HIStory 3: MODC Episode 10 (Full Reaction)
Added 2022-12-07 05:56:46 +0000 UTCI'm going to be thinking about this show for a while. When I go back to re-edit these videos for YouTube it's definitely going to be an experience reliving all of those moments. I can definitely see now why it's so interesting for you all as an audience to see my reactions to the show.
I can see now why Philip said he would never want to re-watch this show again. It's like a happy, fond memory that's been overshadowed by a bittersweet pain that's sharp and right in the heart.
It's going to take a while to process all my thoughts and emotions.
But I will say that this show will for sure be one of my top BLs of all times, despite it's tragically sad ending.
The chemistry these actors have with each other as couples and their incredible performances throughout the show is honestly some of the best I've ever seen in a BL. The moments felt real and honest. The level of intimacy we get is beautiful and pure. And every episode you fall in love with them as a viewer, just as the characters themselves are falling in love with each other. Which makes the stab in the heart in the end as painful as it is.
I can't help but feel empty since they chose to never actually show what happened right after the accident. We never see Hao Ting freak out or react to seeing what happened to Yu Shi Gu. We never see the funeral. We never see how is parents react to the news. We never see what happens when they come over for dinner only to find out about the accident. Instead we're blindsided by not only the news of what happened, but also that we've already jumped ahead to years later.
A part of me would have wanted to see it, but I also feel like seeing all of that would have crushed me even more. It's an interesting choice that they made to do a time jump and explain things that way rather than showing us what happened. Making the audience feel left out of all of those moments almost makes the gut punch of learning about what happened hurt even more. It adds to the feeling of having the rug pulled from under us. And I can't decide if that's beautifully creative storytelling, or just fucking cruel LOL. I guess it's a little bit of both.
ALSO WHO THE FUCK WAS THE YU SHI GU DOPPLEGANGER?! Did he really look exactly like him? Or is it just Hao Ting's imagination? Is it a metaphor for when someone that is grieving latches onto someone that reminds them of a person they lost, because they see so much of that person in them?
LASTLY, it's ILLEGAL that this cast doesn't have any more BLs together because HELLO? Their chemistry is AMAZING! Can't we get another BL with the main couple but have them do a completely different story with a happy ending?! PLEASE? I feel like everyone who watched this show could get some peace and closer from seeing them do a show like that. UGH let's a start a petition HAHA.
Anyways, I've already written a shit ton more than I thought I would. If you read this far, thank you for your time. I hope you enjoyed my reactions.
Shout out to Mr. Dan Beasly-Harling for being the most enthusiastic person to recommend this show to me. I hate you for the emotional damage, but thankful that I got to experience everything else this show had to offer.
I hope you enjoyed re-watching the show with me! Looking forward to watching more with you all soon.
Next up, History 4! 🤗

2023-09-30 03:20:40 +0000 UTCPages: 250-260 From original book not official translations and some phrases have been changed for better English interpretation ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Xiang Hao Ting opens his eyes, and for a moment he does not even know where he is, who he is; his face feels a little cold, just like the feeling of touching water and having a cool breeze blow over it after. Turning his face to the side, Yu Xi Gu’s sleeping face comes into his line of vision. It’s easier to look at Xi Gu’s face now, which has become fuller since their days in high school. The only things that haven’t changed are his long eyelashes and his white as porcelain skin colour - even though he’s running outside more frequently now, Xi Gu’s skin has not darkened. His breaths are deep and long, and this is the breathing technique most suitable for being on a mountain. Hao Ting and Xi Gu watched each other’s breathing pattern and rhythm closely before this to practice breathing in this manner. People who did not know what they were doing exactly may have thought they were practicing Lamaze Breathing instead.* Ah, breathing. Hao Ting slowly remembers that where he and Xi Gu are right now is Paiyun Lodge. He dreamt of that scene again. His entire body is drenched in cold sweat, and the sleeping bag he is in is now abnormally warm and stuffy because of that. Shifting his gaze towards the outside, he sees that a ray of sunlight has already entered the room. Hao Ting thinks that they still have an hour before they have to get ready for breakfast, and he can use the time to wipe himself dry. He does not expect Xi Gu to open his eyes the moment he moves. “Is it time?” Xi Gu asks and keeps his voice low, because it’s not just the both of them in this room. There are other hiking friends with them, and loud noises can easily disturb the rest. “Not yet,” Hao Ting replies, then points at his wet hair. “So wet…” Xi Gu might as well get up, and with light movements he finds the dried towel sitting on top of the backpack next to their bedrolls so he can help Hao Ting dry his hair. Under the dim light, he sees that Hao Ting looks