i just finish watching Epi 18...this episode is sad though...but im happy that XQ is willing to give AJ a chance and go out with her...she finally decide to give up ZS...though she can't but she's trying her best...

i felt very sad when XQ cry and it's kinda nice of YS to go ask ZS about him liking the gurl or not...in muh opinion..i don't think YS like the Bai Wei Lan gurl....he's accepting XQ as time passes..

i didn't like the part with the Bai Wei Lan and her grandpa..it's just annoying...and the part she wanna talk to XQ..that bug the heck out of me...i was like what the heck is she gonna say to XQ?...ZS didn't help either..when that old man ask him about XQ..he says she's stupid and stuff...grrr..i feel like punching him...

Ah Jin and XQ's date seem fun..at least she gets to leave everything behind when she's with him and enjoy their time together...Ah Jin is so happy..AJ is so sweet to some part...im so happy AJ....after all those years he'd been in love with XQ..now he gets a chance that he wanted for so long..the part at the beach with all XQ and her friends seem very fun...AJ was chasing her around and everything and she really enjoy herself...and that's good..she deserves the best at this moment..oh yeah AJ proposes to XQ..and i think it's sweet....

the part when XQ drop the cup noodle on her feet and bathroom scene was cute in some way..ZS seems very thoughtful when she got hurt..lolz..he says she have fat feet..lolz..that came out of nowhere...ahhaha..but then i felt bad for ZS though...he have no choice but to give up the person he loves and marry a person he doesn't like just to save the company..he doesn't have to but he decides to....

next week is the SPECIAL rite?...if it is then we have to wait another week for Epi 19...awww that's like forever..i wish i can watch it right now...but there's no way i can...ZS is gonna finally express how he feel for XQ in Epi 19...and whoa i can't wait...

i think the speical is just going to show NG scenes aand all the actors on gonna come on the speical and discuss about the acting and their expierece and they may play some games and just talk but i dont know how long its gonna be does anyone know????? please answer.....OMG ok back to my loads of homeowkr its 913 and i still have a lot to do aha

TT^TTT i feel so sad for Ah Jin in the preview of eps 19 gosh ........... XQ decides to date him and then breaks his heart again gosh it feel so sorry for him it pretty sad

but yay i can't wait for the last ep

yeah.. i feel so bad for AJ too.. i mean his "dream" finally comes true when XQ gives him a chance.. then its all ruined.. tears. hes so sweet. i think she's having a great time because her friends were there. i guess she feels comfortable, but too bad she doesn't feel the same way as AJ.. but then again.. ZS and XQ are made for each other

Poor AJ .. all he can do is just wish ZS n XQ at the end ..

That Ms Bai ..they way she talk ..I really cannot stand her ...her voice, the yway she express herself really bad ....

Will esp 19 include their wedding party?

omg u guys are dying here, im dying a lot.

yeah i also feel very bad for ah jin but like most dramas say "gan qing shi bu ne mian qiang de" you cant help what ur feeling like XQ she cant help it that she likes ZS she cant help it that she doesnt feel the same way towars Ah jin. i just wish that ZS would treat her just a little more nice but he can tease her a little bit in ISWAK II by the way is the really really 100% that they are going to have a ISWAK II?

based from what i see,
he already settle, (settle where,i don't know)...
the second and third, u r right....

m..from the third sentences, he mention that the internet is restored on the 2nd day, it efficient...

m...not sure if i interpreted correctly also...



Yah yah! AJ will have another girl in the manga, but i don't think will appear in this drama...
ZS treat xq better after their marriage, showing his love more. (in the manga at least)
Somehow, zs & xq really meant to be from the start...the sequence of what happened, show all. When xq decide to give up, she move into his family. When she wanted to give up again, he gave her a kiss...
everytime she wanted to give up, there bound to be something happened between them...it interesting.

love really cannot be forced...she and aj just not meant to be. though aj is really gd to her.

