I left a comment on Hoolim's latest behind the scenes video and got a reply...

THERE'S A NEXT STORY. Now I feel like I have confirmation from Nami himself, so I can stop obsessing and making unhinged posts. I will be calm and wait.

Also, Suk's gl, Lonely Girls, aired its ep 4 yesterday (the story felt finished), and today Suk released a compilation video of Lonely Girls, signaling that the series is complete. No compilation has been released for Blue Boys, so it's not complete! There's still ep 5. 🤡👀🤡

#i believe #blue boys #blue boys the series

[ellsieee]

The Chinese fans don't believe ep 4 was the last ep either. 😂

IN NAMI WE TRUST. We will wait patiently.

#can suk just make a teaser post or say SOMETHING? #we're dying here #they probably know that and are laughing maniacally #blue boys #blue boys the series

Translation notes for Blue Boys ep 1-2:

Episode 1:

This sub doesn't make sense within the context of what they were taking about (drinking to stay warm). It's probably a direct translation issue. The Chinese fansub has Jaemin saying "It won't work if you fall asleep", which makes a lot more sense.

Episode 2:

One of my gripes about this series is the subtitle quality. Pronouns get mixed up a lot. I feel like the subs are better than auto translated would be, but sometimes not by much. Clearly all of the "you" should be Nami.

From a reddit user: Jaemin asks Nami "Is this your usual way" which is the literal translation, but it's more an indirect way of saying "have you always been gay". I don't know about the accuracy of this correction, but it makes Nami's "I'm not sure?" and subsequent talk about Jaemin being the first man he's had feelings for make more sense.

Translation of the article: First sex with a man, an unforgettable taste. Your first experience with a man brings waves of unforgettable emotions. At that moment, it was as if all the books in the world became clearer and all my senses became more sensitive. The trembling, excitement, and even a little fear of that time all mix together and remain as one strong memory.

The meaning of being the first in itself is very deep. It's time for us to have new experiences. We learn something and learn a little more about ourselves. That momentary experience is more than just physical, it becomes an opportunity to renew your understanding of your identity, desires, and relationships.

But the important thing is that the experience should have a positive impact on us. Our first experience in a relationship built on mutual respect gives us confidence and has a significant impact on the direction of future relationships. Conversely, negative experiences scar us on the inside, making us realize once again the importance of communication and understanding.

Every first experience becomes an important part of our lives, and when we have sex for the first time with a man, it is not just a physical encounter, but a deeper understanding and growth as a person. Through that experience, we learn, grow, and better ourselves and others. That taste, that feeling, is something we can never forget. Source

Pride Petty Watch

Long story short, I owe the BL gods, so I'll be watching TWO series from my Petty List during the month of June. This list includes shows I haven't watched for purely petty reasons, so I'm asking the crowd to pick the two shows I will watch from all the MAME series, some censored Chinese bromances, a few sexual tension-filled Korean bromances, and one wild card.

I'm making my first ever poll, so whichever two series get the highest numbers will be the two I watch. And for all the kind people in the crowd, this is not the time to think about me. Pick your favorite. And for all the people who I annoy on the daily with my wild ass takes that piss you off, pick TharnType. But there is a possibility of a secret thirteenth option that would hurt me much worse . . .

The petty ass reasons are below the poll.

Disclaimer: If you're going to read the petty ass reasons, I need you to understand these are PETTY ASS REASONS, so don't try to hit me with 2,000 words about why me not watching censored bromances is a problem or why me not liking your fave hurts your feelings. Nah. Pick a show!

MAME

Love By Chance

This show came out at the end of 2018, and I watched the first episode, maybe first two, and thought it was boring. Then, in 2019, I saw a GIF of the locker scene, so I recommitted. I made it past the first episode just when the PerthSaint drama started spilling out everywhere, so I chucked the deuces and haven't returned since.

TharnType

For some reason, I couldn't find the first episode when it aired. Then, I found out how the first episode ended. Then, I found out about Type's past. Then, I just kept finding out more awful stuff until eventually the MewGulf shit finally hit the fan, and I was still reeling from the PerthSaint drama (and the emerging ZeeSaint chaos). At this point, I've built this show up so much that I'm afraid to see what it is actually about.

Don't Say No

A story of another GIF of a locker room scene sucking me in! After the first two MAME pairs blew up, I believed her shows were cursed, so I opted out of watching this one even though I thought it would be the one to vibe with me the most. But the biggest reason was because the main characters came from TharnType, so I felt like I would have to watch TharnType to understand this show, which was a big hell nah.

Love in the Air

I watched this through mutuals on my dash, so I feel like I did watch it. It is also the highest rated MAME series, so I had faith in it. However, when I found out about Sky's past, TharnType's ghost popped back up, and I realized this demon of a show is gonna haunt me in every MAME series.

The Wedding Plan

Y'all hated one of the leads so much while it was airing that I now hate him, and I don't think I can let that go, so I'm coming in with pre-hate and TharnType's ghost, but on top of that, some of y'all said it was boring. But what is boring in a MAME series? Consent? Not kidnapping someone? I never got answers, so I'm very conflicted about this show.

