“why didn’t he just kiss him”

[inpursuitofnunchi]

there are very few dramas that burrow their way so deep into my heart that they become a part of my soul, my conscience - don't get me wrong, i like/love A LOT of dramas (im a serial liker/lover you can say) - but with some dramas, it's like I have a perpetual hangover. Kinda like "the one - kdrama version" (assume the one to be a group with a small number of elements) (sorry my stem ass is showing) (also sorry for the endless brackets, my adhd is also showing)

Anyway, the point is i am pretty sure that Love Next Door is on the verge of joining this set already inhabited by Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha, Misaeng and My Mister.

Me when the fixations-

Look. Listen.

I adore my Jang Hanseo Lives fanfics so much, but I also have plans on rewatching another K-Drama: Tale of the Nine Tailed. And here’s the thing, i discovered there’s a tag for brotherly Jang Hanseo and Lee Rang.

I need this. If Tale of the Nine Tailed has a fandom, I’m — grrrr. I’m planning a crossover between Tale of the Nine Tailed and Vincenzo, and it’s just Lee Rang bringing in this broken puppy Hanseo into his home, and just. Protecting him?

And Vincenzo’s there too, because why would i not give Hanseo his hyung? Like. Holy cow, the ideas i have for this.

Would anyone be interested?

idk what it is about the epilogues but hae-in calling hyun-woo her husband even after the divorce then crying to the restaurant owner that hearing that made her want to live i- HER REASON TO LIVE ISN'T HATRED ANYMORE

[dongyeonsimp]

Randomly imagining a very unrealistic scene of Han Seok snooping on Han Seo's phone, seeing a contact saying 'hyung' and thinking "Why tf does he think he can call me that, he's so damn clingy and annoying" but he realises it's not his number and that he's not the one saved as 'hyung'

[autistichanseo]

This is a long one !! sorry!! here's some true brothers angst thinking (with comfort at the end) for you guys though <33 (also read the tags after reading this if you do read this maybe cos I go on another mini ramble lmao)

Thinking about maybe when Hanseo and Vincenzo live together in Malta, since all Hanseo’s ever known is getting abused (both physically and verbally) and hurt over any mistake he made no matter how small, he automatically assumes Vincenzo will do the same to him (of course he would, that's what he “deserves”, right?).

So he tests the water with Vincenzo a bit.

To see what Vincenzo’s limits were, what to avoid doing to not get hurt, what the unspoken rules were (after all Hanseok had plenty).

It starts with small things, not tidying up after himself, breaking a plate “accidentally”, leaving milk out to spoil (also “accidentally”).

But Vincenzo doesn’t hurt him.

He helps Hanseo clean up the plate he dropped, checking to see for any possible injuries. He casually tells him to remember to put his things away when they’re all over one of the rooms. He only ever lightly scolds him (it was more a reminder than anything) in a light tone to make sure to not leave out the milk out next time for too long because it’ll spoil, but it was fine, that they could just ask a maid to add milk onto the grocery list.

It both confuses and scares Hanseo.

It meant he didn’t know what would set off Vincenzo, and he couldn’t handle the anxiousness that clawed at him whenever he was around him because of it.

Plus he was apart of the literal mafia, who knew what he and his mafia family (that also lived on the island) would do to Hanseo when angered?? He had seen first hand all of the various ways he toyed with Hanseok, and couldn't forget what Vincenzo had done to him before he joined his side, so who knew what methods he'd use when angered?? He needed to find out what to avoid, and fast.

Vincenzo starts noticing and asks if somethings wrong and why he's been avoiding him, to which Hanseo was terrified (and slightly relieved) that this was when the other shoe would drop and Vincenzo would shout at him or hit him.

But that never happened.

When Hanseo told him nothing was up, that he was struggling to sleep a bit lately so because of that he's just been a quite tired recently and out of it, Vincenzo seems to buy it and offered to get him a therapist, as after all it makes sense he’d be restless after everything that happened not too long ago in Korea. He ruffles his hair and leaves and Hanseo is just left shocked.

Why was he being so patient with him?? Hanseok would’ve hurt him at so many points in this test, why didn’t Vincenzo? (“Any other person would’ve by now right?”)

