Hello to the worst parallel in the world (affectionate)

@respectthepetty made an entire post about symbolism in Moonlight Chicken that was truly excellent and spurred a conversation in the comments that gave birth to another truly excellent post about potential for the central conflict in Moonlight Chicken.

And as I watch episode 3 I cannot help but think about this moment of foreshadowing at the end of episode 1 and the statement it is making.

Above is a photo of Wen's ID card with the Marina logo printed on the back of the ID and the words "Wen- Moonlight Chicken- Temp Staff" scrawled in marker on top of the plastic ID cover. The words here block out or overshadow Marina, showing Wen's attention and interest lies in the chicken shop above his interest in Marina.

At this point in the show, I had begun to suspect that Wen (and possibly Alan) would be involved in a Marina project that would potentially threaten the Moonlight Chicken Diner. When Episode 2 aired, this conversation between Kaipa and Jim made me think Marina would just be building new food market territory in the zones around where Moonlight Chicken Diner was located, driving up prices of both rent and food and making it impossible for Jim to continue to operate at the prices he is currently charging:

Enter Episode 3 where we get the Grand Reveal. Marina is planning on expanding their food court (which we already knew), they are not just going to purchase the buildings and put their own vendors in, they are planning on demolishing the existing structures and build something new over top. And what do we learn about the zones Marina is considering? The zones include the Moonlight Chicken Diner

And here is where the worst (emotionally) visual parallel comes in to play. The Marina logo with the tagline "creating a sustainable future" printed on top right corner of a photo of the Moonlight Chicken Diner. Looming over top of the building like it's waiting for its moment to strike. Even Jim's green truck is parked in front of the diner in this photo. He's in that diner, he's preparing food for the evening when this photo was taken, completely unaware of the fact that someone is outside, ready to tear his chicken shop to the ground. And respectthepetty, if you are seeing this post, I for one think it is very rude of the blue and red color coding to continue even in this photo with the blue wall and red lanterns.

Something something Moonlight Chicken being written over Marina on Wen's ID something something Marina building on top of the rubble of Moonlight Chicken Diner something something.

Anyway, the gay chicken show has consumed my life and we are only 3 episodes in.

I haven't finished episode 3 yet, only got through part one and felt compelled to make this post so unless they already handle it later on in the episode I am very interested in how Jim will react to finding out that he's the other man once Alan show up in full force, or what I will affectionately be calling 'The Cock Fight" but you know...that's a whole other post.

Also, please do NOT get me started on the irony of Marina's tagline being "creating a sustainable future" when they keep driving prices higher and are only interested in demolition of old historic buildings *cough, cough*

Edit: lmao, not me starting part 2 of episode 3 and having them give me the same parallel immediately.

You know what's crazy? Fourth's acting prowess. Li Ming is the exact opposite of Gun. You can feel Li Ming's raw anger about his situation simmering on the surface as opposed to Gun's happy-go-lucky persona. It is truly remarkable.

I may or may not have shouted JUST KISS FOR FUCK'S SAKE at the screen at the end of this episode so I think it's fair to say Moonlight Chicken done got me good. I really like the writing - it feels honest, a proper lived experience.

And, as a confirmed wait until it's a definite HEA binge watcher I now find myself watching two series as they air - this and Utsukushii Kare 2 which will both finish the same week. 3 more weeks of waiting and agonising and rewatching favourite bits until the next episode. Why do I do this to myself?

I am positive Wen and Alan have broken up

And this is flashback of Wen telling Jim his story and why he brokeup..

White shirt pics from same day. Wen is truly happy and now he is at peace. This HAS TO BE FLASHBACK.

Reason why Wen is not feeling any remorse or wrong is chasing Jim because he knows he is single, even if completely cutting off from Alan will be a slow process (they probably had a very long relationship)

Sorry. About what? About the liquor. I didn’t know Mum knew you. I thought you could get away with it. Forget it. I actually don’t want to be at the diner.

Thank you. For what? For being my ears.

Mix's specialty as an actor is eyefucking his character's romantic partner and making respectful forms of address sound slutty as hell.

Okay, it's been bugging me but exactly when does Wen sleep? I mean, he has a day job which I assume requires 8 hours then works for Uncle Jim from evening to dawn. WTH.