both a little sick and upset, and idly asks if Hao Ting had a nightmare. Xi Gu does not expect Hao Ting’s body to shudder hard at that, both his brows furrowed tight. “You had a bad dream?” Xi Gu’s heart aches for the man. After all, before they slept the night before, Hao Ting did seem a little unsteady and anxious, so he’s not surprised that Hao Ting had a bad dream. “I dreamt of… the day you met with the accident, and your entire body was covered in blood…” The accident happened such a long time ago, but thinking about it still makes Hao Ting afraid, because the details in his dream were exceptionally clear, and the fear and terror he felt from that day is written deep in his bones. That car accident left Xi Gu with severe injuries, and at one point, his heart even stopped beating. The Xi Gu in his dreams even left him, leaving Hao Ting behind to slowly walk through life on his own. Even when he went to university, entered a well-known biology research center, at his side one person was always missing from his side. That feeling is as if his heart was dug out, leaving behind an empty space. Regardless of when he’s asleep or awake, Hao Ting feels the panic and fear so deep, the kind that leaves him with a face covered entirely in tears when he comes back to himself…** “It’s been so long already…” Xi Gu squints, but in his eyes the joy at having someone care for him like this is revealed, as does the gentleness and softness his feels for the one he loves. “I’m still here, don’t worry.”*** Hao Ting embraces Xi Gu so tight, with the strength of someone trying to absorb Xi Gu into his body. Xi Gu is the person whose hand Hao Ting has held in his all this time, and Xi Gu is his prized treasure. Not even talking about losing him, if Xi Gu hurts himself usually by knocking into or hitting things, Hao Ting’s heart will ache for half a day at least. “We promised that we’ll be together! You’re not allowed to break our promise!” Suddenly, Hao Ting feels the person in his arms jolt, and the hand on his back is lightly shaking as well. When he realizes what a dumb thing he’s doing right now, it’s too late. How could he pass his anxiety and fears to Xi Gu? Hao Ting treasures him so much, and usually, if he has any frustrations or things he’s unhappy about, he would keep it inside and swallow it. “It must be because I wasn’t feeling well yesterday before I slept!” Hao Ting blinks as he speaks, even though his tone is a little more high-pitched than usual. “Shhhh!” Xi Gu quickly presses his hand over Hao Ting’s mouth, because it wouldn’t do to wake the rest of their hiking party up. “Talk softly. All is good, I’m here, I won’t leave you all aline.” Hao Ting blinks with his two huge eyes, and with muffled noises of assent, he nods in agreement. However, the fear and anxiety in his eyes do not vanish completely. Just like the fog outside, Hao Ting finds his emotions hard to dissipate in the moment. ~~~~~~ The both of them leave Paiyun Lodge after breakfast with their friends. Today is the second day in their hiking plan, and they plan to head straight for the mountain’s peak before going back to the lodge, retracing their steps. Then, they will leave the mountain tomorrow. Hao Ting began to hike and climb after attending university, and Xi Gu, on the other hand, has not exercised in a long time and is extremely skinny and weak in physique. Not to mention that car accident which left him resting for a long, long while after, so no matter how much Xi Gu likes being close to the forests and nature, there are undeniably some physical limitations for him. However, a long journey begins with a small step, so after much preparation and consideration, they decided to choose a three day and two night hiking schedule that is low on difficulty as their first step to conquering more mountains in the future. On the way up to the mountain’s peak, their legs are steady as they climb because the backpacks they chose are able to efficiently hold the weight of all the items they need without putting the stress of the weight on their legs. At first, Xi Gu said that they should pick the cheapest bag, the cheaper the better, but Hao Ting refused. He’d done his homework, and the backpack and hiking shoes are the most important items to spend money on. “You have to carry the backpack the whole day, and shoes carry your entire weight!” With this, Xi Gu gave into Hao Ting, but Hao Ting also knew that Xi Gu doesn’t have much savings he can tap into for this, so he secretly paid for the items for Xi Gu. When he was exposed for it, he still dared to laugh and grin, and directly said that this was the duty of a husband! Xi Gu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at that. The both of them are the least experienced among the group, so they are placed at the very back of the group with the more experienced leader keeping up the pace behind them. This is so that if anyone leaves the team or feels uncomfortable at any time, he can react quickly and lend them a hand. Along the way, everyone’s pace is not fast. After all, this is not the kind of two day and one night hike which requires them to hurry down the mountain, and so there is the occasional chatter and laughter among them. However, Hao Ting is a little more quiet, and only when Xi Gu turns around to look at him does Hao Ting smile. He is still thinking about the dream from yesterday. He knows what the cause of this dream is, and while the scene at that particular road where the accident occured didn’t leave him with any regrets, his