#Shin Ki Tae x Lee Wan
Text
I need y'all to understand exactly why Our Dating Sim is doing the "I left him because I love him" plot sooooooo well for me.
Lee Wan (Ian) kissed Ki Tae (Eddy). When Eddy stepped back and pushed Ian away, Ian ran away. They have not seen each other for seven years.
In that time, Eddy has searched for Ian, and when he finally found him, he launched a strategic plan to get Ian back into his orbit.
HOWEVER, he hasn't just forgotten that Ian ran away seven years ago, essentially abandoning him.
This is what I think other shows that attempt this miss. They either fall into "I'm just so happy to have him back and will forgive everything" OR "I'm holding grudges forever." Eddy wants Ian back, but he has been passively/aggressively reminding Ian that HE left him, not the other way around. Ian can be upset. Ian can be overwhelmed. But at the end of the day, IAN left Eddy, so while Ian was allowed to move beyond the incident over the past seven years, Eddy has been stuck there.
Ian tells Eddy he acted as if he didn't remember Ian, but Eddy corrects him that Ian acted that way first. Ian tells Eddy he is stalking him. Eddy reminds him that his blog was open to the public, he truly needed an illustrator, and has been professional with him.
And this entire moment was *delicious* because unlike other shows, Eddy doesn't let Ian slide. Ian can't avoid the truth. Ian can't pin this on Eddy. Eddy doesn't let Ian avoid answering. He confronts Ian, and the longer they do this, the more aggressive Eddy becomes. He even shoulder checks Ian.
Even when Ian begs, Eddy lets him walk away, but he doesn't let up.
Because Eddy DESERVES ANSWERS!
Ian's feelings of rejection were valid. Eddy pushed him away and stepped back, but he didn't give Eddy a chance to explain, and seven years later, he still won't.
Eddy doesn't just deserve answers.
Eddy deserves to be heard.

So I’m rewatching ODS and knowing what I know makes things both sad and funny
More on the hilarity side
For example we know Shin Ki Tae is the reason Lee Wan gets the offer from Re:Try but he’s all apathetic and indifferent to LW
But we also know how OBSESSED this man is. So watching him play it cool is funnier when you realize that inside he’s basically:

Our Dating Sim: 10/10.
Seriously, I highly doubt this will fall off my list of top BLs of 2023. It was perfection. Great execution/flipping of tropes. Lovely kisses. GAH I loved it so much.

Our Dating Sim is easily my favorite Korean BL of the year so far. EASILY! It's giving me good pacing, a good plot, and color-coded boys in love.
Eddy, our Green Guy, is a MENACE! This man told Ian, the potential Blue Boy, that he is Gameboy, has been following his blog like a boy with a crush, and that he isn't going to let Ian run away again.
And he did it IN THE BLUE, which is Ian's potential color!
Look at the barrier between them! Is Ian wearing green?!
Because Eddy is relentless, he made up his mind that Ian was going to feel his color love one way or another.
Sidenote: the characters on the board are in blues and that peach color, so is Ian actually a peach/orange color? I gotta figure out this kid's color! It has to be blue though. It just has to be!
Eddy takes Ian back to where it all started for them, and Ian is surrounded by Eddy's love color. He reveals that he has Ian's camera.
Even in the library, the blue and greens are there (Ian has to be blue. He just has to!).
But the best part is when both of them WALK THE LINE!
Eddy keeps getting closer to the true issue between them, but Ian keeps avoiding it and walking away ON THE LINE. They are both walking the line that connects them between honesty and avoidance, literally and figuratively, but Eddy finally closes the distance and confesses.
Look at the red over his heart! It became more exposed as the episode continued, finally being revealed once Eddy confessed. I don't know if the W is significant but he does like Lee Wan.
These four episodes have fed me so well. I love this show. Don't disappoint me!

"Have you been well? Without me?"
Because it implies the ugly desire that no, you haven't been well, you've missed me and you've thought of me and that has caused you to ache. Because in spite of this I care enough that I want the answer to be yes, I have been well, more than I want it to be revenge.
Because it's telling you that I haven't been well. That I have missed you enough to ache. That I hope you thought of me. That I was bold enough to think that my absence made a difference - that you felt it.

