(1:15PM) Did anybody else here binge Season 3 last night?
(1:15PM) YES ABSOLUTELY IT WAS THE FIRST THING I DID
(1:15PM) me too
(1:15PM) i loved it
(1:16PM) but not as much as the first two seasons tbh
(1:16PM) Same, Soobin, I agree on that too.
(1:16PM) hey guys, did anybody catch the last few slides from yesterday's class? i had to leave the room so i missed it
(1:16PM) the plot was interesting as always but something about the characters this season............
(1:16PM) Ah, totally get you!
(1:16PM) rly? its the opposite for me i love this season the most
(1:17PM) I mean, all opinions are welcome here!
(1:17PM) i think
(1:17PM) parts of the show this time were predictable
(1:17PM) Who do you guys like best?
(1:17PM) somebody? anybody? please…
(1:17PM) but some other parts were a nice surprise
(1:18PM) omg,,, what a hard question lol
(1:18PM) and the last part opens up more questions but that's how they always do it
(1:18PM) BUT THAT LAST SCENE??????
(1:18PM) you HAVE to admit that last scene was great
(1:18PM) I think I tend to like side characters better...
(1:19PM) @ Huening Kai Kamal: I asked Miss Kim for a copy of the powerpoint. Do you want me to send it to you?
(1:19PM) YOOOOOO DID ANYBODY EXPECT HIM TO BE ALIVE THOUGH???
(1:19PM) LIKE, PLOT TWIST.
(1:19PM) (2)
(1:19PM) did not expect that
(1:19PM) I'm so glad he's alive!
(1:19PM) He's my favourite!!!
(1:19PM) it also wouldn't make sense if they just killed him off
(1:20PM) @ Choi Beomgyu: yea thank you! you're a lifesaver!
(1:20PM) You’re welcome.

(2:04PM) it seems like he's also interested in you
(2:04PM) he just called me cute
(2:04PM) exactly
(2:05PM) i mean, it's hardly anything much
(2:05PM) he's said that earlier and i just...
(2:05PM) panicked...
(2:05PM) you are a big fool
(2:05PM) as long as beomgyu hyung doesn't think that, i'm fine!

(2:08PM) no sorry i just read what you said again
(2:08PM) i wanted to compliment you back and
(2:08PM) sorry
(2:08PM) what did you mean by what you expected?
(2:09PM) I mentioned earlier that we're kind of opposites right?
(2:09PM) yes that's why we are getting to know each other
(2:09PM) Right, exactly.
(2:09PM) do you still think that?
(2:10PM) Hm. Honestly, not really.
(2:10PM) I just didn't think all I had to do was talk to you.
(2:10PM) It's simpler than I expected, too.
(2:10PM) omg same
(2:10PM) Same?
(2:10PM) if i knew talking to you would go this well
(2:10PM) i would have done it a long time ago
(2:11PM) Really?
(2:11PM) And why is that, Kai-yah?
(2:11PM) uh
(2:11PM) uhm
(2:11PM) for notes
(2:11PM) and slides
(2:11PM) it would have helped a lot in class
(2:11PM) not that that's the only reason
(2:12PM) And what are the other reasons?
(2:12PM) i wanted to be friends!
(2:12PM) building friendships and connect more!
(2:12PM) nobody else in class really talks to me...
(2:12PM) Ah, I think that's because we're all scared of you.
(2:12PM) Well, I'm no longer included in that.
(2:13PM) SCARED?
(2:13PM) OF ME?
(2:13PM) You're kind of intimidating?
(2:13PM) ME? >3<
(2:13PM) Obviously not right now.
(2:14PM) Right now I kinda wish this conversation was happening in real life.
(2:14PM) I think teasing you would be fun.
(2:14PM) hahahahahahahahha haha ha really glad this is all online
(2:14PM) is that why i was ignored earlier? ㅠㅠ
(2:14PM) Well, I think the conversation was just too focused on another topic.
(2:15PM) It's the first time you've reached out in the group chat, too.
(2:15PM) oh
(2:15PM) yeah that's true
(2:15PM) i really did need the notes...
(2:16PM) actually
(2:16PM) i didn't expect you'd reply to me too ^^;;;;
(2:16PM) Because...?
(2:16PM) well i just
(2:16PM) didn't know what to do
(2:16PM) if that happened
(2:16PM) You're handling it pretty well now.
(2:17PM) thank you
(2:17PM) wait
(2:17PM) do you mean that?
(2:17PM) Yes.
(2:18PM) thank you
(2:18PM) your hair is nice
(2:18PM) nice purple shade
(2:18PM) reminds me of flowers
(2:18PM) That's actually sweet of you, thank you.
(2:18PM) I wasn't sure if this suited me.
(2:18PM) it matches your face
(2:18PM) looks nice
(2:18PM) looks good
(2:21PM) You know what?
(2:21PM) I'll just come clean.
(2:21PM) wait did i do anything wrong
(2:21PM) im scared
(2:22PM) No, hardly.
(2:22PM) The opposite, actually.
(2:22PM) I've always noticed you in class and even before that, just around campus.
(2:22PM) is it because of the leather jacket...
(2:22PM) i have a really good reason for it!
(2:22PM) Yes and no, but I can listen to your reason next time.
(2:22PM) It's that and also your tall height, broad shoulders, and really nice face.
(2:23PM) you think i have a nice face?
(2:23PM) Absolutely, it's a great face.
(2:23PM) hey wait no
(2:23PM) i think you have an even better face!!
(2:23PM) Wait, let me finish.
(2:24PM) Ugh.
(2:24PM) This would be a lot easier in person.
(2:24PM) where do you live
(2:24PM) Not creepy at all.
(2:24PM) you know i don't mean it like that!!!
(2:24PM) Hahahahaha. Just teasing you.
(2:24PM) Your reactions are really cute.
(2:25PM) Ah, that brings me to my next point.
(2:25PM) I've always found you attractive
(2:25PM) But now I find you cute and interesting
(2:25PM) And it would be great if we could actually get to know each other more.
(2:25PM) I promise I'm more energetic in person!

(2:31PM) I wouldn't want your perfect face injured.
(2:31PM) this isn't fair
(2:31PM) this is not fair
(2:31PM) I'M the one with a crush on YOU here not the other way around
(2:31PM) it should be ME flirting with you
(2:31PM) oh shit
(2:31PM) Oh, shit, indeed.
(2:32PM) You know, Taehyun has been bugging me to talk to you for months now.
(2:32PM) TAEHYUN KNOWS?
(2:32PM) We're best friends.
(2:32PM) YOU'RE BEST FRIENDS?
(2:33PM) I hope so otherwise our last 20 years growing up together would be pointless.
(2:33PM) Anyway, he also always said I should do this in person, but I'm... shy?
(2:33PM) you don't seem very shy, hyung
(2:33PM) Well, I've also been called a flirt, but.
(2:33PM) hopefully just
(2:33PM) to
(2:33PM) me?

(2:35PM) i'll do a much better job