memories of that day are clear, and it has permanently left a shadow of fear in his heart. “Are you still okay?” asks the leader in concern when he sees Hao Ting starting to stray away from the main group. “Huh? Oh! Yeah, I’m good, I’m just thinking about some things…” Hao Ting replies. “You have to stay focused, if you lose your footing and injure yourself you’ll have to go back to the lodge and rest.” The leader pats at his shoulder and brings him back, closer on the inside. There are two routes in total to Yu Shan main peak - Dong Bu’s ‘Ba Tong Guan’ route which is more difficult, where even experienced climbers usually stay off this path, and instead they use the route on the West, the ‘Tataka’ route. It has a complete, properly marked out route and the necessary facilities and is beginner-friendly. All they have to do at this time is to hold onto the route’s chains and watch their own footsteps, and they will be able to see the gorgeous view of the mountains as they make their climb upwards. The fog is gradually vanishing as the sun inches upwards, and the air is especially fresh. Hao Ting quietly hastens his footsteps to follow Xi Gu. Seeing that his forehead is filled with sweat, Hao Ting takes off the towel at his waist and helps him to wipe that away. “Thank you,” Xi Gu remembers the breathing technique and is making his way upwards steadily one step after the other, but he did not miss the conversation between the leader and Hao Ting earlier, so in between his breaths he manages, “You’re still thinking about that dream?” “Hnn? No! I was just thinking, when we finally hit the peak, how beautiful that view will be!” he lies quickly. “The scenery will be beautiful and it’ll make you forget that dream,” Xi Gu smiles. He is no longer that adolescent, innocent young man anymore, and it’s not as if he’s been with Hao Ting for only a day or two, so Xi Gu is familiar with all of Hao Ting’s moods. He knows that at this point, he cannot argue with Hao Ting. Following Hao Ting’s lead and what he says is the right way to understand him. Furthermore, just arguing with him on whether Hao Ting is concerned about that or not has no meaning. Xi Gu returns the towel to him and continues the climb, and this time he doesn’t forget to hold onto Hao Ting for a few steps before releasing him. Holding hands while climbing is considered a pretty dangerous thing, but the warmth from Xi Gu’s hold lingers in Hao Ting’s palm, and successfully pushes the fear and anxiety to the back of Hao Ting’s mind. It will not disappear entirely, but he can exist together with it instead. ~~~~~ The moment they reach the peak, Hao Ting is blown away by the view before his eyes. It is a whole stretch of blue and there is not a single cloud in the sky. Forests are abound at a glance and under the glorious rays of the sun, it seems as if a layer of gold dust was scattered across the forest. The sight is blinding. Yet, even with the sun, they do not feel hot and just wipe at their sweat with towels, unafraid of catching a cold with the breeze. The leader gets everyone to put their bags in a particular area, and if they want to take photos they can use this time to do it. If they’re hungry, they should eat some bread and chocolate right now. When the time is up, everyone will line up again and make their descent to Paiyun Lodge. After everyone takes moment to catch their breath, they begin to head towards the peak’s sign to take a photo momento, and the older members of the group say they want to take more photos to boast of their climb to their friends, so the atmosphere is particularly warm. Hao Ting does not join them in their fun, and instead brings Xi Gu slowly to the side, a distance away from everyone else. He really wants to take photos too, but more than that he wants to be glued to Xi Gu. After all, the only reason why he found an interest in the mountains and skies is because Xi Gu likes it. “It’s a bit of a pity that we can’t come up here at night,” he says. “It’s okay,” Xi Gu, surprisingly, is not concerned about that much. After all, this is not their final goal, but their beginning. “When we go back to the lodge, we can tell them, that we’ve made the first step and we are getting closer and closer to them!” Their goal then was to climb the Himalayas, to stand at the point that is closest to the stars to tell Xi Gu’s parents that everything is good with him. “Hnn! They’ll definitely be very happy.” “You think so?” Xi Gu’s smile is exceptionally sweet, and with a brief peek to the people gathered at the sign taking photos, chatting and admiring the view, and making sure that no one is looking at them, Xi Gu then dares to give Hao Ting’s cheek a kiss, “Thank you.” “Instead of saying thank you, you might as well kiss me a few more times!” Hao Ting teases him, raising his eyebrow,. “We’re outside right now!” Xi Gu definitely will not kiss him right here. The both of them exchange glances and laugh, and while there are no kisses, Xi Gu replaces that by secretly digging his finger into Hao Ting’s palm. A silent promise is more beautiful than any declarations at this point. So immersed the both of them are in their world that it is only when the leader announces their descent that Hao Ting and Xi Gu rush to the sign and ask a few of their group members to take a few photos for them. The older members of the team, seeing them like this, start to laugh loudly and say that these two children are just too adorable. ~~~~~ In the evening, the members of team do not sleep early as they are