HIStory 3 Make Our Days Count

I finally found time to watch the first two episodes of the next History 3 drama. I agree with the negative opinions I read. It’s rather badly written and badly acted by most of the actors. And I find the main couple very boring. I fast-forwarded through most of their scenes in the 2nd episode.

But, and it will probably come as no surprise to anyone, I already kinda like the secondary couple. :)

Minor spoilers below.

The age gap doesn’t bother me, and at least one part of the couple is an adult. And he’s very handsome IMO. There was a forced kiss already, because of course there was. It is after all a HIStory drama. Sun Bo Xiang is pushy and immature, which I could to without, but he’s what, 17 or 18, so eh, I can stand it for a short while. I just hope he will change his behavior soon.

It’s just 10 episodes and I have nothing new to watch now, so I will finish it. But why, oh why can’t HIStory people make another drama about adults instead of high schoolers? Trapped was so good and iddy in just the right way. I want another drama like that.

Thank you! I got a vibe from the ending of the penultimate episode that they were going to kill one of them, so I stopped watching. Guess I was right.

Wtf, this really breaks all the expectations of the HIStory franchise. Not that it was a good installment, but they all had happy endings for everyone before this one, and I think nobody expected a change in that. It was the only "safe" BL thing to watch.

Ah, well. Thank you! This does save me some heartache. <3