Censored Chinese

The Untamed

It's color coded, but FIFTY FUCKING EPISODES! What is this shit? Grey's Anatomy? The fuck! Second, once China pulled Addicted, I was holding grudges for life because it crossed from entertainment censorship into real-world oppression, so I could not bring myself to support media from a country that openly discriminates against the queers when I live in America where our highest court is just one Supreme Court Justice away from making us all live in the damn Mojo Dojo Casa House.

Word of Honor

It's color coded, but THIRTY-SIX FUCKING EPISODES! What is this shit? Supernatural?! The fuck! Second, I don't know the difference between this and The Untamed. Both are color-coded, one of them has a lot of uncles (?), one of them has awful facial hair, and they all have pretty outfits. Every time someone makes a reference about these shows, I just nod the same way I do when people mention Star Wars because none of it makes sense.

Guardian

I spent two years believing Killer and Healer was Guardian. I haven't watched either, but I thought they were the same show. Honestly, if this show wins, I might just watch Killer and Healer because I will forget they are not the same show. Don't they both solve cases? And because it's China, past lives must be involved, no? I'm looking at their MDLs as I write this, and I'm still not convinced they are different.

Stay with Me

It's color coded, but I know how it ends, and word on the street is that IS the ending since a second season seems unlikely. China couldn't just let me be hurt over Addicted, the original. No. Gotta hurt me again with Addicted, the remake. Rude af.

The Spirealm

First off, SEVENTY-EIGHT FUCKING EPISODES! What is this shit? Law & Order: SVU?! The fuck! I know how this ends, and it ain't happy! I don't care how people are trying to spin it, so to sit through SEVENTY-EIGHT DAMN EPISODES just for that ending already has me irate. And don't try telling me Viki combined episodes so it's only thirty-four. That's still a lot. However, everybody who has watched it says it's phenomenal, so is the pain worth it or are these people all lying so they convince themselves it was worth it?

Korean Bromance

Beyond Evil

With most Korean dramas, I feel like I missing something important. Like some part of the story does not click with me and I stay lost for the rest of the show. I suck it up for the queers, but the not-queers-but-it-is-queer shows . . . nah, and especially one about cops . . . (-_-). Also, The Worst of Evil just showed, and it was another reminder that I need these cops to quit their jobs and just screw each other. Embrace "Be Gay. Do Crime"

The Devil Judge

I know enough about Kpop to know GOT7 would not let one of its members kiss a man in this show. I looked at those GIFs of Jeff Satur and Jackson Wang on their show knowing damn well that if Wang got too close to Satur, an entire management team would have ascended from hell and kidnapped both of them, so the promo for this show was so wild because it felt queerbait-adjacent, and I was salty about it.

WILD CARD!

This option will be automatically unlocked IF this stupid little poll gets 216 votes, so I have high hopes this will not happen since I ain't that popular and I hate this wild card which is . . .

SOTUS

This show is my original TharnType. It came out in 2016. I watched it live. I watched the sequel. I remember neither. New was in it? Off was in it?! WHAT?! I have no memory of this show except Krist wiping his mouth, and I have carried that with me for eight damn years. I loved Be My Favorite, so I thought I moved past whatever strange grudge I was holding against this man who doesn't know I exist nor care, but then I saw that trailer for The Ex-Morning, and unlike Elsa, I can't let this shit go, so I'm willing to play Jumanji and go back into the jungle to finish this once and all.

So what it's gonna be, mi gente. Which demons am I facing for Pride and what shows do I get to stay petty about? Help me decide!

#help me make petty watch word of honor #if i had two votes i would have voted stay with me as well

Hoorim (Nami) posted a Making Of Blue Boys video which provides much needed levity after ep 4.

We can see how low budget the series really is. It looks like Hoorim is using is own phone in the series, and he and Seungjin (Jaemin) are wearing their own clothes to film. I laughed when Seungjin said that after reading Jaemin's story, he went out and bought the leather jacket he wore in ep 4. 😂

The dressing room is just a regular room where the actors can leave their duffle bags. I think they even have to share because isn't that the sweater Jaemin wore in ep 3 on the table?

The *winkwink* ramen was very intentional and very important! 🤣

#the subs are a mess bc they are auto translated but you get the general idea #I'm so sad hoorim's phone broke so we didn't get making of any other ep #hoorim is pretty good about replying to comments so you can talk to him for funsies 🙂 #i think I'll ask him if there are any more eps and see if he'll answer #blue boys #blue boys the series #kbl

BLUE BOYS (2024)

#ooof 🔥🔥🔥 #blue boys #blue boys the series #kbl

[ellsieee]

So. Now that I've seen the official release of ep 4, I have thoughts. And lots of feelings. But first I will say that I'm glad Sukfilm added the jagi reveal from the uncut to the beginning of the free version. It's too important to the plot to leave out.

So proud of Jaemin for standing up to that crazy bitch Sol/Sori. (They really need to stick with one name to make things less confusing. 😅) I hate that the threat of it getting out that Jaemin is gay would threaten his chances of getting a job. I also hate that Suk went with the evil woman getting in the way of true love trope, but since they did, I HATE SOL. So much.

