[Tier 3] Going Seventeen 2021 EP. 31,32 | Best Friends (Patreon)

We get it. We get why this is so many people's all time fav GoSe episode.We haven't seen a single episode from GoSe 2022~2025, and we can STILL confidently say that some moments from this episode will be remembered forever XD It was THAT iconic. Our abs hurt from laughing.

Okay. Been some time, but this one's got some stuff :D so extra stuff first!

~2:33 Just to add a bit more context to this (and you can refer to our reaction to BSS music for this as well) but the entire thing with their name is that it sounds like "in order of boo-seok" (which, depending on the situation, could also be read as "according to boo-seok" or "do something by boo-seok ranking", etc.). That's why they got that line from CBZ that goes " happiness is determined by BSS" to play on the more common phrase of "happiness is determined by your grades". Here too, they're saying school attendance is based on BSS, or that students go to school according to their....BSS. Yeh, it doesn't make sense, but it kinda does in Korean, you feel me? XD

~3:03 An easy way to understand the nuance behind this is to take it as sarcasm / disapproval / out of spite XD. And it's funnier because that offensive tone only comes at the end, and Dino starts the sentence off as if it's going to be a super nice statement toward Hoshi. So one other way to take it is to think of it as "ooh, look, a model student, of all people, with an eyebrow scratch and all, wow awesome :)" or simply with the tone of "so much for being a well-behaved student"

~3:09 this is also very similar, in that it reads like a parent scolding a young child, instead of something a friend would say to another friend, let alone with a smile like Dino's XD Somewhere in between "is that how you were raised" and "who taught you to behave like that". Dino is so smug and cheeky XD love him for that

~4:33 The whole thing with Woozi is so hilarious because he is the only person to act extremely formally, as if he is in a formal, professional setting with other business partners having a serious meeting (and DEFINITELY does NOT sound like a high schooler XD)

~6:39 As the CC said, Korea used to have very strict in-school rules for hair color, length, school uniform sizing (skirt length, etc.), color of socks / shoes, bagpack type, and—seriously—even color of your underwear and length of your nails. Yeh. It's a LOT better now, but the idea remains relevant and understandable to most people.

~29:44 The on-screen text should read "OP / strongest character in the (this particular) universe. Think of it as god-tier character in a given work, more specifically anime.

~41:14 Or think of it as who gives a shit XD

~1:06:05 Comes from two forms of "I/me" which is "nah" VS "juh", where "nah" is informal (one Vernon used) and "juh" is formal. Hoshi's (literally) saying "are you saying "nah" to a teacher?" , as in, how dare you lol.

OKAY that's it. And Joshua as MVP. I dare you to say otherwise XD

ENJOY <3
