Don’t get … Continue reading →

Okay, this was totally unexpected. After two weeks of radio silence from SBS until hours before the next episode airs, I was not expecting to see the written preview for episode 13 of Lie to Me released so soon.

How strong is your capacity to handle angst, Best Love fans? My tolerance is pretty high, yet I ended up crying through the happy part of episode 13 of BL today and then smiling through the sad parts.