Hi guys, I discovered something.. I checked the gtv.com.tw site to see if their will announce when ISWAK ends, unfortunately no luck on that, however I did discover something else on the gtv website, it says the new series Love Kill at 17 (should be airing after ISWAK ends) will be airing on 2/25 and i says to follow ISWAK same old time.. And Im wondering does that mean there will be two remaining episodes left for ISWAK? Since 2/4 GTV will be airing the ISWAK special so what about 2/11 & 2/18 time slot? Could that mean 2/11 will be airing Kiss episode 19 (full 1 and half hr) and episode 20 (30 mins).. Just my idea, I could be wrong.. Since I dont think 30 mins of episode 19 could wrap everything up, there are lot of things it havent shown yet nor mentioned.. I feel that 30 mins just couldnt be possible. If I do know anything I will update you guys.

and Joe is a lead character ..right??

(ALL fans like us are like WT!!!! after see the video clip o.o .. i know ..me too ..but it's Joe ..and he so sweet ..kyaaaaaa)

Thank you alateria for the translation.
As for the schedule of the series, how about if they fill it with something else during the gap period? Hehehe...I understand 30 minutes is too short but this series disappointed me twice so I don't want to have that much hope . Oh well..we can't expect anything for next week other than red envelopes yayy....(unfortunately I won't get it sniff*)

Yeah I think ZS really needs something that can strike him right to the point...so that he realizes that "he likes XQ" aiyoooo...... Clueless XQ has to use Jason's trick actually. Do you guys remember, Jason was the master plan to make ZY jealous, so that ZY realizes her own feelings. However, the person who got into the trap is ZS not ZY so funny .

oh my goodness im sooo behind!!! when i last read this thread it was only up to like 55 something.. lol dammit.. gotta start doing some hw reading.. =x

Xuan, joe wasn't the lead in the show.. more like a supporting actor.. but somehow he's given more frames than the male lead. :/ Weird.

Oh man! Ep 19 gonna be so damn juicy! Can tell from ep 19 that he's accepting that he likes XQ and is already so affectionate to her. OMG~ I LIKE I LIKE~~~ I don't think ep 19 is half an hour only. Bet it's gonna be a normal episode long, cos it's impossible to squeeze that much..

Man oh man! 2 weeks! HOW AM I GONNA WAIT?!?!?!

i just have to say I CANT BELIEVE ITS ENDING SOOO SOON. in the beginning i dreaded this series. but after a while it was worth watching although it drags and drags. but all those funny moments. and the hottie joe cheng. just makes me loves this even more. lol i think im off topic. because everybody else is like chattering about different stuff. so SORRY ppL. im just blabbering too much... so bye

Although I'm looking forward as much as to watching epi.19 I thought 18 was one of the best It bought tears and smiles but mostly tears
HeartBreaking Moments
ZQ was crying in the beginning from the last epi <<so heartbreaking that I was crying along with her
Seeing her so lost and confuse on almost the entire epis.
Trying to be happy with AJ but can't stop thinking how much it hurt
Mostly the conversation with her father and crying in his shoulder after dinner with the surprised girl and grandfather showing up definiteli heartbreaking...
then there were...
Sweet Moments
YZ went to look after ZQ after she ran back to her room crying
then threw clothes at his brother for denying the truth <<so sweet of him defendin for ZQ
ZS was annoyed in the morning when ZQ didn't make breakfast and wasn't there for it. << because he couldn't see her Funny how he bang on his coffe cup and making faces and eating the bread annoyed
ZS picking her up and caring for her in the BR after ZQ spilled hot cup noodles on herself
ZS thinking about ZQ if what would have happen to her in the theater while out with the other girl

The Preview for 19 look tearbreaking for everyone specially poor Jin and the girl who liked YZ... But hopefully this finale for ISWAK will end happily for everyone... that is until for ISWAK2

^ yeah it was sad when XQ and her dad were talking.. =( .. sigh .. YS is sweet and helping XQ .. that's cute =)

ZJ actually really likes and cares about XQ .. as proved in the noodle scene..

i can't wait for episode 19 .. but can't belive it's ending so soon =(

i'm looking forward to the special episode =p i hope there's some good parts to it .. don't want it to be disappointing =P ahahas

HEHE NEW YEAR SPECIAL PROGRAMMES OF ISWAK >>>

JOE BECOMES 'PIGHEAD' HAHAHA

THEY WERE PLAYING GAMES, HE'S SUPPOSED TO KISS TIFFANY BUT HE DARENT because TIFFANY'S MUM WAS WATCHING BESIDE..

