Love Design - Special Episode - Tier Special

oooohhh .. me and my partner dont say the word after fight, also no hug.... we just start acting normal happy & fun with each other 😁🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

One of the more beautiful series i have ever seen. I loved their connection and the way they went through everything. Alwwys so smooth. I'm gonna miss them so much

The first special episode deals with marriage mandate by the Feng Shui master; Aokbab reacts intimidated whereas Rin is annoyed. After the new title song Aokbab reacts by nervously playing with bubble wrap while her brothers talk to her. Pad sides with the Feng Shui master, while Chin is on more on the side of Rin. This doesn’t help Aokbab, so she leaves. Rin talks to Prim and Jade and there Jade side with her while Prim recommend to respect the Feng Shui master. Rin asks them if they’d follow him if he told them they must get married right now, and the two don’t exactly answer this question, but their facial expressions don’t look annoyed. 😊Jade scolds Rin for her naughty speech, but then high fives her. Rin arrives late to a dinner date with Aokbab from that talk, and gives Aokbab a Valentine’s gift – chocolates – even though it not Valetine’s day, but every day is Valentine’s Day for them, Rin says and cringes a little at herself. While ordering Aokbab remember the word of the Feng Shui master: the problem isn’t her, but Rin, who doesn’t want to get married. But Rin doesn’t believe in what the master said. Rin is happy that they are together and finds marriage unnecessary, she doesn’t believe they will break up and should focus on the company now. Aokbab is not convinced but sides with Rin on that matter anyway. Later at home, Aokbab still looks stressed – and has forgotten a bachelorette party to which she was invited, so she quicky make it over to the festivities. As Aokbab arrives the party is not much of a party because her friend Lisa was dumped by her boyfriend and the bachelorette is talking to her fiancé. It turns out that the wedding is cancelled – and both of her friends ignored the same Feng Shui master Aokbab and Rin were talking to. Aokbab return from the party from hell to find Rin has fallen asleep on her laptop; she wakes her up then tell her to go the bed, but Rin wants to finish what she was working on, so Aokbab goes to bed alone first. The next day at the company, Tertis recommends her some love-luck spiritual venues, and Vee vows to find her a good wedding organizer. Yong offers his support for the proposal. Then, Rin returns from an exhausting talk with a client requesting many changes, and want to get to it, but Aokbab orders her to take a break and get ready for dinner. At dinner, Aokbab want to know how Rin sees their future, and Rin tells her to keep working until they can travel abroad. Then Rin returns the question, and Aokbab wants to get married. Rin goes quiet, until Aokbab asks her what is going on – and Rin admits she doesn’t like ceremonies and finds them wasteful. Aokbab understands her reasons but wants her to understand hers as well – Rin is still very young. Rin has lost her appetite (a first for her) and is irritated because she brought up her age. After dinner, they both choose not to sleep at home. Her brothers tell Aokbab not to overthink the Feng Shui master, and claim that’s how relationships go – sometimes you are on the same page and sometimes you aren’t. But Aokbab fears that their thoughts don’t really align; Chin tells her again not to overthink this and finds it normal that Rin doesn’t want to get married yet, but Aokbab wonders what will happen if one day she wants to get married but Rin still doesn’t . Pad recommends to talk to the Feng shui master again, as he might have a solution. Chin thinks it’s a terrible idea, but Aokbab likes it. Meanwhile, Rin is talking to Prim and claims she just wants to focus on work, but Aokbab find that notion childish. Prim asks her what the meaning of marriage is, and Rin claims it’s just to show off that two people love each other, and showing off a pretty dress on social media. But Prim tells her that marriage is a promise that two people make to each other, to love and take of one another both in good times and in bad ones. And the wedding is a way to honor both families, not showing off, Prim tells her. She wants her to think carefully: if their parents were still alive, how happy would they be to see her get married. They would hang up her wedding photos to look at them whenever they missed her. This gets through to Rin, and she sheds a few tears, admitting she’s immature. The Feng Shui master maintains that they must marry this year, the earlier the better. He recommends to go where they first met. Upon returning home, Aokbab proposes to go to Kitakyushu together, not for work, but as girlfriends. Rin at first says nothing to that offer, but then claims she has to ask her boss for leave. Well, that shouldn’t be a problem … … so Aokbab’s brothers put their suitcases into the car as they send them off to Japan again. The situation is eerily similar to their first trip to Japan. 😉 Back in Kitakyushu they both visit the shrine again, and Aokbab prays intensely for a good trip and for clear skies, not to win the lottery as Rin jokes. Rin moves away as Aokbab prays with a ring in her hand to let everything go smoothly, before Rin gets hungry again. At dinner, Rin claims she understands now why Aokbab wants to get married, though not completely – but whatever makes her happy she wants to do it for her. Aokbab proposes to go to the museum where their love really began, and Rin agrees, but first, she wants to eat. 😊 Later, they walk through the town, and Aokbab’s feet hurt. Rin proposes they swap shoes to lessen her pain. They come to the stairs where Aokbab lost her notebook and Rin finds the view amazing, while Aokbab finds the view in front of her (i.e. Rin) amazing – then she drops to one knee and proposes – but the ring has gone missing from the box. They quickly check a few places they have visited but the ring remains missing. Aokbab is sorry that the ring has gone missing and Rin thanks her anyway. Then Aokbab suspects she knew about the planned proposal, and Rin admits she has known the whole time. We get a flashback of Aokbab finding out her ring size, which Rin notices, and then then looked in as Aokbab selected the wedding ring nodding in approval. She saw how much effort she put in it, so she didn’t want to ruin the surprise, but now it’s ruined anyway Aokbab complains, because she lost the ring. But Rin claims they don’t need a ring, she fell in love with her because of a drawing, so she can propose with a drawing – and she goes down on one knee and presents a drawing of them both to ask her to marry her, and calls her ที่รัก (my love). They fall into each other’s arms. Back in the hotel room – and after a long hug – Rin presents her with a pair of rings having brought them along because she knew Aokbab wanted to get married. Her voice almost breaks as she proposes to put it on her, and then lets Aokbab put a ring on her hand as well. Aokbab thanks Rin for coming into her life and showing her how beautiful love can be, for bringing happiness into her everyday life. She promises to cherish and protect their love with everything she has. Rin admits that before she met her, she had no idea what love really was, she didn’t even know what it was supposed to look like. She calls her the only one who makes her heart race and her first kiss; she thanks her for coming into and completing her life. She thanks her for designing this love and calls herself the luckiest girl in the world. Then, they exchange I love yous, kiss, undress and love each other. Then, they marry in Kitakyushu in traditional Japanese wedding dresses (note: I don’t think two women can actually marry in Japan) and a photographer takes a picture … … this photo gets shown to Mind by Vee (who apparently works now for Mind Scape, her new company) before they pitch another hotel project. The final scene is of Aokbab and Rin at their now completed new house; Rin is happy that she now has a home to live with Aokbab for the rest of her life and Aokbab is just as happy. Rin proposes to make a drawing of this first day at their home, and Aokbab of course agrees. Does Rin love Aokbab? More than anything in the world, she says, as they kiss and tease each other on the pier to their new home. And that’s a good way to end their story and the episode. ___ This episode made up for the lack of “Aokbab & Rin” content in episode eight and was a perfect coda to their story. The next special episode will be dedicated to the side couple, but we had the good-bye to Aokbab and Rin first. I remain at an 8/10 for the whole series.

