Anyway I've been reading supernatural girlfriend.. I spent my entire ride on the rickshaw grinning bcs they were so cute??
Erm I'll admit it, Suyang (male lead) is quite the character, weirdo extraordinaire, whimsical in a literal sense, not to be mistaken with the tumblr standard whimsy, that's not it, he's like Howl but Howl at least was something else in the film, the novel him was so losercore — it had me convinced there was no romance going on, only bickering old ppl; ig Suyang at least tries to pull some romantic moment, like bro issoke you can totally rip shit straight out of romance novels just don't admit it immediately when your intended effect isn't found, mc is trying to process things! she's also very busy being in denial about it, she's can't exactly give romantic responses when she's trying to hide it!!!
Suyang is, quite unfortunately, overbearing, and this pairs' sense of boundaries, let's say it exists somewhere on the boundary of being here and not there. Like he respects some weird things (not entering rooms until explicitly given permission, btw they live together bcs of weird genius writer and his assistant thing that they've got going on, don't mistake it as a assistant x boss thing, he makes her go above and beyond doing just normal chores - I hope that sentence actually sentenced) but he has no problem overtaking someone's life (you're not driving one of those fancy cars, can you please stop?) but ig some parts are justified, what are you supposed to do when you know a woman with like zero sense of self preservation?
Lin Yixin (forgot to name mc lmao sry) was prepared to die by making a murder spiteful JUST SO SHE COULD COLLECT EVIDENCE. Woman is on another league entirely. Anyway this is a comedy, and it's pretty good. It's like watching two weirdos find each other.
I haven't divulged much, I just wanted to rave about the parts I liked and the part that drove me up a wall