CANT WAIT TO SEE THIS !!!

i know this site already! but it doesn't work...i can't see 10, 12part 2 and 13-15..
it didn't uppload...can u upload it at youtube.com??
please??!!

hehe, that guitar MV totally rocks .
joe is sooo hot! :D

2 weeks for the last episode is killing me aready, lol.
the producers really know how to torture us .
im checking here everyday to see if anything new is happening .
i feel weird . >.<

2hours? means its from 10 to 12? haha seems like i've to end my new yr greetings early on sunday!

oh wait, i didn't read carefully it's on SAT instead?!

like OMG!!! 2 hour long! YAY!! Meaning ep 19 won't be half an hour long lah! hey hey, does anyone know if the special will be included in the VCD?

mm. supposingly it should be the special programme next sun right? but i went to the ctv website for the schedule on this sunday and it's like this:

22:00
　 惡作劇之吻
　

23:30
　 2330惡作劇之吻精華版 (http://www.ctv.com.tw)

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

oh and someone said this

:我今天打電話到中視問的ㄝ
那為先生跟我說1/29原時段是播"惡作劇-特別節目"90分鐘
2/5播19集-90分鐘
2/12播30分鐘的惡作劇完結篇，接愛殺17。
所以，下一集的惡作劇可說是一大經典呢！
所有最甜蜜的告白跟情節都會出現了，超期待的

if you don't understand chi. someone posted saying she called ctv and the man told her that 1/29 will be 90mins of the special. 2/5 will be 90mins of epi 19 and 2/12 30mins of last epi. It makes sense isn't it? since it is impossible to finish everything in the next epi in jus 30mins. GOSH MEANS MORE OF ISWAK!!!! ((:

精華版 = jing hua ban. jing hua means best feature as stated in the dictionary. so i think the 2nd part is the highlights of the previous episodes.

so ISWAk is showing this sat or sun? and its one and a half hour?!

--EDIT--

OMG!!! YES!!! episode 20!!! but its kinda weird manz. they could have stopped all the confusion by saying there's 20 episodes, each 1 hour long.

nope by right no 2hour. it's 1and a half hour. and yes i figure the meaning of that three word out. after special i tink they will recap some of the best scenes in iswak.

YEAH, this should be right, since no way can fit everything into 30 min. But I think it does make sense if ep 20 is only 30 min, I guess ep 20 will prob show their wedding and unfinished business. Either way, we'll surely see the kiss scene in ep 19, that's good enough

erm...but it says 90 minutes for episode 19 and 30 mins for episode 20 (last). add together u get 2 hours. they could have stopped all confusion and just combined both and make each episode the usual 1 hour right?

i was disappointed with episode 18 but after reading the posts above... i am suddenly all hyped up again for episode 19 !!!

but 2 weeks is a long time to wait though... but i will bear with it... meanwhile i will juz keep re-watching the preview for episode 19 over and over again haha

btw a BIG BIG BIG thanks to those who put up a direct download link for people like me who cant use bittorrent to load ISWAK... really really thank you...

Errr...so the special will be 90 min long? Are you sure there will be no show of the series after the special??

OMG that's amazing...people call to CTV to make sure of everything hahhaha.......

100% agree

I felt really sorry for Ah Jin in this episode. He really tried making XQ happy and content. Obviously it didn't work out, but I thought that he planned the dates very well and treated her like a Princess. Wish I could find a guy like that

From what the preview showed, next episode seems interesting.

yah! the part when ys help her, when he throw clothes at his brother, asking him tons of question.
it seem like he can think better than zs.

the scene when he was thinking of xq sleeping in the cinema, he smiled so sweetly.

the part when xq and her dad were toking, i was really sadden by her...so sad...she was crying broken hearted.


