i think its weird how they have revealed almost every highlight for the last 2 episodes. the kiss in the rain, proposal, begging of the new gal's grandfather, confronting ah jin etc. i hope there's going to be more highlights we havent shown. its like we practically know the ending already so wat's there to expect?

Oh well, i guess most of us already know the storyline for iswak but don't u think every week seeing how joe and ariel act them out it's a diff feeling? like a kind of anticipation what silly things xq will do and how zs will react. and the sparks between them jus gives this sweet feeling. Both characters have rlly grown on me and i realise this is the first time i have watch anything that only the last 2nd epi the guy admits he likes the the girl but it's thrilling and more precious cos it was such a long wait (: and everything becomes worthwhile. For iswak2 most of us already know how the storyline will be but it's so much of anticipation. Jus imagine Joe n ariel's gonna act everything out. SWEET. I'm dying to see zs showing CLEARLY his love for xq in iswak2. (: and for me i too like the starting part whereby they're in sch the most. maybe cos it's more pure and innocent and the draggy part haven comes in. But draggy or not draggy at the back I STILL LOVE ISWAK (:

Jan 25 2006 11 25 AM
I think they are 21. XQ started liking ZS when she was 16, first year of high sschool. 5 years have gone by, so they should be 21 now

Sweet sweet

Its really fun to see YS ask if ZS likes XQ and ZS doesn't know how to answer

Really can't wait for ep 19.

ZiYu finally gave up chasing after ZS in episode 18... this means XQ has one less love rival haha
don't really tink ZiYu like ZS that much since she gave up so easily and she does not really feel sad... not like XQ, for the past 5 years she only like ZS and can never seem to give up on him even though he shows no sign of liking her initially... really admire her patience...
mabbe its becos XQ determination that made ZS take notice of her and gradually from pure curiousity develop into pure love
this is what i like about ISWAK... its purely about love... there is not even a single bad guy in the show... i mean XQ's love rival all gave up on ZS so easily, without any cat-fight... not like some shows where always got those horrible love rivals who purposely like to break up couples...
its is shows like ISWAK that makes me feel that love can be sweet and pure

Anyway, I totally agree that XQ is the only one who has been able to melt that icy heart of ZS. Before, ZS is so cool and shuai... and nothing bothers him...even if people accuse him or anything, he can't be bothered to get angry because, to him it's a waste of time.
I forgot in which episode, but ZS in that hotel room after their first date...ZS said that may be God sent XQ for him to make him say "oh noo!" and also feel worry.
May be it's also a matter of pride that he doesn't want to say it out loud that he likes XQ. grrrr*

well i mean i wouldnt say i dont like ie when ZY is mean to XQ. i mean i dont want him to be but if u think about it if he is nice to her its not the same. then all teh sweet things that he has done for her wouldnt be as sweet. yeah i like simple stories with no sad endings, and i enjoy this one alot cause the storyline is about love but it doesnt completely goes in to the mushy goshy stuff.
just watched epi 2.. its sooo good... hahahha they have some really funny parts.. which always keeps my mood up..
they characters tlooks soo good together.. they match it other so much...

I just felt really bad for XQ. But, it's parts like the rain scene in episode 19 which make it all worth it. ahh two more weeks...
Hahaha....usually cool people likes to pretend his/her feeling

. I think that's what happened to ZS

. Do you notice when XQ get a can of soda for Ms. Bai, he's actually watching over XQ?
I think ZS himself feels sad but you know for the sake of his dad's company he sacrifices his feeling (which is stupid

).

May be his mind was like this: "Why do you want to talk with her, stupid?It only hurts your feeling

"
And that's why he said XQ is stupid bla bla bla ...

.
haa...true true. he could tell that XQ wasn't too happy about having to talk to the rich girl.
ZS acts so different when it's just him and XQ and then him in front of other people. He always tends to put XQ down or talk bad about her when there's other people around. But when they're alone, he's so sweet and nice to XQ. No wonder XQ doesn't know that ZS likes her because no one can tell (of course, besides jiang mama and YS). I think everyone here is anxious to see ZS get some punishment. It's about time ZS gets jealous and be the desperate one.
Here's a wild thought....any chance this thread will go to 100 pages before ISWAK finishes airing?

anyone think it's possible?

