The Boyfriend episode 10: Last Day
Everyone was emotional and nervous about leaving the show and being separated from the rest of the group. It was because they all felt safe around each other as they formed deeper bonds. While packing their stuff, they cleaned the house and the coffee truck before leaving.
Taeheon was the first one to leave. He thanked everyone and shared how he wanted to come out to his parents, so he joined the show. His words made everyone cry.
The next one to leave was Ikuo. He shared with everyone:
"This project has definitely changed my outlook for the future. Before I came here, I wasn’t as present in my life. There was a part of me that I hadn’t found yet. I think being with everyone at the house has reminded me to prioritize my happiness and take actions that will lead me towards living my best life."
Ryoto wanted to talk to Kazuto before he left, so they went outside for a private conversation one last time. Ryoto shared how he still liked him. Kazuto thanked him but explained that he couldn’t return his feelings because “that’s just how he felt.”
Before leaving the show and Green Room, Shun expressed his desire to talk with Dai. Both of them said goodbye to Dai and Shun and left the house. They walked to the seaside and sat there for the conversation.
Shun, who couldn’t share his feelings easily with anyone, shared a lot with Shun and told him how he felt. His conversation ended with, “I love you,” to which Dai’s response was:
"Shun, I love you, too. I do," and they kissed.
The last ones to leave the house were Alan and Kazuto. They also had a long conversation about how they felt about each other. They clicked pictures from both sides, and Alan asked Kazuto to keep what (Alan) clicked. He (Alan) kept the one that Kazuto clicked. They both left the Green Room together, holding hands.
