Why does sempai seem so pissed that they're dating? He seems to imply that he could lose his job. Is it cause he's a yakuza or cause they're both men? Ueda also says that what they're doing is wrong... which part of it?
im prettyyyy sure its not because theyre both men but because ueda is a cop and aki is yakuza. those two fields are not what you would call compatible or some sort
I thought that but then why is it okay for Aki to go to the cop booth and go for dinner with him everyday?
there is nothing wrong with being friendly between a yakuza and cop, but to date each other is more dangerous due to the fact that the cop would highly likely cover for the yakuza if anything illegal happens.
That made no sense lol. You can't just be like "huh must have been the wind" when it's there on a physical picture... "must have been my imagination that this camera captured the perfect likeness of Alex..."
err wut
Skyrim bandit level of idiocy. *gets hit with arrow in the arm* , *searches and finds nothing for 5 seconds* , *Must've been the wind*. Seriously, he should ask to see the photo again.
But why tho if he's over him he wouldn't care
"huh it must've been the wind"
omfg I spit out my water
1- I don't think he ever said he was over him, just that he decided not to be in a poisonous relationship with him anymore or that he is trying to live healthy by cutting negatives out of his life cause he's tired of being hurt. 2- I think it might be cause for concern if, even though you are over him, your abusive ex sex partner might be stalking you or 3 - you believe yourself to be delusional by seeing him even though you think it impossible for him to be there, thus your mind playing tricks on you while you are trying to get over him.
True but idk in my head if i were in the same situation i wouldn't be able to see Alex as a stalker (like he was always the one who avoided feelings) I would've thought "oh Alex was here when I walked in, but I didn't notice cuz I was focused on my friend, and then he saw us take the picture, noticed me and left" and thus not care enough to give a bigger response
If anyone you know shows up in the back of a picture of you by coincidence, it's worth at least a double-take, no matter how little you care about them.
Wait did he not turn around? I thought that was a good response that's why I didn't get ur reaction
Yeah but after he said "it was nothing" or w/e he didn't double-check the camera. (This is from memory.)
Top tier strategies in the zone of "how to depict homosexuality so the Chinese government won't notice."
Oh god i hope this has a happy ending cause I'm tearing up.
I don't get what people mean when they say it's "a waste..." Very confusing.
it means that he can find someone better.
For these people, he doesn't meet his ''standard''
No no, it's a common reply to finding out someone is gay. I don't know how it was intended in this story, but in real life it's marshalled against gay people all the time. My newsfeed was filled with it when Tom Daley came out.
oh okay, i didn't see it that way
In that case Im sure it's how people view a heterosexual relationship as the "perfect pairing" so if someone comes out as homosexual it is then a "loss/waste" because that perfect pairing can't happen now. All BS basically
Maybe but I think it means that a good looking guy is being wasted, cause he could have made some woman very happy... Which is why it's so confusing, cause you could call a straight man a waste cause he could've made some man very happy.
Maybe you're right though... idk
In this case it isn't related too sexuality / gender of the uke, but rather his standard (personality, talent,...)
"Please. Have. Weird. Intentions."
Have deeper words ever been spoken...
Yo this killed me XD
This is a bit pretentious but I think that 19 Days is one of the few Chinese BLs to not be ruined by censorship. In a way, the legal censorship seems to mirror the way that the characters can't express their feelings for one another directly because of social norms.
So, while the author is trying to subtly encode homosexuality/homosociality into the story because of censorship, she's actually writing about a kind of censorship that takes place at all levels. Like the 'together forever' drawing is his indirect expression of his feelings.
But that's just one man's opinion :')
So I saved all of S2 until tonight and I'm so glad I did.
Yonghee was even better in S2 - the true star of the show yet again!
Omg same (≧∀≦")
Sammmme
So I may be late to this party, but I'm learning Hangul/Korean, and I think I just found out that Yohan's name (중 요한) means something along the lines of being helpful or useful for someone ("jungyohanda" - 중요하다)... Pretty cool trivia.
Nothing more emotionally satisfying than saying byeeee to a straight guy for not reciprocating your feelings. Tastes like sweet revenge.