Sol got to Jaemin. 😭 I want to shake Jaemin and tell him so what? Your man is hot, men and women would be jealous. Since Nami is rich, he can pay for stuff because he will spoil you rotten. Just mooch off him! (jk 👀 jk👀)

As much as it hurts, I do understand Jaemin. I know that the main reason he broke up with Nami was because of Sol's threat, but I feel like Jaemin finding out that Nami's not the struggling writer he thought he was, put a dent in his pride and made him feel a bit inferior. He thought they were struggling together, only to find that Nami works for funsies.

I felt terrible for Nami this whole episode. He had no idea what was going on. Jaemin went from loving boyfriend to asking for a break up with no indication anything was wrong in between. The whole episode he was confused, but smiling and trying to coax Jaemin regardless. 🥺

A freaking knife in my heart. 😭 I really wanted to start crying when Jaemin said "take care". The acting was so good.

ARGHHHH. You can find me ugly crying in the corner. Nami is trying to fight for them but Jaemin won't use his words. They had such good communication before this. I wish Jaemin had told Nami about Sol and about his insecurities with the wealth/power dynamics in their relationship. PLEASE. When Jaemin starts letting go of Nami's hand and Nami subtly shook his head in a "no, don't" way, I groaned a noooooooo out loud. I was way too into this.

I have been heartbroken over this ending since Thursday, but now that I've had time to kind of calm down, I don't think this is the end. MDL had this series as 2 eps, extended to 4, but I don't recall Suk ever confirming or saying anything about the number of episodes. In the last shot, Jaemin is letting go of Nami's hand, but he hasn't completely let go yet. In episode 5, Nami refuses to let Jaemin go and grabs his hand again and forces him to have a heart to heart. They talk it out, get back together, tell Sol off, and then have a hot make out session in the uncut. Then they lived happily ever after. 🤡

Blue Boys episode 4 uncut

Our kissing kings are bringing the heat again. My favorite neck cradling is back and the sounds they are making... damn. It's so intimate, I feel like I'm a creepy peeping tom or something. Nami playing with Jaemin's ear and then squishing his face is so cute.

Normally I'd be squealing and kicking my feet, but my heart isn't in it right now because I'm devastated at where Nami and Jaemin are right now. 😭

Yay for the Chinese fans being freaking fast with getting their copies of the uncut and having insomnia, so no one has to suffer my ugly gifs.

Poor guy is falling too hard too fast.

Joe please. Joe. Joe ples a. oh no he got His & His couples pillowcases too my god someone save this man we need rescuers asap !!!!!

Not even five minutes in and Joe is stressing me OUT! Buying new stuff. Wanting matching mugs, and getting matching bowls and pillowcases.

Then mentioning they need to move to a different place.

Ya doing too fucking much, Joe!

I'm explicitly on Ming's side now because he makes way more sense to me than UHAUL JOE! I'd fuck this shit up too if I were Ming. Valid.

#op of course you're team ming 😂 #uhaul joe 🤣🤣🤣 #joe is adorable though and just a puppy in love #he's just happy to be with ming 😭 #my stand in #my stand in the series

[ellsieee]

AAAHHHHH! Someone please talk to me about ep 4 of Blue Boys. I'm dying here. I have too many feelings. 😭

Also, I just realized that the beginning of ep 4 makes no sense if you didn't watch the uncut of ep 3. For the free viewers, we go from Jaemin seeing jagi calling and looking disappointed, to him and Nami flirting and being cute with each other at Jaemin's house. So I would recommend watching the ep 3 uncut before watching ep 4.

WHAT THE FUCK?? HOW DARE THEY GIVE US A BE??

They started so cute and flirty and in loveeee. How the hell did it all go to shit?

Oh I know. Sol what a desperate bitch!

I actually hate that they went the evil woman route

"Let's break up". Nooooooo. Don't say that Jaemin you don't mean it! 😭😭 Don't listen to that terrible Sol.

That Jaemin feels like Nami is way out of his league hurts so much.

When Jaemin said, "Take care" with tears in his eyes, I felt my lip start to quiver. 🥺

Not Nami being totally blindsided by this 180 degree change and trying to coax and smile Jaemin back to him. 💔

"If you let go of my hand, we'll really be over." Stopppp it hurts.

Then when Jaemin thinks about the heart fluttering (and sexy) times he and Nami had together and still painfully lets go of Nami's hand, my heart broke into 1000 pieces.

Why can't they just be happy bfs in love?

The acting was phenomenal. Both boys were great, but Jaemin's microexpressions with both Sol and Nami were spot on.

How could it end like this? This better not be the end! There better be a second season or a full length series or we riot. I'm not ready to let go of Nami and Jaemin's story yet. At worst, Sukfilm better give us the HE in the uncut. It would be kind of evil if only VIPs got to see a HE, but I guess it's a way to make money. I mean, I paid $3 to save WKX's life in Word of Honor, so 🤷‍♀️.

Jealous and vulnerable Jaemin is everything. I love how pissy Jaemin gets when he thinks Nami is making fun of him and being flippant about the whole thing.