Was he toying with him? Making Hanseo more and more relaxed around him so that a real punishment would sting more and Hanseo would blame himself for it?

No, he shakes off that thought immediately. His hyung wouldn’t do something like that. It had to be something else.

He needs to know when the other shoe will drop. So he escalates things. Better to know now than fuck up later and have his hopes ruined.

So he keeps “forgetting” to go to his therapy appointments. He “tripped” and broke one of Vincenzo’s prized art pieces, he refuses to move his things or clean up after himself. He goes out to drink almost every day and comes home at like 3am, sometimes blasting loud music when Vincenzo's sleeping.

Anything. Anything for the second shoe to drop.

And eventually, Vincenzo can’t take it anymore, but it didn’t go as Hanseo expected it.

Vincenzo and him get in a huge argument, Hanseo’s refusing to listen (the shoe has to drop now right?) and Vin just exasperatedly like “why are you doing this?” but he isn't shouting at him or upset, just… concerned?

What??

Why wasn’t he mad??

As Vincenzo is asking him to explain why he was being like this Hanseo can’t bottle it up anymore and just bursts out with “because you won’t hurt me!!! why wont you hurt me??? just get it over with and scream at me for screwing up or slap me or anything! just do something so I'm not always anxious around you and... scared everything’s going to- I don’t know, straight up collapse at any moment or something!! just tell me what your rules are!!”

And that's when Vincenzo realises.

Oh.

His heart sinks. Because he now knows exactly why Hanseo’s doing this.

He’s trying to figure out what Vincenzo would hurt him for.

He thinks Vincenzo is going to hurt him eventually like Hanseok did.

Oh.

It takes Vincenzo a moment to process this and it's suddenly silent and Hanseo thinks this is when the other shoe has dropped.

He’s filled with fear once again, but this time it spills over any sort of relief he could’ve gotten at finally “finding out what Vincenzo’s limits were” because Hanseo can’t read Vincenzo’s face right now. He associates that unreadability with the unreadable expression Hanseok would have on his face before hurting Hanseo.

He's bracing himself to get shouted at or hurt so he goes back into Hanseok-mode and takes a step back, starting to cave in on himself as he's about to try to apologise and take back what he just said.

Thankfully, Vincenzo realises this and immediately snaps out of his head to reassure Hanseo. "Hanseo... I'm not going to hurt you... I was never planning on ever laying a hand on you. Ever. Nor was I planning to ever shout at you."

And Hanseo is just.

Stunned.

He doesn't know what to say so he's only responds with a meek "Why?"

For Vincenzo to be like "what Hanseok did to you wasn't normal or even okay in the first place, and you'll never get any of that horrible treatment from anyone again." (Vincenzo will make sure of that).

And Hanseo's just. speechless.

He can't figure out what to say or do so he's just there, starting to tear up like "hyung..."

Because this is when Hanseo realises that for the first time in his life, he's truly, truly safe now.

Because now he has a home, and he didn't just mean the island they lived on, but Vincenzo himself. Vincenzo was home to him, and he was more of a home to him than any fancy villa Hanseo had had before could've ever been.

Yeah, he'll be okay now.

After all, no matter what happens, he has his home to go back to.

[jubileesstuff]

Jang Han Seo: It’s quick, it’s easy, and it’s free: pouring river water in your socks!

Vincenzo : Why would I do that?

Jang Han Seo: It’s quick, it’s easy, and it’s free!

So everyone survives and gets another chance and it's only my baby fox who's not coming back? 😤

Isn't it unfair just how everyone gets to live and it's only Rang who has to die a tragic death? Lee Rang, the guy who never really got to be happy in his 600years of sad and lonely life? Even Moo Young after all the horror he brought upon the world is saved by Yeon and gets a second chance but when it's about Rang he's just supposed to die lonely with no one there for him, no one to sacrifice for him, no one trying to bring him back when it was actually him who sacrificed himself for Yeon and gave the couple a happy life that wasn't really theirs! They never meant to be together! It was their destiny to always have one of them dead if they got together! it was only Rang's sacrifice that changed it for them and yet he's the only one whose destiny isn't gonna change? The only one who's not going to be saved? The only one who's going to die for everyone else's happy ending? How is it even fair? He's the one who protected Yeon and the only one Yeon failed at protecting. Like everyone survives and gets a happy ending w/o even paying for their actions and it's only my beloved fox child who's not going to have a happy ending when he deserves happiness the most? Yeon always remember that Rang was your only brother who died for you and the only one you couldn't save...💔

