Compete? For me, CBL far surpasses the quality of Thai BL (with a few exceptions).
Yeah, I know the quality of Chinese BLs is more consistent. But for me, the best BLs so far this year are all Thai. (Sadly, the worst ones are Thai too.) Not trying to start a war or anything. I'm just surprised at how fast the CBL industry has grown over the past few years after a decade of silly censorship, so fast that I'm worried more and more series with inferior quality like this will be released in the future just for the profit.
Somehow I feel more frustrated with Tiw's group of friends than himself. Why ganging up on Qin when they cleary know their good friend is the one in the wrong?
Me: You're gonna die of boredom first.
