😭😭they were gaslighting us , making it seem like it's not that bad and that we're the bad guys
Man, the gaslighting was crazy back then. But you know what? We were right all along and now everyone can see it. It's so satisfying to finally have the truth out there while all the people who doubted us have nothing left to say. No comebacks, no excuses - just silence. Feels good to be proven right after all that nonsense.
Finally a BL with actors that look the age they are portraying. I am tired of seeing uncles playing teens💀
YES THIS! The school BLs are too childish in my opinion and don't act like actual kids in that age group. But yes we need actual good non-school BLs scripts approved.
And people were saying "Oh the straight couple is not really the main focus of the show." "Its a slow burn romance between Heesu and Seung Won" No this is a straight washed "BL". They should have called this (whatever Heesu bestfriend's name was) in class 2 rather than Heesu in class 2. Imagine being a side character in your own story. I called this bs from the begining.🤡 (The acting is really good, but the director knew what he was doing. he better sleep with one eye open) For ruinning Heesu in Class 2
I hated Cutie Pie, literally dropped it after 2 or 3 episodes, but I like ZeeNunew so lets hope this is way better…
I respect what the show was trying to do in terms of representation, but I personally found the execution lacking. While the themes of marriage equality and gender equality are important, I felt they were often overshadowed by problematic dynamics and repetitive melodrama that undermined the messaging. The intentions were good, but the storytelling didn’t land for me.
That said, I completely understand why it resonates with you and others! Different shows speak to different people, and I’m glad it provided meaningful conversations for you. It just wasn’t my personal cup of tea.
I like how everyone just knows agrees in unison that Cutie Pie was horrendous.😂😂💀
I appreciate what the show was trying to do in terms of representation, but I found the execution lacking. While the LGBTQ+ themes are important, I felt the drama relied too heavily on problematic tropes and surface-level activism rather than meaningful storytelling. The romanticized power imbalances and repetitive conflicts undermined the progressive messaging for me.
That said, I completely respect that it resonates with you and others in the queer community! Different stories click for different people. I just wish it had delivered its good intentions with more substance behind them.
At a certain extent, I agree with you. There's too much emphasis over Joss' pelvis. Like, I already got it, Mark…
THIS. You articulated perfectly what I've been feeling about the show's framing. The pelvic close-ups and costuming choices absolutely feel gratuitous - like you said, we get Mark's virility without the underwear needing to be a neon sign. A more subtle approach would have been just as effective while feeling less objectifying.
What really resonates with me is your point about audience behavior. The show's direction may invite sexualization, but viewers absolutely have a responsibility to engage respectfully. Joss brings so much nuance and talent to his roles - his physicality is just one facet of a multidimensional performer. I wish more fans would appreciate his craft with the same enthusiasm they show for... other attributes.