This will always be a sad ending no matter what happens in parallel timelines and how happy everyone is there. The world in original timeline is a world without my baby half fox. It's still a world that Lee Rang left home on a snowy day and never came back. In original timeline the half fox will never come back home to his found family and no one is going to change his sad fate and bring him back.

This is just a sad ending to the sad story of a half gumiho who never got to be happy...💔

– Then what's this part?

– Your other feelings. You just don't show them.

S02E12

– There are things that should be said later.

–...You weren't the kind of person to postpone things.

[leahthedreamer]

So glad I watched Little Women (the kdrama) a whole year after its release I could only imagine the stupid takes on Injoo, Inkyung and Inhye because people lack emotional intelligence and empathy for flawed female characters.

[inpursuitofnunchi]

Baek hyun woo (kim soo hyun), the man you are! 😭😭😭😭😭

I never thought seeing a man crying on his knees before his wife, relieved that she is alive - would break me this way

Whumptober Day 9

I'm going to steal someone's kneecaps if this flops /lh

Okay, as per usual, we're going to start off with a little brief commentary. The fandom itself is Vincenzo and I once again wanted to highlight the dynamic between Chayoung, Vincenzo, and Hanseo; this one's a different kind of hurt, but trust me - this one is a bit rough for anyone who's ever had experiences with trauma

I'm also going to say it may become a series but I'm uncertain yet. Just bear with me in this since I haven't written for the characters in such a long time, so as usual let's begin!

Read below the cut. You know the drill

Plot/Summary

Jang Hanseo never expected to escape from his brother's clutches, but he found himself saved by Vincenzo. Though the recovery is far from over, at least he has his family in Geumga Plaza...

until an unexpected memory comes rushing back.

No. 15: Childhood Trauma/"I did good, right?"

No. 20: Emotional Angst/[REDACTED] (will be revealed later!)

Twinkling Watermelon - ep. 8

 Ayyo who is this woman…. Is this Sekyoung?? How do the brothers look the same even with diff moms? Also, it’s funny that maybe Sekyoung’s daughter is right, because Sekyoung seems happier and more loving with this alternate family & husband?

Oh god. It's another makjang style inheritance plot. Yay I love those 🙄 Also, how did she go from live in tutor to his wife... You know what, idc. But hey, it's the Squid Game lady!

wait, it’s the corrupt guy from Bad Prosecutor. How is he an asshole even in this? T-T Same with that poor lady, she was also a lil psycho in Revenge of Others…. Do you think she gets tired of playing a bully in everything

I wish I had Yichan's ability to make friends wherever he goes.

What a waste of food... That was the only option, long hair man??

Yes this is all very funny, seeing Yichan’s insane retelling, but can we get back to the plot pls??

I want that long coat tho… and, yeah, ok we need Choi Hyunwook in an action drama now

I don't really feel the chemistry between Eungyeol & Sekyoung's daughter but I like their bickering NGL

I foresee nothing good coming from our resident himbo going to pyscho house

Did evil stepmom make him go away?? Or was Chung-ah being tsundere again 😭

Does this guy even love his daughter? But I'm sure we'll learn later he was doing all this to help her or some BS like that

Imagine how Chung-ah feels seeing this random dude break down in front of her WTF?? Eungeyol straight up lives at Pyscho House?? Must be so awkward. Bro straight up called his grandpa a colonizer... Based

Eww, classism. so Pyscho girl's friends are just as bad as her. The way they were talking about mistresses falling for their servants felt so gross… How is this not a BL drama… that legit felt like a confession Oh god, not this weird ass love triangle 

[dongyeonsimp]

I just KNOW Han Seo was practicing his speeches for the public after his brother got arrested and repeatedly had to start over cuz he kept laughing