Shipper Tag Game
I was tagged in this game by @twig-tea, appreciate the tag but also bestie this is so many questions.
1. What ship were you completely obsessed with when you were a teenager, but now you don't care anymore?
Is this the part where I have to confess to being a superwholockian in my past? I no longer care about JohnLock or DeanCas, the evil is defeated!
2. Which ship would you consider your first one?
Oh it was almost certainly Beast Boy and Raven from Teen Titans
3. Your first fanfic belonged to which couple?
Magnus Bane x Alec Lightwood from Shadowhunters, I wrote a bunch of fanfics for them when I was younger. I did not anticipate how many views I would get on a couple of them, so that was cool! (shameless plug to check out my AO3 account, Sent2TheBeast. Unfortunately most of my fics are now locked due to how people feed content to AI software)
4. Do you remember the first couple you saw a fanart over?
Do I actually remember? No. Was it most likely something from Harry Potter or Supernatural? Yeah.
5. Did you ever get into ship discourse?
Baby, I write BL essays on tumblr, I think the minute I posted my first analysis I was signing up to ride the discourse wave.
6. Did you used to have any no-otp or have it currently?
Honestly any incestuous plot lines I am typically very against: Wincest, Brallie, etc.
7. Who were the couple in the last fanfic you read?
I read a beautifully written VegasPete fic by the wonderful @ginnymoonbeam
8. Currently, do you have any OTPs?
How much time do you have? Kurosawa x Adachi/Karan x Achi; Togawa x Nozue; Minoru x Yutaka; PatPran; MorkTawan; Han Baram x Im Hantae; Shin Ki Tae x Lee Wan; Kenji x Shiro; etc etc etc
9. Is there any couple that, to this day, you are extremely mad about not getting together?
Not that I can think of, but I will just give a generic shout out to all the queer baiting of old. BUT I DO HAVE COUPLES I AM EXTREMELY MAD ABOUT GETTING TOGETHER. AkkTheo and SandRay I am looking at you!!!
10. Is there any ship you used to dislike but now you think they are kind of interesting?
I will give this one to @bengiyo. I was not a fan of Korn and Intouch from Until We Meet Again because of how one-sided the relationship seemed to me. But conversations with Ben gave me deeper insights in to Korn and have had me reconsidering my impression of that relationship.
11. Do you have any ship that, in the past, was considered normal but now you would be cancelled over?
Tony DiNozzo and Ziva David would almost certainly get me cancelled considering Ziva's service history in Israel. Glad I was able to free myself of the cop/military propaganda that is NCIS when I entered high school.
12. What was your favorite crack ship?
I don't really embrace the crack culture, I am not a huge fan of crack vids, crack fics, crack ships
13. Who is the couple you read more fanfics of?
Of all the couples I read fanfics for, I think Malec from Shadowhunters was probably my most frequently read.
14. What most of your ships usually have in common?
I feel like 99% of the ships that have wormed their way in to my brain to the point of obsession (aka me making fan art, writing fics, etc) lies in the complexity and opposition of character's to one another. For example:
In Shadowhunters, the tension between Magnus being a warlock and Alec being a Shadowhunter and how they navigate the fact that The Institute and his own family have caused and continue to cause active harm to Magnus and the other Downworlders.
In Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom, the extremely contradictory nature of Kaz Brekker's existence and how that impacts his relationship with and to Inej. I wrote a number of Kanej fics because I could not stop thinking about the fact that Kaz and Inej want to touch each other, want to be intimate with each other, and their extensive trauma makes that damn near impossible.
In Pushing Daises, the inability to touch, the tension between loving someone so much and knowing that to touch them would be to kill them is just so fascinating.
In The Old Guard, Joe and Nicky having been together for 900 years when we meet them so you wouldn't think there is a complex tension there per say, but they were on opposite sides of The Crusades and had to work through that to cultivate a literally eternal love. And not just that (honestly less so that) but the tension between their line of work as mercenaries, their immortality, and knowing that one day, completely unannounced that immortality will stop. I could not stop thinking about how many times those two have had to watch each other die, waiting and wondering if their lover would come back to life this time around.
In Bad Buddy, Pat and Pran not only having to navigate their relationship with the incredibly antagonistic relationship between their parents but Pat having to parse through all these years of competition, hatred, fighting, to understand that all this time he's loved Pran.

15. What do you absolutely hate in a ship?
Lack of reciprocity. This is not to say the relationship has to be completely balanced. I don't think that it is a realistic possibility that every aspect of a romantic relationship exists in perfect harmony. But I've written about this before, my theory as to why so many BL boys get sick, in order to allow the person who has received more of the support throughout the show to care for their partner. I am a very outspoken Enchante anti because I hate Theo so fucking much. Theo's incompetency and Akk's incessant need to help him got Akk fired from his job, Theo lied about Enchante, and Theo moved back to France and made Akk work on his own to earn enough money for a motherfucking plane ticket to France. None of that being marketed as romantic is okay with me.
