Its So Weird How I Never Thought I Would Like Run On Bcs Its Poor Description Sounds Like Any Other Kdrama

its so weird how I never thought I would like run on bcs its poor description sounds like any other kdrama clichè but im literally so happy that I decided to give it a chance and now run on is my safe place and happy pill <33

I've been thinking a lot about queerness lately and I keep getting stuck on how deeply I want it to be normal. I want little girls to come home excitedly telling their parents about a pretty new girl in school that they have a crush on. I want young boys to have their first kiss with another boy and be able to tell their friends about it. I want them to be impressed and slap him on the back and say congrats. I want to bring home a woman to my family and have my father give her that whole fake threatening, "you better be good to my daughter" speech before offering her a handshake and a beer. I want people everywhere in the world to be able to hold hands in the street and not even think twice about it, not have to feel afraid, not have to feel like they're making a statement. I want so desperately for the world to catch up with something that so many of us already understand as normal. I don't want to be merely tolerated, and I wish pride wasn't necessary. I wish that having confidence in myself wasn't a revolutionary act.

the uncanny counter really does sit at the top of my list of dramas. ik kdramas are usually based on romance and the main theme is "no romance no life" ofc i dont mean it in a bad way bcs I do enjoy those as well but it always feels nice to watch something so different and heartwarming even without the presence of any central romance. their little found family is so so precious. the cast is beyond amazing and im quite sad that next week is our last with uncanny counter at least for a while

AHH SORRY THE LINK ISNT WORKING

lemme add it again

Feeding My Procrastination

I’ve watched The Bamboo Forest, Mr. Queen’s spinoff, and, damn, the writer has actually managed to make the story even a bigger mess than pr

not to be that person but I think the idea of the spin off was really bad. don't get me wrong, I love mr queen and i LOVE the cast with all my heart. having shin hye sun on screen is definitely a pleasure but hear me out

the spin off makes it look like the king fell in love with so yong as well but thats so not in context with the main series as it is explained here. https://dreamingsnowflake2013.tumblr.com/post/643118917933514752/ive-watched-the-bamboo-forest-mr-queens

and also from the small clips I've seen, they've made it look like so yong and director hong were acquainted while in the palace but there's NO hint of that when so bong and director hong meet. like you can tell me that two people who laughed and played together would have such a dynamic like so bong and hong. they basically seemed Iike strangers.

the spin off just seems like the writers way to make people like so yong so that we like the ending but it just created sm more confusion

I finished watching the uncanny counter finale and wow, it was so satisfying and heartwarming. I love the closures they gave to all the subplots and im beyind excited for season 2. found family has always been one of my favourite tropes and the family in this drama did not disappoint me at all. every interaction of theirs stayed with me for a very very long time

I came to connect with all the characters sm (except the villains ofc) I also liked how they finished season 1 properly without any major plots remaining hanging while also leaving place for a season 2. many dramas with multiple seasons fail to do that and its one of my biggest pet peeve so im very very satisfied with uncanny counter.

now, I do believe the story lost some of its charm towards the end but it never was boring or dragged for me. I enjoyed watching our counter family and I was waiting for them to be finally happy.

not that anyone asked but this drama is a solid 10 for me !!
