Right, it's so ... adorable. SO CUTE. So... dude i don't even. While the extreme cognitive dissonance here cracks me the hell up, SERIOUSLY this video is PROFOUNDLY FUCKED UP.
also his STRIPPING OF RAGE is sort of distracting (and actually the reason I turned it on at all) BUT YEAH, so creepy.
and i know right, some of these freaking dramas, god. actually in my requirements for Taiwanese dramas an instant disqualifier is "shy girl who secretly wants the guy but will never encourage him whatsoever and will actually actively try to discourage him and tell him to go again/suave dude who knows she wants it so he pursues her constantly, moves in for uninvited kisses and basically makes her realize she wants him" BECAUSE THIS IS ACTUALLY PRACTICALLY A FREAKING GENRE EW.
RIGHT it's like, girl i can see why you were dating him but man, don't eat those fucking cookies, they're probably poison.
and it doesn't fucking help that like, the kissing in these things is such a big deal and like, so goddamn symbolic and they spend so much time preparing for them and god, you'd think they were fucking or something, IDEK. I mean I know American television is equally fucked up just in ways we're conditioned to find more morally acceptable but man, I HAVE A HARD TIME WITH THE DRAMAS SOMETIMES.
aw man now I wish he sort of had just like, run the turtle down and just kept going, it's not like it could've gotten more WTF by that point. though his OH NO, THAT POOR TURTLE, WHAT DID I NEARLY DO?! face was pretty awesome. (also you'd never in a hundred years stop like that on a motorcycle. unless you like the taste of high speed pavement i guess.)
and like, all the kissing is usually one person kissing another person's unmoving face. WHICH. IS SORT OF CREEPY i am pretty sure that's done to prevent the actors from looking like, too ~into~ it 'cause all this shit is like, so G-rated and conservative, but still. and NGL it doesn't bother me as much when the girl is the active participant and it's the dude that's all WTF IS GOING ON.
I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED BY THAT VIDEO TOO because i'd just found this one off the same album and it is completely legit adorable I love it so much, and then we move to ...... wtf, STALKING IS A-OKAY? and of course she gets back with him at the end, 'cause he totally proved himself with his .... did he do anything sympathetic at all, even.
KISSING IS REALLY A TWO PERSON ACTIVITY or more i guess BUT YEAH, IF ONE PERSON IS JUST STANDING THERE it's like the other person is like ... tasting their face? idek man it just looks so terrible to me. and in this case i really hope the kissing isn't like metaphorical sex, because like .... omg D8.
but seriously why would you kiss someone who wasn't kissing you back, how is that any fun at all.
I DON'T CARE IF THEY ARE GAY BUT YOU CANNOT DEFINE "GAY" IN THIS INSTANCE AS "CREEPY INAPPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR WITH POSSIBLY UNDERLYING MURDEROUS TENDENCIES"
see if he was watching me my feelings would be terribly mixed, because seriously he is hot as hell. BUT I THINK MY FEELINGS FOR THE ACTOR AND THE CHARACTER ARE BECOMING MIXED because holy crap, that character is such a creeper. SUCH. A. CREEPER.
Well I personally was speaking about the character, since I'm pretty sure Jiro is too awesome to be a creeper, but you know more than I do on that front.
I don't think so either, but then again real!Jiro isn't as hot as that guy either. Cute but real life lacks all those makeup artists and strategic lighting and stuff.
it means that i'd much rather have dinner with the dude in the vblog, but the magic of cinema can create impossibly good looking, basically imaginary people that are very fun to look at.
