Popular Post noonainwaiting Posted January 5, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2019 I was backreading and omg the posts from around when the kiss scene aired had me dying of laughter! You guys are hilarious! Those kiss scenes really made me want to go back and take a look at how far JH has come- Remember this chingus? Nervous JH and SH being as cool as a cat. credits@tumblr Man did our boy GLOW UP! Proud of you JH. credits@tumblr Spoiler I remember SJK used "sexy" to describe SHK at one of her fanmeets (correct me if im wrong). This screencap is right after they finished their first round of kissing. She isnt just sexy, she is a SIREN. That pull in her gaze, gods. I have no shame admitting I was admiring her more than Bogum. Major props to her for bringing that commitment that I have seen in very few K-actresses. Also, when JH shifted his kiss to focus on her upper lip, I just about died. Thank you both so much. 1 hour ago, dukesa1122 said: I also thought about the animation at the ending of the drama. At first I found it weird that they were horizontal and the girl is on top haha! But after a couple reruns I realise that the stars were falling with the girl. So @stardustvoid, @nikir i’m more inclined to agree with the sensible and not the sensual explanation hahaha Yes, chingu. After all that passionate kissing, they both had a tall drink of water and sat and read books side by side. My thoughts about the rating Spoiler I need to confess something- I am not a romance drama watcher. Romcoms and melodramas are usually not in my field of interest. In fact there are three currently airing dramas that actually do fall in my radar, but here I am, madly addicted and rambling on this forum. Why? Because this drama is an absolute feast- from the actors, to the production team, the cinematography, the poetry and artwork, its dripping with artistry. It avoids the pitfalls of the genre, which make it predictable for any kdrama viewer who has seen them for long enough- they are called tropes for a reason. I can enjoy the little leaps of fantasy such as Jh being the hero who saves the day in ep 10, because the story telling is so earnest. If it continues this way, it will end up as my favorite romance kdrama. There is also no avoiding that its sometimes simply a matter of taste as well, for a drama like this you just need to be in a certain mood and immerse yourselves and viola- see the magic in a so called "simple" love story plot. But we all here know its not merely that- there have been countless discussions on the wonderful nuances in this show. Sometimes like JH, its easy to find ourselves feeling lonely loving a rare thing, but I take great enjoyment in this forum and all the variety of posts- funny, rabid, sexy, enlightening, supportive, warm and thoughtful- just like this drama. I can only hope Korea appreciates it more, sooner or later. Whew! Including all these pics and gifs took me nearly an hour to write, I'm so thankful to the posters who keep supplying us with their wonderful posts and I appreciate your hardwork. Also surprised to see so many thoughts about the ex husband, especially from @bebebisous33, I hardly think of him at all while watching the drama so thank you for these posts, amongst your others, of course. 22 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear chingu, Do you know if we as international fans of whom some are nearly crazy over the romance and beauty of our OTP (some of us have ignored our other halves totally and repeat the kissing scenes till panda eyes appear) - are we able to respond and rebut that super- bias article against "Boyfriend" and its cast? I know ratings are not everything but I'm more concerned about the writer's anti-stand against the drama which is totally unfair to the cast and crew. If we make enough noise, maybe it'll prevent other journalists/antis writing against the drama now that it's coming to a near end. This drama deserves much more accolades than a piece of bullsh*t article and negative comments. Oh no, I already feel my withdrawal symptom coming..... I need 24 episodes please....never mind about the evil MIL and WS....let them do more stuff but I just want to see my sweet couple getting stronger by the episode and of course frolicking in bed the Cuban garden or even enjoying a session of intimate onsen catching snowflakes and frolicking in the warm spa... since the weather is freezing. It's a good way to keep warm together. Regarding the straying hand on the super-passionate balcony kiss, all I can say is that SHK must have been so relieved to purposely slim down for this drama....hehe.. that scene is so hot and if the PD fails to deliver the promised goodies.....he'll have us to reckon with. >.< 14 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right you are! ❤️ The reaction she made when she closed her eyes expecting for a deep kiss but KJH just gave her a peck first. Looking at her eyes, it’s like shouting “kiss me properly!” hahahaha 9 minutes ago, noonainwaiting said: Yes, chingu. After all that passionate kissing, they both had a tall drink of water and sat and read books side by side. I almost choked on my coffee. Im confused about the balcony kiss. Why did they insert it when it was supposed to be the next day clothes they were wearing? Am I the only one thinking that PD-nim made a mistake of adding that in? I mean he couldnt have fooled us into believing that the kiss from after JH said I love you progressed to the balcony, right?