still sharing their excitement about reaching Yu Shan’s peak, and they even plan to continue on some other climbs together. Laughter echoes through the room, and influenced by the merry atmosphere, he too laughs. “Happy?” Hao Ting asks, his hands holding onto a hot cup of cocoa. “I’m really happy! I can be together with you, and I can come and see dad and mom, so I’m really happy!” Xi Gu beams, his smile so radiant. “Oh right, are you still feeling not so well? Is there a buzzing in your ear, dizziness or do you feel like throwing up?” “Nope!” Hao Ting knows that Xi Gu wants to ask about his dream and not his physical well-being right now, but strangely enough, since hitting peak and returning to the lodge until now, he has not thought about the dream again. Instead, his mind is set on which other climbs they can do next. While Yang Ming Shan isn’t actually difficult, but the both of them can go to the onsen with that trip, which is quite attractive. “That’s good. If you’ve got nothing to do don’t dream of those things. You and I are going to live until we are a hundred, and we’re also going to climb all the mountains in Taiwan, then set our sights on those overseas, and conquer the world’s highest peak.” Their ambitions sound entirely not realistic, but they are also faced with a future teeming with possibilities and opportunities, so they do not worry about whether it is realistic or not. They only fear not making the first step, and now that they have reached Yu Shan’s peak, then that is their first step. Hao Ting laughs awkwardly, and says, “I won’t dream of it anymore.” He lifts his head up to look at a sky full of stars, and even if they cannot see the Rosette Nebula, the entire star system is connected. “Papa Yu, Mama Yu, I know you can hear me,” Hao Ting reaches for Xi Gu’s shoulder and brings him into his embrace, and with his other hand he secretly takes out a small box from his pocket. He has prepared for this moment for a very long time, and he knows that giving it to him here is most meaningful. Xi Gu lifts his face up to look at him, and does not realise that his middle finger is being held by Hao Ting. “We worked very hard today, and we managed to climb up Yu Shan. Sadly, we were unable to do the climb at night, otherwise I’ll be able to tell you guys directly.” The man in his arms uses the back of his head to lightly knock against Hao Ting’s chest, the moment especially sweet. “In the future we will also continue to climb other mountains, and we will definitely climb up the Himalayas, and at the point where we are closest to the stars, I will ask you both to entrust your son to me. Before that, I have to ask the both of you to be a little more patient. I promise, I will treasure your son and be very good to him.” “What are you saying, so serious…” Xi Gu laughs at him. “Xi Gu.” At the call of his name, a solid, round object is secured at the bottom of his middle finger. When Xi Gu finally reacts and raises his hand, he sees that it is a silver ring. No other embellishment or decoration, only a single diamond set in the middle of the band. It is sparkling, and more blinding than any of the stars in the sky at the moment. “This ring, is an engagement ring,” and Hao Ting seriously places another ring into his palm, “Inside I engraved both our names, and I feel that on a special day like today, we need to commemorate it properly.” He stresses that this ring isn’t very expensive, and is perfect to symbolize the start of their journey together, because he is also afraid that Xi Gu would be troubled that Hao Ting spent too much money on this. “When we finally climb the Himalayas, then it’ll become a wedding ring. When that time comes, you’re not allowed to say no, and you can only say ‘I do’.” “Xiang Hao Ting…” Xi Gu is surprised to the point of speechlessness, and he is clutching onto the ring so tight that it is leaving a mark behind. He doesn’t know whether to scold Hao Ting for spending money like this, or should he say that Hao Ting is truly too meticulous, that he would prepare such a surprise, shocking him to the point of tears. “Who does it like this!” Xi Gu ends up scolding, his voice a little hoarse. “I do!” Hao Ting says with no shame. After, he urges Xi Gu to help him put on his ring, and warmed up from the heat of the hot chocolate, can clearly feel the engraved words on the inside of the ring against their skin. As he softly calls ‘Xi Gu’, Hao Ting kisses along Xi Gu’s face until he reaches his lips. The scent of the sweet and thick hot cocoa becomes stronger, along with their quickening breaths with every kiss. In the end, it is Xi Gu who remembers that they are still outside and situated in the midst of a mountain, so they should both avoid doing anything that would cause their breathing rhythms to falter. Only then do they return from the edge of losing control from their hot kisses. “When it’s time for the wedding ring, it’ll be my turn,” Xi Gu says in satisfaction. He hides himself in Hao Ting’s embrace, and uses his coat to cover his own body, leaving only his head outside, looking just like a little animal afraid of the cold. “Sure, we can choose the style we want together. Sun Bo recommended a store to me, and I picked these there…” The both of them continue to chat, and the stars before them sparkle, as if giving their blessings to Hao Ting and Xi Gu who have decided to walk down the rest of their lives together, hand in hand. -------------------------Hope you enjoyed this it was also sent to me by a friend already translated.

