Hooked On the Kpop

yeah, he does 👇

If someone were, as a random example, say hospitalized for over two weeks with no explanation, I think that should automatically trigger a special election to replace them.

If you're still able to do your job, then prove it. And if you're not, then you're actively obstructing democracy by not stepping down.

Which is to say, that if a public official were to pass away or into a coma, and their handlers choose to obfuscate that fact, this should be seen as intentionally obstructing democracy.

Duty First, Kiss Later is the new title with Watanabe Shu (I Became The Main Role of a BL Drama) and Saito Ryu at the front and this adaptation features one delicious 12-year age gap.

Based on キスは捜査のあとで "Kiss wa Sousa no Ato de" (Love is Too Far Away, Kissing is Too Close) by Suu-sensei:

[A kindhearted detective in his 40s who is loved by all but constantly bickers with his sharp-tongued, much younger colleague. A sudden matchmaking proposal for the detective takes their contentious relationship into something deeper.] Set in the police station of a quiet rural town, the story follows Takoi, a 38-year-old unmarried detective born in the Showa era who is known for his kindness and old-fashioned sense of compassion. In contrast, his 28-year-old elite junior colleague, Shiono, is inexplicably cold toward him, constantly greeting him with sarcastic remarks and sharp criticism. When Takoi suddenly receives a marriage arrangement proposal, Shiono’s frustration only intensifies. “Why do you always pick a fight with me?” Takoi asks, only for Shiono to reply provocatively, “Why do you think?” Then, a major incident unfolds inside a locked interrogation room… As these awkward adults struggle to express their true feelings, misunderstandings and unexpected romance collide in a heart-fluttering love story.
