@Wisteria44 Ok but it would be beneficial to you yourself if you understand other women and queer people have already freed themselves from the guilt that is still killing you.
The same useless people screaming about censorship under every post also want to censor who people ship in their own heads - a literal censoring board for shippingš
These censorship Nazis will soon start arresting and imprisoning BL fans for thought crimes š¤£š¤£š¤£
Thanks for this comment at @CrescentMoon. Iām starting this now.
Any time I see that QB term from people who clearly donāt know what this term means, Iām convinced I should watch it because itās sophisticated, well written, and went over many peopleās heads whoāre only used to BL mediocrity from certain countries ha ha
the KMT and CPC conflict is a whole propaganda since its lowkey linked to Taiwan
How is it propaganda? The KMT and the CPC literally fought a Civil War over this āconflictā.
The Chinese peasants and workers rose up and fought the corrupt, American-backed KMT who lost because they only ever had the support of a subjection of elites and even then in only in a few Provinces.
The Taiwanese Province issue today, still backed and armed by the US to continue a destabilisation campaign against China starting in the 1800s, is the āpropagandaā more people need to look into I think
Donāt be out off by the bad faith rating or the idiot comments.
Itās a good watch and everyone fulfilled their characterisation.
The last BL from a small studio they did this to, Unforgotten Night was the only one that year (hasnāt been beaten since and itās 2024) getting FIVE Million views a week per video while BLs with big acting duos languished in the hundreds of thousands.
Deserves at least an 8 and is far more entertaining than 80% of the glossy nonsense GMM has put out over the past few years and is determined to do next year as well
He's not "much" younger, he's maybe 5 years younger. How old are all the people on this site that they think this…
I canāt even believe this is a thing on here š MDL is truly a madhouse
People really need to reflect on how their Christian trauma is messing them about even when they donāt know it and keep projecting it where itās totally irrelevant. Just because Tan Yin is smaller and softer instead of being loud and musclebound. Madness š
Glad you came here and wrote this...Certainly an exquisite drama. Masterpiece ā¤ļø
It was really a response to seeing someone else make a useless comment without any historical knowledge or respect for the context so I just wanted to set the record straight a wee bit š.
Killer and Healer is an excellent, complex story about revolutionary queers in time of great social, military and political upheaval. It is made in the same highly exalted creative and literary tradition as Nirvana in Fire (2015), and the more recent War of Faith of (2024) which there are all too few in this category of queer artistry.
Chief Jiang YueLou and Dr. Chen Yuzhi are two good men who have a highly developed interest in the well-being of their fellow citizens, but they have diametrically opposed philosophies on how to go about it, and diametrically opposed personal characters which stem from their radically different personal histories, which is the basis of their ideological clash.
Zhan Jun Bai and Boss Yu, share a passion for Chinese opera over which they bonded and became attracted to each other, but they are opposed in every other way. I wonāt say more for fear of giving away an important part of the plot, but their agonised relationship made total sense, and even with censorship, we understood their constant references back to contesting their relationship in the context of Emperor Ai, the originator of the āCut Sleeveā legend and his tragic love affair with Dong Xian. By the end, and especially the ending, it made clear how they could not live together, but also particularly in the case of Zhan JunBai they COULD NOT LIVE WITHOUT THE OTHER. I think thatās pretty powerful love story arc and something you see only rarely in heterosexual love stories, and never ever see in more explicit BL such as from Thailand or South Korea.
In case some are not familiar with the history, the time period is a very tumultuous time of internecine, wars and conflict as the new Republic wrestled with the remnants of the corrupt, capitalist Kuomintang, and building a country in which the masses of the people could survive and thrive after colonisation, which the Chinese called 100 years of humiliation . It opens with some time spent in Hong Kong which was still under the most ruthless imperial domination, which made life hell for the people of that Chinese region, who only got their liberation from the British when the 99 year lease, one of a number of exploitative land-theft imperialist arrangements secured Unprovoked at gunpoint, expired as recent as 1997. So yes, lots of Chinese people lost their lives during these extended periods of violent colonial occupation and the destructive overhang of the Opium Wars meant to destroy the Chinese people, which was a norm at the time but sadly, outside of historical record is not prioritised in western dominated media.
Killer and Healer is a magnificent, meaningful drama that gets better on every rewatch and I look forward to the next BL from this Director, Sam Ho, which is a little Danmei adaptation called Immortality
You too can find your own joy and set yourself free š¤©
You see why we need to get our Chinese Danmei fans shipping video out before too late?
We can save lives š
MĆ©iguÄnxƬ, biĆ© dÄnxÄ«n
Why do they need to drag christo fascism here of all places, I donāt get it
Donāt let them bully you because thereās nothing in their heads but rocks. How is that your fault š
Everyone knows the regulations and donāt need any policing on what to think
Please rest
Sincerely

Youāre a real Star š
if not they would be well aware of the statistical reality of greater age gaps between LGBT couples than straights, and why that is

Maybe one day I will do my first ever MDL review

How bizarre