Now got more episode, so everything will be able to squeeze in.
Won't miss out anything, won't you?

Just watched last ep of DBY. Undoubtedly, Mike He is much better at kssing then Joe Hopefully we'll see some more kissing btw ZS and XQ soon, but I dont think they'll be as hot as Mike and Rainie's . Maybe Mike can give Joe some pointers since they're such good friends.

Hm... the episode as shown in taiwan is actually usually 1 hr 30 minutes including the commercials (just when you dl it, it's only 1 hr 10-15 minutes b/c the commericals have been removed). So it makes sense that episode 19 is 1 hr 30 minutes like usual, and the last episode is whatever is left - 30 minutes I guess. So including commercials, it must be only 22 minutes - at least that's the time for a 30 minute sitcom in the US. I think the Sunday night dramas in taiwan on most stations are 1.5 hrs. That's their standard for that very hot time slot. So, I feel that CTV is being fair.

Anyways, I'm glad that's somewhat cleared up - there will be 19 full episodes & 1 short finale. And what a run it has been. ZS & XQ have really grown and me… and the show spans over 3 yrs or something. I really enjoyed the first half when they were in high school… it just had this very innocent feel to it plus no drinking, no violence… this entire drama is a nice simple & clean image show. following the manga for the most part, I thought, was a really smart move by the producers.

hehe agree with u.... its like... the story of our neighbour JIANG's...
tat will happen in real life...
sad tat the comicker has passed away in her 39..
she is really great and i admire her alot.......

ok i just want to make sure i got this right
so the speical is this coming weekend and its 2 hours long right?
esp 19 is the following weekend, which is a full esp.
and then there is going to be a esp 20 the next next weekend with 30 mins
right?

omg yay! im so happy! that means there is gonna be moreeee scenes that we havent seen yet in the previews. so excited!

Looking at this picture, I believe ZS is thinking about XQ when he proposed that rich girl hehehe Click to view attachmentClick to view attachment

Oh, my goodness this drama really pissed me off. Ariel’s character is very annoying and stupid….nothing goes through her head. Hello!! He doesn’t like you….get over it!! They make her character seem so desperate. When her dad say they should move out she’s all sad and even cry….geeeze..I would have jump for joy. I mean, I know she love him and all but GEEEZEE!!! They really over do her character. One good thing is that his mom adores her.

Well, i wouldn't call her annoying.. Stupid, maybe.. ' only because love is truly blind indeed. It happens all the time doesn't it?? You can't think straight and your actions are illogical when you're in love.. In her case, it lasts for the damn 5 years Her devotion is actually what keeps everyone, and eventually ZS, fall for her

well, you can’t blame XQ for bein so upset….she’s been putting all her feelings on ZS for five years and he’s been a big part of her life in these five years…it’s hard to pull away and forget someone tat you love so much tat easily….it’s true tat love blinds all.…XQ might be stupid, but she is so lucky to have two great guys who loves her….i think I wouldn’t mind bein stupid like XQ if I could have a husband like ZS too …lol…

I’m so happy that episode 19 will be a full episode and that there will be a 30 min of episode 20….can’t wait to watch episode 19!!!.....the date with Ah Jin was cute….he is such a sweet guy…..i feel so bad for him seein him cry in the previews for episode 19 ….tat poor boy …..since XQ doesn’t want him, I’ll take him!! ...lol….i kno tat Ah Jin will find his true love in ISWAK2 and he deserve to have someone good too…

I didn’t get to see as much jealousy in ZS as I expected to, but it was sweet to see ZS thinking of XQ wen he was on the date with tat rich grl and the bathroom scene was cute too….they ended episode 18 where it just started to get really good….it makes me more anxious to see episode 19….ahhhh....two more weeks!

omg i can't believe ep 19 is the last ep. is it really the last one? cause somebody told me ep 18 was the last one and I watched it and it wasn't.
anyhow, i saw the preview for ep 19 and cried through the whole thing, i can't wait till next week!

i soo hope there will be a iswak2 cause this was def one of the best out of the best dramas i ever seen!

