Everybody cries and Tharn gets punched again. What’s with this guy, he is a magnet for trouble, even his best friend is a moron but not of the harmless type. This could have been interesting, if show wanted to explore how nice people have to careful, especially if they are pretty and charming like Tharn, because they attract all kinds of weirdos. Instead we got this boring plot with TarTum, they were already the worst part of LBC and here they are yet again, for no reason. This show already has 2 leads victim of abuse and doesn’t really deal with that so why bother with yet another? Besides Tar is too young, any kid trying to have a romatic relationship with an adult gives me the creeps. Well, at least Type kept his cool and didn’t punch anyone, though Tharn’s fake friend deserved it.
I would not call him a magnet for trouble because that falls very close to victim blaming. He is not a well rounded as he think he is and he is stuck in suck a cycle that there is no sign of it breaking. It is sad, honestly.
Yes, I wasn’t trying to blame him but it’s no coincidence. His issues make him unable to deal very well with P’San, or Type’s problems, guess he doesn’t know exactly what’s abuse or what is to take advantage, which in turn can make him the aggressor as he “almost” was with Type in the first eps.
I’m just like… the Tar plotline is supposed to be about trauma due to sexual assault (and that’s what the show is supposed to be about?) but instead this entire episode is just Tharn not coping or communicating and Type being a jealous violent baby (but at least he wasn’t the one to punch Tharn this time).
I found this episode contrived and annoying actually. Why would Tar pop up suddenly the second that Lhlong told Type about him?
But I had this weird moment when Type at the end is like “I’m going to sort that kid out” where I was like, “YES GO TYPE” even though that behaviour is not acceptable and he’s a violent baby but, hey, if there’s one person in this show that Tar should be talking to it’s Type.
Yes, that episode was contrived, from Tar suddenly remembering he wants to go back with Tharn and being so pushy about it to Lhong talking about him. Maybe it was just a long excuse to make Tar and Type talk about a similar experience. Anyway, after this and The Effect, I want my BLs to forget this plot for a while!

I just think we could have gotten a situation where Type and Tar connect without all this nonsense.