2023-09-29 16:57:05 +0000 UTCIt was beyond belief. No less than an hour ago, they were preparing lunch for a visit with his parents. A day like any other violently disrupted by an event so surreal. Xiang Hao Ting sat white-knuckled in the hospital waiting room, sinking so deeply into his own thoughts that he was barely aware he occupied a body. He recalled the screeching of tires and the concerned shouting of onlookers. Images of a motionless figure bent in the road accosted him, the loosely-fitting clothing draped strangely over it. He couldn't contain these images, they kept coming. His breathing became shallow. He'd never seen anyone in this state of injury before. It was so unfamiliar an experience that the form itself seemed like it should have belonged to a stranger. Filled with terror, Hao Ting approached. Bleeding lacerations and scrapes marked Xi Gu's gentle face. One arm was angled unnaturally beneath him. He was very still. Hao Ting suddenly became far too aware of his own body. The sensation of gravity pressing his weight into the chair felt crushing, his numbed extremities were tense with adrenaline that no longer served a purpose, his unseeing eyes were stinging and blurry with tears. The air seemed thin, he couldn't breathe in enough of it. He began trembling and gasping when his shoulder was gripped by a strong hand. His parents had arrived and his father maintained a pacifying hold on Hao Ting until he was able to regulate his breathing. He rose to his feet and held his parents tightly. Hunched over to meet their heights, he buried his face somewhere between them. They all shook with the force of his weeping. --- They were led down a long hallway glossy with white tiles. He could feel his heart beating in his throat as they followed the nurse guiding them. They soon entered a single-occupant room. Xi Gu was alive. Emotion overwhelmed Hao Ting. He was filled with joy and his worst anxieties were alleviated. His heart swelled with gratitude towards the hospital staff, towards the passersby who didn't delay calling an ambulance. He was grateful to have another chance to hold him, to look into his kind eyes, to kiss him, to scold him for not being careful. Still, Xi Gu's appearance was alarming: bruises and stitches blemished his exposed skin; he was hooked up to an IV; there were wires attached to his chest and a complex-looking brace with pins sticking out of it wrapped around a propped-up arm. Hao Ting sat by Xi Gu's bedside and brought his hand to the other's uninjured one, softly caressing the chafed skin of his upturned palm. He imagined how much more frightening and painful this experience must have been for Xi Gu. He desperately wanted to turn back time at this moment. This didn't need to have happened. The guilt that followed was nauseating. He regularly reprimanded Xi Gu for his inattentiveness. It worried him deeply. The amount of times that boy nearly ran headlong into trees while distracted by his phone or walked directly into an oncoming biker's pathway while in a hurry was incredible. They could have finished making lunch without the salt they'd left at the store, they were already running late. He should have known that sending Xi Gu on a rushed errand was a bad idea. Maybe this wouldn't have happened if- The sound of laughter nearby interrupted his line of thought. A pair of passing nurses were smiling over a shared joke. The mundanity of the exchange was striking to him. His gaze lingered absently on the doorway. That anyone could be experiencing a routine day on the job felt unfathomable, enviable. --- At long last, a doctor made her way into the room. Spurred by Hao Ting's insistent questioning, she provided a very detailed account of the previous several hours. Xi Gu underwent surgery to repair a broken arm. The bone had fractured in two places and required a specialized brace that held a complicated array of pins in place. He also sustained a slight concussion and some topical abrasions. She assured them that Xi Gu's injuries were not as serious as they might have appeared. He would be allowed to return home in a day or so. Relief washed over Hao Ting, a release of tension that had been building since the morning. The gravity of the situation was sobering. At last, he felt a sense of ease but remained emotionally exhausted. He directed an appreciative look towards his parents, who seemed to have been trying to figure out a way to cover the cost of the hospital stay. When he returned his attention to Xi Gu, warm brown eyes met his own. The breath caught in his throat and his heart leapt. Xi Gu inhaled as slowly and deeply as he always did in the morning, blinking away the sleep in his eyes and grimacing away from the bright ceiling lights. "Hi," came his soft voice. But Hao Ting was already peppering his lips with small kisses, his own cheeks moist with tears and reddened with elation. "I love you, I love you-" he repeated over and over, cradling the other's precious face. Xi Gu grinned, his lips meeting Hao Ting's through visible confusion. It was as if he'd been expecting to wake up in bed at home and was surprised to find himself elsewhere. Hao Ting delighted in his groggy cluelessness. He was as Yu Xi Gu as Yu Xi Gu has ever been. He would be okay. They would be okay.