Hmm..correct me if I'm wrong but I think in the manga I read Jiang Mama doesn't even know that ZS likes XQ while the grandpa knows about it from the beginning. Err...I'm not sure how is it in the movie though. If they put it in the series then we should be able to watch it on the next episode.
YS knows and he'll tell XQ about it on their wedding :lool: gonna be fun

applemashi: Yup she always says she has "feeling" that ZS likes XQ, she knows it deep inside her heart because she's her mother. However, she's not pretty sure about it.
Therefore, when YS said that ZS likes XQ, she was surprised and asked (even bribe YS

) how does he know it?
Well you know what I'm not sure whether Jiang Mama will figure out that second kiss or not. Just watch the episode till the end and you'll know it

.
shinhwaluv3r: That pics/scene which is shown on that pics should be on the next episode when ZS proposes Ms. Bai

Speaking about the length of this thread...it's possible to reach hundred til the end of the show only if you post meaningful thread (so that the admin won't delete your posts hahaha....).

how many episodes have you watched until now? j/k

.
Later on in the episode, ZS realized that his dad's company is in financial problem. Then based on Apple's suggestion (

), if ZS wants to date Ms. Bai (which is granddaughter one of the big company), then it is possible for ZS to save the company.
Since ZS is stupid enough in terms of love

, he agrees with Apple's idea

. Btw, to be honest with you I really want to smack Apple when I heard his suggestion
Unfortunately, Ms. Bai also fall in love with ZS on the first sight

. Then...the rest of the story plizzz watch it till the end hahahaha.......
In regards of your question, check it out at youtube. I think Appleve upload it with subtitle.

i have to speak up for ZY here manz. she dint give up because she dint really like him but because she still has her pride and dignity. she did mention it in episode 18 when she and XQ were talking in the office. in another previous episode when she found out ZS changed to the doctor course, XQ asked was she going to follow him too. but she said no because she has her own future to pursue and because of a guy change that, its not worth it.
though she's XQ's rival but i still admire this quality of hers. she did not just follow blindly. im not saying XQ is though k...

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.
omg i just finished watching DBY too and i totally agree that mike he is a way better kisser or at least they have more intesnse kissing but DBY and ISWAK are really different so i guess u cant compare them like that even though i wish they had more kisses like the rain scene one
ep.18 was really swt tho and i think more about ah jin now after that and i kinda feel sry for him hehe

Actually... I guess I have to agree with you guys when you say that the kissing scenes in ISWAK is not as hot as those between rainie and mike... but if you think about it, the story line for ISWAK isn't supposed to HAVE hot kisses.
If you realise it, XQ's character is supposed to be really naive and kinda blur... so why would she even know about stuff like kissing well? Which is probably why in epi 5 she look so stunned! lol
And as for Zhi Shu, well even though he's so cool and shuai, he doesn't really know anything about emotions and love and all that right? I mean he learns everything off XQ in that department. I think he didn't even plan to kiss XQ in episode 5. It was more on the spur of the moment frustration la at XQ's remark that she would find a million times nicer guy than him... lol
The second kiss was basically a fluke right? I mean XQ didn't intend to kiss him lol. I don't think she has that kind of initiative yet and I don't think she's THAT cong dong...
' and plus Zhi Shu was asleep right? I mean how could he respond to her kiss ( did she even kiss his lips?? I couldn't make it out) and make it a hot scene? Plus he's supposed to be annoyed with her right? He shouldn't be responding like that to a kiss... lol
I mean generally, DBY is different because in that, the lead guy is supposed to be this ruffian gangster looking person who's like seducing rainie... and plus rainie isn't like VERY innocent. So I guess it's no wonder their characters call for hot scene kisses...
Lol... but then, who knows. Maybe Joe really does kiss badly in real life too... lol .I hope not. Would be so disappointed.. hahhaha

I think between ISWAK and DBY, ISWAK is more of a sweet and innocent and pure feeling in terms of love. I mean, they met each other at 16 and have been together that way to university, so they can't possibly suddenly become passionate..
whereas DBY, they immediately started off in university.. so i guess in that kind of scenario, the characters in the show would presumably have some.. eh... past experiences.

... so it's quite natural that the kisses are more passionate. lol

Hehee, yesterday I finished the whole DBY. Its a decent show indeed, very entertaining. Right now I can't tell which I like better, since they're somewhat different. Either way, in both dramas, the main leads are really devoted to their love.
As for the kisses, I must agree with some of you here. Mike character in DBY looks like he has lots of experience, like one of the scene where he tells Rainie that he and his gang drove to the beach to pick up chicks

... Besides, in most kiss scenes , its Mike who lead Rainie into kissing, so she's just like following his lead

ZS and XQ kisses are more innocent, though i'm kind of dissappointing with the 2nd kiss, kinda off though. But the kiss in the rain must be super hot because its kind of forceful just like the just-has-erupted inner emotions in ZS