Usually when one person doesn't want to get married, there's a valid reason behind their way of thinking. This is when having open and honest communication comes into play so that a middle ground can be achieved. This show really did demonstrate the importance of communication. It definitely was one of the best I've watched (and will watch again).

Best episode ever.. everyone's favourite! I can't count how many times i rewatch this epidode.. 🫣 I love how real the conversation about marriage in the beginning.. that not everything is sunshine and rainbow.. they talked and listen and figure the middle ground for themselves.. being the wedding just for the two of them.. Thank you for the journey with this series.. 😆

I love this series so much. Every time I rewatch it or watch reactions with you, I still have the same feelings. Every time they cry, I also cry. I think this series has set a high GL standard for me, and I don't know what else is going to beat it—maybe another Kaojan series can, haha. 😅😅 Thank you for reacting to Love Design. I had so much fun watching with you. ❤️ Almost forgot the song Loving you - janeyeh

I’ve thought for a while that this series was meant to demonstrate that marriage equality wasn’t a danger to Japanese culture. This entire episode, but especially the traditional Japanese wedding attire, appears to reinforce this message. I also thought that it might be a bit of a statement to China given the duo’s (especially Jane’s) popularity in that country.

Will you do 4 elements earth next or will you wait til it’s finished

Hope your well I’m sad and excited that I watched this will you

This show is so good, I listen to so many instrumental tracks from this GL. The story was amazing, the soundtrack was phenomenal, Jane and Kao brought their characters to life in every way possible. This show really is the definition of the red string theory. Every time Rin cried it made me tear up too, and I also couldn’t stand seeing them fight because it made me feel really sad seeing both of them unhappy. Also kinda curious, will you be watching episode 10 too?
