Monthly likes/dislikes
❣️ Only Friends - I mean. do I have to add anything lmao. that shit has me in a tight ass chokehold lmao. there are a few minor things that I wish were different but overall I'm obsessed and it's nice to have something that lives up to the hype. we don't get that very often. Thumbs in up.
👎🏻 Dangerous Romance - so far I don't like it, let's hope it gets better.

Besides the law case for ep 9 this episode was SO GOOD to the Young Woo and Junho agenda like??? That scene of Jun Ho really milking taking an eyelash off for Young Woo??? Him brushing his fingers hesitantly over her cheek, stepping closer to her to try and pluck it off?? Both of their heartbeats racing and getting shy at the proximity?? Jun Ho being a little bit jealous of how much Young Woo was talking about the defendant guy and missing her talking about whales??? BUT YET him smiling when she was grinning while talking about the exact same guy he was jealous of because he just can’t help it??
Young Woo being so genuine and forward with her feelings for him, taking her friend’s advice and helping him with his seat, car door, carrying things, etc?? Jun Ho getting confused and worried about her actions but then completely getting flustered when she blurts out another confession???
THAT LAST FUCKING SCENE her choosing the revolving door, something she has troubles with, over the door, an easier alternative, because maybe she has fun and fond memories of dancing the waltz through it?? Jun Ho coming in at the last second, completely out of breath from literally SPRINTING from his house to the firm after his realisation?? Him finally proclaiming his feelings for her directly while both of them stand there in matching pastel coloured clothes?? ITS ALL SO SOFT AND SWEET I LOVE THEM YOUR HONOUR—
