i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping

XO, KITTY episode recap - S1: E2 "WTF"

Welcome to my stream of consciousness while watching "WTF". I’m starting with episode 2 because I just put episode 1 on out of curiosity and didn’t expect to continue the show, but I might go back and recap it later.

Big spoilers for season 1 episode 2 below. Please don’t spoil future episodes for me in the replies, reblogs or tags 😊

Not the MISUNDERSTANDINGS!

I was excited to hear and Australian accent from that professor (I am Australian).

Dae PLEASE EXPLAIN!!!!!

Yuri is an underhanded lesbian [affectionate]. Aaaand of course Yuri does the rom-com slip-‘n’-fall at the party lmao.

I’m gonna be obsessed with Yuri, I can tell. Icon. And she has a hot mum.

Being mean to Dae would feel like kicking a puppy, he does such heartbreaking sad eyes lmao. But I don’t blame Kitty, considering whats happening.

Dae, stop saying ‘I can explain’ and EXPLAIN!!!!

‘Dae’s crazed ex pen pal broke into our dorm to murder us’ hahahah.

Dae please EXPLAIN, this trope is so frustrating. ‘Accidentally assigned to the boy’s dorm’ is an unique trope though so I’ll add points for that lol.

Omg don’t gatekeep the dead mum necklace, Dae.

Dae has been blocked by Kitty. If only he’d had a full 24 hours+ just to spit it out and explain …

I love you Yuri but employee abuse isn’t funny.

HAHAHAH that’s sweet but I lost it when Dae was outside her door asleep on the floor.

Okay kitty in the leather pants, slay. Awww she sees her mum’s tree.

Dae is an expert at not being able to explain to Kitty, I can see why he’s so good in school. He excels in all he does.

Yuri you posted a MEME??????????? Haha. Ooh, her mama is scheming.

Hahahaha Dae running out into the garden in his pjs. OMG DON’T ANSWER YOUR PHONE DAE JUST EXPLAIN JUST EXPLAINNNNNN.

Yuri’s pink shirt! I know there’s scandal but her shirt steals the show. “The press conference” feels like fanficcy, I love it.

You know they cast Dae coz he can serve a heartbroken look like no other

Dae had no media training prior to his press conference  …. ‘“Lettuce” move on’; he killed it haha

YES IT’S FAKE IF ONLY SOMEONE EXPLAINED

The end.

Show-stealer:

My thoughts:

3.5/5

I enjoyed it! I had to suspend my belief over Dae being unable to explain and just clear it all up quickly, so it lost some points for that. But I LOVE all the characters.

Kitty is so cute, Yuri is a queen (I 1000% see where she’s coming from, she could be nicer to Dae about it but I get she’s under immense stress), Dae is my sad puppy boy, Min Ho is an icon and so is Yuri’s mum.

Lettuce not forget the employee mistreatment though lmao. Or maybe there's more to that story.

I like the fake dating trope being more of a lavender marriage type situation, that’s different and fresh. I’m curious about the connection between Yuri’s mum and Kitty’s mum. I’m hoping they were forbidden lovers but I’m probably wrong.

YURI – I am so excited for a more overt queer storyline, I’m sure it will come.
