#engine jdrama

Where two characters who have undeniably chemistry but act polite and distant because of professionalism/keeping up tough appearances but after spending time together and going through things and helping each-other...

One of them just pulls the other into a hug and the other tries to break away but they just pull them closer and don’t let go?

And they just melt into the hug?!

To reward myself for pushing through Descendants of the Sun, and to rest my wrist from the drawing/writing I did this morning, I watched episode 2 of this! I have a couple of screen recordings from scenes I adored, but will I make them into gifs? Probably not, however, I will say that if I were to make a quotebook post for every line I loved, I'd be making one every time the lead spoke! Played by Kimura Takura, Kanzaki Jiro is a charismatic character, with the perfect vibes of a racer! I think he's incredibly good looking here, even when his hair is dodgy, so I'll leave a screenshot I took below! I adore the premise and the direction I see this going, and it's certainly helped by his very carefree attitude!

There's a severe lack of gifs/screenshots of this on Tumblr no matter how I search - similar to the recent Japanese drama Invisible (2022) - so I kinda wanna make some. Speaking of Invisible, I have an old draft with a single gif from that, but I wanted to make more that the 3 I have on my laptop from 2 different episodes. In fact, now that I mention Invisible, I remember my old thing about providing Kiriko tax whenever I mentioned her or the show! I'll leave the gif from before that I intended to post so I can pet two cats with one hand! This is the very start of episode one, so no spoilers here - just Kiriko being cool and capturing my heart!