2023-01-31 18:57:13 +0000 UTCI just watched this show a couple days ago, and I feel like it's going to take awhile to leave my body. It's really moved me. I'm so confused as to why Wayne Song (HaoTing) hasn't done a million more shows regular or BL. He was incredible in this. Part of me so desperately wants a season 2 with an amnesia storyline, and part of me thinks that would be a bad idea and this is a perfect season that shouldn't be messed with.

Really enjoyed watching the series with you, as always ☺️ Just wanted to let you know, that Sun Bo and his bf have a guest appearance for some episode in the series “History 4: Close to you” ✨ If you’re interested in seeing more of them and how their relationship develops I recommend to check that series out 🧡
Judith Ratz
2022-12-08 15:22:01 +0000 UTCThank you so much for watching this series! I really enjoyed your reactions, as you're someone who wears your heart on your sleeve, and doesn't shy away from allowing things to be personal and talk about how they really make you feel. I cried along with you 😄😭 So, I want to offer this perspective, as someone who has watched this series more times than I can count... It's never really spelled out exactly what happened, and the audience are left to imagine. And although most people assume that Yu ShiGu is dead, here's my perspective for what it's worth. I think that the evidence suggests that ShiGu got into an accident and lost his memory and/or his personality changed. My evidence for this is: 1) It's the same actor who plays the 'new guy'. It would be easy enough to have some other guy be a potential future love interest, so it must be deliberate to use the same actor. The voice and mannerisms have been changed, which for me is designed to show the new personality. 2) The lame joke that HaoTing made in the coffee shop was one that ShiGu told him. I think that HaoTing is hoping that he can find the right combination of words to awaken the old ShiGu he knew. He also maybe hopes that by going on hikes with him, doing activities that he and ShiGu promised they would do together will have the same effect. 3) The funeral was a swift and private affair, and no one went. Ok... That makes no sense. Why does HaoTing have all his things then. It seems more likely to me that they had a ceremony to honour and mourn the 'old' person who was gone. 4) At the end, SunBo says something along the lines of "now that you've met him, don't you want to try to have a relationship with him". I think that's the clearest evidence that it's the same person. HaoTing says that he doesn't, because he's not the same person. I think that's the most telling of all, and also explains why it's taken HaoTing so long to mourn his loss and realise that it's time to move on. I think the scene with the mother near the beginning is just incredible. Both actors were amazing in that scene, and just like you, everyone starts crying before they even really know why 🥺 I understand that this series is a bit too brutal for some people, especially those who prefer the lighter and fluffier BLs, but I think this series is so impactful and one of my favourites ever. The harsh reality of life, is that we will have to say goodbye to everyone in our lives one day, whether it's us who leave first or them. And it's important to treasure all the moments we have together, because when we are old and grey, it's those moments we will look back on and remember fondly. It's almost too real, but it speaks to an inescapable truth about the human condition, and I love that it doesn't shy away from that. With regards to the rest of the HIStory series, this is the only really sad ending, so don't panic! 😂 People love Trapped, but my next favourite is HIStory 2: Crossing the Line. It's very fluffy. And short. I hope you recover from this, and I hope you don't hate me for pushing you to watch it! 😬😄