Popular Post rosiepeonie188 Posted January 5, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2019 I've been re watching Encounter for God knows how many times. But after the hot-steamy-i love you confession-kisses, yeoksi.. Park Bo Gum-Ssi and Song Hye Kyo-Ssi, you two are skillful, gifted actors. Using PBG hair as the hint, all the PBG long curly hair in korea scenes, must be one of the initial shots (PBG in library, doing part time jobs, Airport scene when he got a call from Donghwa Hotel, at the bus on the way home from the airport when he still in 'unbelieving' stage that the girl he met is going to be his boss, hang out with Dae Chan and Hye In at moon snail cafe, having conversation with Hye In at the playground, and asking question about Cha Soo Hyun -the ice princess- while actually they (probably) haven't shot the Cuba Encounter scene). In episode 2, JH's hair is already short. When JH and SH eyes were met at the new empoyees meeting, JH looked awkward and shy, while SH stared at him in wonder.. I mean, THEY ALREADY SHOT THE LONG HOT STEAMY HUNGRY kissing scenes! and they have to go back to the stage of 'having a crush'.. and as the story goes they started to develop deeper feeling, which means they express their feeling by gaze, stare, smile, all the facial expession and body language, while again, they already shot that hungry kissing scene in Cuba! Unless PBG using hair extention in some scenes, for me they have nailed all the right emotion stages, even with those leap of scenes. Oh Wednesday, please come faster.. can't wait to see JinSoo going around Cuba, as their relationship sealed with a kiss! I mean kisses.. steamy kisses 17 10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I The PD didn't make a mistake, chingu. I discovered that we're like Pavlov's dogs...they give us a conditioned stimulus with images of the passionate kissing scene that's coming up and extracted a conditioned response from us - SALIVATING. So in summary: When a bell is rung (throwing out sweet images) = we expect food (kisses & hugs) so we'll tune in definitely to savour the 'gastronomical' delights of KJH and CSH, while they, in turn, devour each other! I believe the steamy balcony scene will be screened in ep 11, the night before they go back to Seoul. 7 17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the life of me, I dont understand why that scene was inserted there. Might have been a preview before the preview of the next episode (is there even such a thing?) or that really might have been a mistake. 16 minutes ago, rosiepeonie188 said: I mean, THEY ALREADY SHOT THE LONG HOT STEAMY HUNGRY kissing scenes! and they have to go back to the stage of 'having a crush'.. Let me add that they even had a press con and they were extremely awkward with each other, SHK didnt even hold his arm properly, it was limply curled on his arm and that they went ahead and explained first that PBG’s hyung (SJK) gave him the green signal to act without a burden. In a way, they were already preparing the viewers because this type of scene will happen. 8 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bracelet has been worn in the kiss scene filmed in Cuba(September 2018) while the ring might be filmed in January 2019. Production team has amazed audiences with detail story, script, and commercial CFs too. 53 minutes ago, dukesa1122 said: Im confused about the balcony kiss.

What with all the magical powers we have at zooming in and making gifs of their kisses. Their clothes were different! @dukesa1122 KJH and CSH would have probably stayed in Cuba for several days, their clothes would change. KJH might arrive Cuba on Friday morning and went to meet the coordinator to ask sending his letter to the garden owener but such coordinator denied because of garden owner's dissatisfaction. That's why KJH had to invade and sleep in the garden in order to attempt meeting the garden owner next day(Saturday). From the scene Secretary Jang booked the flight, CSH might arrive Cuba in Saturday morn and even after the garden owner accepted apology, CSH might have to stay in Cuba for days till working day for the coordinator in Cuba to deal the contract with tons of clauses among three parties (DongHwa, Cuba Coordinator, and Garden Owner) KJH has taken days leave so both of them could be in Cuba for several days till the contract with garden owner has completely done. 44 minutes ago, rosiepeonie188 said: I've been re watching Encounter for God knows how many times.

Park Bo Gum's and Song Hye Kyo's acting with switched time in Encounter and real time in filming are challenging indeed but both of them can nail the roles. Let rerun and think about the filming has not been sequentially done but skipping here and there between 2 strangers and 2 lovers, Thump up PBG&SHK indeed. 14 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This drama deserves much more accolades than a piece of bullsh*t article and negative comments. Korean fans of the drama were up in arms defending it. If we know Korean or if we have a Naver account, we can comment. To put things in perspective, it was an isolated article. Sadly, however, it created quite a stir among the Knets gauging from the number of comments and upvotes/downvotes for each. How can we help as i-fans? -Livestream all the episodes. -Always keep this thread HOT by posting our analyses/ insights of the drama (I have to say that a lot of the posts here can rival or even surpass those of professional drama bloggers) -Tweet these reviews of the drama using the Korean hashtags -Post these on IG -Comment in the drama blogs with recaps of Boyfriend. A credible positive review of the drama posted in these blogs may be able to change the perception of some about the drama. -Go to Naver and Daum and access articles about the drama and the cast. I posted the links many pages back. Sorry, I can't remember the exact page. -Watch the Naver TV Video Cuts of the drama. -RT all tweets of @CJn Twitter about the drama with the Korean hashtags -View official tvN YT links of the drama. -Stream official OST links I am sure others have suggestions. P.S. This thread is hot right now and it's not even the drama's airing day. BTS...Kim Jin Hyuk Parody of the Episode 2 Drunk Jin Hyuk Scene with Cha Soo Hyun in her car by B1A4..
