's kinda right about what she said regarding her brother and Aoba

last ep teared up, now crying (⊙_⊙;) guess this is how this whole series is gonna go (ノω<。)ノ oh well... at least it aint boring *****************************************************************************************************************************************the way things r developing Minato is gonna bow-out and leave both the leads, to get back together. idk what is going on with Aoba, but doesn't she get that even if Minato understands and isn't objecting, she is insulting and taking advantage of his kind-heart?!? *******************************************************************************************************************************i get not wanting to notice what she is doing (cause her whole world is Sakura, who she still loves like she did when they were teens), but she has a loving caring man in her life - as she wouldn't like or stand for another women suddenly occupying Minato every waking moment - why she think, her suddenly just having Sakura on the brain isn't hurting Minato ?!? ugh ¯\(°_o)/¯ ***********************************************************************************************************************************************ironic that Minato is the side character but (and as much as i feel for the main pair) he is the one that i care for the most

ironically the one i most feel sorry for, was Minato. he really is a good person, true and true - he had a crush on Aoba the sec he saw her, but he immediately noticed she only had eye's for Sakura. he wasn't mean or bitter but happily stepped aside, so they could develop their relationship. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************get Sakura's motivation - but lets face facts he did what he did for selfish reasons (justified or not) he was thinking only about himself. am glad he broke it off with Aoba, and didn't ghost her - but his reasoning is selfish and unfair, not only to her, his best friend but ironically mainly to himself. cause he still has feelings for her, and he pushed her away before giving her a chance to reject him. and now that she knows the real reason, even if she has moved on, her guilty conscience will take her back to Sakura - as if she was the one to abandon him, leaving Minato discarded at the side lines when he isn't to blame *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw - the reason he doesn't verbally voice his grievance's at the end, isn't cause he's deaf and self-conscious about his voice (that usually happens to people who r deaf from birth) it's more to emphasize the dived between them and his point that, they can't communicate

i don't get why Pha is getting so much hate - he fine - he for sure better looking then Yo or Kit for that matter - but each to "his" own - taste wise.. no arguing there - Beam, Ming and Forth for sure the lookers in this drama. ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Forth with his ridiculous pouting fazes, getting all butt-hurt cause Beam not happily running along and getting onboard with everything he says is ironic - he the top? plz. but the scene where he sick in bed with Beam at last saying, ok to being in a relationship with him - and those 4 popping up outside the window, was the first time i liked and enjoyed a voyeuristic aspect in this drama - where other side character be nosey and curious about someone else "ship" statues - that was well done.. not to mention funny - unlike those weird 4 "bottoms" - they r just annoying. *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************last but not least, that whole pic incident is beyond ridiculous - the way everyone is over reacting u would think it was a nude, or worse an intimate pic of Yo getting it on - if i saw that, would wonder who the f*ck took it and what kind of weird stalker they were. not point a finger at the subject of the photo - other then to wonder if they were alright and unhurt. cause he sleeping in the pic - but nahh this is blown out of proportion - guess so we can get a season 3?? k *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************ironic that Kit and Ming have the sweetest relationship at the end.. well it was pretty apparent that Kit was all bark no bite - so not that surprised.. glad for Ming, as he worked hella hard for that ass XD