I LOVEEE JOE!

i dont think shes annoying...i mean she cant help it that she likes him. And ok if he showed no emotions towards her at all i would understand what ur saying but he does, he does little things that lets her konw that he cares a lot about her and he told her a lot of stuff that he never told anyone. so i dont think its right to say that ZS has no feelings towards her. they didnt over do her character, thats just how the manga is. i mean i would be sad too if my dad told me that we are movign out, after all she have been living at his house for quite awhile. thanks for sharing ur opinon, but if u dont like it then dont watch the drama. ok bye bye

wowowoo this pages it went up to 74 already ihihhi ...... hmm my point of view is ZS character is so complicate somehow .... I can't believe a genius like him doesn't know how is love feel like .... there are a lot of part that he really care for her ...but some how he is cold in some manner ... that's really confused when he already propose to the rich girl & the other side ..... he want to hold QX back ... since he already chose to marry the rich girl to save the company ...then later on he denied it ... then what's was the whole process from the begining then ... I mean is really confused me somehow ....... watching from ep 1 - 18 & everything happen between them ... the way he cares for her ... I know that he had a deep love for her ... but he doesn't know ... that's not really make sense to me at all ...

But is good to hear that there are epi 19 & 20 plus the special this sunday ...OMG ... I'm dying now ... I can't wait any longer

I think the proposal to the rich girl is just the producer's idea I think the manga is more logical since by the time ZS confesses his for XQ, he hasn't proposed to the rich girl at all. So yes, ZS in the manga is not someone who's trying to catch 2 fishes at the same time I think its not too unbelievable for ZS to realize his love since normally one only knows how much something means when one's about to lose that thing

Don’t get me wrong I enjoy watching the movie but I still think her character is just a bit over doing it. I understand she love him and I understand that he is a big part of her life but for those five years does he really actually show anything??? Not really....I mean, he shows a little here and there that he cares but basely that’s it. Joe character is good at everything.....and Ariel’s character is helpless. I know, I know.....this is how the manga is. Anyway, I apologize for complaining.

To Crystal I agree with you .... I think the producer make up that's part lol ......to make drag out more stuff ihihihihi



To Stranger ... if you look back on this post you see ... there are bunch listed things that ZS had done for XQ ...& He got jealousy over her in Epi. 8 & 9 with that beard guys ... I mean from my understand point if you don't love someone dearly & have feeling for that person then you won't do such things ... caring for someone is a way to express your love toward that person .... and it show more in the seies that he didn't treat or express his feeling to anyone ...but he only express his feeling & all things that he has in his mind to XQ.... only when he be with XQ then he can become himself ...

Yap, you can see how ZS treats ZY differently from XQ. I mean ZS treats XQ cold at times but it's only for teasing her...but as for ZY, he is like "that's none of your business" hehe.....

i dunno wat others think but i rili love this drama^^
both joe and ariel are playing good in it
ah jin..zhi yu...yu shu...hao qian xue zhang...
and the film director and the story and the music and all~!
hohoho~~

I guess I shouldn't be complaining too much 'cause I haven't seem the whole episode yet. I just started to watch episode 7. It funny 'cause the more I watch the more I get mad but yet at the same time wanting to watch more. Each episode get more interesting.

Me too. I love this serie so much that I'm literally sleeping in here.

Btw , the Eng sub for Ep 18 is out at D addicts.

Good news everyone...for those of you who are dying to watch episode 18 with subtitle....the subtitle is out at d-addicts. Wo hoooo....

Btw, I think that make sense if they have until episode 20...since we didn't see any wedding preview on the last episode .
However, since this series sometimes disappointed by not showing what they should show...I don't want to have much hope .

I agree all of the actors and actress act very well in this movie, great producer even sometimes disappointed us a little bit . Therefore, they shalln't change anyone for ISWAK 2. Otherwise it will be....thumbs down .

i can't believe this series is coming out soo slowly... its grabbing my attention soo much... i can't wait until the next chapter... can't wait until XQ and ZS go together... the preview got meh more in an impatient mood of watching dis series... its good...

DOes anyone know for sure how many eps are there?
Did they start making the second season yet?
