Addicted Heroin (2024) Episode 10

1. Saw the director’s tweet about not making a S2 and people criticising this and I’m sorry to say that I’m one of them. Many have actually dropped it. No matter how much I want a complete Addicted story, this ain’t it. The whole direction and toning down of story is taking out the essence of original Addicted. The books are dark and mature. And casting minors in a mature show shouldn’t have been done in the first place. Usually when I say this everyone assumes it’s about NC scenes, NO IT’S NOT!! The on1y one had two kisses and too were just “4 lips touching” kinda kiss, but it stood out despite Taiwan having multiple other similar bl stories. Each one of the “step brother” story is presented soo well by Taiwan I would never get bored of them. I’m eagerly waiting for the on1y one s2!!

   However, there are also people blaming the actors and bullying them. That needs to be STOPPED. It’s not their fault and they are doing well with whatever they are given. They are actually doing far better for a weak script and direction.

   There must hardly be anyone in bl world who doesn’t know about Addicted. It created history for even non-bl fans. Remaking this divine name should have been done more efficiently and with it’s original essence is all I’m saying.

   As for the actors, they could have been casted for any other high school enemies to lovers script. We are running out of those. So much potential I see. Mac (pop) could be the grumpy topper with a traumatic past, August (hero) could be the rich kid who gets a reality check on life when he was transferred to this school by his dad without money, and they slowly realise how each of their worlds have problems of their own and they grow individually while find comfort within eachother. That’s it!! No step brother thing, no problem with casting minors, wouldn’t be issue with direction etc etc, the pros goes on.

2. Spoilers
   No fking way are we breezing by shooting at your son 🤬 I still can’t even forget him threatening to throw Hero off the second floor in the first or second episode. No way in hell would I forgive him nor justify his abusive behavior because he lost his wife or he’s frustrated.
   Everyone is so focused on getting hero out of the vent talking about the love he has for Pop and the tragedy of his mom’s death like thats the biggest issue at hand rn. Lets talk about why he’s up there in the first place and who has a gun on their person. If he comes out then what? His father’s still a dictator in his life.
   And Seal is so creepy and freaky what type of juxtaposition was that?! 🤢
   Oh my gosh my anxiety is peaked seeing them get in that car after watching SWM and im remembering what the preview of this episode was. I guess I was anxious for no reason, so are they just gonna be on the run until Hero’s father gives up, if he ever does?
   I don’t know how to feel about this episode as a whole I’ll have to come back when I’ve sort out my thoughts.

3. I’m so glad this is over and I very much would appreciate it if they just walk away from the idea of a season 2.

4. And the worst / most evil dad award goes to… which dad points a gun at his son just because the son has a different opinion ugh 😑
   Finding the final episode is a bit difficult to digest, like running away from evil is the best solution. We just have to assume they have a happy ending 😁

5. WHY WAS NO ONE GETTING AS MAS AT THE DAD AS THEY SHOULD’VE I MEAN HE SHOT AT HIS OWN KID TWICE???? 😭😭😭 No amount of sadness or backstory could make up for anything that this dad did to either of them, especially since Pop isn’t even his kid. Even the mom is a horrible person like why are you focusing on the fact that your kid is gay and not what type of mom you are to care so much about that. Pop’s dad is such a good person and the only good person out of the 3 adults because he’s the only one that wants happiness for Pop and Hero. I really want to read the novel now to see how much they watered it down for the show. Btw what happened to Tiger and Only cause we just forgot about them 💀

6. I’ll take whatever is given because I’m a fan of the Addicted Heroin story. I could only think that Thai culture differs from other East Asian countries. Thus their interpretation or adaptation take a bit of a different turn from the originals. My Love Mix Up for example.lost the Mix Up essence mid way thru the series even though it was enjoyable to the end as a Gemini and Fourth kinda series.

   Addicted Heroin lost the Addicted essence when they made the ML a fluffy love couple.

   Anyway, I don’t like listing negative comments or blaming any party. Everyone did their best but failed to please the world. I still adore the cast of striving actors. A job is a job, but getting to work either with a good script or with a good production team is the way to success.

   That said. I can’t help but compare the beach scene with Stay With Me.

   It was random to even film this scene.

   Unlike Su Yu originally yelling “I Love You” whether he meant it to Wubi, but to cover up his embarrassment, he added “Ocean”.

   Hero’s interpretation of Pop words insinuating that they were meant for him. I’m sorry those lines were erroneous at that moment between them.

   Something is wrong with those two. After three days of shut in and starvation, they escaped the bullets firing at them. Yet they behave as if nothing significant happened to them.

   Wubi took Shu Yu out on a day trip to be themselves. Feeling liberated Shu Yu’s emotions erupted into yelling out what he had been holding in. That beach scene was meaningful and sensible to the story.

   Too bad that Bai Louyin and Gu Hai never made it out to the beach. And we know why. However, they managed to release their MV Walk Slowly
   

   At least this looks like a Happy Ending for Pop and Hero. 🥲

   Would there really be a Special Episode?
